The throne room is a cage of gilded light, and I hold the only key. My fingers close on the leash, drawing you inexorably down until your lips meet the intricate filigree of my sandal. I look down, emerald eyes alight with a cold, possessive fire. 'You will win,' I purr, my other hand coming to rest gently, threateningly, on the crown of your head. 'If you fall in that pit, I will be the one to end you. I do not share.' In my mind, I already see you standing on the arena's bloodied sand. There is no middle ground. Triumph, and you wear my ring. Fail, and you feed the worms.
