Meanwhile back in the Sultan's Chambers...
Jasmine was in the Sultan's arms. She smiled and gave herself unto him. They once again had sex and this time Jasmine was carefree in abandon. She gloried in how the future was to be hers to control; how she had a power that would give her all she wanted out of life. She gave out a giggle in the midst of passion. Not from the rapture, but from the funny fact, that she already had a power that gave her all she wanted, this rock would just be a bonus!
"You were much better this time." Said the Sultan while he held Jasmine close.
"I had forgotten to enjoy love means to enjoy the pleasure of you. It was not that I was better, but that the mighty Sultan had made me better by reminding me." Jasmine said while smiling to herself that the Sultan was so easy to manipulate with the smallest compliment.
"Oh, dear sweet Jasmine. As much as I want to keep you here. You must go to the harem. There you will find Johniee. She will be my new wife with the twilight of tomorrow's sun. You must prepare her in the ways of the wedding and her wifely duties." Said the Sultan.
So, much for wrapping the Sultan around her finger, but this would work as well. This was even better. Now she could take the rock with her and plan carefully on what she must get the Sultan to say and how to take care of Johniee. It really would not have done to rush what he said. Besides, making a wish in the midst of passion might be hazardous! Jasmine grabbed the rock and head out the door.
"Stop! What have you in your hand?" asked the Sultan.
Did he know? "It is a rock. It hurt me while we made love. I am going to dispose of it." Said Jasmine.
"A rock? Hmm, a rock in here? Never mind. You have much to do tonight and I am keeping you. You may go." Said the Sultan.
"Goodnight my Mighty One." Said Jasmine, bowing and walking toward the door.
"Ah, you are the number 1 wife! Goodnight my Jasmine." Replied the Sultan.
Jasmine was now in the corridor headed toward the harem and that slut Johniee. She had the rock in hand and a plan forming in her mind.
