"You are an interesting man, Herr Alexander. I have been looking forward to this meeting."

Otto von Hohenzahl clasped Alexander's hand, narrow rings on each of his fingers. His handshake was firm, his eyes clear blue and ingenuous.

Von Hohenzahl was a tall man with graying hair, a trim physique, and a round red face. He smelled of cheroot and beneath that a touch of acrid perfume.

Decadent, Alexander thought. A hedonist who likes his pleasures—wine, food, cheroots, women. Alexander also added intelligent as he sensed von Hohenzahl sizing him up in return.

"I must congratulate you on your nuptials," von Hohenzahl said, releasing Alexander's hand and smiling a sly smile. "So surprising it was, to learn that the Grand Duke had taken a young English miss with no title or fortune as his bride."

Alexander shrugged. "I fell in love."

" Mein freund," von Hohenzahl laughed, "is that any reason to marry a woman?"
