"Of course, Mr. Compton. I am James. Jessica and I have been spending time together..."
He paused, putting his wording as best he could.
"You see, Mr. Compton, My passion has always been nature...you know...plants..."
He could hear the nervousness in his own voice but pushed on.
"I was wondering, if you would not mind, if I might utilize a back corner of the estate to put something together for Jessica. I was telling her about the gardens I maintain for the vampires where I am from, and well...she expressed interest in it. I would like to make a small night garden here for her, if you will permit it, Sir. That way even without leaving home, she could see a little bit of the outside world. A bit of my world."
He stopped and waited with anticipation.
