We Still Need You

"Mm. I am sure it would have been worse if you were not there, am I right, miss?"

She nodded and Eddrick stared at her for a moment.

"Look at me."

"…"

"Look at me!"

She quickly did as he asked with wide fearful eyes. He sighed and held her chin.

"Being shy would only make him do worse," Eddrick stated and narrowed his red eyes at her, "He is a shark. He will sniff out your weakness. You are of Northham! Do not let him use you as he wishes. Make him give as much as you will give. Do you understand?"

The female thinned her lips and nodded. He removed his hold and looked at the other girls.

"You all understand?" He questioned and they nodded, "Good. Now let us be on our way."

"Misses, you all do not-" The older female had spoken up again, hindering his plan!

"Get out."

"Miss-"

"Get the fuck out of my home or do you want to offer your arm to me? This time I will not miss!"
