She chooses to stay [unedited]

"Wait!" Mira screamed more from instinct than from logic "Wait, Marus"

" Yes" - Surprised incubus answered reappearing immediately " I was sure that our conversation is ended, What do you want Paladin? More guards? Better clothes? Little fuck before you leave? " Marus analyzed every inch of Mira's body to understand her intention and he couldn't... Suddenly he understood. That's what he liked in the paladin. Demon had so many women in so many ways that he always knew how his next **** in training will react. But Mira was different, She is unpredictable and her next words proved that

" I want to stay " Mira whispered weakly "I want to stay" She repeated confidently " Stay not as a **** but as an ambassador, to try and negotiate capitulation" On the last word she lowered her gaze. It was painful to admit defeat of her kingdom but it was true

" Negotiate capitulation?" Marus smiles " I never heard that the king singed a capitulation, why you want to take role of something that you have no right to?"

" I can be sure that king will sign capitulation in the following months or even earlier. I know him very well to say that. Also, I can predict what he will accept and what will be worse than war to the last soldier for him" Pride returned to Mira, she discussed state affairs with self respect like she wasn't naked but dressed rich dress of diplomat "Finally I am sure that he would let me to take that role. Are you interested in negotiations or not?"

Marus delayed an answer. That was a complex matter, he planned to not enter negotiations with the king, but such way could be indeed better. Swift peace could let him to launch surprise attack om Taracus, demon of Wroth, he could get most valuable women without risking that his idiotic slaves will maim them and last, but not least, such negotiation gave a good chance to conquer Mira
" Good, you are an ambassador, you will be escorted to your quarters. I will come to you with my demand after I get reports from my spies and generals" Marus vanished once again to decide on his demands, while Mira was escorted to the safest tower of the castle
