Chapter 9 by unihov unihov

Does she obey?

Yes

As you remove dagger from her throat and rise of her, she backs away from you still sitting.
"No, into the cell, if you will," you nod toward the open cell. She looks and nods. After you grab the sack with food you join her inside. "Want some?" you offer her some bread, cheese and vennison. She looks at you with doubt.
"It's not poison," you say as you grab some for youself, "see."
She grabs some and backs toward the wall, when she puts down some bites, she snaps at you, "What do you want?"
That irkes you. You look at her with disapproval in your eyes, "This is the last time you use that tone with me. Understand?" Silence. "Do you understand me?"
"Yes," she says meakly. "Good. What I want from you and your kind that came with you, is to be my scouts, possibly assasins, and messengers."
"How can we be all that when we don't know this land?"
"You will learn, adapt and if time comes I will allow you to integrate in our soceity."
"You do know we will not bend the knee."
"I do, and do not expect it. If you work for me, you will be fed, clothed and have a roof over your head."
"Why do you need us, you have your men?" You look at her with curiosity, she has a good head on her shoulders you think to yourself.
"My men are good, but they are known in these parts, so whatever they do all will know who sends them."
"But if you send us, none will connect us to you and even if they capture us no one will belive the word we say."
"You really are smart," you smile at her. You think you see a small blush on her cheeks. As you say that you hear footsteps, you turn around and see Sam by the door.
"My lord, we have found the cells"
"Good, put them all in the largest one, no need for chains this time." You stand up and turn towards her, "Tell the rest my proposition, you have till morning to decide."
"What happens if we decline?"
"Well we can't just feed you and keep you locked up forever can we, you are a smart one think a little."
"What about Helna?"
"Who?"
"The one you sent to the room."
"She is a guest, she will be fine," with that you turn around and leave.

What next?
