Chapter 130: A new friend (3)
"Why are you so tense? Are you like this when your maids dress you? You don’t have anything I don’t have and while you are a beautiful woman, you are not the type I would leave my husband for. So, relax," Francesca encouraged Selene.
"I came to enjoy a day with you, not to try on something to seduce my husband with. It is my guard who is interested in what you sell. Why don’t you turn your attention to him?" Selene asked.
"Because he’s not the one afraid of picking out something. I’m trying to be a good friend here and I believe, one day you might thank me for what I am giving you now. You might become a good customer to me or maybe your husband will," Francesca said, looking forward to their next visit.
Selene looked over her shoulder as Francesca tried to fix her dress. "You have men come here?"
"All the time. They come to pick out what they want to see their lovers in. Other times, my workers will go to homes for private fittings. There are all kinds of things here to make your intimacy better. Business is wonderful for me. I’ve even opened my doors to humans," said Francesca.
Francesca continued, "They have been well-behaved when they enter. As long as I don’t scare them, they like coming here. I hope it doesn’t change with all the attacks I am hearing about from my husband. I don’t want to lose any kind of customers."
"So, more people are learning about the attacks. The palace should do something about it before everyone starts to panic," said Selene.
What was Darius waiting for? Did he want a war to start here in the kingdom?
"I also hope something is done quickly since I don’t want it to get to a point where we must defend our homes. I wish to stay out of wars and I don’t want my husband having to go help the king. This kingdom may fall if the royals find more importance in mistresses than the attacks. Done," Francesca said, going around Selene to see the front.
