Chapter 24
"I will always knock when I come to the door and so will the maids. If you find anyone sneaking in, be sure to scream and stab them. I don’t trust everyone here so you shouldn’t," said Zayne.
Rose inspected the knife in his hands. She didn’t need to be told that she should be wary of who was there since she didn’t trust anyone. Even the women. She had her fair share of being backstabbed by women.
Though Zayne did not once show any interest in hurting her, she could not trust him yet.
"Is there more for why you are here?" Rose asked as it felt like there was something he needed to say or something he was expecting her to say. "Oh! Thank you."
"You remind me of a bunny."
"A bunny? What does it look like again?" Rose asked, trying to picture the animal. She had heard merchants yelling that they had the animal selling but she never had any reason to buy one so she never looked at it.
"You have never eaten a rabbit?" Zayne asked, curious about the meals at the brothel. He had seen a few women be spoiled by good meat. Though, it wasn’t Graham who did it but the customers who wanted to sleep with them.
Rose shook her head. Why would Graham feed her rabbit? That was left for himself or his customers. Sometimes he would have her sit before him as he ate because he liked looking at her but her head was always lowered.
There were animals at the back of the brothel but they were mostly horses, chickens, and a few ducks.
