I pulled Johannes up as he breathed in and out laboriously. Abrafo stood next to us.
"Mila dear would you like to visit my ship?"
I turned to see a genuine smile on Johannes's face. Despite the sincerity something inside of me yelled the word "fake". I looked over to see Baron look at the two of us. I smiled.
"I will visit your ship only if Baron and my free member Zarfia could join us."
Johannes looked at a thunderous Baron then at a cold Zarfia. He chuckled nervously before nodding.
"That should be fine."
I smiled and looked at both Baron and Zarfia. I nodded as they nodded back. Despite my lax attitude with Johannes I still held my doubts about him. I needed to confirm my suspicions. Something was telling me that he indeed was a slave owner and quite a cunning one at that. The words that he had said under my sword earlier were too heavy with truth. His smooth tongue made me too suspicious.
