"And who are these two lovely ladies?" A handsome-looking man greeted us. I recognized the voice. It was the same vermin who Lianne was talking to back then. I almost wanted to punch him. Controlling your urges can be quite a hassle at times.
He was dressed in flawless attire. He seemed to be in his late thirties. A decent build: little to the thick side. He was almost the same height as me right now.
I faked a smile and bowed gracefully, tilting the hem of my skirt. I'd seen this kind of stuff in movies. "I am Daphne Valheiser, my lord. This is my aide." Susan bowed in a similar manner. I praised myself in my mind for coming up with a last name on spot. Only a second later it hit, that it was kind of stupid.
"Pleasure to make your acquaintance my lovely wildflower! I am Duke Vermillian Vernexo." The way he introduced himself made me want to puke. "We- our names have the word V in common," he said seductively.
