my landlord came barreling out of the brothel" rai, where's my money boy" she screamed as she eyed us standing there.
Ms. Nellie had an eye for a good job opportunity and then and there before her she deemed an perfect opportunity. " my lord is this worthless urchin bothering you? I can take him back to his quarters if he is." she pushed me farther away from him. She winked at me before batted her over teased eyelashes at him . She pushed out her ample breast spilling forth from the top of her corseted dress. He looked away at her display" no ma'am on the contrary I would like to employ him ?"
"Oh Yes my lord you may have him.. "She cooed as she eyed the fatten coin purse.
He threw a purse filled with coins at the guards " settle his debts and I will take care of him !" the guards filled the landlords hands with many coins.
"Go get your things from that place "draven ordered. The look of disdain etched upon his face as he eyed "The Black Orchid". The sign dangled haphazardly upon the hinges above the door. The black orchid is A well-known hostel in the seediest part of town. We're only the royal court and a select few can have admittance ." why was a prince in this part of the city?" I wondered eyeing the black orchid with disdain.
I winced as passed may patrons with nessie's employee's upon their arms. Giggling and flirting with the patrons. I felt an extreme weight lift from my shoulders as I ran up the stairs and gathered my stuff. I shoved all my garments into a worn potato sack.
I didn't have to say goodbye to anyone there they all treated me as if I were invisible. So leaving felt empty as my stay there was. Ms Nettie pulled me to the side before I could make my way towards the prince"make the prince happy lass you know what to do when the time is right. Don't fight him he paid good money and he is a prince . He will provide you a good life better than what you could have here. This is the best I could do for ye' lass. Make your dear momma proud and have a good life." She took out a napkin from her gown and handed it to me. " this here is your dowry is the tear of Neptune." Your mom gave it to me for safe keeping now it's yours!" her Irish brogue was extremely thick as tears ran down her weathered face. " go now lass be off with you."
" Thank you ms nettie I will never forget you either." I said as I looked back at the only home I had ever known.
May we take our business inside rather not like speak to you in private. about a matter that is upmost importance?" draven whispered to ms nettie as she twirled a orange sausage-like ringlet curl.
