"Ah, I am so much more than just his brother, I assure you," smiled Rein, looking down at me. The four feet difference between him and me made me feel like David before Goliath. Even the base of his horns were thicker than my thighs and I wondered for a moment just how his neck was holding up all that weight.
Smiling, I curtsied as low as I could without looking like an idiot or losing my balance. If the Prophet and the compound had taught me anything, it was that when pissed-off men were speaking, they didn't want to hear from the female, even when they were speaking directly to her.
Keeping my mouth shut, I rose up and placed a slight smile on my lips, my eyes looking off to the right of Rein's shoulder.
