I leaned forward, steepling my fingers as I anticipated her next words.
Of all the things I expected her to do, I didn't see this coming.
Her form decreased as she bent the first knee, followed by the next. Her expression creased to lines and furrows of a plea.
This must be really hard for her. The almighty Sofia Blake down in her knees before me.
It appears she has learnt the lessons I wanted her to depart with.
Was I disappointed? Yeah, a bit. I didn't expect her to give up this easy. I didn't expect her to succumb that quickly and most especially I didn't expect that headstrong girl who stood and spoke to me seconds ago like she didn't care one bit of my power or reputation… I didn't expect that girl to disappear.
