Her eyes widen as her movements falter, and now that I’m closer, I can see the tension pain is causing around her eyes. I still smirk, though, because I like that I scared her a little.
‘Did you get what we want, or do we scream your secret from the rooftops, she-troll?’
I watch her swallow hard and move ever so slightly towards the wall so that she can lean on it without me noticing that that’s what she’s doing.
‘Fisk, Kilroy, and Parsons. Those are the councilors who’ll be making the final decision,’ she replies a little breathlessly.
‘When?’
‘A week from today.’
‘Fuck,’ I mutter. ‘That’s very soon.’
I hear someone coming down the hallway, and I grab Thalia, pulling her none too gently through the nearest doorway into a disused storeroom, shutting the door behind us.
She pulls away from me with a grunt of pain.
I glance at her, taking in the way she’s favoring her right side now as she shuffles to the wall.
‘Yeith get in a lucky punch or two?’ I taunt.
I’m not sure what I’m expecting by baiting her, but her snort and soft confession that she’s had worse from cunts like him isn’t it.
I regard her for a moment, hoping to make her uncomfortable in my presence, but all she does is stare back at me.
‘Is it clear out there? I have work to do.’
I peer out of the door and find the corridor deserted.
I nod and she sidles past me with a small huff when I don’t move out of her way. She’s so close that I can’t help but notice the way she smells, like bergamot and vanilla. My nostrils flare, and my cock hardens. I take a step back, confused at my body’s visceral reaction to her.
I’ve never wanted to fuck a troll before. My tastes run to curves, it’s true, but she’s got a few too many, truth be told. Plus, she’d crush me.
My mind flashes back to watching her walk across those bridges. She didn’t seem that heavy. Maybe she wouldn’t smash my pelvis into dust while she fucked me. Perhaps being with a troll girl would be a novelty.
‘Wait,’ I say.
She turns back with a frustrated look.
‘Here.’
I hesitate but then thrust a small packet of pain powder at her.
She just looks at me and then at the waxy paper pouch between my fingers, clearly bewildered.
‘Have it. No payment necessary.’
I wave it at her when she makes no move to take it from me.
‘You’re clearly in agony, and I don’t need you keeling over. I’d have to leave your great arse wherever you fell, which wouldn’t be right. I am known to be a gentleman, you know.’
She snorts in amusement but snatches it from me, her eyes narrowing. ‘I did what was asked of me. This is it, right? We’re finished.’
I grin darkly. ‘I doubt it. You’re quite light on your feet for a troll. You could be useful.’
Her mouth sets in a mulish line. ‘No, I couldn’t. I’m a servant here. That’s all. I can do nothing else for you.’
I chuckle as she leaves. ‘We'll see, Lia. We’ll see.’
