"Wait a moment." The woman named Rizah stopped Zanya and Leon just as they were about to leave. "I think these two can stay back as witnesses, my lord. I'm afraid you'll change your mind later on, so…" Rizah's bright eyes twinkled as she stated her conditions to her lord and grinned cheerily at them.
The lord frowned and grunted before he pinched the skin between his brows. "Fine, young woman. Just state your price and do it quick. We have more important things to see to. These two need to catch up with their comrades quick. Hurry up and don't delay any longer."
"Make me your general." She declared quickly and Zanya widened her eyes and nearly whistled, not expecting that request from Riz at all. Zanya had befriended Rizah in the short time that she had encountered her. This lady is one gutsy girl! And Zanya could only grin in approval of her style – straightforward and firm.
