Rose worried for Daniel's fingers as they were his life. She was the only one who knew that Zayne was no stranger to cutting someone's fingers off.
"It was kind of you to ask but I must decline. I wish to look around a little bit more,' Rose replied.
Daniel placed his hands behind his back. "I see. Well," he cleared his throat and avoided Zayne's gaze. No one informed him that she was being courted by the outsider. "I will come again to see if you are ready to dance. It was wonderful speaking to you, Lord Ambrose."
"As with you," Victor replied.
Madeline covered her mouth with her hand to not let it be seen that she laughed. "You are talented at sending away suitors, Zayne. Daniel greatly treasures his hands so I doubt he will be back to ask Rose to dance. There are other things you can do to keep them away."
"I am aware," Zayne replied.
