Chapter 13: A Punch for Every Insult
Tobin walked out of the dark with his hands open at his sides.
Nobody spoke.
The lantern hissed on its hook, and a sack of grain settled with a soft thump.
"Is it true?" he said to Corradin. "All of it?"
"Yes."
"You let me think you wanted my wife."
"I let you think many things."
Tobin nodded slowly.
"Stand up," he said.
Corradin was already standing.
He put his hands behind his back and lifted his chin.
"Tobin," I said.
"Not yet, love."
He stepped in and hit the prince in the mouth with his right fist, because his left arm was still bound to his chest.
Corradin's head snapped sideways.
He did not lift a hand.
"That one is for calling my wife a field," Tobin said.
"A treaty," Corradin said thickly. He spat red onto the floor. "I corrected myself at the time."
Tobin hit him again, lower, under the ribs.
