Returning my attention to the boy on the ground who was now unconscious, I took him in my arms, This child had no reason to be abused for being born last in a huge family. Knowing I couldn’t just abandon him, I decided to take him with me when Enzo walked behind me into the back of the shop. “Madam Fenrisúlfr Arkitisk, has there been a problem?” He looked a bit nervous but even I knew this couldn’t be ignored, “I was seeing what this shop had for my daughter only to see this boy working under these conditions, and then have her strike him for not meeting her expectations, surely you cannot tell me I will turn a blind eye, I’m taking this boy with me, and have her fined, then imprisoned, no child should be sold as a slave to anyone, that is barbaric!” Enzo wanted to say something but he didn’t, Instead, he gave me a weak smile and then turned to do as I commanded, whatever I had said to make him behave against me but show me loyalty instead was something that had me feeling uneasy.
