"You beg for the man who tore through families without thinking of the consequences. For a man who ripped through innocents. Children. Infants. Unborn children. That is who you plead for?
"A man who left kids in ruins just because he wanted to pass a message? That is who you dare to plead for? You ask me for mercy on behalf of the same man who mocked the queen's pleas for mercy?" Zaffuto asked.
He was clearly amused by the turn of events.
This was not pleasing at all, and he refused to bow to pressure.
He could see Ashton clenching his jaw, probably fighting back a retort, and honestly, Zaffuto didn't want to give mercy to the man. Mercy was never to be wasted on such filth. Perhaps that was why the king made his decision.
