Chapter 281 - Dramatic priest (2)

"Peter, get up. You're giving others a bad impression of me," said Edgar.

 

Peter stayed on his knees with his eyes closed and his hands clasped, praying that his death would be a quick one.

Tyrion found amusement in the interaction between the priest and the duke. The priest was an odd man, but he was right to fear Edgar.

Tyrion grew curious about how the two men had met and hoped that either man would be willing to share the details in more depth than just saying Peter tried to scam Edgar. 

Edgar's lips were folded into a thin line when he heard Peter start to pray. He was losing his patience with Peter. 

"If it is death that you seek, then I shall grant you it," Edgar said, tempted to go through with it. 

Peter's eyes opened wide in fear that Edgar was going to shoot him. "Wait! Wait," he muttered, realising Edgar didn't have a weapon. "You lied."

"We are standing on holy ground, Peter. I wouldn't kill you here," said Edgar.
