The way the girl cowered in the cage was amusing to Ben, to say the least. She was acting like a beaten little rat. Wanting nothing more than to just, dye, and be forgotten. Just like all of the other little pitiful beings that filled the cages that the merchant owned. A snort escaped from Ben as he watched the young woman.
"Ten is way too much for her," Ben said as he watched how she reacted when her cage was kicked. "You've already scared her shitless, there's going to be no fun with her. She'll probably just shit the floor if I raised a hand to her." Ben said as he slightly turned his eyes as he caught sight of the bright eyes that the woman held. They were so pretty, something that he wouldn't mind staring into as he plowed into her over and over again.
"I'll give you ten silver, and you bathe her," Ben said, repeating his earlier offer and adding on the bath for the young girl. "She's quite disgusting, meaning that she must have been in your care for a while, right?" Ben glanced towards the man, amused as he watched him fumbling over his words. An when he tried to fight back, Ben simply held his hand out and motioned for one of his men to pay the merchant. "Ten silver or I walk," Ben said, knowing that just his presence in this stall was enough to collect interest of others who wanted a slave. After all, if a King bought from a stall, then they must have high-quality things, right?
When the man couldn't say anything back to him, Ben smirked. He had won. He underpaid for a slave and also got a free cleaning for her. It was good work for a King, easy stuff. "I'll send someone to fetch her in an hour, she better be clean by then," Ben said as he started to head out so that he could head back to the temporary
palace that he was staying at.
