The older Konnetti smiled softly, noting the barely contained relief on the younger one's face. She had been in Jyoti's position, more times than she cared to ever tell. However, she would have to do something, for the businessman she had angered had quite the reach, being mixed up in local politics, as well.<br/><br/>"Now, I must warn you, even though I will not allow such a pig of a man to lay hands upon you, some form of reparation must be made." Kalada said, looking over her shoulder at the young Konnetti's words. "Anything, you say?" she said, a sly smile drawing itself on her short muzzle. "What if I were to say that, as a punishment, you will still be be sold, hmm?" she said, now bending over the desk, her elbows now resting on the desk's surface. She spoke again before that had a chance to sink in. "After all, I'll need some cash to belay that pig with. And you," she said, looking Jyoti up and down with a slightly hungry look to her eyes. "You would fetch a very nice sum. However, you won't be sold to just anyone. It would be to someone I know, and trust." she said as she stood back up, now smiling a bit more. "So, what do you think of that, my little pet?" she said, tilting her head a bit to the side, waiting for her answer.
