Temptation and Salvation

Description:

Amon fascinated her in a way no other politician of the Republic did. There was talk that he was part of some extremist group of revolutionists. Not that anyone could prove it.
He was also the only politician who did not care about her.

Her liveliness echoed in his hollow heart.

“Are you asking me if a collection of signatures from former whores managed to set you free?"
"Yes."
"Of course not. " Her laugh was hollow. She leaned forward.
Her gaze sliced through him. "The Avatar's support did."

“I warned you.” Tonraqs said eerily calm. “Do not go near my daughter.“
