"It would be better to have them bleed out." A not so pleasant experience for them, yet it would keep her fed until the next fools come about and attempt another plan of assassination against their young ruler.

"Better for whom?"

It hadn't been a pleasant experience for anyone involved. His cousin's betrayal stung deeply, and the young king wasn't in the best of moods. Indulging the fanged followers of his wasn't very high on his list of priorities, especially when right now he didn't feel as if he could trust anyone.
