    Summary

    Guan Ping looks up at the general, trying to equal the ferocity of his gaze. "You want us to whore ourselves out to you? I should have expected as much villainy from the men of Wei!"

    "It's a reasonable offer, don't you think? A few hours' use of you and your brother, in exchange for your father's peace of mind – is that not a worthwhile trade?" Xiahou Dun looks down at the young man, then glances across to Guan Suo. "Or do you value your pride more than your father?"

    Summary

    As he approached the tent, there was another crashing noise, a strangled grunt, and the sound of Gan Ning's brash laughter. They were making so much noise, it was a wonder the rest of the camp wasn't awake and on their way to complain. Perhaps Gan Ning's reputation was keeping them all at bay; the soldiers might be impressed by all his posturing and pirate stories, but Lu Meng was having none of it.

    Summary

    Sun Jian was at least twice his age, and too powerful a man to trifle with; in the light of day Zhou Yu would have been the first to advise against such a dalliance.

    Summary

    He struggles as Xiahou Dun chains him up to the wall, thrashing and writhing so much that the general has to use the weight of his body to keep the young man in place until the manacles have snapped shut. "Villain!" Ma Chao cries over his shoulder towards the King of Wei. "Traitor! Do what you will, Ma Chao will never yield to the likes of you!"

    Summary

    "Whatever talents you have, they're evidently not strategic in nature…" Sima Yi laughed, an awful, frightening sound that sent a chill through Ma Su's flesh. More frightening still was the slow, careful motion of those metal claws, stroking over the skin of Ma Su's cheek and mouth. The young man instinctively licked his lips, and shuddered at the touch of cold metal against his tongue. His shudder earned another unnerving laugh from his captor. "Perhaps your master simply keeps you around to entertain him?"
