Annoyed, he couldn't hide the threat in his commanding tone when Andras blurted out, "our dear vicar is waiting on your reply, sweet Robin."
It was Malachi who said encouragingly, "don't keep the vicar waiting, it will all be over soon."
Robin nodded.
He didn't want to look to his left to see the grim expression Robin could only imagine was on Andras' face.
It should have occurred to Robin that the vicar would want to make sure that he was not being forced into this marriage.
Filled with conflicting feelings Robin wanted to flee the podium but pride prevented him from trying to run away from this torment.
Theirs was an uncertain future that made Robin feel apprehensive.
Unconsciously. He started to fidget again and couldn't keep his eyes from straying to the left; Robin felt helpless as he stared at Andras' massive chest.
On the small podium Andras' size was even more intimidating.
The top of Robin's head couldn't even come near the giant's chin.
