He would not tolerate anyone showing disrespecting his mother or his sister. He was going to fillet this woman to teach her that lesson. He would remove her liver with his bare hands for even implying that his wife was anything other than beautiful.
“You speak of my women like that?” He watched carefully as she circled him. “You speak of them while your men would rather lay with other men and animals before they would touch one of your women.” He had heard the rumors, he doubted there was anyone left that had not. Men being with men, it wasn’t something he thought of, but he had known it to happen. But animals? That was just repulsive.
