Melody had no idea as to what Kengetar was speaking, of course, and she didn't particularly enjoy his tone. If he had been one of her people and had talked to her like that, she would have called Broon in to have the man strung up for lashing, castrating, or worse. 

Instead, she stood to face him, saying, "First ... I did not send for you ... [i]leash[/i] or [i]otherwise[/i]. Second, I appreciate that you saved the life of one of my servants, which ever one it was."

Melody actually had an idea that Kengetar was speaking about Frandy. The girl was promiscuous and indiscriminate about who man she allowed inside her ... or even if it was a man who was involved in her search for sexual satisfaction. As she began a slow walk toward the barbarian, Melody called out, "[i]Kapiten![/i]"

In a flash, the ever dutiful Broon was inside the tent, saluting and saying as usual, "[i]Yes[/i], m'lady."

Melody didn't address him but instead simply moved up close to Kengatar and growled in barely above a whisper, "And third ... if you ever speak to me in that manner again ... I'll have your balls cut off ... stewed ... and fed to your people ... before I have them executed as well." 

She gave Kengetar a moment to respond, unsure whether that response would be words or the sinking of his dagger into her chest. Presuming he didn't kill her or simply excuse himself from her tent and from her duty, Melody would ask him to explain himself.
