"Twice as much?" Her heart sinks. Nero's smile is dreadful; it makes Eponine's insides all twist up together. She's not at all sure that this odd man is going to make it at all pleasurable for her. More likely, he's going to hurt her and have her say she enjoys it. She forces a smile. "As you wish, Sir. Such a gentleman as you, I am sure you won't let me forget. You are indeed a... saint? But you make a deal with the devil."
She cuts herself off though as she's pulled into his embrace. To her credit, she fights back the urge to push away, to hit out. She lets him pull her close, to whisper at her.
"I... I want to go with Nadine. If she'll have me. Where to, I don't know, but I trust her. Where will you go?"
She bites her lip; does she tell him?
"There's a place we can go whenever we like. It's the Horizon. If you close your eyes and think on it, you can go. I'm rich there. I have a whole house to myself."
