A game (2)
There was no response from the carriage other than one of the men surrounding it coming closer to the gate to speak with River.
River wasn't interested in this person he did not know. Who he wanted to see was Travis. How could Travis come to their home, create all this noise, and not get out when he was outside? This was the same man who liked to speak about etiquette.
"If he thinks I will open my gates for him to finally step out and speak to me, he has another thing coming," said River.
Regardless of Beatrice fearing Travis would go to Rafael next, River was not going to open their gates and allow Travis to come inside and rile her up. They did not need to worry about Travis and Rafael meeting. Rafael was far from being a little boy who could not handle his uncle and once Beatrice was somewhere safe, River would join Rafael.
