Welcome.
I like this, I like this a lot. The lack of punctuation is slightly distracting, I only mention it because it would be a shame to distract from what is a really promising story. Your creation of atmosphere is very good indeed, and your dialogue is crisp and moves the story on; first chapters can be so hard; however, you have made me curious and wanting to read more. Bravo for this first installment!
I'm very intruiged. I am excited for more. Please don't make us wait too long.
Now you must work to reel us in. What manner of man is your earl? How did this poor poppet come to such dire circumstances? Is he to be rescued by being enslaved? Dun, dun, dunnnnnn..........
A wonderful start to what looks like a long story. I can't wait to jump into the next chapter. Love the writing and love the story idea. I'm hooked.
