She raised her bound hands to try and pry his fingers away, but he was stronger than her. Prick. He just wanted to prove that he was to be obeyed. It didn't matter if his plan was the best one or not — as long as they listened to him.
She thrashed about for a minute, not feeling adequately able to reply because of the compression around her throat. Words wouldn't come out, just rasped choking noises. Probably for the best. The first few things she intended to say would have pushed him to kill her, not release her.
Finally she nodded, an urgent and insistent motion that pushed her chin down into his hand.
She'd never been around people like this, had never had to learn to be particularly reverent because of anything stupid like status except to Lord Plutt. And even he had so little status that it wasn't like the stories she heard of places like Riverrun and King's Landing. That was another league entirely.
Ren, though, didn't seem to think she needed experience to accept him as her better. He just was. ]
