Governor
The panic in Gabriella's eyes, her shrills, her pitiful pleas to have mercy do not stop them. Somebody barks an order: "Move! we do not have all day here!" and immediately the thug from the execution squad who holds the nails and hammer lets them fall on the ground and kneels down close to the Queen. He grabs tightly her left forearm, moves it slightly upward to get it in the right position, his dirty thick fingers wrapping around her slender limb, then takes one of the spike and probes with its point the flesh at the base of Gabriella's hand.
Gabriella was still thrashing, but, as she senses, in her panic, that something is happening at her left hand, she slumps on the ground her right long leg, which she had folded a second before, then turns her head left. And suddenly, her gaze fixes on the rusty nail on her hand, the point digging in her tender flesh, searching for the right point. Her green beautiful eyes widen in terror, and look at the instrument of her next impending torture like a prey hypnotized by a cobra ready to strike.
The thug looks back at her for a moment, his stupid face contorted in en evil grin, then concentrates back on what he is doing, and opens his palm on the nail head, and presses part of his weight on it. Gabriella feels the cold iron break her skin and enter her flesh at the same time the pain rises up her arm to reach her mind and moans out loud..."aaaaAAHHH". Her whimpers are a mix of pain and pleas: "ppleeeease noooo... do not this to me... nooo....." Oblivious to her shrills, once that the nail is slightly in, and a trickle of crimson blood emerges, he changes his grip and takes its shaft between his fingers, keeping it right in position.
At a nod, another from the execution squad grabs the hammer and leans down, the mallet just above the nail head ,weighting it in his hand. He keeps his eyes fixed on it as he says out loud: "We are ready Sir!"
