When Zeke saw the red marks around her neck, his reaction was more or less the same as Eren's.
Just worse.
[Name] cringed as she heard Zeke's rubber boot slam against Floch's knees again.
Unlike, Eren, no one had a say against Zeke... Well no one except for her, so Jean, Mikasa, Eren, and her all had to stand in silence as Zeke continued to demolish the already broken-down man.
After a particularly horrible crushing noise, she decided to intervene.
"Zeke that's enough." she said carefully at first, but he didn't listen. Simply continuing to throw blow after blow.
"I said that's enough!" she commanded her voice booming throughout the room, and Zeke let out a heavy breath before wiping Floch's blood of his face, with his sleeve.
"He dared lay hands on you." Zeke heaved. "He tried to take advantage of you, and you want him to live?!"
"Of course not." she said. "But his men are coming, so we have two options, you either let them take him back, or kill him and risk war with Slava."
Zeke's cold eyes looked at the bloody, sobbing man and then looked back at her, one last time, before spitting at him.
"Eren, Kirschtein. Take him down to the dungeon, the guards are busy securing the rest of the castle, I have to go see Pieck." he turned back to Mikasa. "Thank you... for saving my wife, I'll make sure your risk and sacrifice is rewarded."
Mikasa bowed wordlessly, and Zeke was out of the room without another word.
"Dear God," Jean mumbled as he began to lift Floch up from the floor. "No offense your majesty, you should've let him finish this man off. He won't make it though the night."
She crossed her arms over her chest.
"If he dies I want his head put on a spike in front of the castle. Show these men what they're fighting for."
Zeke had a very different idea.
When the rest of Floch's soldiers arrived he stood at the top of the drawbridge with a bloody Floch on his knees.
"Is this your fearless leader?" Zeke yelled at the armed men below them. "Tell your King, that this is what I think about his attempt to take my home, capture my wife and my people!"
With those last words, his sword went down on the man's neck and [Name] had to look away as he went down on the man's neck again and again. Until Zeke could lift Floch's head up in the air and throw it at the men below them.
