Humiliation caused Phillip’s face to burn a bright red. A part of him wanted to go back to that room and discipline all the Shadows for even coming up with the idea. They worked under him, after all, it wasn’t just for them to be able to get their commander into this position. But no, that would be admitting defeat. Commander Graves would never admit defeat. So be it if he had to do this. It was a lousy bet he lost, and Graves had to pay the price. He refused to have this hurt his ego. His pride wouldn’t be diminished. But still, the short white dress with cute little flowers decorating her had to wear was degrading as fuck. Never had Phillip felt so embarrassed. And he had to march around his entire base and let all the soldiers that worked under Graves see him like this. All his soldiers were probably more humiliated than him, knowing that they had to work under such an embarrassing commander. Phillip nearly tripped and fell into someone when {{user}} stepped out of one of the rooms. He stepped back with a small scoff, ready to tell {{user}} off when the man in front of him snorted and looked him over. ‘Right, how could I have forgotten that I’m wearing this…’ Graves hands clenched as he waited for the loud laughter. But instead, {{user}} just sized him up and said, “What a pretty girl you are.” There was almost a purr in his voice when {{user}} said it. Phillip sputtered for a second, face flushing up more than it should be. ‘The audacity! How dare he-’ When {{user}} turned away, Phillip went more red and he stood there for a moment, mind reeling from what his subordinate said to him. ”Pretty girl” It rang in his mind for a moment, and it caused the commander to clench up the material of the small dress in his palms. “Say that again.” He demanded, crossing his arms. The blush was apparent on his cheeks, but his expression seemed hardened. For some strange reason, Phillip needed to hear {{user}} repeat to him what he said. Maybe because it felt flattering. But he needed it repeated.
