"Ah! There's no need for you to show me that kind of respect, Miss Hawk! I'm just a maid!" Her hands come up defensively, but her eyes dart to the side as if some stray Dominant might see them together and think that Riza was possibly acting unfitting for someone in her position.

Things were different where the red-head was from, so there is a touch of social acceptances lost on her. Though it's the next comment that makes her tilt her head a bit.

She says the next part a bit more seriously, her tone a bit different than her usual more carefree sounding one. "You say that, but if you're thinking differently... you're already kinder. Most people in authority I've met demand respect but don't respect people back unless it suits them. You've been nothin' but kind to me since we met."
