Chapter 104: Horror {1}
There was imnse silence as Alice patted her horse, the creature neighed at her action, she took so much concentration on her horse.
I remained still, the two knights still holding , how foolish of , everything for this riding seed off, I should have known the scent I got from these dark knights were different, this must be probably her underlings. My heartbeat quickened with every pace, well it would all be over soon, I assured myself, all I just have to do is call for Mint to co to my rescue.
"Thinking of calling upon your familiar?" she asked, still patting her horse.
I froze with wide eyes, how does she know about Mint?
"I assure you don’t, it could get ssy"
But I was defiant, I wasn’t gonna let her have way. "Mi-"
I was choked as one of the knights held
by my throat so tightly that I was raised to my feet, my legs wagging at the loss of gravity, tears leaked from my eyes because the pain was unbearable, it was like he was squeezing my windpipe, I whimpered in pain. His hold got tighter and tighter and for a mont there I saw my life flash before my eyes.
"Enough!"
I was let off to drop to the ground, I coughed painfully, I wasn’t just coughing, I was coughing blood and the horror got to .
"I told you it would get ssy, you should have just listened, you’re quite stubborn or rather stupid," she remarked walking away from her horse.
I tried to speak but I couldn’t find my voice. All I could do was make a soft sigh and whimper, my throat was badly wounded, that explains the blood, she spared no effort to take my voice away.
She squats in front of , with a smirk on her lips. This girl was a monster, I should have known, I shouldn’t have been swayed by her innocent face and her kind words.
"You know Sylvia I originally ca here to overtake the Empire, my dear old father couldn’t accomplish much for his people.... what a man can do a woman can do better" she began.
"But he was in the way of my plans... so an illness could solve the problem, well if it really was an illness" she mused.
My eyes shook in horror, she KILLED her own father, for what, power?
"Everything was in place, I get married to the heir to the throne and beco Empress and then I slit his throat... but when I saw Lord Cedric, the man known as the Dark General my people feared" she took a deep breath with a smile on her lips.
"I must say Sylvia you’re one lucky bitch" she mused. "You have him all to yourself" she huffed. "And then I knew what I wanted," she said, staring in space. "I don’t just want the Empire, I want him too and you..." she placed her hand on her cheek. "You stand in my way" she adds in disdain.
I shook my head away from her touch. "You know I was curious as to why I didn’t see Cedric after his return so I ca to his chambers" she chuckled. "His plan to no longer marry
BECAUSE of you... I should be the one in his bed, I should be the only woman he desires if only you die when I sent the Nightshades after you" she growled, rising to her feet.
My eyes went wide, If I had my voice I would have spoken right now. The Nightshades weren’t sent by the political officials, it was her all along, she has been sewing her seed before she even steps foot in the Empire. I tried to speak but nothing ca off.
She turned to . "What? Shook?" she huffed. "I wanted you to suffer Sylvia, I wanted you to die... taking care of your maid didn’t give you enough pain to stay away from Cedric"
And then I lost it as I ca at her but the Knights held
down, tears leaking from my eyes as I forced my voice to co out but I only felt imnse pain rather and my throat burned.
She laughed. "Do not waste your breath Sylvia?" she said in amusent tilting her head to the side. "You weren’t only just strangled, there was a special powder mixed in their hand
