I opened my mouth to say sothing but then closed it shut imdiately. What was I supposed to say?
"You’re. . you are killing ?"
"What?" He spat incredulously, "wha- how did you even co up with that thought?"
I leaned back and shrugged. "You said that this Genevieve would have to die and a new one would co and have to take her place. So I thought you were talking about getting rid of ."
He sighed and looked down for a second before looking back at and taking my face in his hands. "No My naive, Genevieve. I am not talking about killing you. I am talking about avenging yourself."
"?" I repeated and pointed to myself with a finger. I scoffed. "I have nothing right now, Tristan. I do not have a crown over my head. People must think that I am dead because I am neither in Astria nor in lenmore. My sisters must have not asked about till now and as for my father, he denounced as a first thing he could do when problems were faced."
He smirked, "I do not have a Crown over my head yet have you ever seen soone in this place disrespect ?"
I had always notice did but I had never really thought about it. He was always address as sir Tristan which ant that he did have quite a bit of status in this Kingdom.
"Yes." I nodded to him, a bit dazed. I had seen that.
He held my stare, "Exactly. You do not need a Crown on your head to have people respect you."
"What do I do then?" I asked him sincerely. If he had brought so far and told so many things that did make sense and I wanted him to lead for would as well.
"Now cos the second thing that I brought you to the dungeons for," he held out his hand and I placed my hand in his. He stood up and walked back to the prison cell, "which is avenging you." He completed inside step as soon as he entered the prison cell making see what was inside it.
I stepped back imdiately.
I was out of the cell and Tristan walked out of it with questioning eyes. "what’s wrong?"
"What’s wrong?" I repeated with an innocent expression before the furious one took its place. "How could you put in a place like that? Do you know what they did to ?"
"I am aware." Ca his soft reply.
"Are you?!" I scread at him! "Because if you did then you would never put back in a place together with them!" I pointed to the cell. How dare he put in place with them. How dare you even try to—
"You misunderstand—’
"I misunderstand?" I repeated, "you missunderstand what they did to ! You missunderstand what that took from —"
"Then kill them."
" . . "
"Go ahead," he said and I look for any kind of expression that would remotely related to joking or mocking, "Kill them Genevieve. Avenger yourself."
When I did not answer he continued, "you thought that you did not have the power to avenge yourself then here I am giving it to you. If you cannot take it yourself then take it from ."
" I. . Kill them?" I repeated in a small whisper. I was afraid to say the word out loud. He wanted to kill them?
He nodded. "Co with ."
He did not wait for to get up neither he did he this ti hold out his hand for to take. He simply took hold of it and pulled towards the prison cell once again making stand in front of those that I had feared for nights and days.
I stepped back again and almost jumped when I heard the loud voice. Turning around to the source of air I found Kristin locking the door of the cell.
"What are you doing?"
He showed the key, "I am taking away the option of an imdiate escape from you." He stepped closer and took my hand in his before giving the key.
"But you are giving the key?" I glanced at it.
"I did." He agreed. "I’m not going to take a video option of escape from you. I am giving you the key as a choice. You either face your face and avenge yourself or you let it go and they live forever."
I looked at the key again.
"I would not hold it against you if you want to leave genevieve. This this is your choice a decision to make."
I closed my eyes as if they hurt. It felt like he was giving up on . It felt like I was weak enough to not even avenge myself.
I was stronger than this. I still am and perhaps it was the ti to show them that I could avenge myself.
I knew when I have glanced around the room first had seen huge knives. I gulped at the very thought of what I was about to do but I needed to do it. They deserved what I was given to them.
I want to wear the knives were but did not hold one. I just kept staring at them.
I heard him sigh and walked closer to him. "If you do not want to do it then I understand but do not force yourself to do so. Rember if you do this today, you might not ever co back to what you were before this."
I scoffed but a sob ca out instead making cup my mouth as I sniffed. He was telling that I could not co back to what I was previously. Was he even aware of what it felt when soone had taken advantage of you and taken sothing so precious to destroy yourself?
They had raped . I was gone already. What more could I lose?
