“What!” Rima and Stanley asked at the same time.
“We have a traitor…” Penn started to repeat with a roll of her eyes, she knew that when she came to the conclusion too that it was hard for her to comprehend that the resistance has been infiltrated but the couple in front of her both wore matching disbelief and it was too identical for Penn not to react in any way.
“We heard you the first time, you know that is not what we were asking.” Rima snapped at Penn then when Penn raised an eyebrow at her, it was her turn to roll her eye but she continued her thoughts. “How are you so sure that it is Curtis? I know that you hate him Penn but to pin such a huge punishable crime on such an innocent young man, that is wrong Penn.” Rima ended in an admonishing tone as Penn jaw flapped opened to stare at Rima in shock.
She never expected Rima words one bit. She was not doing this because she hated him!

After all, he had found his place among them and he did not really annoy her as such as he did any longer and he had grown on her, not like Stanley did neither was it like the way she and Penn became friends but Curtis own was a mixture of both and still not as strong as her friendship with Stanley and Penn but it was still considered that.

Unfortunately no. it was like they wanted him and Denzel to try and destroy each other to see who would come on victorious.“Would you act like a grown up for once and slow down so that I and you will provide a united front?” Denzel snaps at Vallas who glared at him.“That is the last thing I want to do, I do not want to provide anything with you, I am starting to think that favoritism is coming into play in the resistance because you did not have any business being here.” Vallas returns as Denzel caught up with him.“So do you, the only reason why I was sent was to balance you and you know that.” Denzel added.“Your legacy is the major suspect!” Vallas forced out.“And your l

“Penn calm down and let me treat your arm.” Rima said as she hurried after Penn just as he stopped in front of the dining room which they never use then turned to face her with the unhidden fury he felt trained on her and the silent boy who wax tagging behind her and silent from the guild he was feeling.“This would not have happened if both of you were not having issues, I get that you were a couple and you are allowing things which should not affect you to affect you now but you both need to sort yourselves out because the resistance is not a place for brats.” Penn snaps at Rima and gestured at Stanley with her arm that was injured before the Pain hits her again and she groaned as she used her other hand to support it.“Let me help.” Rima rushed forward but Penn shouted.“I do not need your help, I do not want it too, either from you too.” Penn yelled at Stanley. “Just get over what is mak

Penn waited for three heartbeats before the pandemonium she was expecting happened.“You must be crazy this time around.” Stanley thundered.“I wondered what was wrong with him when he detached himself from Rima crime and betrayal, now I can see that he did not detach himself, he simply went crazy.” Curtis exclaimed.“And you support this?” Denzel asked Vallas who shrugged, he presented the very picture of unburdened.“Of course I do, it will take care of the Resistance chief problem which is the king.” Vallas smiled as Denzel tightened his fists.“He is just as crazy as you.” Denzel realized.“Thanks.” Penn and Vallas replied at the same time.“Penn, be serious.

“I think you need to start from the start.” The queen said with her chest pounding. The king could not die, not yet. She still needed to kill the crown prince and make Lance the crown Prince.This was all Cain fault, if he had killed the prince then she would not have felt anything, she would not have done anything other than to sit still and wait for this to happen but it cannot because she will be left with Nothing. The Crown Prince no longer listened to her anymore, not since he came back to realized how many people she had disposed of since his edict. He had refused to listen to her since then or even to be in the same room with her, claiming that the sight of her makes him sick and he was repulsed that she was his mother… that was what he said while he was in the king’s presence but the queen knew what Chandler was referring to.“The resistance are planning on attacking the king today and Curtis shared this

Curtis realized too late what the queen might have wanted, the woman replaced her husband with her son, and she would not have done that if she wanted to son to be alive. With that thought, Curtis lunged forward, hoping to sink the knife into the Prince's chest but the Prince disarmed him within a flash.“Thank you for the weapon. Needed it.” Chandler smiled at Curtis who backed away from the Prince in shock.“That is one of the most foolish you have ever done.” Penn growled at Curtis making her voice deeper so that the Prince will not realize that it was her and still she saw the way the Prince's body jerked at her voice like he was recognized who was talking. It was a good thing that Penn tied her head and covered half of her face just like the rest of the resistance.“Thank you for believing in my ability, it is nice when your enemies know what you are capable of.” Chandler grinned towards the direction of

“Did the Prince give you a blow to the head that I somehow did not see?” Stanley asked Penn who rolled her eyes.“I am serious, those who run will be the first to be captured and taken in for questioning. Dispose all your weapons here and let’s go trade the horses for a wagon then rent a night at the inn and after that, we go out and mingle with other in the crowd, maybe grab a wench or two per person and have fun. After all, the reason we are here is because Lord Vallas decided to visit our home and we need to release some steam right?”They looked surprised at the easy way which Penn solved the problem until Stanley clapped his arms together. “Alright, let us start, time currently is of the essence.” He started giving instructions to others about what they should do while Penn started undressing. “Penn is everything alright?” Stanley asked looking at Penn weirdly.“Of course, it woul
