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. It is not possible that we would go into the palace, into the king room and slit his throat as he sleeps.” Stanley stated.
Penn brow farrowed.

“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

Cain had never felt any intense hate for anybody as much as he felt for this brat in front of him. Even what he felt for Vallas was like a tiny flame compare to the inferno he was feeling for this being called Penn.“Are you sure you want to go there?” Cain asked Penn not caring for the audience they were having which was the king and his family.“You brought this upon yourself and let me inform you, my father will hear about this.” Penn threatened.“Is it just me or this whole scene turning into something that is just wasting our time?” The queen asked the king who nodded.“Cain you know better than to bring your personal vendetta here.” The king said firmly as Cain looked around unsure of how the table turned so quickly.“But…” Cain tried to convince the king but Chandler's voice was the one to cut him short this time.“But no

Penn felt something akin to pity as she watched Denzel stumbling back as if him shifting away from Vallas would somehow make the news unreal and change the fact that Curtis was dead.“No, you are lying. Is this some sick joke you and him are playing to make me lose my cool?” Denzel demanded but Penn could see the pale pallor that Denzel skin seem to have taken.“Not everything is about you Denzel, Your son was a traitor, this is about his death which was caused by his actions and decisions not yours.” Vallas stated as Penn paused.“Of course, he was your son.” Penn realized.“Stop referring to him like he is no more.” Denzel snapped at Penn who shifted back. “Now enough of this game you are playing and tell me where my son is.”“He is dead Denzel.” Penn stated calmly, trying to add feelings into delivering the news. “He was a traitor

The crowd was somber, most of the nobles who attended the burial of Denzel attended with the knowledge of why he died, some more than the others.*He angered the resistance so he was killed, His son was discovered as a member of the resistance so they shut him up, he was killed because his son was a traitor…*Those were few of the talks that were flying in the air at that time. The time were Denzel was being laid in the ground and that made the king teeth to grit in anger at the blatant disrespect shown to the noble who died and his living nobles who could not wait for them to be out of the hearing range of the young ones which Denzel left behind before running their mouth.The only persons who were observing the right curtsey was Vallas and his son Penn. The king watched as Vallas placed a comforting hand on Penn's arm and then led him off.“Father.” Chandler called to his father who turned around to con

“Your majesty, I have the perfect idea for what you want to happen.” Cain said two days later in the king's study.The king stared at Cain in surprise, he had not seen Cain this excited since he decided to start punishing the resistance. “I am not sure that I will like this idea.” The king responded.Reflected on Cain's face was the confusion which Cain felt as he did not understand what the reaction of the king. He did not plan for the king to shut him down even before hearing what he had in his mind. “My King, You did not even listen to what I have to say.”“I know.” The king sighed as he dropped the reports he was perusing. “I just hope that it will not waste my time.”“Of course not your majesty sire, I will be very brief with my explanation.” Cain hurried out and when the King gave his nod of approval, Cain started. “You wanted the children o
