"What can we do? If we go with the original plan it would cause her harm as we didn't predict that this many guards would be present. I said rubbing my hands to my chin and thinking deeply. Then the idea struck me and I informed Scott."Here is what we would do Scott," I said to him but I didn't get his usual response which made me turn back and I saw him on the ground with blood already pooling from his head. When? How? No one seemed to have spotted us yet, so I was surprised still looking at his lifeless body. How come I didn't hear of feeling any other presence aside from that of-""You're next." I heard a voice say from behind me and my heart sank to my stomach. But I drew out my sword as a result of adrenaline rush stopping his attacks from landing on me even throwing off his sword."I wouldn't be dying, not today," I said to him then held my sword even tighter."I'll avenge you, George, that's for sure," I said once more turning to him for the last time.***SCARLETT'S POV"Where
ADOLF'S POV"Stick to our formation everyone, we all know what our main purpose of coming here is right?" I asked looking at them why we hid in the nearby bushes. "Yes, my king," they chorused."Alright then, let's go," I said. It was all thanks to Vladimir, that I didn't die through the poison. One of my men was an ally for Rufus. He tried killing me with that herb he first brought. It's a good thing I found out on time if not my condition would have gotten worse. I made sure that he paid with his life.We entered Brooke's premises and the place was looking devoid of life which was strange."It seems they are already aware of our arrival, Father we have to be extra cautious," Sigil said and I concurred."That my bastard of a son shouldn't try anything funny, because I swear that-""Father, we have to split up according to plan," Sigil said. "Yes, best of luck men, and remember our main focus, do not get distracted by the fight." They nodded and we all split up to find my daughter. I
RUFUS'S POV"Sigil that bastard, why did he have to interfere in my fight with Adolf," I complained as one of my men dressed my wound. "Be more gentle fool," I cussed as he cleaned it with alcohol. "I'm sorry King Rufus," he said and I didn't bother to respond to him. He continued doing what he was doing and this time with a bit of caution.Only two of my men were killed in our attack. I had planned everything so well and it was going to be planned until that stupid Sigil interrupted the perfect flow. No one was supposed to do it except my stupid brother, Adolf, and his members. I was excited and full of confidence when I found out that Adolf was in the woods too. It wasn't hard locating him, given I have eyes and ears everywhere. It was a good plan until those fools bore me at my own game."King Rufus, what are we to do next?" The rogue asked. "Do not provoke me to anger, can't you see I'm injured?" I asked him ready to pour out all my anger on him."I'm sorry my king." He said disap
KILLIAN'S POVThree days and I should hand over my title, that Ryan is a stupid bastard. Does he think that I would be scared of him? Never. I wouldn't leave this title for anyone except when it's time to pass it on to my child. I muttered to myself in frustration as I got to my chambers. It was the third day since my encounter with him in the courtyard. And I deeply regret hearing about it.I heard a knock on my door and responded: "Go away, I do not wish to be disturbed,""It's I your father," he answered."I do not wish to be disturbed-" I said and that was when the door sprang open."It is urgent and how can you be so stupid, Killian? Are you that retarded? How can you explain this?" He asked handing over a letter from Ryan."It says he's coming to get what is rightfully his," I said as I scanned the paper. That fool what does he intend to do now? He stands no chance against me. I said to myself throwing the letter into the fireplace.How did Ryan come to find out about you charmi
SIGIL'S POV"Run you little rat, now you have got a chance to. You have no right to intervene when elders are having their business," Rufus said as I jumped in to save the king."You traitor, you are good as a dead man so stop spewing nonsense," I warned him as I used my sword to knock him down and I reached for the king."Father, are you hurt?""No, son, thank you for your assistance, one minute I was fighting with him, and the next I was on the ground with my knees bent, Rufus, took me unaware," he responded. Rufus was still on the ground and hadn't recovered from my hit."What is he doing here?" I asked the king"I have no idea, but It's of benefit he came to us, alongside with son, let's stop this traitor." The king said and I took stance beside him and Rufus was starting to get up.ADOLF'S POV"What do you want Rufus? How do you know that we were here?""Fate and luck happen to be on my side brother. Who knew that I'd meet you in these woods, oh of course I did think I would give
SCARLETT'S POVI was awakened by a loud noise outside my tent, I was too tired to stand up but I the sound of swords clashing together. What was happening outside I wondered. I sat up and touched my side and Vladimir wasn't here neither was his sword.I stepped outside and saw flames burning so bright with some of the tents on fire. What the hell! I grabbed my little sword by my side, I wasn't a swordsman but I knew a few things about yielding a sword.I noticed that we were attacked by unknown men. "Vladimir! Vladimir! Where are you?" I called out looking around. A few guards were fighting with some people and I was trying to take it all in to process where to run and what to do to avoid these unknown people.Someone came behind me and grabbed me by my neck. I struggled to set his hand loose but he grabbed me tighter. "Hey there angel," he said as he groped me. I was getting irritated and used my elbow to hit his tummy hard. He bent to hold his tummy and I jumped in the air and used
