The Lady's Law Of Survival Novels & Stories

Then, he asked after a brief pause, “Do you think that you've been fair and unbiased?” The beautiful lady behind the Law of Paths snapped upon hearing the question, “How dare you question the Law of Paths?” James cast her a sidelong glance. “The Law of Paths was a position created by the Path. Also, a living being is appointed to take that position. “Since a living being holds that position, isn’t it only natural for others to doubt their fairness in making decisions?” James’ words left the lady speechless. On the other hand, the Law of Paths said smilingly, “Everyone has different standards and opinions about the fairness of a situation. They will think it’s fair if the situation benefits t

"What do you expect this Council to do? Confess its own corruption? Surrender its authority to a boy who has been hiding for sixteen years?" Wren met her gaze. "I expect you to do what is right." The woman laughed—a thin, brittle sound. "Right. You speak of right as if it exists outside the law. As if the law is not what we say it is." Wren's jaw tightened. "The law was written to protect bloodlines like mine. The law was written to prevent exactly what you did to my family." "The law was written to maintain order." "By murdering innocent people?" A murmur rippled through the chamber. The woman's expression flickered—the first crack in her composure.

“So people can just try to kill other people and go free? That’s ridiculous! They’re only here because they survived death, so how could they do that?” Lady Agnes guffawed. “Kill or be killed.” “That’s a jungle rule!” I charged behind her. The old woman moved swiftly despite her short limbs. “Oh, of course! This place is no different!” “Silly little child.” She took a corner. “You will learn to bury that pride before it kills you.” We walked into the massive kitchen. I still wore a scowl, trying to understand this madhouse. I needed to know all I could to survive. Everything counts.

I never expected you to use such a malicious trick and slander my reputation just to make me marry you. "Fine, I'll marry you right now! Are you satisfied?" I was enraged by his words. All I wanted was to retrieve Mother's ring; how had it turned into forcing him to marry me? I drew a sword from a nearby guard and pointed it at Harken. "Either you give me the ring, or die!" I stepped forward with my sword and forced Harken to retreat while protecting Ravyn. My expression was too resolute. Harken opened his mouth and seemingly wanted to explain, but I had raised the sword high.

"I did not think a dead person looked like that” “We have survived so long because we have the Law. We must not be seen, we cannot kill, and we must not let anyone fall after us. The punishment is the final death". "We just did". She looks scared up at me. “And what about me ? What happens to Celine if they discover me ?” “I see more the Law as recommendations. What the Council does not know does not hurt". I pull the frightened girl into my arms, comforting her. "But you have to be careful, because they have people everywhere, even cows working for Strano".

Instead, a woman in a dark green coat walked slowly around the center circle while speaking to the room. She did not pause when Amelia entered. “Species law is not etiquette,” the woman said. “Etiquette keeps you from embarrassing yourself. Law keeps you from being eaten, bound, claimed, challenged, indebted, enthralled, or accidentally married by older customs no one has bothered to remove.” Several students laughed. The woman did not. Amelia sat very still. The boy beside her leaned closer without looking away from the center of the room. “You missed the part about accidentally insulting river spirits.”

"The noblewomen have already begun praising this law, Your Highness. Several widows even sent letters expressing their gratitude." Kiara remained focused on trimming another branch. "A woman who loses her husband shouldn't lose her home as well." Raymond nodded. "Many fathers have already begun preparing houses in their daughters' names. Merchants have even started new businesses because of it" "but there still a minor issue" kyra jumped in " oh yeah I've read this law its for womens that they had to have her own home before marriage or she had to have her name on the house documents so that no one can throw ger out i didn't know it published by aunt"

"I'm really sorry, but I need to kill you because you messed with someone you weren't supposed to." As she spoke, the lady drew a small dagger. Blake looked up in shock at the lady. She was wearing a server's uniform, but her makeup was heavy and seductive. "Why are you killing me?" Blake wheezed. The woman said coldly, "You've f*cked up. There are some people that you just can't kill." Right after that, she swung her hand holding the dagger across Blake's neck. Blood began gushing out of a wound that appeared on his throat.

“Are you willing to go against the law for a woman?” “Are you suggesting I mark a woman who committed treason by trying to kill me?” I snarled, my wolf itching to claw his heart out. “This is against the law!” Lady Margaret spat. “Except you want the crown to be taken away from you…” “Enough!” I growled, commanding silence in the entire room. “I am the law. My words stand. I don’t care about your useless objections because I am marking my queen. I am crowning my queen. And if the Goddess herself wants to try to kill Arabella Draven…”

Then said with pride. “She rules like the moon.” “She listens but she does not bend.” “She is silver blood and steel spine.” “She was never a bastard. She has always been the blessed.” I sat in council meetings where elders argued like frightened men and I ended them with a single look. I rewrote laws that had stood for centuries. Laws that punished rogues for surviving and omegas for living. Laws that favored bloodlines over loyalty. Laws that allowed cruelty to hide behind tradition. On top of it all, I changed laws that gave men greater power over women for something they don’t even have. Women can do whatever men can as long as they are willing.
