" How You dare walk out on me while I was still having a conversation with you, how dare you "
" Am sorry your majesty, Please forgive me "
" I don't think that word exist in my dictionary ,I can't forgive you , Raymond you have proven yourself to be a monster so I think the best thing is to threat you like one don't you think so "
" No your majesty ,I don't know what you are talking about , Please forgive me ,I only wanted my wife and I to settle things in private "
" I see you even went ahead to call me a stranger ,tell me do I look like a stranger to you ?"
" Am sorry "
I called out to samuel .
" Samuel "
" Yes your majesty "
" Be kind enough to drag this man ,closer to me. I think my leg hurts I can't stand up to do it "
" Sure your majesty "
Samuel held Raymond wounded leg and dragged him to where I was seated ,he continued screaming in pain .
" Come on Raymond I thought you are a man , You shouldn't scream like a woman you know and besides I will send you on a journey and want you to take this beautiful lady here along "
" Lady Alice come forward "
Samuel walked up to her and dragged her by her hair ,she screamed in pain , But no one paid Any attention to them .
" Raymond am send you to hades with lady Alice by your side "
" No ..no your majesty you have to believe me I did nothing wrong
" Really , So you did nothing wrong by hitting my sister "
" I never loved her it was your mother who wanted me to marry her ,I accepted because I thought her brother Alexander would be king ,but everything changed when your father gave you the crown instead "
" So why didn't you walk out of the marriage , When you were still able too but you choice to cheat on her with lady Alice here and other female maids at your mansion ,how pathetic "
" I was in love with lady Alice ,my family sent a marriage proposal to her family but they declined I later found out that the both of you were in love but before I could do anything ..."
" She married duke cowell ,I smell love triangle here , You wanted her but she wanted me , What a pity "
" When she finally came back to me I was happy ,I was ready to let Tracy go because I was tied to be in a loveless marriage but lady Tracy here kept speaking about all the things I have benefited from her family , That's why sometimes I get mad at her and hit her for talking way too much "
" Interesting go head, Am all ears "
" Am sorry your majesty , But I never loved her ,I can't marry from a family filled with psycho please your majesty don't kill me I promise to let her go "
" Too late you know the parable that says" it's too late to cry when the head is off" ,let me break it down it means it's too late to cry when everything had gone bad "
' Please you majesty forgive me "
" If I forgive you will it take back all the beatings my sister had received from you , Absolutely no"
" I...can apologize to her please "
" So you love your life but you were threatening to take her life ,how wonderful "
" I don't want to kill her anymore please don't kill me "
signalled samuel to come closer then I whispered something into his ears .he left the room and later came back with a box.
" Your majesty this is what you asked for "
" Thank you samuel , Please open it "
" Yes your majesty"
He opened the box and placed it on the table ,I picked up a tool from the box and looked at Raymond who was still laying on the ground in pains .
" Now let's finish what we started shall we "
" No please ..."
" Samuel please drag him here "
Samuel dragged him to knee in front of me , And he also held Raymond hand .
" You know what am going to do , Am going to chop off your little fingers one after the order let's see if you would be able to raise your hand on another woman in your next life "
" No please am sorry please "
Lady Alice was kneeling down in a corner ,she was trembling in fear .
" I cut of his first finger "
he screamed in pain blood was rushing out of his wound .I did the same to the second and third he immediately passed out .
this was not the right place but I had to send a message across to everyone in the room I called out to liam .
" Liam take Raymond to our special dungeon and please take good care of our guest "
' Yes your majesty "
Liam signalled two guards and the came over and grabbed Raymond then took him away ,I placed my hand in my pocket and brought a small bottle .
" Lady Alice here have this "
She staggered towards me and took the bottle from my hand .
" What's this your majesty "
" Poison "
" What !!,"
Her hands started shaking , She almost dropped the bottle on the ground .
" My lord , Why are you giving me this "
" You are going to drink it "
" What why should I drink it my Lord"
" I gave you three options yesterday but you couldn't reply me , So I sat down to think of the best way ,and I came up with this , You see lady Alice if I allow you to die by hanging , Then your family will suffer a huge lost , The society will see them as traitors to the throne ,and if I send you to the slave establishment , You might end up being a sex tool to a lunatic or perhaps you might buy your way out to just have revenge on me , But if you die by poison that will be a good one No body will suspect anything .
It might look like you decided to commit survive because I couldn't reciprocate your love for me don't you think so lady Alice "
" Why "
Tears was rolling down her eyes .
" Lady Alice be careful with that bottle the content is a rare one it kill in less than two seconds "
" Can't you reconsider "
' No I can't '
" The earlier you drink it the better for you ,I don't think you want to know the punishment I had for you at the back of my mind but I had a rethink because of old time sake so hurry up and drink it '
Her hands where shaking she opened the bottle and poured all the content into her mouth ,She swallowed it from the look on her face I could tell it had a bitter taste .
" Oh yes before you leave one quickly word ,say me hello to my father and lady Benita over there tell them I missed them lost "
She kept staring at me she opened her mouth to speak nothing expect blood came out from her mouth ,slowly she dropped to the ground and her eyes became empty
