Edward pov..
"Please don't die on me , please "
Samuel rushed into my chambers with the physician .
" My lord the physician is here "
I turned to look at him .
" Please my lord step aside so I can check her pulse "
I quickly stood up and stand aside ,he placed his hand on her neck then turned me .
" My lord ,I can still feel her pulse ,I don't think we have much time left please I would like you all to excuse me so I can administer treatment on her please my lord "
" Okay George do whatever , it takes make sure you safe her life or else you will have to join her"
" I Will try my best Your Majesty but I can't promise order wise please let me do my job '
I quickly stomped out of my chambers ,then walked towards the hallway .
" Where is hemsworth "
I screamed on top of my voice .
" Where the hell is hemsworth "
Everyone in hallway ran to hide themselves in fear .
"Your majesty ".
Hemsworth and samuel walked into the hallway,He quickly fell on his knee
' Your majesty am here , I don't deserve to live your your majesty. please take my life "
" Where is liam "
Suddenly the hallway became quite .
" I give you ten seconds to answer my question or else your head will be rolling on the floor "
"One ..tw....."
" His dead your majesty "
" What did you just say "
" We lost him your majesty ,He tried stopping the assassins from attacking us, but we were out numbered "
"I gave you a simple task just this one task and you failed woefully ,can you explain in details how lady valerie was stabbed "
" It's all my fault your majesty,I tried protecting her but I didn't know someone was waiting for an opportunity to strike , Am sorry Your majesty I failed you please take my life as a compensation for the damage the I caused "
" Where is liams body "
" Your majesty it's still at the scene I was thinking that I could organise some man to go get it "
" That will be done later ,don't think I have forgotten about what happened I will definitely punishment you when the time comes "
" Yes your majesty "
I kept pacing up and down in the hallway, just then samuel and two guards dragged a lady who was of the same age with lady valerie ,then forced her to knee down .
" Samuel what's going on "
" Your majesty this is the lady that sent the letter to the castle "
I stopped in my track and turned to look at her .
" What's your name "
" Ma.. Your majesty my name is Martha"
" Who sent you "
" I...I..don't know what you are talking about "
I knew that heads were going roll today but my mind wasn't in chaos anymore I felt this calmness in my heart ,for no reason .
" I won't ask you again "
I drew out my sword and started tapping it on the ground , I could see that she was nervous .
"Am sorry your majesty I did what I was asked to do "
"By who "
" I don't know a lady came to me and asked me to write a letter to lady valerie claiming that she was her sister and that she doesn't know how to write so I helped her out "
" Really "
" Yes your majesty "
" How much were you paid "
" Twenty Gold coins "
I was lost in deep thoughts for a while , Then raised my head to look at the young lady kneeling before me .
" If you see this lady will you be able to recognise her "
" Yes your majesty "
I turned to samuel
" Summon everyone one I mean everyone to the court room ,lock the gates of the castle no one enters and no one gets out I hope am clear "
" Yes your majesty "
I pointed towards the young lady on the floor .
" Bring her to court room now "
" Yes your majesty "
Immediately everyone was summoned to court room both,the servants ,and guards ,lady morgan ,lady Tracy ,Randy everyone was present at the court room , everyone had this questionable look on their faces .
" You all have been wondering why I called this meeting at this hour of the day ,I will get straight to the point without wasting much of your time , Samuel bring in the lady "
She was bought into the court room ,Then samuel made her to knee before me .
" My servants and every other person are present here so be quick and point out the people who sent you "
She stood up and walked towards the servants , They were all standing in a straight line ,one after the other she walked passed them until she stopped in front of a familiar maid then she stopped .
" Your...your majesty it was her '
A bright smile appeared on my face .
"Interesting "
" What!! me Your majesty I don't know what she's talking about she's accusing me falsely please believe "
" Your Sophia right "
" Yes your majesty "
" When they said your enemy lives within your household ,I now understand what they meant , Tell me you are lady valerie personal maid am I right "
" Yes ...yes.. My lord "
" Tell me who sent you "
She quickly went on her knees ,Tears was flowing from her eyes ,
" Your majesty am sorry please forgive me I never meant to do that to her ,lady valerie have been good to me , please forgive me .
" You haven't told me your reason from faking a letter and sending it to my woman if I could remember correctly samuel said you bought the letter to him telling him that it was lady valerie sister ,so correct me if am wrong "
" Your majesty please forgive me they threatened to kill my family if I don't do it "
" Really ".
" Yes your majesty ,it ..it..was lady morgan who give me a hundred Gold coin please I never wanted to do it please Your majesty have mercy "
" Lady morgan !!!"
" She stood up and walked up to me
" Yes your majesty "
" She said you gave her hundred Gold coin "
" Even if I want to get my revenge on you , Your majesty must you listen to this lowlife servant trying to sabotage my name "
" No one is trying to sabotage your name lady morgan ,I think you have problems with your memory then let me remind you , You came into my castle threatened me ,and even asked me to give you lady Valerie so you could kill her , Am I right or wrong "
She kept quiet for a while before she answer my question .
" So what ,I haven't gotten my revenge yet and you are already whining "
" Haha that's where you got me wrong lady morgan ,you felt you were untouched ,you felt I won't be able to harm you right ,well that's were you got it all wrong lady morgan again "
" Meaning "
' You just walked right to the trap I lay for you"
" I can't be subjected to this shame king Edward Theodore you offended me and now you are tagging me a murderer this is so not fair ,I demand to return to my city at once "
" Yes off course you will be returned to your city , But not as you are right now it's your corpse I will send back to your father ,That's the only thing I can do to show my respect "
" You will do no such thing "
" Watch me Guards!!!"
Immediately four guards walked up to me and knelt in front of me .
" Take her away "
" How dare you touch me let me go "
They grabbed her and took her away ,I turned to look at the two women kneeling in front of me .
"Samuel ,take them to my special dungeon ,I will have a word with them later "
" Please your majesty spare me "
' How can I spare you when your plot killed one of my most trusted men and also made lady valerie to be in a state of fighting for her life , Tell me if I were in your shoes will you forgive me "
The smile on my face increased .
" Don't worry we will have this conversation later , But while you are in there pray nothing happens to my wife ,I will kill you and kill your entire families , And even if they are reincarnated, I will still kill them all in this life and In the next one .
