"No, I don't need you to do anything for me!" I was so nervous that I almost choked, "Don't leave me, don't!" " As I tried to squeeze Leon's hand, a heavy sense of exhaustion swept over me. Suddenly I was lying limply on the table, conscious only of my head. Oh damn it. Leon must have been drugged, and it is no wonder he did not take a sip. Why should he do this to me? Then I saw Leon get up from his chair, and he went around behind me, and took me up with both hands, and laid me on the bed. I lay down on the bed and watched him carefully cover me with the quilt, and then Leon sat on the edge of the bed and looked at me very tenderly. "Listen to me, when I was 16, I was badly wounded in a fight. While in a coma, I was haunted by nightmares. In my dreams, I am trapped in a dark, cold world, surrounded by the whispers of the undead. It was the first time I had felt fear, and yet it came just as the darkness was
Chapter 71 I am going back "Miss Emily, you must get out of here with me now!" Mark, clad in black armor, held his helmet in one hand and lifted me from the ground with the other. "The Prince of Lyon ordered me to escort you to the north!" "No, Mark!" I shook my head desperately, and the feeling of uneasiness ran through me like ice water. Even my teeth were chattering unconsciously. "I'm going to wait for Leon here, he said he would personally pick me up!" "The Prince of Lyon is not coming back!" Mark said in a low and difficult voice, "We failed!" There were traitors in the army who told the king's cronies, and King Nick's guards laid siege to us first. The Prince of Lyon was caught!" "No, it can't be!" My heartbeat seemed to stand still, and it took a while to slow down, "Mark, take me back, I want to be with Leon!" " "Miss Emily, you can't go back! The end of treason is death, and King Nick would have no mercy
At the very moment when I was about to act, Cuthbert actually approached my body in front of me. Her cold hand closed upon my wrist to grasp the dagger, and the low, heavy warning voice of Catheran rose in my ears. "If I were you, I wouldn't do such a stupid thing!" I looked at her coldly, and the hilt of my dagger, already hot in my hand, began to sweat. Just as I was hesitating to proceed with my plan of holding Catheran hostage, Catheran brought her lips to my ear. "You screwed everything! I could literally tear your throat out before you did! But I give you leave to make a request before you die; say it! What do you want?" Katheran's words cut me like a sharp knife to the heart, and I was superficially calm and collected. Even knowing that the chances of rescuing Lyons were slim, I said firmly. "Let me see Leon. Even if I die, I will lie next to his corpse!" Catheran frowned and stared at me
Katheran stepped down quickly from the throne, and she snatched the letterhead sealed with red wax oil from the guard. I saw her eyes poring over the paper, and her keen eyes seemed to be trying to read every word of the letter. "Madeleine raised troops and rebelled." Holding up the letter paper, Katheran said loudly to King Nick on the throne, "The rebel army consists of Madeleine's guards and the army of the Karen family, and they have captured many tribes along the way south!" " "Madeleine?" King Nick said disdainfully, "Just because she is a woman who wants to compete with me?" It's really out of your way!" "Madeleine has the support of her late husband's family behind her!" Katheran said worriedly, "It must be that the centralized management threatens the interests of the Karen family, and they have long had rebellious ambitions." I suspect the plan is to place Madeleine on the throne and then pick an adopted son from the Kar
"I'm listening!" I said calmly. "I want you to follow Leon with the army!" Katheran whispered, "I want you to keep an eye on Leon and stop him having any more thoughts and actions against his father!" " "Your Highness, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it. I always mess things up, as you say. Besides, no one can influence your son's decision! Even me!" "You can! For thou art the weakness of Lyons. I am sure you have the means! Katheran said in a warning tone, "And I have your weakness on my hands!" Your family!" I was stunned for a moment, and the cold wind from the window soon brought me back to my senses. The timidity and uneasiness of my mind slowly gave way to disgust and resentment. "Again?" I said coldly, "You could have discussed it with me, why do you threaten me in this way every time?" Is this how power holders treat others? Very good! You win!" "I don't want to, but I don't want t
"I've come to say goodbye to you! I shall be off before daybreak! Leon kissed my forehead and said, "Promise me, stay in the castle and wait for me to return!" "It's still some time before dawn! I want you! Without waiting for Leon's reply, I eagerly removed my skirt. There were no caresses or preliminaries, just Leon pulling his pants down to thigh level as he stood at the end of the bed and thrusting my body hard from behind with his erection. Each thrust was accompanied by unspeakable pain. I clenched my back teeth and shouted at Leon to stop over and over again. And each time he gave me more and more violently than I wanted! At that moment, I felt as if we were all lost in sex bordering on madness. Having sex has become a way for us to release stress. "I'm leaving!" Leon said to me while putting on his pants, "I'm not sure how long this expedition will be!" " "Then can I go out with you?" I asked quietly, habitu
Before leaving, Kaseran ordered me to be presented with a badge of royal power, which, it was said, would strike any one who saw it as if the queen herself had been present. The badge gave me certain rights, but it also brought me unknown dangers. I had quietly concealed the badge in my dress, as a last resort, not thinking that I should easily show it to people. The guard which was to escort me was that appointed by Catheran, and the whole party consisted of only four men, led by a black knight named Galen. Like the other knights, he covered his face with a shield, leaving only a pair of keen brown eyes to be seen. Galen, who was a tall man and did not talk much, asked me to ride one of the brown steeds in the middle. The three remaining troopers walked on either side of me and behind me. And Galen led the way. "We must enter the camp when the army is camped, this is the queen's order!" " said Galen to me, simply. Keselan was
At that moment I heard a sharp sound like the quick piercing of an arrow in the air. Then Galen rolled over and fell sideways. I scrambled desperately forward, only to see Galen, who had fallen to the ground, draw a short, blood-stained arrow from the armour behind him. He rose, his sword propped on the ground, and scanned his surroundings with a fierce glare, trying to find the man who had shot the arrow. At that moment another arrow was fired behind Galen, but he seemed to dodge it as he had expected. I saw the sword in Galen's hand thrown by him with great force against a large tree, from the top of which a smaller figure immediately leaped. Galen stood in the middle, his gaze fixed on me and the diminutive figure at the same time, as if pondering whom to kill first. Sure enough, Galen quickly drew a dagger from his waist and threw it at me. "Nope!" I growled, and a blinding light flashed across the sky. Galen, who was but h
