"We just received news that Ragnar Marshall had been able to kill the remaining three Lords of the Wigglesworth's family," he said."Oh my days! That's a good one. And where is Ragnar Marshall now? How is he? Is he coming back?" She asked. She was so curious about his well-being. "No, he's not coming back." The sad news washed over her like a cold shower. A new level of sadness arose in her. Her heart became heavier than it was. For the past few days, she had been hoping that Ragnar Marshall would come back, that he would suddenly appear before her, there was no day she didn't hope for him to come back. Infact, just yesterday night, she dreamt about him coming back home. "Uncle, but do you know his whereabout?" She asked. "Ragnar Marshall wasn't captured by the Maridonna's army despite how smart they are, he had left Maridonna. According to the message he sent to the underworld, he said everyone should consider him dead." Beocca reported. "Uncle, did you think he would kill himse
When the emperor thought about the fact that Guthred is most likely to be the next emperor after his death, although he considered his request to be silly but he still granted it. Brigitta was soon taken to Prince Guthred's chamber, she was bathed and cleaned up by the maids, her hair was washed and braided well while her finger nails were trimmed. Then she was made to wear a beautiful dress after which she was brought before Guthred in his living room. After the maids that brought her had left, Brigitta asked, "why did you save me?" "You may sit," Guthred gestured and she sat gently. "I guess you have lots of questions to ask, you are living in darkness since you didn't understand many things around you." He said. "I saved you because I like you.""What does a prince like you want with a slave like me? And who is Ragnar Marshall? I heard you make mention of his name before the emperor." "Well, Ragnar Marshall is a terrorist you once fought with. He killed all your children, betr
"Good." Guthred said and went to sit beside her, "Lin, you must understand that personally, I do have feelings for you. Sometimes I think I'm not worthy of you cause I should have saved you since five years ago but you must understand that as a prince, I have limited power. I must never get on the bad side of my father." Brigitta looked at him and smiled, "I could have died if not because of you, I owe you my life. Don't worry, I'll agree to your marriage proposal after bringing Ragnar Marshall's head. Why shouldn't I want to marry the man that saved my life? I could have been dead right now if not because of you." Guthred nodded, "make sure you rest very well, for in three days, the mission will commence." "Alright, "then he lead her inside her room. Three days later, Brigitta entered the house that Maridonna's kingdom rented for her in Jora City. Whereas, the house beside it was also newly rented out and the new occupant was Guthred. He had taken permission from the emperor to s
Ragnar Marshall drove to the suburb of the city that night, he had a land he owned there, he had designed that land to be his place of burial when he dies but today, someone so special to him had died and he wouldn't mind giving all of these plot of land to the person. The exact spot he wanted to bury Brigitta's head had been already been digged before he got here. He knelt before the spot and removed her head from the box then buried it. He stood up sad and depressed. For what Maridonna did, he would ensure their country become a tale of the past. He would wipe their kingdom away from existence and enslave every single soul there. "This hurts." He mumbled to himself even as he walked away from the scene. When he arrived home, at the living room, he saw some strange faces in the room but also saw Cassie alongside her son, Dian in the living room. "Welcome home, sir."Cassie stood and greeted Ragnar who had a questioning look on her face, "Mr. Ragnar, please meet my sister, Lagarth
Whereas, Ragnar Marshall went straight to his bathroom and undressed himself, he sat naked inside the bathtub and mourned Brigitta for hours. The fact that he would never see her again kept hurting him, it's as if a hot metal was being used to pierce his heart. That night, it was impossible for Ragnar Marshall to sleep so he stood and went to check on Brigitta's kids, seeing that they were all asleep, he assumed they were fine. Unknown to him that the kids had marks of beatings on their back. Ragnar Marshall didn't know how to break the news to the kids that their mother is dead. The kids had always asked him at every opportunity that they had about the whereabout of their mom and he would just tell them she will be back someday. Ragnar Marshall walked out of the house like a man that had gone crazy, it was 3AM, in the middle of the night and this time wasn't so safe for anyone. Even when his men offered to escort him, he turned them down. He just wanted to take a walk He kept wa
He wondered if Brigitta would be safe in this house this night. Who is this person looking at him? He then waited for another one hour around the house. When it was around 5AM in the morning, he called his driver and some of his men to come and pick him up. When the driver came, he ordered his men, "I want you to watch the woman staying in this house and protect her. No harm must come to her." After his men had noted his command, he was driven away from the scene. Whereas, Brigitta laid on her bed, thinking about the man that saved her. She had checked on Facebook for Lin with a profile picture of the man she saw today but couldn't find any traces of him. She even searched Google for a Lin but there was no traces. Who was that man? Why was he walking aimlessly in the middle of the road. Will she ever see him again? She thought for hours until she eventually fell asleep. When it was the following morning, she was awoken by a knock on her door, she hadn't even brushed or bathed, she
Brigitta opened the door of the car and waited for the substance in the car to dilute with air, afterwards, she entered the car and searched the man, she saw weapons on him and infact, a mic and a GPS tracker on him. She removed everything, stepped out of the car and threw it away. When she was about driving, she felt like the man's cloth could contain something that can be used to track her so she stripped the man naked, then threw all his clothes and shoes away, afterwards, she drove him to his house.She carried the man to the inner room and chained him heavily to a chair, she also gagged his mouth. Whereas, Ragnar Marshall received a call from Ottar saying that they couldn't find the whereabout of Beocca.According to Ottar's report, Beocca had gone to challenge a car that used to unsually pack close to the company without any visible purpose but it seems whoever was inside the car deceived him to get in and he was taken away. "Nothing must happen to Beocca, you must find him." Ra
"I may look calm but don't underestimate me, I've killed thousands of men in the past," Brigitta said. From what she was told, she used to be a terrorist and as one, she must have killed a lot. Beocca wondered why her voice sounded like that of Brigitta, "even if you blood-eagle me, I won't just casually tell you where you can find Ragnar Marshall." "I see you are stubborn, how about I cut your left leg today, cut your right leg tomorrow, cut your dick day after tomorrow and continue cutting you until you eventually die?" Brigitta asked. "What you do not understand is, if you die, I'll definitely find someone else to extract the information from. So why would you die for nothing?" Brigitta asked and went to bring a sharp saw to the room. He stretched his leg and place the saw on his feet. Beocca realized what is about to happen, he shouted, "wait!" "No, you don't command me." "Wait! I'll tell you." He shouted with all his strength when he saw that he was about cutting off his fee
Ragnar Marshall was able to get Cassie's contact, and he had invited her over to his location at England. When Cassie landed with Dian who was now a big boy, Ragnar Marshall who was already waiting for them at the airport walked towards them and welcomed them, then he lead them inside his car. When they eventually got to his house and settled, he made them ate and afterwards, Cassie and Dian came to sit with him in the living room. "Dad, you abandon us for years, it's so unfair," Dian said. "I'm so sorry, I'll make it up if you and your mom let me," Ragnar said. "Ragnar, although we have suffered so much, I still love you. I'm glad you called us back," Cassie said. "Dad, when you were away, it was prince Guthred of Maridonna that made mom and I live very comfortable," Dian said. "Dian!" Cassie cautioned him. Dian and Cassie had agreed to keep that a secret, she didn't expect for him to spill such out. "Did Guthred knows that you are coming here?" Ragnar Marshall asked the mothe
Birdie walked up to the window and kept hitting the window, she could tell that it was very strong. Not even a stone could break it. Whereas, Serafina continued crying fretfully. All of a sudden, the door opened and Birdie saw two huge men walk in. Fear gripped the heart of the two girls that they shrinked frightfully, the two guys ignored Serafina and carried Birdie out of the room. Birdie struggled but her struggle was futile. At the end, she was forced to sit on a seat in a yard. Before her was Guthred who sat majestically. "What do you want with me?" Birdie asked courageously. She was scared, yes, but due to her experiences and that of her brothers in the past, she had grown a thick skin. "Your dad's house location in England." Guthred went straight to the point. "You are a child, I don't want to hurt you at all but if you refuse to cooperate, then I'll be left with no choice but to let you experience an unspeakable amount of pain. One that would traumatize you your entire life
An aeroplane landed at Jora City's international airport at 2PM. Students of age 17 and 18 could be seen stepping down from the airport. Amidst all these students was Birdie and her bestfriend, Serafina. Serafina had already clocked eighteen while Birdie would clock eighteen the following day. As they walked alongside other students to the bus that would take them to the hotel, both friends discussed about various things, some of which were Birdie's experiences here at Jora. Afterall, she once lived in Jora City with her parents. She may be young then but she still remembered their culture and their way of life. That night, all the students lodged at the hotel. Around 10PM in the evening, a man walked towards the receptionist and dropped a backpack of cash on the table, "you won't make these money even if you work hard your entire life." The receptionist unzipped the backpack and saw loads of money, his eyes widened, "what service may I render you, sir?" He took the backpack of mo
At Maridonna's kingdom, the ten princes of Maridonna's kingdom stood before the great emperor of the kingdom. They trembled in fear and had their head lowered in shame. Lined up in the left roles were the council members and lined up in the right row were the overlords of cities. The atmosphere were tensed and everyone present steadied their breath as they were scared to even breath. "How shameful!" The emperor stated. "Not only could you not get Ragnar Marshall, we even lost our spy, Brigitta. That woman tricked us. Yet, I had the opportunity to kill her but you... You, Guthred told me to pardon and use her." He added in fury, "you couldn't even produce even one of her babies. I have never been dissapointed as I am right now." The emperor was boiling in anger, "Ragnar Marshall isn't the governor of any state, he's not a president of anywhere, neither is he a king nor an emperor, he holds no political position. He's just a random citizen with soldiers yet he defeated us in battle."
She immediately placed a call across to Ragnar Marshall to which he answered, "I've been informed of the attack in my house. There is a secret exit at the second hallway, just press code 211AXs when you get to the door, it will open." "Alright, "Brigitta said and stepped out through the hallway. Ragnar Marshall knew that these battles would be an endless one, unless Maridonna is destroyed, there will be no peace for himself, Brigitta and the kids. Sometimes, it's wisdom to know when to run and when to fight. So he told Beocca to go and pick Brigitta and her kids from the secret exit of the house and bring them to his airport. He wouldn't let Brigitta nor her kids gets captured again. It's time for her to live a happy ever after and he will make that happen. Ragnar Marshall soon arrived at the airport, he stood on the stairs and waited patiently for Beocca to drive Brigitta and the kids over here. When fifteen minutes passed without any trace of Beocca, his concern heightened and t
Cassie had goodbumps as she spoke. She spoke exactly like Brigitta and it's very weird. She couldn't stop staring at her. "I will tell you if you tell me whom you work for?" Ragnar Marshall asked. He still didn't trust her enough to reveal his identity to her. "This wasn't the deal," Brigitta said. "Be truthful to me and I'll be truthful to you. Just come clean and I promise you transparency," he said. Because she was in danger of Maridonna's attack, she decided to confess, "well, I was imprisoned for years in Maridonna's kingdom. I was about to be killed a month ago when Prince Guthred spoke up on my behalf before the emperor. They decided to use me to kill Ragnar Marshall and that was why I was sent here for the mission. They told me Ragnar Marshall and I once worked together as a terrorist and that it was Ragnar Marshall that killed my babies. But I later found out that they lied." "Alex Roberto, my ex husband revealed the truth to me before he died." Brigitta said. The hairs
"I can not. You will have to kill me firstly before you can get to the kids." Brigitta said. "Is this how you will pay for how I saved your life?" Prince Guthred asked."I can't let you take my kids away from me. As for the Mission, I am almost done. I have Ragnar Marshall with me." "In your custody?" Guthred was surprised. "Yes." "Take me there now." Guthred commanded. She walked out and closed her door then she took him to the warehouse. However, when they got there, they saw that the place had turned into chaos, everywhere was scattered and Alex Roberto was on the floor, bleeding. "Oh my days! They Ragnar Marshall's men found out this place already." Brigitta ran inside where she kept the person she thinks was Ragnar Marshall but the person was no longer there. She ran to where Beocca was kept but he wasn't there also, then she walked out. "My prince, they escaped." She reported. Guthred grunted in frustration, "why don't you just kill Ragnar after you have held him hostage
Whereas, at Brigitta's house, she scoffed after Ragnar Marshall left. As though she knew that "Lee" could be related to the Ragnar Marshall, hence, she quickly told Alex to take her hostages away before Ragnar Marshall would arrive. Brigitta then drove over to the warehouse that the hostages are. On getting there, Alex showed her where her hostages were. In a room was Beocca, in another was 'Ragnar Marshall' and in another were six kids. But something caught her attention in the kids, it's the fact that five of the six kids looked alike. But more than that, those kids seemed to have a close resemblance with her. She shut the door so she could have some time with the kids, the kid's mouth were neither gagged nor tied. They were only locked up in a room. "Hello," she greeted the six kids but the little one were quiet and scared. She remembered that she was told Ragnar Marshall killed her kids. What if it's not true? What if these are her kids? It's crazy to think that way but why w
Ragnar Marshall's heart skipped in fear. If it was that weird boy, Dian that was kidnapped, he wouldn't really mind but Brigitta's kids? Although those kids aren't his, he still treats them as though they were his. For the love he had for Brigitta, how could he let any harm come against those kids."Might be that woman, Lin,* Ragnar Marshall said. Took a few seconds before he suddenly stood. "Prepare fifty men, I know where she lives." "Alright, sir." Ottar immediately walked out. About thirty five minutes later, they arrived at Lin's place, "bring every single soul you find in there to this place!" He commanded. Ottar and twenty five of the men walked in speedily and began to ransack the house but unfortunately, they returned with a negative report, "not a single soul is in there. Infact, it looked like whoever is living there had already moved." Ragnar Marshall didn't expect so much from a woman, he must give it to Lin that she was really very smart. He didn't see Lin as a threa
