31. Fugitive on the run

“Milady? Who are you talking about, Lady…?” The man left the sentence mid-way waiting for the girl to answer him.However, instead of answering him what he wanted, Miranda shook her head. “I apologize, kind Sir. I am not in a place to answer your questions, especially when I am suspicious about all people, including you until I meet the Lord. I hope you will understand the predicament I am in.” Miranda said with a helpless smile, hoping that the man would not give up on her just because she did not give him what he wanted.The man nodded at her, his eyes staring somewhere far behind her. He seemed to be lost in thoughts. ‘T

32. Murder or self-murder?

Eldrick and Minister Oakley arrived together at Fergus’s manor and the moment the people saw the Lord, they made way for him on impulse, unlike the way Raelynn and Laurier had to push their way forward through the mob. By now, the news of the merchant leader’s death had reached all ears and everybody was keen to find out what had happened. People swarmed to his place like bees making it burdensome for the guards.As soon as the people saw Eldrick, all the people bowed at him in respect. However, this time, the man did not even glance at the people like he usually did. His face had scrunched up and just by one glance, anybody could infer that the man was in a horrible mood. Provoking him at this time would only mean throwing themselves into the arms of danger.

33. Penannular brooch

Eldrick and Kolan left the room and went outside. Oakley was standing beside Raelynn and Laurier and they were involved in a deep discussion. Even the crowd seemed to be whispering among themselves as there were murmurs heard everywhere.As soon as they saw the Lord walk out, his expression solemn and cold, everybody shivered in their places. It had been

34. Courtroom task

The ministers made their way to the palace one by one. It had only been a few hours since they had left the courtroom after Cathal’s departure that they had been summoned back by the Lord to deal with an important issue at hand. As to what that important issue was, everybody knew. Sir Fergus’s death was not a secret and given how the man was closely acquainted with Eldrick, the Lord was bound to deal with the issue himself. Although the ministers were not happy about being called twice on the same day, they could only follow the orders, especially when the matter was related to somebody’s death. Kolan and Oakley arrived together and they took their respective seats. Except Cathal, every other minister of the kingdom was present and waiting for the Lord.

35. Catching the prey

“Yes, Milord. He is in the fourth person from the left in the fifth row. He is wearing a teal-colored coat.” The Lord did not turn back immediately to see who Darcio was talking about. He nodded at the boy with a small smile. “Return to your chair and do not look at the ministers anymore. Also, after a few minutes, pretend as if you are bored and drift off to sleep.” Eldrick ordered and the boy agreed to do as he was told.The two returned to their chairs and faced the confused audience, once again. Only this time, the boy seemed to be disinterested in whatever was happening around him.

36. Courage to kill

“Minister Erebus, have you lost your tongue, or can’t you recognize your own brooch?” As soon as Eldrick took his name, Erebus broke out into a cold sweat. His lips ran dry and his face paled. All eyes were fixed on him and he did not know how to face them, now that he had been called out in front of everyone. The Lord’s voice was exceptionally low and calm. And he knew that it was an ominous indication of the upcoming storm and destruction.Erebus tried to form coherent words but nothing came out of his mouth. It was as though his mouth refused to speak in this perilous and difficult situation. Eldrick watched him like a hawk, anger surging through his blood as time ticked by. But all he got was silence. “Minister Erebus, I asked you a question and I expect an answer from you.” He stressed and this time, hi

37. Mother's food

The priest sprinkled the holy water on Sir Fergus’s body while he chanted the hymns. Many people had gathered at the graveyard to give their respects to the man one last time. Even Raelynn and Laurier were present as they mourned the death of their trusted one. ‘I am sorry, dear friend.’ Eldrick’s eyes teared up seeing the man now lying in a coffin. His body had been cleaned thoroughly and he was clad in fresh clothes. The man’s body had lost its color and seeing him laying this way, made Eldrick to lose control. ‘I couldn’t protect you well and you had to bear the consequences of someone’s desires and cunning plot. I hope you will forgive me, dear friend.’The priest was done with his chants and he looked at the

38. Reaching destination

“This soup tastes just like how Mother used to prepare.” Eldrick’s eyes pooled with tears and this time he could not control them any longer. They ran down his cheeks while he stared at his sister. Raelynn hugged him immediately seeing him break down. He needed to let out all his pent-up emotions if he wanted to grow strong to catch the culprit. She consoled him quietly, allowing the man to do as he pleased. Eldrick’s emotions were a mess and the moment he tasted the soup, he had reminisced about his mother. All the sorrow and frustration he had in him took over and he cried like a baby. Eldrick hugged his sister tight while he tried to sort out his emotions. It took him a long time for him to return to his usual self. “Thank you so much for being my sister, Raelynn. If you were not here with me, I do not think I

39. Father's plan

Talay took Miranda to his mansion and the girl was surprised to see his house. It was bigger than she had expected, even bigger than her Lady's house. Although she knew that the man worked for Lord Eldrick, she had no idea that he was this capable and rich. ‘This man is not normal. I need to be wary of him.’ She thought inwardly as she continued to follow the man. As soon as Talay stepped inside the manor, the maids saw him and they immediately hurried to inform his presence to his mother.“My mother could be a little overwhelming. I am meeting her after a month or so. Don’t be scared if she appears overly enthusiastic.” Talay warned and Miranda nodded at him. “Also, I hope you will remove your disguise. I promise I will do nothing to you. Your safety is my utmost priority, Lady Miranda.” Miranda could sense the sincerity in his

40. Dimitri all along

“What?” Zaina was stunned by the revelation. Her mind was unable to comprehend whatever she had heard and she pinched herself to see if she was dreaming. “Father, what did you say? The Lord of Volar is coming to save me?” She asked once again to confirm it. ‘Am I hallucinating or is it actually happening? I hope is this not a joke or a dream I am having.’ “Yes, my dear. The Lord owes me and I just sought out his help. I am sure he will come to our rescue soon. So, be prepared. I have sent him a letter already. He will be here in three days.” Kristoff assured her and the girl immediately hugged her father.“Father,” She sobbed as happy tears fell from her eyes. However, the old man misunderstood her and pani
