52. Interesting and agonizing
Immediately after meeting the Lord, Raelynn left towards her battalion. Although Knight Commander Laurier was taking care of the matters in the East Battalion, it was her responsibility to look over the issues and solve them. Raelynn rode her horse as swift as she could, her eyes blazing with fire as she closed in towards her destination.
‘I cannot allow any more men to become victims of Dimitri’s schemes. I need to come up with a plan to find out who the spies are.’ Raelynn thought as she passed by the gates of the arena.
The knights, who were pr

“Sir Warren, can you get me some cayenne powder? It’s time to make the punishment more interesting and agonizing; interesting for us, agonizing for them.” Raelynn requested politely, making sure to lower her voice. Only the three men could hear her; Raelynn made sure to keep her victims in the dark. It was a surprise for them for not cooperating with her. Although she was the Commander of the battalion, the two men beside Laurier was more capable and experienced than her. She respected them, without putting an air of arrogance in front of them. And just like Laurier, the two men too were not dejected to be led by a woman. Although at first, they were apprehensive and dubious about her skills
The Warrior Princess 54. Catching spies
The first measure Raelynn took after finding out the names of the spies was to dispatch a knight to each of the battalion, providing them the list of spies. Although the East Battalion had lost seven brave men, she did not want the other three battalions to face the same disaster. Following this, she arranged for the funeral for her brave knights. They had been murdered at the peak hours of dawn and their family members had already been intimated to the issue. Now, they had to take the dead men to the burial ground so that they could give them a good farewell. In a
The Warrior Princess 55. Suspicious case
The next day.In Hollis, Dimitri was going man as time ticked by. The fugitive had escaped from, his prison and as each second passed, Dimitri was sure that the man had left Hollis. Otherwise, given his manpower and skilled guards, there was no way he would have caught up with him. Dimitri's paranoid mind had gone to the extent to even doubt his loyal guards and in a fit of anger, he had killed more than twelve knights.Dimitri stared at the knights he had killed, his blood thirst not satisfied by their blood on his hands. He wanted more and preferably of the man who had escaped from his kingdom. He knew who the man was; he was a spy from his enemy's kingdom ad his escape was nothing but a huge blow to his power as well as ego. Unlike his spies who were getting caught by the knights of Volar one by one, the fugitive was the first one he had ever caught in his kingdom.With a loud roar, Dimitri chopped off another guard's head, his blood splattering on his face,
The Warrior Princess 56. Seven carriages
Seeing the guard drop to his knees, Dimitri was surprised. This was the first time somebody had evoked such a reaction from him. It was quite rare of him to be taken aback. Dimitri was a cold man and nothing could make him lose his coldness, nothing at all. However, for the first time, he was visibly stunned, especially after taking a closer look at what the case held.The other people in the hall wanted to take a view of what the case held for they were stupefied to see such a reaction on their Lord's face. However, nobody dared to move away from their place in fear of losing their heads, in case their actions irked the Lord. They waited patiently, hoping for some to kill their curiosity.All of a sudden. Dimitri, who was staring at the case intently, started laughing out loud and his sudden cha
The Warrior Princess 57. Solace and strength
Dimitri ran his eyes over the carriages and saw the way each of his men were butchered and killed. The gore scene and the blood stench made many blood stench people to move away from the area. It was too much for the common people to bear. However, that was not the case for Dimitri. For him, this scene evoked a sense of provocation, a sense of failure, a taste of defeat.Dimitri walked around the carriages, keenly observing the dead bodies. Nobody could decipher what was running his mind. However, only he knew how impressed and stirred he was by what he was seeing. ‘I must applaud your army, Eldrick.’ He nodded, an evil glint flashing in his eyes which nobody noticed. ‘But I have not accepted defeat yet, nor will you be able to defeat me. I will take this as a challenge and let me assure you that you will not like the outcome once I take
The Warrior Princess 58. Ultimate ruler
"Zaina, where is Miranda?" Dimitri questioned as he pulled back and stared at the girl who did not show any changes in her expressions. She was calm and relaxed as she had already gone through what she was supposed to tell the man who was more observant than she had imagined him to be.Zaina had already prepared herself for the question and she smiled to herself, praising herself as well as her friend, Miranda for their smartness, more to Miranda though. It was her who had given her the courage and the hope she needed at her desperate time."Milord, Miranda's relative is ill and she has gone to meet her family in her village," Zaina uttered. She did not specify which relative of hers was sick as that would make things difficult for the girl in case Dimitri were to investigate the truth. Zaina had heard Miranda speak about a distant relative of hers from her mother's side who was on her death bed. So, she was, in fact, not lying to Dimitri."I s
The Warrior Princess 59. Cathal in Hollis
Cathal had reached Hollis the previous night and had waited for the break of dawn to meet the Lord of Hollis. Although he had prepared himself to meet the Lord and speak to him, he could remove the distress and uneasiness in his mind that had taken its seed the moment he had departed from Volar.His trepidation only grew and terror settled in when he too heard about the dead men found at the entrance of the kingdom gates. He knew that the Lord would be fuming by now, and this was not the right time to meet him; especially when it was his kingdom men who killed the men of Hollis.The moment he had arrived at the palace, the guards had given him a look of hatred and disgust. It was not that the men hated the people of Volar, no. Unlike Dimitri and some fawning and fussing ministers who agreed with everything the Lord demanded without thinking, just for their greed and selfishness, everybody else from the kingdom of Hollis, including the knights and the other men treated
The Warrior Princess 60. Poisoned..?
"What if I want nothing but war and want to kill your Lord? What will you do?" Dimitri asked, a sinister smile making its way on his face. His smile made him look all the more evil and cunning and Cathal, for the first time after entering Hollis, did not feel afraid of him."In that case, we the people of Volar will fight until our last breath. But we will not lose hope and accept our defeat without putting our best." The man spoke, determination and confidence dripping in his words. He was certain that these words of his would make the man before him lose his cool and irk him. But he was here on his Lord's orders and he had taken up the responsibility to negotiate and bring peace between the two kingdoms.Dimitri raised an eyebrow listening to Cathal's bold words. "May I know what your name is?" He questioned, his menacing smile not leaving his face. 'I appreciate the people around Eldrick. All of them are strong and courageous, unlike the men in my kingdo
