Soon my little secret love was found by my head Knight who give her orders. He asked for her to visit him. The moment Red was there she was slapped. " A piece of trash like you should never dream of loving king. Know your place Red." ," I'm sorry sir. I should know my place. I'll try to stay away from king. I'll protect him from Shadows." I lower my head. I felt a presence near us.

"Who are you ? Come out!" She stated. Even if she were to do any mistake like loving. The head fully trusted in my decision and hunches. He quickly went from secret chamber and left her alone. When she checked there was no one. I wonder who was here and following me. She ordered other soldiers to find the intruder.

Unknowing to her there was none other than king and he had listened the whole conversation.

Today we are at court. I am in hidden afar from King Grey but in range. Today many noble and some higher ups are here for some important announcement and specially invited King.

Soon the meeting started and every noble and higher ups started listing the crimes which king had done. I was quite shocked. 'Why did he had go through all this trouble? He should've just said so? He might get executed for all this but wait will king really do this?I should help him. He is the only one I love I have to protect him. And after all this is my duty.'

Before Grey could say anything. Red stepped in front and said " I'm sorry lord Grey that I didn't said anything about this to you." Grey was a bit confused. An old man shouted " Huh what do you mean young girl?"

" Pardon! But I am the Knight Red. Every crime that you mentioned was done by me. In order to keep King on top. I did some unforgivable thing. So I will accepted any punishment you give!" Red said.

A noble was about to protest but was stopped by another noble. He gave an evil smile and said out loud. " So as your punishment you will be executed by your Lord Grey. " He smirked.

Someone whispered " Huh but we only wanted to kill king why do we kill this girl. She didn't did anything right?"

" Yes she is quite a innocent one. Our men were the only who did those crimes. If she is like she say that she is the Shadow Knight Red then she is a threat too. She is King's personal bodyguard. If she is not there then we can easily assassinated the king." Then gave a smirk.

" If that's what the punishment I will gladly take it. " After saying this she smiled. Seeing that smile the nobles felt guilty. That was the most purest smile they might have seen. She welcomed her death with a smile only so her king can be free. Grey tried protesting but no avail. At the end she killed her self.

That's how the great Knight Red died. And then was welcomed by the darkness.
