The Wicked War

Chapter 4

In the moonlit realm of ElfHame, where ancient trees reached for the stars and ethereal creatures moved in harmony with the night, human rebels were everywhere some of them watching in awe how the lights danced around. Some eating the fruits and now they are acting like puppets. Some are destroying things.

In conclusion it’s a mess in here nothing is the same.
I don’t how it started but I can tell you it doesn’t seem like it will be ending in a good way or anytime soon.

Guards are all over the place and they are following me everywhere Madoc says its for the sake of my protection I say he is deep down afraid I may take off and ruin his plans.

That sounds like the perfect description of what I’m going to do, but I don’t know how I’m going to do it I may just end up killing these two stupid assholes who are following me everywhere.

I’m trying not to freak out here, the thought of me getting stuck into this is hurting my brain and making the adrenaline rush into my whole body they said tomorrow, which means I’ve got only few hours in my hands to leave I need a plan but its hard to thing when you are feeling like this.
I pace back and forth between the door and Taryn’s bed, I need to get rid of the guards before I do anything.
I pull out my dagger and open the door quietly.

Fortunately, they didn’t seem to notice.

Thanks to the ghost I now can walk without the sound of footsteps. With a swift, silent movement, l launch myself at the man in front of  me my dagger finding its mark. The guard slumped to the ground, unconscious, as i caught his falling body.

Before the second guard could react, i hide making it seem like the threat came from someone else. I press myself against the wall The second guard, now alerted, reached for his weapon, but it was too late.

I struck with a whirlwind of motion, delivering a precise blow that sent him stumbling backward.

With a swift kick, I knock his weapon away and seize the opportunity to disarm him.

“Please don’t kill me” he pleads.
And I don’t, but I give him a good smack to the head with the butt of my dagger.

That was quicker than I thought, I step over his unconscious body and run towards the back door, usually it’s not guarded at this time but with the events that is happening currently I’m not sure.

“Taryn.” Madoc’s voice stops me in my tracks.

“Um…” did he saw the guards? I think I’m shaking right now I hope he doesn’t notice.

“I need you to go to my office now, I’ll be there shortly wait for me.” He speaks.

“Yes, of course.” I don’t wait for him to say anything else.

If anything, I’m happy that he didn’t ask what I’m doing alone or to where I’m heading, the back door has to wait a little longer.

I walk to Madoc’s office cursing the day I agreed to Taryn’s request, she threw me into this. Oh, I can’t wait to throw her off a cliff when I get escape from this.

I open the door and step inside; I wonder what he wants to talk about. Maybe he is going to give me the tips of how to be a good wife and I will have hold myself and not kill him in the process.

I stand beside the window looking outside, and a memory hits me, that one day Madoc didn’t allow me and Taryn to go to the party in the royal castle.

So, we snack out of this window because we wanted to go so bad and it was the only place, we could go out unnoticed it is close to the main gates and even if someone saw you, you have a better chance at escaping.
