Chapter 258: The queen’s end (part 2)
"Mother, this is not the time to get angry. Hamon wouldn’t do anything to her, but if we stay, he’d surely lock me back in his dungeon, and maybe even lock you up with me this time for what you did." Cassius reasoned with his mother, if there was one person he feared the most in this world, it was his half brother, Hamon. And he wasn’t ready to return to that dungeon of his.
Merona thought about it briefly and couldn’t agree less with Cassius’ words. Hamon wouldn’t lay a hand on Eadlin, since they seemed to have a good relationship, but if she and Cassius wasted anymore time here...
"Alright, we have to leave through the secret door to avoid being caught. Now let’s go." She made towards the door, but stopped when Cassius didn’t follow behind her, "What are you waiting for? Let’s go!" She snapped.
"Mother, give me some minutes I need to go and get my fortune chest from my room, I can’t leave without it." After saying this, Cassius hurried out of the room, and Merona called after him but he didn’t heed to her warning for him to return.
How could he leave Findara without his gold chest? He still wanted to enjoy his life, even after leaving he planned to rebuild his personal brothel elsewhere. And later on, after Hamon had forgotten about his crimes, he would come back to Findara.
With that thought, Cassius increased his speed to reach his chamber. Meanwhile, Merona clenched her teeth in anger. Her son was really useless! How could he even think of gold in such a situation when they could die if they delayed any longer!
Merona made to the window to warily look outside to see if Hamon was coming, "I hope we leave before he arrives..." She murmured to herself, and just when she was about to breathe a sigh of relief that Hamon wasn’t coming, the door to her room burst open with a loud bang.
Merona’s eyes flew to the entrance, and her legs almost gave out at the sight of the demon Prince, who held a sword soaked with blood. His red eyes blazed like hell, his expression, murderous. She could feel the dangerous aura radiating from him.
"...W-what the hell are you doing in my chamber?" Merona managed to utter despite the fear and terror creeping up on her.
"What am I doing here you say?" He asked mockingly, "I am here to pay back some debts." He said calmly as he slowly approached Merona like a predator.
Merona felt her throat run dry, a cold chill went down her spine, and began to walk backwards as he approached. She knew even though she screamed, no one would hear her, but then how could she die in the hands of this bastard without trying to at least fight back?
With such thoughts, Merona’s eyes looked around the room for anything she could use to defend herself. Her eyes fell on a small knife under the table. She glanced back at Hamon, "...you can’t kill me, I am the queen of Findara. You will be put behind bars if you dare go against the law again."
Hamon chuckled darkly, "You’ve lost that title the moment you killed the king. And who will put the new king behind bars, step mother?"
"...!"
"All these years, I have longed to make you pay for everything thing you’ve done. You killed my mother, and even dared tried to kill me countless times. You even killed my wife...then You killed my father. Your crimes are beyond being locked up behind bars, even death is too easy as a punishment."
Merona’s eyebrows furrowed, "...I killed your wife?" She asked in disbelief, does this mean that annoying girl was dead? How wonderful!
Hamon could see the glee in the queen’s eyes at the thought of his wife being dead. She had mistook his words. He was referring to the ambush when Ara had died and he brought her back to life, but then he would let Merona believe what she wanted.
"My condolences for your lost...How I wish I got to see her die myself. How does it feel to lose your wife? You must be in miserable pain right now. Ha ha ha! You deserve it! And even if you kill me today, at least I took your wife with me. You_Ahh!" Before Merona could complete her words of mockery, Hamon had teleported in a blink of an eye, and cut off her right arm.
Merona’s limb fell to the floor, and blood oozed out like tap, her screams of agony filled the entire room.
Hamon clicked his tongue, "You should be careful what you say about my wife. I will make sure I give you a painful death today, step mother. And when you reach hell, you can say hi to your brother. Times up for you."
Merona quickly knelt on the floor, terror rising to her throat. It was the first time she had ever put herself below anyone, but then she had to, "P-please, spare my life..."
Hamon’s expression darkened even more, "Spare your life? Someone like you doesn’t deserve to live." He stated through clenched teeth.
Merona, however hadn’t just knelt down to beg, she wanted to take the knife under the table. She had managed to take it with her good hand. "You son of a bitch_gaaak!" Before she could stab Hamon with the knife, his sword neatly separated her neck from her body. Blood spurt from the neck, and the body soon lost strength and collapsed to the floor.
Cassius, who had returned a moment ago and was watching from outside with the big chest in his hands, turned completely pale. And without wasting another moment there, he began to run like his life depended on it, actually it did. His mother was dead! Who could help him now?
Cassius racked his brain as he ran out of his mother’s residence. There was only one person who could help him now and save him from Hamon, their uncle, Cornell!
’I need to go to uncle’s place. Uncle Cornell will help me avenge my mother! ’
