106 This is going to be so fun
Lilith pov
“Lilith!”
I heard someone call my name as a sharp pain shot through my skull, causing everything around me to blur but I forced it down and looked up and the moment I did, my heart went cold, breath stolen from my lungs.
Lora was on the ground, staring at me with tears streaming down her face. Some of the maids were beside her, all looking at me with fear, while the others who had been alive just minutes ago were dead.
I blinked in shock, staring at four maids sprawled on the ground, their throats, and chest slashed, eyes wide and lifeless, dried tears streaking their faces. They were motionless.
And Theila…
She was kneeling, a man standing tall in front of her, face emotionless, hands tucked into his pockets. For a brief moment, his gaze flicked to me before shifting back to Theila. When I turned, I realized there were more than three men, at least twelve, meaning the others had regrouped. 1
My chest tightened, pain and fury mixing as my eyes flickered back to the dead maids. I clenched my fists, a surge of anger and sorrow flooding through me.
“Who is this woman? Where are Justin and Emmanuel?” one of the men asked but I didn’t answer and Lora, who was beside me moved closer and murmured,
“Lilith… what are you doing here-”
Before she could finish, the man in front of Theila spoke, his tone dry and emotionless but Theila didn’t tremble. She didn’t cry. Her hands were clenched into fists.
“Our leader wants the golden dagger. Where is it?”
Theila’s hands tightened further, blood trickling down her palms. My heart pounded harder as the other maids immediately began pleading.
“Please, Theila. Tell them! Please, we don’t want to die!”
They cried out, but Theila shook her head, lowering it even more. Her voice was shaky, yet resolute.
“I do not know where it is.”
She hissed, and the man in front didn’t react. He didn’t even speak. He simply lifted a hand and snapped his fingers.
The moment he did, the maids’ cries grew hysterical as they backed away. And to my horror, I watched as one of the rogues stepped forward. Without hesitation, he grabbed one of the maids.
She struggled and screamed, but he held her up and with claws extended, he slashed across her chest.
The world froze.
Blood splattered across my face, warm and wet. I didn’t move. I didn’t even breathe.
Thud.
She hit the ground beside me, the sound echoing through the room. I stared at her as her body went still, her eyes open and empty.
She was killed. Just like that.
