"I didn't do it alone. The mistress did it with me." Her eyes lifted and landed on Vetta, "She killed Prince Declan with me."

King Lucien stilled.

"What....!?" His head swiveled and landed on Vetta, "What...!?" He repeated.

Vetta did not move a muscle. There were tears in her eyes...tears of guilt and pain. But, she did not say a word.

"The Mistress has no words because she knows I speak the truth! We killed Prince Declan together and we enjoyed it!" She laughed maliciously, "It's a pity that he is still alive!"

King Lucien returned fierce blue-eyes at the woman.

She lifted her chin, "Yes, it's a pity that he survived! I hate it! But, I'm not worried," that evil laugh again, "My master will still kill you all! He will have the victory! He will—"

Her head separated from her shoulder. King Lucien had cut off her head. It dangled on the floor in front of King Lucien's shoes.

"Dargak, clean up this mess." He stated simply.

The guard needn't be told twice. He hurried about to clean out the girl's body and blood from the King's Chambers.

Then, King Lucien turned cold eyes towards Vetta.

**********

Does Declan remember everything?

Will I be executed today? Or will I be vindicated?

The question repeated itself over and over again in her mind as she stared at the man whom she has loved for so long...whom she has sacrificed everything for, over and over again. The same man who's staring back at her with questioning eyes as cold as ice.

She said nothing at all. There was nothing to say.

"What did I just hear?" He grated, "Was she right, Vetta? Did you have a hand in killing my brother?"

"Yes. King Cone gave me a sword to Kill Declan and an ultimatum." She stated at last. "It was either him or you. I took the sword from him and chose to keep you alive."

"You killed Declan...?" The disbelief and pain in his voice were too much.

"I was left with no choice." There were tears in her eyes, but she lifted her chin proudly, looking him in the eyes. "Do you know the worst part of these? If it repeats itself again, I will still choose to keep you alive."

King Lucien's head was overloaded. Too crowded, his thoughts were all jungled up. His head was no longer making sense to him.
