Her Majestic Battle Cry 1104
Chapter 1104
How could Isaac dare leave his guild junior behind?
Even while carrying Violet, he was still capable of fighting.
As Isaac turned around, he saw Carissa’s whip loop around Yuvan’s neck, pulling him forward. She slapped him hard across the face, her strikes ringing out with fury.
Good. Capturing the leader came first. If they had Yuvan, they could at least escape once they tied him up.
Without hesitation, Isaac tightened his grip on Violet and ran. Her flushed face and the heat rising from her skin told him she had been drugged. He needed to find a way to insert silver needles to disperse the blood and break the toxin’s grip.
Carissa had captured Yuvan, but Claire and Iris had been taken by the guards as well. Their throats were pressed against the sharp edges of swords, the blades nearly cutting into their skin.
Yuvan finally dropped his pretense and sneered. “If you have the courage, kill me. Go on, kill your uncle–in–law! Let’s see how Rafael explains that to the world!”
Carissa tightened her grip on the whip, fire burning in her eyes. “Do you think I won’t?” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Yuvan’s eyes rolled back as the pressure on his neck caused his breath to falter. He tilted his head back, struggling to breathe, but the tightness around his neck made it impossible to get any air.
Fiona stepped forward briskly, her voice cold as she asked, “Lady Carissa, what crime has Prince Yuvan committed? You’re kidnapping him without cause–where’s the law in that?” “What crime?” Carissa snapped, her voice venomous. “He tried to ruin Violet! A royal prince, committing such a filthy act. Killing him would rid the world of a menace!” “You’re mistaken.” Fiona’s gaze shifted as she spoke, her eyes sharp. “Our people found that Ms. Spencer had been drugged. Knowing she is Lady Molly’s cousin, we brought her here to help her. His Highness has a reputation to uphold and cannot tolerate such slander.
“I
She reached out and tugged Molly, who had been standing stunned, into the conversation. “Lady Molly, tell them. Isn’t that right?”
Molly nodded numbly, her lips trembling. “Y–Yes, that’s true.”
Carissa swung her whip at Molly. As the whip cut through the air, she grabbed Yuvan’s neck, easing his breath just a bit before swiftly restraining him again.
The whip struck Molly across her head and face, causing her to cry in pain. Despite the
blow, she instinctively shrank behind Fiona, her eyes full of guilt.
“They are wolves, and you are no better–a beast! How dare you treat your cousin like this?! “Carissa spat, fury burning in her voice.
“I didn’t… I didn’t,” Molly stammered, her voice trembling as tears welled in her eyes. She shook her head violently. “She’s my cousin! I would never hurt her!”
Wayne stepped forward and positioned himself in front of Fiona, his gaze fixed on Carissa.
With a soft sigh, he said gently, “This is a terrible misunderstanding. No matter what you believe, we had no intention of harming Ms. Spencer, Lady Carissa. Just as Lady Fiona said, we found her poisoned.
“We have a physician with us, and we intend to help her. His Highness only entered to check on her. When we opened the tent earlier, what we saw was Ms. Spencer, dazed from the poison, tearing her clothes and holding onto His Highness. Had you arrived a little earlier, you would’ve heard His Highness call for the physician to assist.”
Carissa’s eyes were cold and deadly, like the gaze of a predator. Her eyes swept over everyone, including the group of black–clad suicide soldiers. At last, her gaze fell on them, and she sneered.
“Your words are nothing but deceit. I don’t believe a single one of them.”
Her grip on Yuvan’s neck tightened, making a sickening crack, but she didn’t ask them to release Claire or Iris. She knew that if she spoke first, she would lose the upper hand.
Iris and Claire, undaunted, said in unison, “If we must die, we will die seeking justice for Ms. Spencer!”
They both lunged forward, aiming for the sharp blades of the swords, forcing the guards to hastily pull back.
Wayne frowned, surprised. He hadn’t expected such courage from two women, ready to throw away their lives for sone else.
