Chapter 17 - Episode 17- Handmaiden

"You fucked a handmaiden?!" Derek paces back and forth in front of Connor.

"So what? My brother married a noble and lets not forget MY mother married you! A assassin!" Connor crosses his arms. "So again tell me, Derek, why I can't get wed with a "servant girl"?"

"Because!" Derek walks up to him. "I don't care if you marry a whore! It's not about her being a servant or that at all!"

"Than what is it?" Connor glared at him.

Derek rubbed his eyes. "She's a fairy, Connor"

Connor shakes his head. "But she-"

"She had her wings cut when she was born. She was born a slave. She came from a human tribe that didn't need her anymore and so we took her. We gave her a home and fed her." Derek looked at him.

"Again so?" Connor growled.

"Connor...her race hates us humans" Derek sighed. "Fairies hate all human kind. No matter what. They made it their mission to kill all of us off when they get the chance. That's why we kept her a slave in the castle. So she can be monitor all the time."

Connor sits down. "No...GG isn't like them! She wouldn't-"

"Connor she would. Any chance she gets with you alone she will kill you" trever puts his hand on his shoulder. "I promise not to hurt her. She will not be harmed. I promise that but do not marry her." He walks out.

Connor sighs as he puts his face into to his hands.

"Connor?"

Connor jumps. He sees GG standing before him. "GG..."

"I heard.." She sighed. "I know you think I want to kill you..but I don't.."

He goes to her. "No..no.." He holds her. "GG I promise that I will marry you. I don't care what they say"

She smiles. "I love you"

He kisses her.

*Throne Room*

"Sorry I had to deal with some things." Derek walks in. He stands beside Libria.

"It's alright. I was just going over some price ranges for the shops." She hands him some papers.

He looks at them. "Ahh okay."

"M'lord I hate to be the one to say it but why do we have to have a woman at the table?" A man dressed in all white asks as he sits beside Derek.

Libria smiles. "Are you new?"

The man laughs. "Sweet-y I've been here-"

"Too long." She interrupts him. "Listen here you old man. I was queen before Kat even thought about being queen. I showed her this place and in my disappearance she made a whole new kingdom. Now.." Libria smiles. "I would like for you to only answer when I call upon you. And if you don't obey I will, oh and I will, cut your tongue out and shove it down your throat and maybe feed you to the dogs. Do we have a agreement?"

The old man nods.

"Good." She looks at Derek. "You may speak." She sits back in her chair.

*After the meeting*

Libria and Derek are alone, as some maids clean up the papers off the table.

"I hear you visited Anna." Derek asks her.

Libria nods. "Yeah I did."

"I promise not to tell your sister." Derek nods.

Libria stops in shock. "How did you-"

"I heard you talking to Anna. Down in the cell. I promise not to tell Kat. She may be mad but she won't kill me unlike you." He laughs.

She smiles. "Thank you."

He sighs. "May I ask you why?"

She takes a deep sigh. "I thought it would keep her safe. Safe from me...from Anna but it didn't help. She found me. Over and over again."

"Over and over again?" He looks at her confused.

"Kat found me again and again. I erased her memory each and every time but nothing...she kept finding me." She smiled. "I kind of like having her around."

He smiled. "Yeah she's something." He looks at the ground.

"Is she okay?" Libria asks.

"Yes. She's getting a little better." Derek smiles. "I hope she makes it okay."

She pats his shoulder. "She will. Kat's always been a fighter"

*Somewhere In A Cave*

"I told you! I didn't say anything!" A man pleads as he sits, chained, to a chair.

Touma stands before him. "Again"

Another man pulls off one of sitting man's fingers.

"You better start talking or you won't have any more fingers to pull off. And if that happens well..." Touma smiles. "I'll start pulling other body parts off"

The man cries. "Fine! I only told King Mali! Okay! He only knows! But he promise not to say anything!"

Touma sighs. "See? Was that so hard?" He walks away.

"Am I free?" The man cries out.

"Oh yes. You are free" Touma smiles as he walks out the door. He slowly closes it.

A man in a all black suit stands in front of the sitting man.

"B-but he said-"

"What? You are going to be a free man." The black suit man laughs. He slashes the mans throat.

Touma walks down a long hall. "Tell King Mali that his assassin was killed."

A servant boy bows. "Yes. He will be pleased." The boy walks away.

Touma sighs. "Why did I have to come back to this when I could be fighting my sister?"

"Because you who would please me?" A woman wearing nothing but a tarp walks up to him. She had long black hair.

"Oh hello" He smiles.

She leans on him. Pressing her body to his.

"How much?" He asks.

She smiles. "For you..free" She grabs his hand.

"Why free?" He questions.

"Because I know you have blood on your hands and I love it when a man takes another mans life!" She licks his finger.

"Damn you a freaky chick!" He laughs. "Alright then"
