The throne room was utterly silent. Everyone was waiting with baited breath for what could happen next.
"where is she?" Freya whispered "is.. she dead?" she asked with a frown looking around.
"I am not sure. It's too easy" Eder replied and his gaze fell on Aguya. She was slumped against the wall holding her bleeding tummy. Freya ran over to her.
"Aguya." she looked frantic assessing the wound.
"don't worry. I won't.. die ... yet" she spoke with difficulty. But if felt a bit reassuring.
"we should take you to a doctor" Freya said. The woman just nodded. Khan came and carried Aguya to see a doctor under the watchful eyes of Eder. Freya followed Khan but Emmett and Matt stayed.
Eder stood afar and watched what happened. He wondered if Vittoria was dead. It was too easy, he thought. He swore to his wife to have Vittoria's head and he will.
