However, at this moment, the blood-stained long knife suddenly seemed as if it had grown wings and eyes, moving past the body of Brandon Cliff, soaring in the air and revealing its sharp edge. In a flash, the blade hand stabbed fiercely into Debora Fitz's body.
She barely had time to react, watching with wide eyes as the long knife pierced her flesh and shattered her heart.
She spat up filthy blood, a gaping hole the size of a bowl in her chest, her face reflected disbelief:
So, Ella Lacey hadn't let her go after all...
She collapsed to the ground, her fish-like dead eyes wide open, filled with malice and unwilling to close...
...
Ella Lacey didn't even turn her head to face the royal guards who had come to surround her, she revealed the ancestral royal token that her great-grandmother had given her.
Seeing the token was like seeing their highest leader.
The men kneel down before her in unison, unanimously shouting, "We're at your command!"
