The murder of Prince Hakeem, the almost fatal assault on the King, the impact of a stray bullet on his only son, Sharma and most importantly, the heartbreaking grief of Lolitha culminated into the perfect catalyst for Asad's dangerous ire.
All Prince Asad saw at the moment was blood. It was either him tonight or his evil brother. He was ready to take the path of a hero rather than live the rest of his life, as a coward. If his death would put an end to the family's misfortune, then so be it.
Having succeeded in distracting Tristan by impaling him with a knife, Asad, -true to his words- skillfully disarmed Tristan and struck him on the temple with the head of his sword.
Tristan instantly fell sideways with a heavy thud on the grass floor and lost consciousness due to the blow to his head.
A loud shriek of pure horror escaped Dina's opened mouth. But the fight was far from over as the beast in Beshar had just been awakened by his son's unconsciousness.
