The lady

Maerwyn…

I couldn't bare imagine what had happened to my sister. Where she would be in in the first place. Stefan was quick on his feet, there was a sneer now implanted on his face, I swear, I'll kill this son of a devil.

"Just stop acting all rough, did you actually think i was in love with your sister?" He asked tauntingly. "I thought you were smarter than Gwen, since you are less attractive"

Less attractive? Was this guy okay? Where can he master the courage to speak to me like that? Especially after betraying the trust of my sister? i failed her, why did I allow her to leave? Tears clouded my vision and if I had earlier threatened to kill him, i was going to actually do it.

"How could you betray someone who trusted you so much?" I asked, i couldn't believe this was the same Stefan that was acting lovey- dovey one week ago. He moved towards me, a glint of evil sparkling in his eyes.

"Because she was stupid" he said "I only slept with her the first time because she was beautiful and made me horny. But she thought i was in love with her, when she told me what happened with your dad, i saw it as an opportunity to get a few silver coins. And you were foolish enough to allow her to leave, you know Northania has the biggest slave market Di you?"

I close my eyes tightly, trying to filter whatever he was saying out. I couldn't bare it. When I opened my eyes, Stefan was leaning closer to me, his right hand wrapped on both sides of the wagon, blocking me between him.

"You have always fascinated me Mae" he whispered. Come on, is this guy the evil incarnate. How could he muster courage to say something like that in my face. His right hand slipped to my waist.

"Stefan, remove your hand from my waist" I warned him. He didn't heed the warning, his huge hand slipped downwards and rested on my thigh. what was going on in his head?

within a blur, his face was scrunched up uglily as he groaned with pain, i use the force i could master and struck him on the face, but this was after my knees crushed his balls. I knew i couldn't fight him one on one, but I knew someone who could do it. I raced to the mare and tried to climb it but Stefan knew what that meant and he wasn't going to allow me to do it. Even with pain, he rushed towards me and grabbed my ankle before pulling me hard making me to fall with a thud on the ground, my firm breasts getting smothered by the hard ground that i yelped with pain.

Stefan was on top of me within a blink of an eye, he used his hand to cover my mouth and brought his face closer to me. "Gwen told me you are a virgin, she has never kept anything from me. That's how much, she trusted me" he whispered. I felt pained, and betrayed by her, I thought she was my confidant, but why would she tell anyone things I considered a secret.

I lied still wondering what Stefan was going to do with me and it was as if he read my mind.

"I didn't want to harm you, but you have given me no choice. I'll have to kill you, since you are not going to attract any customer at the slave market" he whispered. His body weight was making it hard for me to move, Stefan was a six something feet man, and also lean, compared to my petite self, his body was smothering mine.

His free hand suddenly flipped my dress up, i tried to squim under his body, but i was only hurting myself. I could now feel the wind fanning my private parts since he had exposed them, his huge hand rested on my pubic area as he rubbed the stubble above my v****a.

Was he going to r**e me before killing me? His finger suddenly slipped into my v****a as he forced it in, i could feel my thighs clenching against his finger. My hole was too tight as I've never been touched by any money. Tears begun pouring from my eyes as he continued molesting me. I begun praying that my dad should come to my rescue, i wasn't going to die.

Suddenly, Stefan's movement stopped. Then something cold fall on my skin, before his body was pulled from me by someone. My dad. His face was so red that I could barely recognise him. His sword was still on his hand dripping with Stefan's blood. But he wasn't dead yet. He was now crawling towards his wagon his back covered in his own blood.

My body flared up. This man, had almost took my innocence, and this especially after selling my sister as a slave, i took the sword from my father's hand and walked towards him, he tried to move quickly but I knocked him with my knee on the face making him to fall on the ground.

"Mae, please don't…. don't" he begged. I turned to face my dad and saw a look of approval on his face. I lifted the sword into the air and brought it with force as the edge landed on his neck. The noise of the sword as it slashed the flesh on the neck gave me satisfaction but I didn't stop as I continued repeating the same deed until his head rolled from his body.

Then I was struck with horror. i've just killed someone.

I gazed at my father who nodded his head in approval, and was there a smile on his face? It actually freaked me out that he seemed pleased that I had killed someone in that horrifying manner. I knew that he always said not to show your enemies any mercy, but what freaked me out was wondering if my father had been a **sadist ** all this time.
