Chapter 1
Angelo drank his wine in a gulp and smashed the glass . The girl dancing in front of him winced as one of the pieces pierced her leg but she didn’t stop. She knew what would happen if she did. He will kill her in a second or maybe kill her but after torturing her and her family. So she continued to dance as blood covered her leg.
The king wasn’t pleased. He was bored watching these whores dancing. He heard the old man calling his name so he got up and strided towards him in anger .
" What do you want now?”
" The rogues are attacking again” he said nervously.
Angelo smirked inwardly. Fighting and killing were some of the things he enjoyed the most. His hands itched to kill someone, to smash their skulls, to rape their wives. He gulped another glass of wine and got ready to shed blood.
...
It was too easy , he wasn’t satisfied with the fight. Most of them had surrendered when they saw him and those who didn’t were dead with their heads away from their body. His gaze fell over the children and women standing on one side shivering. Children were crying and he enjoyed that. He enjoyed seeing them in pain just by his sight.
He looked at all the women one by one but none of them made his cock even twitch. Disappointed, he sat back on the horse and started towards the village.
...
Ruby ran towards her little brother and tried to catch him as he giggled and laughed. Her face stretched to a smile as she caught him and started smothering him with kisses. He squealed and giggled making her laugh harder.
" Ruby ! Dinner is ready !” Her grandmother shouted . Ruby and little Mane hurried inside as the smell of potatoes and chicken curry filled their room. Mane and Ruby devoured their food. Ruby glanced at her grandmother and saw her frowning.
" Are you alright granny?” She asked and her startled grandmother nodded .
Ruby knew something was wrong but she didn’t want to ask her anything in front of Mane so she ate her dinner quietly. She gathered all the dishes and started washing them. She saw that they were out of eggs so she quickly went outside to get some.
She closed the door behind and stood frozen when she saw the King on his horse. She saw a few people bow their heads and stand to a side as well. She quickly bowed and looked down not daring to look at him. Relief filled her when he passed and she gazed at his back as he became tinier and tinier with each passing second.
She pulled Mane closer to her and fell asleep that night not knowing the danger looming over her.
