Nothing but a pawn

"Your Royal Highness!"

The yell of the warrior disturbed the Second Prince who was in the middle of process of conquering the capital. The blood spatters on his face petrified people enough already. "What?!" In exasperation, Alek shouted back. Scaring the warrior away. "I.. I received the news from the palace about Her Highness"

As soon as he heard the name of his woman, Alek stopped stabbing the person in front of him. He pulled the blade out. Facing the warrior with a scowl displayed across his face. Why would there be news about the young woman? There would be no news if she was succeeding in taking the whole palace down.

"What happened to her?!" Alek raised his tone. Making the warrior quivered in fear. He lowered his head with eyes shut tightly. "The Archduke... Oliver Jack and the Queen of Edith Kingdom, Grace Dair appeared, Your Royal Highness. They are conquering palace now. Her Highness... she is getting burned alive by them"
