Chapter 20

There were screams of terror and cries of women and children.

Serena could feel their pain, their fear from where she stood.

The sky thundered in acknowledgment.

" Rufus is already here," Philip announced glancing at them all. They navigated their way through the secret tunnels to the kingdom.

The tunnel was broad for them to pass through. when they got to the end of it, they saw it was locked.

"We need to spread out if we are to get in hastily," Troy said glancing at the others." The women shall stay ".

" I shall not, ".Serena said looking up." I'll fight, together we will".

Her objections seemed to affect the others.

" if Serena stays, we stay too".

" Serena" Prince Philip murmured facing her.

" you can't stop me now Philip. he murdered my family. I need to face him".

" We both lost the ones we loved"

" I'm aware".

She went close to him to stroke his cheeks.

" Serena."
