Chapter 22: They asked for blood.
The secondary consort’s governess scoffed, she was backed by the king's favorite wife, who was this unloved
crown princess to act all high and mighty? No matter how powerful the Thorin family was, Sigrid was now the
wife of the crown prince, a member of the royal house.
She had to learn the rules and know when to bow her head. It would have been different if Roland had wed her
sincerely but everyone knew he had been forced. No matter what was done to her, her husband would not step
up for her.
As for the queen, as long as Sigrid was useless to Roland, she would not cout to defend her.
"It seems, you have not been taught the rules of the royal family, | find you quite rude so | will begin your
lessons today. If there is no blood on those sheets, you will have to pay the price for failing to do your duty in
contributing to the royal lineage. Don’t you know that is is considered a crime?"
Once again, Sigrid asked, "Are you sure that you want to see blood?"
The governess responded dominantly, "Hmph, if | do not see blood today...."
"Very well." Sigrid cut in.
She took a step back, putting a small distance between herself and the governess, then she unfolded the fan and
threw her hand out.
A swishing sound cut through the air, one that was familiar to that of a sword, then, warm blood splashed onto
the faces of sservants.
For a few moments, there was utter silence in the room, everyone went still, especially the servants that were
examining the sheets, and then one of them opened her mouth and screamed.
One horrified scream turned into two and two turned into three, two servants run out of the room while two of
the consorts red knights rushed inside with swords drawn.
They were met with the sight of the consort’s governess wailing in pain, her right arm was on the ground and
where it had once been, blood was spurting out. She was trying to stop the bleeding with one hand but it was not
working.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSigrid was standing still, a few drops of blood had fallen onto her face, a few wisps of her hair were floating in the
air, she had a creepy smile on her face.
"Who has done this?" One of the red knights asked.
"Me." Sigrid answered confidently, moving her fan from left to right slowly, fanning herself as if it was hot in the
room which it was not. "She wanted to see blood, | asked her this question twice and her answer was the same.
So.." she smiled like a wolf. "I gave her what she wanted."
She turned her heal and looked at Lanai, "Bring a white sheet and wipe all the blood on the ground, you can send
it to the secondary consort when you are finished, | am certain that she will happy with what she asked for.
If the blood is not enough, she has one more arm, two legs, a heart and more, any of them can work. | think an
entire sheet of blood is better than a few measly drops."
The governess’s head fell back and she fell to the ground, completely unconscious.
The red knights approached her, one moving to her head and another her feet, they planned to carry her out it
seemed.
"Did | say that you could leave?" Sigrid questioned.
The two knights turned to her, the one that was standing next to the governess’s feet answered, "You have no
right to command us."
"lI am the crown princess, sunruly servants broke into my private bedroom and draggedout of my bed
half dressed. | am not sure what their intentions were but to my thinking it was their intention to embarrass me.
As you can see, | am not in a very decent state of dressing, the two of you have committed a crby looking at
me. | wonder what the king will say when he finds out that two men were inside my private chambers when |
was half-naked.
Perhaps your intention was to molest me, the crown princess."
The two red knights fell to their knees immediately.
"Crown princess, please don’t confuse right for wrong, we simply rushed in here because of the screams, we
were worried that an assailant had made their way into your private chambers.."
"Oh." she jumped in. "An assailant, one whose arrival coincided with yours, what a coincidence. Now that you
mention it, | think two assailant’s dressed in the uniform of red knights broke into my bedroom. They must have
been cfor the crown prince, how brave of them to try to murder a member of the royal family."
"Your highness..." they called out..
"Cosmos." Sigrid called out loudly in a stern voice.
As he was her personal bodyguard, he was outside and he had deliberately allowed the unruly servants cin.
The plot had to develop in order for the bank to get what it desired.

"Can | use whatever means to get the information out of them?" he asked.
"Be efficient and widen the scope of your questioning, they should reveal as much as information as possible on
their master."
Cosmos did not move, he waved a hand and Sigrid’s other knights rushed into the bedroom, taking the red
knights away at sword point.
They did not put up a fight, they knew the secondary consort or the queen would send someone for them. Red
knights were very valuable to the kingdom, sof the most highly trained soldiers of Eldoria.
When Sigrid turned around, she saw the rest of the servants that had disturbed her morning sleep. The ones that
had run out had also been brought back by Cosmos and they were all trembling.
She did not feel one bit of mercy for them, in Eldoria the strong thrived but the weak were eaten, especially in
the royal family.
