Chapter 114
"Alastor, watch her," Killian ordered his right-hand man.
"Sure," Alastor muttered, annoyed he would not be able to join in the fight. He did not leave the north just to offer Killian advice he was not listening to.
"Um, doesn’t he need a sword?" Amelia asked Alastor out of concern when Killian approached the gates without a weapon in his hands or on him.
"Have you already forgotten who your husband-to-be is?" Alastor replied in a bored tone. "These weak people do not require a lot of skill for him to take down and if he wants a weapon, he’ll take it. Just like that," he said at the same time Killian busted open the gates and stole a sword from one of the men inside then turned around and stabbed him with it.
"You should turn around if you do not wish to see," Alastor paused, surprised by the sight of the princess beside him. He expected her to be afraid of the sight of Killian mercilessly killing anyone standing in his way but to Alastors surprise, the princess looked entertained by it. When she bit her lip, he had an idea of what was running through her head.
Amelia was amazed by how easily Killian had fought his way inside the gates. Turned out, he did not like the comment about being called a brute. Today she got to see a glimpse of why he was called the war demon. People were right to bite their tongues whenever Killian was in their presence.
"Ha," she could not refrain from laughing when Killian dragged Luke by his feet toward the same gate he had closed a moment ago. It was exciting to see that the man who did not listen to her orders a moment ago was now screaming like a newborn baby as Killian dragged him. ’Instead of being like Killian, I should learn to control my future husband,’ she thought.
If she could use Killian to get rid of her enemies she would be unstoppable. She did not have the physical strength to make anyone afraid of her. She only had her common sense to outsmart them but with Killian by her side ready to kill anyone, she was not lacking in the strength department.
"Here," Killian tossed Luke to her feet. His lower body and arms were covered in splashes of blood.
