Chapter Ten
As night fell over Edenhart, and darkness settled in, I knew what I had to do. Earlier in the day, Edony dispatched the constables and her guards to arrest anyone who refused to relent their assets. The town jail started to fill up with angry aristocrats, and I guessed that inside they probably held about four or five, but this was just the beginning. A few of the aristocrats complied with the Duchessâ decree, and more consorts, servants, and workers were sent out to the duchy. Weâd even gotten notices from the she-wolfâs couriers that banknotes had been dispatched to the duchy.
I sat in the front seat of the wagon with Daisy, while Valerie and Kleeia laid low in the back. We were headed for the city, more specifically the jail and the aristocrats held there.
âSo, whatâs the plan, Charles?â Valerie asked from the back of the wagon.
âWeâre going to go in and take an aristocrat,â I grunted. âI have my sights set on Reanne Florentine, but⦠since sheâs the leader of this little uprising, I donât think that would be wise.â
âHow so?â Kleeia probed.
âPeople are going to notice that sheâs missing,â I uttered. âBut⦠Iâm not sure if that matters. No matter what aristocrat we take, someone is going to notice and tell the others.â
âSo, maybe one of the less powerful ones?â the feline-woman asked.
âI thinkâ¦â Daisy murmured. âWe should take the twins. They were jailed along with their aunt while their house was being cleared of items. Before Reanne stopped them, they were willing to hand over their assets, and Iâm sure if we told them theyâd be doing a service for the Duchess, theyâd willingly help us.â
âWeâll see who theyâve brought in when we get there,â I explained, âand then decide who to take. Iâm not sure about the girls⦠Theyâre essentially Reanneâs meal tickets, and if we took them, sheâd probably lose her damn mind in her jail cell.â
âBut why does that matter?â the nix-woman asked.
âI want everything as peaceful as possible,â I stated. âIf thereâs unnecessary bloodshed, then there will be fewer aristocrats to transform, and weâll have a smaller army to take on the Queen.â
âAhhhh,â the turquoise-haired woman murmured. âI understand now.â
âWhat are we going to do when we get there?â Daisy asked.
âI think itâs best if we sneak in,â I told them. âIf we go in and tell the constables that weâve been sent there from the Duchess, thereâs proof and witnesses to our plan. If we sneak in using Valerieâs invisibility, itâll look as if one of the aristocrats has escaped.â
âI think thatâs best,â the bear-girl nodded. âIf we went in, took an aristocrat, and then brought them back, the constables would be suspicious.â
âButâ¦â Kleeia pondered. âWould they really care? The constables work for Edonyâ¦â
âTheyâd undoubtedly care,â I chuckled. âWe may go around snatching up aristocrats and transforming them, but itâs still illegal to kill a noble, even Edony knows that. If the constables even suspect that weâve harmed an aristocrat, theyâll throw all of us into cells before the morning comes.
