CHAPTER THIRTEEN
* * *
Trembling involuntarily, “Warner! Stop! Let her go! She is my sister!” Althalos cried out at the moment when Keira stopped windmilling her arms, then she averted her eyes to one side to look at her brother and extended her arm toward him.
But it was like Warner was deaf. Blinded by resentment that lashed him into a frenzy of rage, he just won’t listen.
“Don’t make me do this!” Althalos levelled his sword at his face, sobbing. “Take your hands off her. Now.”
And, all of a sudden, Warner fell to his knee as a water sphere that loomed out of nowhere magically hit him in the back of his knee, compelling him to release his hands on Keira’s throat.
“Come to my side,” Dulais, sitting on a dining table with both legs hanging on the edge of it, said to Keira weakly, and she listened.
“Althy, come here!” yelled Keira.
Looking at the kneeling man, Althalos lowered his sword and remained silent until Warner got up slowly with a bemused look on his sweating face, “Warner, are you okay?”
“I...I have done what!? What have I done!?” he sputtered and looked back at Althalos.
Frowned slightly, “You tried to strangle me,” Keira accused calmly, lifting her head up to show him the deep red mark that encircled her fair-skinned neck.
Turned around his head to find out who spoke, he literally stopped breathing when he recognized her as the nice-looking girl he met outside the guard station. “Look, I’m really really sorry for what I have done to you,” Warner apologized sincerely and bowed down, rubbing his chin nervously. “I didn’t know what I was doing. Please accept my apology. I would do anything to make it up to you.”
“You fool! You impetuous fool!” said Dulais, his voice raspy, coughing. “You were possessed by hatred. And you almost broke her neck.”
“I won’t make the same mistake again,” replied Warner confidently, and pounded his chest. “But I wonder where the bandits have gone. I am certain that some of them stayed behind in here when the others were leaving before dawn. I saw it with my own eyes.”
“I have already taken care of them before you two came in, but they managed to escape,” said Dulais. “There were two of them. One of them has a strange eagle tattoo on his neck, and the other one is your grandfather.”
Warner mocked instantaneously. “Really?” he said.
“Yes. I spoke to him.”
“And what did he say?” Warner said, in a dubious tone, like he was wondering why he would fabricate such a ridiculous story. “Do you not know he is a honourable man who was once the village head? I don’t believe you.”
“I know that.”
“Then what makes you think I would believe you, traveller?”
“I saw him standing right there.” Dulais pointed to the hallway. “Talking to me.”
“Stop insulting and defaming him!” Warner warned him, glaring at him. “Why would he do that!? Why would a man of honour betray us? It doesn’t make any sense, let alone the fact that the village rule forbids it.
