CHAPTER 9
Tanner
âI am letting you lot know if I ever see anyone of you again Iâll kill you,â Tanner said matter of factly. âYou took my Mary Nance and saw to it I was punished because I was not gobsmacked about it. I will kill you, Gerty and Jennifer on sight if I ever catch you and her in the same area again. I donât care about the situation.â Tanner eyed his companions after the damn parade he had to endure when he reached the city. The Regent must have been trying to butter him up, Tanner thought. He could get pissed later, he would grab his Mary and head back to Kol as fast as his horse would take him after meeting up with Stephen. Tanner walked into the palace where the Regent greeted him along with the Queen, Princess Caroline and Golden.
âHere is our champion, I heard if it wasnât for you everyone on the mission would have died,â the Regent said smiling. âWe will have the ceremony later but I want to give you this,â the Regent said as he slapped a rolled up piece of parchment in Tannerâs hand. âIt is a title giving you my former lands. I never had a son so everything is yours outright Tanner. Or should I call you the Earl of Tox now?â
âYou must have lost the plot,â Tanner said as he threw his papers down. âI donât give one ratâs ass about some title. I want my Mary and then I am getting as far away from you as possible.â
âOf course you can see Mary, Tanner,â the Regent said somewhat less happily as he picked up the paperwork. âHowever donât be a fool, your childrenâs children might need a hand up. Being nobles could make sure they wouldnât struggle. Take the papers and Iâll lead you to your wife.â
Tanner reluctantly took the papers and followed the Regent up to the west tower on the third story. They had Mary high up like some fairy princess Tanner thought. He wouldnât tease her about it, he just wanted to hold her. The Regent stopped at her door as Tanner heard a gasp followed by shuffling feet.
âIf this is some kind of set up youâre a dead man,â Tanner said as he drew his sword and grabbed the Regent by the back of his neck and pushed him through the door. Tanner walked inside and saw a sight that would live with him for as long as he drew breath. Lying on the floor with blood leaking out of her neck was his Mary, her eyes were closed as Todd stood over her with two guards. Tanner let the Regent go then, too shocked to move or even breathe.
âWhat has happened here?â the Regent screamed as he pushed the men out of the way and went to Mary. âDid any of you call the healers? Give me something to stop the bleeding and fucking answer my damn question, what happened to her?â
âShe, she slit her own throatâ Todd said meekly as Tanner snapped out of it.
