“This Queen will ruin us!”

Daniel whipped out his sword and pointed it at the man’s throat.

Alessandria couldn’t blame her brother. Then she smiled as Ares made his next mistake.

He knocked the sword aside and grabbed Daniel.

Daniel screamed.

Pushing Ares’ hands away before diving on him. Smashing his fists into his face.

Alessandria nor the Queen was going to stop him.

The Dominicus Procurator even thought she saw the Queen smile.

“Daniel enough,” Harrison said as he walked over.

Daniel’s ears picked at the sound of Harrison’s voice and he begruntling complied.

Harrison stopped next to Daniel and sneered at Ares.

“Ha. You freaks are just lap dogs for one another,”

Harrison punched Ares’ in the nose. Breaking it. Blood poured from the shattered nose.

Ares went for Harrison.

“Enough!” Alessandria commanded.

Ares backed down but spat at Daniel.

“I would be less concerned about Daniel Fireheart if I was you,” the Queen coldly stated. “You were in charge of security today. Look around you. Assassins lay dead at my feet. Assassins that never should have been here,”

“Your majesty, this is clearly the work of Mortisical. Correct your mistake and let’s fight them,”

Alessandria rolled her eyes as she looked at a male corpse with fair tanned skin and well-kept features.

“The Queen made no mistake. These men lack the purple taint in their skin that Mortisicals do,”

Ares spat at Alessandria.

Daniel’s dulled blade spun faster.

“Harrison please take Daniel to his quarters. Daniel, I will speak with you later,”

Both Harrison and Daniel nodded.

As they walked away, Daniel shouted: “I rejected your military contract Lord Ares,”

The Guards slammed the doors behind Daniel and Harrison.

“What contract?” the Queen bit.

Alessandria noticed the Guards tensing.

“Your majesty that freak is lying,”

“My brother does not lie,”
