Chapter 98
(Punishment of Sins)

Amber’s POV
Walking along the hallway without be noticed was a bit easy for me, I passed by some guards who didn’t bother checking for any slight difference with the way walk considering the fact that I am a woman.

Though we have female warriors, but none of them work in the palace as guards. The hood over my head also did a good job; the long cloak was able to hide the deadly weapon I took along.

The only problem I have was getting through the guards at the dungeon point; they are well train to detect any foul play. I won’t need to get answers from them, slitting their throats from a safe distance will be a better option.

Thanks to my perfect skills in bows and arrow, I will forever remember Hunter in that aspect, he taught me how to use it well, and I got perfect in it, even more than him.

“Hey you there…halt” I heard a voice yelled out from behind. I have just passed the first check point that leads to the entrance of the dungeon; though the main entrance is still few steps away. I paused, not looking back; my hand went directly to my weapon. I kept a good stance waiting for the guard to come closer; why is he wasting much time doing that?

“Turn around now…reveal your identity” He spoke out. I let out a croak smile behind the hood, and turned slowly. I took off the hood in a slow motion and heard him gasp. I smirked

“My queen…” He was about saying, his weapon which was pointed at me earlier was beginning to lose target. I didn’t allow him to complete the words, using the moment as my target. The weapon in my hand clicked, and with a swift motion, the arrow flew out of the bow piercing into his throat. He groaned and landed on his knees.

This might have alerted the others who were in the same check point with him; they came rushing at me. I fired three arrows at a time; sending each to its required destination. They were all dead in a second; now you know how good I am.

There was no more time left for me; I need to make this quick, the thirst for vengeance is about ripping my tongue apart. The fight continued as blood spilled along the path I took; I make sure I never miss a target until I got to the main entrance.

I hid in a bent corner and wait for a while for the guards who were after me to pass. They checked every nook and cranny for me, but were too dump to see where I hid. After they had left to check further; I made my way to the dungeon room; only two guards where there to guard; I knock them down in half a sec and made my way to Thana’s cage. She was looking like a half dead victim; I will quicken her journey to the grave.

She felt my presence and looked up. I could see a little fear in her eyes, which was filled with tears. I love the view in front of me; I want her to be scared of me; I want her to plead for her life; but will never give her the chance to live again, just like the way my father never got a chance.

“What else do you want from me Amber…you have succeeded in stripping me off my title right?” She croaked. I smiled

“I wish I still have the opportunity to do that once again; but my dad’s killer will never go unpunished, and you will surely die by my hands Thana”

She laughed out hieratically before looking up to me again

“Then why waste much time; get on with it already. By the way, I sent an assassin to ki*ll your dad, because he was going to leak out my secret which is something I don’t want. He was killed with a gun; a bullet piercing into his stubborn skull..ahhaha..and many believed he killed himself. Isn’t that an interesting story?” She smirked.

My blood boiled at a high degree, those words of hers just added more to my anger.
“You bas***d” I gritted. Just then, I heard distance voice from those guards, they will soon to be coming closer

“Greet your husband’s a$$ for me”

I clicked on the string and fired the arrow; I was so fast that I didn’t have the time to check the location it hits because a guard had already entered, and others followed. All I know is that the arrow pierced into her body, pushing her backward.

I took to my jumping skills, climbing up the walls in a super speed as I managed to make my way out of the dungeon, but not without sending a number of my arrows into the air; knocking down the unfortunate ones.

If I ever get caught, then I will surely be executed. But that won’t be possible because I have fulfilled my dad’s wish, all I need is to end it all; I have nothing more to live for, and I will never surrender; I will not die by the hands of D’Arcy, never.

Maneuvering my way into my room; I locked the doors hurriedly but it was followed by a loud bang

“He mustn’t hurt the queen…don’t let him escape” I heard a commanding voice from outside; they still haven’t noticed my identity; but that will only happen when they break the door. I won’t wait for that.

“Dad..i have revenged your death; now, I am about to make mine. Accept my soul dear goddess, for I never wish to do this on my own free will” I muttered, uncapping a small bottle containing deadly poison which can burn up a being from the inside; decaying the internal organ.

I use this poison mostly whenever I go hurting; dipping my arrows into it and fire it at any animal, if I don’t want to chase it in my vampire form. The poison doesn’t take long to ki*ll its victim; it will be the best way to ki*ll a vampire from the inside, because the outer skin might react negatively.

I gulped down the whole content at a go, and waited for its action to begin. I felt a sharp pain stuck my stomach making blood spill out of my nostril and mouth. I coughed out more bloods groaning in pains; and just then, the door to my room flung open, as the guards trooped in. My vision was already blurry; and the last thing I ever heard in life was

“Your highness!!”
~~~~~
“Your highness, we have a problem” A guard ran into D’Arcy’s chambers to tell him about the current situation. He and Carlos were actually having a free time talking about certain things when the news came in

“What is it” He asked, getting on his feet

“There was an intruder, we were thinking it was a spy from another kingdom, but got something else. She had killed more than a dozen men; and one of the prisoners is injured.” He muttered

“F**k” D’Arcy cursed, picking up his jacket; he wore it on before turning to Carlos.

“We will talk tomorrow” he noted and went out with the guard

“Who got injured” He asked, as they walk down the dungeon in haste. He could see blood stain across the wall of the hallway and the ground. He was too busy in a deep talk with Carlos to not have heard anything. Though his chamber is a bit far from where the event took place.

“The mother queen” The guard replied
“What? And the spy?”
“It’s the queen”

“Amber?” D’Arcy thought in his mind, but wasn’t sure about what the guard had said. They got to the dungeon, Thana’s cage, and met her in pains, groaning.

“The queen had made use of a deadly weapon; the arrow she used, slit through the throats of our men, rendering them dead on the spot, never giving them the chance to heal. The mother queen here had a narrow escape, queen Amber never misses her target.” One of the warriors who was checking out the cage muttered. D’Arcy nodded and went closer to Thana’s cage. She was still in pain; the arrow struck deep into her right shoulder

“Heal yourself” He muttered; she looked up to him with tear stricken eyes and smiled
“I rather bleed to death” She snapped
He chuckled

“No..you won’t, because you will still have to face the council and serve your punishment. So let’s say the goddess never wanted you to die now, because you need to face the consequences of your actions; you will die slowly Thana whether you like it or not”

He went in and pulled out the arrow, she groaned loudly as her skin began to close up against her wish. She looked up angrily at him, while he smirked.

“Don’t hurt her” She muttered. He knew who she was referring to

“My daughter is innocent of all I have done; let her go” She stated; knowing that if she doesn’t plead for Jezebel’s sake, then she will also be wiped off the earth. She had done a very terrible thing which will also cost not just her life, but the lives of her descendant.”

“I don’t make promises. You will face the council soon” D’Arcy replied and walked out. He was directed to Amber’s chambers, nothing has been touched; they guards wanted him to see things for himself. They met the guard she had killed half naked, her own body curled on the cold floor, soaked in her own blood. She had bled to death.

“Pick up the corpse and burn it outside the city” D’Arcy ordered; the guards did exactly.

Celeste’s POV
I just don’t know what to feel; it’s just so strange. You might be wondering why I said that; well, about yesterday, and what Lazarus told me. I still can’t believe he isn’t my blood brothers; he had never acted like he wasn’t. He took me like I was his flesh and blood; cared for me like I was his mate and treated me like a princess that I truly am.

But it hurt so much to find out the truth about my real family now; I can’t believe I have been lied to all this while. Even my mother was alive, my dad too but I couldn’t live as the person that I am; the princess of Vampic fall. Should I be happy or sad?

I really wanted Lazarus to be my blood brother, in the same way I wish to be a princess. How I wished I had met with the king before he died. If wishes were horses, beggars will ride. I can’t blame them for hiding it away from me; it was for my own good. Things weren’t smooth at all as at that time, and the fact that Onyx was still alive, it was gonna be complicated.

Right now, I’m standing at the door of her chambers. Yea, we now live in the palace, though we haven’t been made known to the public; that will be during D’Arcy’s coronation. Can’t believe I am his twin. I placed a soft knock on the door and was ushered in.

A sweet smell of tea welcomed me in; mum could be seen stirring something in a teapot, might be the tea. She turned to stare at me and smiled

“Celeste darling…come here” She muttered in a sweet voice. I walked closer to her, as she engaged me in a brief hug. I still don’t know while I came in here, but just felt like talking to someone and she is the best option; she is my mum isn’t it.

We were yet to break the hug when the door opened with D’Arcy coming in. We disengaged and faced him
“Wow, my two babies coming in almost the same time..isn’t that amazing” She stated. D’Arcy smiled, going to peck her forehead

“Hey mum” He stated, and smiled at me. I returned the smile and that was all.. yea, we are twins, but I just don’t know how this will work out. There are intervals I will wanna bow to him, but he stops me, saying we are equal rank as at now, well until he becomes king, when due respect is expected to be shown.

“Is there any problem” Mum asked.
“Nahh…just came to check on you” he replied her

“Are you ok” he asked, referring to me” I nodded
“Yes..thanks”

Mum grabbed the both of our hands, she cleared her throat

“I believe the goddess made you both come in here this moment, and since it’s just us, I think now is the right time to say this. I’m really sorry for all I have caused you both right from when you are little. I know I wasn’t the best mother, but I promise to make it up to you both.

It’s not an easy thing being separated from birth, but letting go of you…especially you Celeste…it was not the right thing to. I shouldn’t have abandoned you at any cost…please…I’m so sorry…and you too D’Arcy” She cried out, touching our cheeks

“Hey mum..come on..you shouldn’t blame yourself for anything that happened. It was meant to be” D’Arcy noted, and looked at me. I got the message

“Yes mum..i believe that everything happened for a reason. All we should be happy for now, is that we are all alive and now one big family; though I wish I had met father…in person” I muttered sadly
They nodded

“He will always be here in your heart. And I promise to be more of a mother and father to you baby” Mum noted

“We promise to be good children, and i..erm…also promise to be a better brother to you” D’Arcy stared at me. I smiled out

“Me too..as a better sister”

Mum busted unto tears again, but this time, it was tears of joy. I wasn’t exempted; it’s a good thing to be with your true family. We shared a group hug, making it last for a while.

“Erm…mum..i won’t leave without having a taste of that hot tea; it’s aroma is alluring” I giggled
She busted into laughter

“Sure darling…come on, let’s feast on it” She yelled out with glee
~~~~~
Two Days Later~
Jezebel rushed into the toilet again, puking a large content down the WC; she still doesn’t know the cause of her sudden feverish feelings and the consistent vomits. She felt lightheaded after getting up, and managed to get back into her room.

Just then, she heard a crowd of voices from below, down in the kingdom. Something was happening out there, but she can’t leave to check it out because of the guards placed at her door.

She went directly to her large windows and opened it. The widow is actually facing the kingdom’s square; she can easily watch anything going on over there from her room.

She saw a mob of crowd following a good number of guards dragging out someone in chains. She looked clearly and saw her mother, pulled along. Her heart stopped its beats.

She knows what is about to happen; they are taking her to the center of the square where she will be killed in front of the whole kingdom, stripped n@ked and burnt after series of beatings.

“No…no!!!! this isn’t happening” She muttered in a loud whisper. Even if she hated her mum for what she had done, she doesn’t wish her to die this way. She ran towards the door to make her way out, but it opened immediately before she got to it, and D’Arcy stepped in with some guards and her maids.

“Pick up the necessary things she will need” he ordered the maids, as they went about, bringing out all her cloths from the wardrobe, her jewelries, and everything she has as a princess.

“No…what’s all this, what are you doing” She yelled
“You are leaving…”

“What? I’m a princess..i can’t leave the palace…where do you want me to go to?” she cried out
“Don’t worry, everything is set, you will be stripped off your title..mind you, you were never a royal to begin with. You will now live among the people, as a flaw citizen of Vampic Fall.”

“You can’t do this to me D’Arcy…you can’t” She yelled

“Shut your f**king mouth up. You should be grateful that I am letting you go, against the wish of the council. According to the law you are supposed to be eliminated alongside your mother; but I am not just fulfilling her request, I am doing this because of the good heart that I have. It’s either you get killed or leave this palace in one piece.” He snorted. She sobbed loudly

How will she cope with no maids, no mother, no father, no brother, no friend, just no one. She thought
“You will be assigned a maid..” D’Arcy was still speaking when she rushed down to the toilet again to throw up. He sighed, wondering what went wrong with her.

She finished throwing up and washed her face. The announcement horn was blown as the voice of Elder Egeus came up. Jezebel walked back to the window to watch the scene. Thana had already been stripped to her birthday suit, tied to a stake.

“Dear citizens of Vampic fall; we are gathered here today to witness the pushiness of the ex-queen of this kingdom, who had committed a grievous offence. According to evidence, she killed the great king Orpheus, Elder Emmett and had cheated on the king by mating with Onyx, bearing a child for him; the princess Jezebel. These are great offenses, and according to the law, a murderer will also be murdered.

But first, she will face the pains slowly, by being lashed a hundred strokes with the metal blades.” He shouted out for the crowd to hear. At this time, the whole kingdom was in silence, as everyone came to watch the scene. D’Arcy walked closer to the window to watch too, while Jezebel’s sob filled his ears.

She watched every stroke that lands on her back as her shrilling scream pierced her heart. After the hundredth stroke, the stake was set on fire.

“Arghhh” Thana’s scream blasted into the ears of many; Jezebel screamed along with tears gushing down her eyes. Thana’s scream diminished when she became dust and went with the wind; silence followed, that even the sound of a pin would be heard if dropped

“My prince….we are done” One of the maids muttered. He nodded and faced the guards
“Take everything out, including her”

Jezebel was too weak to even resist, she felt mad watching the death scene of her mum. And just as they stepped out of the palace with her, an announcement was made round the kingdom

“The princess, Jezebel, is hereby stripped off her royal title as ‘Princess’ and is hereby considered a flaw citizen of Vampic Fall.”

They placed her and her properties into a carriage, riding it out of the palace gate.
