Mistress Of Enchanting Dragon

Chapter 194 - Arla's Bravery

The fears that were installed by Gwen's family were rooted deeper inside Arla's bones. And no matter how much good life she was living under Silja's care, it wasn't possible to forget the years of torture in just time of few weeks.

Arla started to push her body back as she frantically tried to get away from Gwen's grip.

Seeing her reaction a satisfactory smile spread on Gwen's face.

Silja may be the owner of this dirty slave now but the fear and command she has on the slave girl were still intact.

But Gwen hasn't forgotten the humiliation she has felt when Silja has snatched this slave girl from her and this was the best time to take that revenge.

Arla was crawling back in fear while Gwen was moving forward with a crazy smile on her face.

In Arla's eyes, Gwen was no different than the devil of hell. She knew that her end was coming.

Seeing her trembling body and fear on her face Gwen became even more excited.

She snatched the dagger from the man then she swung it ruthlessly.

With a snap, she slashed on Arla's hand and blood spurted out smearing Arla's hand and clothes.

But Gwen didn't get the satisfaction she wanted because Arla didn't make even a single sound from her mouth even after such a big wound.

That made Gwen even more ruthless and crazy. 

And in the next second without mercy, she attacked Arla a few more times. Attacking and injuring her different parts of the body.

In just a matter of minutes, Arla's whole body has become a bloody mess.

But the girl was so silent that she didn't say anything.

Actually, it wasn't that Arla wasn't feeling any pain. Rather she was diverting their attention from Silja.

She knew that as long as their attention was on her they wouldn't harm Silja. And by doing this she was stalling time for their saviours.

The news of kidnapping must have already reached the prince and king. So they must be on their way to find. If she could manage to stop these people from doing something bad for some time she might be able to give some time for royal guards to find and save Silja.

And thus she didn't refute any of Gwen's attacks but kept enduring

And in her craziness, Gwen didn't realize that she lost so much time chasing behind the slave girl.

It wasn't until one of the men who was being frustrated told her to stop that she came to her senses.

"If you keep doing that Royal guards will soon catch us," the one who was looking like the leader pulled Gwen back.

"Don't you dare touch me? Do you even know who I am?" Gwen snapped at the man who had grabbed her hand.

"Huh? It doesn't matter who you are to me. Because if we stayed here any longer we will soon be the prisoners of King Zachary and torture subject of Prince Donovan," the man said sarcastically and sneered.

Gwen pursed her lips hearing that.

"Fine.. fine…" Gwen snorted and started to walk back towards Silja.

"Throw that one in the pond. I want that bi**ch to die," she said looking at Arla who was laying on the ground motionless.

Her whole body was slashed and blood was oozing out. The wounds weren't deep enough to kill her but they were enough to give her immense pain and blood loss.

For a fragile girl like Arla whose body foundation was very weak from the start those wounds were fatal. By staying on Silja's side her health has improved but it can't heal the body which was malnourished for many years.

"Fair enough and what about this Princess?" The man asked, looking at Silja who was still in deep slumber.

"We will take her back. I initially wanted to kill her on the spot but now I think it will be fun to play a little with this human," Gwen smiled dangerously as she said that. But how could she know that the girl she wanted to take back and torture was no ordinary girl?

The man she has hired nodded their head and signalled two men to bring Silja away. 

While the last one walked towards Arla.

Arla was hardly breathing as the man lifted her roughly and started to walk towards the pond.

He wanted to take her in the middle of the pond and kill her with his own hand by drowning himself. 

He was about to take her to the pond when he suddenly heard a growl of dragons around. 

He knew that it was time to flee. So he abounded the plan of drowning Arla himself and instead threw her body in the pond from afar before running away for his dear life.

In his haste, he didn't realize that he hadn't thrown Arla much far and where the girl had landed was quite shallow water.

As the cold water touched her body Arla felt like she was being electrocuted.

She instantly came to her senses and started to use her hands and legs to stay on the surface. And just before she could sink a guard who saw her pulled her out.

.

.

Arla told everything that she knew to Donovan in her broken speech.

By the time she finished Donovan's face was ashen.

He would have never thought that the daughter of a small duke had the guts to pull this stunt.

Rockshir was a small Duchy and the duke of Rockshir wasn't a very bright man. All these years all he has done was just leeching on the king. 

Donovan has ignored the man till now because the matter wasn't of much significance to him. But maybe her negligence has been mistaken as his weakness and that's why they decided to play with him. Thinking that he would not be able to reach them.

But now they shall witness his wreath.

Donovan take control of his emotions and looked at the pale girl laying on the bed.

Arla was speaking non-stop for quite some time and that has exhausted her whole energy.

Her pale face has turned even paler.

"So you don't know where they took the princess?" Donovan questioned and Arla shook her head.

When they left she was half uncouncias and thus she didn't know where they took her lady.

Donovan nodded his head and stood up from the stool.

It doesn't matter if she didn't know because he has more than thousands of ways to get the information.

"Take rest and recuperate well," Donovan said and started to leave.

"Bri.. cough.. cough... bring la. lady back.." but before he could go out he heard the girl muttering behind him.

Donovan was shocked as he turned around.

He looked at the loyal girl and Smiled at her before nodding his head.

Arla closed her eyes in satisfaction.

Of course, he would bring her back. How could he let others touch what was his?

He came out and saw Orphelia standing outside. After instructing her to take care of Arla Donovan left 

After leaving the witch's house Donovan left straight for the wedding venue.

It didn't take him long before he landed in the vast ground of the shrine where all the people were kept.

"Brother…." Samuel walked towards his brother.

"Did you find her?" Abrielle hurriedly asked.

"No," Donovan shook his head without stopping in his tracks.

"No?" Abrielle's eyes widened.

"But I know who is behind this," Donovan said without looking back as he started to walk between the guests.

As everyone saw him the crowd again started to stir in conversation.

Donovan ignored everyone and started to look for the familiar face for whom he was here.

He instantly spotted a couple standing at the end.

He smiled looking at them. The smile was no less than an invitation from the hell's king.

"Send everyone back first," Donovan told Samuel who was standing behind him.

Samuel nodded his head.

"Everyone, everything is fine now and the calamity is resolved. But my brothers have postponed the ceremony. So please go back to your home and wait for further instructions," Samuel said looking at everyone.

His words were humble but his facial expressions didn't match what he was saying.

Everyone was waiting for so long as Samuel said that everyone took a chance to flee but not before saying a few words of sympathy to the queen and king. 

Abrielle and Zachary accepted their words of kindness with absent-mindedness.

Soon the whole ground was empty apart from a few people.

Soon the old couple from Rockshir walked towards the king and queen. But Donovan, who was waiting for them all along, stood in front of them with a bright smile on his lips.
