Lord First Citizen Vincenzo winced. His fist hurt. That damn maid had such a strong jaw.
Teresa was sitting on the tiles, bleeding on them, holding her mouth and crying. But just before he had shattered her teeth, she had told him what he needed to know.
The Swan!
“My Lord the First, what do you want to do with those two?” Senes, his Belgorian sheriff, asked, pointing at the trussed figures just outside the door to his office. One was an adjoint in his service, and the other some stupid boy from Borano. If his bullies had done their job in ferreting out the truth, these two had helped his daughter sneak out from the estate.
Vincenzo lifted his chin. “I do not rid them anymore. Get rid of them.”
The muffled cries in their mouth rags annoyed him for a moment before Senes drew his shivon and pierced them through the chest, one two — more blood on the tiles.
Vincenzo flicked his fingers. A very quiet servant knelt on the marble and began mopping the floor.
WOW! The characters here do not pull their punches, indeed – both figuratively and in reality!
Intriguing teaser…. 🙂
