Her hands pulled his stupid hair back before trying to choke him but her hand couldn't wrap around his neck instead she began to draw out his breath and Eason choked and coughed feeling life being drawn from him.

Using one hand he threw her away and she landed hard on the wall before falling to the floor, her eyes squeezed from the pain before she could stand up Eason grabbed her neck choking her against the wall.

"Attacking me in on my own kingdom are you asking for death?" He asked his hands tightening around her neck cutting off her breath as his eyes tried to draw her soul but couldn't all of a sudden a great force pushed him back to the opposite wall and she began coughing her eyes watered from lack of breath when she looked up Eason was glaring at her.

"Get out" he ordered.

"My veil" she said standing up and he looked down at the determined woman before letting out a chuckle.

"It's probably somewhere in the woods if you are so desperate on finding it" Eason said and she smiled before leaving the room.

When she had gone Eason brought out the veil and frowned there was something on the veil he recognized, a symbol from when he was a child.

He had been taught about the servants of a demon Lord having such symbol and the symbol was on her veil.

Who was She? He asked himself.

........

"The Prince must come down!" People shouted.

"Bring him down!!" Another group shouted.

"KILL HIM!!" some other people shouted.

Zed was asleep with Skye in his arms when he heard the commotion outside.

"Zed?" Skye whispered.

"Sleep some more I will be back" he assured and soon as he came outside he saw Pharian.

"What's happening?" He asked.

"The people are protesting that they don't want you as their ruler anymore" Pharian reported and Zed's eyes narrowed.

"Who gave them such confidence?" Zed asked.

"There seems to be a woman leading them and the Elders and kingsmen await you in the throne room" Pharian replied and Zed nodded.

"Mingle with the people and find out exactly what is going on" Zed ordered and Pharian nodded disappearing.

"My Lord" the people in the throne room bowed in unison as he entered but he could hear the mocking tone from some of them.

"It seems you enjoy visiting the castle what is the problem?" Zed asked.

"Elder Marvin was found dead and his wife claimed to have heard him speaking to you" An elder said and Zed smiled.

"But she did not see me, I believe if I was indeed there somebody would have seen me I couldn't have walked all the way there and they didn't see a carriage either" Zed said and the people in the room looked at each other.

"A few people said they saw you in the area sire" a kingsmen said and Zed nodded.

"Bring them" he replied and the doors opened as two men walked inside.

"Peter, Owen repeat what you told us infront of the Prince" an elder ordered.

"My Lord we saw you getting down from a local carriage before entering elder Marvin's house" the man Peter spoke.

"The two of you at the same time?" Zed asked.

"No sire at different times" Peter replied.

"If I drove in the local carriage the coachman should recall the king riding in his carriage shouldn't he?" Zed asked.

"Sire I was the coachman who drove you that day" Owen said and Zed smiled.

"You were? And what did you say when you saw me?" He asked.

"I was surprised my Lord I bowed and asked where you were going" owen replied.

"Owen I suggest you tell the truth before it is too late" Zed warned.

"I am only speaking the truth my lord" Owen replied making Zed smile more.

"And I paid you did I not?" Zed asked.

"Ye..yes Sire you gave me twenty gold coins when the ride didn't even cause up to ten bronze coins" owen said and out of no where a dagger flew and cut Owen's ear the man screamed and blood gushed out the Elders and kingsmen turned to look at Zed whose position remained the same but they already knew he was the one that threw the dagger.

"The Prince doesn't use gold coins only silver" a kingsmen pointed out and Zed smiled at him.

"Peter you saw me come down from Owen's carriage? " Zed asked again.

"Y...yes My lord" Peter said and Zed laughed.
