Chapter 306 - Darkness In The Capital (2)

Ellena closed her eyes and took a deep breath She could still sh she had washed up several tirance herbs that she hung on her waist could not help re rance herbs, those stupid maids dared to look at her in confusion? They ination

They kept saying they didn't sh she clearly did

Hination? Ellena had even asked her rance herbs on containers in her chamber, but she still smelled the blood

Ellena had never killed anyone before If it was up to her, she wouldn't shed blood to kill her target She was an educated woman, after all

Usually, women would use poison to kill their enemy, but in Ellena's case, she had to use a weapon since the witch wanted blood

As soon as Ellena heard from her spy how that wench Emmelyn kept a beautiful knife in her chamber, Ellena knew she wanted to use that knife to kill the queen

It was perfect

Ellena didn't have ood job She was very proud of herself

Ohh the look on Queen Elara's face last night when she realized she was going to die and Emmelyn would be framed for it was priceless

Ellena was proud that she made the queen suffer until her very last breath

Dammit Ellena hated that Queen Elara seemed to love Emmelyn so much, that the queen was devastated when she muttered Emmelyn's name over and over

"You should have loved ME as your daughter-in-law, not that wench!" said Ellena in disgust as she watched the queen bleed to death "Now, it's too late"

"N-no Ellena don't do this" Queen Elara was struggling to breathe, and even though she tried so hard to hang on, she quickly lost the battle Her eyes ide open when she took her last breath They were filled with horror

There were multiple stab wounds on her chest and stoave her quick death

Ellena actually wanted the queen to suffer longer, but sadly, she was running out of tiuards would feel suspicious if the queen didn't show up for a long time Plus, Ellena also still needed to escape

Froo back to the countryside where she was staying with the Prestons So, she couldn't waste time

Therefore, Ellena had to feel satisfied with Queen Elara's quick death At least Ellena kept her promise to Thessalis Morelli to spill blood

That was all that mattered

Uff, but now the smell of blood stayed with her Ellena hated it so badly She just hoped toone

Ellena tried to close her eyes and sleep She was very tired She wondered if they had found the queen and was now chasing Emmelyn

What would Mars think about this? Ellena kne ine how devastated Mars would be when he knew his mother was dead

Ellena felt sorry that Mars would be sad for losing his mother, but she would be there to console hiet over his sadness and pain

Ellena was sure that the queen wouldn'ther son free fro like that?

That was the only way That's the price that Thessalis, the witch, asked Ellena

You see, when Ellena told Mars she had to pay for having his curse lifted by killing so The witch made her kill a person But Ellena omitted the fact that when she left the witch she had not paid the price

The witch only wanted Elara's life And for that to happen, Ellena was given a maximum of one year She had to return to Draed and do her mission If she failed to kill the queen, the curse would return and Mars would die

Ellena couldn't let it happen That's why she worked so hard to accomplish her mission

It was not easy to find the opportunity to kill the queen With the help of Lady Preston, Ellena kept several trusted maids in both the royal palace and the crown prince's castle

So, she could find out everything there was to know about both Queen Elara and Emmelyn

Ever since Elara saw Enized her as the princess from Wintermere, she knew she wanted to frame Emmelyn for the queen's murder but, back then, she didn't kno to do it
