Chapter 393 - Dragon With Green Eyes!!
Alexander continued staring at the drizzling that had began to pour down for a while. A book in his grip, his eyes kept staring into the distant vallies unblinkingly. His mind drifted off to the moment back at the morning. According to the rules, he had won the play against Cedric. Cedric promised to give him a chance in being alone with Elizabeth for an entire night.
Though he was hesitating, fearing that Elizabeth would put a wrong impression on his intention. But whenever he was reminded of her cold attitude, his heart was in great discomfort. Never in his wildest imagination, he thought that it would be so hard to ignore someone whom he had his feeling.
An exhaled passed through his lips. Clutching the book tightly, he inteneded to catch some sleep but his eyes spotted two guards who were running inside with a dead wolf carefully. From his open window side, the entire palace could be seen clearly. But the strangest part was that he smelled again a strong scent of witchcraft that had been placed nearby.
This time, he had no doubts on that. But how was it possible for someone to use Witchcraft in Dixon Palace when Cedric had prohibited all the magics except his?

Isabella continued staring at the man who was now smiling at her smugly. Fisting the cloth inside her palms, she uttered breathlessly,
" Uncle Ford!! "
The man chuckled tapping on his chin dramatically,
" Too good! At least, our dearest daughter-in-law recognized me."
Ford Williams Raith, second uncle of Former King Vincent Williams Raith and the next successor on line after Shanz Williams Raith from Davina. Several years ago, he was banished from Davina for raping and murdering of a married woman. Untill today, Isabella never heard about him and only met once during the coronation ceremony of Vincent. Meeting the red eyed dragon aka Ford had definitely brought more fears in her mind because Ford wasn't a man but beast. His nature was so cruel that he killed one of his wife with his own hands during an argument.
Isabella sucked a deep breath and asked looking disdainfully at him,
" What do you want? How did you come here? Your punishment hasn't ended yet. Who allowed you to step on our kingdom?"
Ford's expression darkened after hearing her cold words. A mere woman like her dared to show off her attitude in front of him. Ford smiled dangerously and tched opening the gate wide open for them to step down,
" I guess, you better get off and see on yourself, my dearest daughter-in-law."
Shelly and Isabella shared a meaningful glance. Wandering where did their guards go, Isabella agreed and got down with the help of Shelly carefully.
As soon as they came down together, a look of horror flashed across their faces. Isabella cried out painfully upon noticing all the guards of her died around. Not only that, the headless body of her loyal Rider was laying under the feet of horses.
Isabella was still in the terror of processing what just happened but Shelly lost her temper. She stepped forward bossily and began to yell at Ford's face whose face was full of smiles,
" You Bastard! How dare you kill our people? Do you know Cedric? He will kill you..kill you..Aahh.."
Shelly's crying voice rang throughout the entire place, shuddering Isabella who was busy in finding anyone live from her guards out there. Turning around in a swift, she spotted Shelly's lying figure on the ground and called out cryingly,
" Aunty!! "
Ford had slapped Shelly so hard that her cheeks started bleeding. She fell over the ground and hit her head hard against the stone. She bleeded so much in a while that her consciousness had began to become blurry.
Isabella screamed out stepping forward to face Ford,
" Uncle Ford! How dare you lay your hand on my Aunt? Why are you doing this to us?"
Ford sneered reaching out to grab her hairs painfully,
" Not only her, sometimes later, you will face the same consequences like your aunt. What did Shanz tell you earlier? Pass him the throne and stay awake from Davina. But you chose to act like a real bitch and kept insisting on claiming your position. Now, we will see how you and your weapon inside your womb live in this world."
Isabella's body shook in horror at the thought of loosing her child. She cried out angrily,
" Don't you forget that I am still the queen of Davina! If you harm me or my child, I will destroy not only you but the entire Williams family. You hear me?"
Ford let out a sinister laughter. His men had surrounded all over the place and were smiling at Isabella's poor state happily. Not a single soul showed mercy on her unborn child rather they all felt that Isabella deserved this treatment all because she didn't protest on their king's execution.
Pushing her head ahead to look into her eyes, Ford uttered through his gritted teeth viciously,
" But for that, you have to stay alive, Queen Isabella. Unfortunately god has sent me to take you back to hell."
Isabella's eyes widened in shock. She suttured struggling weakly to break free from his grip,
" What.. what are you saying, Uncle? This is your heir that I am carrying inside. How could you.."
Isabella continued muttering and saw him pushing her away at first gently. Confused about his intention, Isabella continued blinking at him worryingly.
Ford gave one last sinister moment. The following moment, he lifted his right leg in the air and aimed it straight at Isabella's protruding stomach.
Before she could dodge away, the kick hit her stomach. All the breaths from her body came out as a mournful cry.
She stumbled few steps back and dropped on the ground. Ford didn't even stop for a while. Taking a large step on her way, he threw a kick one more time on her stomach, causing her to roll over the ground.
Isabella let out several series of cries but no one listened or came forward to help her out. Just when Ford lifted his feet again to kick on her stomach, one of his man called out fearfully,
" Bo..Boss... There.. there's a dragon.. coming down..on our way.."
Ford growled out enragingly,
" What rubbish! He might be one of our people."
His man repeated fearfully,
" Boss..the dragon has green eyes.."
Ford furrowed whipping his head back angrily,
" What do you mean?"
His man swallowed hard, already began to stumble backwards,
" The..the mad Duke.. from Richalwolf Land.. Could it be him? O my god! Boss..Run..."
