Sinister Knight: Dawn Of A Sinful Calamity -
Chapter 13: Lena
From the time when she could think for herself, Lena could never remember a time when she had not gotten her way.
Though Lena's parents hadn't been nobles, they had been rich and very influential in the local region where they stayed and had been quite hungry for power, hungry to climb up the chains of power and become nobles.
Focusing their strengths on making more money, increasing their influence and building profitable relationships, despite Lena being their only child, her parents had always been too busy to spend any time with her, but then to make up for this, they provided her with everything she wanted and when they didn't, she screamed.
Though a beautiful delicate flower that seemed like it would never harm a fly on the outside, the servants who had taken care of Lena knew the selfish monster she was and could only watch with pitiful gazes as years later her parents married her off to an unfortunate Baron.
The marriage between Lena and the Baron was an arranged one, something which her parents had done to finally place a firm grip on the upper rails of society but while seeing their daughter getting married had filled them with happiness and feelings of accomplishment, the girl herself was left feeling devasted and for the first time in her life, no matter how much she cried, begged and screamed her desires had been completely ignored, her father hitting her for the first time.
Marrying Baron Olak had been the worst day of Lena's life and for several days it had left the woman depressed, till one day, she realized that she was a beauty and that with how much her husband desired her body she could make any demands of him and he would fulfil them.
The day Lena had this thought had been the turning point of her life in the Baron's mansion, as when she screamed and cried out her desires, Lena found herself able to wear down her husband's mind and eventually get him to do as she wished.
Once again living a life where she could get anything she wanted, Lena believed she had accomplished her life's dream and she had been enjoying one of the various benefits of being a Baron's wife, attending a banquet thrown by some lowly well-to-do family when tragedy had struck and an attack had been launched on her.
With a second-order knight, this knight being the pride of her husband's household as her guard, Lena had believed that the attackers would be vanquished but then she could only watch as all those around her collapsed having been poisoned to death, Felix and some boy whom she knew as his squire being the only people to survive.
From what Felix had told her, Blake Luxander was the name of the boy and after the brave and excellent display he had made, Lena had just begun thinking about adding him to her new personal security detail when the bastard had actually had the gal to grab her throat and put her in a choke when she tried to wake him.
Whenever she remembered that scene, anger bubbled within Lena, anger which to even her surprise did not come just from the fact that she had been disrespected or partially strangled by him, but from the look of pure annoyance and irritation she had seen in his eyes when he looked at her, like she were something he would rather throw in the bin.
Having always been treasured, having been wanted, Lena could not replace herself able to accept being treated in such a manner, but then before she could build some scheme to have her revenge, Felix had gone and died, anointing Blake a knight to her surprise and then from there the next events had been an entire bundle she could never have dreamed of.
Waking up the next morning and remembering that she had been fucked outside in the open by a commoner, worst off beside a dead body, a confused Lena had taken some spare clothes from the carriage and then fled from Blake.
Lena's plan had been to replace some way to return to her husband and then create a lie which would make sure the events of the previous night would never come to light, but unfortunately for her, she had run into a camp of kidnappers and now could only run back to Blake, seeking his protection.
Standing close to the carriage and seeing no sign of Blake, Lena was gripped with fear as her pursuers finally caught up to her and surrounded her, 5 men with a large grin and predatory eyes looking at her like she was a delicacy.
"Who were you calling for" one of the men with a black scarf tied around his head asked but Lena stayed silent.
"Hey, there is a dead body here, seems like the guy was poisoned, I guess the sexy bitch isn't so innocent after all" a man who was looking Felix's body all over said with a chuckle.
"I didn't kill him" Lena shouted when she saw that she was being mistaken for the person who killed Felix.
"Well then, who did, because you sure seemed to know your way back here and you were screaming out a name," the man with the scarf on the head said walking up close to Lena while the rest of his colleagues, began dispersing and cautiously checking the area, the carriage drawing the attention of one of them.
"This thing looks expensive, I think she's some wealthy man's wife"
"Hey check out this sword, this is some real quality thing....." the man who had been inspecting Felix's dead body said, picking up the sword Felix had handed Blake, but then before he finish his word, a body came shooting out of the carriage and flying past them.
For a second, everyone froze and then like some unheard command had been given, they all gathered close to one another, their various weapons out as they cautiously stared at the carriage.
At the back of the group, the man with the scarf on the head roughly grabbed Lena and holding her hands behind her, he barked out.
"Who is in there?"
