Chapter 15 - The show

"My lady, a few knights are looking for you!" she could feel the wariness and suspicions in the voice of the man.

Olivia narrowed her eyes, and then a nefarious smirk formed on her lips. She was smiling but at the same time she was not.

The door knocked again this time with an urgent tone. the person who was standing out using too much force.

The knights had so much difficulty in looking for them. They have to look around at each and every house thrice before finding out they were here.

If they run away from here, somehow, their master would kill them. Only the thought was enough to make them shudder and they banged the door with much force.

The owner had already left the space for them and they stared at the door, wondering if they should break it to capture the couple.

"Coming!" in a sweet voice as if flowers were falling came from the room stunning the knights who had a different imagination in their mind.

Footsteps could be heard and soon the door was opened by a beautiful girl with dark raven hair but green eyes.

She was an enchanting beauty. Only one look was enough to freeze all the knights at their places as they kept staring at her without saying a word.

Ophelia blinked her eyes and smiled with a seductive look on her face that only created further heat on the face of knights who turned red.

"I apologize for my tardiness, me and my husband were having a meal." in a sweet voice, she responded as she played with her hair and then looked at them apologetically.,

Ophelia was beautiful and her face looked too innocent and created a sense of protection among others.

"No! My lady. Why are you apologizing? We came unannounced. We should be the one apologizing.`` A sense of relief filled her, though her facial expressions did not change from a worried young girl, she shook her head faking surprise.

"Not at all, you all are doing your duty. How may I help you, kind Sir?" coming back to their senses the knights realized that they were here to take the couple with him.

But they expected them to be criminals. While the girl was.. They wondered why their master was searching for them badly.

"My lady, our master, had asked us to bring both of you.

If you will cooperate the matter would be solved peacefully. I am sure there must be some kind of misunderstanding that would be easily solved.

Our master is a kind man, he would not hurt you." sneering in her heart, her eyes faked fear!

Kind my foot! That bloody monster who had killed her family. They were calling him kind! Ha!

Looking at the girl who was looking no more than a scared rabbit they hesitated to force her to come with them but they did not dare to go against the order of their master or who knew what hellish training they would have to receive.

"Yes, so do not worry and come with us." Just as the knight moved forward to hold her hand, a man with the same dark hair and fair face with green eyes came from the other corner.

He was wiping his lips as if he had just finished the meal.

"What is the commotion here! Have we paid such a high amount for so much disturbance?" with an annoyed look on her face, Olivia stared at the owner who had shown them the room a few days ago.

The man felt embarrassed. He had thought that he would be the one to shout at them since they were criminals, but by their behavior it felt there was some misunderstanding.

Even the knights were taken aback by her cold eyes who stared at them. For a minute they felt the same shiver which their master gave them.

"You both have to come with us. Our master is waiting for you." Both of them exchanged a glance and then Olivia stared at the knights with a colder look.

"For what? We have done nothing immoral or illegal. You should at least tell us the reason why you are taking us. Or else we would not come with you." in a tone full of self righteousness, she stood in front of Ophelia as if trying to protect her.

"I have faced the same situation so many times. The whole world is trying to covet my wife. I do not want to deal with another pervert. So leave us alone." with the anger and hurt in her voice she stared back at all of them with killing intent when all of them were dumbfounded.

Did the boy (Olivia) just called their master pervert. Though the girl was a top beauty with jade skin and glowing look, their master would not covet a married woman.

Even they felt embarrassed for staring at a married woman like that!

"That is not the case but no matter what the reason is you have to come with us." This time, they did not give the couple a chance to speak further as they held the boy's (Olivia) hand and started dragging him making sure that the girl would follow too.

The couple exchanged glances and hurled a few more comments for the spectator to listen but did not struggle or create issues for the knights.

"I could not believe that one could be kidnapped in broad daylight. If the knights would do that, who would the citizens trust!

I am telling you if your pervert master touched my wife, I would not sit still!" she continued till they reached the carriage.

Many whispers and gasps could be heard when the crowd heard them.

Just as they reached the carriage, the door was opened with a loud bang from inside and a man with a dark and gloomy face was sitting in the middle of the seat looking at them with blooded eyes.

"Whom do you call a pervert?"
