It took 2 hours for Anne to get there .

She could’ve gone there sooner of course, but she had to approach as peacefully as possible to prevent them from panicking and running away .

She would have definitely felt bored alone for two hours but nope, she was smiling the entire time . She constantly heard lord Rhaegar telling her she was pretty, she knew that “it would be a waste if you died” was Rhaegar’s way of telling her that she cares . The young lord was still just 13 after all and wasn’t that good at expressing his feelings . That’s what it meant, right? He wouldn’t see me as an actual waste, right ?

Such questions occupied her brain the entire time .

“Wow, will you look at that body, I hope the leader will let me have a taste after he’ll be done with her “

Adam laid one look at her and then hit Gregor hard behind the head.

“Look at that armour you fool, do you think she is a common woman . Go call in the leader before it’s too late “

The other bandit came to his senses almost automatically, panicked a little bit then ran inside .

“State your name and your business woman, we do not want any trouble with nobility. Which house do you serve ? “

Anne gave him a deadly smile and answered.

“House of Set “

The poor soul froze, he truly felt like staring at death’s eyes . They were just bandits, it was true that their leader had been making deals with a couple of shady city lords but still. They couldn’t even compete with a house of knights, a house of chevaliers or barons. But a freaking viscount? That meant suicide, he had to let the leader know quickly.

However the leader was unbothered at that moment. Lately he didn’t care about anything because he now had backing ,he had struck a deal with “Sisters of Blood “ .

“So you’re telling me that you’ll pay an actual gold piece for every little girl that we bring you? You prefer them younger than 10 years old? Wait! Don’t tell me you’re planning to train them into becoming the next “Sisters of Blood “

The woman he was asking that had the look of a proper seductress . If you first laid eyes on her you wouldn’t think her to be dangerous at all. How can death be that pretty, there’s no way someone like that could be a murderer? She has to be an angel, right ?

Her uniform was red with black stripes, red like blood and tight. On her waist she had 3 silver daggers and for some reason, a book.

“You catch on pretty quickly, dont you Edgar? The Blood Mother knew we could count on you,thats why you were given such an hmmmm, honourable task . You are being trusted with our future after all, this should tell how much we value you “

She emphasised every word !

Edgar’s attention was at her cherry lips slowly whispering everything but he still didn’t like the way she was looking at him.

As if he was a dog, no... more like a toy .

At that moment however, Gregor broke in full panic mode ,and he was soon met with 3 daggers to his neck . The woman in red acted quickly .

“Who the hell are you? “

“You fool, didn’t I tell you not to disturb me? Mistress please forgive me, he is one of my men “

It only took one second for poor Gregor to be covered in cold sweat, this woman was as deadly as she was beautiful.

“Sorry leader, and honourable lady .. “

“Call me mistress, I’m no honourable lady”

“Hmm, yes.. mistress yes. Sorry . Boss, a woman is at the entrance, we need your assistance “

The woman gave Edgar another “playful look” and started laughing at him, while Edgar slapped Gregor until he almost passed out .

“This is not the time to play with women you fool, the mistress is here “

“But boss, I’m not telling you to play with her.... she is a noble “

The moment the word noble was mentioned ,the lady removed her daggers from Gregor’s neck and placed them on Edgar’s neck.

“What are nobles doing here, have you betrayed us? Betraying the blood mother only means death you fool .

Are you tired or living ? “

Edgar fully understood that unless the explanation was satisfactory, that crazy bitch would definitely kill him without a second thought. She also had that weird power that cancelled spirit, he couldn’t feel his spirit at all . This woman was trouble, but thankfully for him another one of his underlings got inside and saved him from death, at least for now.

“Boss, the Set bastards are here . They mean business, the woman asks for our surrender or her Young Lord will kill us all”

The name Set rang in his ears for about 10 times before he realised it.

“Ssset? You mean Set, the viscounty?”

Without even paying any attention to the dagger on his neck, he pushed her hand away and fell on his knees.

“I’m finished, I AM FUCKING FINISHED .

I should have never messed with these damn bastards, its all your fault. Its all your fault, stupid whore. I’ll show you what ill do now, ill kill you and deliver you to them. Then ill beg for mercy until I’ll be spared. MEN , GET HER “

Her playful look soon turned into a surprised one, then into one full of disgust.

The Blood Mother was always right not to train and recruit men, those bastards were just so not honourable, men were all scum .

“AGRHHHH, die you disgusting piece of shit “

She evaded the attacks coming from Gregor and the other bandit, then shot her daggers through Edgar’s eyeholes.

He was pin to the wall like a damn leaflet.

“Boss, nooo.. How ? Why? “

“It was your damned tongue who got him killed, you just had to interrupt us while we’re busy “

She raised her arm and the bloody daggers were summoned back at her as if her hands were magnetic.

“But don’t worry sweetie, I have thought of a few other ways to put your tongue to good use “

She pulled out a rope from her uniform, and then tied Gregor’s hands and feet .

To a bandit who had raped and murdered women all his life, being raped and then murdered by a woman was a new experience. But to his friends whom Anne smashed to bits that day, Gregor was one lucky bastard .
