Chapter 4

Surrendering

Serena felt extremely happy of the ways things were going. One more to go and hopefully that will be that. She had sent message to her father who was still away to the kings court. Hopefully he will reach it and come back to her, before she will possible end up a married women.

Everything was set for when Sir Darien and some his men would arrive. She just hope she didn't eat too much for the meal she had made for them.

She went to the dinning hall and sat on her chair. All she had to do was wait and she didn't feel excited, just nervous and very cautious

Darien and his men came through the gates and moved towards the hall and following Sir Andrew. He instructed his men to have at least one weapon and to be covered be clothes of there . . manhood's. Darien was going to let this women do what ever it is that she had plan for them. He knew by the other two that they be stripped naked and be ready for their humiliation.

Darien didn't want to feel humiliation by this, wench. But there was no other possible way towards it.

As they entered the hall they saw her waiting and smiled at their entrance. It made Darien abit uneasy and felt a tint of anger. But he let it slid for now.

''Welcome gentlemen. Please be seated and let us feast'', she said softly

Darien eyed her

''Do you think we will possible eat anything, for all we know you tainted the food and drinks'', he said casually

''Suit yourself'', she said

She tucked in the cakes and bread and sipped her drink. All the men watched her eat and drink and they too tucked in to see that it was safe when she had ate 6 or 7 pieces of food and drink

Darien sat opposite her and watched her closely. He didn't touch a thing yet but saw his men had tucked in.

''will you not break bread with me, Sir Darien. Its very rude you know'', she asked as she looked at his handsome features

Serena ate the untainted food first then the tainted food lightly. Very lightly and slowly but no one noticed

''why continue to resist this matter, you will pick in the end to marry. If you don't then i fear blood might be spilled and i do not want that or the other two'', he said placing cakes on his and her plate. Serena cursed for they were the badly tainted food

''i do not wish to marry, sir'', she ate the ones he gave very lightly. He ate as well .

''please tell me your not going to say, i wish to be in the nunnery. For i do not buy it'', he asked amusingly

Serena drank lightly

''you know i could end this now. All you have to do is surrender to me. I am very forgiving, not like the other two, my lady'', he purred at her and warned at the same time

''if you mean to convince me into marry you or the others. A little of flattery and wooing would be amiss'', she snapped

he laughed that brought shivers to her spine. She hate to admit but she liked him to laugh.

''so abit of wooing is what you want is it? why, for at the end you will have to marry one of us'', he smiled

Serena temper was starting to come alive again and she tempted it down strongly

''look, Sir Darien Mac Shields. Why is it that the 3 of you so intent on this matter? i have no interest stirring up trouble with you. I am very content into just keeping the way things were many years ago'', she sighed and cursed after she drank-ed deeply

''you are a unwed lass with land. You should no keep it to yourself for you will fall. You need a strong hand, and i have a very strong hand'', he winked at her

then he turned to see half of his men dazed and faces in their food, sleep. He looked at his plate and then back at her. He had a confused look and anger in his face

''the food is poison'', he shouted

''I have been eating, i will not risk killing myself just for you. No its the same stuff i gave Sir Seiya and now you'', she smirked dazed

''you know i can just take you know and wed you by force, little one'', he said angrily

''you could try, but you wouldn't make it, for you soon fall flat on your face'', she smiled amusingly

''i bet you take our weapons and clothes soon enough once we all asleep'', he asked

he was falling asleep but his will was stronger keeping him awake

''you acting if i have killed you. I am lovely enough to give you a wee nap. You deserve it any way for all that strength, to get me into a marriage bed'', she grumbled

''i can appreciate your cunning ways my lady, but remember this, i am more forgiving then Diamond and Seiya'', he said tiredly

He lightly placed his head on the table and let the darkness take him into their hands. He feel asleep into a dream.

''Thank god, i though he never fall asleep'', she muted and yawned

Her guards then took the men who was there and placed them all in a wagon and stripped them off their clothes and weapons. Peter drove the cart and carried them 2 miles away from the land

Andrew came in after peter came back he smiled at his sister who was ticked up in bed. And dozing off.

''they knew we would trick them for when we stripped them, their umm... man area were covered. Quiet amusing actually'', he chuckled

Serena smiled and yawned. She closed her eyes and let the dreamland take her

The next morning his men and Darien all woke up and groaned. Darien placed his hand on his head and rubbed.

''I am going to punish the man who raised that women'', Fredrick muttered

''I give her credit i tell you that. Where the hell are we?'', he said looking around

''I say about a mile or 2 away from the land'', Fredrick muttered

''We best get back to the others and see whats next. They all nodded and got out of the dirt and started walking barefoot back to their camp

Serena had woken up and had a massive headache. She groaned while sipping on water. Food made her feel very nauseous

Diamond and Seiya were all bitter and angry. Darien stood afar and waited and listening

''right we are going to drag that damn lass out by her hair and we flip coins to see who gets her for a wife'', Diamond spat

''You sure we can do that. She took us down badly and yet gracefully'', Seiya asked

''I don't care she will be wed to one of us. I will not have a unwed lass keep this land on her own. Its unheard of'', Diamond was on his horse. Seiya was just nodded in agreement. All he wanted to do was go back to his clan and sleep, eat and shag away with wee little maids

Darien was amused and just listen

''We take her down now in about an hour. Are you with me?'', Diamond asked

Seiya just nodded in agreement. Diamond turned to Daren.He just nodded and was going to make sure that no harm came to the little lady

Peter who had what was going on rushed back to his Lady to tell her what he had heard. When he told her she just looked in distress

''Thank you peter'', she said

He nodded and went away to do his chores. Andrew and Rose, who came to be friends with the lady to by Serena side and waited for what she was to say. Andrew broke her from her thoughts

''So what now? any plans for those men?'', he asked normally

Serena had gone through planning of trying to make them leave, but they would not until she chose to marry one of them

She turned to rose who had a sympathy face for her lady

''Rose who do you think will be a good husband. I fear that time has come, i will have to marry for now they seek a real war where blood is now involved'', she sighed sadly

''Well my Lady, Sir Diamond is not a good choice at all. He is horrid man for all i have heard. He thinks women are just useful for the bedroom and breeding. Seiya is a good man but he is too spoiled and sleeps with anything that is female and has two legs, virgin and breasts. No he is not a suitable husband for you'', rose said

Serena sighed sadly. She felt like having a bad tantrum but held it down

''Sir Darien MacSheilds. What of him?'', she said

''He from what i have heard, is a good man. Does what he can for his people. He is fair and listens to what they say. I think he be best then the other two idiots'', she said

Serena nodded and took a deep breathe

''then it is done. Sir Darien MacSheilds it is'',

''Serena, we can fight this. I will not let you enter into a marriage that has no love. Our parents wanted us to marry for love. Nothing more or less'', Andrew pleaded

''But we have no other way. War is now declared. Besides maybe love comes after. I do not know but i will make sure that this is a marriage worth it. When father comes, i know he will try and get me out of it. The king and him are good friends. When father pleads with him, i can end the marriage and that is that'', Serena said calmly

Andrew sighed and hugged his sister

''I sure hope you know what you are doing. But i will make sure that father speaks with him. If not i will go'', he said

''Thank you and you better. Make sure that this marriage ends. Father will most possible take a month to come back. So i know he will take care of me. I be his wife. He knows what a husband is to do for a wife. Now lets get out there before they drag me out kicking and screaming'', Serena said and walked towards the door and to her destiny

First she grabbed a white clothe and went to the gates with Andrew following, being at her side. She promised herself she wouldn't cry and she knew that she possible will when she faces the 3 men

''I think we should give her at least on more chance before surrendering'', Darien explained to the 2

But none of them were listening. Diamond was on his horse and looked at Darien face

''She had loads of chances. Its too late. Men get ready now we will attack'', Diamond shouted

Then the gates of the city opened and they saw the Lady Serena come out with her Brother

''Now is the time to grab her'', Seiya said he got onto his horse and was about to race towards her and snatch her. Darien then saw she was waving a white fabric and froze

She surrender

''No she is surrendering. You know the law. Get off now. She is coming'', Darien said bitterly

They both turned and saw that she was surrendering they smiled and got off their horses

As she came near she looked at them with a raised brow

''When waving a white material or such is a sign for surrender gentlemen'', Serena smirked as she saw what happened with the two with the horses

''yes we know. now lets talk'', he crossed his arms over his muscular chest

''Well before we start. I will make this clear. If we can not come to an arrangement, you will let me go back'', she asked

''yes and then you will be prepared for battle'', Diamond glared

''I havnt your word? you will not hold me back from my land?'', she asked and glared at Diamond.

''yes, you have out word'', Seiya said

Serena nodded her head. She looked at Sir Darien

''i would ask that you wait till my father arrives to discuss the matter of marriage of me'', she said

''Why?, you are old enough to choose without your father. Your a grown women, My lady'', he said simply

Serena sighed deeply and tried again without no anger.

''it is right and proper, Sir'', she said emotionless

''Again why? will you just choose'', Diamond said with contempt

''Because i warn you that my Father and the king are very much acquainted with one another and when my father is angered its not good or wise'', she said

''your father cannot disagree or ask the king for anything. Of your father's displeasure will be dealt later on'', Darien sighed heavily

This women was getting to be a pain the Arse now

''fine, so be it. At the beginning of this ridiculous matter i said that no blood was to be spilled''

''you have changed your mind and agreed to a marriage to one of us?'', Seiya asked and was starting o think victory

''Yes i have. Sir Darien MacSheilds will be the Laird of this land and as my husband'', Serena said heartlessly

The two men looked at Darien who was grinning ear to ear. He nodded and walked towards her.Serena held her breathe. As he came nearer, Andrew tensed. Darien grabbed hold of her hand
