Saetan watch two of his children disappear up the steps. Waited long enough to give a father's command to his more stubborn son then do what he should have did the moment the bitch was brought thru the door…
His hand reached and the bitch hung in the air. His face showed nothing. The room didn't give way to ice or bitter cold. There was nothing to tell how enraged he truly was. In a deep hiss he hissed "The only reason you're not dead right now is because my queen wants you alive."
Karla glared at the High Lord, "High Lord, Your assistance will be needed with the healing providing you move that out of my way so I do what is needed."
He glared the first circle was waiting to be given the order to kill her. The bitch found her voice. "Let me go. I demand to see this queen of yours."
Phantom hands stopped her saying anything further.
Aaron came thru the door a mass of dark blankets following him just above waist high. Barely controlled anger lit his eyes. In a dark voice he asked, "Is it safe to bring Prince Sadi in?" if it wasn't he would help to make it safe. Asking was just a courtesy.
Karla turned. Ice spiking her glacier blue eyes. "Unless the High Lord wants to debate things for a bit longer." Then to Gabrielle, "I'll need your talents, sister."
One kind of anger vanished. Karla admitting that she needed help not only from the High Lord but from another healer…
… What had the bitch done? No that answer would come all too soon…
The High Lord pressed his captive against the wall… too near Beal but no other space was available without telling pissed off men to move.
Karla turned back to her escorts, "Please take Prince Sadi to the Consorts room. I'll be there in a moment. Lady Gabrielle If you please…" nothing more would be needed to be said. At least not until Daemon was safely tucked into his room.
Karla waited till Daemon and his escorts were out of site then allowed her icy anger to flow. The last bitch who had pissed her off this badly was left in pieces. It was same fait that this little … bitch was too kind of a word to use on the likes of her… deserved. Chilling ice came with her words, "High Lord if you wouldn't mind I would like to talk to her."
Saetan glared at Karla. There was something she wanted to know. Something that he needed to hear. Whether or not he as Daemon father needed to hear it or the High of Hell … that was the question that needed to be answered. Knowing this Lady wouldn't have asked him for this unless it was needed; he slowly let the phantom hands open from around the bitch's mouth.
The bitch screamed again, "I demand to see this queen of yours!"
Karla took a few steps bringing herself within a few spaces of the bitch. Then licked her lips. "She wants to see you to. But not until the child is born."
"Why should I be made to wait? That gutter whore deserves…"
"Enough!" the Hall shook with cold fury. Raining in her temper Karla spoke again only in a quieter softer voice, "Enough. You are not a queen and have no rank to demand anything."
"You're holding me against my will!"
Ice glittered in her eyes as did something else. Just for a moment before speaking she locked eyes not with her prey but with the High Lord of Hell. "You harmed a member of a queen's court. You held a member of that court against his will. You held the Warlord Prince of Dhemlan against his will." With every word her voice grew colder and just a hair softer till it was barely heard then all too softly she said, "A debt will be paid." Karla turned to the High lord barely controlled fury held in her glazed ice coated eyes. "Prince SaDiablo, in form the staff that she will be staying in the south tower until the queen is able to deal with her properly. It is the Lady's will."
He didn't like it not one bit but his queen had said that she wanted the bitch alive. "As the Lady wishes."
Karla made her way up three steps and turned around cold glacier blue eyes locked with the High Lord's glazed golden eyes once more. A wicked smile bloomed, "One more thing High Lord… If she does anything to harm that which is Prince Sadi's don't wait to kill her just prolong her death." The she allowed herself to float the rest of the way up the steps. It wouldn't be much longer till the explosion hit and she was not going to be standing around when it did.
The High Lord blinked then gave his prey a blank look. Karla couldn't think… couldn't mean…
He wanted to explode. He wanted to rip her head from her body. Damn it he should take his time killer her so that she wished that she had never been born…
… And damn it he couldn't…
"Beal take our guess to her room. She should be treated as well as our last house guests were."
"Of course High Lord." He didn't like and knew that the woman of the Hall would like it less. But that didn't matter the Lady wanted her kept here… and they lived to please the Lady. It was that leash that made him take the new house guess to the furthest place in the hall.
