It's a small chapter; it's just a confrontation nothing special
Chapter 5
"Sir..." Elmont instinctively stopped not looking for the figure that the voice belonged. "Will you make your job correctly?"
"I do my job..." Answered, never turning his body to look into the face of Roderick.
"The last time... I recall, you failed in your job, am I mistaken, sir?" Roderick surrounded Elmont slowly stopping in front of him. He loved see the pain in the captain's eyes, he could see that he cause the Knight anger and the proof was the way his hand was closed around the hilt. "You should have protected her and she died in the end... I hope you take care of Isabelle better than you did with Elissa." Those simple words sowed pain to his heart and he felt it contract. He breathes deeply.
"I do not remember seeing you there..." the voice was harsh and as he felt the anger rising within him, felt all the repressed emotions that always threaten to take care of his body and mind.
"She was supposed to be well protected with you, is not it? But from the beginning she was never..."
"What do you suppose? What do you mean?" From the first time he saw Roderick, Elmont never liked him. Especially when was announced his engagement with Elissa, starting in that moment he couldn't stop thinking about them, both together and it disgusted him, revolted and he could feel growing anger within himself... He wanted to be the one to marry her. Elmont realized later that what he felt were jealous. Jealous. And he began to take conscience of what he felt for her but then she died and at that time he understood what he felt completely, he understood hoe much she was important to him...
"We are not children, Sir. I realize how much you wanted her, how much you sought for her... But from the beginning she was never predestined to be yours. She was always mine and I would have done whatever I wanted with her..."
"Don't talk like she was an object. Everything you ever wanted was power and now you are using Princess Isabelle. I will not let you do the same as you would have done and did to Elissa..." Roderick smiled when he heard the name of Elissa came from the mouth of Elmont. He had not used any title and it was a little proof of his assumption.
"You don't have enough power to stop me..."
"One day I'll stick a dagger deep into your chest. When you least expect..." Elmont muttered due to his anger. It was unable to master his body, he was responding to the anger that he felt from the person in front of him... Roderick's smile widened.
"Is this a dream or should I take as a threat, Sir?"
"This will be your future"
Roderick laughed amused.
"We'll see... We'll see..."
"We'll see indeed." Elmont turns around and began to walk away from that man.
