306 Darkness In The Capital (2)

***

Ellena closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She could still smell blood on her even though she had washed up several times and scrubbed her body clean. The pouch of fragrance herbs that she hung on her waist could not help remove the smell.

When she asked them to bring more fragrance herbs, those stupid maids dared to look at her in confusion? They made her feel like the smell was only her imagination.

They kept saying they didn't smell blood on her, even though she clearly did.

Hmm... was it possible that it was only in her imagination? Ellena had even asked her maids to put so many fragrance herbs on containers in her chamber, but she still smelled the blood.

Ellena had never killed anyone before. If it was up to her, she wouldn't shed blood to kill her target. She was an educated woman, after all.

Usually, women would use poison to kill their enemy, but in Ellena's case, she had to use a weapon since the witch wanted blood.
