Now you may be wondering with these power full guardians how can my mother die and I can be poisoned well answer is simple when my mother came to duke's house she also bought six powerful knights with her but after leaving the marquis mansions the knights lost their chance to further advance their Career as they were awarded knighthood by the marquis and leaving his estate means less chance to make achievements and were easily bought off by the first wife who promised them status of baron from the duke if her plan succeeded and on the night when it was their duty to guard the castle they deliberately led the assassins in the castle before anybody could figure out what has happened the assassination was successful.

Well how do I know that because Beatrice the quiet one becomes talkative when we are alone and she starts to mumble something here and there thinking I don't understand anything she says and one fine afternoon she told me the story about my mother's assassination.When we found ourselves alone, away from prying eyes and pricked ears, she would transform.

The quiet and reserved maid would shed her cloak of reticence and become surprisingly talkative, albeit in hushed whispers and mumbled fragments. At first, I paid little mind to her murmurs, assuming they were simply the ramblings of an overburdened mind seeking release. But one fine afternoon, as the sun cast its golden rays upon us, Beatrice took me by surprise. She looked around cautiously, ensuring our solitude, before she began to speak.

Her voice trembled ever so slightly, betraying the weight of the tale she carried within her. I listened intently, my heart pounding in anticipation, as she shared with me the story of my mother's tragic assassination.

"It was a dark night, much like the one yesterday," Beatrice began, her voice barely above a whisper. "Your mother, a beacon of strength and grace, was marked for silence by a shadowy figure,But in the end, despite her courage, despite her determination, your mother was taken from us".My breath caught in my throat as I imagined the scene, the struggle between light and darkness, between life and death.

I longed to ask Beatrice who was behind this heinous act, to demand answers, but she continued, her voice filled with sorrow. Beatrice hesitated, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. "I have my suspicions," she said, her voice laden with a mix of determination and sorrow. "But suspicions alone are not enough. I promise you, dear one, that I will uncover the truth. Your mother's memory deserves justice, and I will not rest until those responsible face the consequences of their actions."

THE NIGHT OF ASSASSINATION

Beatrice upon hearing about assassination captured the knights as they were responsible for the protection of my mother and tortured them which resulted in them speaking about the incident. After hearing about the culprit from the knights Beatrice informed the rest of the maids. Matilda's PoV I stood there, seething with anger, as Beatrice revealed that the mastermind behind the assassination plot was the first wife. The news ignited a fire within me, fueling my determination to seek justice for the wrongs done to our family. Without a moment's hesitation, I stormed off to confront the duke.

Entering his chambers, I demanded that the duke take action against the perpetrators. However, to my dismay, he dismissed my plea, claiming that the testimony of the knights couldn't be trusted. He argued that they were aligned with Marquis Scarlett's vessel, suggesting that this could be an attempt by the old marquis to tarnish his house's reputation.

My blood boiled at the duke's words. How could he disregard such crucial information, casting doubt upon our claims? The injustice of it all threatened to consume me, pushing me closer to the edge of engaging in a battle I knew I couldn't win.

But before I could act on my fury, Agnes, with her calm demeanor and unwavering loyalty, stepped forward. She placed a gentle hand on my shoulder, a silent plea to stay my anger. In that moment, her presence grounded me, reminding me of our shared goal—to seek justice.

Agnes PoV

Taking a deep breath, I swallowed my pride and approached the duke once more. I offered my sincere apologies for Matilda's outburst, acknowledging that her passion sometimes overshadowed her decorum. I assured the duke that we remained steadfast in our pursuit of truth and justice, and that we would abide by his judgment.With newfound composure, I left the duke's chamber.

As I stepped out into the castle grounds, I sought out Matilda, knowing she shared my determination for justice. Walking briskly toward her, I couldn't help but voice my concerns.

Me: "Matilda, something like this can never happen without the duke's knowledge. Do you understand what it means?"

Matilda's gaze locked with mine, her eyes reflecting a mix of determination and concern.Matilda: "Yes, it means the duke wanted Madam to die so he didn't interfere with the first wife."

My heart sank at her words, realizing the implications of such a sinister motive. I knew we had to act swiftly and protect what remained of our hope.

Me: "No, it means the young master will be the new target. We must protect him at all costs because he is our last remaining hope and the remnants of Madam's legacy."Matilda's grip tightened on the hilt of her concealed weapon, her determination mirroring my own.

Matilda: "You're right. Our duty now is to safeguard the young master with everything we have. We won't let them succeed in extinguishing his light."

Nodding in agreement, we exchanged a determined glance, understanding the gravity of the task before us. Together, we would become the unwavering shield, fighting against those who sought to extinguish our family's legacy and protect the young master at all costs.
