THE ACCOMPLICES

The man trembled as shameful tears left his eyes over what he had done. If he knew this would happen, then he would have never accepted this task.

"Don't waste my time" Lucas said as his patience running thin.

"I...I..." He stuttered unable to make a proper statement.

"Mention them!" Lucas ordered. He gulped hard and choosed to let out their names than die a Terrible death. Even if he was still killed at least he didn't die alone but seeing how Morgan didn't hesitate to throw a knife at him he better confess.

"I'll talk. I choose life please Sire" He cried.

"Go on, tell me" Lucas coaxed.

"Promise me that I won't die. You'll let me live" He begged unwilling to say anything unless his life would be preserved. Lucas glared at the man but then he nodded complying.

"You have my word" He said. The man was now assured of life knowing well that Lucas wouldn't take back his words in front of everyone.

"It was lady Janet" He said and Janet was fast to stand up and glare at him.
