Chapter 205 Fierce Sister



Sitting on a chair with her upper body tilted forwards, supported by her elbows which rested on her knees, and keeping her head bowed.

After his warning to Dilise, this was the position Dilise had assumed, not speaking a word, and lightly shifting her feet.

"Is she scared?" Seth thought in bewilderment, turning to stare at Irene who only shrugged her shoulders.

The trio remained in silence for a few minutes before Seth's patience ran out.

"Dilise, why aren't you talking," Seth asked.

"I'm worried about what will happen if you tell on me," Dilise said, raising her head and staring at Seth through her hair which had fallen over her face.

"Will you tell on me or not?" Dilise asked with a suddenly stern tone.

"What happens if I do," Seth asked deciding to entertain the woman's thoughts.

"I'll kill you," she said, her reply earning her the blank and blinking face of Seth.

"I won't say a thing, and neither will Irene" Seth said deciding to put the woman's funny worries at rest.

"How can you be so sure about her, she isn't exactly an example of obedience?"

"True," Seth said turning to face Irene, looking her from top to bottom.

"She needs me to get her out of here, if she proves stubborn, I don't mind torturing her, getting the information I need, and then disposing of her".

"You'll be an obedient girl and not tell on Dilise, isn't that right Irene?", and her expression making no change, Irene nodded her head to Seth's question.

"See, now tell me what's going on, why aren't Edwin and Ella here torturing or promising me tortures".

…

Feeling reassured by Seth's words, Dilise pushed her hair to the back, sat up straight, and stared at Seth and Irene with a confidence that had not been present a few seconds ago.

"My fiancée died some time ago, his death mostly being my fault, and this left me with somewhat of an unstable character due to my guilt and other feelings."

"Seth you're the first man I've had sex with since his death, so my emotions are currently chaotic".

"My condolences" a voice surprisingly said, both Seth and Irene look towards the owner in surprise.

"I didn't expect you to be sentimental, but thank you," Dilise said with a smile.

It was already bad enough that Dilise just said she had somewhat of a temporal split personality, the last thing Seth needed was another mentally challenged woman around him.

Seth could only hope Irene's sudden thoughtfulness was the end of the surprises the usually uncaring and stoic woman would be giving him as they spent their time together.

"Now back to the issue at hand, I think the first thing that you both should understand is that until Edwin decides otherwise, the both of you are now under my custody".

"Whether or not you have a good meal or even a meal, have a good sleep, are locked in your cells for the whole day, or get to bask under the sun and the moon, all these things depend on my orders.

"What about whether or not we both fuck" Seth said looking at Dilise

"Well that will depend on whether or not you're a good inmate," Dilise said with a smile and a lick of her lips.

While Seth still felt weirded out by her fluctuating character, he couldn't help but internally compliment how sexy a confident Dilise was.

"Why would they hand us over to you" Irene decided to ask when she saw both Seth and Dilise get lost in the dreams of their future copulation.

"Oh yes," Dilise said getting herself back

"To put it simply, Seth as much as Edwin wants to torture and kill you in an endless loop, he has to choose otherwise, and not trusting himself to not kill you if you both met, he has decided to stay away from you.

"As for the princess, she will also be staying away from you until certain conditions are fulfilled".

"I can figure out why Ella is scared and hiding, but why is Edwin being merciful with me, I know the man, and I'm very sure saving the life of his people is far from enough to keep me this safe and comfortable.

"You're right about that, Edwin actually had a series of torture chambers be prepared for you, but unfortunately for him and fortunately for you, there was an unaccounted variable, my sister".

"Your sister?" Seth couldn't help but ask, staring at Dilise and trying to see if he could come up with any familiar face that matched or resembled hers but came up with nothing.

"I don't know your sister, why is she helping me, and why do her words carry enough weight to make Edwin let me be".

"Is she a Duke or the queen or some high noble lady?" Seth asked squinting his eyes as he tried to find any clue on Dilise that could tell him about her sister.

"Well she is nobility, but not one so high, she is Edwin's sister-in-law, the wife of his late brother, and also one of the people you rescued from the outer city.

"When she came in, she happened to witness me bring you into the city, and from then on she's been hounding me on your situation.

"I didn't tell her much, but somehow she found out about Edwin's not-so-nice plans for you, and went ballistic. They had a huge argument, and when Edwin still refused to release you, she stormed off.

"We all thought that was the end of things, but hours later, she began a campaign for your release.

"With him having forgotten her in the outer city and well being mother of his nephew, Edwin was lenient with her and ignored her little campaign, It was until when the whole city went on to protest this morning, my sister at the lead that Edwin realized his mistake, but unfortunately it was too late".

"In the end, Edwin had no other choice but to hand over custody of you to me due to our familiarity," Dilise said finishing her explanation.

"She must be quite the fierce woman" Seth commented in a daze totally not expecting such a story.

"A big idiot or ridiculous gambler" Irene added, but her words didn't offend Dilise.

"True, we are still in a war and her actions could have ruined the city, but luckily her gamble paid off, as Edwin chose the city's peace over prosecuting you. What did you do to make her so committed to you?"

"Other than apparently save her life, Nothing, I don't even know her" Seth pointed out.
