The murder of Baron Wragg causes a fashionable funeral that would bring lords and ladies from all the nearby fiefdoms. The baron’s sister Delilah looks ravishing in the sexy outfit.
The veil that covers her face seems to be for mourning her brother’s death but is really worn to cover the satisfied smirk on her face.
Days after the funeral Delilah has a visitor from the Cruxton Abbey. The soldier is here to demand that the slave Rachel is to be turned over so she can be tried and executed for murdering the baron. Rachel is brought to the throne room. She is naked but for the irons binding her wrists behind her back.
Delilah says “I can have her tried here.”
“That would not be acceptable” the soldier replies. “First you convicting the slave would appear as an act of revenge for her killing your brother. Second Archbishop Despard Wragg VII was your late brother’s cousin and he wants to insure the slave wench is properly executed.”
“But she has yet to be tried” Delilah smugly notes.
“Her trial will be fair and swift” the soldier assures her.
“Very well… I will have her transported to the abbey later today if…”
“No, I will take her now” the soldier demands.
“I will have her dressed and turn her over to you” Delilah concedes.
“That will not be necessary. I have brought an iron collar with a chain lead for this wench. That will be adequate dress for her.”
Though the thought of killing Baron Wragg had crossed my mind but I had situated our relationship that I was sure I could escape- maybe even have him set me free- without the need to kill him. Now someone has killed the baron and I have been framed for his murder. I am now being marched bound and naked from the baron’s castle to the Cruxton Abbey. I have no hope of a fair trial and can only wonder what kind of execution I will face.
