Chapter 511 A Dress
“Stop right there!”
As Raven was halfway down the corridor, two young men suddenly rushed out in front of her.
They were both former members of the Sirius Pack who had betrayed her
Without a word, Raven raised her leg and kicked.
The two men were sent flying backwards, coughing up blood, before falling silent. She had no mercy for traitors.
The rest of the rebels behind them involuntarily took several steps back at the sight.
One of them was terrified that Raven might strike again. They mustered the courage to speak. “Raven, Miss Jones has strong ties with Robert. You’ve already been expelled from the Vyrdenia Military. You have no right to oppose Miss Jones anymore.”
Another rebel quickly added, “That’s right! Do you even know who Mr. Brown is? He’s Mr. White’s master! And you dared to pretend to be his disciple? Ridiculous!”
Raven paused. She didn’t know Robert was George’s subordinate.
Oddly, she didn’t seem too surprised by this revelation, as if deep down, a part of her had already suspected it.
She ignored the two traitors‘ taunts and barged straight into the council hall.
Ashley, seated in the main chair, didn’t expect Raven to storm in so boldly.
Her gaze locked onto Raven, growing even colder.
Raven scanned the room but didn’t see any sign of Miles. She turned to Ashley and said coldly, “Release my grandfather. If anything happens to him, I’ll destroy the Nightwatchers Pack.”
Ashley chuckled. “Well, well… such bold words. Let me guess. Who’s giving you this confidence? The Star God Association? The Vyrdenía Military?”
Ashley continued, “What a shame. Vyrdenia is already trying to distance itself from you, and the Star God Association would never risk offending the upper realm people for your sake. You’re completely on your own now.”
As her words fell, Eagleton and others dragged the unconscious Miles into the hall.
His face was deathly pale, eyes shut tight. He looked extremely weak.
Seeing his tortured condition, a murderous aura surged violently from Raven’s entire being.
Instead of being intimidated, Eagleton grew more smug. He pressed a dagger against Miles’s neck and said mockingly,” Miss Valor, take a good look. If I even twitch my wrist, I can slice your grandfather’s throat wide open. If you don’t want him dead, you better not try anything stupid.”
He was certain that with Miles as a hostage, Raven wouldn’t dare act rashly
Watching her once–powerful superior now reduced to a helpless prisoner made Eagleton feel intoxicated with triumph. Raven’s gaze swept over Miles. She quickly assessed that though he was seriously injured, he was in no immediate danger. She then turned her eyes toward Ashley. “Speak. What do you want?”
“You killed my best friend, Lola. I will never let that slide. But…” Ashley sneered, “You’re still someone of value. I’m not ready to kill you. Yet.”
She waved to one of her guards. The guard quickly exited the hall.
Soon after, he returned carrying a wooden clothing case.
In front of Raven, the guard opened it, revealing a nearly transparent white silk dress, more like something worn by dancers in a nightclub than a proper gown.
Ashley said, “Put on this outfit and perform a dance for the members of the Nightwatchers Pack. If they’re entertained enough, I’ll let your grandfather go.”
