Chapter 6
 
A snake demon approached the throne and bowed to the lord that sat there waiting for permission to speak. A servant introduced the snake to the lord, “My lord, this is the snake demon Yuma. He has information on Princess Tatta Hitotsu No Gini Ronomono.”
The lord waved his hand signaling the servant to leave once the servant was gone he looked at the snake lifting his head that was resting on his hand.
“I found the Princess in the Neutral Town ruled by the Red Flower Clan. From what I hear she's supposedly mated to the thief Youko Kurama.”
The lord hid a smile behind his hand and told him with a lovely alto voice, “You'll be rewarded for this information but I would also like for you to keep an eye on her...until I gather my army to take her.”
“Only if I get rewarded for that too,” Yuma smiled at him.
“Of course,” the lord waved his free hand with a smile, “All my informants get rewarded for their good work.” He then turned critical eyes on the demon, “Don't disappoint me or you'll never see the light of day again.”
The demon just nodded his understanding and waited to be dismissed.
“Go, I have other business to attend to.”
Yuma stood and left as the lord left his throne and went to the dungeon. He walked down the stairs and came to a stop in front of one of the cells and smiled, “You and your brothers thought you could hide your sister away from me, did you?”
The prisoner kneeling on the ground while his wrists were shackled to the wall he didn't brother lift his head as he allowed his silver hair to cover his face and spoke in a gentle tone like that of a mother to her child, “You won't be able to have her. She probably went into her first heat and mated. So she's not available to you anymore.”
The lord snorts, “Like I care about that. I'll just challenge the male who claims her and take her for myself. She will be mine as well as any kits she carries.”
“Bastard,” the prince muttered, “but you'll have a tough time because I know she'll choose a powerful mate.”
The lord just snorted and changed the subject, “So are you going to talk now?”
The prince made no move to answer as he hung from the wall.
“Very well, you'll lose your ear this time.”
“That's not as bad as the last one you did.”
The lord chuckled, “We'll see.” There was a suddenly explosion beside the prisoner, “What?!”
Smoke find the cell as guards stormed into the room protecting their lord from attack. When the smoke cleared there was a hole in the wall, the stone scattered on the floor, and, worst for him, his prisoner gone.
“Damn it! Search the ground! Search everywhere! I don't want him escaping!” the lord ordered angrily. “I will not lose my only imprisoned prince to them!”
