Tangled by Fate

2As Veronica's body was pushed forward, her body stumbled near the edge of the sandy tower.    

      

"Stop!" Arthur shouted. Distress was visible in his voice.    

      

"Kneel," Queen Isabella ordered. "Kneel and beg for her life. Ask for forgiveness. If I find your words sincere, I might let her go."    

      

"This bitch!" Darius cursed.      

      

He and the rest heard the conversation from the ground.    

      

"She is intentionally messing with him," Zinnia commented. "She knows very well Arthur cannot give her what she wants."    

      

"Doesn't that mean Arthur will beg for no reason? She is planning to throw Veronica, is she not?" Darius asked.    

      

"She is and Arthur knows it very well," Felix stated.    

      

"Then, will he still kneel?" Darius asked.    

      

No one had to answer him as they watched Arthur kneel in front of Queen Isabella.      

      

As he was standing in the air, he knelt in the air. It didn't look like he was kneeling. It felt like he was floating while kneeling.
