I rose to my feet and held my hand out for Taz, which he took. We both grabbed our weapons and walked back down the steps where our men stood. Anthony looked at the two of us with horror. We were covered in blood. Mine from stabbing the life out of the man that commanded my family to be killed and Taz's from holding on to me while I cried.
"It's over." Taz said to Anthony and raised his sword in the air. "Now, you die." He ran over to Anthony with full force but was stopped in his tracks when he was hit in the ankle, making him fall to his knees. "No, my king. You die." He lifted the knife in the air but his arm was caught my Julian.
"Wrong choice." He sliced Anthony's neck in one swipe and let him fall to the ground. Taz crawled over to the wall and sat up against it. "I can make it back to the carriages but I can't go from there."
I nodded and touched the ankle that had been hit. He flinched and let out a screech. "It's definitely broken." I told him and lifted him up off of the wall. His arm draped over my shoulder and we walked out of the palace together.
"Take me to her, Justin. Take me to my queen."
