"Today will be the most fun, my love," William told Kristen in kind words. "I'm so lucky to have you by my side," the queen responded and smiled at him. "Let us go and join everyone. I will meet you at the jousting area."
Kristen meets up with William in the field shortly after they leave her chambers. The stablemen were preparing the horses for the jousting match. Kristen loved being around the horses.
The competition began, and it was a success. Everyone was having fun and rejoiced in the winners of the bout. There were a few injuries, but nothing bothered the men.
After the competition, Kristen and William talked to the champion.
"You are very impressive! I do enjoy your victories! I hope to see more." the queen boasted to the man.
After everyone was gone, the queen took her usual walk in the garden. She began to get thirsty and wanted some fresh blood. She had been days without any, and the thirst was very intense.
She retreated to her chambers to try to get herself under control. She had to figure out who she was going to choose. She didn't like biting William on a regular basis, and she hated to ask her closest friends and servants. She always feared she would go too far and kill them. Then Kristen remembered the girl from the previous day that refused her. The way the girl addressed her made her furious. Who refuses a queen's request?
Set on a mission, Kristen headed down into the dungeon to meet with her henchman. "I want you to go and find this girl named Lisa at the previous jousting event that offended me," Kristen fumed at her henchman. "I will find her and bring her back to the dungeon for your majesty," he replied.
The henchman wasted no time in locating Lisa. She was placed in a cell to await the queen's orders, which would decide her fate.
"The queen has demanded that you be held here for punishment for treason against her majesty," the henchman told her. "I did not commit treason! I just refused to let her bite me!" Lisa pleaded.
"That is considered treason in this kingdom, and you also offended the queen with words."
Lisa was placed in the cell, where she yelled and screamed for them to let her go.
"What's going to happen to me?" she thought. She dreaded seeing the queen again and what she might due to her. Deep down, she already knew her fate.
The henchman brought Lisa to the main chamber of the dungeon. "You must remain here until the queen arrives. She will tell you what she has planned for you," he told her.
The queen emerged from the steps of the dungeon. She entered the room and headed over to Lisa and the henchman. "I told you not to refuse me and that you would pay," the queen hissed at her.
"I will never submit to you. You can do whatever you want to me, but I will never agree to your ridiculous request." Kristen then grabbed Lisa's arm, bit her hard, and drained quite a bit of blood. Lisa screamed with pain as Kristen tore through her skin with her teeth.
Lisa was then placed back into the cell, where she was so weak from all the blood that Kristen had forcefully taken. She found herself tired and quickly drifted into a deep sleep.
After a week, Kristen's anger subsided, and she felt sorry for Lisa." Take her to my personal lady, and she will tell her what she has to do to keep her freedom," the queen told the henchman. "I will do as you command, my queen," he replied and bowed.
Lisa was taken to Kristen's lady, where she was told that she was to be a new servant of the queens. She had to work in the castle and do whatever the queen asked her. "You must never run or leave," the lady told her. This was to be her punishment.
Lisa was mad and upset. "I will not live here and serve that witch!" Lisa thought.
So when she thought no one would see her, she tried to run away. She took off and ran as fast as possible to escape. Unfortunately, she would not get very far before the henchman would catch up with her.
"The queen gave you a second chance at life, and you refused her wishes once again. She has given me orders to put you to death," the henchman told Lisa.
"This will be fast and quick. You will feel no pain as long as you do what I say," he explained. "I need you to lean over and lay your head in the grove of the stone."Lisa leaned over, slowly placed her head in the grove, and grabbed the sides of the stone tightly. She braced herself for the blow of the sword. A thousand thoughts ran through her head as her life flashed before her eyes.
He struck fast and strong. Her head came off upon the first strike, rolling a few feet from the stone. Lisa's body fell to the side as he picked it up and placed it on the stone for the queen to view.
This would be an example to the whole kingdom and world that no one would cross the queen and live to tell about it.
