A sledgehammer to the face wasn’t how Greed expected to be
welcomed back to his kingdom.
But it had certainly done the job his attackers had wanted.
His thoughts filtered back in as he tried to think past the pounding in his
skull. It was hard to take down one of the demon kings. Apparently a
sledgehammer would do it. He hadn’t expected that.
In any other circumstance, he might have allowed himself to feel
surprised. Proud, even. His people were warriors first and foremost. They
took what they wanted, and they let nothing stop them. Someone had been
brave enough to attack him. It wasn’t the first time, but it was one of the
few where he’d felt pain.
He’d like to meet the person who’d done it. Maybe clap them on the
back and then crack their nose with his forehead. A little blood never hurt
anyone, and he deserved a little retribution.
Grinding his teeth so he didn’t moan, he rolled over onto his side and
set his palm down on the earth. No, not earth. Metal. Bad sign. He should
have been flat on his back in the dirt, waking up moments after the blinding
pain that he remembered. Not somewhere else entirely.
“Ach,” he muttered, groaning as he opened his eyes. Light flickered
beyond where he could see and it burned behind his gaze, a headache
suddenly blooming at the back of his skull.
He frowned, brows drawn down so tightly they almost hurt as he forced
himself upright. His head throbbed. Worse than he’d thought it would. And
he tenderly touched the knot on the back of his head while he looked
around for any clues as to where he was.
What he found made his blood turn ice cold.
He was in a cage. A metal cage crudely made of iron and what looked
like steel. The bars were all uneven distances apart, as though someone
hadn’t had enough time to throw this together.
There was a bump on his skull that was the size of a chicken egg, and
already he felt rage simmering underneath his skin. Greed could not lose it
here. He would not lose control when his people were doing what he’d
taught them to do.
Looking down at his body, he tried to assess the damage but was mostly
surprised to see there wasn’t really much damage to see. He wasn’t wearing
a shirt anymore. All his rings were gone, the necklaces he’d worn, not a
scrap of wealth left behind. His pants were still on him, thank goodness, but
even they looked dirty. Like he’d been dragged through the mud.
How had he gotten here?
