Beloved Wife Of The God Of War
Chapter 35

"Marshall, please don't kill her. Though I'm not sure she's your mom but nonetheless, be merciful to her, please," Katherine pleaded on behalf of Gina.

Derrick had a lot on his mind as regarding what Gina just said. He didn't want to think about it but couldn't help but think about it. Derick turned from her without saying a word and walked away from her.

A couple of hours later, Katherine walked inside the cell that Gina was kept. She had used her power and influence as the surgeon general to navigate her way in. As soon as the door of Gina's cell opened, Gina spoke, "Katherine, why did you come?"

"Miss Gina, I am already pleading on your behalf," she said as she sat on the floor with Katherine.

"He won't be able to kill me I, don't worry," she said.

"Are you really his mother? And is all that you said before him true?"

"Very true." Gina answered.

"What do you advise then? Seems it's only when he gets married to Donna that the war can stop," Katherine said.

"Indeed. But I don't want Donna for Derrick. I don't just like her... I want you for him," Gina said.

"Then there would be war," Katherine said.

"This is why I had to reveal myself. If Derrick comes to the reality that the god of war of Aurora Island is his brother, he might meet up with him and they can both replace another solution to the problem between them."

"Why don't you talk to the god of war from Aurora Island to stop the war? Why is he hell-bent on wanting Derrick to marry Donna? Does he have something to gain from it? I think these war is a product of how Derrick killed Wendi's brother."

"That's right. Wendi is the one who instigated the war and she said she can only change her mind if the god of war marries Donna." Gina said.

"But coming here to spy isn't the right thing to do, miss Gina. You could have been killed," Katherine said.

"Indeed, I could have been killed but if I didn't reveal myself, the war would happen. I had to reveal myself in order to avoid the war. I have spoken to the god of war of Aurora Island as well but he's just as stubborn as Derrick," she said.

"If the war eventually happened, you would have to choose a side. Whose side would you choose?" She asked.

The woman sighed but didn't respond. Katherine stood and then walked away. It seems the woman will choose the side of Aurora Island rather than Derrick's side.

Katherine returned to her training ground, apparently, she had been called from the training ground, since they were preparing for war, the hours they all spend on training had increased. Even if the war did not eventually happen, what they have benefitted from the rigorous training is still a plus to them all.

The grandwar king leading the 110 generals stood gallantly before them all and said, "you all did well on your first round of training but before I allow you all to go to rest, there is a final task for today."

He continued, "remember that after seven days of rigorous training, the god of war will examine your skill himself. You won't be a part of the war if your skill is not up to standard by the god of war's judgement. If your skill is however extraordinary, the god of war could even promote you. Understood?"

"Yes, sir." A loud sound of the one hundred and ten generals erupted like thunder. Katherine was also amongst these generals. They were all dressed in their uniform and standing gallantly.

Out of their seven days training, today was the first day and although she best when it comes to medics, she was still determined to work hard to be promoted.

"There are one hundred and ten of you here but there are only ten red balls inside that bush," the man pointed at the bush behind him. It wasn't like the bush was all filled with thick weeds, it was spacious and had a lot of trees in there.

"At the count of one to three, you all should speed inside there and search. Goodluck to the ten people that will replace the balls," once the man said this, he counted from one to three and all the generals ran inside the bush.

The grandwar king who was left alone checked his wrist watch and sighed. All of a sudden, a woman ran towards him. She saluted him Respectfully and then said, "how about our deal, sir?"

"Don't worry, she won't make it out of there alive," the Grandwar king assured her. "I already have everything planned out."

"Oh good." Donna said satisfactorily then she quickly walked away before anyone could replace her. Yesterday, Richard had invited her over rebuking her over the DNA result saga. Actually, it was Donna who liased with the doctor of the hospital that Richard went to do the test to give him a test result that proves that he's the father of the kids.

Now that the truth was out that Richard isn't the father of her kids, she felt at a loss and was curious as to whom the father of the kids could be. Could it be the stranger that Katherine had sex with years ago that impregnated her?

Katherine looked like her greatest threat. She had liased with Wendi to insist on proceeding with the war unless the god of war agreed to marry her. As his fiancee, he could easily get rid of her so Donna felt very insecure. But as his wife, she would have to sign the divorce paper if they must path ways.

It seems Katherine and Derrick are in a secret relationship otherwise why would Derrick go to the supreme house often. Derrick even went to Richard's house himself to get the kids. The god of war wouldn't do such to just any officer.

Well, she had made a deal with this very Grandwar king to get rid of Katherine, that way, she would have no threat and her relationship with Derrick would be secure.

In the forest, Katherine kept searching alongside many other Generals. She suddenly heard someone shout, "there are two balls here."

She sped fast towards the place since it's only one person that was there, she wanted to be the one to pick the second ball, just when she was about getting there, she got trapped in a bait. The bait had a sharp mouth and it struck her hard in the leg. She screamed in pain and fell to the floor. Blood was already falling off her legs but it seems there was no one available to help her.

She screamed again and again until she lost the strength. She held onto her legs painfully, whereas, there was someone watching from afar. After seeing that her screams has reduced, she rushed up to her and immediately covered her face with a polythene bag, Katherine immediately began to replace it hard to fight. She was bleeding, fast loosing strength and fast loosing breath. She was helpless.

Her mind trailed back to her kids. What would be the fate of her kids if she dies? All her effort to push the person away was futile, when she was almost giving up, she suddenly heard a loud thud. Then at once, the polythene bag was taken away from her face.

On opening her eyes, she saw Derrick. "Marshall!" She called.

He quickly squatted beside her and removed the bait that held hard tightly to her leg, seeing her bleeding leg, he immediately carried her in a bridal style, "be strong."

He then walked fast until he appeared to the training ground. When the Grandwar king saw Derrick carrying Katherine, he was shocked to the gut.

"Get me the car!" He shouted and the man immediately came to his senses then ran inside a car and drove it towards him. At once, he placed her at the backseat of the car then sat with her even as the car drove over to the military's hospital.

Katherine was loosing strength and was still bleeding despite the fact that the bait had been taken off her legs. Whenever her eyes wants to close, he would speak, "your kids needs a mother. Stay strong."

Katherine would nod and try hard to hold steadfast onto life. How could she die now? By the time she eventually pulled over before the hospital, her eyes were already closed.

He called her repeatedly but got no response, he stepped down from the car and saw the nurses running over with stretcher, he helped in carrying her to the stretcher and watched as she was rushed away.

He clenched his fist hard and mumbled to himself, "Someone here hates her so much that they even want her dead."

He then said to the Grandwar king that had driven them here, "I kicked a woman who was trying to kill Katherine, she must still be laying there unconscious, bring her for me."

"Got it, General." The Grandwar king said and drove over to the training ground. He ran inside the bush and easily found the spot where the woman that Derrick kicked laid.

If he takes this woman to Derrick, he would definitely investigate her and asked who sent her. He was the one who sent her to kill Katherine. Would it not be better to just kill this woman now and just claim that he found her dead.
