It's been hours since Madin managed to escape from the palace and it's starting to raise the suspension.

Prince Arthur hasn't asked for him to go see him since earlier because he feels bad thinking that he is pressuring "her"

Besides , he's been busy emersed himself in the scene earlier , when he kissed "her" and she didn't resist , in fact "she" moved closer to him .

That thought make him so happy , he can't stop thinking about the kiss , he has been smiling idiotically and at some point he find himself talking to himself.

" Am very sure she feels something for me too, but why is she refusing to accept it ?! " this is the question that is giving him a headache, every time it comes to his head the smile vanishes and his mood changes .

The knock on the door brings him back to reality.  " Yes " he says smiling knowing that it's his love coming to inform him about the meal, he knows it's time but he still wait for her to come inform him . He never waited when he had those other past maids... when the door opens and it's not her but another servant, it makes his smile drop .

" Your highness, the mea..."

He cuts her .  "Where is Maya? Shouldn't she be the one informing me of that?"

" Your highness, the royal family has been waiting for your arrival at the table for some time now but you didn't go , so they sent me to inform you ." She say nervously.

" Where is Maya ?" he asks yet again.

" We thought she was in here with you  because we've been looking for her to come inform you but she was not found."

" What do you mean she was not found ?! " he stands up immediately asking.

" sh.."

He leaves her there going out of the room . He rushes down the stairs, through the corridors exiting the mansion .

"Find Jeremy for me now . " he sends one of the guards who was standing outside the mansion. He paces around as he wait. It's now that he feels Madin's absence around. 

People around the palace are looking at him fearfully knowing that something is terribly wrong and the one that caused it is in a very terrible problem.

Minutes later Jeremy come rushing.

" Your highness.."

He cuts him . " Where is she ? I've been told she can't be found around the palace and because I told you to look after her, you must know where she is , where is she? Tell her I need to see her now because it seems she's neglecting her duties . " he says trying to keep calm but something in him is triggered because he know even if he is telling Jeremy to bring Madin to him , he knows it won't happen because he can't feel him anywhere around but he just doesn't want to accept it .

" Your highness, I..."

He cuts him again . " I asked you to bring her to me , not to call me or say anything to me . " his voice is raising bit by bit which is capturing people's attention more and more.

"I lost her track , I've been looking for her for hours now.. but I can't find.. her , your highness I apo.."

Jeremy's words are cut before he finishes.

" What are you talking about?! You can't find her ?! What were you doing when she got out of your sight?! Tell me ! " he thunders with anger , people watch nervously from a distance as he turns to the feared prince that everyone is afraid of .

Unconsciously he grips Jeremy's neck . The royal family is alerted and they run outside.  The king try to stop him and he let go after a struggle, Jeremy drops on the floor.

" Have you gone mad ?! " the king scolds .
" Get hold of yourself!! Can't you see everyone is watching?! You are the next king and when they see you like this do you know what will happen?! "

" Who cares what will happen , all that matters it's that she is gone father !! Sh.." he says not being able to get hold of himself.

" Hey ! I've told you to get hold of Yourself ! Come back to your senses !" The king thunders shaking Arthur's shoulders which bring him to reality.

He looks around seeing the attention he is creating, remembering he is the once strong , respected prince and future king , he bites his teeth together tightly, trying to get hold of himself.

He walks back in the mansion telling himself he would rather break down in his room.

Michael has been watching all that from a distance ,  looking  worried .

" What are you still standing here for ?!  Find the girl ! All the Knights should be out there getting her back!" The king instructs .

No matter how this is making him and his son look weak , he couldn't stand the sight of his favourite son hurt to the extent of breaking down infront of the crowd . He knows him as an ambitious and strong son since a younger age . His passion has always been to become the king like his father and rule his people with much care like his father .

He has nurtured him so well , he has always won all the battles and in time of crisis he has always had great solutions  . The king understands that this must be bad to make him breakdown like this .

..." I never thought love could drive someone crazy.  Especially not the famous prince Arthur! " Princess Loretta, the youngest in the family says , sighing loudly as she joins other royal family going back inside.

" Is it just me or anyone else thinks that , that girl might have done something to Arthur, to make him like this, there must be something behind it ! I refuse to believe that this is my brother in this situation just because of a servant ! He even rejected princess Fernanda just for her and now he's  going crazy just because she left  . Don't you think this is weird?!" Prince Jona , the third in the family adds.

" If you've never been in love shut up . " Princess Amelia says.

" I don't understand why you let him cut ties with Lady Fernanda in the first place ! Now what are people going to say about this ? First their great prince left a very fine princess and now he's going crazy because of a useless servant! " the queen argues.

" What do you care about what people think , all we should care about is our son's happiness!" The king argues back as they get to Arthur's room.

He refuses to let anyone in .
