You can't find me

Chapter 32

Alexander's POV

"Your highness your coronation is scheduled for next month on the full moon. The list for all the neighboring kingdom's prestigious members has been finalized by the council. We just need you to approve it. As for the security I-"

I hold my hand up for my advisor to shut up. He places all the papers he has on my desk and waits for my response. 

"That's all for the morning. I'll have someone send you the updates once I'm done going over them, Oliver." 

"Yes, your highness. Thank you." he says before bowing his head and leaving.

I cross my leg over the other and haul it up on my desk while I grab his papers. These past few weeks and upcoming ones would be so fucking busy I probably would have to get on some medications to be awake through it all. 

I gaze over the guest list and cross off names there would no way be I would be wanting to come across till I die. 

The security pages are miles long and I scan over the leads who would be taking care of everything. 

The door slams open and I grit my teeth knowing there is a very small amount of people who can get away with it without laying dead next to the door. 

"Ah my dear brother. You look so charming while you work, did you know that?" Nik says before taking my drink and sitting in the chair in front of me. 

I take my feet off the desk and unbutton my jacket. 

"What do you want, Nik? You know how busy-"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. You got that generous amount of papers in front of you, I can see. I just wanted to talk to you about a girl..."

I massage my temple before staring at him. 

"There is no girl. Stop pestering me about your random bullshit. I don't have time for this."

He fucking laughs at my statement. 

"Does Aurora Valentino strike some recognization??" he says while waiting for a reaction. 

I blow out a breath and roll my eyes. 

"Yes and she's a pain in my arse. Now if that's all you wanted to hear-"

"Did you know she's related to the Eversons?" he says with a damn smirk.

"Your fucking kidding me aren't you?" I sneer at him. 

"Nah, just stating facts, brother. She's one of their daughters. It all makes sense now if you ask me. Her grades, her abilities, her personality..."

"What the fuck?! And you thought this wasn't important enough to tell me? Nik you knew how much trouble she cost me, I just got a hold of her..." I say and stand up from my seat. 

He get's up as well. 

"Welll you did say you were busy... And you better have someone check if she's even still there, that girl has a thing for escaping the people who hold her hostage..." he says with a smug expression after knowing he knew something that I didn't.

"Get out." I tell him and point towards the door. 

"I was just leaving" he says before vanishing in thin air.

I hail the guards that are supposed to be outside her door. 

"Yes your highness what can I-"

"Go check up on her you fucking idiot." I say with one hand clenched on my armchair.

"Uh your high-"

He really didn't know when to just get to the damn point. 

"Just tell me what's wrong, Rick."

I button up my jacket and attach some of my knifes to my boot from my locker. 

"She escaped? Uh I'm sorry I don't know for how long she's been gone for?" he whimpers. 

"Are you questioning or telling me? Use all the trainees to look for her too the others are occupied." I say and end the call. 

Fucking donkey has been working for me for so long and still slipped up so many times. 

I close up the locker and am about to head on out when the door bangs open again with an enraged Cas. 

"Where the fuck is that bitch?" he yells at me.

I look over the papers that I had finished going over and then glare at him. 

"Do I look like a damn receptionist? I don't keep track of all your sleeping buddies. Hire someone if you want someone to do that for you." I retort. 

Before he responds I add on, "By the way you look like shit." 

His entire left side of his face is a dark red and he has purple bags under his eyes. 

"She fucking did this!! The audacity that bitch had. I ain't leaving her now even if the devils come down and take me." he says with rage in his eyes. 

I get a good laugh at that. 

"You couldn't handle a small girl? How the hell are you a war mage? Go back to training school kiddo." I say and slam the desk to laugh at his astonished face. 

"FUCK!!" he screams before running out the door. 

Damn that girl better be running for her fucking life, I think as I head to my board meeting.
