Jenette couldn't understand how everything Changed in a blink of eye. Both Kiel and Lucas. She couldn't believe that Kiel was dead? She did feel guilty of herself.  But it didn't stay long. She just mislead Athanasia, the child she had carried was Ezekiel's but was that important? It's father is now no more, Jenette knew that Athanasia had no feelings For Lucas, that's why she lied, she had no ill intention on that. She sat there.  It's been already a long time, she hadn't heard of the Alpheus's,  her uncle did come and told her to be strong, but she couldn't be more than this. She had been broken completely, did she really love Ezekiel? She thought of their happy moments, it was Ezekiel who quarreled with her, she didn't!

" Princess! Princess! "

" Yes? "

" Something terrible has occurred! "

" Huh? "

" Alpheus residence!  It's on fire! "

" WHAT! "

Jenette couldn't make off the situation, it was the middle of the night... How in the world!

" Hoe did this happen? Uncle? Is he alright? "

" P-princess you need to be strong!"

" ........"

The news had spread like fire. Duke Alpheus was nowhere to be found as if that man had completely disappeared leaving no trace! No one had any words, Claude tried his best to find out what happened, was that related to her too? Claude couldn't think straight, Jenette rushed at the hall, she couldn't control herself anymore, At first Ezekiel then Lucas then her uncle too?! Why?! Why?! Jenette couldn't help anymore she fainted.

Claude couldn't think straight. He knew if he didn't execute her the killings would spread like fire, he sent those guards to everywhere he could. But to no avail. He couldn't find him anywhere , he needed to think about Jenette's health too. For the first time in his life he regretted for favourism. He wanted to grab his hair and tear them apart. He had really been a bad father, he couldn't tell anyone who the
r

eal killer was. Why couldn't he? Was there any affection left for her? Claude for the first time felt guilty and understood that he shouldn't have cast Away Athanasia, he was terrible father hiding his baby daughter's crime from a young age. He wanted to meet Athanasia.

" Your Majesty, we can't find Princess Athanasia either. "

" Felix! Search wherever you can, I'm certain that Duke Alpheus has been kidnapped. "

" Who.. Do you suspect Y-your Majesty?! "

" Is this something I should tell you? We must find our Duke Alpheus before its too late. "

" What about Princess Athanasia? "

" That's not important! She will return by herself, nothing in the world will harm her. Now hurry up! "

" Glory and blessings upon the Sun of Obelia. "

" CLAUDE!"

Both the emperor and the knight turned back, they saw the Empress standing at the door, Claude couldn't make off what Diana would be doing here. Diana's face was disgusted with guilt and fear.

" What is it now? You shouldn't be here. Felix! Escort Diana to her room. "

" Yes Your Majesty.  Glory and blessings upon the Moon of Obelian Empire. "

" Wait! Don't dare touching me! Sir Felix leave! It's our Personal talk you shouldn't be here. "

" What is it Diana. Felix leave. "

" Glory and blessings upon the Sun and Moon of Obelian Empire. "

Felix nervously left the room. Little did Claude know that all of his secrets were revealed.

" Claude we need to talk! "

" .........."

" Where is Athanasia? "

".....!"

" Who is Athanasia? "

"........."

" I knew that you would never tell me so I tried to invest by my own. "

" What? Didn't I tell you, she's a relative only? "

" Oh?  So our only one daughter is your relative only? "

" .....!"

" Claude! I remember everything single thing! It's me who's given birth to Athanasia, yet told you to take care of her. I never thought you could neglect her this much! "

"........."

" She's so innocent, she's both skilled in grace and beautiful, she tries to grab your attention by everything. But you? You never payed ant attention to her. "

" ........"

" It's my fault! Mine! If only I recognized Princess ,then I could..... * sobs* I am a terrible mother. It's my, my fault! Who knows, what would the kidnapper do to her? "

" Kidnapper? Are you joking? "

" ATHANASIA IS KIDNAPPED CLAUDE! "

" Do you even know about your daughter? "

" What is their to know about? She's weak, she won't even be able to resist. "

" Really? I never wanted to let you know the truth, but I have to now. Your Daughter is the kidnapper, not anyone else. "

" .........Lie... You're lying.. Liar.. LIAR! "

" I'm not lying, I told you not to ask about this. You didn't listen. Your Daughter kidnaps and kills people since she was a toddler. "

" The Princess.... Those gentle eyes, those motherly behavior.. How could you say... That she.. Is the killer! "
