The Alien King's Alluring Obsession

Killian

"Miss Edna had just finished her bath and she was cleaning her body in the bedchamber. Emily and I were disposing the used water in the pool from her bath." Cassandra replied.

Cassandra was taking too long to finish her explanation. I had to suppress the urge to do something drastic before it consumes me.

She continued, "Then, we heard a noise. Emily and I rushed out to find the source of the noise. That was when we saw a man in black clothes. He was holding miss Edna captive. He threatened to kill the future Queen if we moved or alerted anybody. We didn't want that outcome so we kept quiet."

Emily explained, "We didn't want anything to happen to the Future Queen, my King. We believed your majesty would be able to save her later. Our incompetence let the assassin get away. Please, forgive our mistake, your majesty." The things they were saying made sense but something wasn't adding up.

I tried to keep the grief boiling in my heart under control.

No matter how strange their story was, a fact still stands. Edna is not in a place I can reach immediately.

I don't know what she's going through. I don't know if she was hurt.

I'm in the dark.

I don't know anything.

I stopped myself from going into a downward spiral.

Edna will be fine. I would make sure she returned to me safe and sound.

She was my lifeline.

The moment I discovered her presence, I tried my best to see her frequently. I would often become weak whenever I visit her dreams.

Visiting her drained my power but I did not regret anything.

I did not stop because of the intense power consumption. Edna was worth all that and more.

I can get back to my peak by practicing.

Right now, I can't pinpoint where Edna was. Entering her dreams had become an impossible task.

I noticed this little issue when I saw her physically.

I don't know if the combination of her new powers and my planet caused this.

Since she was here with me, I ignored this issue.

When I didn't have Edna, it was fine.

Now, I had seen how beautiful and wonderful she was. It was hard to be normal.

It was hard to go back to how things was in the past.

Now, someone took her away from me. I would never let the culprit go.

I would make sure I see the culprit's flesh and bones torn from their body, bit by bit.

The people behind Edna's disappearance would seek death but wouldn't find it.

My piercing eyes turned to Cassandra, "There are guards outside the Royal bedchamber. Do you mean to tell me that the assassin made no sound? Do you mean to tell me the assassin took Edna away from the Royal bedchamber without alerting any of the numerous guards in front of the door?"

"Your majesty, I am at fault here." Jelena spoke up.

I turned my dark gaze to her, "What do you mean? What did you do?"

My second sentence was dark. I knew the kind of thing I have in store for whoever is involved in Edna's kidnapping.

Jelena was a very good suspect. She had all the motives needed to act.

Jelena took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "I walked past this court hall a few hours ago. I heard when you mentioned the guards and the future Queen. I thought you wanted their presence so I passed a message to them. I didn't know an assassin would take that chance as a window of opportunity to kidnap the queen."

I lowered my eyelids to hide the dark fury in them, "Jelena, did I ever need your help in contacting my guards before? What is the watch on my wrist for? Is it a decoration to you? You have the nerve to direct all the guards in front of the Royal bedchamber away without my permission. The maids are even the first people to bring this issue to my attention. Are you trying to tell me you don't have an ulterior motive?"

"Your highness, the guards must have noticed something wrong so they didn't get to you speedily. They might be investigating the kidnap. I am so sorry, Your majesty." Jelena said. Jelena must be involved in Edna's kidnapping. I didn't need evidence to arrive at this conclusion.

My sixth sense was telling me that jelina was definitely involved in Edna's disappearance.

I knew Edna. She wasn't weak. She was a beautiful, strong and kind lady. If she didn't feel threatened, she wouldn't have reported Jelena to me.

Besides, Edna had a superpower. She would not let the unknown assassin kidnap her easily. She must have made some kind of noise to alert the guards outside.

I don't know if the guards Jelena lured away had returned when my soulmate was struggling.

My heart constricted in pain.

I don't even want to imagine how Edna felt as she was taken away.

My eyes stung.

Edna must be feeling like I was unreliable when she was taken away. I can't believe it. Someone took her away under my nose.

I wasn't the king of Blue planet at all, I was just a coward. I was weak.

I focused on the likely culprit of this incident, Jelena.

It is a little coincidental for Edna to disappear today after she reported Jelena to me. I don't really believe in coincidence.

There must be something fishy going on and I must get to the end of it.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

The story Jelena and the maids were talking about wasn't adding up.

Firstly, they said an assassin attacked and the maids weren't able to alert the guards with noise or something else.

Secondly, Jelena said she had called the guards away because of me, so they wouldn't have been able to hear any noise the assassin might have made.

Their alibi felt like it was impregnable.

I thought I would give Jelena and her father a light punishment for the threats Jelena said to Edna. Now, everything had changed.

I would personally pull the truth from Jelena's teeth even if it is the last thing I do.

I walked over to Cassandra and Emily.

My hand landed on Cassandra's head. A purple glow started to bloom in my palm.

The purple glow sank into Cassandra's head. Her erratic eyes started to calm down. Finally, she stared at the empty air blankly. I closed my eyes.

Her memories started to play in my head.

After a while, I released Cassandra's head. My expression didn't get any better. In fact, it worsened.

I didn't find anything by combing through Cassandra's memory. Everything in her memory correlated with what she said out loud.

The appearance of the assassin was a little blurry but the rest of the things she saw were as clear as they were in reality.

Because of my anger, I didn't really search Cassandra's memory with the protection of her mind as a goal.

The side effect of my actions was idiocy. She would live with a permanent mental injury from now on.

I didn't feel.mercy or pity for her predicament. To me, she was involved in Edna's disappearance.

She couldn't protect her future mistress. That was already a strike for her in my records.

As you reach the final pages, remember that 000005s.org is your destination for the complete story. Share the joy of reading with others and spread the word. The next chapter is just a visit away! I reached towards Emily.

"My King, please pardon me. Forgive us, please." Emily pleaded but I was unmoved.

My hand clamped the top of her head and my power began to stir.

I combed through Emily's memory too.

She saw the same thing Cassandra experienced. The only difference was the angle.

Emily was in the same state Cassandra was in but her mental injury was minimal. Her idiocy could be healed. I still have plans for her so I searched her memories carefully.

"Go and call the guards that had been protecting the Royal bedchamber." I have something to ask.

One of the guards in the hall left.

I could have sent them a message through my smart device but I didn't do so. I wanted time to myself.

I needed to calm my anger before I see those guards. If I meet them right now, I might destroy every one of them.

Within minutes, a group of guards walked into the hall.

'The Queen you were supposed to protect is missing. What do you have to say about that?" I said calmly.

'Your majesty, we are sorry." One of the guards said.

I glared at him, "Don't tell me you are sorry. I don't want apologies. Answer the question I asked."

"Okay sir." He nodded, "Jelena came to tell us that you needed our presence. We noticed something was wrong when we were on our way to the court hall. We return to the Royal bedchamber in haste. Only the two maids remained in the room. The room was scattered. The future Queen and Jelena was nowhere to be found. We were supposed to report this incident to you the moment we noticed the issue but we didn't. We wanted to find more evidence before coming to you." The guard explained.

"Good, my inaction this past few months has caused a problem. This is all my fault." I muttered.

If I hadn't been so chill these past few months, my guards would have reported this incident to me when they saw Edna was gone. They would not take matters into their own hands like this. Silence reigned in the hall.

"Now, all of you should follow me to the dungeon. We have many things to go over." I smiled.

I tapped the surface of my watch and mobilized the available guards.

I only gave them one order.

They should find Edna, at any cost.
