When Queen Elora checked up on Eliina, it was almost dinner time. Her daughter often gets busy in her studies or her tech passion.

So, it is only at meal times they had to force her to join them.

First, she made a call to her daughter but when she didn't answer, she sent a maid to inform her.

However, when Eliina didn't open the door, it was only when Queen Elora used master key to open the chambers.

And, it is only when she realized that her daughter is not there inside.

She hurriedly ordered all the guards to search for her in the palace.

In a few seconds, the peaceful palace turned into chaos. Everyone was deeply worried and tensed as they searched every nuke and corner just to find out she vanished..

"Where would she have gone?" Elora asked, tearing up as her legs trembled.

With the tight security there is no way others would have forced her out of the palace. She herself should have gone out willingly.

"Mom, cool down, okay. Elle is a tough girl" Natalie comforted her mother in law.

"I already checked out and it seems like Elle sneaked out of the palace using one of the underworld tunnel. She must have hacked into systems to open it and our guess is that she went to country S" Ethan who just came inside, said.

"Country S, why?" King Edgar asked.

"Boyfriend might be" Ethan briefly answered. "Charlotte told me Eliina have boyfriend"

"WHAT??!!" King Edgar asked in shock.

Ethan just nodded his head.

"Is...is she fine? Should we inform Edward and Brina about this?" Elora asked now terrified.

"We are still checking Eliina's whereabouts. And, no need to inform them. Brina will freakout" Ethan answered.

"Who is Eliina's boyfriend? Could he be the reason she didn't come home?" King Edgar asked, for the first time, angry at his princess.

She would have informed him that she has a boyfriend and is going out to meet him. She is twenty years and not a kid anymore.

So, he would have allowed her to date, at least after a long discussion and sending a few men to protect her.

It isn't necessary to sneak out like this!! He is not a bad father!!

"Don't know yet. We are still digging up" Ethan told his father.

"Hurry up. I will send our our men and inform others too" Edgar said.

Ethan just nodded his head before looking at his wife and mother who are scared.

These are not good days to sneak out like this!

"I will be looking into this. And, Nat, you can go back to sleep" he said to his wife who seems shaken up given with her sensitive personality.

"Mom...dont be scared. I will give my best efforts and believe in Elle. She is not easy to trick" he comforted his step mother who just leaned on his shoulder and sobbed.

She wouldn't be able to bear if anything happens to any of her kids here.

....

"Did you like this?" Diego asked Eliina.

He asked the maids to prepare a special romantic dinner for both of them.

He even had arranged for a beautiful candle light dinner on the private beach of their palace. All he is trying is to lighten her mood.

"Jerk" Eliina muttered as she glared at him.

"I was brought as a hostage and why am I feeling like you are the one who asked for this. You seems happy for what happened to me" she fired out.

Diego shook his head horizontally.

"I am happy that we got time to spend together. I won't lie, but, I am definetly not happy that you came here as a hostage. I always wanted you to bring here as my this fiancee or my wife" he answered.

"It would not have happened and it never will. I am not entering this palace again, especially not as daughter in law of a murderer" she answered, her eyes red.

Diego's eyes widened and he frantically looked around.

As no one is standing in close proximity, they wouldn't have heard her.

"Murderer? How could you be so sure?" he whispered.

Eliina smirked. "You are shocked that I know how monstrous your family is, right. I know much more than this and that's why I would never become daughter in law to your father" she sarcastically said, standing up.

"I am done with this worst dinner of my life. Good night to you, your highness" she said and walked away.

Diego pursed his lips, his heart being pricked by millions of needles. 'My father is my destructor. He broke my heart not once but many times' he thought, closing his eyes, controlling his tears.

Meanwhile, as soon as Eliina exited the private beech, she was stopped by a barrier of gyards.

"I am not running away! Just show me the goddamn room" she huffed.

When she saw Diego walking towards her, she extended her hand, gesturing to him not to come near her.

"I don't want anyone, especially this jerk here" she said. She is very angry that he is acting as if nothing happened.

Date! Really!!!

Yeah, for him, it's nothing. But for her, it's her family in stake.

"But…" Diego was about to say something but Eliina just walked away.

"She really is a princess." he muttered as he looked at her retarding figure

'But how the fuck she know that my father is a murderer? No one knows that he is the one who killed his brother's family' Diego wondered.

….

Meanwhile...

Mid night.

"Dad, we need to call Edward and Brina back," Ethan said, as he barged into the monitor room where his father was looking for footage.

"Why?? Is something wrong?" King Edgar asked, his heart thumping loudly.

"I think I found out who Eliina's boyfriend is" Ethan said.

"Who?" Edgar asked.

"Not sure of who he is, but I am sure about where he comes from" Ethan answered.

"Kingdom Wentris" he added.

He luckily got the footage of the flower shop which is opposite to the hotel where Eliina stayed.

They have a secret CCTV camera and it is how he found out in which car Eliina and her boyfriend went in.

After tracking it, he found out that he flew from Kingdom Wentris.

That was the only flight that matched with Diego's timing. So, it could be that his sister got tricked!!

Meanwhile, King Edgar started feeling some pressure in his heart.

"Then...th-" he is about to continue but Ethan interjects at him .

"There are chances she might have got kidnapped" Ethan finished the sentence.

"Hurry up and find out what happened then!! Edgar said, totally tensed.

"I am on it, dad" Ethan said.

"Then, I will call Edward and ask him to come back," Edgar told him.

….

Meanwhile…

United States…

It is night time.

And, Brina's and Louis's room is totally heated up.

Louis is being over passionate and he is totally turned on and dominative.

Brina is hardly able to breathe in peace.

After all it was her who seduced him tonight with his favorite color sexy nightgown which showcased her beautiful curves and swollen stomach.

"Don't blame me later, love. I already warned you about my increased insatiably and hunger" Louis hissed, his body already sweating up after their two rounds.

But he isn't no where near to ending the session.

And, it is when his phone started to ring.

"These calls are really annoying" he grunted as his hands searched for his mobile on the table and then switched it off.
