Chapter 104: Dirty - clean sheet

"Could you please explain more? I think I am kind of lost here."

"If you could think it through, good for you, but if you can not, then, what can I say? I can not tell you anything more than this, I am sorry."

Oberon felt weak and sat down on a chair, he held his head, trying so hard to calm himself. He was already under so much pressure and it kept increasing."

"What am I supposed to do now?" He muttered still searching his brain for an answer.

’I hope this Alpha is not a slow one, the answer is glaring right at him and he still can not figure it out?’

Good luck with whatever you are doing, can I get my horse and gold rings now?*

Oberon looked up at him and nodded, "That.. yes.. you.. shall get them," he said weakly.

"Do not be so bothered, you have to calm down and think this through, connect those pieces and why not start with ’Nyx’?"

He squinted his eyes in thought, "I think you are right, I will try my best, thank you for your information."

He nodded , feeling so pleased with himself, "I will wait here. You can go get what I requested."

"I can not bring a horse in here, there is no way I would do that."

"What about the gold rings? The horse can wait outside," he replied.

Oberon sighed and walked out feeling so tired and curious at the same time.

The Lycan watched him leave the throne room and sighed, "Hm, I wish I could help, sadly my hands are tied," he said to himself, feeling somewhat sorry for him.

...

"Here you go, your horse and your gold rings. I have granted your request, happy now?"

He shrugged, "Well, thank you," he smirked and walked out on him.

Oberon was feeling lost and sad too, he watched the Lycan disappear into the darkness of the night.

"What does Nyx know about this? She says he is with Dora and she does not even know where they are," he whispered, still lost in the middle of random thoughts.

He walked back into the palace, and ran into his mother, "Mother?"

"I heard, what is going on right now? Does Nyx know about this?"

He nodded, "She says, he is with Dora and she does not know where they headed to. Is that not strange?"

Elena creased her brows in thought, "It is quite strange tho, I mean, that is not what someone would do, a mother infact."

"That is why I am concerned, what if something is happening? What if something is wrong and we have to correct it quickly?"

"Calm down, well, you have to think of a way forward, we should be able to come up with possible answers. Did you not ask Nyx?"

"I did but.. she was not giving a very good answer," he rolled his eyes.

"What if I asked her? She would answer me properly right?"

"Let us give it a try then. You go and ask her, while I connect more dots."

Elena nodded and turned around going to Nyx’s room.

Oberon watched her walk away, his heart still pounding in disbelief, "Something is not just right? Why can I not figure it out?"

He thought about what the Lycan had said, he had said his son was with his ’sister’ and Nyx said he was with Dora.

"If he was with Dora and he is at the same time with my sister? Wait.." he paused and tried to think hard.

"Who is Dora?" He arched his brow, just realizing he didn’t even know who Dora was.

"I never even asked," he muttered.

"Maybe If I know who she is and ask around about her, this should get more clearer," he told himself and walked back to Nyx’s room.

It wouldn’t hurt if he asked a few questions too.

REWIND

-----

Andrew was pleased to find out Nyx was dead but then he knew he had to do something with her body.

"What am I supposed to do with it?" He thought.

Walking to her bedside, he took her hand to finally confirm her death, her hands were not moving and her skin was cold.

"Hmm, she is dead," he chuckled and walked back, "Now, what to do with her body.." he looked around, "Take her out of this building first of all," he huffed.

With a lot of resentment, he carried her body up and dragged her outside preparing to bury her body.

Taking a hoe, he dug a hole and put her body in it, "That should do it, you will be fine here," he grinned and covered it up.

"Good riddance Nyx, you are no longer needed, my daughter will be just fine as the Luna," he cackled.

"Finally! She is gone for good!"

He looked around for any sign of someone and walked out of that place as if nothing had happened.

So the question is, is Nyx really dead?

BACK TO THE PALACE

Oberon came into the room, Elena was sitting beside her, trying to ask her about the whereabouts of Archi and Dora but she still gave her the answer she gave to Oberon.

"I do not know where they are beside, you do not need to panic, they will eventually come back, why are you so worried?"

"You are not worried at all? Your son is nowhere to be found and it does not bother you? Nyx is this really you?!"

’For goodness sake! I am not Nyx!’

"You have a few questions to answer Nyx, and please I demand you answer them truthfully."

’He wants to start his drama again?’

"Let us hear it then," she answered as calmly as possible.

"You say Archi is with Dora right?"

"Yes, he is."

"And you do not know where they are?"

She nodded, "Exactly, how do you expect me to know?"

"When did they leave the palace?"

She stopped, trying to think of answer, "Well.. about.. uh.. Noon."

"So they were here in the morning and left around noon.. correct?"

"What exactly is your point?"

"Which guard did you appoint to follow them?"

"Uh.. Blackeye!"

Oberon raised his eyes in surprise, "Blackeye? Oh no, I saw him a few minutes ago, Infact, he is among the guards searching for him," he said laying emphasis on the searching.

’Oh no! What have I done?’ She bites her fingernails.

"So.. you are lying?" Elena chips in.

"No.. no, I probably made a mistake, my head hurts," she held her head hoping that would avert the questioning.

"You have to answer, what is going on? What are you trying to do with your own son?!" Elena asked her.

Risa’s head was now a whack, she could not think properly and was getting scared too. What if her cover was blown?

"I meant to say Blackwood and not Blackeye, it was all a mistake," she fumbled.

Elena looked at her suspiciously, "Blackwood is in the palace, he did not go anywhere, what are you saying?"

She bit her lips in confusion, what was going on?

Oberon squinted his eyes in suspicion, "Tell me what is going on right now? This does not feel right anymore, tell me what you have done!"

She knew there was no way she was letting her plan ruin so easily, she darted her eyes thinking of a possible plan to tell them.

Suddenly she palmed her face and broke down in tears, "Oh no! This is all my fault, now, oh goodness!" She cried.

Elena and Oberon were thrown off balance, "What is the matter all of a sudden?"

She shook her head, "I thought I would keep this a secret from you but now it seems I can not do it any longer!" She yelled.

Elena got worried, "What is the matter? Tell us."

"They were kidnapped and not by a rogue, but.. but.."

"But by who?" Elena asked in shock but Oberon got all the more suspicious, that Lycan had told him, Archi was with his sister.

"A Lycan rogue!"

Both Oberon and Elena gasped in shock, "A Lycan rogue?!"

He quickly flashed back and felt defeated and cheated, so the kidnapper of his heir came right into his palace and even robbed him?

"So that is why he refused to tell me their location!"

Elena looked at him, "What is the matter son?"

"He came here! And I was so blind not to notice it! How was I such a fool?"

He stormed out of the room in rage.

Elena began to cry, "Why? How could you keep this from us?! Why did you not report this immediately?!"

She continued crying, "I was confused and scared, I did not know what to do," her face still in her palms.

"We will find him, we will find him," she held her shoulders, crying with her too.

’That was a close one Risa, keep your sheet clean and keep going!’
