Author's POV
Ava became worried since Connor has left Suddenly this morning, she hasn't set her eyes on him.
"Any news?" She asked her guard for the upteenth time.
"No, your highness."
She couldn't bear the thought of him not in the palace, what should she do? Ava asked herself over and over again.
The thing is, this guard of hers won't leave her side and she had asked him to go, but he remained at her side claiming that he was carrying out an order, By who? he wouldn't say.
Just when she was thinking of sending him away yet again, a maid came running in.
"Your highness!" She shouted and rushed to the dining room. The guards intercepted her,
"Where do you think you are? Don't you know the rules?" A guard said sternly and rudely.
"I have to speak to her highness, it's very urgent, it's about...." She started but he cut her short. "I reckon you've forgotten that it doesn't matter what you have to say, you're not allowed in here!"
"Bu..but...I have to..."
"Let her in." Ava ordered simply, She was beginning to get irritated with their interlude.
Ava's POV
"Speak!" I said, harshly.
The poor woman actually trembled against my tone of voice.
"What do you want to talk about?" I said more gently. I didn't mean to shout at her, I was just so infuriated that I passed my aggression on her.
"Well, you highness...." She started, with her face down. "The Young lad is awake and very restless." She said in her thick island accent. The mention of Jap made ever thing except for Connor take a back seat in my Brain.
"Are you okay Misus?" I stared at her blankly. "You look pale.... I think you should relax you're obviously not fit to stand on your feet...." I cut her off.
"I'm fine. I want to see him now, take me to him." I told her. The maid was twisting her hands and chewing her lips nervously.
"I said to take me to him." I half yelled, glaring at her. I feel as though blood was drained from my face and my legs shook.
Jap has woken.
"His highness has said young Misus mustn't be allowed to see the young lad, perhaps, I made a mistake by informing young Misus." She said looking at her toes,
I realised Connor must have ordered then not to let me see Jap. I haven't set my eyes on him since we brought him to the palace.
I heard he passed out on the way here. This means he just woke up since all these days.
Uh...but I really want to see him. I turned to the maid with a straight and serious face. "Take me to him."
"Your highness .. Young master " the maid stutters.
"I'm ordering you" I told her pointedly
"The Elder himself has ordered not to..."
"It's an order and unless you want to infuriate the Elder by refusing his wife's order then...." I said brashly leaving her to intercept the meaning anyhow she wants though I didn't mean to be rude but I had to make her take me to him, because I don't know where he is, Connor wouldn't let me see him.
Oh my God!, how could I forget about him.

Nichola's POV
We've been in the forest searching all day, he has already drained and k!lled 15 human and vampire both , the council has been informed about the lastest develop and it has been confirmed he has gone berserk but we don't know where he is yet,
nobody has seen him yet, just like the wind he takes his victims and attacked them at different locations, the only person that could tame him is yet to arrive, well that would be a little problem since Connor had banished her from this clan and she's not allowed in the country, well this are desperate times and she had to assume someone else's personality to get here but still she should have been here...... Just as I was thinking along that line my phone rang, I checked the screen.
A grin crossed my features, just who I wanted to hear from..
"Where are you?" I asked, I have no time for greeting.
"Well good evening to you too" the person said with a tinge in the voice
"Ala.."
"I know, we have no time to fight " the person cut me off, I'm very sure the person is smirking
"So give me an answer" I said sharply
"Easy cowboy, I'm in the compound, give me details" the person returned in an even voice
"K!lled 15 already, location unknown, but we're zommimg in on a particular place, you know where to find me." I said
"The ancient forest?"
But I already hung up, this person is really so annoying, but I do hope gets here sooner else things we definitely go out of hand, now I'm sure Ava must be chewing her hands in the palace, not knowing where her husband is and all.
I dialed the palace told them things to tell her.
"Under no circumstance, should you tell her the truth, ok?" I didn't wait for an answer, I drooped the call.
Just then a blur caught my eyes, before I could blink it was suddenly in front of me, woah I haven't see him go this fast since...
I abadoned my thought he was coming towards me, his eyes were completely black and void of any white, he moved towards like a predator,
"It's me, your best friend and guard" I said hoping he'll come to his senses.
But he suddenly hot behind me I didn't even know when, he grabbed my hair and pulled it back, oh no, he has lost it.
I should have ran, now it's too late, he'd probably k!ll me, where the f*uck are you?
Just as if my summon was heard.
"Stop, Connor, it's me Alaina don't you miss me?"
