Chapter 684 - Six Hundred And Eighty-four: A Lamb To The Slaughter (1/2)

The third point of view:

His majesty, King Kai was pissed off at being interrupted however, this was working hours, and did he forget to add, he had sex in his office. In one word, he had work to do.

Hence, after ordering his assistant through the intercom to hold off whoever was on the door for ten minutes, he and his wife, Emily, cleaned up in his bathroom and dressed up as if nothing happened before the guest was let in.

But to his surprise, the so thought guest was no other than the head of security that was in charge of Akim's safety. Seeing him here made his heart skip a beat as he suddenly felt a sense of foreboding - something seems to be wrong.

”What is it?” He asked in a slightly stern voice hoping that it wasn't what he was thinking.

”We have a little problem, your majesty,” The man said, refusing to meet his gaze.

Judy's grasp tightened on his desk, his eyes resting on Emily in a hurry knowing she would be the most affected if his gut feeling were to be true.

”What is it?” Emily asked him as if sensing this wasn't good as well.

”Honey,” He told her, ”Could you give me a bit of privacy with him?”

”No,” Emily refused almost immediately with fiery determination. She turned to the guard, ”This has to do with Akim, right?” She could feel it. Today was the day she finally gave him a bit of freedom and something must have happened. Her fears must have finally come through.

”You're right, your majesty the queen,” the guard answered her truthfully, ”His highness Akim is missing,”

At that news, Emily staggered back and it seemed like she would fall.

”Your majesty!”

”Emily!”

Judy came to her side and held by the waist, leading her to the couch in his office where he sat her down.

”What did you mean Akim is missing?!” Emily cried out, ”Was he kidnapped? Did Fiona finally get to my son?” Tears filled her eyes.

”No, your majesty, contrary to your fears, I believe prince Akim left of his accord,” he said and then went into details of his escape from school.

By the time he was done, Judy was cursing and clenching his fist. He ordered him immediately, ”Get as many men as possible and find that stupid son of mine before he lands himself in trouble. Find him before Fiona finds him!”

”Yes, your majesty!” the guard replied and was just about to leave and do his job when the king called him back.

”You said he was with a girl?” Judy asked, rubbing his chin contemplatively.
