Chapter 216: Missing
The next he was out of the throne room, the paper works could bloody go to hell! He has to see his wife and be by her. He couldn’t help the joy that rubble within him and the fear too, fear because he knew his aura within her would go berserk, but she needn’t worry, he was here and she had nothing to worry about.
"Emperor," Mint said with a bow as he gave way and the door spread open. Hoping to set his eyes on his radiating mate and her bump, he meets with an empty room.
"WHERE IS THE EMPRESS?!"
Mint rushed in next at the sound of the Emperor’s clamorous voice, he froze when he saw an empty room, with wide eyes, this cannot be! "The Empress..."
"It seems you do not know your duty, Mint!" Nicklaus growled as his eyes turned black, with veins within them and his fangs dropped, his look murderous.
Mint fell to his knees. "Emperor I’m certain no one left the room, Lord Alaric was here, and then Mathilda and Olivia came, Olivia went to inform you about her due date and next Lady Celeste walked in leaving just Mathilda, the Empress, and her"
"Then where are they!"
"No one left the room, I’m certain"
"Does it look like anyone’s here?!"
Olivia rushed in and gasped seeing the situation, she quickly went on her knees too. "E-Emperor"
"Where is my Empress?!" at the sound of his clamorous voice, the room was impaled by sharp ice spikes, growing out of edges and walls and breaking things. Nicklaus saw red, he couldn’t think, he couldn’t contain his anger, where was she? Where was his mate?! Worry, confusion, and anger fought within him and the great Nicklaus was losing control.
Mint shielded Olivia before an ice spike impaled her, luckily he wasn’t harmed too, but he didn’t know for how long. He was able to shift backward just in the chaos. He knew definitely well that there was nothing he could do to calm the Emperor, not with the Empress and his unborn child missing! How did it happen? He was certain they were in here only to find out that they weren’t.
"Brother!" Alaric’s voice boomed and Nicklaus’ black eyes snapped at him. Alaric had never seen Nicklaus look this distorted, he needed to find a way to calm him down and grasp the situation.
"Ease yourself, Brother. Don’t let your emotions take over, control yourself and tell me what has happened"
"She’s missing," He said through gritted teeth.
"What?!", Alaric’s stormy eyes snapped at Mint, they were black just the same rage as Nicklaus. "How did this happen?!"
"Believe me Lord Alaric I do not know"
"Who was here with her, after I left!"
"Mathilda and Lady Celeste"
Alaric faced Nicklaus.
"I already checked the mind link, I cannot sense Celeste..." Nicklaus said as his fist clenched hard. "Or Yelena" he adds in a low angry tone.
"Could it be the shadow?"
"I do not know" He ran his fingers in his raven air. Alaric sauntered to him and placed his hand on his shoulder.
"We will find her"
"Where could she be? Even if it was the shadow I would have known, I have sensed it once I can tell, this is not the shadow doing"
"Then who’s?"
Nicklaus’ eyes scanned the room, his mind distorted, then he saw a gem on the table shaped in an Alphabet.

Before The Incident
"Why? You have always been cautious about that, I noticed"
"It’s..." I began but the words did come off.
She gave my hand yet another gentle squeeze. "It’s okay if you don’t wanna tell me, I understand"
"No, it’s not..."
"It’s okay, you know ever since the Elder Vampires were gone we have lost hope" she sighed. "So we sought by going off on our own, we have always been bound by the elders, and we still are, even now" she smiled at me. "Your baby is our hope"
I giggled. "You always say that"
"And I mean it, the first Demi-god" her eyes leveled to my belly. "The first born prince of offering"
My smile slowly fades. "How do you know about that?"
She blinked. "What do you mean Empress?"
"Don’t toy with me!" I snapped, surprised at even my own voice. "I never told you anything about an offering, I never made mention of that. SO how do you know my first born son will be"
She sighed, shaking her head, and it was like a mask was fallen I could see some darkness glint in her beautiful blue eyes, they weren’t beautiful right now they were hideous "The first son of Magnus making small be an offering to the Avatar of the Holy Library, Basker"
"How-"
"You think I did not know?" she ticks her tongue. "Poor child, still as naive"
"Who are you loyal to?" I asked with a stern look, weighing my next actions, but I couldn’t seem to grasp any, in my condition I wasn’t sure there was much to do, I figured I would have to rely on my emotions and conjure something against her.
"Shhh" she hushed me and I suddenly felt dizzy. "Don’t do anything stupid, Yelena, I have been with you and your unborn child you think I haven’t taken precautions?"
My back leaned on the chair, I felt weak, so weak that I couldn’t even move my mouth to speak, what has she done to me and my baby? All this time? She did something and I knew, something that even Nicklaus couldn’t even detect.
"Shhh... rest now, you need your strength for delivery, believe me when I say this Yelena I will do nothing to harm you and this blessing" she mused rubbing my bump.
Get your filthy hands off me! I surely hoped I could say that right now, but I couldn’t.
"And to answer your question, I’m loyal to-"
"The doors barge open Celeste walked in, the doors slamming shut. "There... I heard the news from Olivia" she mused.
