Octava’s pov

I thought hard on what to do next as an idea came to me.

“What if we were to call this one-eyed person and ask for something… maybe ask him if he wants a ransom? That should work.”

He shrugged. “They haven’t asked yet which means they haven’t settled. We should wait for him to ask but this could be dangerous because he doesn’t want anything to do with us, the boy would be long gone before we even know where to start looking.”

I nodded. “So you think going after him is the best option we have?”

“Not just the best but the only option I can think of right now.”

I thought hard on his words before nodding. “Alright.”

His phone buzzed as he looked at it and smiled.

“What is it?” I asked as he looked up at me, his eyes brimming with a different kind of look I had not seen in a long time.

“My team found a lead and we’re going there now.”

He ignored the car and backed away as he turned and drove to the street while I packed our food aside so it would not scatter in the car.

    Octava’s povI slowly walked into the library, where the maids had said my father would be, and noticed he was talking to some elders.I could have easily gone to where they were seated, but I decided to sit by the window and look into the dark void of the room, which faced the woods.Looking in there, I saw how dark it was over there. No one was shining a light in the woods. It was just plain darkness. I sighed. He was somewhere in there. My poor Luka. He was not even five yet and he was going through what anyone small or big could consider a scary experience,I felt like such a huge failure. How could I save him from such a horrible situation when I couldn’t even get myself to find him without breaking down within me?I wasn’t showing it. That I was feeling a lot. But that was because I didn’t want anyone to know. Yet, they could see through my facade and they knew that I was keeping a brave face.I sighed and looked at the books kept on a shelf beside me. “The art of war,” I mutter

    Jakeson’s povI walked with the guard to the dungeon. The moment I got to the entrance, I saw the queen there. She was standing on her own with the dungeon guards behind her. She had a serious look on her face. She wasn’t here to play. Good, neither was I.The moment she turned to me, I saw her eyes glow a bit. She was appearing intimidating.“Welcome. I was thinking you’d bail on me when I needed you the most.”I smiled. “You’re here. Where’s the king?”“He doesn’t concern himself with things like this. But I on the other hand like to bring pain to those who want to destroy my family,”I nodded.She then gestured for the entrance of the dungeon. “Shall we go in?”I nodded as we entered the dungeon. The moment we got in, the smell of blood and herbs hit my nose. We got to the cell to see that the man had been healed up and he was tied to the middle of the wall. Chains on both hands and feet, even around his neck to keep him steady.I walked in to see that the once hospitable cell that

    Octava’s povI did my best to stay in control. This man was not going to get to me. He was the man who hurt me badly in the past. Now he was here to hurt me again. I took a deep breath and tried to calm down. I shook my head. Told myself to forget about him. This man was not worth my feelings. I was not going to let this man get to me.“That was…” I started to say, as he completed for me. “Amazing.”I looked up at him. Then I did something without thinking. I smacked him across the cheek without thinking as his face snapped to the side.I didn’t know why that came out reflexively but it did.Slowly, he turned to look at me as I gulped. This was not how I had expected this to go.“I believe I deserve that.”I chuckled.“I’m sorry.”But he nodded. “It’s fine. No need to apologize.”We stayed in silence for a while, staring into each other's eyes as the tension between us rose high. We weren’t supposed to kiss. We were not supposed to feel anything for each other. This was a huge mistak

    Octava’s pov“I’ll be going now,” I said to Elma and Jakeson as I walked to the sliding door.But then someone held my arm, keeping me in place. I frowned. I didn’t like where this was going. I hated it. The way he was holding me like I was part of his possession, it hurt me. I turned to him.“What’s the meaning of this? Let me go.”Hesitation showed in his eyes as he shook his head.“Why are you acting this way? We aren’t done talking.”“And how am I acting? You seem to be the, what do we call you? The expert on how I’m supposed to be acting? Listen, man, I have a lot of things to do in there, alright? You and your… partner here have so many things to do.”“She isn’t… my partner.”But as usual, I didn’t believe a word of what he said.“Okay, fine. Let’s say she’s not your partner, what is she?”Elma was still standing at the door.“I’m here you know.”But we both ignore her.“If you people are looking for a fight, I am not going to give you one because I don’t have any left in me to

    Octava’s povI sat at the table, staring at my food as I had barely touched it when my mom piped up.“Octava, eat something.”I was about to reply before Elma, who was sitting a seat after Jakeson, added in.“Yes, Octava, eat something. Need your strength if you’re going to be able to find Luka.”I slowly shot her a dangerous look. I was about to argue when my father dropped in.“You two seem to be at each other's throats,” he chuckled.“Dad, you’re not being serious.”He chuckled. It was a hearty one.“If you two are enemies of some sort, I have to know. For goodness’ sake, we’re eating with her. We’re also eating with Jakeson. I have to actually know what is going on in my kingdom, much less my home, my palace.”“Then you should not have brought her in,” I said, as my mother gasped a bit.“Octava, watch how you talk to your father in front of a guest.”I used my super hearing to find out where Kaelan and Jakeson had gone, as I heard arguments, then looked back at them and smiled.“Y

    Jakeson’s povI finally appeared to the woman in her study as she was talking to a war general. Soon, the man bowed and left as I stood by the entrance. The queen then looked up,“Come in, come in,” she said as I entered. “Close the door.”I closed the door behind me, before she gestured to her seat.“So, I’ve gotten a report from my son, Kaelan, and he has told me a lot based on how his own mission had gone. Now, it had been part success and part failure, but at least we’ve gotten a lot of information. And with the rope that you’ve brought in, I believe that if we were to interrogate him, he would tell me a lot. Now, I could ask my son to interrogate him, but I know how brutal Kaelan can be, and the rogue is very fragile, and somehow knows you and Octava. I can’t ask Octava because emotions might carry her away. So, that’s why you’ve come in.”I nodded. “So, you want me to interrogate him?”“Yes,” she smiled. “Exactly. I want you to be the one to interrogate him, while the King and I
