Johan POV
I Know my fiance has been up to something. She always leaves the palace mysteriously and sneaks back.
One night, I caught her sneaking out and secretly followed her. She took the path to the west but I lost her before I could see where she was going exactly.
I didn't want to suspect her but with her knowing one of my biggest secrets, I could not help but feel anxious.
If she ever spills it to anybody,it will effect the plans Mason and I have made for years.
In two months time, we will be taking the big step to dethrone my uncle.
We could never allow anything to go wrong.
Mason reported to me today that he caught my fiance chatting with Prince Dillan. The guy hates my guts and although they didn't seem to understand each other, that did not lessen my worries.
So tonight, I watched her chambers carefully and just as expected, few minutes to midnight, she left disguised like a man.
I had Mason follow her and inform me anything she would be up to.
I was shocked when Mason mindlinked me that she was at Lord Callaso's estate.
Lord Callaso is my uncle's biggest supporter.
What could she be doing there? I could not help but ask.
It didn't make any sense why my fiance would be there.
" She is in the company of two other people and they seem to be sneaking around." Morgan reported again through the mindlink.
" Observe them and see what they are up to." I linked him before making my way to her chambers.
Whatever game she is playing is a dangerous one and I have to warm her.
Two hours later, I heard her jump through the window and into her room so I flicked on the lights.
Mason reported to me that they took away Lady Leticia from Lord Callaso's estate.
Everybody in this Kingdom knows that the scumbag abuses his wives but because he has the king's support, nobody dares question her.
" Where are you coming from?" I asked, my eyes trained on her face as I regarded her.
Sultana clutched her chest in fright. I could tell I scared her but that was the least of my concerns now.
I needed to know what she was up to.
" Where I come from is none of your damn business!" She shot back at me, annoyed.
In a flash of w second, I was in front of her, clutching her neck as I slammed her to the wall.
" I don't like it when someone defies me, Sultana. Don't test my patience." I murmured into her ears.
Her intoxicating scent of Jasmine mixed with lemons hit my nostrils and I fought the urge to inhale her scent even more; it was that good.
I have always tried my best to avoid her because she was a temptation to my darkness. She was like a siren, always charming me to her. I am sure she didn't Know the effect she had on me and I wanted it to remain that way.
I could not afford to have anything with her, not even a fling. I have my chosen mate, a Lady from a strong family who would help me in my cause.
A punch was sent flying to me, but I was fast enough to block it before I felt the most excruciating pain ever on my crotch.
My hands released her neck in an instant as I moved to clutch my crotch which was hurting like hell.
Damn that woman!
" Listen here, I don't like it when people snoop around my affairs nor do I appreciate being questioned in such a crude manner." Her voice was hard, no ounce of pity could be felt in them.
She started stripping, making me widen my eyes.
" Are you leaving or should I give you a show?" She asks without pausing in her actions.
Gritting my teeth, I walked out of her chambers limping.
I swear I heard her chuckle in amusement, making me even more furious.
I was sure to make her regret her actions one day.
I was woken up the following morning by the sound of someone shouting my fiance's name.
I navigated my wheelchair to the living room only to find Lord Callaso calling out Sultana's name.
" What's the matter Lord Callaso? Are you forgetting that this is my wing and I don't appreciate it when someone makes noise?" I asked, my voice cold.
I could guess why the man was here so early in the morning.
" My apologies Prince Johan but I need your fiance to tell me the whereabouts of my wife." The guy replied, not a hint of remorse in his words.
" Why does Lord Callaso think that his wife is in my possession?" My fiance's voice sounded as she took her sweet time down the stairs.
" Last night someone broke into my house and took away my wife after knocking me Unconscious." He replied, eyeing Sultana with pure rage.
"So what does that have to do with me?" Sultana asked innocently. I have to give it to her, her acting skills are top-notch.
"It's you Lady Sultana. You are the one who took her away." Lord Callaso seemed sure of his words.
" I think you are mistaken, Lord Callaso. One, I am straight and have no interest in women and two, I spend the whole night in the palace. I did not step outside the walls of this palace so I suggest you look for your wife somewhere else." Sultana replied seriously.
Her words made me chuckle and Lord Callaso fumed in anger.
" How do I know you did not leave the estate?" Lord Callaso asked, his eyes narrowing at her.
" My fiance spent the whole night taking care of me because I was feeling sick. She never left my side until dawn so she could not possibly be the one who took your wife."
My words seemed to have shaken Lord Callaso.
Turning to my fiance, I winked at her but she rolled her eyes at me.
" What is happening here?"
