❤️❤️ Finding The Thief (Part 9) ❤️❤️
The door that leads to the bathroom she was in opened and her sister walked in with her handmaid who was behind her.
Vivian stopped what she was doing and frowned a bit as she stood up to her feet.
"Greetings to you my Queen," Vivian said tiredly as she forced herself to add 'queen'. She managed to bow before her sister.
"Leave us alone," the Queen said to her handmaid who bowed with her head and left the bathroom. The queen blew air in the bathroom which prevents anyone from hearing her conversation with her sister. She was a beautiful Elf with her curly dark hair and brown eyes. Her hair was packed in a ponytail and her pointy elf ears was pierced and decorated with golden earrings. "Where have you been dear sister?" she asked.
"Outside the palace Juliet,"
"Doing what?"
"None of your business," grunted lowly.
Closing the distance between them, Juliet forcefully dragged Vivian by her hair and brought her face closer to hers.
"I know what you are doing Vivian, do not take me for a fool." Juliet bellowed in anger. "There is no cure for you. The only way to cure yourself and bring back your youthfulness is my black blood, unfortunately for you, the only way to change my red blood which is flowing through my veins is when I die which is very, very, impossible. And you and I know that I am not just an ordinary Elf Queen." Juliet chuckled darkly.
"You took what is rightfully mine and made me like this Juliet, I bet you one day the truth shall be exposed and I shall take back what you stole from me," Vivian assured her.
"And like I told you, there is nothing, I mean no one who would revise my spell I placed on you. I like the seat I am sitting in right now. My husband doesn't remember you again. In fact I made sure he doesn't even mention your name. You are old and will soon die. Don't worry I will make sure he attends your funeral and we will shed a few tears for you," Juliet taunted her and smiled in satisfaction when she heard the whimper coming from her sister. She knew her words had cut right deep into her heart. "Let me leave you to your work."
"Juliet what wrong have I ever done to you to deserve this punishment? In terms of powers, I am not as strong as you and I have never competed with you before. We were close before so what went wrong with you and me?" Vivian asked.
"You know what went wrong. I was betrothed to Willow before you came into the picture, remember? You just came back from your vacation from round the Supernatural Kingdoms and when he set his eyes on you, he left me for you and you agreed to marry him stabbing me in my back," Juliet said. "You forced my hands Vivian so I decided to do something about it. It's either you or Willow and I chose you." she added without feeling remorseful for what she did.
"But you know how I rejected him countless of times, even in your presence I had fought with him but Willow is strong headed and wouldn't listen to me no matter how hard I tried to push him away from me. You know I have no hand in this, why punish me for what I didn't do? Why not punish him?"
"Punish him? Did you say punish him? Let me remind you Vivian, we could have gotten married if you didn't come back. I cannot punish him when the one who needs to feel my anger and fury is you. And guess what, we are expecting a child soon and you won't live that long to see our beautiful child." Juliet mocked and left the bathroom with a satisfied smile and went to sit on the bed in her room. "Remove my boots and clean my legs." She ordered her handmaid who quickly did as she was told.

Fairy Kingdom:
Princess Elena Room:
Princess Elena quietly sneaked back into her room, she had flown in through her room window which she had left unlocked when she visited the Wolf Kingdom. She quickly took a cloth from her wardrobe and entered her bathroom to take her bath. When she had woken up in Heaven palace and not died, she felt proud of herself. She didn't die of Heaven brutal s.x. Sarah, the maid that was attending to her, had dressed her up with a different cloth; probably from one of his dead partners. That thought alone irks her and she couldn't wait to get back home and freshen up.
"Where is Heaven?" she asked Sarah.
"He said to tell you, he has start looking into it." Sarah replied which made Princess Elena smile.
"I have to start going," Princess Elena said. Even though she was sore and tired that won't stop her from going home tonight. By now her father must have known about her disappearance and must be searching every nook and cranny in his Kingdom for her.
"You should stay until the sun is out, my lady, before leaving."
"No, I can't stay here. I didn't inform my father about my whereabouts and he will be worried sick to know where I am," Princess Elena said with a tired smile. Her fairy wings sprouted out from her back. "Thanks for taking care of me while I was unconscious."
Sarah smiled and bowed down a little before her.
"Tell Heaven that I have left and I will visit him in two days time," Princess Elena said and flew out of the room, flying out of the palace and flying towards her father's Kingdom.
Once she had freshened up, she opened the door of her bathroom and was a little surprised when she saw her father glaring at her.
Pretending not to know why he was angry. "What is it father and why are you glaring at me, what did I do this time around?" she asked as she walked up to meet her father. She was lucky to be wearing her tunic dress which was long enough to cover Heaven's cut on her body.
"Don't pretend as if you don't know why I am glaring at you. Where have you been since morning? Where did you go today?"
"How did you know I was back?" Princess Elena asked.
"Why wouldn't I know when you are back? Am I not your father? I have been checking your room every hour and when I came into your room a few minutes ago, I heard running water from the bathroom." King Lion answered. "I have answered yours, now you answer mine. Where did you go?"
"Nowhere actually, I went to meet Heaven,"
"Heaven? Is it the one I know?" King Lion asked with his eyes round like sauce.
"Yes father. I told him about the thief and he assured me he will find him. So I will be visiting him in two days to see if he has caught the thief." Princess Elena explained.
"And he accepted?"
"Yes father."
"In exchange of what?"
"In exchange for my body father, are you a kid not to know what Heaven wants from a lady?" Princess Elena told her father the truth, not beating around the bush.
"You slept with him and you didn't die?" King Lion asked his daughter in shock. Touching her face gently.
"Yes father as you can see with your eyes I am breathing. I slept with Heaven," Princess Elena said and then grinned like a Cheshire cat. "It seems the royal blood that flows in me was strong enough to keep me alive."
"Yes!" King Lion shouted in happiness, throwing his arms up in the air and then started laughing to the surprise of his daughter.
"Why are you laughing father? Shouldn't you be yelling at me for going to the wolf Kingdom?"
"No, this is good news Elena. Are you sure you slept with Heaven?"
"Yes father, I did. Why are you so happy?"
"I am happy because I am seeing you as the Queen of the supernatural. You shouldn't allow this opportunity to pass you by. You have to seduce Heaven to sleep with you again."
"And why is that father? The one I did with him was bloody hell. He is a beast father, I can't go through such pain again."
"Just once Elena."
"Why?"
"For you to get pregnant for him. You are going to pin him down to marry you."
"Father, I am not the only woman Heaven is sleeping with," Princess Elena reminded her father.
"But you will be the only woman he will sleep with the second time."
