❤️❤️ Finding The Thief (Part 13) ❤️❤️

King Leo Palace:

He left the traven for his kingdom. When he arrived home and came down from his horse-drawn medieval carriage, he met the guards running around in the compound and saw his uncle and went to meet him.

"What's happening?" he asked and when he moved closer, he was surprised when he saw some dried blood on his Uncle's lips.

"Son, a thief came into this compound and stole the kingdom Magic Water Bowl from my room." His Uncle, King Leo, replied to him. "And when I tried to stop him, he punched me," he added.

"What? Doesn't he know who you are?" Jor asked.

"He should still be at the palace because after he had punched me. He climbed out through my window and I didn't see him running towards the gate so he is still hiding in the Palace," King Leo said.

"Why would he steal the water bowl? What does he want to use it for? In fact what does the Water Bowl do?" Jor asked.

"The only person who could have gladly answered your question is your father, but he is no more. He knows everything about the Water Bowl and that was why he told me to protect it." King Leo replied to him.

"Which you failed to." Jor retorted out.

"I did not fail, didn't you hear me say the thief punched my face when I tried to stop him. I should be thankful he didn't touch my Mate."

"You know what Uncle, it has been a long sad day for me. We will talk about this tomorrow morning," Jor said and left for his room.

"Just be careful son, the thief might be hiding in your room." King Leo shouted after him.

Jor rolled his eyes and didn't reply back. He was sad of his fruitless effort to find A in the traven.

He entered his room which was being brightened up by candlelight, remembering his uncle's statement, he quickly scanned his room and found it empty. Going to his bathroom, he checked it was empty too. Removing his clothes until he was stark naked he was too tired to take a bath, Jor climbed his bed and slept off, dreaming of him and A. He couldn't wait to have her writhing underneath him.

Aurora Cave:

Aurora breathed out a relief once she was in her cave. Keeping the Water Bowl on the ground, she began to remove her dark clothes. It always made the job easy for her.

This was the easiest job she had done and hopefully the last she would do.

It was easy entering the Werecat Palace and entering Jor Uncle's room with her invisible spell which she made herself visible again once she was inside his room. She saw him and his mate sleeping and was careful to move around the room with the aid from the candles which lit up the room. But it didn't take her much time to spot it, right there at the left side of the bed, she saw the Water Bowl sitting comfortably on a mat made of wool, and the wool wasn't wet which surprised her. She had been careful to pick up the Water Bowl and was turning to leave when she sneezed loudly waking up the King.

It had hurt her when punched Jor Uncle and had quickly climbed out through his window before she hurt him further. Not in the mood to fight, she put on her invisible spell and walked out of the palace trying so hard not to laugh when she saw the guards running around, blocking every possible exit in the Palace. Once outside the Palace, she put off her invisibility and then teleported herself to her cave.

She couldn't wait to give Vivian the water bowl and collect her money.

Speaking of money, she went to where she kept her bag of money, on the floor under her bed and counted it. Almost two hundred bags of gold which is enough to buy her a new set of clothes, new boots, more food and to buy up a traven or open a new one.

She climbed her bed and slept off. This time, she didn't dream of her parents or brothers or her fallen kingdom. She dreamt of someone, a handsome man with rainbow hair and shiny golden eyes.

Heaven's Palace:

Heaven was seen laughing out as his best two trackers stood before him. He was sitting on his large throne.

"So you're telling me that we have a thief running loose and stealing from each kingdom?"

"Yes my King. All the guards we asked all describe the same thing which made us believe it is one person who is stealing from them," one of the trackers said to him.

"I don't give a damn about the other Kingdoms. The only thing I am interested in is if you had a lead on the Silver necklace which belongs to Princess Elena?" Heaven query.

"No my King, it was hard. We met King Lion and went to Princess Elena's room. We found no new scent in the room, my King, which made it hard for us to track down the thief. Whoever the thief was is very intelligent which brought us to this conclusion," the same tracker said.

"Since he had stolen from almost all the strongest kingdoms, his next stop will be here." the second tracker spoke. "I think he is gifted in hiding his scent because his scent wouldn't escape our nose."

"That's impossible and even if he does get inside my palace, I would know," he uttered, and with a wave of his hand. "You are dismissed. This is the first time you are reporting back without a clue so I will let this slide probably like you said, the thief might be gifted in hiding his scent so that no one can recognize or track him down." he added and watched as they left his throne room.

He was alone and breathed out. At least he tried to find the thief like he had promised Elena.

Pushing Elena out of his thoughts, his mind wanders off to the strange scent. He couldn't help but think who could be the bearer of the scent that nearly drives him crazy.
