Chapter 182



Having a little bit of doubt in her mind, she ventured deeper until she was standing in the middle of the room. Her gaze carefully swept through every angle of the room in case something was off, but there was nothing that raised her alarm.

How strange, there was practically nothing here, so why did the human maid leave so hastily?

“Or could it be she’s going to meet someone in secret?”

Folding her arms to speculate more on it, her sensitive ears twitched when she heard footsteps behind her and without wasting time, she spun around to see who had entered, only to come face to face with Roshan who stood at the threshold, staring at her with an aporetic look, obviously not expecting to find her here.

“Roseline?”

Her eyes widened at the sight of his highness in Gemma’s room, he looked dressed for tonight, and as always he left her breath-taking by his appearance. Unfortunately, she wasn’t giving enough time to reminisce on his enchanting appearance based on the odd looks he was giving her.

It made her feel like she had done something bad that she herself wasn’t aware of. Unable to deal with his taunting gaze, she decided to break the silence by clearing her throat and smiling his way.

“Your highness..” She bowed slightly before raising her head up, only to see the demon was making his way into the chamber, and when he kept taking further steps towards her, she involuntarily took one step back.

.....

“You’re..... you’re here?” She asked, and only then did Roshan halt in his steps, but his gaze still held that of Roseline who was unsure of why he was giving her such suspicious stares.

“Why are you here?” He retraced the question back at her, but he wasn’t asking in the slightest, he sounded demanding that it made Rose gasp due to the coldness of his tone. From his expression, it was obvious that he wasn’t in a good mood and she didn’t dare add more fuel to the fire.

“I.....”

Before she could respond, Becca also stepped into the room with Azazel following behind, but to her surprise, there was no sight of Anna after she walked in, and her presence had interrupted the conversation between Roshan and Roseline.

Seeing the maid who came to call him earlier, Roshan’s attention was instantly diverted and the maiden’s face paled in the absence of Anna.

“Where is she?” Roshan asked, turning around to look at Becca who was taken aback by Anna’s absence.

“She was here.” She pointed at the spot where Roseline was standing, “I swear to you we were both standing here when she told me to send for you, I wouldn’t lie to his highness about something like this.” She truthfully said with her gaze fixed to the ground.

‘What’s happening? Where is Anna?’ she inwardly panicked in her head.

Roseline, who listened to Becca speak the truth, instantly felt she had landed herself in big trouble for coming in here, cause if Anna isn’t here, then it was certain that everyone would blame her for Anna’s disappearance now, considering the fact she never really liked Anna.

As though she had sensed it, she could feel the ripple in Roshan as his eyes turned icy cold.

“What are you doing here?”

“I promise you I have nothing to do with this.” She honestly said to Roshan who was taking another step towards her, and she took one back, as though fearing he might crush her in pieces if he manages to get his hands on her.

His aura at the moment was toxic, and her heart drummed in fear as an apprehensive look spread across her face.

“We have even bigger problems.” Azazel stepped in at the nick of time, interrupting Roshan who paused in his steps once again.

“Gemma’s missing.” He critically informed, the alarm and the seriousness in his tone made Roshan turn around to look at him, even Roseline was caught off guard by the news as her eyes involuntarily widened.

“How’s that even....”

“Who is missing?” Came the unanticipated voice of someone, a voice that sounded familiar and a voice that nobody was expecting to hear at such a situation like this.

Turning their heads in the direction of the door, Levi stood there, staring blankly at the commotion happening in his sister’s room. He just got back since tonight was the event he didn’t plan on missing, he made sure that he’d make it tonight but why was everyone up here when the event was happening downstairs.

“Enzo!” Roshan called immediately, and within a few minutes of waiting, Lorenzo quickly walked into the room, bowing his head before Roshan who had summoned his presence.

“Your highness.”

“I need you to conduct a thorough search around the palace and outside the palace, see if you can find Gemma or Anna anywhere!”

“Yes, your highness.” After registering Roshan’s command, he exited the room to inform the rest about it so they could split up and find the two missing people.

“I want to see the guard in charge of the main gate, I need a list of who has entered and exited the building before Gemma’s disappearance, as well as Anna’s!”

Becca nodded in affirmation before leaving as well to go get the guard. Levi who watched the commotion finally walked in. He still wasn’t sure of what was going on but if his ears heard right then, he heard Roshan say something about his sister.

“What’s happening?” He raised his voice a bit, “where’s my sister??? What disappearance is everyone talking about? Who disappeared??”

“Levi.” Azazel placed a hand on his shoulder to stop him from panicking, signifying with his eyes that he should calm down.

“We’ll find her.” He assured him, “none of us is aware of what’s happening and you need to remain calm if you plan on helping us settle this.”

“But....”

While Azazel was dealing with Levi’s quick trauma, Roshan had his gaze on Roseline who tensed up when he looked at her. She immediately shook her head, signifying she really had nothing to do with this, but Roshan just smiled, a very plain sardonic smile that sent Roseline’s heart hanging at her throat.

“If I don’t find Anna or Gemma in the next one hour, I’m coming for you.”

With that little threat resting in her brain and the deepest parts of her system, Roshan exited the room, followed by Azazel and Levi who appeared worried about their sudden disappearance.

After they left, Roseline recovered from the fright Roshan had instilled in her and she knew he wasn’t joking when he said he’d come for her. He was acting all normal but she wasn’t blind to the madness dancing in his eyes when he uttered those words to her.

He looked ready to commit murder as long as it brought Gemma and Anna back.

“How did I end up being centered in all of this?” She paced back and forth in the room, and when she was starting to think about leaving the room before any other suspicion fell on her, her eyes instantly caught sight of the open book that rested close to the candles and she halted.

Weirdly, she was pushed into taking a look at the book before she left. Picking it up, there were a few words scribbled down on it, almost like a letter and when she was done reading, her eyes widened and she gasped.

“Should I show this to his highness?”
