WHO IS LYING?

17th of August.

"Hello" Idar picked up the line, it has been long since we spoke and I have been wanting to speak to her about all the things that have happened to me so far.

"Idar, how are you doing?" I was in such a good mood already, her voice already ligtned my mood up.

"I am good, how is your honeymoon going? How is everything going?" She did not hesitate to ask.

"Oh I've missed you, all of you guys and everything is going fine apart from some weird things that happened" i was ready to spill the teas to Idar as long as she asks.

"Well I'm sure it's not that and as long as it's not something paranormal happening princess don't stress you'll be fine" Idar encouraged me, was she being serious? but what does anyone has to do with my happiness?

"Yeah sure, how is gran gran's health?"

"She is doing great, although she has been wanting to speak to you almost every time, I do remind her that you are going to be back, she seems to miss you a lot" this was not the type of reaction I need from her, besides this was not the first time i left ofuland for s while, when I was completing my doctorate degree I did not spend anytime or so with her so I wonder why she feels this way now.

"What are the odds, there is something I can't seem to get of my chest and I want you to dig deeper into it for me" it was about this girl, I really need to know if she is telling the truth, I just can't believe it it seems to sudden and she also looks like she is hiding something from me.

"Yes princess what is it?" Idar said.

"I met this girl called dorathy, she is from ofuland I want you to help me do a background check on her" it wasn't going to be easy but I am sure the palace aid can do a good job especially when if comes to investigating.

"No surname? How in earth are we going to find her?" Idar remarked.

"Well I don't know, I don't want to raise anyone's suspicion that's all" it was true, anything I said to her would make her very active and I don't want her to actively try to cover her tracks it would make it harder to find her.

"How about mom and dad? How are they doing?" Even though I have sworn to not speak to them again, I can't help but check up on them at least, they are still my family and I do care about them as humans at least.

"Oh the Queen is doing great ma, I heard her pregnancy is progressing fine" I couldn't stomach it, I did not want the baby to die because he has nothing to do with this, but I can not believe she is bringing another human into this, she is already s terrible mother nothing is going to change that so I wonder why she wants a son after all these years.

"That's good, I would be leaving now to go get my breakfast, please don't forgot to do what I asked for" i reminded her as I hanged up the phone.

"Old oyo empire" I remarked as I walked down stairs, I wonder what winters family did in the olden days, I was more curious about his family's book than I was of mine, there was something about it that sparked my interest and I wanted to know why.

Is the old oyo empire same with new oya kingdom? Or is it former ofuland? I have heard of witches and wizards too from our ancient history but they all seemed far fetched than real, it felt like tales that never happened, did it?

"Good morning darling, what took you so long" winter greeted as I walked into the room.

"Morning my love, I was in a call with Idar" I responded as I sat down to eat my breakfast.

"Everything at home is good?" He asked.

"Yes" I responded as I began to have my breakfast, I must say this was better than a typical breakfast at the palace, it was just the both of us and there was peace, no drama no nothing.

"How are you enjoying the Tamaje" I wonder why he was asking me now, we have bearly spent a weak here and i already feel uneasy.

"Well it sure is a break from the busy life I had back home" I was bored coupled with the fact that we had not left the house to go have fun and spend time together with my husband since we got here, it was from one incident to the other and if nothing was happening Winter was busy working.

"Well I have good news for you then?" Is he going to take me out? Are we going site seeing?.

"What is it?" My eyes lit up, as a huge smile began to form on my face.

"We would be going to Okene after our honeymoon" my smile instantly faded, although our honeymoon was going to be two weeks and we had already spent one doing absolutely nothing, I thought his suprise was going to make up for that.

"Oh sure"

"You don't seem excited" winter said as he noticed the facial expression I was making, I mean I get to go to the library and dig whatever history I am looking for but still, that doesn't sound fun at all.

"It's not that I just thought it was something else you planned" I said as I faked a smile on my face.

"Okay, you know I have been occupied with work lately and it has been taking a hug chunk of our time" he wasn't wrong about that.

"Yeah I understand, work must go on" i said in a low tone.

"I promise one of these days, I'll take you out" well I think I should take myself out, maybe Daniella could show me around.

"Hello" I picked up my phone as it was Idar calling, did something bad happen?

"Sorry for the disturbance, I saw a missing person poster on a girl dorathy Haruna as they were digging, I said I should inform you" missing person? All the way from ofuland?

"Send me the picture on it, can you find out more about her please" something wasn't adding up here, but she did say she was lost though.

But how can a missing person travel a continent over? What's going on?
