Chapter 88 : She called you a boy toy.

" How could you let him out of you're sight "? Bonsi trembled, taking a step back as Axis raised his voice " I'm s. sorry. I don't know how to explain it ". Axis' eyes glowed even brighter as he took a step towards her " If anything happens to my son, You're...."

Axis didn't get to complete his statement as Luscious pulled him backwards, laughing as he rubbed his chest. Though Axis was angry, even in his suppressed rage, it wouldn't do anyone any good if he actually blew, " Now now Demon Lord, let's not say and or do anything we might regret ".

Fay suddenly swopped down, transforming from a bat to her human form, landing on the soft grass. They were presently in the garden, hoping to find him hear since they couldn't find him in the banquet hall " He's nowhere within the palace walls ".

Axis could only sigh as he rubbed his temples, " He's a five year old half demon where could he have possibly gotten to "? There was a sudden gust of wind and Liam appeared holding his suit jacket over his shoulder, " Nowhere to be found in the capital city which means he's still somewhere in the palace ".

Axis had no idea what he was doing here but he was happy for the help then he started hearing loud whispers " Liam, Liam where are you "? It was quiet for a while but went on, louder this time " Get you're ass out here, I know you can here me "!

All eyes turned to Liam who only sighed, " I'll be right back ". He didn't get too far when he yelled back " Shut the hell up, we've got a problem ". Nectar appeared and was met with confused worried stares.

" Is something wrong "? They didn't answer but Liam briefed her, " Prince Archie is missing "? Nectar frowned, " No he's not. He's...". Bonsi suddenly cut her off, " I'd appreciate it if you'd leave, you mocking me isn't helping at all, your majesty ".

Nectar only rolled her eyes, walking towards Axis who was sitting on a stone bench, " You should teach your wife some manners, at least pretend to be friendly. But I won't let you suffer from worry ".

The atmosphere was tense, everyone getting annoyed when Liam took off the coat. They saw Archie sleeping peaceful in Nectar's embrace, completely unharmed. She shoved him into Axis arms and flipped her hair, glaring at Bonsi " If you don't wish to be seen as a useless mother, then prove me otherwise ".

Nectar didn't say anything and simply walked away not looking back, she raised her hand and waved to them " I hope you enjoy the rest of you're night ".

Axis poked Archie's cheek and watched the boy frown as he flicked it away and opened his eyes. He seemed surprised at the red clothes he was lying on [ Where are the big soft pillows? ] as he stared at his father's chest. He looked around at all the relieved faces but only frowned some more " Where's Sister Qidu "?

Axis raised an eyebrow " Sister who "? Archie sighed, " The empress father, where is she "? Axis shrugged, " She just left ". Archie pouted slightly, " I wanted to hear the rest of the story but I fell asleep ".

Axis felt his mouth twitch as he pulled Archie's nose, " Look at you, listening to stories and sleeping while I'm here worried about you ". Archie made a silly face as he hugged him " The empress saved me, we should thank her ". Axis sighed, ruffling his hair " We should do that right now ".

Nectar yawned as she rubbed her hand on some white shrubs, " Don't you think it's time we went back. I'm tired ". Liam only shrugged, " I guess, you've had quite the night already ". Nectar smiled, holding unto his arm " That's why you're the best Millie. Always so wise and patient ".

Liam rolled his eyes, face palming her " I said we can go home, stop lying through you're teeth ". Nectar puffed her cheeks, " I was being honest. Humph.....it's not your fault ". Liam laughed, patting her hand " You never even told me how you hurt your knuckles ".

Nectar felt the hair on the back of her neck stand [ A diversion. I need a diversion ] As if on cue, she saw Kancor [ He always appears when I cry for help. I wonder if it'd work if I asked for money ] She smiled and waved with the other hand " Didn't think I'd see you so soon Prince KC ".

Kancor only laughed, " I thought you wouldn't use titles ". Nectar only shrugged, " You have someone with you, might as well save you some face ". Kancor frowned, " There's no one here ". Nectar. pointed at the woman with red hair that seemed to be following him. Nectar only yawned and waved, " I'll see you two another time ".

" Kancor, you can't just walk out on me ", Caitlin gasped as she held up her gold sequin dress that morphed into a grey color forming a small circle around her feet. Kancor only sighed, rubbing his neck " You talk too much, it was beginning to irritate me ".

Caitlin frowned slightly, watching Nectar's fading figure " Isn't she the one you danced with "? Kancor nodded, " Yeah, but I thought we were looking for your brother ". Caitlin nodded, still staring at Nectar's back view, " I'll go say hi. It won't take much time. Just a few questions ".

Kancor frowned, " What's that supposed to mean "? Caitlin laughed, her golden eyes glowing " She's seems like any other noble ". [ Just tell her to leave my husband alone ] Kancor didn't know what happened but Caitlin was already walking after Nectar.

" Don't do anything you'll regret. It was a dance, it meant nothing ". Caitlin nodded, glancing at him with a cruel smile " I'm not that cruel, just giving a friendly reminder ". Kancor was unable to stop her as she yelled out, " Hey!! You, the one with a boy toy ".

Nectar turned around and pointed a finger at herself, " Me "? Caitlin nodded and Nectar put a gloved hand to her mouth pointing at Liam " She just called you a toy boy, isn't that a first "?

Liam's eye twitched as he swatted her finger away from his face " That's not funny ". Caitlin stomped her foot gaining their attention, " How dare you ignore me "? Nectar dug her ear and looked up at Liam " Do you think Athena would let us pack something for the kids "?

Caitlin flared as she watched them turn their backs on her, " I said don't ignore me ". A sudden wave of lava like air surged from her hands. Liam easily dissipated it but it managed to burn his palm. Nectar frowned, holding the hand " Are you alright Millie, does it hurt "?

Caitlin had a smug smile on her face as she put her hands on her hips, " You shouldn't have ignored me you slut ". Nectar laughed coldly, still holding Liam's blistering hand " Don't worry, you have my attention ".
