The Alpha's Human Luna
Chapter 127 - Crime In The Palace
Baby's POV
"Don't tell me you still haven't found the culprit!" I yell as my eyes glowed red out of anger and frustration.
I have stayed longer than I expected and I need to get back to Nancy and our children, I promise her I wasn't going to stay for long but I can't leave without solving these pending issues.
A few days ago some rogues intruded on our pack land, knowing how ruthless rogues are we need to find them before they think of launching a surprise attack on us.
The last time I wasn't around when the pack was attacked, the pack suffered a great deal, it took a lot of work to nurture it back now I want to see who dares to attack my pack again.
"I'm sorry your highness we have searched every breadth and length of this land but they are nowhere to be found, there is no stone left unturned," the beta responded.
"Keep looking," I mumble releasing my anger as I unfolded my fist.
I step down from my chair trying to figure out what I was missing.
Will someone dare play hide and seek with me? I can smell a rogue from miles away now how come they are not yet been found? Unless... I mumbled.
"Unless someone wants to keep you here for some reason," Leo said mind linking with me, I glare at him angrily.
"Relax I know you are trying to block me but hear me out, what if someone just wants you to stay here, no one will dare to attack the pack under your watch, unless they are stupid and I'm yet to see a stupid rogue," Leo mind link again, he has a point but who will dare?
"Could Nancy be in trouble?" Justin's mind links with mine.
"All of you leave us!" I said allowing everyone in the room to read my mind.
They all strode out of the room leaving Leo, Justin, and me.
"You think Nancy is in trouble?" I asked but I still can't see the point in keeping me here.
Nancy is in the palace, the safest place she could ever be, and besides, she is not someone that is weak and can't defend herself like before.
"Or maybe someone wants to keep you out of it," Justin mumbled, that will make sense the moon goddess can always do anything to interfere in our lives.
I still can't wrap my head around it, there are loopholes that just don't add up.
"How about I go over to see what is happening there while you stay here and monitor everything," Leo suggested, I know he is also looking for an excuse to see Nancy, he has never denied his feelings for her in front of me, the only one who dares to love the Alpha's Luna and admit it, Nancy is always protective of him.
I can't leave until I'm sure what is going on, I will have to agree for him to check on Nancy.
"Fine," I said reluctantly.
"I will set off now, I will give her flowers on your behalf," he grumble as I wish I could take my words back.
"You sure about this?" Justin asks as I question myself the same thing.
Nancy's POV
Days flew by so quickly and each day Nico get to win everyone's over with his soft and pretentious face, yet I'm unable to do anything about it, Zenab has to put up with him everywhere, he even dares attend court meetings.
Grandma has been locked up in her room for days, now I also have Baby to worry about, "My princess the crown prince calls for your audience," the maid informed, "Thank you, you may leave," I said lifting up my hand and swapping it.
Why will Zenab call for me when he loves coming to my room to talk? or something happened?
Many things wobble in my head as I hurriedly left to the grand hall, to my surprise I met the royal physician and the three princesses, Shelly, Molina, and Sharon standing next to each other in that order.
"Great? Royal princess, you are here?" Zenab mumbles as the heavy metal door was closed behind me.
"What is going on?" I asked staring at Zenab as everyone else in the room bow's their heads.
"Tell her," he ordered the physician to speak, "My princess, both the princesses lost their babies," the physician said in a low tone fixing her gaze on the ground, "What!" I yell in shock, "How is that even possible?" I asked with my eyes wide open as Shelly and Molina cried.
"My princess a mysterious herb was added to their meals," she explained, "What are you trying to tell me? the two crown princesses were poison right here in the palace? call the royal cook right now!" I scowl as Zenab looks disturbed, he is not worried about himself but for grandma, I could see that in his eyes.
Now that the tribe leader wants to find a wife for Nico they are gradually accepting him. who will dare to kill a royal baby?
The royal cook was brought to the hall immediately, "Do you know what offense it is to kill an heir?" I growl as the old lady goes on her knees and cries out, "My princess, the food was tasted before taking to the princesses, I made sure of it and personally serve it," she announced,
"You mean to say they poisoned themselves?" I muttered as the old cries the more.
"No my princess I wouldn't dare," she whimpers.
I then turn around to face Zenab and back to the princesses then back to Zenab.
"If the poison is not from the royal kitchen then?" I pout looking at Zenab.
"My princess you must serve us justice, my poor baby," Princess Shelly cries holding her belly. I told Zenab about this, one woman is a lot to handle much less three at once and now he favors one above the rest.
Even though they didn't mention names we all know who they are trying to pin the blame on, princess Sharon, Zenab's favorite.
"Who do you think will do this?" I asked making room for them to voice out, "They claimed it was Princess Sharon, in order not to be bais I called you here to investigate this matter," Zenab said with deep pain in his heart, too much happening at the same time.
"I swear on my life, I have no idea of what they are talking about, I admit I come from the tribe that masters in herbs, and it's also true I'm not pregnant like the rest of them but I won't dare hurt the crown prince in this manner, believe me my prince," she cried turning her gaze on Zenab as Zenab turns his head to the other side in order not to look at her.
As a woman I understand all of them, losing a child is something no mother will wish to happen to any other mother, and also for your beloved not to trust you also hurts like shit, she needed the support of Zenab but Sharon didn't get it and that hurt more than the crime she is being accused of.
"What was the last thing you ate before the incident?" I asked princess Shelly, "a piece of cake," she replied, "and you princess Molina?" I said turning to face her, "I also took a piece of cake," she replied.
"Okay, so who bake the cake?" I mumbled looking at the cook, "My princess, the desert for today was strawberry smoothy and not cake," the cook answered as her voice cracks.
"Now the question is where did the cake come from?" I said with a smile as things were getting interesting, why do I have the feeling this was all a huge plan to blame princess Sharon?
Sharon stood there as her hand quivered, and I got another feeling she is pregnant now everything makes sense, these two bitches want to cause more trouble when we have a lot on our plates already.
I love dealing with bitches like these two, I'm going to have fun while they spill the beans up themselves.
"Maid!" I yelled as the two of them walks in, "Yes my princess," they replied with a bow.
"Take princess Sharon to her chamber now, and make sure she doesn't stay alone, if anything happens to her, I will have your heads," I growl then let out a smile as Zenab looks at me confused.
"Yes my princess," they replied sharply, Princess Sharon was in a daze looking at her she didn't care what will happen next, Zenab has hurt her already for not trusting her, poor thing she loves crazily like me, a possessive freak I must say well that's just by the way.
I held her hand when she walk past me walking like a zombie and whispered in her ears, "Take care of your health else you will have it from me." she stared at me confused, "Go on now," I mumble with a smile.
"The two of you can go," I said as I dismiss the royal cook and the physician, they nod as they exist the room, now it was left with the four of us, I hope I'm wrong and I hope it Nico who is behind this,
"Nancy, how are you going to handle the situation?" Zenab whispers in my ears, yes he has a point I let the suspect go, and the key witnesses as well what will I get from the victims? I tap his shoulder and asked him to relax and just watch.
"I think I know the suspect,"
"Who?"
"Don't tell me you still haven't found the culprit!" I yell as my eyes glowed red out of anger and frustration.
I have stayed longer than I expected and I need to get back to Nancy and our children, I promise her I wasn't going to stay for long but I can't leave without solving these pending issues.
