Most vulnerable (Book 2)

Chapter 5 - II

Ian's POV

I had to get at the top of this situation now.

Last time Emma was hiding things from me , it almost cost me her life.

I got Charles and Matilda to secretly watch and spy over her, read all her journals and diary and track her phone through dark net at all times.

The castle had fifty two of my agents in Spanish household that Emma has no clue about.

I can't be blamed for keeping an secret eye on her when I am absent so much from the scene and My fiancé is a self destructive Queen surrounded by enemies.

Charles reported me within an hour that gardener saw her stance changing , earlier this morning after seeing someone , we combed through the CCTV camera , he was speaking the truth , only the man knew the angles of the camera and the front of his face wasn't clearly visible.

A Chamber maid said that Emma looked shaken after reading a text message .

A mobile hacker said that she received two messages from maggi and Matilda but all there messages were deleted in all the three phones.

Maggi and Matilda were asked and were denying sending text messages to Emma.

It was later confirmed that there phones were hacked too and someone did it by masquerading there device as Maggie's and Matilda.

My love is in a lot of trouble, she is playing those hide and seek games again with me in spite of numerous warning to come clean.

Well two can play that game.
I will find out what's happening and be one step ahead of her.
I will teach her a lesson in trusting your partner .

Alternatively, Jullienne was searching into every person that could be a threat to Emma or was once a threat to Emma in last twenty or so years.

She found it.
Her Step father was missing from asylum. An influential lawyer got him out.

With that lead on my way, I go to check on the love if my life.

She apparently saw her step father who was once worked at an Telecom company. He was the perfect candidate to fix in the puzzle , Though we were yet to find some solid proof against him.

"What's happening Matilda ?" I asked as I was a teary eyed Emma , a glaring Matilda and a worried looking Maggie with a doctor in the room.

"Your Majesty refuses to take the injection, she is weak, we need to get it into her system Your Highness."

The Doctor broke the silence.

I quickly changed my expression, I can't have Emma doubting my intentions, right now.

"Hey Pooh bear, its okay its just a little sting. You are such a big brave girl." I told her kissing her head. That sad expression in her eyes just melt my heart for my poor baby , especially when she is sick and in pain.

"Fine, just hold me tightly," she whispered stammering and a broken voice.

That tells me how scared she is with the return of her cruel step dad. He confessed everything to me word by word, every nasty thing he did with my baby girl. I knew I should have killed him then and there.

That reminds me Dad has to know about this. Doesn't looks like I will be returning to Denmark for a while.

After everyone left room. Emma was very quiet , it is strange. I am not used to her silence.

"What happened bubba ?" I asked rubbing her burning forehead.

"Nothing" she said in a crow voice.

"I know you are hiding something, I suggest you come out with it , you will feel lighter and we can tackle it together Emma ."
I said warning her yet again and praying that she tells me, I want to be in her team and not against her.

"You already know the Alarick situation, what else do I tell you ?" She said looking away.

Truth. Tell Mr the truth Emma I thought.

"Fine. Do whatever you think is right , just try not to end up getting an anal canning from me.

Because you are still not above being my submissive. Trust is pivotal in Our relationship , you break my trust, I will break you. "

I saw goosebumps flourishing on her skin.

The meds seemed to have kicked in and her head starts bobbing to sleep on my chest.

Good thing she will be well rested before Neil and Kate arrive.

There is a long day ahead of us.
