Chapter 107

Later in the evening, we had dinner just outside the Castle. It was like a banquet. Everyone was busy eating, I only the other hand wasn't feeling myself. In fact I've been feeling weird lately. I decided to push everything under the rug.

King Benjamin was giving a speech. "Ladies and gentlemen. I'm honored you all accepted the invitation to my son's wedding. It has been a hell of a ride trying to find my son a wife and he finally chose Harriet" King Benjamin said. Honestly the nigga went on and on about a lot of things.

I began to feel this sudden anger rising inside of me. My necklace began to glow this weird black light. I held the necklace so no one would notice. I wonder what has happened to little Benjamin. Is he in danger?.

I began to hear screams and shout. It's so loud that I couldn't handle it. I placed both my hand on my ears, I shut my eyes tight. "Shut up!!" I said trying to silence the voice. "Is everything alright with her?" Queen Ella asked. "F*ck seriously? Now?" Damien asked.

"Leave me alone.... Go away.... Get away from me" I said. Diamond rushed to me. "Make it stop" I screamed. "It hasn't even been up to three days" Silver said. "Please make it stop... Please" I said. I tried to numb the pain but I couldn't, then I saw someone in my head.

It was Ixia. "Lilith.... I'm coming for youuuu" Ixia said. "Don't do this.... It's me you want. He had nothing to do with this... Don't make him suffer what he knows nothing about" I said. "Hahaha... Too late" Ixia said. She grabbed Benjamin by the hands and disappeared.

"Nooooo" I yelled. Someone hugged me tight. "It's alright... Everything would be fine" Diamond said. "She has him.... She's back.... She's coming for me... I'm next" Was all I could say. I blacked out.

I had this dream, I saw Benjamin in the same room Ixia once put me. Benjamin was laying down on the ground, he seemed unconscious. "Look at what you've done.... You're making this poor boy surfer because of your incompetence" Ixia said.

"Don't do this.... Please" I said. "You should have thought about that before you banished me" Ixia said. "I'd do anything" I said. "Come to me if you want the boy to live" Ixia said. I woke up, I saw Diamond sitting beside me. "Lilith are you alright?" Diamond asked.

"How long have I been asleep?" I asked. "Three days" She replied. I massaged my head with my palm. "Lilith there's something you need to know" Diamond said. "What is it?" I asked. "Come to the throne room" Diamond said.

I didn't have the strength but I went to the Throne room with her. I saw King Asmodeus in the throne room with Miss Margret, Taytum and Vida standing by his side. "What's going on?" I asked. "It's Benjamin... I think he has been kidnapped" Silver said.

"Where was he last seen?" Damien asked. "I didn't see him all day.... He has been missing for three days" Taytum said. "You claimed to care for the boy but you pretended to be hibernating for the past three days" Ivy said. "That's enough" Sylvester said.

"Don't blame me for being honest" Ivy said. I know Ixia has him, I can't tell anyone about this, Not even Diamond. "Wait isn't she connected to the boy some how? Why can't she try to locate him?" Vida asked. Everyone looks at me.

"Do you want to give it a try?" Diamond asked. "Are you sure it's a good idea? I mean she just woke up" Silver said. "I'd give it a try, what do I have to do?" I asked. "You have to focus, connect your energy don't forget you share the same energy with him" Diamond said.

I closed my eyes and I connected my energy. All I could see is Benjamin being scared and crying. I saw the same rotten body from before, it's still there. "Tic tok Lilith.... You're time is running out" Ixia said. I saw her with a knife close to Benjamin's neck. "Nooooo" I said.

I got disconnected and the force sent me flying to the other side of the room, I hit my head pretty hard against the wall. People ran to me. "Lilith are you alright?" Silver asked. "Yeah" I said. "What did you see?" King Asmodeus asked in concern. I looked at everyone, I can't possibly tell them the truth.

"I saw a lot of weird things, I couldn't quite see the face of the person but I saw Benjamin" I said. "So he's alive?" King Asmodeus asked. "Yes" I said. Diamond helped me to my feet. "Was that all you saw?" Queen Ella asked. "Yes... I couldn't quite see much" I said.

"Why did you scream?" Damien asked. "I... I saw something that was scary" I said. "Hmm.... So this is a case of kidnapping after all" Silver said. "Who's coming for you?" Diamond asked. "Huh?" I pretended not to hear her. "You said she's back and she's coming for you... What did you mean?" Diamond asked.

"I... I... don't remember saying anything" I said. "Asmodeus get some rest.. We'd start the search in the morning" Damien said. Everyone one left, I couldn't shake the thought of losing Benjamin. "Lilith" Diamond called from behind me. "Yes" I replied as I looked at her.

"A word please" She said. "Sure" I replied. "In private" She said. I looked around for a while. "We're the only ones here" I said. Diamond grabbed my hand, she pulled me into her room and locked the door. "What's the problem?" I asked. "You're lying to me" She said.

"What do you mean" I asked. "The fact that you don't remember.... I don't buy it. You saw something Lilith" Diamond said. "I didn't see anything. If I was lying my necklace would have confirmed it" I said. "Benjamin's in danger that's why the necklace isn't working properly.... I'm waiting you" Diamond said.

I left her room. I feel bad for lying to her but I don't have a choice. I have to do this on my own, I don't want anyone to get involved in my mess. I plan to meet Ixia tonight, I think I'd sneak out tonight when everyone has gone to bed. I went to my room to make preparation.

I heard a knock on the door, I made my way to the door. I was surprised to see Silver. "Hey" I said awkwardly. "How're you feeling?" He asked. "I'm doing great" I said. He let out a sigh.

"You don't have to lie... I know what you're up to" Silver said. My heart skipped a bit. Did he find out? How did he find out?. "What.... What do you mean?" I asked. "You pretend to be fine when you're not" He said. Oh... What a relief he didn't find out.

"I try my best not to think about you know? I'm close to the boy.... Knowing that he's not here... It's breaks my heart" I said. "It's okay... We'd find him. We would start the search tomorrow" Silver said. "I hope we find him" I said. "Don't worry we will... You need to get some rest" Silver said.

"Very well then good night" I said. "Good night" Silver replied. I shut the door, I took a deep breath. I thought he found out... Well thank God I attended drama class back in high school. Now all I have to do is find Ixia. How hard can it be?
