Chapter 116
Aliah joined them.
"What's going on here?" Aliah asked.
"It was Leilah, she saw something like her picture but it was just her reflection." Alpha Lucas answered.
"Yeah, he is right, I guess I was just not seeing well plus the mirror reflection, let's just go home." Leilah said.
"Are you sure you don't want to grab some ice cream?" Alpha Lucas asked.
"No, I'm fine, thanks." Leilah answered.
"And thanks for all that you have been doing for me." She added.
He took her hand and she felt uncomfortable.
"It's nothing, you are my sister's best friend so you deserve everything good from me." Alpha Lucas said and Aliah pulled Leilah.
"Come with me." Aliah replied and pulled Alpha Lucas.
"For heaven’s sake can you stop acting like a psycho in love? Leilah came to this pack for peace of mind and if you continue to act like this, she will understand that you are in love with her and that will force her to leave this pack."
Aliah exclaimed.
"Why can't you just be happy for me Aliah? You are my sister, Leilah I'd your friend, I have never been in love and now that I love Leilah you can't be happy for me? I have been wishing only the best for you but you can't do same for me?" Alpha Lucas asked.
"That's not what am saying, I'm just saving you from getting a heart break, Leilah had already told me that she is in love with Alpha Jake, so tell me, how will she love you when her heart belongs to Alpha Jake, believe me, I will be the happiest sister in the world to see you and Leilah work your relationship but that can't just happen, just give up okay, I'm sure the right one will come for you."
Aliah answered.
"Fine, let's just go." Alpha Lucas said.
"Bro, I love you and I wish the best for you; I have been proud of you and please don't feel like I hate you, I love you so much you are my blood, please don't misunderstood me." Aliah replied.
"Let's just go." Alpha Lucas said and headed to the car.
"Let's go Leilah." Aliah said to Leilah and they headed to the car.
"What happened to Alpha Lucas?" Leilah asked.
"What did you notice?" Aliah asked.
"He looked sad." Leilah answered.
"Don't mind him, I'm sure it's something that doesn't have to do with us, it's getting late, let's go." Aliah said.
They entered the car and drove off.

Prince Aisen and Liam tried everything they could to locate Leilah, but they just couldn't, they have checked everywhere including her room for a glimpse but failed.
They decided to ask Samantha if they have a relative somewhere that Leilah can visit.
They arrived at her room.
"We come to talk to you." Aisen said.
"Okay, how may I help you?" Samantha asked acting like a newcomer bitch.
"Can you stop twisting your lips? You look stupid." Liam answered.
Aisen Almost laughed, Samantha released her lips.
"Okay, I'm all ears." Samantha said.
"I guess you already knew that Leilah has left the palace right." Aisen replied.
"I heard that." Samantha said.
"I really can't believe you, your sister became a babysitter because of you, to give you a good life and when is leaving you didn't even care at all, you just watched her leave, excited that she will not be a shadow to you, hmm." Liam said, she bends her head and started walking.
"And where the hell do you think, you are heading to?" Aisen asked.
"It's seemed like you both called me to rub Leilah on my wife which I'm clearly not interested that's why I'm leaving." Samantha answered.
"Whatever just tell us if you have any relatives around here that you think Leilah can visit." Aisen said.
"I don't have any." Samantha replied.
"I'm sure you are saying it because you don't want us to find her right." Liam said.
"I'm saying the truth, if we had known someone as a relative then we wouldn't have come to the palace from the beginning, so we have no one and the only family we have, I'm sure that Leilah will prefer to die but will never return to that place." Samantha replied.
"Are you sure you are saying the Truth because you won't like the consequences of lying to us." Liam said.
"I'm sure." Samantha replied.
"You can leave." Aisen said, she left.
"Gosh, what should we do now? How can we find Leilah?" Liam asked frustrated.
"If we had agreed to live in peace at first then we wouldn't have lost Leilah like this, we should go back to her room." Aisen answered.
"What are we going to do there? You already knew that we have searched everywhere in that room but couldn't found any clue of her whereabouts." Liam said.
"You are right but I think we can try calling an engineer that can track her telephone the number she has been constantly calling, if he can track the location, I'm sure we can find at least a clue of where she is." Aisen replied.
"Brilliant idea, let's do it, I have an engineer friend I will call him immediately so we can start because we have no enough time, Jake's life is so much in danger." Liam said, they rushed off.

Emerald's pack...
Leilah, Aliah and Alpha Lucas returned to the palace, Aliah excused herself to use the bathroom really quick, it was only left Leilah and Alpha Lucas, she has noticed that he has been so moody since after he talked with Aliah after he held her hand.
She saw him about to enter his room.
"Alpha Lucas." She called and he paused.
"Are you okay?" She asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine, why did you ask?" He answered.
"Because you don't look fine to me, you look sad, moody, is anything wrong with you?" Leilah asked.
"Something from the heart." Alpha Lucas answered.
"Do you have a garden here?" She asked.
"Yes, why do you need it?" He answered.
"Come with me, I will tell you." Leilah said and he directed her to the garden while she hold his hands.
"Wow, such a beautiful garden, I so much love flowers." Leilah said.
"I do too, especially the red and white roses, it gave me so much peace of mind." He replied.
"That's same with me, so what do you think? Should we water the flowers." Leilah asked.
"Like???" He asked raising his eyebrows.
"Like this." She replied and used the water pipe and splashed it on him.
"What the heck Leilah!" He screamed while she laughed and ran away, he ran after her as he snatched the pipe from her and started splashing water on her, she looked so wet and so hot, he couldn't stop staring at her, the way she laughed, the sound of her laughter is going to make him go crazy.
After she got tired, she stops and hold her chest.
"Damn, I'm so tired, but thanks for making me laugh, it's has been so long."
Leilah said.
"Thanks for making me laugh too, actually I feel very happy after playing with you." Alpha Lucas replied.
"Glad I was able to make you smile, sadness is very bad, let's go and change before we get cold." Leilah said.
"Yes sure, see You at dinner." Alpha Lucas replied.
"Yeah, see you." Leilah replied with a smile.
***
Aisen and Liam called the engineer and he started working his magic, they prayed silently for him to be able to discover some clue, after almost an hour of endless waiting, he stood up and looked at them.
"The only person Leilah has been talking to on phone was from Emerald's pack." he said.
"Really, emerald pack?" Liam and Aisen asked immediately.
"Yes, and it's also from the palace." The engineer Answered.
"Great, thank you so much." Liam said.
"No, it's nothing, I just pray that you will be able to find her so Alpha Jake will get better, I will take my leave now." He replied.
"Thank you so much and please take care." Liam said.
"Thank you." Aisen also said.
"You all are welcome; Liam is a family friend so consider it as Helping a family."
He replied and waved at them as he leaves.
"God, how did Leilah made a friend at Emerald's pack, I mean it's so far from here, and the phone call coming from the palace, what does that means?" Aisen asked.
"I don't know, but why not first thing tomorrow morning we go to the Emerald's pack, we will talk to the Alpha and I'm sure we will find Leilah." Liam answered.
"You are right." Aisen said.

Prince Aisen and beta Liam left the palace first thing in the morning all the way to Emeralds pack, it took them some hours before they finally arrived, the guards allowed them in the palace, when Alpha Lucas saw them, he was shocked.
