Chapter 4 The Truth

"Keep your voice down. Trust me you don't want Derek to know that I know who you are. I would have explained what goings-on right now but you will have to wait till every one of them is out of the house. Then we can talk." John said to her. Ava was too inquisitive but she was calm when John asked her to be. "It's okay. just tell me what is going on when you are ready." Ava told him

Ava was getting comfortable seeing a face she recognized and the whole kidnapping scenario was beginning to turn in her favor. She was fed at the right time and she took baths and clothes at the right time.

Meanwhile, Victoria called Derek again, sending him a huge amount of money to make him shut his boy's mouth and take good care of Ava. " I don't want anything happening to her. Please, Derek, you have to watch over her as if she is the most prominent person in the world. I just need her there till I accomplish my task." Victoria begged over the phone.

" Consider it done," Derek said, smiling at the huge alert of money he received. Victoria switched off the burner phone she uses for contacting Derek and went to have a warm bath.

Ethan was annoyed with himself for falling into Victoria's trap. He didn't mean to disregard Ava in that way and was scared Ava might find out what happened. When he got to the palace. He entered his room and shut the door behind him. "What have I done? I shouldn't have stayed behind. I need to talk things out with Victoria and make sure she keeps this between us." Ethan said, looking nervous

Ethan couldn't go to work so he had Oliver go instead." Ollie please you are to take charge of the company while I try sorting out Ava's case. We need to find her fast. I don't know what is going on with her and the kidnappers haven't called for a ransom." Ethan said. Oliver nodded and said he would try his best to assist. And with that they shared hands.

The King heard what happened and was furious with Ethan for not telling him in time "What were you thinking boy? Do you think I wouldn't find out?" he yelled at Ethan "am sorry Dad. I wasn't thinking straight." Ethan defended himself.

Morgan took his phone and dialed a number " Hello, is that Mason? I need you to find someone for me. I will send a picture and description of her. I want her found before the end of this week. I will be sending you some money for the operation. You are to report to me directly. I believe I am being cleared on that." Mason answered "Crystal clear sir." and with that, he hung up the call.

"Do you have a picture of her on your phone?" he asked Ethan who nodded and sent the picture to his father. King Morgan forwarded the pictures to Mason and sent him some money. Ethan was rest assured of a positive result since his father had intervened.

He entered his room and lay on the bed thinking about what was going on with Ava. He missed her. He soon fell asleep.

Victoria woke up early and headed for work. She was surprised to see Oliver and not Ethan. "What happened to his majesty? Isn't he supposed to be at work?" Victoria asked. "Well, he has more important business to take care of. Some m here to run his errand till he is back." Oliver said, smiling at Victoria. She was not buying it. She took out her phone and called Ethan who saw the call and decided not to pick up. "Well, it's fine." She said and headed to her office.

" Does he think I am nobody treating me that way? I will show him I am Victoria Harrington and not some street girl he can just treat with disdain," she muttered to herself. The day was fast. Work ended and Victoria made her way to the palace. She met King Morgan immediately after she entered the palace. " His Majesty, I am Victoria Harrington," she said. Morgan looked at her and her face looked familiar. He didn't know where he had seen her but she sure was beautiful. " And who are you to my son Miss Victoria?" the king asked. Victoria explained that they were business partners and that she currently worked at the company.

The King smiled at the type of women hovering around his son and that would help him pick a suitable woman for him. He told one of his servants to get Ethan to come to see his guest. Ethan was on his way when he saw Victoria. " What are you doing here? I wasn't expecting you. Didn't you see Oliver at work.? You were supposed to tell him whatever you needed. He is in charge for now, not me." Ethan said, trying to dodge whatever questions Victoria has for him. " Well, I didn't come to discuss business, my prince. I came to check how you were doing and talk about us." The king looked at them both and saw they needed some space. He left the great hall and went to his study chamber.

"No calls, nothing," said Victoria looking at Ethan. She was expecting an explanation from him. But Ethan stood fixed looking and admiring her body. He was lost in thought. "Erm, I am sorry. I shouldn't be saying this but isn't Ava your friend? So why are you bent on destroying what we have? Ethan asked her.

Victoria was bent on having her way. " can't you see that she is not appropriate for you? I am way better than her and I would do right by you." she said. Now moving closer to Ethan. Ethan tries to resist her but she is persistent. "Can we leave here?" she said, looking at Ethan seductively. "okay. We can go to my room." Ethan said. They both head toward his room. " You have a lovely room," Victoria said. She went through the bookshelves and the wine bar. She loved what she was seeing. Ethan looked at her from behind. He couldn't stop staring at her and his body was aroused.

He was trying not to make a move on her. Victoria knew what he was thinking so she moved closer toward him and kissed him softly. " lay one on me. You don't have to feel shy about it. I know you want to." Victoria said and kissed him again.

Ethan grabbed her and drew her closer. He looked deep into her eyes. They were lemon green. It was the first time he saw them. "You have a lovely eye," he said and kissed her. Her tongue found its way into my mouth. He could feel the moisture of her lip gloss on his lips. She pressed her body hard against his. Her soft breast hit hard against his broad chest. Her nipples were hard and he knew she was all ready for him.

She went down slowly unzipping his fly, she took out his penis and put it in her mouth. Ethan felt her warm breath on his skin. His body felt warm and his penis grew larger as she softly caressed them and sucked him gently. Ethan thought to himself "She is good. Maybe even better than Ava." He thought about Ava again and my mood started to change. He loved her a lot and missed her. Victoria saw his mind was not with her and she immediately took his penis deeper into her mouth. He moaned. Bringing himself back to what was going on in his room. She kept sucking him, and just as he was about to come, she slowly got up making her way to my bed. She signaled to me to come to join her and I moved toward her.

She slowly took off his clothes, and his panties and he was all nude on the bed. She knew what she was doing and was good at it. She took off her panties and carefully took his hand down to her vagina. His hand felt the warmth of her vagina which was deep and wet. She came on top of him and used her hand to slip me into her. Once he was inside her, she began to twist her waist. As she rode him hard, he could feel himself inside her. Ethan looked at her face and she was enjoying herself.

For the first time in He felt really good. Victoria rode him hard this time sending him a strong message to hold her right. Ethan held her waist as she moved hard and with purpose. I looked at her thrust nipples and moved up to suck them. She knew and slowed down making it easy for me to suck on them. My erection grew larger and harder, I felt I was about to burst open, I felt some walking through my penis and it was fast. "oh shit!." I pushed her off me and the white sticky fluid came gushing out of my penis. I felt pleased, I looked at her and I was sure she was too. I got off the bed and headed for the bathroom. She wanted to follow but the glance I gave her made her stop. I took a shower and came out with a towel around my waist while she went in to also have her bath. She was out in no time.

" I want to go out. I need to stop at the station and check on Ava's family." Ethan told her. Victoria looked at him and said "After what we had together. You still want to treat me like dirt, right." she fell to the floor and started sobbing. Ethan feels apologetic, he went toward her and told her "I need to find Ava in time. I pray nothing bad happens to her. Try to understand this." he said and started to wear his clothes. They both head out after.

Morgan saw them coming down the stairs." Where are you off to?" he asked Ethan. " I need to visit the station and see how far they have gone with the search and I need to stop by the Sinclair family house too." Morgan was pleased with what he heard. He looked at Victoria and was pleased to know she enjoyed her stay. Just as they were about to head out of the palace. Mason called "your majesty we just located the kidnapper's hideout. We will move in with your permission sir." The king looked happy.

"Ethan escorts your guest out, we need to talk. And don't bother going to the station," he ordered. Victoria looked scared and wondered what the king wanted to discuss with Ethan. They close the door and went out of the palace.
