Chapter 63 (a)
Freya
Camilla was so strong that she managed to get over the incident really quickly. I know because I can see how her face lights up as she sits beside her mate. I couldn’t believe that something like that happened and never thought that we would find her alive and well. Thanks to the moon goddess for her guidance and care. Alec holds her hand and never wants to let it go. We are now in the king’s office with everyone and we decided not to let the advisors or councils know about what happened. Rapha and Matteo didn’t kill the last two rogues they fought with, since they wanted to know more about the mastermind of the kidnapping.
“Are you alright, dear?” King Marco asked Camilla. She nodded her head, smiling.
“Yes, his highness. Thank you for asking.”
“It must be traumatizing for you. I hope that they have never done enough damage for you to be broken inside and out.” he replied,
“They didn’t do anything to me, I pretended to be unconscious the whole time and they were planning on using me to get to my uncle.” she told him.
“What do you mean?”
“His highness, they were planning to force Uncle Rapha to join them. Since I am his only family, they thought that if they kept me hostage, they would be able to make him agree.”

ey must be dreaming,” Rapha said, “Don’t take it to heart, my dear. You know that I love you like a child. But you also know that our family has been loyal and very supportive of the royals and the palace. I always think of ways to get you without agreeing to them,” he added.
“I know that. But I still try to make an escape plan, since I know that it will be very difficult for you. I didn’t want you to suffer for making such a decision because of me,” she replied,
“How did whoever it was who took you manage to get you?” I asked curiously. “Was Eunice there?” I added.
“I don’t know either. All I can remember was, I told Alec that I was going to get your laundry to bring them to the omegas. After that, nothing.”
“If Eunice’s scent was there, we can say that her father, Ronaldo, was involved in this as well.” It was Matteo. Then he looked at me, “Do
you think he was the one that your parents met when you came here before?” he added,
“I don’t think so. I would know if it was really him. But he has a beard.” I replied, then everyone looked at me and then at each other. “Is there something wrong with what I said?”
“What do you mean he has a beard?” Matteo asked,
“He has a beard. I remember that the one mom and dad had a talk with was a man without a beard.”
“Ronaldo has no beard.” King Marco said,
“I have seen him a few times and I never saw him without it.” I replied,
“He had no beard, he hates it so he always shaves it.” Matteo said, “That’s according to Eunice.” he added, so I creased my forehead at
- h. That’s before I met you, baby.”
I don’t understand why I see Ronaldo differently, then it hits me. “Alec, Clay, have you seen Ronaldo?” I asked and they both nodded. “And?”
“He has a beard,” they both answered.
“Are you three under some spell or what?” Rapha asked and we looked at each other. “You’re under a spell?”
“Wait, in order for anyone to recognize him, he cast a spell on them?” Camilla asked,
“It’s the other way around, I think,” the king replied, and we looked at him. “I think he cast it to himself that whosoever sees him will see him differently. I mean if you don’t live in the palace. You will be seeing him like how Freya and the others saw him.”
“That’s possible, I remember Eunice told me that her mother was a witch.” Matteo said again, which annoyed me, so I couldn’t help but growl at him. “Baby, I was just sharing the information.” he said and held my hand. I saw Camilla laughing with Alec so I rolled my eyes at
them.
“Since Ronaldo is our number one culprit, we have to be careful because he has a lot of police people who support him. He may have taken Camilla because he was certain that he would never get Rapha on his side.” King Marco said,
