Chapter 17 - Chapter.....

Levi and Leth leaves the mansion without anyone noticing, their direction, the apartment Levi and Riel had stayed before moving into the mansion.

As they left fear and worry crept into every fiber of their being, but yet they couldn't bring their self to turn around.

Holding onto each others hand and grasping it like it was their lifeline , they left

Hours Later

A maid runs fidgeting and panicking. she walks towards Luster whispering something to his. And by his reaction it seemed that it was important.

""What did she say?" Riel asks

"The boys aren't in their room" He says sipping his black tea,

"What?! h-how come?, when?" I say surprised

Lustre looks at Riel begrudgingly and then his his face torts with one full of questions "And you don't have anything to do with this?" he asks

She couldn't believe this man after all the time they spent together he still didn't trust her and it's not like she trusted him but still

She looks at him her face twitching "And if I were, would I still be here?" she says

Lustre sipping his tea replies with an "I see" and nothing else

Kiha busts in like she had a rainbow floating over her head with her usual annoying tone saying

"Lustre Honey, I'm home" squealing like a rodent in hot water she adds "Ugh, I can't wait to get married to you in a few weeks" she glances over at riel smirking then continues blabbing on.

Riel ignores her and then pretending like she hadn't seen Riel all morning she says

"Oh Riel, I didn't notice you. Good morning" she says "Don't worry, we'll invite you to the wedding of course, as proof."

 Proof of what? Riel asks herself as she turn to listen to Kiha. Not giving Kiha a response she Ignores her.

"Better be careful now darling, Gravity is one cruel bitch" Kiha says her smirk growing wider as Riel leaves " Trust me, you'll be the maid of Honor and you'll look gorgeous in the dress I pick out. But of course not gorgeous enough to outshine me." she add

"I can't wait" riel replies shooting a grin

"Where do you think you're going? Riel" Lustre says.

Riel stops in track hearing the question "I'm not needed here am I. so if I could, I'd like to leave" she says, her voice irritated. Saying that Riel leaves, her heel, against the marble floor.

Watching Riels' Silhouette fade in the distance, Lustre picks up the magazine that a maid had dropped for him.

"Kiha." he says calmly, his face stoic.

"Yes, what is it?" she responds, her voice soft and gentle as she spoke.

"When is the official date of our wedding?"

Hearing the question, Kihas' eyes widened with shock, Lustre had never seemed interested in their wedding, but now she was actually glad when he asked

" it about three weeks from now." She says trying hide her excitement.

"It will be postponed further"

Hearing this Kiha grew mad with rage and disappointment "What?! Lustre I've always compromised but.. I can't wait that long"

"Then, I guess you'll just have to." he said.

Kiha knew there was no point in arguing, but yet she couldn't understand why, why did the one she love so much, why was he so cruel to her, she wanted to burst out in tears until

"It's been moved further so, we can have the court earlier" he says

As she listened to what he had just said , her face beamed with happiness "Really?... If so. I'll get the preparations done."

Moving happily along, Kiha left. But something seemed to be wrong with Lustre, Something almost melancholic, Kiha stopped in her feet glancing back at Lustre feeling it but still, she ignored it.

Days later.

Days had passed and there were still no signs of Leth or Levi returning to the mansion, and no news from the drivers teachers or maids. Getting worried, Riel heads over to Lusters' room, thinking to Consult him and come up with a solution and maybe the whereabouts of the twins.

As she enters, she walks in On Kiha and Lustre, the situation seeming, they were about to do the deed given the outfit Kiha was wearing.

Her thin robe tight against her pale skin, her dark silky waist length wavy hair brushing against Lustres' face as their face was inches apart.

They looked at her Surprised, most especially Lustre. It was the first she had seen that expression on his face and she felt awful, she wished she had knocked and she felt stupid for not doing so. Kiha stops in her tracks looking at riel.

Freezing in a stand point, her face beats red with embarrassment.

"I'm sorry for Intruding, Please excuse me" saying this riel rushes out of the room.

She couldn't believe her eyes, Their kids were missing and yet of all times. He chose that moment to roll around in bed with his fiancée, She felt stupid for giving him even an inch of trust and yet, yet, a corner of her heart thought that they made an excellent couple and she hated herself for thinking that.

Suddenly, she felt a firm grip on her hand, she turns finding Lustre latching onto her, He was bare chested with only pants on him.

"Let go" she says trying to struggle free

"You wanted to talk" he says his face looking indifferent.

Was this guy serious, he wanted them to talk like that? Riel said to herself

"I can talk later, besides you seemed busy" she says avoiding eye contact

"Off course he did, you idiot... And that's why you should've knocked. Never heard of a thing called privacy" Kiha says, her voice echoing through the hall.

Riel turns to look at Kiha, who was dressed in extra thin robes that were either not her size or to thin.

Looking at Kiha, she could feel the rage washing back up and same was the embarrassment

"You should've knocked" and besides, we were in the process of preparing for the ceremony" she says, her voice arrogant.

Riel wished she hadn't heard that, but what could she do. She felt a surge of emotions within her, she hated the sound of what Kiha had just said, But why... Was this jealousy.

And then Kihas' voice snapped her back to reality
