Chapter 469 At The Secret Passage
"What I want to tell you is confidential and we can\'t possibly talk here right?" Kyle looked around the crowded club in a bid to make her understand what he meant.
Audrey scrutinized their environment after he spoke. Although the occupants of the club looked so normal and human, through their scents she could tell that there were more than a dozen vampires and a bunch of werewolves there.
They might be busy with their partners right now but she knew their sensitive ears would pick up every word they said.
"If you have a more convenient place then let\'s go," Audrey agreed at last.
Kyle led her to his room, a place Audrey was very familiar with right now. All her thought was that they were gonna talk in his room not until he turned his wardrobe and there was a secret passage in front of them.
"Come, let\'s go in," He held her hand and guided her into the dark passage.
Since Audrey was naturally a fearless girl, he didn\'t have trouble leading her into the place.
They walked through stairs and afterwards arrived at a levelled ground.
Even though the place was too dark for Audrey to see anything she knew they must have arrived at their destination.
"Wait here while I turn on the lights," Kyle said and let go of her hand for the first time since they journey into the dark secret passage.
Audrey waited as he instructed without giving him a headache.
She was standing at the same spot he left her when suddenly the lights came on and immediately illuminated her dark surroundings.
After the lights came on Audrey was surprised to see what the place looked like with the lights on.
Unlike how dreadful it looked in darkness, the blue and white walls were furnished with two couches and a glass table at the centre.
Paintings were hung on the walls and decor was in the corner of the room.
All these things combined gave the spacious room a tasteful look.
"The interior of the room sure exceeded my expectations, I must say," Audrey said and strolled to one of the couches at the centre of the room.
"Because this is a place the King of our great Kingdom frequents a lot, I had to put in a lot of work. I am happy it\'s to your liking," Kyle smiled and moved to where she sat.
He took his position beside her.
"Are you sure it\'s not because of your numerous women you made it look so beautiful? I know you are the type of guy who doesn\'t like to lose face...,"
"I promise I have never bought any of the women I hung out with in the past here. Apart from Josephina who is Kay\'s person, you are the only woman I have brought here...,"
"And why are you telling me this?" Audrey retorted, her fierce glares focused on him.
Kyle looked into her eyes and replied, "It\'s because I trust you. We might not have known each other for a long time but you have earned my trust...,"
"If this is another of your way to winning me over then let me tell you that you have picked the wrong location and time for it...,"
"But I am serious about this," Kyle pleaded his innocence.
"We will talk about that later but for now let\'s talk about what brought us all the way here," Audrey decided to change the topic when she saw that this conversation was leading nowhere.
"Why exactly is Kayden treating Anna this way when he knows very well that she can\'t stand being ignored by those she loves?" Audrey asked in a cool tone.
"I swear, I will not hesitate to hit him in the face if there is no valid reason why he is behaving this way towards her," Audrey threatened.
"There is a fact that so many people in the Kingdom are not aware of and this is that the King has always been under death threats ever since he became the King...,"
"Since ancient times this has always been what kings face. Although the news doesn\'t normally carry this information, so many people in the kingdom are not ignorant of this fact," Audrey replied meekly.
She stood up and strolled around the spacious room.
"What I don\'t understand is what this has to do with the misunderstanding he has with Anna," Audrey said and turned to stare at Kyle for enlightenment.
"You will know in a few minutes," Kyle muttered. He stood up and approached where she stood gazing at a painting hung in front of her.
"Not long ahead we discovered that the human world has sent spies into the Kingdom. And these spies are not just mere spies but have strange powers...,"
"What do you mean by they have strange powers?" Audrey raised an eyebrow.
"Aren\'t humans the weakest beings alive so how could they possibly possess strange powers that made them a threat to us?" Audrey asked in confusion.
"That is the same thing we have always believed until we saw what their strange powers look like...," Kyle trailed.
"They can fly on buildings, possessed speed; the speed that is way advanced like that of vampires...,"
"Tell me that is a lie," Audrey replied. Her eyes bulged in disbelief.
"It\'s not," Kyle responded.
"We have a hunch that they are responsible for the recent killings of werewolves, humans and vampires in the kingdom. Their main target is Kayden but unfortunately, because he is in disguise they don\'t know who he is...," Kyle paused to make sure that she was following what he was saying.
"We already set in plans to capture them but things haven\'t been working in our favour. To make things worst he discovered that this set of humans with strange powers has been tailing Joanna...,"
"What!" Audrey shouted. Her eyes widened in shock.
"We and the others suggested he return to the palace but he vehemently refused and this is because he is worried about her safety. He is afraid that he won\'t be able to protect her from a close distance if he stays in the palace; a place where his movements are restricted," Kyle explained in a calm tone.
"Wait, wait, wait...," Audrey raised her hand in the air. She paced about in front of him with her right hand still in the air.

A/N:
Hello lovely readers, so first of all I want to apologise for being away for three days without notifying you guys.
It was bad of me to do that so I apologized.
One more thing there is something on my mind and judging from the kind of person your beloved author is, I won\'t have peace of mind if I don\'t tell you guys about it.
Like I informed you guys, my birthday was on the 18th of March, and will you believe it if I told you that out of all the amazing readers I have that it was only two readers who wished me on that special day?
I was so goddamn disappointed if you may know.
Let\'s drop aside the fact that I got no gifts from all of you, but why didn\'t any of you wish me on that day?
It was my birthday after all and I informed all of you about it beforehand just to prevent this from happening so why...?
I will be a liar if I say I wasn\'t hurt and heartbroken by your actions. And I am still hurting from this even as I speak.
I really thought you guys would always have my back in everything. I believed in your love for me so much but...
