Nico Pov:

     I didn't let Dallas finish his sentence. I ran as fast as I could to the sound of my sister's scream. When I got in the sight infront of me made me even more worried. My mom was crying, father was talking to some of our guards in a hushed tone, Kehlani was crying in Dejun's arms, Jacob was holding a crying Ameilia in his own, Vera and Jordyn were questioning Iris's mystery man while he himself looked like a crying terrified mess. I started my own search, I looked behind banisters, in rooms, under tables, in all of her favorite parts of the castle, nothing. I broke down in the middle of the hallway infront of her open bed room door, falling to my knees sobbing.

     " I should've stayed," I choked out, " It's my fault I should've kept watch, never let her out of my site."

     A pair of arms grabbed me and pulled me into a hug, rubbing circles on my back, they didn't say anything, just gave me a silent comfort. Once the last tear left my eye I looked up at the person, it was Jordyn. She wiped my tear-filled eyes and gave me a kiss on the head. It confused me but I didn't say anything, I needed someone right now, I didn't care who it was.
     " Nico, it isn't your fault, don't you ever EVER blame yourself," she told me staring deeply into my eyes.  She leaned in.

     I let my lips touch hers, it was odd, I didn't have feelings for her. I just wanted comfort, I felt helpless. She pulled away from me and apologized, she got up and turned around, only to stop in her tracks.

" Oh uh Dallas," she stammered, " W-we were just looking for Iris."

Dallas had a glossy look to his eyes, he looked betrayed? Before I knew it both of them were gone.

Dallas pov:

I can't believe what I had just saw. My close friend who u confided in, and the person I've had feelings for since I was 15. Jordyn pushed passed me awkwardly and Nico stayed with his eyes glued to the floor. How could they? How could you Jordyn? Wiping my stray tear I walked down the long corridor, imagining myself.....in Jordyn's place.

King Dawn Pov:

That wretched brat of a daughter. My own spawn with that stupid whore of a woman. They will pay for their crimes, their sins, their wrongful rule. I watched as everyone panicked around me searching for MY child, fools all of them really. The girl is currently where no one will find her, everyone around is scurrying around this pathetic castle for a even more pathetic person.

Nico Pov:

After the incident I went back to the ball room, everyone was still there the parents of my friends were their with their own kids, my mother pulled me into a hug and cried on my shoulder. I felt nothing, nothing at all. I'm begging who ever has my sister, please, please give her back. You're putting everyone in such a grief, please bring back my sister. As annoying as she is I love her. I need her. Her mystery man was lurking in the corner, he made eye contact with Mr.Shimizu, his eyes went wide.

" Yuta, come," Mr.Shimizu bellowed.

Everyone looked shocked, who was this kid? Why is he here? What does he have to do with Iris?

Iris pov:

It's cold. So cold, I can't move, I can't see, I can't breathe. Help me.
