Upon having the princess under his control, the king had achieved a great goal and his next target was getting the red dragon and for that, he was planning to use the princess but not just yet.
No one really knew what the king wanted from them but what they did know was that whatever it was, it was going to be the end of the things they love and care about, he was no hero-king but a villainous one that cared about no one except himself.
He was selfish and loved to show people what he can do with his powers which made people wish he never had them.
Before the king married the queen everyone knew he was arrogant but he was not evil.. he loved to show off and play better than everyone else and what happened that turned him into a psycho that no one knew.
The king's father spiled him a lot growing up and he always got what he wanted except the one woman he truly cared about.
Everyone in the kingdom wondered what happened even though they never liked him they still cared for back then he was their young prince and now king but in the present, it was quite different the people wants him gone and wanted their young princess to be their new queen but that little home he took from them too.
After the king got the princess under his control he left the room and went to bed.
The next morning when Cosmo woke up she saw that the cocoon was not there and she flung up from the bed trembling.
"Lilith" Cosmo called out.
"Where is the cocoon?" Cosmo asked as she ran out of the room and she bumped into Ash and the others as they were heading to breakfast.
"What's wrong Cosmo?" Vivian asked as she grabbed onto the girl.
"Lilith is gone, she is not in the room" she responded and they all went to the room.
'Where could she have gone?" Ash asked.
'The king" Cosmo said then ran out of the room and they followed her.
'Where is Lilith?" she asked as she barged into the dining hall and the king smiled as he stood up and the guards grabbed onto Lilith.
'Where is she?" Cosmo shouted and he laughed as he walked up to them and grabbed Cosmo by the face.
'A place where you won't be able to get to her" he responded and Cosmo's eyes trembled and he released her.
"Lilith never did anything wrong to you... she always loved you even though you don't feel the same about her and this is what you are doing to her," Cosmo said and the king sighed.
"Let her go," the king said and so the guards moved away from her and she frowned.
'Where is the princess?" Ash asked.
"Missing your fiancee I see.... you guys will get to see her soon, for now, join me for breakfast" he responded as he sat down and Cosmo folded her cuffs in anger.
"Cosmo, come on we need to know where he has her, let's eat," Ash said as he held to the girl's hand and she looked at him the sighed, and went to sit down.
"Go on guys enjoy your breakfast," the king said as Cosmo took her food and the king kept looking at her.
'Stop staring at me, I will rip your eyes out" she said and the king laughed.
'Godo luck with that" he replied then continued eating as they began.
"Is she out of the cocoon?" Cosmo asked and the king sighed.
"No she is not nor do I know when she will be" he responded.
"Wh.. what will you do to her?" Cosmo asked.
"Why would I do something to her? she is no use to me as of now" he responded with a wicked smile.
"Liar... you are thinking of using her for something that I do know but what it is that I need to find out," Cosmo said to herself as she ate.
"I have to go to a meeting I wonder if I should and Vivian's parents along with the others are not going to help, they are scared," Ash said to himself with a frown then poured himself some juice and drank it.
"You okay?" Vivian asked and Ash looked at her then smiled.
"Yeah I am fine, don't worry eat your food" he responded and she smiled then continued eating.
"Uh... guys I will be leaving for a bit today," Sunny said.
'Why?" Cosmo asked and Sunny smiled.
"I will tell you when I get back" she responded.
"I get it... be careful Sunny and come back safe," Cosmo said and the girl smiled.
'Don't worry I will just relax" Sunny said then disappeared after she finished eating.
"Uh.. girls I will be leaving now too I have things to take care of," Ash said as he got up and Cosmo looked at him then he sighed.
"Don't worry I am just going to talk to some of the royals you guys want to come along?" he whispered as he stooped down near Cosmo and she smiled.
"I don't want to go anywhere what if she comes back?" she asked and Ash smiled then patted Cosmo on the head.
"Okay I will be going now, see you guys later," Ash said then left and as he walked out of the dining hall he frowned.
"I doubt I will get any help, they want to but most of them are afraid to go against him," Ash said to him as he got into the coach.
"If I leave and something happens, no I will just send messages to the other kingdoms," he said then got out of the carriage and went back to the dining hall and they all left staring at him.
"Why are yous till here?" Jasmine asked and he sighed.
'I am not going anywhere" he responded and Cosmo laughed.
'I would call that fright" Cosmo said and he sat down smiling as the king got up and left.
