"Was it concluded a natural death because he died from sleep....,"

"Miss Lopez, you will shut up and return to your seat if you don\'t have anything meaningful to say other than disturbing the peace of the class," Mr Richard said with a tone of finality. 

"But..," Joanna grabbed Audrey\'s hand and shook her head in disapproval.

As obvious as it was that Audrey had something to say, the lady in the blue denim jacket reluctantly sat down.

After being rudely shut down by the furious lecturer, Audrey remained moody for the rest of the time Mr Richard spent there.

The instant lecture ended Audrey who was still in a terrible mood stomped out of the class without waiting for Joanna as she normally did.

"Drey...," Joanna paused when noticed that Audrey was not in her seat.

Joanna\'s eyes wandered around the hall in search of her best friend.

She was stunned after she confirmed at last that Audrey was gone.

"Where did she go to?" Joanna mumbled. She picked up her red handbag and hurried out of the hall through the back door.

As she walked on the long pathway she noticed the way people\'s attention was focused on her but she was in a haste to stop and asked what she did to warrant their attention from them.

Joanna finally caught up to Audrey as the frowning lady descend the stairs in front of the open field.

"Hey," She yelled and grabbed the hand of the lady who has refused to heed the constant call of her name.

"You didn\'t wait for me after the lecture ended, why?" Joanna demanded, her hands still clutching Audrey\'s right hand.

"If this is about how I stopped you from discussing the topic further, you know I didn\'t mean any harm...," Joanna paused to catch her breath.

"You know how petty Mr Richard is. I stopped you from tackling him any further because I didn\'t want you to get into his bad book...,"

"Do you think I am acting this way merely because I failed to prove a point?" Audrey snapped.

"Isn\'t that correct?" Joanna narrowed her eyebrows, not knowing why Audrey was so worked up.

"Of course not. I am doing this for your sake and Amos...,"

"But what does the argument about the previous King\'s deaths have to do with me?" Joanna hissed, confusion written all over her face.

"Wait, don\'t tell me you are not aware of what is going on campus...,"

"And why was I supposed to know every new gossip that surfaces on campus....,"

"But this is no gossip, girl," Audrey cut in. Her words and serious expression made the less concerned lady cool off.

For a minute Joanna let her eyes move from one corner of the campus to the other.

How people stared at her was the exact way they did when she arrived on campus earlier.

"How could you not know what happened when you are in the spotlight...,"

"I can see that, so do you care to tell me what is going on now?" Joanna demanded a bit more seriously this time around.

"Rumour has it that the King never travelled out of the Kingdom. The news is all over campus..."

"W-what!" Joanna\'s loud voice garnered more attention from others.

"No...no.. that is not possible," Joanna shook her head in disbelief.

They have been extra cautious in an attempt to make sure that none knows the real identity of Amos so how...

"You are lying to me right?" Joanna accused.

"You told me you can hear things from a distance so how about listening to what they are saying for yourself?" Audrey suggested and pointed at where three ladies stood talking and pointing hands at them.

Without further wasting time Joanna let her inner senses travel far away.

"If the King never left the Kingdom, where would he be?"

"Why would a whole King abandon his palace?"

"Do you think the fact that he never left the kingdom has something to do with the recent deaths in the kingdom?"

"Is the news that he is responsible for the killing of humans and werewolves true?"

"Do you think that one over there knows his whereabouts?"

Joanna watched as the last lady who spoke pointed a finger at her.

"How dare...,"

"Let\'s go and talk somewhere private," Audrey grabbed the fuming lady\'s hands and together they made their way out of the basketball field.

As they tried to find a suitable place to discuss, Audrey and Joanna didn\'t notice a lady standing on a rooftop.

[Isn\'t that Joanna and Tomboy]

Tiffany, who happened to be on the rooftop of an abandoned building, strained her neck to get a clear glimpse of the ladies underneath the building where she stood.

How Audrey and Joanna kept scrutinising the surroundings for heaven knows what pinged Tiffany\'s interest.

[What the hell are those two up to?]

The curiosity to find out what Audrey and Joanna wanted to do made Tiffany leave the rooftop.

Meanwhile, as Joanna and Audrey tried to find a secure place to talk, they didn\'t notice the presence of the lady hiding behind the wall of the building eavesdropping on them.

After they had made sure they were far away from the main campus Audrey and Joanna paused.

The anxious Joanna turned and stared at Audrey.

"Drey, what on Earth happened on campus?" Joanna quizzed. "How did they know that His Majesty has been in the Kingdom this past month? And who started the rumour that is almost turning into a wildfire?" She demanded.

"I don\'t know who did this," Audrey stated. 

"By the time I reached campus, everyone was already talking about it. I tried to call and inform you about the development but your cell phone was switched off," Audrey continued in a meek tone.

eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ There was momentary silence after Audrey replied.

"Anna, is Kay really sick?" Audrey asked out of the blue, her suspicious gaze fixed on Joanna\'s fuming expression.

"Sick?" Joanna frowned. She lifted her head and shot Audrey a stern glance, "And why would you ask me such a thing?" She added.
