Finding out Alia Is Missing

(Jared P.O.V)
Finishing off the group of eighteen men, I emerged victoriously. My expression was hard and my dark eyes narrowed on each of the dead bodies. Sheathing my katana back at my waist I wasted no time in returning to the castle.
Alia was safe.
It was well past the setting sun when I had returned; it had taken me a day to find the group I had just finished off and moments to destroy them and another day to return. They were planning to take Alia away from me; I would not let that happen. Could not let that happen. I had promised myself that when I found her when she was born and promised the deceased Queen and Sara I would kill to protect her.
And I did.
I hated having to leave Alia alone for even the slightest amount of time, I was always there. it was my first time gone for more than two hours; I was gone for two days. But I thought of them coming after she forced me to make up my mind and leave her in order to protect her. It was a choice I had to make, but I hated being away from her for too long. Her life was complicated. Jared just prayed that she was safe while I was away. I would never leave for such a long time again, I swore it!
Upon entering her room through I balcony, my non-beating heart froze. Sniffing lightly, I could smell Alia and someone else, but I knew it was an unidentified male. Scowl forming my features as I looked out of the window I had entered.
How could I have let that happen? I should have thought of the possibility of those men being decoys! So wrapped up in my thoughts I didn’t hear the door open until I heard a voice call out.
“Hello, are you lost?” without turning around I knew it was Alia’s little sister, Amy. Scowling, even more, I turned my head to her.
Figures she’s be wearing revealing clothing… thankfully Alia was modest with her garments, I wouldn’t have her show what her sister did. “No,” I answered, turning away from her, I couldn’t stay here, who knows how long ago Alia was taken. It couldn’t have been that long though, judging from how she and her assailants’ scents still filled the room, it still lingered.
Moving to the balcony I was ready to leave when the girl grabbed my elbow, “Wait, what are you doing in my sisters’ room? I could be of more use than she could.” She grinned playfully when I tilted my head back. Yanking my arm out of her grip I looked away.
“No,” I said reaching the balconies edge.
Then she threw herself at me, wrapping her arms around me. “Don’t leave, at least stay for a while, we could talk. You know, get to know each other better.” When she was about to tap her finger to my nose I batted her hand away and disappeared from her hold, I was at the other end of the platform.
“Don’t touch me,” I threatened my voice rough and dangerous.
“And why not, handsome?” Amy dared to approach steadily. “I like bad boys.”
“Perhaps you don’t know how bad I can be,” I answered and watched her advance slowly. She was asking for death, I had to get to Alia.
“Perhaps you could show me,” she suggested.
Jared’s mood darkened, “Get away, there is only one woman who will be close to me.”
“And she is…?” she purred still creeping close.
“Not you.”
“Then who?”
“Alia…” that seemed to stop Amy in her tracks. She looked into my eyes and found them a crimson color other than the onyx they were before. “I’ve seen what you’ve done to her, I don’t usually despise females, most of the time I avoid them, but you… nothing could compare to my revulsion toward you. We will not meet again, I wouldn’t even dream of it.” My red eyes began to spin.
I didn’t even bother to catch her as she fell, just jumped off the balcony and commenced my search for my white-haired Princess.
