Tales of the Throne
For thousands of years now, queens have been ruling our kingdom. When a Queen's reign has come to an end, a successor must be chosen by what we now know as The Rule of Cardinal.
Miss Katherina Daventin, a young naive and innocent girl, has been chosen by the Cardinal to rule over the people of Nydisia.
In a world where supernatural beings have not been kept a secret, she struggles to prove herself as a human chosen to rule a multitude of diverse creatures.
Lucian Williams, one of the strongest beings to walk the earth, and the son of Queen Orizelle, fights alongside Katherine to help her stake her claim to the throne as it is his duty as the General of Nydisia, and slowly love surpasses duty.
*This is a slow burn book, it is not going to be rushed as you will see a lot of character development and growth in the plot at a steady pace.*

Chapter: Chapter 23: Royal Academy: Part 5--The Nydisian Kingdom, Eraregord, Royal Academy--Elizabeth tilted her head upon hearing Katherine's question as she was trying to think of the best way to narrate what had happened."Well, as the human world found out about the existence of supernatural beings, things began to change drastically. Humans felt threatened and retaliated against a threat that wasn't there.""Safe zones for the supernatural were opened up to the world but places like Peru, Elysian, Avingora and more, were quickly invaded by the human population.""This led to angst among the leaders of the world and the situation made people grow weary fast. Many things that are now accepted today were forbidden in the old era. One of which involved species and societal norms.""As is known, a single breed supernatural cannot choose their mates, and as time went on werewolves were becoming mates with humans, vampires becoming mates with werewolves, this gave birth to

Chapter: Chapter 22: Royal Academy: Part 4--The Nydisian Kingdom, Eraregord, Royal Academy--Lady Nicole was quite slim and she was relatively tall, she looked like a well-sculpted model. Everything she did reflected elegance and poise.Though Lady Nicole and her brother, Lord Nicolian weren't directly related to the King, they were distant cousins and the only set of people from his bloodline still alive.The two siblings are the descendants of the King's grandmother, therefore they were purebred vampires and not hybrids.Lady Nicole picked up a red apple from the try of fruits and her long thin perfectly manicured fingers grazed it gently as she took a bite, and not a single drop of apple juice could be seen on her lips."How long have you schooled in the academy?" Katherine asked the group of people around her that seemed to be engaged in small talk."You've misunderstood, we're only present to receive our official certificate of becoming scholars," Sir Alexander

Katherine, however, was partially glad she didn't have to see or speak with Lucian for some time.She walked into the private dining hall that was on a higher floor than the main dining hall. The sun shone through the large glass montage and glowed up the entire private room.Immediately, Katherine noticed the eight people seated across the dining table. Llewellyn mentioned to her that he had made arrangements for her to remain out of sight from the majority of those that schooled here.Little did Katherine know that most of the people seated in front of her were related to the royal family one way or another.Katherine tried not to let the number of red eyes in the room frighten her as sh

Chapter: Chapter 20: Royal Academy: Part 2--The Nydisian Kingdom, The Castle, The Royal Court--"My King," The guards bowed as Lucian walked through the halls of the royal court and the gates that lead to the castle opened in his wake.Lucian had left Llewelyn to handle matters at the academy for a few days. His return to the castle was going to be very brief as he would need to select recruits soon.He had changed into a King's attire and his hair was slicked back neatly as always, except for one strand that rested slightly below his eyebrow.His footsteps echoed in the marble halls as he pushed both doors of the royal court and sat down on the throne. Those that were in the room bowed respectfully and in awe of their current leader."Milord, based on the constable's report, the magistrates of Sareweth sent in a report of several witches practicing magic that has been unaccounted for," the herald said.Ever since the old era witches were allowed to use magic but on

Do you still wish to hold the tournament?" The headmaster, Dane, asked. His Highness had sent word to him a few days ago that he'd be arriving in a week's time to gather the academy's best as well as strongest fighters."Yes, we'll take them based on ranking but make it quick, I can't stay here for long." Dane nodded in understanding before leaving the room to tell one of his subordinates to get started on the announcement to the students.When Dane left the room, Lucian turned to Llewellyn and spoke, "More and more people are starting to believe the throne has been corru

Lady Victoria glanced out of the vehicle wondering what was causing the hold-up.Part of Victoria was excited she'd get to see the General again. She wore her finest silk and made sure she looked undeniably beautiful just for him."Name?" One of the guards asked in doubt. The King had explicitly informed them that no one outside the castle should be let in until he arrives."Wikerstone," The coachman said while calming the horses with one of his hands.The guard was well aware of the Wikerstone family, they were very highly valued to the throne but he didn't want to risk offending the new ruler. "Apologies but under direct orders from the King, no one is allowed through the gates," The guard said.Upon hearing this Lady Victoria turned red out of anger. How dare they? She thought. She opened the
