History of Xander:
Many moons ago, there lived a king, named Lycano. He ruled over the land of Arcadia and had thousands of men and women under his command. His palace was filled with gold, fine foods and elaborate art work, but one thing he did not have was love. One day King Lycano was haunting in the forest and he came upon a small lake. As he approached he saw a lady sitting at the edge of the lake, singing. King dismounted from his horse and approached her. When the woman turned to face the king, her incredible beauty struck him. The king had already fallen for this damsel, but the girl was none other than Fortuna the Goddess of Luck and Fate, the daughter of Jupiter. So king decided to prepare the greatest feast in the history of man to impress Jupiter. The king had prepared to host Jupiter over the course of seven days. Each day the king would try to engage the god and impress him with his wealth, great gifts but Jupiter would hardly look at the King. If king had one flaw it was his temper. When he was pushed, it didn't take very much to set him off. In retaliation, the king told his head cook to prepare a steak of human flesh but to make it make it appear appetizing. The cooks served the meal as usual, but Jupiter immediately recognized the ruse. Feeling insulted, Jupiter cursed the king along with his loyal soldiers to be wolves from that day forward and said gravelly, "you have permission to marry my daughter, but I doubt she'll want you now that she can see the beast you truly are", then vanished to the heaven. Luckily, Jupiter's wife Juno was watching the whole scene unfold. She made a deal with him that if he could control his temper, she would mend the curse. She transformed the king and his soldiers back into human, but warned them not to loss temper as then he would turn back into a wolf and he would not return to human from until he calmed down. With Juno's blessing, Fortuna and King Lycano were married and lived together happily for few years. Jupiter also blessed them later and they blessed by a boy Are and a girl Ash. With the passage of time, when Arc and Ash grew up they noticed Arc got his father's strength with his mother's polite, wise and kind-hearted nature but Ash was just as ill-tempered and beasty as father. So after Lycano's death, Jupiter made Arc the king of whole underworld not only the king of werewolves but also vampires, witches and all other supernatural creature and gifted the werewolves' partial immortality. Arc married to his fated mate, Mable [a she werewolf, daughter of his father's loyal general] and started living happily. They were blessed by a son, Luciano.
On the other hand, Ash married a man named, Michel who didn't know about her secrets. After just two years of their marriage, Ash killed Michel for a disagreement, in her wolf from, as she couldn't learn to control her rage and returned to his brother, Arc. But she was already pregnant with her son, Cyrus. After some years, Ash was killed by a strong coven of vampire for her own mistake as she attacked them for her own pleasure. Arc who was a noble and wise kind signed friendly treaty with vampires in spite of fighting as he did not want to endanger the underworld by declaring a fatal world between two most strong creatures.
With the passage of time, Luciano and Cyrus started growing up like brothers. They both were the carriers of their parent's qualities. After almost ruling for 600 years the king decided to hand over his throne to his successor, Luciano. Luciano at that time already found his mate, Rosalie who was the daughter of Vampire king, Vlad and happily married with her. He was ideal for becoming the king so without any second thought, Arc handed him the throne. Luciano became really a good king and great alpha. The alpha and Luna soon blessed with two sons, Xavier and Xander. They both were hybrid, easily they considered as the strongest men of the whole underworld.
But this whole incident enraged Cyrus, who always envied Luciano as he never got his parent's love and he was angry with King Arc also, for not taking revenge for his mother's death, so Luciano's marriage with vampire princess, added fuel to the fire. He started planning against the king. He was determined to take revenge and to be the ultimate king of underworld. So he made his own army without king's knowledge. In a fine night of the Blood moon festival when all vampires and werewolves were busy in celebrating, Cyrus killed King Luciano, Luna Rosalie, Xavier and the former king Arc. The royal family betrayed by some of his own men and his own brother like cousin, Cyrus whom king used to trust most. Helpless Mable along with five years old little Xander, lived the kingdom with the aid of some old loyal soldiers like Francesco, Luxian and some others. Cyrus caught some vampires as the assassinators and killed them as a punishment. Then he declared himself as the king. His plan was successful not only he became the king but also he killed his mother's killer. But he was little worried about Xander so ordered some men to find them as soon as possible.
On the other hand, Xander and Mable started living in the human world in the middle of the forest along with their soldiers. They started living like humans and Mable along with Francesco and Luxian
Started running business in various famous cities of US. Time passed by and Xander grew up for becoming the king of Underworld again. He indeed became the strongest man in the world with only intention of life to take revenge. Almost 89years later, Mable decided to throne Xander. Though Xander was only 24, but according to the human world 94 years old.
Xander (from Xander's point of view)
"Your highness, have you called me?" asked Damien. I replied, "Yes, we have to live the forest castle soon as there is some complication in the business. So, we should fix the meeting with the vampire king, Ralph as soon as possible."
"Yes I will arrange and I th-", Damien stopped in the middle of the sentence as all the wolves of my pack along with Damien heard the screamed of Damien's brother, Liam in their mind calling for help. We could easily hear each other as we were connected through mind link. Instantly Damien and I along with some other wolves started running towards the Liam's direction in our wolf form. Liam entered in the human's locality and as a result trapped by some poachers trap. Liam's voice started fainting slowly, it seemed like he was badly injured. When we reached to him, the unexpected sight surprised us all, a beautiful human girl trying to untie the throne net.
XanderThe young girl looked like little scared but with her trembling hands, she was treating Liam's wound in a smooth way. For a moment I froze stuck by her beauty.Along with Damien and Rachel, we started noticing her every moments. Then in her silvery tone, she asked her friend for some foods. Her bravery and caring attitude mesmerized me, a terrifying excitement built inside me as I walked few steps closer to her. A strong smell of sweet fruits and cherry filled my heart and my wolf instantly growled, Our Mate.'My Mate!'She was really my fated mate, the moment I came close to her I recognized her. Her scent was lingering all over the place. Her beauty was intoxicating and she was built to drive men wild. Everything about her was simply perfect. It seemed like she was born to be my mate, my queen, my Luna. I couldn't think about anything except for loving her and making love with her. H
HAZELThe night was quite peaceful. When I woke up next morning, I found that snow started to fall and the whole area was already covered with a thin layer of snow. It was a chilled weather outside. I was just peeping from the tent when Ruth asked, "Ohhoo, you are already awake. How are you feeling dear?" I replied with a smile, "Fit and fine." Anna yelled in excitement, "Then spill out what is going on between you and that handsome one with sapphire eyes?"I surprisingly asked, "You mean Xander? Ohho nothing special why?"Anna exclaimed, "Don't lie. I saw the way he was taking care of you, even yesterday he came to leave you." I blushed instantly but strongly denied, "Nothing at all," and left the tent for ignoring further interrogation. I already started missing him and I knew very well I was deeply in love with him, in such a short span of time, no matter the feeling was mutual or not. Soon we were called for breakfast, everyone individually asked about my he
HAZELThe night was sleepless. My whole body was tingling all night and urging for his touch. I never knew kissing could be that good. On the other hand, my mind was full of questions. 'Who is he really? Why his eyes change color? How? What secret he is hiding?' but I wanted to know only one answer, "Will he come to meet me today?" It was the last day of trekking and I didn't know would he meet with me after that tour or not. So forgetting about the other questions, I only wanted to know that one and I was really upset.I woke up late that morning. We trekked the nearby mountain whole day, I was anticipating for Xander, but he didn't come at the afternoon. Though I was busy with Ruth and Anna, but my mind was somewhere else. Prf. Henry didn't lead our team that day and he was not shown near me. So I was kind of happy for that. When it was already night and darkness engulfed the surroundings I was sure he would not come. I felt a heavy burden on my heart and I was extre
HazelI stood on that place with watery eyes, staring at his back. He didn't look back again. My heart was aching in an unknown unbearable pain. I slowly then entered to the camp and found my friends. They both were really worried for me and when they saw my wound and bloody right hand Anna immediately ran to find the first aid box. Ruth accompanied me to my tent and I just asked them not to bother others as it was already late. They treated my wound and gave me some painkiller.After I became stable enough, Ruth asked curiously, "How did you get so deep wound?" I replied vaguely in my wobbly tone, "It was just a wild animal's attack. Nothing more. Don't worry, I am fine now. Thank you so much. You two are angels." Anna gently patted my head and said with care, "Its ok dear, you take some rest." There was just several scratches on my right arms, though the pain was fainted due to the high dose, but my heart was drowni
HazelIt was a busy day. I had a lots of classes one after another. So, my mind was quite diverted and I was in a normal mood. The last class was of Prof. Henry. From that day he didn't speak with me and I never took the initiative to talk first. As the bell rang, I was about to leave, when suddenly Henry asked me, "Hazel! Wait for a minute, I have something to say you." I nodded and replied, "Ok."When every student left, he came closer to me and said in an apologetic low voice, "Hazel, I am really sorry for that day, I was really not in the right condition due to alcohol, I am really sorry for crossing the line." I replied gently, "It's ok." He immediately replied with a satisfaction, "Thank you so much. It means a lot." After wishing him, good bye, I left for my work at Grand Oberoi Restaurant. That night again it was really hard to sleep. The memories were haunting me though I knew I loved to recall those memories, the person specially. It was almost a week, my gui
HazelMy heart drowned into disappointment, I asked Ruth, who was near my bed busy with her phone, "How I reached in my room?" as I surely knew Xander didn't know where I lived and it was more surprising that I was exactly in my own bed not in the bed of Ruth or Anna. So it was quite confusing and strange. Ruth replied, raising her one eyebrow, "didn't you remember? That handsome hunk of the trekking, Xander drove you to your room as you were totally passed out last night." I asked confusingly, "How did he find my room?" She casually replied, "He said you told him, you may be forgotten now. When we reached the hostel we found him sitting next to your bed. He seems like really into you." Anna was still asleep. I sighed a little but replied nothing. I was upset, I lost the opportunity to speak with him. But yet my heart was happy due to the previous meeting with him and melting in his warm hug. 'I don't know whether he was into me or not but no doubt, I love him no matter who h
HazelGranny immediately snatched it from my hand and told, "Why you are messing with old stuffs. I told you not to mess with those things." There was a fear in her face.I asked, "Why you always afraid to speak about mom? I know it is my mom." That was the first time I saw her picture though I knew my mom used to live at Valdez, but I didn't know her exact location. That was my hidden reason to choose Valdez for higher studies."Because I have my own causes. I already lost my daughter, now I only have you, I don't want to loss you," she replied with her watery eyes. "Granny, Did Mom love me?" I asked. Granny didn't expect such reply, she coming closer to me placed her hand gently over my head, and replied, "Of course. Your mom loved you the most. That's why she told me not to talk about her to you and I am only protecting you, Hazel. Your mom wants you to be safe and happy." I nodded my head and re
Hazel"Mother's letter!" I surprisingly uttered and added nodding my head in confusion, "You have mistaken, I have found just a blank old paper, nothing else." Then without wasting a second, I handed over the letter to her. I wanted to clear her misconception but her next words surprised me more. Rebeca claimed in her sweet low tone, "Great, you have found it at last. I was really waiting for it, for a long. It is blank because you are still not aware of your power. But no worries, your savior is here, my dear." I thought, 'What is she saying? She may be mad. My power? Which power?' But she broke my thoughts in the middle of my thoughts and grabbed my hand. Then she with a smirk in her face, took out a sharp knife from nowhere like magic and without any warning cut my palm. I was too dumbfounded to take any action. But she instantly hold my bloody palm over the blank paper and my blood dropped on that page. Instead of blood stain, the paper was started to fill with words soon
