King Grimgor

The trial began, and the weight of the false accusations hung heavily in the air. Veronica stood strong, her head held high, despite the unjust accusations being thrown at her. The courtroom was filled with tension as the pack watched intently, their eyes darting between Veronica, my father, and me.

"We are gathered here today to bear witness to the trial of Veronica, the Luna of Ravenswood pack.

"Do you swear in the name of the moon goddess that you will say nothing but the truth to whatever question you are asked?" I asked, staring directly at Veronica.

I met her face. How those green eyes haunt me now.

"Yes. I do," she answers.

"And what do you plead?" I asked, tensed that she would accept being guilty. She was someone who would definitely jump into that.

"Not guilty," she said, to my surprise. An attempt to survive? This is the first time I've seen her make such an attempt.

As witness after witness testified against her, presenting manipulated evidence and false test

    VERONICAEverything fell into place just as I had envisioned, despite the tarnished reputation that now accompanied my name. I was determined to rectify that once I left this place. There was nothing more satisfying than isolating myself from everyone and abandoning my responsibilities as the Luna, allowing me to focus on organizing my intricate plan."Here you go, ma," Sam said, approaching me and handing over my bag, along with a pack of snacks."I never asked for snacks," I remarked, puzzled by the unexpected addition."The king sent them to you," he replied earnestly."The king? Why would he do that?" I inquired, perplexed by the gesture."Oh, I mean King Grimgor," Sam clarified.A surge of realization washed over me as I momentarily forgot that my husband is the king of Ravenswood instead of that old hag."Thank you. You can leave," I said while he bowed. SNF left that instant.I zipped the bag open and made my way beneath it to find the books I left there. My heart skipped a bit

    VERONICAI slowly opened my eyes, the dim light filtering through the small window of my cramped cell. Blinking away the remnants of sleep, I sat up and stretched my tired limbs, feeling the stiffness in my back from another restless night on the cold, hard bed. As my mind cleared, the realization of my imprisonment hit me once again, the weight of it settling heavily upon my shoulders.A metallic clank echoed through the narrow corridor outside, and my heart skipped a beat. I knew that sound all too well. It meant the routine had begun—the daily cycle of monotony and oppression that defined my existence. The familiar footsteps of the guards grew louder, accompanied by the jingling of keys, as they made their way down the corridor, stopping in front of my cell."Time to rise, prisoner!" one of the guards sneered, his voice laced with disdain. "Today is your lucky day. You get to exercise."I almost lost my cool. How could he address Luna so rudely? I ignored him. I didn't even have mu

    VERONICAOnce I noticed a steady eye monitoring us from afar, I dismissed everyone and ordered them to stretch their bodies back to the field.The rest of the day was so annoying and tiring. I was filled with anger, and the only question that seemed not to have an answer in my head was when and how I was going to go about this. We were walked back to our cell. especially by two guards with unfamiliar faces. I just wonder how many Grimgors are left out here for me.Everywhere was dark again. I got to my cell last night. The fuckin light is being fixed. I tried my best to calm my nerves and assure myself that nothing like that would repeat itself again. Even if it does, I wouldn't be afraid anymore.I lay in the hard bed with an empty, rumbling stomach. Now I know why those guys were trying to eat as much as they could because they wouldn't get any more food until the next day.I should have known better. I bit my lower lips from the inside. My stomach felt like I was having a heavy cra

    VERONICAI saw more men outside waiting patiently for us to arrive."Is that the one?" One of the men asked the man holding the knife about me."Yes. She is. Cute right?" He chuckled. "I thought she was more. If She is just a human, does she really deserve all of us coming here for her? One person could have been enough," another said mockingly. I couldn't see his face, but his eyes didn't glow like the other guy's that came inside. What was his name again?...Before I could gather how many they were, they twisted both of my hands backwards and tied them together with some kind of wire or something. I was sure that it wasn't a rope, but it burned painfully deep into my skin.I wanted to yell out because of the excruciating pain, but before I could, my mouth was covered with something I couldn't even tell what it was.One of them held my head, ducking and shoving me into a car. The reviving engine filled the car, and two other men came sitting side by side with me in their center. Two

    VERONICA"Are you in a hurry, miss?" A young man appeared before me. His attire gives him off as a wealthy man. He came in smiling brightly, like he had met an old friend."I am married, you dumbass. Mrs. and not Miss," I replied, trying again to climb the wall. I don't know why exactly I said that, but I guess because I was pissed.He shoved me down from where I wanted to climb and pinned me to the wall. He was impermissibly close, and I held my breath tight, avoiding his disappointingly beautiful scent."I do not care if you are married or not. If I want you, I will have you without Grimgor coming to your rescue. You should have known by now that he doesn't live or care for you". His words melted into my heart like wax. He has this cold and deep voice that, unfortunately, I like. Grimgor really doesn't care, but what? How the hell did he know Grimgor?"You know my husband?. How?" I couldn't help my curiosity as I whispered. There was no need to shout or talk loudly since his face w

    King Grimgor.The night was really long, and I felt really tired after waking up for no reason. Although I slept comfortably on the bed for the first time in a while, I checked my clock to notice that it was already past 7:00 a.m. I normally wake up before now.I freshened up and put on the royal robe before heading to dinner. I was already ten minutes late for breakfast.I sat on my chair and glanced at the empty one opposite, which was meant to be for Veronica. I like watching how she eats, perhaps because she eats so well and a lot.Heaving a sigh of relief, I dug into my food before the others started to eat; my father wasn't at the dining table. He has refused to dine with everyone since the day Veronica was imprisoned. Because he wanted more, I guess."Brother. I heard some nasty jokes," Ezra commented with a smirk. I looked to my side, where he sat. I hate it when he plays some stupid prank on me."Keep it to yourself," I said, continuing with my meal."What if it's about your

    EMILY'S POV. It didn't take much time before the news got to me that Veronica was missing. I didn't know exactly what to do, but I had to inform the king once I saw him.I could have checked if someone was spying on us the day she met with those other werewolves. Maybe the king got wind of it and ordered for her to be killed.I was nervous even though I knew she should have some magic to defend herself, so I heard she should, but what If she doesn't.I had to find King Grimgor. He needed to know about Veronica's disappearance immediately. I hurried through the corridors of the castle, my heart pounding with each step. The weight of the news burdened me, and I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease that settled deep within me.As I reached the grand hall, I spotted Prince Ezra engrossed in a conversation with someone, maybe a business associate or someone I don't give a fuck about. I couldn't wait until I saw his brother before I informed him.I approached him cautiously, careful no

    KING GRIMGOR'S POVIt's been ten years since I and Veronica have been together. Today was our wedding anniversary.Ten whooping years wasn't easy, but guess who made it easier, Veronica? No, not just twins; we also have another. Baby girl,. I guess we will call it a wrap.I always knew that Veronica was like a moon goddess sent to earth. Her powers were so great that everyone from different packs and clans came to seek her out.Josh stands in the garden holding a flower. He is so much like me. No. He was just me when I was much younger.He was incredibly smart. More than I was. He was already talking about meeting his wife and loving her more than I loved his mother.I doubt there is a greater love than the one I have for Veronica."What are you doing staring at your son, daddy? I thought I was your favorite?" Judy said. I wonder how long she was standing and staring at us both. The last I remembered, she was there with her brother, picking flowers in my mother's garden."Oh, my baby.

    Four years later.,"Judy!" I called my four-year-old girl. She ran as fast as she could and got to my room, only for her to withdraw.Yes, mummy," she answered, quietly seeing the mess she caused in my room."What the Fuck did you do to my room?" I asked. There is no need to be sure whether she was really the culprit. The expensive lipstick Grimgor got for me when he went to Italy was all over her face."Mom!" "Answer me." She looked at me like she would rather walk out than answer."You are using the F word, mommy," Judy said. I bit my lips from the inside. I could easily make a mistake in front of Josh, and he will let me be."Come here, bring your butt. You need some serious spanking!" I went towards her, but the little... (opps, I promised not to abuse her again)... Ran away for me to chase her.I did, and I was going to give her more than just a spank when I caught up with her.Judy knows the right direction to run.

    In a place we're they was nothing but darkness emerged two bright lights. Each light show brighter than the sun itself ."Damn. Where is that bloody fellow" Ezra muttered to himself looking around ad the whole vampires that gathered where seeking for a refuge to hide themselves away from the lights. "Where is he?. Your boss I mean" he said again with all seriousness. But got no response. It was weird for both him and sam that the vampire king didn't show up..Some men managed to pose for fight against them. "Drop your swords helpless fellow, yes I will kill you all but at least I wanted it to be a painless death" Ezra bragged. He haven't fought for a while though because his over protective brother would not want him to get hurt. But even with all that, he still wasn't so much pressured because he has always being as good as grimgor. The men still insisted on fighting even with the light that was almost burning their skin. Probably to buy time before the vampire king will come.

    The D-Day.Everyone was already prepared for the day. Even those who were aware of what was going on and those who were not aware all felt the absolute quietness in the palace."Are you ready?" The former king, Friedrich, asked his son, who was dressed in his royal kingship attire,"Yeah, I guess," Grimgor said with an assuring smile. At that moment, he was thinking about how Veronica would react to waking up without him beside her."Let's go. Then," Fridolf said, taking the lead. King Grimgor hesitated a while before following him steadily behind his back.As they made their way through the dimly lit corridors of the palace, the weight of the impending ritual hung heavily in the air. The torches along the walls flickered, casting eerie shadows that seemed to dance with every step they took. Both father and son were lost in their thoughts, contemplating the challenges that lay ahead.King Grimgor couldn't help but feel torn between his duty as the ruler of the kingdom and his personal

    King grimgor...Day one. One more day, and everything will end. Just that I might end with it also.Today, everything has been put in place. Our plans were being perfected, ready to be unleashed.I had to spend the whole day with my wife. That's why I made it free.I lifted the dumbbell weight for the hundredth time. I breathed heavily before dropping it to the side."What are you staring at, sunshine?" I watched Veronica lose herself in thought with her hands on her jaw.I have dragged her to work out with me.Dragged out, meaning that I had to carry her out of the bed before she ended up here. She answered sluggishly the first two times I called her to come to me, but the third time, I didn't wait for her to respond. I just lifted her from the bed and made her wear sportswear."How does this seem so easy to you?" She asked after a long while."Easy? Not really so easy, but since I made up my mind to carry it, I did."Why don't I try? . Okay. Let me make up my mind." Veronica closed

    Day one..Author's pov....There was news going around. Unfortunately, it had to skip King Grimgor and his ally. It was intentional.I overheard Viktor saying something to Grimgor's father. I was his secretary, so I know a lot more than I should. I never intended to eavesdrop.Never! But it just happens.Okay, today I was about to get a call across to the former king, King Ferdinand, when he asked me to stand outside and wait a little while."Do you suggest I stay put and watch all this, Viktor? What if things go wrong and my son ends up dead?" I was just outside when I heard"No, not really, my king. I trust your son, and he is not used to failing, so this won't be a lot for him like you think," a voice responded, whom I suppose to be Viktor.I know at this point I am supposed to walk out, but...I didn't walk out.Don't get me wrong, please. I don't eavesdrop on my seniors; I just couldn't walk out on such an interesting topic.I fvcking couldn't."You know how Aradumus could be?

    KING GRIMGOR.Day Two..Two days for the ritual, and we are making just a little progress. I am worried after all this, and I just hope I do survive to take care of Veronica and our child."Your majesty, I found someone already." These words were soothing. We didn't want to invite an external body into our affairs, and it made it difficult to find someone except my brother and Sam, who volunteered. I don't want to lose any of them at all."Perfect. " I heaved a sigh of relief. "Now all we have to worry about is the plan being successful", I said while swinging my sword in the air.I had to get myself ready too. I don't know how he himself is getting ready for all of this, but either I win or we both end up dead."Won't you at least rest a little, my king? You have a wife to look after," Sam suggested. I stared at him, knowing fully well that he doesn't understand the weight of this whole thing."No rest for winners; I never planned to lose," I said. Lodging my sword on him, which he a

    VERONICAI wouldn't just easily believe that the news I heard was about me, I cannot just be pregnant. It should be a good news after all I am married and my father in law has used the fact that I have no child yet as a base to taunt me.."I lay down, touching my stomach and wondering if my baby could hear me. Now, I just have to be sensitive of words I say so it would not feel that I love him less. Yes him, I actually want a baby boy. I never had a brother although not a sister as well. I don't really know how things will turn out next. "You should get going. Don't delay your work because of your pregnant wife. At least now that my sickness has being defined. It should be a normal thing for us" I said to grimgor. He needed a way to tackle his issue with the vampire king and I needed some space to tackle mine with his father. He seemed to be happier after hearing the news. His mouth refused to close properly as he just smirks now and then probably fantasying holding our baby's ha
