He stared at me coldly, I was about saying something when he interrupted me.
" I already have a solution to this matter, I just want to discuss it with you before it is brought here."
Everybody was shocked, when the king suddenly said that, including me, I was shocked to my bones. ' did he just say, he have a solution to this.'
The elders exchanged looks of douth, even she was surprised by his response, she didn't expect him to suddenly say that, is he being serious right now cause she is beginning to douth his sanity, what on earth is he thinking of doing right now, she decided to follow him to talk privately as he said before he spouts out more unexplainable things from his mouth.
" your majesty, we can go now, please".
" good, I thought you were too busy to go out, is good that you reconsidered".
He replied sarcastically, and turned to the elder.
" the meeting is over, I will let you know what my decision is after the chat with the witch."
My face darkened after I heard what he said, he knows I hate being called a witch, but he always does that just to see my annoyed expression. I glared at him angrily, and he smirks enjoying or should I say happy at my annoyed expression.
" yes your majesty, we shall depart and wait for your decision, we are in no rush".
The elders responded reluctantly, they wanted to be part of the discussion so badly but they have no choice but to leave, when they were still contemplating whether to keep pursading his majesty to let them stay, a royal guard suddenly bartender in.
" hail to the great king."
The royal guard called max saluted and informed the king.
" Your majesty, Princess Brianna request an audience".
"Not now, am in no mood to respond to her, Tell her to leave, I will come to her chamber to see her later after am done here, we are in the center of a very important discussion regarding the welfare of this kingdom and wouldn't do any good if she just barged in like that."
......the elders were dumfounded, the king has never outrightly reject granting his younger sister an audience no matter the kind of heated discussion they were discussing, he always leaves whatever his is doing whenever his sister is looking for him. They couldn't help but wonder what came over the king, they were so sure it is not about the news the priestess brought this morning because they have had worst cases, so what's happening, not only that the king has been acting strange since the beginning of the meeting, the way he talks suddenly changed overnight, they didn't know what made him this way, now they thought about it, it should be last night when he went outside the kingdom together with the high priestess, at the thought of it, they all turned towards the high priestess for explanation for his majesty sudden change of attitude since she was the last person that was with him.
She rolled her eye inwardly, she wasn't affected by their curious gaze, she ignored them and stared straight into his eyes, she knew what made him like this, but she is not gonna spill it now, not until they discussed it properly, she wondered why he can't just accept it, is she that irritating. At the thought of it, she signed inwardly.' I really need to get this out of my Head'. She was still lost in thought, when the king authoritative, yet charming voice broke her out of her trance state.
"What are you still doing here, didn't you hear what I just said, or do you want me to say it in another way".
The alpha glared dangerously at the guard who was already trembling on the floor.
He stammered out of fear for what the alpha just said, nobody wants to be at the receiving end of his rage.
" What did you just say"
The alpha asked with threat laced with his voice,
"Your majesty"
I saw that the guard was lost for words and I decided to intervene.
" Your majesty, I don't think we have the time for this, I suggest you calm down, please"
"Calm down? Okay. After calming down, what do you suggest I do, dear witch, since you are so intelligent".
He replied back at me, I stared at him furiously, unable to refute.
"Have it gotten to the point where you no longer take me serious again, am the f**king alpha, not you, whatever I say stands."
After venting out at me, he turned to the max (the guard) who was already trembling on the floor under his furious gaze.
"Leave now before I separate your neck from your body".
After speaking, the royal guard left hurriedly, thanking the moon goddess for saving him from the angry wolf king, before he remembered something, then he turned back and kept on the floor. She understood him, he was the princess personal guard so the princess must have threatened him not to come back without the king accepting to see her, but what she couldn't understand is why the alpha was this angry, his words just now shocked both her and the elders, what came over him, her thoughts lingered on what transpired between them last night last night and she frowned, she decided not to think about it before she succumbs to the sadness that is about covering her, she thought of it and said,

°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° PREVIOUSLYThe voice of the elders calling my name repeatedly brought me out of my trance state. I looked at them who were looking at me with a worried expression on their faces, I turned to look at the king who just stared back at me." are you okay, Catori"Mato (the alpha beta)i asked with concern."She is seeing them".He looked back at me confused by my choice of words."Who is seeing whom""The princess""Who is she seeing"This time it was the king that asked at the mention of the princess." The princess is seeing a munezime monster""What""What"Both the king and the elders shouted at the same time with voices that is laced with shock and panic."What do you mean"Beta Mato asked."Just now, I wanted an illusional vision, I saw the princess with a munezine monster, she was smiling at him happily, they seem like they are in love"."That's impossible, the princess can't possibly have contact with them"Before I could say anything, Elder Wiy
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°PREVIOUSLY"Do you expect me to answer that Nahele, cause I don't see the reason why I should, but I will....."He looked at me for what felt like eternity to me, I also kept shaking my head to him, signaling him not to say it, but he continued nevertheless."I will satisfy your curiosity today, my mate is ....... A WITCH, the high priestess Catori, who is standing before you here." He said with hurt in his eyes and voice, why was he hurt, why does it feel like this whole thing is not what is seem like on the surface, was he lying to me, did I do something that hurt him.°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°All the elders has a shocked expression on their faces, they all felt like their world is crumbling. ' no, this can't be true, the moon goddess can't just bestow this kingdom with a witch Queen, they haven't done anything that would warrant her rapt, why were they being punished'. All the the elders thought, Elder Nahele was the first to break the
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°PREVIOUSLY"Just get to the point please, why do you call me out here alone"I interrupted him when he was about to say something unrelated, something that can make me get emotional, and that is the last thing I want right now, I don't want him to know that this is affecting me, even though am dying silently, I want him to know that if he don't want me, am not going to kneel and row on the floor for him to accept me back, I can never do that. Am beginning to get upset with him, I don't know what came over him, what happened for him to be like this, but we were once lovers, can't he consider that."I want to send a few foot soldiers and some captured vampires to the front line, I think they will be able to hold them back till we draft out a plan to deal with that vampire prince."His voice brought me back to reality and was shocked when he mentioned captured vampires.°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°"When did you capture the vampires, your majesty
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° PREVIOUSLYwhat am I even doing, am supposed to be thinking of setting the issue at hand though I doubt it something to think about, instead of thinking about her. I wonder how she is doing right now, is she okay, is she hurt, is she still crying, I should not have left her there like that' so many mirade of emotions running through me..ahhhhhhh why am I suddenly thinking about her again, at this rate I might go nuts. I need to distract my self from this, and there is no better way to go about it than going hunting, with that I shifted to my wolf and ran into the forest, running to the kingdom boundary where the soldiers have set up their camp. I ran through the forest searching for the first unlucky prey to appear. My thoughts drifted to the upcoming war, I still find it difficult to believe that those rogues that left my park have formed a new park which is normal, but doing so without informing me is abnormal, and they had also joine
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°PREVIOUSLY"Were you even listening to me""Of course I was, you were saying something about me killing people right, how about I start with you"I replied sarcastically, I am getting tired of his never ending questions."No no no, please I still value my life, so please spare me, oh great King of the Lycans."He answered joking but with a serious face that if you don't know him before, you might fall for his trick. I rolled my eyes at him, not at all in the mood of his drama.°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°"Alex, what is the matter with you, you don't look so good, what happened, am serious of what I said just now, you look really scary and intimidating when you were addressing us back there at the gate, I must say, you sacred the shit out of jet, you know how he fears you after that incident that happened last time, what is the matter with you, these days you are always moody, what really happened that got you behaving like this.""It is nothin
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° PREVIOUSLY"Who's there"I shouted, but everywhere was as quiet as how it used to be. I was about to give up and go to the palace and search for her, when I heard a sound from one of the trees at the far end of the forest, I rushed to the tree to find out when made that noise, on getting there I noticed something weird about the tree, I took a step closer to it, then I noticed that the tree was actually glowing, it started glowing brightly that I had to take a step back, a very strong power radiated from it, which has me shocked, how could this tree be here and I didn't notice it, how could it be.°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°I moved closer to the tree again and touched it, when did this tree appear here, I touched the tree again and felt some sort of connection to it, this is strange, this is my first time seeing this tree, so I don't understand why am suddenly feeling somewhat connected to the tree, and I also heard my sister's
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° PREVIOUSLYOn a closer look, I recognized the building, it was the home of the ancient witches that lived in the kingdom during the reign of my great grand father's reign, they were banned from the kingdom during my grandfather's reign and they relocated to the witch kingdom where they still reside till date. I didn't care to find out the reason they were banned from the kingdom, I didn't know this building still exist, I thought they were destroyed back then."What are we doing here, why do you bring me here"°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°I asked her, cause i don't know why she will suddenly bring me here when am supposed to be searching for my sister, though I don't find it strange she knew about this place because she is also a witch. So she should know what she is doing.°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° PRIESTESS CATORI POVI ignored his question, he didn't know the impact of what he just did, I saw his outstretched hand w
