The beats of drums could be heard loudly as the giant metal door to the King's dining hall was pulled open by two hefty guards revealing King Kane Of Dakota and his beautiful daughter beside him.

Across the room was King Modrich and his family standing around the rectangular wooden table that had varieties of meals and there were maids pushing buffets that carried fleshy meats.

" Welcome to my Kingdom. Kane Lodragon, The Fierce " He hailed with arms wide open as the two stepped into the hall.

"It's an honor Modrich Hendrixson. Your people are welcoming" King Kane replied as he rolled his eyes on the painted wall.

"We are glad to have you here, they all want peace too, between our kingdoms"

"Well. There'll be peace now, my gorgeous Queen couldn't make it, she had a meeting with the Queens of the South but here's my daughter, you've met her before"

"Of course. Aurora, she's big now and beautiful, little the last time we met"

"Before the war?" King Kane inquired.

"That's right but I guess we'll be seeing ourselves more frequently now. Pardon my negligence, meet my family. Aurora, I believe you've met the queen during her visit to Dakota yesterday, here's my daughter, Mia Hendrixson..."

Mia threw her face away as she picked her nails while Aurora cared less, and gazed instead at the chandelier that was swinging graciously.

" Ladies, they'll figure things out with time " Kane Lodragon broke the silence and the Queen laughed with him.

"That's right"

"And here's my son, Zayn Hendrixson, you must have heard of him" He smiled placing his hand on the shoulder of the prince whose eyes were drooling over her.

Zayn didn't waste time as he approached and took her right hand, he kissed it gently and let it down.

"It's an honor to meet you. I will be damn if I fail to say.... you're fair to look upon"

He forced out a soft smile and Mia scoffed gently.

"You have a wonderful son here, Modrich"

"Zayn is always wonderful. You'll grow fond of him really soon "

"I think I am already" He revealed and they laughed.

"Alright..... Without wasting time, I guess our children will get to know each other better as time goes, let's get to satisfy our belly at this moment and then the celebration commences, It has commenced already "

"The people of your kingdom seems to be happier, let's get to it then"

Shortly after... the King's hall at the palace was filled with so many people and more still pumping through the open doors in their numbers. The band of drummers weren't relenting as they struck their drums as hard as they could.

A dark skinned man who was dressed in a wolf clothing climbed up the podium and raised his hands. The drummers halt their activities and silence ensured among the people of the kingdom who were in the hall.

"Today is a great day" He began.

"Today is the day that two rival kingdom come together as one for a common goal. Today is the day, the day that two powerful families strive for one goal. Today, the great Kingdom of Baridoki and Dakota shall be on common ground" The announcer yelled and there was a loud cheer from the crowd in the place.

"Alright, silence" He took a deep breath and raised his hands.

"And now I bring to you... The Royal family of Baridoki and Dakota" He let out his lungs with the trumpeters who blew their instrument as melodious as they could.

The giant metal gate behind him pulled opened revealing the two kings and behind them was their family.

"The powerful family" He let out and the drummers resumed their activities almost immediately rhyming with the trumpeters who hadn't had a break from their blow yet.

He tightened his fist and they all halt their duty at same thing bringing silence to the hall.

"My King" The announcer bowed gently before them with his left hand lowered to his stomach.

"It's just there" King Modrich raised his hand to the royal seats that were in front of the crowd.

Guards in black outfits appeared from behind the podium and let them away to the seats.

Aurora seems to be whispering to her father's ear and Zayn's were doing a great job at picking each sentence.

"I don't want to be on the royal seat" He could hear her say.

"You have to be ... this is a reunion, don't play stupid" King Kane replied rather sharply.

"I'm not. I just want to be normal with the crowd"

"You don't know this people yet " He came to halt and she stopped too.

The Family of Hendrixson was far gone to the seats already except Zayn who was lagging behind to eavesdrop.

"You talked about reunion father but you don't trust them. I'm not staying bored behind you, I'm sitting there" She points to the crowd whose attention seems to be focused on them now.

"Aurora, are you alright?" Zayn intervened and he walked up to them.

"Yeah, she's fine, she..."

He paused and shook his head.

"Is it safe for her among the crowd?"

"Do not worry yourself King Kane. I'll keep her close and have the royal guards clear the area a bit"

"Are you sure?"

"Trust me... I'll keep her safe"

"Very well... You stay with him, don't stray away"

She didn't reply him and instead she pulled away immediately.

"Trust me" Zayn assured him the third time and followed after with a call.

"Aurora! "

King Kane let out a deep breath and moved to join King Modrich family at the royal seat.

"Hey, Aurora" Zayn whispered and he finally laid hold of her hand.

She broke from of his grip quickly but he caught her again.

"Hey... Don't be stubborn, I want the same thing as you"

"You know nothing about me"

"I don't. Just listen to me, I'm your guardian now"

"Guardian?, I don't need protection"

"Alright... wrong choice of words, do whatever pleases you, I'm right behind you"

"I was never going to listen to you," She replied climbing up the stairs to the upper gallery in hall where a few number of spectators where seated.

He followed closely like a lamb led to slaughter until she finally sat at the front row.

Zayn beckoned at one of the guards and made to whisper into his ear but she interrupted.

"You're not sending anyone out of here, they stay"

The prince let out a soft smile and dismissed the royal guard who returned to his position immediately.

"How did you know what I was going to do?"

"Foolish people like you listen to my father "

He smirked and sat beside her.

"I wasn't listening to him. Just trying to make sure you're safe"

"I don't need protection"

"Fine. I see you love dominance like an Alpha King or should I say Queen, but you're not even an Alpha"

She caught him by his royal garment firmly and growled gently letting him see her sharp fangs.

"Aggressive. You attacked, I defended... we wouldn't want to draw much attention, do we?" He looked down to see King Kane who was gazing at them from below.

She let go of him and sat properly with a bitter face.

"I don't like him either. Believeshe's controlling, my father loves peace but you see, I don't even want the war to end"

"Your father is weak" She cursed gently.

"I won't attack this time. I'll do better when I become the King" He adjusted his garment.

"Alpha King?... All I see is a coward"

"Second blow at me, you're coming hot" She didn't reply as she was focused at the podium downward.

Dancers were now having a display in wolf clothing and the drummers beat their drums in rhythm to the dance.

"You love dancing?"

"I know you're striving to woe me prince Zayn. Don't waste your strength"

"You don't know me. You got a mate?"

"You got awful dancers down here" She dodged his question.

"That's a no. I can see it in your eyes"

"And neither do you have one. Don't make it a big deal"

"A difference... I don't need one, seems like you need one"

"Are you applying to fill the blank?"

"We can fake it but at the end we get exposed. I'm the heir of this kingdom, taking you as my mate will be confirmed through rites, damn rituals "

"I wasn't volunteering. Don't even have the imagination" She told him.

"Now I can't get it off my head. Maybe you're right, I'm here to woe you" He adjusted his garment one more time.

"You're seriously not embarrassed"

"I just got a slap from Queen Mother this morning for bringing two humans into the palace. What's there to be embarrassed of anymore? "

"You seriously can't keep secrets to yourself"

"Fine" He inhaled heavily and shut his eyes with leg crossed.

"You got slapped?"

"I'm keeping the secrets to myself now" He replied.

"Then I'm out of here" She made to rise to her feet but he held her down quickly.

"So aggressive... damn! "

"I believe my stay here is over"

"You want fun. don't you?, sitting at the royal seats is boring, you get to laugh at jokes that are not close to been funny or worse, you don't talk to anyone"

"I guess you're not dumb after all"

"I'm dumb and clever. It depends on the way you see me"

"Still processing that in my brain"

"If I'm going to tell you things... this wolves need to be out of here, they shouldn't hear"

"Are your secrets so grievous?"

"If there's something more than grievous. Pick it" He signaled to the guard to lead the spectators around to another gallery while she rolled her eyes.

As soon as they were out, he ordered the guard to leave too and they were alone at that gallery.

"I heard rumors about your sister who was banished" He began as she fixed her gaze on King Kane who was occasionally glancing at them.

"Can they hear us?"

"The sound of the drums disrupt the hearing ability of wolves down there. It will take total focus on us to hear"

    "I'm not telling you our kingdom's secret... not until you tell me yours" "You might want to tell yours first, mine is gonna throw you off balance" "I anticipate for it then" She let out a deep breath and raised her head. "Yes. My sister was banished, she was the first child of my father, an Alpha but wasn't the heir to the throne according to the law, a female child don't rule the wolf kingdom. All she wanted was to change that rule of law, she was becoming an opposition and so he had a talk with the elders and they cast her out of the kingdom for contempt against the throne""That's...." "He never loved her from the start, hated the fact that she wasn't a male child to take over the throne and that was just an excuse to dispose her" "Was she really an opposition?" "I can't say but she's unpredictable.

    "This bed is big and I can't help but imagine why?" "Due to the weakness of humans, I prefer to take on not less then two or three" "You prey on their weakness because you can't handle a wolf" "I was going to say same for you, you want to be the dominant one" He whispered into her face."That's where you get it wrong, I can take on wolves, an alpha king will not even be an exception" She drew close and without warning grabbed him by the crotch. He gasped gently and raised his head to her. "Maybe I meant, an alpha prince " She squeezed his meat tightly causing him to groan as his eyes vibrated. "What are you do.... ing?" His voice cracked. "Oh Zayn, don't pretend like you don't want this, I know you are trying to get under my gown back there, naughty Prince " She whispered gently into his right ear and let go of clutched organ after biting her lower lip."No, you're the naughty Princess Aurora" He put his hand around her waist and he looked into her ocean blue eyes.

We'll deal with messages back at Dakota" He was a man who always attended to messages as best as he could but not when he's outside his kingdom to negotiate peace terms. "I think it's important your majesty. It's about Aurora"The moment he heard the name of his daughter. King Kane of Dakota raised his head to the gallery but she wasn't there, neither was Prince Zayn.

    There was their king Kane and Modrich standing before them with the guards behind. King Kane's jaw dropped in shock as his daughter quickly scurry away from Zayn and covered herself with the duvet. His fears were confirmed, how dare he lay with the daughter he was protecting from men? Zayn on his path was frozen at that spot, this was the last thing he ever expected. He could see the disappointment on the face of his father who was too shocked to speak. King Modrich never believed his son would go to this extent. He trusted him and the last thing he expected was finding him unclad with their guest, not an ordinary guest, but the daughter of King Kane of Dakota Kingdom. "This was your plot all along" Aurora's father yelled loudly and turned to her as she looked down. He ordered with all fury written on his face "Pack your things. We're leaving" "We can resolve this" King Modrich finally found his voice. What was done was done but he hoped to fix it for the sake of the peace treat

    Zayn was awakened that morning by the voice of August. His guard sounded outside his chamber. He dragged his feet lazily from the bed to the metal door which he opened."My Prince," he bowed gently and the prince beckoned at him to come in."Why are you here?" Zayn inquired as he grabbed a bottle of wine and poured the content into a cup. He didn't know when he slept off after Mia left last night but he was sure August must have come around to see him sleeping. There was no way he haven't heard the trending rumours yet, maybe he should stop referring to it as rumour since it was true, 100%."I'm your guard, My Prince""I guess I forget that every day of my life" He gulped in the wine and let down an empty cup. It was true though, the two had grown fond of each other that he(Zayn) sometimes forget that August was a guard sworn to protect the prince with his life. The prince would sometimes joke that he was the one protecting August instead and they would over it. He was much like a br

    ....Present.... Zayn managed to stagger to his feet and leaned against a close tree so he wouldn't fall. He takes off his torn shirt revealing his broad chest and perfect abs. "Wolves existing in what they call a human world, shocking!" He let out the statement in pain and rage. Slowly, he wiped off the blood from on his stomach with the cloth and there was a fresh wound wide open on his skin. "Damn it!" Zayn cursed under his breath and made to tie but paused hearing incoming footsteps. He wondered if the lady alpha had changed her mind and was returning to kill him. "Who's there?" A soft feminine voice sounded and he turned to see a blonde appear at the scene with a shotgun she aimed at him. He exhaled in relief seeing that it was not the one he expected. The wounded alpha was just too weak to engage in another fight but whoever this stranger was, he believed she wouldn't blow off his head with the weapon she was wielding. "Easy..." He spoke but that did not make her let down

    The claim was that Zayn was responsible, he had killed the king with a silver dagger that no one knew where he got in from and so was imprisoned for later judgment. She(Queen Rita) would have come a long time ago but needed to clear her head first and attend to royal issues since the council of elders had decided that she become the queen regent until a new decision is reached. Queen Rita after a deep silence spoke "Leave us" There was a surprised look on the face of the guard who decided to question her authority without thinking twice "Your grace, I was instructed not to take my eyes off him" She wasn't the queen anymore as the king was dead and he was arrogant enough to... "I guess you've been holed up down here for long to know what goes on in the kingdom. I'm the queen regent and if you dare raise your voice at me again... Your head will be hung on a spike before evening. I promise" There was intense anger in her eyes which you didn't need to see because it could also be n

    "Mother, this supports my claim about Silas being responsible. Ivory has never run from the palace, she's a loyal omega. He definitely killed her and hid her body to clear traces that lead to him"Rita paused for a moment before speaking "Do you have any other witness to speak for you?" "No one. August knows I wouldn't do such but just as you said mother. It's not about people knowing me, It's the pieces of evidence and they're all against me right now" He was pained that he fell into his uncle's trap that easily. Silas plotting the king's murder was something he never thought about once. he was a loyal friend and brother of the king. "Mother, can you talk to the council on his behalf before the trial tomorrow? explain things to them, " Mia asked knowing that it wasn't possible but she just wanted to help her brother. "You know I can't, Mia. No one is allowed to talk to the council about the trial before it commences, only after. Whatever needs to be talked about will be done durin

    The double wooden door of the kingdom hall was pulled open by the omega guards at the entrance revealing Allegra who had a white veil over her head.She was dressed in a Queen's apparel and is led down the aisle by no other person than her very father, Cain; who had his royal garment on him as well. This was a day she never imagined would come. Lead down the aisle by the very man who banished and tried to have her killed, that was years ago. Just a day after the battle of Baridoki, he arrived with his mother. Allegra's grandmother. To apologize and ask for forgiveness for being damn ignorant and letting himself be deceived by the elders of his kingdom. The only reason she accepted was the truth he brought.She was tied to the throne by the spirits that be already and when he(Cain) dies, she becomes the queen of Dakota but now that she is marked, her kingdom becomes her mate's.Meaning, the two kingdoms finally get to merge as one.Not an alliance.

    The proud smirk at the corners of Aurora's lips widened as she clarified. "Come to think of it, only a foolish woman would make a man come in her when she's unsure of her time of the month. I know the time I should avoid fvcking and also the time I should fvck like the world is coming to an end. I told August that, so when he finds you alive, it would motivate you to return. I got a child, I got a baby, I want to see my baby. Grandmother normally says a father's love for a child is amazing but not my father's. He's the opposite "Allegra's jaw dropped and she only managed to say. "You're lying, ain't you? You're trying to make me feel happy like you always do. We would take responsibility for your child, Aurora"She scoffed and shook her head. "Maybe my future child. I'm serious, I got no little bastard dwelling within me. Take a look for yourselves.." Aurora tugged her cloth upwards revealing her stomach and Allegra was quick to cover Zayn's eyes with her hand.Aurora's stomach look

I will leave to celebrate and then I will address the kingdom proper by tomorrow"'Can I pass Silas' sentence now? ' His mother's voice sounded and he nodded without turning back."One more thing, the one who killed our king and framed me for it to become the fake king will pass through judgment, now" He announced to them and the noise from the wolves increased as they chant with one voice. "Long live the king!"He took a step back and Rita took his position to address the wolves of the kingdom. Silence ensured for a moment when they saw her. She had spoken with Elder Maddox before Zayn showed up and he told the people who now loved her for the things she had done for the family and the kingdom. Nothing spread faster than rumours and gossip in the kingdom of Baridoki. They moved at the speed of li

I have an army coming through the gates, join forces with them""Your command we will execute, Your Grace"Without further warning, the warriors troop away from the hallway to outside the palace, leaving twenty behind to rush the warriors with Daman.Daman stepped away from his wolves to face Zayn who stared him dead in the eyes.The Doharis in the throne room was overwhelmed and subdued in no time, stabbing their claws into the thrusts of the enemies before leaving to join the others outside.Zayn turned to his mother and nodded. "Leave Mother, this is not something you would want to see"The elders and the King's guard quickly helped to escort Rita out of the palace room."I'm impressed by your aura" Daman cleared his throat as he moved slowly towards Zayn with his hands behind him."I'm not here to

    A black hole appeared on the roof of the palace and Zayn stepped out with Kimberly behind him.They went low and crawled to the end to see the warriors of Doharis arranged up in various lines to form several squares of them.He was careful not to stretch longer and draw their attention to him.Zayn breathed out and turned to Kimberly. "You see this? Take the message to Allegra. She begins marching our people to the kingdom. I'll have the warriors join the fight"She asked him calmly, "Are you sure about this?""Is the only way. I would have wanted to help with the fighting and end all this in the twinkle of an eye but the sudden appearance of a witch would raise questions from other kingdoms and they'll fear Baridoki might use the witch to conquer kingdoms.
