'Enough?' Clementine shouted. 'I trusted you. I loved you my whole life and how did you pay me back for my years of devotion to you?''Mum, Dad!' the Lyncan king said, holding the both of them, trying to calm them. 'This is not the time, not the place for this. You shall both have the time to explain and listen to each other. There are other things to be done here!'They were still talking when Samuel announced that they had another visitor.They all turned to find, a young handsome man in his mid thirties, walking towards them, with a smile. 'Henry?' Spark mouthed. Henry, just like his mother was looking very healthy and not for the first time, Spark felt a knife twist inside of him. How could he have easily go en up on his family this way? If he had to fought for a while longer, stood by them just for a little while longer, maybe... just maybe they would never have been estranged.'You must be Dad', he said, stretching forth his arm towards Spark who took the offered hand in a very
A disturbance interrupted their happy reunion and they all eyes turned to the door.Samuel was trying to block the entrance with his body, to stop the intruders from coming in.'What is the ruckus all about, Samuel?' the Lyncan king asked.'Just the Palmers, forcing entry into your presence!' he responded.'Allow them in!' he ordered. He was angry at this show of disrespect. It seemed he was becoming too lenient with these people.'I thought I promised to get back to you with my decision about the release of your daughter from the dungeon as you have requested after I have spoken to my Luna?' he asked, clearly angry. 'She is the one who will decide the punishment your daughter will serve!''Lyncan king!' Amelia said, going down on her knees. 'I trust your judgement. I am only back because my husband has decided to leave me for his mistress after all I have gone through for him all these years, bringing up his bastard as my own child!''What do you mean?' Hector asked. 'Be more specifi
'Do not listen to this liar and home wrecker!' Amelia shouted. 'We asked for the reason you are here and why you want to take my husband completely from me now, not the bullshit take you are busy spinning!''Amelia, will you keep quiet and let's listen to her or do you want to take over the officiating of this case from me?''I'm sorry, Lyncan king!' Amelia said, looking daggers at Mildred.'Go on, Mildred but please make it brief, now!' the Lyncan king said.'Like I said, Amelia had other plans for me because she sent her goons to get rid of me!' Mildred, shouted, pointing at Amelia who opened her mouth to shout a denial but one look from the Lyncan king and she shut her mouth again without uttering a word. 'They beat me and I could feel myself fading from existence. They mistreated and manhandled me in alot of unimaginable ways and because of my weakened state, I couldn't summon my magic. But I managed to cough up a disappearing spell at the last minute and that was how I escaped be
'Mum, you are really awesome, you knew werewolves were prohibited from mingling with witches and vampires and yet you save one who was the two put in one person's, the Lyncan king said. 'And because of that singular act, you made a lifelong friend who saved you later!''Exactly, my son. Never look down on anyone and never ignore anyone who is in need of help!' Clementine advised.'Mildred, am I wrong to say you caused the fog that my father told me about? 'I did!' Mildred said. 'I saw iny crystal ball that she needed my help and I was happy to oblige!' she smiled. I also used my spells and portions on both of them and though it was not easy, I was finally able to cure them of their ailment. But my king, this is not the time for painful memories, they should be kept in the past where they belong', she said, smiling 'It is a time to make happy ones. Let's celebrate with these wonderful pups the Moon Goddess has blessed is with!' she said.'Its their birthday, not a funetal'.'You got
'Alexa, thank you for your help', Hector said, during dinner. 'I was able to meet with heads of the clans of witches and vampire'.'Did it go well?' she asked, trying to avoid looking at Henry. She had looked up twice now, only to find him staring at her and it was annoying.'It did', Hector answered. ' and they all agreed that was the tight decision!' Then looking round at all the faces at the table, he announced, excitedly like a little child, 'They are ready to end this feud as we are!''That's great news!' Clementine said. Spark nodded in approval. All smiled, their faces happyAndrew looked at Clementine and not for the first time, regretted listening to his father. He was very happy now about the pact the three species and clans were going to make publicly. If the witches and werewolves had been in good terms, then maybe, he would have sought help from one long ago and wouldn't have had to attempt killing his wife and son. He had tried that afternoon to speak to his wife. Clemen
'I wish to speak with you!' Alexa said to Hector after their meal and Mildred took the pups upstairs to their room to prepare them for bed. She enjoyed staying with them. It more than compensated for the time she missed with her own daughter Alexa.'Come into my study then!' he said, leading the way.'I am happy that everything went well with the meeting of the clan heads today and I pray for a successful Press Conference tomorrow', Alexa started. Hector nodded.Alexa chose her words carefully. ' I saw your parents walking the garden this afternoon and I hope they were able to put aside their differences and forge ahead', she said.'Thank you. I appreciate your good wishes. To tell the truth, I hope so too', he replied, sighing. 'I don't really blame mother for still being furious with him. I was too,with him, that is but I have decided to let it go. If I hadn't had support, who knows what I would have done to my own family in the name of upholding tradition and pleasing the kingdom!'
Wayne, Myles and Hector, the Lyncan king were all seated facing a group of reporters Hector's father the elder Lyncan Spark Harrison was also seated with them. The Lyncan king stood up to address the press.'Ladies and gentlemen of the press and indeed everyone here present', he started. 'I am happy to stand before you today to bring to your notice the recent reformations to our laws of coexistence with all species', he smiled at his audience who were focused on him, swallowing every word that might come out of his mouth.'With me today as you can see are, Wayne Farmer, the vampire lord', he introduced, gesturing towards Wayne who dipped his head, slightly in acknowledgment. 'and Myles Prescott, the great wizard and the heir of the witch's clan!' he continued. 'I believe that if dragons had not become extinct, I would have got their clan leader to join us here today', he joked and his audience laughed in appreciation.He paused to allow the laughter to die down before continuing. ' My
Alexa heaved a sigh when it was over. She hugged Wayne and then Myles. Hector had to hold himself in check. He had just announced a peaceful coexistence and was not going to violate it minutes after but he felt odd and angry seeing the way Alexa hugged her other Mayes. Why hadn't she rejected them? She should, shouldn't she? he thought and his wolf gave him the answer.'How can she, when you led her to believing it is just a contract between you? A contract that will expire in three years!' Flame said. 'You might think it is a long time but I assure you it is not as you will soon find out! And buddy, the time is ticking... tick, tick, tick!' he taunted.'Oh shut up!' Hector snapped as he watched Alexa walk their guests to their cars. Thank goodness the reporters had all be dispersed.'You have chosen a great husband for yourself, Alexa', Myles said, when Wayne excused himself, to speak with Clementine, Hector's mother. 'He must really loved you!''You are mistaken, we ate doing this f
