Chapter 4

Zeidan proceeded towards the palace where from afar, one could see the huge throne covered in a red velvet texture. On each side of the throne, two golden wolf statues are placed.

He walked in majestically, ignoring the annoying growls of the wolves on his sides as he walked past them to the Alpha who sat on the throne in his human form.

"Who do we have here?" Styx's deep voice seared through the throne room, causing Zeidan to clench his fists harder.

He has silver hair that was so long it touched his shoulder. His beards were a mixture of silver and black as they barely left space for his tiny mouth.

As he smiled, the others could make out his brown teeth with slightly longer incisors. He looked like he was six feet tall with broad shoulders and chest. A ruthless feature for a ruthless Alpha.

When he got closer to the throne, a few feet away from it, he bowed slightly.

"I have come to see your Majesty." He informed, his dark gaze sweeping across the Wolves who stare at him intently.

"This doesn't look like a pleasant visit, King Zeidan of the Vampire city. Come now to the courtroom while we talk about what is bothering you," Styx laughed hardly much to the vampire's distaste as he rose from his throne, his bulging stomach protruding from his red robe.

"Follow me," Zeidan asked his men to wait for him outside while he followed, and then he disappeared into the room just behind the throne.

"Grrrrr!" A grey-colored wolf growled at the men who frowned.

Wikh stepped forward and like lightning, his face changed into a horrible monster with half his face rotten and fangs as long as a needle. His eyes are now black and his head full of smoke.

The wolves whined and retreated. Wikh transformed back into a human and adjusted his coat.

"Next time, learn your manners," he scoffed and focused on the room through which Zeidan had gone through, his gaze darker.

Luana strode across the corridor, scanning the whole place. She walked past some staff who were busy cleaning the place, while some were in charge of guarding the place.

She walked up to a room with a large and heavy metallic door. Something looked off about it and she wondered what was inside it.

Looking around, she moved closer and saw a lock just at the center which means opening it required a passcode.

She tried numerous times but didn't get it. She gave up after many trials and walked back to her room where she watched the breeze play with the grasses. She then remembered her night with Zeidan before his trip to the South Jungle.

He had come inside the room at exactly midnight looking tired but still handsome as before. She didn't look bad herself as she was wearing her lingerie and had just taken a shower and washed her hair with strawberry shampoos.

She had spread different scented flowers over the bed. Zeidan had smiled with amusement written over his face. He walked up to her on the bed, his face resting on her neck as he perceived her hair. He was lost in the softness and sweet smell. But he felt so tired.

"What do you say we make of this night?" Luana inquired as she brought up his face to meet hers, a wet smile playing on her lips.

"Whatever her ladyship pleases." He was aroused already and he couldn't wait to penetrate his soon-to-be Queen.

Tearing off his shirt, he pulled her legs so she was laying on her back. With his index finger, he trailed her thighs up to her core and played with it for a moment. He allowed her to savor each moment with her moans of pleasure.

"What do you feel?" She asked him as he trailed kisses on her neck causing her to arch her back to fit into his body.

"Nothing yet" she heard him reply but she couldn't tell if it was a lie or it was the truth. But there was only one way to find out.

She pushed him gently until he was laying on the bed and she was on him. Sitting comfortably on his hips, she trailed kisses all over his chest and face. Moments into the caress, they were both over the roof as she removed whatever was left of her clothing, and he did the same. Together they moved in unison, feeling their skin joined together. But throughout their lovemaking, if that's what she can call it, she felt like she did all the work.

Back to reality, she bit her fingers and wondered if this is it. She found love after several failed attempts. The breeze played with her hair and a few strands cover her eyes as she flashed back to many of her breakups with human men who thought she was too weird.

Then, when she thought it was time to give up on love, she found the right one. She will make sure to hold Zeidan tightly so as not to lose him.

Remembering the night again, she jerked up as she remembered Zeidan telling her the code to the room.

"...it's the name of someone that I can never forget..."

She ran to the room again and typed the word "Hail" and the door clicked open, much to her amazement.

Walking in, she was surprised at the number of technology it withheld. But amidst the whole mess, something green and shiny lay in the middle of the room on a rock. Its light illuminated the room.

As she moved close to it, she hit her right foot on an object. Looking down she picked up a pink little plastic with a few pills inside it.

Zeidan never mentioned being on any medication, she thought. However, she thought it best to keep it. Swiftly, she moved out of the room, locking the door behind her.

Who has been to the Onyx room? It's time to find out.
