Chapter 1a

Tens of thousands years ago, one discover something that shock the realities of the world...

It lead the nation to a great change; affects throughout the world, the change brought a new beginning. 

The beginning of the curse...

"This has to stop," a voice of a woman says, gentle rubbing the crystalize ball that twinkling about. She was place in the dark, only her voice reach the every corner of the room. 

"Tell me," a voice of man response, his voice gentle. Setting across the high-level throne that shone with bizzare gold, his lips parted as his eyes shone with strange light. "What it is you wish to conquer?"

"The fate of a thousands Alphas is at risk," the woman said in a hurry, as if no time to even tell her wishes. "Your fate especially," she added with a pained in her voice. Her eyes bluish as it shine together with the crystal ball she stop rubbing, but spin about on its own.

Her expression soften, spotted the expression of the young man that calmly sat blankly at her side. 

"You thinking deeply," the man in the throne said, abandoned the idea of conquering something for the woman hidden in the dark side of the room. "But if your overthinking cause by them, you shall not worry. I am here for you..." His eyes softly flickered, brimming with emotions that unique for the woman. "I'm always here...for you," he added when the woman fell to silent, and his eyes strangely thorn into pain. But he force a smile, said with undeniably sincerity, "Whatever happens, I'll makes sure... Nothing will destroy the Alphas."

The woman can only look away. She can felt the sincerity of the voice, but she deeply shaken and confuse. But she reminded who the person she dealing with, and put away the emotions that sway her. 

"Love..." she thought, looking back to the throne. "Is it enough for you to abandon the order of this world?"

Her face darkened, she know the answer. She saw everything. How he value order more than anything in this world. And that's fear her. As if she just fell to his trap, and this so true now that she couldn't even tell what was happening outside. Was everything so fine?

She has her guess. Someone mysterious told her, "Every forbidden may bare fruit, but will never bloom beautiful. The tragic fate follow its own order, don't you think it couldn't find its way to you?"

This mysterious being appeared to be unseen, but its presence makes her Priestess nature to be certain for something. It can tell the truthfulness of the words that been said, and how its presence is out of this world. So powerful. Its intensity shivered her to cold. More so when the sky distorted, cracked, and soon a snowflakes fell endlessly. 

Until the whole world filled with nothing but white. 

It added near her ears, "Do you think he is worth the risk? You think he will risk to be with you? You think..." It thrilled off with a burst of wind that wakes her up to a strange premonition. She panted, yet it only continued with a pressing Warning, "Don't risk to change what suppose to happen. It only thorn the fruit away."

She gasped and teleported to reality when thunder boom outside. She weakily look up to the throne, and her gaze rest to a noble-looking man. So highly, looking down to the darkness that surround her. His bearing neat, and his eyes confuse for something. 

"Are you finally with me?" he ask, voice so gentle that pain her even more.

She can't reply, only rub the crystalize ball. But nothing is change. The crystalize ball replay the shocking premonition. She trembled, blood painted the snowy Mountain. Though she can change what suppose to happen, she coudn't risk.

Not now that she has someone to protect. 

She abandoned the crystalize ball with a shaken hands. She put it to her stomach, trying to convey strength their. And she strangely calm after a seconds. 

She smiled and meet the eyes that bizzare in a flamable gold. Its brightness hot, yet it makes its way to be gentle as it stares directly at her. Darkness, if not for the darkness that surround her, was she has the chance to be safe in this room? 

The pair of his eyes murdered those who think of betraying him. Not even entering the room, you can say a lifeless body burned to death. Its life ends for only a gaze from him, for dare to think of killing him!

So dreadful to the extreme, deadly in its own unique way. That's why it cross her mind this whole time, if she can really risk to be with him and forever be at the favor of his eyes?

She nodded with understanding, put away the emotions that hinder the plan she device herself. "Something has to be done," she said that suddenly made the man in the throne to look away, as if something he can see beyond anyone else. "And that is to stop something more dreadful to come."

"I understand," he murmured to himself together with the blows of the snowflakes affect throughout the Mountain. It swirling about to the deepest of the mountain and even reach the far place that haven't bother by the climate. Strangely, the place so hot the birds, insects and almost every living things that so small to ever notice plucking around. 

He smiled. "What a wonderful place," he said that bother the woman in the dark. 

"What?" Her face darkened, feel her blood boiled. "Are you joking around? This is not the time!" Her voice raised, the first time ever.

Yet, the man in the throne doesn't even shock, as if expect her to raise her voice. He expression softened, but never dare to look back to the woman. 

"You know, one sometimes resorted to hide something, and that's to protect this very thing...or a very person," he said, then seeing a shifter turn ferocious, massive figure, and with the howl that burst the barrier that surround the area. But before it even broke and scattered to the ground, new barrier give birth with enormous and raging fire.

Enrage, the enormous creature howled in no end. Its eyes so bluish and with bloody golden bright that plead to be free for devastating fate. This in turn softened the man in the throne, said in a lowful tone, "However, does one that protected in hidden resorts have ever ask this kind of fate for the sake of being safe?"
