“I didn’t know you could do this to me. To me, your leader, your king, your friend and almost like a brother. I'm really bewildered by this side of you, Veto. What have I created you into?” Lycaon said and looked at Veto, smiling and looking down on him. No other deed could inflict so much harm and pain to the king than to see the person whom he trusted so much with all his life and treated like a brother, betray and swings sword against him.Anger, disappointment and sadness could be seen in Lycaon’s face. He never really imagined that Veto could betray him for power. That the man he thought as his brother could stabbed him at his back. After all the times they have spend together as comrRelated chapters

"What!? Is that the best you can do? I can't believe it!" Tyler said, looking down on me with an irritating smile on his face. "The son of the great king, Lycaon?" he scoffed."Tch. I'm sorry Prince Tyler, son of king Veto for being a weak ass lycanthrope!" I said in gritted teeth as I push myself to stand firmly.It's been almost three days since Tyler started to trained me and damn, he's not a very good teacher but he has great skills, it sometimes getting on my nerves.He made me jump, run, transform into my lycanthrope form, and swing my sword for over hundreds of times. It's been like that for the whole three days.Sometimes it feels like he is just tormenting me for wanting to avenge my father and take the kingdom."Don't get me wrong. I just wanted to properly prepare you for the coming battle. My father might not be as formidable as yours, but he's not the chief of king Lycaon's ar

"Your majesty, I know I may sound so rude and disrespectful, but I have been noticing this for the past couple of days." Hamlet suddenly said, his eyes are locked to something outside the window of my chamber. This room has this huge window, one or even two person could fit. This glass with golden edge window allows one to see the outside very clearly and easy.One can even see some parts of the Lycto from here. It serves as my watch tower, allowing me to see who entered and left the kingdom of Arcadia. "What? What have you been noticing? You can just say it to me. And what are you even watching from that window?" I answered, standing up from my study table and walked towards him. "Pardon my rudeness for saying this your highness, but I've been noticing that the prince and that lost child have been spending too much time together in the past few days. I don't know if it's just me, but I had a strange feeling about that." he said, still looking ou

Everything feels surreal. That's a fact and I hate this kind of feeling. Damn! This place, Shaun's identity and me being the only thing that could help him survive the curse on his bloodline. Crap. Am I still dreaming?"What are you doing here? Didn't my father told you that, Lycto is not a safe place, especially to a human with no markings of a lycanthrope?" a voice suddenly is heard from my back. "You're really one brave woman." I hurriedly stands up and dusted myself as I cleared my throat and took few steps backward, away from him. "And didn't your father taught you to not to invade anyone's comfort zones? Can't you see? I'm still not used to you, let alone your lycanthrope form." I said as I looked at him. He was in his lycanthrope form and it made my heart pound like crazy, it could burst out of my chest. His fur is a combination of brown and white. There's a streak of white fur in his chest and in his legs.Honestl

Everything is carefully planned out. It was perfectly laid out. Somehow, Priam calling for me like that feels odd and nerve wrecking. I had cold sweats and a trembling hand just by walking my way here."Pardon my intrusion." Austin said, "good day Priam and Silver. I hope you're both good. Anyway, here is the man." she said, pushing me to Priam and Silver.Priam and Silver just smiled to her and nodded their head as a response. Austin smiled in return and made her way to one of the couch inside and leisurely planted herself there, completely ignoring me. I could just shake my head and roll my eyes upwards. Austin really does makes me go silent sometimes."What did you call me for, Priam?" I said, walking into their side."Take a seat and we would talk." he said in a low serious voice as he guide me to the other side of the cabin with his hand.The cabin is not that small. It can accommodate nearly 20 people, I think? But from the ou

I never got scared, not once in my life. Even when I am fighting with the strongest beast in the forest, I never felt my heart racing nor my arms trembled. And I've always believed that nothing could make me, until today. But when father asked me those questions, my feet got cold, my hands trembled and I felt my heart pounding so crazy, it could burst out from my chest.He's suspicious of me, I'm sure of that. But decided to just let it go, like nothing happens. Just how long can I keep this act?"Prince Tyler." Hamlet got my attention when he suddenly spoke in front of me. "Hamlet. What are you doing here?" I said, looking at him.Hamlet smiled at me. And somehow, that smile didn't sit right for me. It feels... off. Almost like a smirk as he crossed his arms and stared me without saying anything. "Hamlet. Are you playing around with me?" I paused and raised my brow at him, "are you forgetting that I am the prince of this kingdom,

It is done. Only one remains. The fourth phase of Lycaea is one of the hardest phases of the ceremony. That's what I heard. The odd one should be able to control itself right from that moment to have a better chance surviving the last phase. Thankfully, I managed to survived. "Ow! ow! Can't you be a little more gentle?" I said complaining to the beautiful woman beside me. She tilted her head to one side looked at me with her fiery eyes. "Oh yeah?" she scoffed and even put the medicine harder than she already did. "I know Priam told you to spend the night in the forest, so that you could hunt for yourself the moment you changed and be used to the taste of different beast in here, right?“ she said nodding her head, her eyes glaring at me, poking holes in my body. "That's right! And I did manage to control it! Thanks to Nemesis and Wyre potion!" I said happily nodding my head like a child to her. She looked so pisse

"Your highness? Are you awake?" I heard a knock outside of my chamber. "Your highness?" I felt Austin rustling beside me and her brows keep on frowning to the sound of the knocks outside. I kissed her forehead and fixed the blanket covering her. "I love you.." I whispered and quickly stands up. I pulled the robe on my corner table and wrapped it around my body. All my clothes, necessities, this robe and other things that I would be needing are placed outside of my door every morning since the day I came here. Until I told them that I have my own two hands and feet to prepare what I need and I just want them to put it all here in my chamber. Thankfully, they heed my request. I fixed my hair and walked towards the table few meters away from my bed. Like I said, my chamber is as big as an average home in Orion. It's not that big, but it's certainly not small for just a person. "Come in." I said and sat down on the couch with

When my wife, the queen of this kingdom died decades ago, I've spent my days securing the safety of the kingdom as well as my son, Tyler. For some reason, the idea of being a second-rated king and leader of a wealthy and prosperous kingdom scared me too much. Too much that I have forgotten how to be a father to my son.My days since then was spend to do the duties I have as a king but never as a father. I was so focused on surpassing the late king.

"So, what's your plan now?" I said as I swing my sword towards his direction.He easily evaded it as he laughed at my question. "To tell you honestly, I don't have any sort of plans or goals." he laughed as he pushed me using his sword, "I just want to live a peaceful life.""You could stay here." I quickly bend down when I saw him powerfully swinging his sword horizontally towards me. "I mean, you should. Your father's here. You could do whatever you want to do as you stay here too."Tyler chuckled and shakes his head. "You are so different from your father when you're like this." he jumped away from me as he threw some daggers towards me. "Your father wouldn't easily forgive someone who has done wrong to him. At least that's how I knew him based on the stories."It was my turned now to laughed at him as I threw some daggers to him. "He's not like that at all. I mean that's what Priam told me."

"How.. co-could you.. d-do this.. to me?" I said as I felt a burning sensation all through out my entire body. "I've trust..I've trusted you.."My eyes laid to Austin's crying face. She is trembling and I could see the fear plastered on her pale face. She looks so miserable as she keeps on struggling, trying to escape from the tight rope that is tied around her body.It was too tight to the point of it almost dragging her skin every time she would move or squirm, trying to get out from it."Sh-Shaun.. " she whispered in between of her weeps. "I-I'm.... I'm scared." and then she finally burst out crying.Her eyes were all swollen and puffy. Her face is a mess.I clenched my fists and turned to glared at Veto, "How could..

Lycaea.It was a ceremony to honor the alpha and the coming king of the kingdom. For Arcadians, it is the most important gathering everyone has been waiting.To give their loyalty to their alpha, to honor his existence and to give their life in the service of their chief, there's no other things that they could've ever ask for.But unlike any other ceremony and gatherings inside the kingdom, Lycaea is only allowed to the members of the Executives as well as to the higher-ranking officials of the kingdom.So, the question is, why would the kingdom, especially Veto, would agreed to the trouble of setting up such an important ceremony for Shaun?Given the fact that he is the only child of the former king, Lycaon. He was supposed to be the heir, and that is not a secret to the entire kingdom. So, in order to somehow give respect to that thing, Veto needed to proceed with it.And he badly need to make it for he desire even greater p

When Priam told me years ago that I was not his child and that someday, I would fulfill an important role given to me and would lead a huge kingdom in the future, I find it rather ridiculous and impossible than the feeling of being honored. I even told him that, how could a unique and indifferent child could lead something even greater and bigger than myself. How could a child with no clear origin be able to influence others and make them accept his leadership?How could I? But Priam just laughed at me as he caressed my head that time. He looked at me with a fatherly smile on his face and said, "Shaun, you're future is already determined even before you were born. Only you and the person you are destined to meet could only change that fate." he said and gave me a tapped on my back, "But I know, you would be able to change that fate, because unlike someone I know, you have a huge heart and personality to do so. And I would always watch your back until that time

I didn't know I would regret something I myself had chosen. No one really forced me to do it, but I felt like I was deceived and played. "Oh? Is that all you can do?" her voice rings into my ear. It feels so irritating and annoying. She's one of the beautiful woman I have seen here in the kingdom. Her pale skin looks so beautiful on her.She looks so surreal, almost like a heroine straight from a comic strip. Her long hair is really magnificent and soft. I wonder how can she moved that fast with that massive and long hair. "Lady Austin, is that all you can do that?" she said almost laughing, "and you dare to say you would stay with the prince forever? That must have been an impossible dream you have there, lady." she smirked as she crossed her arms over her chest. She looked down on me, almost collapsing to the ground with an annoying smile on her face. It feels as if she was judging me with those pair of eyes. And I really hate them looking at

"I heard from Lupus that you've improved, Shaun." Tyler said as he swing his sword to Shaun's direction."I mean, he looked so happy when we got to talked about it. He looked like a proud father for his son, so much that it makes all the hair on my arms and legs to raised and wave."The side of Shaun's mouth moves a little upwards as he shielded his self from Tyler's attacks with his sword. "Lupus is just overreacting." Shaun said running away from Tyler. "Well.. Should I say I did?" he said, almost laughing as he continues to evade and escapes, shielding his self from Tyler's cruel attacks with no intention of stopping. "Lupus.. was all jolly.. and all smiles when he.. talked about it." Tyler said as he continue on attacking while Shaun continues on evading and shielding. "You know the old man. He gets all happy over simple things." Shaun finally let out a surprise attack to Tyler. Tyler's cheeks were scratched and wounded a little bit.

It has been days. Aetos have committed to observe and watch Silver, Lupus along with Winter unusual change of behavior.For the past couple of days, he has been watching them. Keeping a close but discreet distance from them. But unfortunately, he has found nothing. Instead, he noticed that indeed, Lupus and Silver is always together. Sometimes they are training with prince Shaun, there are times with them talking to Winter but several times with only themselves. And that alone is quite suspicious.Lupus is not one to spend too much time with any of them. He was always alone and prefers to be alone. He was aloof and was obvious to be wary of them. 'So, what happened? Why the sudden change?' Aetos thought to himself.He wanted to prove Hamlet he was wrong on suspecting the chief of the paladins, but Lupus and Silver's closeness seems off to him as well as to Hamlet. So he can never ignored the possibility of Hamlet's suspicion being right.

"What? Is that all you can do, Shaun?" Priam laughed at me, playfully swinging his sword in the air. "You have the courage to boast that you are the only child of the great king, but look t how weak you are? Turns out, training with prince Tyler didn't do that much for you, huh?" he said. His hurtful words sting my ears so much. Sometimes, I think deep down he really mean every word. I could hear my own teeth grinding with the emotions building up inside of me.Damn! I hate this feeling. I clenched onto the shaft of my sword and took a deep breath and swing at him in a speed of a light but he easily evaded my attacks and smack me in the head using the scabbard of his sword as he laughed crazily. "Is that it?" he scoffed, "you think that would be enough to beat the king? Just like that? Don't be so foolish, your highness.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY!?" Aetos exclaimed slamming his hands against the table. More than anger, his face looks more worried than anything else. "Our king confronted the odd one? Why would he do that?" he said, the veins on his arms showed as he leaned towards the other two. "That's what I heard from the king." Hamlet said crossing his arms over his chest as he looked at Aetos with a blank expression on his face. Unlike the other two; Walter and Aetos, Hamlet seems to be calm and relax. Despite hearing it directly from the king that the odd one knew about everything, he sat there without a hint of worry on his face. "After he saw prince Tyler with that odd one countless of times, he wanted to know the real reason behind that closeness. Whether it was just a simple bond or...
