"Oh my, don't look so displeased my king. I am just concerned that you're taking this too lightly. There's a reason why even the Gods fear the Alpha King, if I were you I will take the Queen to ensure my life won't be easily taken.. right?" Gianna snickers in front of me.
What an annoying woman, what the hell is she saying? She thinks i can help-
My eyes widened.
That's right, i have Gandiva with me. Is that why she said that?
Charles slammed his fists on the desk, saying. "SHUT UP! MY QUEEN WILL STAY OUT OF DANGER!"
Stay out of danger? No, he just wants to lock me up to where he can control me. He must've deliberately let me and Carly meet so i know where should I stand.
But why?
Why is it that he still doesn't trust that I'll stay despite all of that?
I cursed under my breath, realizing that Charles is more cautious than I thought. If things continue like this, I'll really be swept along his plans.
I can't let that happen.
"I object." I cut in.
He slowly turned towards me with a frown on his face. "You.. what did you say?"
"I said." I glared at him. "I will come with you if you plan to kill him, I want to be there."
He said that he'll just attack CenterCity to provoke RedBloodMoon, but I don't trust that. If he's attacking that close, there's no way Zyrus won't take up the challenge. Zyrus won't stand by and let his people get killed.
Since I don't know what else Charles has under his sleeve, I can't let him go near anywhere my mate!
But just as expected, i just angered him more.
"No." He hissed. "You will stay here, don't make me repeat myself."
Damn it, i gritted my teeth.
"Pardon me Milord, but i think it's not wise to attack CenterCity if you don't plan on taking the Queen with you." Fabian from the Eldon Family speaks in a monotone voice. "There's a high chance the Alpha King will show up, since you're trying to attack their bottom li-"
A dagger shows up on his neck, earning a chuckle from the other families.
Charles says in a low threatening voice. "I said, Don't make me repeat myself."
He gulps, "Yes Milord."
Then the sword disappears. He carefully inspects his neck and let out a glare at the other who was laughing at him.
"What are you all looking at?!"
"Since Milord is confident in his plans you shouldn't provoke him, Fabian." Kian from the Aleister family smirks.
"I am merely suggesting." He shot back.
"Suggesting is bad when you come up with stupid suggestions." Kian mocks.
"Silence." Charles orders, making them all shut up in an instant.
The tension in the room started to increase when Charles started to emit strange energy around him. If i were to guess what it was, it's probably Demon energy.
The others frowned, while the rest looks amused at what they are seeing. Just like they'rere watching a magic show, their faces were lit up with mere curiosity and entertainment.
I gulped, i never thought vampires would be this intense.
Well, here goes nothing.
I coughed.
All of them turning their attention to me. I started, "Before we attack, shouldn't we weaken the inside enemy force first? Surely there's a traitor among the Alphas after going on a constant war with themselves. If we do this, we're not just attacking from the front, but also stabbing them in the back."
Charles looks at me with a suspicious glance.
"I underestimated you my Queen, you seem devoted to kill your own species?" She smirks, before clapping.
I glared at her.
What is this bitch trying to say?
But regardless of the tension between me and her, i was relieved when they started to raise their hand in approval one at a time. Even Gianna raised her hand proudly, but by doing so, my confusion didn't subside as to what she was thinking to be acting so weird.
"I approve of this suggestion." Nick from the Etienne Family says. "But since you suggested this My Queen, then you have already prepared such a plan right?"
Thankfully i did.
I nodded, "Yes, I already have a few Alphas in mind."
"So you prepared this beforehand?" Charles says from beside me. I was a bit startled when he did so my expression must've betrayed me at that time.
I looked nervous.
"Yes, but not too long ago." I coughed again.
"Then tell me."
Goosebumps started to form all over my left thigh when he touches it slightly, looking at it with glowing red eyes before slowly going up to match my eyes.
"Three packs," I muttered, almost like a whisper. "Midnight pack, Moon Valley pack and.."
"And?"
"Your old pack. Stone pack." I finally said.
SYRENA's POV
{"Sister, do you know there's a being that even gods are afraid of?"} She says whole we both stared at the mountains in front of us. We were sitting side by side while i was munching an apple.
I raised an eyebrow, {"I haven't heard about the gods in centuries, where did you even get that information?"}
{"It's a very famous story now! Can you believe it? The moon goddess had a child and that child was destined to die by the hands of what they created. Isn't it funny?"} She laughs.
{"A child? How is that possible? Are you sure about what you heard?"}
{"What i heard? More like i've seen it personally with these eyes!"} Her eyes glowed in excitement.
{"What did you do now?"} I sighed, feeling worried that she wandered too far again.
She laughs. {"The god's defective creation and the child of a god. What an odd pair."}
{"Here, eat more apple it's delicious."} I handed her some of mine beside me but she just looks at it in a weird manner, looking at it like it was some kind of treasure.
{"I saw it Syreneana. The catastrophe that comes along with both of them."} She grabs an apple and let the dark magic on her palms kill its vitality. {"A cursed loop of despair and sufferings, even the end is only the start of the beginning."}
{"!!!"} She stands up.
{"Are you having those weird dreams again sister? How many times did i tell you to-"} She suddenly cups my face into her palms, her eyes started to widen and blood was starting to gush out from her mouth.
What's wrong with her?
{"Listen up, We have to flee Syreneana! they will come for us! No- they will come for me and you-"} She gasps.
When i looked at her chest, there was a blade that pierced through her. A man behind her pulled the weapon out from her and she falls on me, i screamed in despair. My eyes not living hers as i stared at how her wounds were not healing.
{"Sister!"} I yelled in fear, grabbing her side. {"Stay with me!"}
{"Argh, how dirty."} The man's voice traveled in my ears. i was about to look at him if it wasn't for my sister forcing me back to look at her, her palms on my right cheek.
She coughs up blood, {"Go.. Go with him. If you do, you'll surely survive the fate that was given to you."}
{"No..please!"} I cried.
As soon as her hand falls lifelessly, I trembled in fear as I looked at the murderer at my side. I could immediately tell he was a vampire that it scared me as a White witch to retaliate against him.
And the fact that i never fought anyone in my whole life didn't help the situation at all.
I don't even need to look at him. For he spoke first. He says in a low menacing voice. {"My name is Ramuel, don't forget it."}
+++++
I jolt up from my bed and held my throat in anguish. My head was throbbing so hard that i didn't notice how i was gripping my scalp, some of my hair being pulled away in its spot.
"Argh!" I squealed when I fell off my bed.
I sighed as I laid down on the cold ground. It's been days since my meridians were blocked and constant memories were going back to me one by one since I realized that I locked some of them using dark magic before.
I still can't get used to it, all the seals I've put into my body were all released.
But till today, I have never got scared at my memories before. Seeing my sister get killed by Ramuel.. must be the reason why i locked my memories in the first place.
"This is troublesome." I sighed before slowly getting up.
"What's troublesome?" Beta Jaxon's voice says.
I almost lost my balance in shock when I heard him in my room. Turning my head to find him, I scurried away once I finally saw him standing by my window.
"What are you doing in my room?!"
