CHAPTER ONE
The howlings of the wind and whistlings of leaves were heard. The ground was shaking terribly like an earthquake was about to happen.
An man in his late fifties ran out and fell to the ground.
"Oh my!"
"He's angry, our lord is angry!" The man cried.
Simultaneously, other people ran out of their houses screaming in fear. They should be used to it but there is always that fear anyone pf them could get killed. Immediately there was great thunder strike and the loud scream of a woman was heard.
They all rushed towards her.
"Aaaaaah, my son!" My son! She cried out in pain.
"He's dead!" She added, crying profusely.
"The thunder had struck him dead!" She yelled again.
"Oh please have mercy on us, let this storm stop" the man said. The people were still crying but after some minutes, everywhere became calm.
VAMPIRES PALACE
The elders were gathered in a room discussing.
"You shouldn't have said anything to him knowing how bad his rage is?' The first elder asked the second elder who scoffed.
"The cruelty of lord Raven is getting out of hands, we need to have him eliminated. How much do we have to suffer. Our people are dying because of him! It's enough" The second elder spoke angrily.
"Hmmn, it's better we should be wise enough to hold our mouths. You are right but if we don't want to have our heads rolling, we should stay mute. His tenure would be over soon and we will be free.." The third elder said and they all kept quiet.
---------
In a dark room, A tall figure stood by the window and staring into the full moon. In his hands was a cup containing blood.
The figure glanced at it before drinking all in a gulp.
"My lord" he heard a familiar voice call him.
He dropped the cup in his hands and with a sudden speed he appeared in front of the lady.
"My lord" The lady staggered and fell on her knees. She groaned in serious pain. She bowed her head, trembling.
"Speak!" He ordered again. He was very assured that she didn't bring good news for him.
"I'm sorry my lord but I can't take the pains again. While we were on the mission, Lucian killed all of the warriors and he asked me to show you this.." She said, tears dropping from her eyes.
Raven's eyes changed within seconds and claws elongated. He clenched his fists angrily.
She stretched her right arm to him and then he saw it. It was written in magic words only he could understand.
"STOP COMING AFTER ME, YOU CAN NEVER GET ME! STEP BACK UNLESS YOU WANT TO END LIKE THEM"
Raven closed his eyes trying to calm himself down but no! He could already feel them taking over him.
As soon as Raven read it, the lady felt instant relief and she slowly stood.
"GET OUT!" Raven said in gritted teeth.
"But my lord.." She was still trying to talk when Raven suddenly opened his eyes. It was pure red. He swiftly grabbed her and then snapped her neck. Immediately her head fell from her body, blood splashed and stained the ground while her body dissolved into ashes.
Raven closed his eyes and bit his lower lip trying to fight the demons inside of him. He really needs to control himself before he does anything rash.
DARK COVEN
Lucian sat in his dark room snapping his fingers, deep in thoughts. He smirked when he remembered Raven. He was very sure that he would in deep agony right now and that's all he wants.
"My lord.." He heard a vampire call from outside.
"Come in.." he ordered with a deep voice.
The Male vampire walked in with a scrolled paper in his hands, he knelt down and presented it to Lucian.
"Its from the werewolves " The vampire said and Lucian took the scrolled paper.
Then he opened it. His eyes turned red immediately after reading the content.
"How dare they oppose my order!" Lucian yelled in anger.
"Prepare the soldiers! We are going for war!" He yelled and all the Vampires bowed in ordinance to him.
VAMPIRES PALACE.
"I need to find mum. She needs to give me the antidote or I'm going to run berserk within minutes. I can't allow the demons to take over me.." Raven whispered to himself.
"I don't want anyone to die again.." He added.
When he gets angry, his demons take control over him and he kills without thought. His anger affects his people a lot, near or far, some of them die as a result of his anger.
He wasn't looking normal again. He was already changing into his demon form. Hair started to form on his skin and his veins started popping out and his eyes were very red. His claws and fangs elongated .
Rica ran out of her room, she could feel the heat. Her son was already going berserk. Yes, she was not his biological mother but she loved him very much.
She found him standing outside her room with a clenched fists, almost transformed to his demon form.
"Raven.."her soft voice called .
"Mum, move back ." He yelled coldly. It was too late. He was going transform anytime soon and he couldn't afford hurting her.
"Raven, I can't leave you in this state. You would have to bare pains for the next two days until your demons rage is calm.." Rica said and moved closer to her soon while he moved backwards.
'Let me just give you the antidote. Don't worry, I'll be fine.." Rica said and brought out a small bottle with a liquid in it.
Eventually she came to him and touched his shoulder. Then she forcefully opened his mouth and gave him the antidote. However his eyes became more red, he grabbed her by the neck choking her. Rica tried to fight him but obviously, he was too strong for her. Even the power from his eyes was sucking her energy and she couldn't hold it for long. She gave up and that was when Raven calmed down and released her. Rica fell to the ground dead and her body turned into ashes.
Upon realising what he had done, Raven's lips trembled. Tears rushed out of his eyes and he fell to the ground and started sobbing.
"Mum! Nooo! What did I just do? Mum!" He yelled in tears.
"I'm a monster!" He cried out loudly.
Seer's palace.
Raven walked emotionlessly into the seer's palace. He was breaking the rules but he cared less, all he needed to do was to put an end to the curse in his life. Even if it means he would die!
"Tell the seer I want to see her.." He said to one of her maids.
Initially, it was very wrong for the lord to visit the seer's palace.
It was stated that even if the seer sees something in the future then she should be the one visiting the lord immediately, not the other way round.
"We will ask for her consent first" One of the seer's maids said but Raven suprised them by walking into the seer's chambers.
The seer sat on a long mat. Her long black hair fell on the mat, she clasped her hands together and sat like an arab. Her lips were moving like she was reciting some spells.
"Avril, stop what you are doing, I want to talk to you.." Raven's voice came.
The seer flinched and opened her eyes and then got up. She was wearing a long black gown that swept the floor exposing her cleavage.
"My lord" Avril called suprised.
"What are you doing here ?" She asked.
"I want to know what can kill me?" Raven asked, his cold stare sending shivers down her spine. Regina flinched.
"So use your powers to look into the future" Raven added.
"My lord....... I'm sorry but I don't have that kind of power but.." She paused and bowed her head.
"But what?" Rave asked and the colour of his eyes changed.
Regina knew better than lying to him.
"But a sacred spell book can do so" she said.
"Then go ahead!" Raven ordered.
"I'm afraid my lord I can't do it, my power isn't up to it yet, my powers cannot unlock it or else I'll die. But .." She swallowed hard before speaking again.
"A child will be born into the heritage of the seer. That child possesses the power to unlock the sacred spell book" Regina said with a trembling voice.
He walked towards her and stood in front of her.
"Are you suggesting that that i live for another 20 years just to end this madness?" He asked though calmly yet dangerously.
"You know what i'm capable of, Regina so you better do what I tell you to do" he said and Regina reluctantly turned.
She knew her fate anyway, she would die. She thought about it and walked to the place where the books was kept. She took it and a tear escaped her left eye. She wiped it off and placed her hand on the book before reciting some spells..
Her eyes turned white immediately as if she had been possessed.
"There will be a princess born into Royalty but has an hidden identity. She is from the royal lineage of the werewolves, the vampires greatest enemies. The moon goddess has made her the made of both demons twins, Lord Raven and Lord Lucian. However she is destined to kill one of them, the one with a dark heart and possessed by the demons in order to bring peace to the Vampires and werewolves kingdoms. However.."
She had not even finished talking when she began to shake terribly and soon she collapsed on the floor.
She was dead already. Raven's eyes widened. His eyes was still lingering on her dead body.
"She died. But she didn't complete the prophecy.." Raven thought and ran his hands into his hair.
"But all he is sure of is that the werewolf princess, his mate was destined to kill him since he was the one who possesses the dark heart and demons.."
WEREWOLVES PACK (VANARA)
"Alpha William! Alpha!" The Luna's personal servant shouted when she heard the Luna groaning in pain. She ran into the Luna's chamber. "Oh no, Luna the baby is coming!" The maid said and rushed out of the chamber.
"Don't worry Alpha, your wife will be okay " the midwife assured the Alpha and Alpha Williams nodded while the Midwife walked in.
"My lord, my lord, my lord!"" A travailed voice called.
Alpha William turned back to see the park warrior.
He fell to the ground crying.
"The vampires have attacked us, they have killed several of us.." He said in tears.
"WHAT?!" Alpha William shouted.
"Take cate of the Luna" He said to the guards stationed at the Luna's chambers and they all nodded.
"Where are the Betas and Gammas?' Alpha asked.
"They are also at the war front.." The pack warrior said and they both ran outside.
----
Later.
Luna Tricia cradled her baby in her arms watching the tiny little princess sleep. She smiled as she admired her.
Suddenly the door jerked open and two guards and a maid came in.
"Luna, you must get out of here" the maid said crying.
"Why?! Tricia asked confused, but the maid said nothing.
"Where's my husband?! Luna Tricia suddenly asked and their faces fell.
"Where's my husband?! where's William?!" She yelled.
"Luna, please calm down, you are still weak...." the maid said.
"Then tell me, where's my husband?! She asked, trembling with fear.
"We are so sorry Luna but the Alpha is dead!" The maid announced in tears.
"Nooo! This can't be happening!" She yelled and bursted into tears.
"Take me to him, I need to see him.." She sobbed harder.
"Luna, you need to live to protect your baby. Please Luna.." the guard said.
"But... But... how do we leave here?" Tricia said.
"I know a way, the underground cave " the maid said .
"Come on, Luna. Let's get out of here quickly.." The maid said and took her hand.
20 years later.
NEW YORK CITY
ROYAL HILL CITY CLUB.
Loud music was blaring from the speakers and a young lady was dancing wildly to the beats.
Wohooooo!!! Alyssa yelled as she danced crazily to the beat of the music that was playing. She poured herself another cup of alcohol.
"Wow, I'm so enjoying this!" She mumbled.
She drank more alcohol and she screamed and laughed crazily.
"Hey Alyssa, her best friend Rachael ran towards her and tapped her.
"Hey, are you okay?" She asked .
"Yeah" she answered drowsily. It was obvious that she was drunk already.
"Alyssa, we need yo get going or your mum eill get mad at you" Rachaeĺ said.
"Let her get mad at me, she forgives me everytime right" she smiled and drowsily tapped Rachael's face.
"I'll be right back. I need to go to the rest room.." She said and staggered .
"Wait, Aly, you might fall" Rachael said and held her.
"Nah, nah, nah, I'm Alyssa Vandemir, i don't fall for useless tantrums" she said drowsily and tried to stand straight. "I will be right back" she said staggering towards the restroom.
"Hey pretty" A guy said and tried to hold her hand but she slapped it off.
"Don't try to come near me" she said in gritted teeth and the guy saw something flash in her eyes.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry the guy said and quickly walked away.
"Better" she said still drowsily.
She staggered throughout her way to the rest room until she bumped into somebody and fell into the person's hands. Mia looked up to see the most handsome guy she had ever seen in her life.
Even still drunk she couldn't help but admire his rare beauty. His face and skin clour were pale and his eyes were black and mesmerising. His hair was disheveled. His lips were full and red. He was ravishingly beautiful.
She smiled and then stood on toes, she went for his lips and gave him a peck there.
