Obsolete Princess

Bad Omen

Luca’s POV

I barrel through the clinics front doors, Astor and Lacey hot on my heels. I halt to sniff the air for my mate. Catching a whiff or her scent I follow it through the right hall past the packs nurses station as I see Victor holding my limp mate in his arms. He gently places her down on a gunnery. Dr. Ophelia peeks her head out of a room motioning for Victor to take her in. Victor pushes her hair out of her face. It sparks a bit of jealousy and a low growl rumbles off my chest. Victor looks up at us coming his way. He backs away slowly. I shift to my human form. Nodding at Victor in a sort of thanks. Although Lucian isn't too happy with him.

"Please get us all a set of clothes". Astor asks as he covers my sister body with his own. I hear the beeps of a monitor through the door. And a very faint heartbeat. Knowing it's my mate I steel myself and push open the door. Dr. Ophelia is leaning over my mate flashing a light in her eyes. Two she wolves with wet towels clean my mate up and they attempt to cool her body down. Another shewolf stabs a syringe into my mates neck and it irks me. She takes a sample of her blood. Which is black like a vampires.

"The venom is completely taking over her faster than I initially thought." Dr. Ophelia turns to look at me. "I need to tell you something Alpha" I don't like the look on her face. "In private, ladies please give us a moment. There isn't much we can do now" she adds. The shewolves exit the room silently. I grab a pair of shorts on the table and put them on quickly. Lucian whines, he's pushes me to go to our mate. So I do... I reach for her hand. Sparks shooting up my arm as I lay my hand over hers. Her body is hot, and her entire body shakes violently off and on. I look down at Charlie's face, for the first time taking in her delicate form. Her lovely face. She's so young, beautiful, and mysterious. Lucian stares admiring our mate. The doctor clears her throat.

"Alpha.... she was bitten by one of the born night walkers". All the blood drains from my face. What the f**k!? Lucian and I say in unison.

"I thought they all persished in the last war almost a 100 years ago, isn't that what we were taught, could you be wrong"?! Ophelia looks down at her feet.

"Yes Alpha, I double checked the puncture wounds. I couldn’t believe it myself. I know I'm not mistaken. It's nothing like a regular vampires bite. Another indication is how quickly the venom is working sir. Its working remarkably fast. She was bitten a day or so ago. No more than 2 days. A regular vampires venom could take weeks to kill a wolf. The puncture wound is not healing either." Interrupting the good doctor I put my hands up. Halting her speech I throw in my own thoughts. Lacey and Astor silently enter the room as I speak.

"Could we possibly consider the fact that she has not yet shifted? Not having her wolf to speed up the healing process or to slow the venom down.... could that play a role in this Doctor?" She shakes her head.

"Alpha, whatever has happened to this girl can bring no good. That is a born night walkers bite. Whomever it was knew what they were doing. This is a declaration of war. All these years we thought The Born Night Wlakers were eliminated from existence. This.... this changes everything. They let us think we won." She stops mid sentence exasperated, the wheels turning in her head "They must have been building an army to come for revenge. And your mate Alpha... she's only the beginning". A chill ran down my spine as I looked at this girl... my mate. Question upon question swirling in my head. Who the f**k are you Charlie? What have you done? Are you a bad omen of what's to come?

Prince Koles POV

After the conference call this afternoon I jumped at the opportunity to take this mission myself. Father advised against it. But I am going to escort the rogue wolf whom was bitten by a Vampire myself. Caspian my wolf was ready as well and eager. The wolf with no memories was found at our outer border pack south of the castle grounds. The Rebel Moon Pack to top it off, they happen to be the closet pack to us. Well their leader was the only competent young Alpha in the circle of Alphas in the surrounding territories. My Respects to him. He'd taken up the mantle to serve his pack after his brother was murdered by a Coven of witches, Powerful ones. But not as powerful as the Faye. Each supernatural being had a Royal Family. We had all come to a truce even with a Covent of Vampires. Or what was left of them. Their blood sucking Royals were eliminated. Blood thirsty bastards wanting to rule above everyone else. I must complete this final task to take over as King in the next month. My father has reigned for the last 70 years, he cannot go on any more. It was surprising that a vampire had attacked a werewolf, especially with the truce that we all established 60 or so years ago. Interesting indeed. This could threaten the truce we have as a whole if we have a blood thirsty vamp attacking my wolves. I will stop at nothing to protect my kind, and everything my father worked hard for. He was the main reason for this truce. He brought every supernatural being to work together to protect each other from the Demons that ravaged our earth years ago. The vampires finally chose the right side. Let them not make the same mistake twice. Or their kind will be eradicated for good. Moon Goddess please I beg you. Watch over my kind and my father while I am gone. Beta Hector is very skilled and competent. Which is why chose him to stay with father.

"Prince, we will be there at dawn" Gamma Elliot calls to me from the front seat.

"You should rest". A smirk tugs at my lips.

"There is no rest for the wicked Elliot."

Elliot chuckles lightly.

"And I suppose you are wicked your highness"?

"Indeed I am. Just ask the ladies that come and go from my bed chambers". Elliot roles his eyes though a soft smile graces his lips.

"I suppose your destined mate won't be too fond of your play boy ways your highness". Now its my turn to role my eyes. Ah yes destined mates. I've long since given up hope in mine. It's best the moon goddess not grant me one. My heart died the day my mother did along with my betrothed Queen whom I loved dearly. I believed she was my mate, but I never got to find out. On her 18th birthday we had a grand celebration at the castle.... That was the last time I'd seen a Demon. 5 years ago. I take Elliots advice and close my eyes and surrender to darkness.

But it's nothing but screams of my mother and my betrothed that plague me. A demon tears out their hearts. I remember holding their limp bodies in my arms as I screamed in agony for my great loss. I was a useless, over privileged, spoiled brat then. Not able to protect the ladies who held my heart. It's as if my heart was ripped out by that demon too.
