Preparation For My Coronation

2216 Words
Declan’s POV The night was cold and quiet. Everyone was getting ready for the Coronation of the Alpha prince, which is me by the way. The only difference is that, while everyone is getting ready to support me as I wears my father’s forbidden crown, I am still having serious doubts about this whole s**t. Something just doesn’t seem right today, I just don’t know what it is. I keep seeing her in my head, sometimes I feel her pains and I’m burdened with her lonely, sad heart. The first day I heard about her was the day she took out all five of my lycan warriors, it was a ruthless m******e that we couldn’t cover up no matter how we tried. You see, the war between Dominic and my father was ruthless and bloody. My father involved humans in this war and Dominic had to involve Marco Lorenzo as well. They were both fighting dirty and the goal was to win and get rid of the other king. They did not think of the aftermath of the war, wait, actually, my father did. His plan was to get rid of the only man that had the power to challenge him, which is Dominic. And after getting rid of Dominic, he was going to proclaim himself king over all humans and supernatural as well. He was going to take out all the human leaders and destroy their governmental structure, bending the rules to suit his selfish desires. He had his plans all laid out for him, he planned for the future as well. But Dominic did not. He did not even think of the consequences of his actions during the war. He just fought hard to win. And he did win the war, we won the damn war, and got rid of my father. The news of the war travelled to places we never expected it to reach. A few days after the war, while we were still trying to put everything my father ruined back in order, the calls started coming in. They were calls from governmental agencies that threatened to rain down fire and brainstorm on us if we don’t explain our involvement in the war. They claimed that we have no respect for the lives of humans, and now they are openly declaring war against us. I had no idea that we were being closely monitored by this people. We pinned all the previous murders on my father, we had no idea that they had declared an open war with us, even before the death of my father. They were too scared to make any make any move initially. They were scared of my father and the weapons he makes, that is why we didn’t hear from them all these while. They lurked in the shadows, keeping close watch on us taking out anyone they found wandering around alone. They are called the hunters, they are responsible for maintaining the balance between humans and supernatural creatures. They have been sent to annihilate us, and they gave been equipped with enough power, authority and weapons to carry out the damn job. I am not scared of the hunters, they have been around for ages and just as their name signifies, they are mere hunters, and they have hunted us for ages, trying to wipe us out or at least reduce our ever growing population. They keep trying and they keep failing miserably. That is why I’m not bothered by their presence in our territories, I’m not even scared of their new weapons. My father has more sophisticated weapons and he didn’t succeed in killing us all. What really bothers me is the fact that they have strong backing from the government. We can chose to fight the hunters, and trust me, we would win. King Dominic and I make quite a team, together we are a formidable force that cannot be taken out easily. We have engage the hunters a few times, and we pushed them back a bit, keeping them outside our borders. They are still in our territory, but they can’t cross our borders anymore, they won’t even dare it. While we kept the hunters at bay, we came up with ideas on how to deal with the real problem here. The hunters are not our real problem, the government are. They have lost faith in us, and now they do not want us living amongst them anymore. My father caused all this, if he didn’t cause our exposure, we would be living peacefully in the deepest parts of the woods. Initially, it was only a few top governmental agencies that knew about our existence. Now our secret is out in the open, the town folks now look over their shoulders in fear of our existence. If only we can find a way to convince the governments that we are not the monsters that they believe we are. The task is a bit diffcult, would involve several meetings and bargaining with the government. At the same, it is going to be dangerous because they may decide to take our the delegates of this meetings. They may think that Dominic and I would grace them with our presence, they could be planning to take us out on that day. We couldn’t risk, we had to send delegates in our place. If we let them succeed in wiping out our leadership team, then there is no saying what would happen to our people. Without us, they will be completely eliminated and all this war and bloodshed would have been for nothing. We decided to make use of our prisoners, we got them out of jail and we briefed them on the situation at hand. We don’t trust them completely, but we have no choice. They are dispensable, and they can use this opportunity to redeem themselves before us and earn their freedom for life. The chances of them betraying us a second time is next to none. They have nowhere else to go, and there is no tyrant king for them to run go this time. Besides, they must have heard about the hunters lurking around the city. One wrong move could cause them their lives. They have no choice, they accepted their roles an fell into character immediately, acting as diplomats, holding seminars and meeting, trying to clear the air and make these guys understand that we are not bad people. We never let them go alone, we sent some warriors along with them. They went with five of my warriors and five of King Dominic’s warriors as well. We tried to make this work, we were with them on the screen, we attended the meeting via zoom video calls and we tried as much as possible to change their minds and get them to believe everything we told them about my father. After a few meetings and negotiations, we reached a consensus and it seems like things were beginning to get better for us again. They believe us, they believe that my father is the cause of all this unnecessary exposure. They believed when we said that with him gone, there will be no more killings, we would never risk human lives ever again. The hunters were called off, and we are allowed to live our lives peacefully again. A few weeks after we reached an agreement, our delegates were sent to seal this deal with our signature stamps. The president signed our agreement, then Dominic and I did the same with our signature seals. Everything seems perfect, and we were celebrating a second victory when we got the call that our delegates have been attacked by an unknown creature. It was a bloody attack, the creature tore them to bits and pieces, they body paths could not be differentiated or even identified. This time, we didn’t send delegates to go there and check it out, we showed up at the scene to pick up the signed documents that contains our agreement and our signature seals. These things are too important to fall in the wrong hands. I wondered what the motive of the murderer was, and at the same time, I was glad that we had succeeded in getting this document before the attack. Mind you, I’m not happy abou6byyis attack, these guys may have betrayed us before, but they have redeemed themselves and in pretty sure that they deserve better than this gruesome death. On the other hand, I am quite impressed with the fact that their murders was caught on camera, and the murderer was seen clearly. It would have been a different story if the government had blamed us for their deaths, I’m sure they would have canceled all our agreements. While we watched the security footage from the parking lot that they were murdered in, I noticed that king Dominic wasn’t surprised to see this creature like the rest of us were. It seems he knows about it, and I had to pull him to a corner to find out how he knows about it. That was when he showed me the picture of the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen in my whole life. She looked so pure and innocent, her beauty is so captivating and alluring. Once I gazed into those light green eyes, I couldn’t help but get pulled into her green orbs. I was so shocked to realize that all these bloody murders were carried out by a mere girl, a beautiful angel, I must admit. Dominic told me her story, and I felt even worse than I did initially. I wished she hadn’t killed Fabius herself, I would have loved to kill that bastard myself. How could he be so mean, how could he do this to her, how could he hurt such a gorgeous, innocent angel. I don’t know why I was feeling this way, I feel like this Fabius guy had hurt me personally. I feel hurt and betrayed and I got so furious because Dominic never told me about her until she became the most wanted criminal in the whole city. He noticed the change in my demeanor, but he didn’t understand the reasons behind my actions, and neither did I. We assured the cops that we would do our best to assist them in this investigation, then we approached our cars parked a few blocks away. As we walked to our cars, I could have seen that I felt a strange eyes on my skin, the hairs on my body stood on edge and I felt my heart warming up. I looked around me in panic, and so did Dominic. I thought it was a special feeling, but when I noticed that Dominic felt it as well, I decided to push it to the back of my head. I guess it’s just my subconscious, warning me of an impending doom, or something like that anyways. We went back to our various houses, with me still zoning out like a zombie, think about her and the possibility of meeting her someday and comforting her for everything she had been through. I don’t know why I feel so drawn to her, but I’m going to find a solution to her problems, I’m going to help her find her way back into the real world. She is lost and alone, and now I’ve made it my personal mission to help her find her way back home. Dominic had said that his doctor was working on a solution to turn her back into a human or a werewolf. They wasn’t to create the vampire game in her body and make her a werewolf. I don’t know if that is possible, but I’m willing to spend my last cent on this project, I’ll save her and bring her back home to her family and to me of course. A few months has passed, the hunters have been called off from our lands and they left faster than we anticipated because they wanted to be part of the team that catches the unknown creature. Rumor has it that a some scientists are looking for her because they wish to carry out some crazy experimenting her. Some say the hunters and the scientist are cooking up a plan to kill is all, others say that they simply want to replicate our genes and recreate more like us. There are many people searching for her, and yet she has not been caught. I don’t know how she does it, but she evades everyone and she finds a way to evade the security cameras and drones that are also sent to find her. The manhunt for her continues and the search for a cure is still ongoing as well. Today is my Coronation, I’m finally going to be wearing my fathers crown. I’ve been pushing this ceremony forward, waiting to have her by my side before I’m crowned king of Lycans. It sounds so stupid, but I think we share a special connection. I don’t know why I feel drawn to her, but I’m not going to abandon her out there all alone, and I certainly won’t let them hurt her. I’ll bring her back home, and I’ll make her fall for me and accept our bond.
