The Alpha King's Blood Oath

Bow down to him, Zinora

" You are a Doppelganger, Zinora, that is not good." Said Ariella as she handed the phone back to Talon. She turned back toward her best friend and saw the expression change she froze for a few seconds.

" I am sorry I wasn't thinking straight." Zinora nodded her head slightly.

" So what does that mean? if it is not good?" asked Lincoln curiously. Zinora bowed to everyone quickly.

" Death," Said Zinora without care.

"I must take my leave, I apologize for not staying," she turned to walk away when Jacob stopped her by taking her wrist.

" I was hoping to spend more time with you," he said softly, she would not look up at him and he felt the progress they had made in the one day had disappeared. The connection and feelings he had felt with her were slowly dying.

" I should never have taken it this far Jacob, with what is to happen We should stay away from each other until then."  Jacob shook his head not wanting to listen to her word's he took hold of her face his thumb brushing over her lip's, pain-filled his eyes as they stood in silence for a few seconds.

" Please, Zinora you know I will never hurt you,"  she quickly covered his mouth he had no choice his words were meaningless to her, she then stared over his shoulder behind him and across the small waterhole. 

" Stay here,"  she whispered moving past everyone and focusing on a dark shadow in the already dark tree's slowly raising her hand she told everyone to stay where they were. 

" Zinora, I can't smell or sense him,"  mumbled Marcus in a warning tone as she got closer.

" I don't feel danger, but be careful,"  whispered Tatianna. Zinora stopped as the eyes glowed a little she took a deep breath thinking about who or what she was about to encounter.

" It is powerful, Marcus. More powerful than us,"  she said as she looked back at the others.

" Then there is only one thing you can do My Queen,"  said Marcus backing up to let her take full control. Zinora already knew what he was thinking but it was Tatianna who spoke the words.

" Bow Down to him, Zinora."  without hesitating Zinora lowered to her knees and put her head to the ground in surrender. 

         A Large figure stepped out into the open his eyes were forever changing color as he put on dark glasses , He stood large even as he leaned against a tree looking down on her, his hair was blonde then purple but settled at a black and hung loosely around his shoulders, His masculine jawline was defined with dark stubble and was chiseled to attract any women of any race, his lips curved in the corners as he lowered to the ground sitting in front of Zinora. He wore a plain black T, leather pant's and Long black leather trench coat his black boots were simple biker boots.

" You don't need to bow before me,"  He said in a deep mesmerizing voice His hand moved to her shoulder but stopped when a hiss and growl were heard, he chuckled glancing toward Jacob if only they knew he could wipe them out faster than any other being on Earth, would they still act this way? he raised his hands in the air then smiled showing his own set of fangs.

" Boss, "  called Talon beginning to move forward.

" Stay where you are Talon,"  He said quickly. Zinora finally lifted her head and stared into his glasses she leaned back on her legs to get comfortable. She could see a crease on his forehead like he was frowning.

" Please don't read my mind," she then said lowering her head in shame.

" It cannot be helped sometimes, Your emotions and thoughts are very strong forcing me to listen and see all that has happened in your life."  The god-like man took a deep breath and shook his head angrily he removed his glasses to show her a set of golden eye's with a red iris. Zinora grinned reaching up to brush her hair back.

" You have seen these eyes before, and you feel safe, Why?" he folded his arms over his chest seeing every-one sit back and relax all but one, Jacob.

" I don't know why but it feels those eyes have protected me many times yet I cannot remember where I have seen them and the word furball comes to mind," she giggled making this man smile even more. he then closed his eyes for a few moments.

"  I cannot help you, If I do My daughter will pay with her life, So,"  He lowered his head taking a deep breath Zinora understood what being a doppelganger meant it didn't bother her at all.

" My men are here to help you with your family, they are the best I can offer to relocate them if the opportunity arises, that is something only you can make happen,"  he smiled pointing his chin toward Jacob.

" He is going to hate himself so much, but I think your futures are set in stone." Zinoras eyes lowered once again this time to a small cricket on the ground as if concentrating on that one bug would make her forget all her worries.

" Who are you?" she finally asked, " I am Zinora, how would I address you," The large man smiled waving for his men to approach. 

" I am simply Ezen, over the years I have been known by a lot of name's but Ezen is what I go by now." Zinora nodded bowing her head again.

" It is an honor to meet you, Lord Ezen,"

" and I, you Lady Zinora, I will speak to my men and take my leave I hope we meet again,"  Ezen held out his hand helping her to her feet, though his hands were large and strong they were gentle to the touch like he was holding back every ounce of strength he had so he would not hurt her, She watched him move away with a slight slouch but the Power of the universe on his shoulders.

" Calais," said Ezen standing in front of Jacob. Jacob frowned peering over at Zinora he lowered slightly.

" I am Prince Jacob, I do not know a Calais," Jacob replied, Ezen smirked and nodded lowering to Jacobs's ear. Jacob's eyes grew wide with worry then his head snapped toward Ezen His eye's glowed blue as anger overtook him, he attacked taking everyone by surprise everyone but the man in front of him, Ezen moved quickly defending himself, he moved faster than anyone could see but then stopped, Jacob threw his hand out but hit the ground before he made contact, he shook his head a little dazed then growled.

Ariella stepped away from Lincoln her eye's constantly on him as she moved a little closer to Zinora. Zinora looked down on Jacob as his eyes turned red a sign that all reason had gone his hands wrapped around her throat shocking even Lincoln, quickly her arms swung up between his forcing his hands from her throat she then clapped both his ears bringing up her right foot and kicking him away she waited to see what his next move was but he didn't move.

Ariella shook her head slowly while pointing toward Lincoln as he went into Guardian mode his entire body turning gold, he stood in between Zinora and Jacob a sword in each hand.

" Please stop this Lady Zinora, I do not wish to harm you,"  He asked with deep concern his eyes were more on Ariella than any-one else her eyes sparked fiercely as she stepped in front of Zinora. Zinora closed her eyes raising her head to the sky she nodded slightly placing a hand on Ariella's shoulder.

" As you wish, Guardian," She linked Ariella with sadness.

" Make your choice old friend I will not be angry with your decision, I love you always,"

" You need not ask," she said loudly so everyone could hear. 

" and I know you would love me no matter what choice I made," her eyes were once again on Lincoln who knelt beside Jacob on the ground she backed up and then turned to follow Zinora who ordered Aiden to stay and accompany the newcomers.

" Ariella," called Lincoln sadly, 

" Please, stay," Ariella turned so only one side of her body was seen a stern look on her face revealed to him her answer.

" My Loyalty is with My Queen, Lincoln, as yours is with your Prince."  the corner of her lip curved as she smiled raising her hand, Lincoln lifted off the ground unable to move.

" They, don't call me a witch for nothing, Guardian, you ever stand before my Queen again in Guardian Form I will show you true pain."  dropping her hand quickly to her side lincoln hit the ground hard knocking the wind out of him, He lay in silence as he watched Ariella's shadow disappear. 

" You two are pretty much screwed," laughed Aiden as he stood beside Ronin.

" You think the Alpha King is the most feared being in our land's, Prince Jacob, you are lucky Zinora likes you or she wouldn't have walked away." Aiden then turned to Ronin who had a smirk on his face.

" Our Zinora is the same way, that dominance, that only intensifies with her silence, a silence that makes you realize that she isn't worried or scared but is thinking of the best way to get back at you," Ronin's eyebrows raised a few time's as Aiden nodded continuously.

" Yep that's My Queen," he chuckled moving away so they could talk between each other.

              Ezen crouched taking several deep breathes just looking at the ground.

" Oi Dinosaur you gonna chat or send us home," Mumbled Ronin, throwing a rock into the waterhole he walked too and fro several times then kicked at Ezen annoyingly.

" You know I will always go against you aye pretty boy so tell us what we are doing here I am getting un-patient." he then growled

" Yeah Ronin you are always the arse, Help Zinora relocate her family when she has a plan, listen to her as you would listen to me and get it done look after them I have some-one to visit, then I am going home to my Wife and Kids." without another word Ezen got to his feet and walked away disappearing almost faster than he appeared.

Jacob leaned up against a tree beside Lincoln he hit his head several times pulling his knees up to his chest then lowering his head, he took a deep breath as he looked back on what just happened.

( Jacob's POV Memory )

" Calais," This man called as if he knew me, though something about him seemed familiar, a voice in my head was telling me to obey and respect him.

" I am Prince Jacob, I do not know a Calais," I replied, He nodded lowering to my ear, as he began to speak that temper of mine ripped away all of my sanity.

" You are going to hate yourself," He said softly.

" You think you are the only one that wants her there are several god's involved they will claim her, Hell I might even claim her." I felt something take over me as my head snapped toward him the color's around me seemed brighter clearer. 

" Calais,"  he whispered I attacked taking everyone including myself by surprise everyone but the man in front of me, He moved quickly defending himself a smile on his face, he was faster than my eyes could see at times or maybe he just wasn't there and I was striking angrily at a hallucination, the one chance I did get to hit him I threw my hand out fast and hard before making contact I hit the ground like a falling tree, I shook my head a little dazed then growled looking up at the women I love everything turned darker, I took hold of her throat every thought in my head was against this action but my body reacted on its own, her arms swung up between mine forcing my arms to sperate my hands lost it's grip on her she quickly clapped both my ears a ringing noise consumed my head as I grabbed hold of it again before I knew it I was a few meters away from her on the ground what the hell just happened? while thinking about everything lincoln hit the ground beside me even though he wasn't hurt the pain in his eyes told me I had just f****d it up.

" We need to rest Old friend,"  said Lincoln all of a sudden, his mind was at work as he watched Ariella leave.

" We need a plan and tomorrow's race can help with that, You need to rest so you can run them pup's into the ground,"  He got to his feet and held out his hand to me.

"  do not screw it up tomorrow Jacob or I will never speak to you again, understood,"  I took his hand as he helped me up.

"  Understood, "  I replied.
