Ira is James’ first cousin and considers him her brother. When James is in trouble she packs her bags and sets off to help him. Little does she know that her own life would change when she agrees to accompany Kirra’s beta, Noah to the battleground. Now a little about the world. Witches follow the Order of the witches that has an arm in every continent. The Order of the witches is led by the Keeper of The Orb who resides on Mt Kailash in the Himalayas. Each contingent has a head who leads the Order in that continent. Witches are broadly divided into, Amenables, the ones who follow the laws laid down by the order and are empathetic to other species. Recalcitrants, the ones who dabble in dark art and believe that they are meant to rule the world. They work alone. Every witch derives her/ his power from the element that is strong in her. They can perform advanced magic by channelising it through a magical tool. In the absence of the magical tool, they can perform only the base magic that aligns with their elemental personalities. They pray to the Moon God. Werewolves. They live in clans which overarch the packs. Clans are the higher wolves who care for and are responsible for one or more packs and have one Alpha and Luna. Each pack has its own set of Alphas and Lunas that report to the clan Alpha. Beta’s are second in command, Gammas are strategists who protect the packs/ clans and lead the warriors, deltas are responsible for feeding and nurturing while omegas are the service people and service wolves. Deltas are close to the Lunas as they work closely in helping with the social structure of the clan/ pack. Australia has seven main clans that correspond to the geographic territories of the continent. Only humans in the higher government levels know about the mysterious beings as they are protected by a law of secrecy. Lycans. There are few Lycans left on the planet although they are the strongest and live the longest. Werewolves and Lycans pray to the Moon Goddess. Yara-ma-yha-who are blood sucking creatures that continue to suck blood from their victims, swallow and spew out their victims. They repeat this cycle until the victims get converted into another yara-ma-yha-who I believe this should be an introduction enough for you to enjoy Taming the Rogue King to the fullest. While reading the book, if you feel extra information would better your experience, please comment. I will add that information to this introduction. So here you go... Dive right in and enjoy the world of The Rogue King ***This prologue plays out after a few chapters*** 28th Jan 2018, Morning Ira No matter what, Noah couldn’t imagine the beautiful, fragile-looking librarian, Ira, killing anyone. But they were out here in the middle of a full-blown war. Skeptical about her skills, he tried to talk some sense into her. “....and how are you planning to kill? Since you are neither a werewolf nor a witch? You won’t last even seconds in that fierce battle!” “I have Draco!” She proudly declared, as if that explained everything. She had been able to negotiate with James and borrowed Draco for this battle. It was no easy feat. James, her cousin, one of the most powerful witches of Australia, was very possessive of his magical artefacts. The only reason she had been able to get Draco from him was because his mate Kirra and her wolf clan was in mortal danger. Obviously, Ira was super proud of herself! Not only that, for the first time in her life, she was involved in a bloody battle. She was stoked! Noah c*cked an eyebrow, “Draco?” She opened her palm gently and a small bearded dragon lizard sat perched on her palm looking at her with beady eyes. ”Hi Draco,” she cooed at the ugly creature who pranced on her hand and fanned out its beard. Noah was Kirra’s Beta. He had agreed to let Ira accompany him only to ensure that Kirra stayed back in the pack lands for a strategic meeting. This meeting would her the Blue Moon Clan sign an alliance with all the major packs of Australia. Lately, the trouble with rogues had increased a lot. Kirra’s best friend and best friend's mate were both abducted by the rogues. Kirra’s delta, who happened to be Noah’s mate, was also missing. Now he wasn’t sure if letting Ira accompany him was such a great decision. She was from one of the most powerful witch families, but she wasn’t a witch. The only witchy thing about her was her youth and her ability to judge emotions. Noah pursed his lips and shook his head. “These lizard venoms do nothing to werewolves. You stay here in this bubble, I will go to fight. I shouldn’t have gotten you along!” The travel bubble that James had conjured for them was super safe. It was invisible to the non magical beings and protected people inside it from the basic spells. He hurriedly stepped out of the safety of the travel bubble and ran towards the battle, shifting into his wolf form as he picked up speed. He did not give a second thought to his clothes tearing apart as he turned into his cream coloured wolf and gave a fierce howl to announce his war cry. Ira looked at him go and thought, ‘stupid, impatient wolves!' She stepped out of the bubble gracefully with little Draco still perched on her palm. A group of wolves from Kirra’s clan ran past her and joined the fight. She had to be quick. Their fifty warriors had just joined the fight, but the battle was raging on as more and more rogues joined the battle. The rogue numbers were phenomenal. She could discern their weird scent. Wrinkling her nose, she sat down and placed Draco on the forest floor. She gently rested her palm on his tiny head and said to the adorable creature, “Draco my boy, rise up and do the bidding of your master. Do what James has asked you to do. Allow me to lead you.” Draco blinked at her with his beady eyes and started growing in size. ***** *** At the clearing in the woods a few meters ahead *** Rip, snap, tear… The fight raged on. Slowly, but surely, the numbers of warriors from Kirra’s Blood Moon clan started dwindling. They were getting tired, and the rogues were unstoppable. If this continued, they would lose the battle very soon and the loss of lives would be staggering. They would have to give up this border outpost and they would lose part of the pack land to the rogues. After Ira coaxed Draco to do his master's bidding, it took some time for Draco to grow to his full potential. He was soon towering above the trees! As the humongous dragon was ready, it started bobbing its head. It turned away from Ira and aligned the tip of its tail near her feet. Ira climbed on Draco’s back and gently coaxed him towards the battle. The dragon let out a subtle hiss. The sound reverberated through the foliage, the stones, and the trees travelling through the forest floor. Everyone felt it through their skin. Holy s**t! THAT monster is Draco? Noah couldn't believe his eyes. 'This monster is with us!' He mind linked the pack warriors, who were as transfixed as he was when they saw the huge monster move past them, gliding into an effortless flight. The enormous beast took to the skies, breathing fire. Noah commanded the warriors to continue to fight, letting them know the dragon was on their side. His commands and Draco’s dance of death injected fresh vigour into the tired wolves and they started fighting with renewed energy. With the Blood Moon clan's warriors fighting with new hope and Draco going through the rogues like a sledgehammer with teeth, the rogues started retreating, and that’s when it hit Ira! The strongest scent of raw, masculine strength and sage struck her like a bolt of lightning. It distracted her enough for Draco to shake her off himself. She fell on the forest floor amongst the raging wolves. Like a fragile little girl, she looked around as wolves continued to lunge at each other, tearing each other off. From her position, the large wolves were towering all around her. She cursed her clumsiness, she should have held onto Draco more securely. A wolf’s huge paw struck her face and she tasted her own blood from her broken lip. Hopefully, her teeth were still intact. She spat the blood out and reached out to feel her eye. It was angrily swelling up. She had to get out of this madness quickly. She wasn’t cut out for this type of wild mindless killing. She was just a human after all. With no witch powers like her mum and her cousin, James, nor any werewolf super healing powers, this battlefield was a death trap for her. She tried to crawl towards the area where there were lesser wolves. Someone ripped off the jaw of a wolf. She was right below them. The blood drenched her as the lower half of the jaw fell next to her, making her retch and puke. She tried to get up so that she could run. The clearing wasn’t too far now, but as soon as she tried to rise, a terrible pain ripped through her delicate leg. She saw a wolf had dug its canines into her leg, trying to rip it off her body. Her own screams against the pain sounded animalistic. A loud guttural growl that drowned the sound of the battle echoed in the background, stopping all movement around her. “NOOOO!!! MINE!” was the last thing she heard as she fell into blissful painless unconsciousness. ***** Liam  He was commanding his rogues. He was the gifted, ruthless and terrifying Rogue King, but not many people knew about his existence. When he was a toddler, his mother, the powerful and beautiful witch Miriam, had realised that he could command any rogue in their area. She was a tough trainer. She never showed her affection. Affection made people weak and her child was far from weak. He was proud of the way his mother had trained him. He towered at six feet four in his human form and was the largest animal in his wolf form. His Alpha command could not be fought against. She believed in his powers and now he was here, fighting for his rightful land. The Blood Moon Clan was going to pay for what they had done. He had trained his rogues well. Although they were the scums of other clans and packs, he made sure that he took care of them. The best way to use them as resources was to give them a sense of belonging. He was the Rogue King, the mighty Liam King. Rip, snap, tear… His wolves tore through the Blood Moon clan’s warriors. He was tearing a wolf apart when an enormous dragon soared into the sky. What the real f**k? How did Blood Moon lay their hands on a dragon? Their clan was the one against the witches and yet they had found something magical that could help them? His heart raced as he looked at the dragon being led by someone. The reason for his pulse to jump wasn’t fear. It was more primal. It was a strange instinct that wanted to protect the dragon and its rider. The dragon swooped down from the sky, breathing out a ball of fire near him. The ground caught fire and the raging flames scalded a few of his wolves. He admired the skill and aim of the rider. When the dragon passed him, the tropical smell of flowers and frangipani stunned him. How the mighty have fallen for the most inconspicuous reasons! He knew that scent from before. He knew who it was. What the f**k was she doing here in the midst of this madness? What if she falls? What if she dies? The thought froze him and sent a shiver down his body. He could not lose her. Not after living away from her for 12 years. Not after all the sacrifices he had made to keep her safe. His fear and frenzy just reached the highest point when he saw her slip from the crazy monster and land amongst the feral wolves. It was as if everything suddenly turned into slow motion. He could see the wolves around her fighting. She got hurt. One of his wolves bit her leg and tried to tear it apart. The pain shooting through his own leg was unbearable. He could feel her fear, her agony, he was losing her… “NOOOO!!! MINE!” He jumped on one of his own fighters, who was hurting her. He pulled him and slashed his throat, ending his pathetic low-life in an instant. His stop command stilled his rogue wolves. She had passed out with pain and blood loss. He picked her up in his arms, bridal style. The girl was as light as a feather. Her tiny petite body was soft and limp in his arms. What if she does not survive this blood loss? Dread filled his every pore. He couldn’t lose her. She was a gift from the Moon Goddess. The only sunshine in his otherwise dark life. *****
