[P.O.V. Zyston Woods]
The next morning we packed up and marched to the Stone Kingdom. The further we went, the rockier it got. It's not called the Stone Kingdom for no reason. With hours of marching, we made it there. It was night time I want to say about 8:30 ish. Coming out of the tree line, the town was amazing.
Houses and other buildings are made of stone or brick. In the background of the town was a mountainside. Built into that mountainside was the Stone God Castle. In the Stone Kingdom stories, the castle never fell. When the Dark King tried taking it down the first time all those years ago. Even though the castle still stood the town and the King and Queen did fall.
Dwarves and other citizens stood and watched as we walked through their town. Walking out of the town, we headed to the castle. There were tents set up and campfires already made. Before reaching the castle front steps commanding my pack to stop. Tyler and Joseph follow me to the front steps.
A small man with a shaved head and a huge red beard. Walks ahead of the two other Dwarves along with Xander. Meeting me at the bottom steps.
"Alpha King, welcome to my home!" Thodol says, welcoming.
"Great seeing you again, Dwarf King." Shaking hands with another.
"We haven't even had our coronation's yet, but here we are as if we are already King's."
"Just show we respect one another true titles."
"I like that answer." Letting go of hands, he takes his wife's hand. She was a little smaller than Thodol, and she had short blonde hair.
"Xander, it's good to see you made it here, safely." Little proud that he didn't turn on me again.
"It great to see you too, my King." He says respectfully. Ever since the prison, something happened to this kid to respect me. Not complaining just wished he learned another way. So we could have avoided the prison situation.
"Xander is an interesting kid, King Zyston. He told me how he betrayed you and how you gave him mercy, a second chance. I was always told the future Alpha King didn't give mercy. When he told me of this, I was quite shocked." Thodol says with interest.
"Quite honestly, I was too." Telling him truthfully.
"Hmm... I see. Let your Warrior's rest and feast, Alpha King. I will show you your tent, and we will talk in the morning. About this attack that is coming this way." Nodding my head in agreement, I turn to my pack.
"Silver Moon Pack! Rest up!" Commanding them in my Alpha tone. Chorus of "Yes Alpha" ranged, and they went there separate ways. Turning back towards Thodol, he showed me to my tent. It was a little bigger than my Warrior's.
Inside of it was a Queen size bed with different animal pelts on top of the blanket. Tables were also inside of the tent and a small campfire in the middle. Where the campfire wasn't, huge rugs were covering the ground. Lanterns and a few candles help light up the tent.
"We didn't have enough supply to run electricity out to the tents. With this unexpected situation, I hope this is fine." Thodol wife, Glorna says.
"This is more than fine, Queen Glorna. Thank you for hospitality for my Warrior's and myself." Thanking her.
"Your welcome."
"Yes, we'll know that my wife feels better about sleeping arrangements. Rest up; we will talk tomorrow." Thodol says. Nodding my head in agreement, they take their leave. Laying on the bed from exhaustion, not just from the wars or hiking here. Because of the poison running through my veins.
When I was locked up in that prison, I was injected at least three times a day, no more than five. With how much poison was put into my body. It should have killed Travis and Stryker, leaving me mortal. Then I should have died with the tortures they gave me.
Somehow we three survived that prison. Even though we did were still suffering from it because the poison is still hurting Travis and Stryker. It was keeping Travis from healing our body fast like he normally does. Instead were healing a little slower than we like. Making it a little more difficult to do things.
[P.O.V. Dark King]
Everyone calls me the Dark King only because they don't know my real name. Theodore Huntington is my real name. Before I became this puff of smoke of a man. I wasn't a man at all; I was a dragon. Not the kind that could shapeshift into a human. No, I had one form, and that was my dragon. The only reason they're such a thing as a dragon shifter. Is because the Moon Goddess and I mated. How can a dragon and a goddess mate with one another? She gave me a potion to turn me human. I was so in love with her I would do anything. She promised me we could be lovers for eternity. I took this potion and turn human, becoming the first dragon shifter.
Over the years, she created quite a few dragon shiftier's with our lovemaking. But yet, it didn't seem to fill the loneliness she felt. I tried hard to be more than some sex toy to her. But it seems it didn't matter because she has chosen a King. Instead of choosing me to help her. She must have forgotten that werewolves. They are not the only ones that get possessive with their females. Dragons get very possessive over their females as well.
Growing jealous of her love for her King. Instead of loving me as she promised. I tried to kill her King, protecting what claim I had on her and in return. She gets rid of me by casting me out of the heavens and down to earth. With the help of the other God's and Goddess's. Showing how little I mean to her. That's when I decided I would destroy everything they created.
Building up my army and when the time was right. My first attempt to destroy the Kingdom's was an almost success. Until that, Werewolf Queen made me the way I am today. No worries though, I have made a new plan, also along with a stronger army. I will succeed this time one way or another, even if I have to fool a few people to get there.
Like Alexander Parr, He believes that I am going to wipe out the Supernaturals for good. In reality, I'm not going to. A future King of all the Kingdoms needs commoners. Once I get a real body again, I plan on killing the poor fool. If he only knew he was just a pawn to help get me what I want.
Then there Evanora, for years. She has been loyal to me until that Parr came around. I found Evanora almost dead on the forest ground. From slicing her wrists and bleeding herself. Trying to attempt suicide all because she was heartbroken over Vincent Woods.
Stopping her bleeding and saving her life. Offering her revenge and giving her a new reason to live. She served me, unlike any loyal witch would. Because of her loyalty, I planned on making her my true Queen. That was until she fell in love with Parr. Why do the women that seem to love me always betray me? Now because of her betrayal. I have decided to kill her as well once I get my mortal body.
I can't wait to see the look on Selene's face when I take her King's body and abuse her Queen. I will show her to cast me out like I meant nothing to her. Being summoned out to the real world. Alexander and Evanora kneel below me.
"What is it this time?" Asking them annoyingly.
"Zyston has escaped my Lord, and he was there to destroy the army that attacked his Kingdom," Evanora speaks up first.
"Why is it that when you two idiots always come to me, it is bad news?"
That's when they explained how they watched from afar while the army was a slaughter. I also explained to me how to Evanora. Sent one of her Raven spies to the fallen castle. Telling me about Zyston and the other prisoners on how they escaped. Also, tell me how Zyston and his Warrior's marched to the Stone Kingdom. Leaving his Queen back at home alone.
Knowing all this is when I came up with the plan to take the Alpha King, Queen. Allowing Alexander to get some more revenge. On what Zyston did to his wife all those years ago. Except not killing her.
