---------------- Orleans ----------------
---- The Werewolf Clan ----
In the forests, a lot of wolves were running, passing all the bushes and crushing all the small twigs coming in their way, all wolves were gathering somewhere. They stopped amidst the forest, in front of a grey-colored wolf. All the wolves lowered their head in respect to the grey wolf standing before them.
"Go and find all those blood-suckers."
The grey-colored wolf growled loudly, his voice full of rage and determination. Hearing him growl all the wolves quivered in fear and the birds flew away.
All the wolves bowed again and ran away in groups in different directions, except those who were with him before, they were his guards and his subordinates.
"Do I have to repeat myself for you?"
"But, Your Highness we can't leave you, His Majesty told us to protect you and always stay by your side.", a wolf with creamy-white colored fur said to him, stepping toward him.
"You think I am a pup", he again growled loudly glaring at the creamy-white wolf, out of fear the creamy-white wolf took a few steps back.
"I want those vampires in front of my eyes before dawn, find them all. I am going in a different direction and you go the other. No need to come with me."
"Yes, your highness, we will catch them all", the creamy-white color bowed and left from there with other wolf guards. Even though it was their king's order but the wolf it'll be no good to disobey him, because it'll be digging his own grave.
After they left, the grey wolf also ran from there.
The Grey wolf was one of the Prince of the Werewolf Clan, Alaric Fenrisulfur. He was notorious for his temper, there were horrible rumors about him in both clans. One of the rumors says that he killed his infant cousin, the firstborn child of the current king when he was just twelve and ate him alive when he wasn't even a month old to avoid any hurdle in his coronation.
His father the previous king died when he was too young, and the throne was temporarily given to his uncle, the previous king's younger stepbrother, the current king, Ernouf Fenrisulfur until Alaric turn sixteen. Using the incident as an opportunity, the King expelled Alaric from the castle and send him away to live on the outskirts of the kingdom with a few maids and guards. Alaric grew up there alone, due to the rumors no one approached him ever and he grew distant from others. Using the rumors surrounding Alaric as an advantage, the current king postponed the coronation of Alaric. Alaric will soon turn twenty-one now, he has found his mate yet. Neither any reputed and powerful family in the kingdom wants him as their son-in-law nor does he want to get married yet. His biggest goal, for now, is to take back what is rightfully his.
When Alaric turned sixteen, he was given a town, he was sent to, named Whelpstrother, to take care of and protect its citizen with soldiers and other necessary things. He was also given the title of the Grand Duke of Whelpstrother. As some families were devoted to the previous king, they were helping Alaric secretly. Under their influence, they helped Alaric to get Whelpstrother to show his worth as a ruler.
Now, all the wolves were looking for the vampire who came into their clan illegally. It was reported that some wolves have seen some people with red eyes wandering in the town.
Running into the forest, Alaric found an unfamiliar scent, he followed the smell. The scent led him to a tree, whose trunk was hollow and big enough for a vampire in human form to hide. He growled and throw his claw inside, he felt his nails tearing something. He pull out his claw and saw blood on the tips of his nails.
He took a few steps back.
"Come out, if you don't want me to destroy this tree with you inside."
No one came out, there was just silence.
"Your death is inevitable, I promise if you came out now your death will be less painful", No one came out.
Alaric roared and took a few steps back to pounce. Before he could crush that trunk a voice came out from there.
"We are coming out, please spare us."
From that trunk, two bats flew out, one of them was a male and the other one female, they were a vampire couple. They knew there was no escape for them, the wolf is notorious in the whole of Orleans.
They transformed themselves into human forms and stand in front of him.
After they came out, Alaric checked the trunk with his claws, he felt someone in.
"I guess only you decided to die without pain, there are more"
Both the vampires kneeled in front of him, "They are kids, they don't know anything, please spare them and take our lives"
"Didn't you all come here knowing the threat? You all came to my town without me knowing, now face the consequences"
Alaric pounced toward them and rips them apart in one strike, the grey fur of his right claw became red, dipped in the blood of those vampires. Alaric howled, and within a few minutes, some wolf guards in human form came there. Alaric commanded them to take their bodies and told them to pull out the vamps from the trunk and keep them caged.
The guards did as they were commanded. Alaric left from there to find other vamps.
He caught a lot of vampires and kill them, some of them had powers but they were no match for Alaric, he killed them all in a snap.
The hunt came to an end before dawn, they caught more vampires than they estimated. The vampires who were dead, buried in the forest, and those who were still breathing were kept caged.
All the wolves converted themselves into human form including Alaric, Alaric's fur was completely drenched in blood only his golden eyes were visible. They all wore their clothes.
"Your Highness! what should we do with those", it was the creamy-white colored wolf from before his name was Adolph Lupin, he said pointing toward the caged vampires. All werewolves have the same color of their hair as their fur. Alaric has beautiful grey-colored hair, which was filled with blood right now, and the grey color wasn't visible.
"Don't we need some to send back the vampire clan", Alaric buttoned his dress.
Adolph nodded his head, "Your highness, what about the kids, should we kill them too, they are just burdens"
He lifted Adolph by his neck with one hand, "Are you advising me, Adolph?", he said tilting his head, his hoarse voice can creep anyone.
"Yo...Your Highness! I am s..sorry", Alaric squeezed his neck and throw him aside.
"Do as I said? send all of them to the dungeon."
Adolph stood up from the ground, "Yes, Your Highness"
Alaric left for the castle with his guards and subordinate, they passed through the streets of Whelpstrother. The streets were empty, and kids were peeping from their windows to take a glance od Alaric but no one came out they do not want to be seen by him. They reached the castle.
"Your Highness, You should take a bath first before heading to the courtroom", this voice belongs to Freki Draugluin, the only man in the whole kingdom who has Alaric's trust. He was from a powerful family in the Capital which was one of the families who were on Alaric's side. Freki was sent here by his family to help the young prince and to become his subordinate. The Draugluin family suspected the institution of the king from the start and thus sent their son, who was a few years elder than the prince, with guards to protect.
They all went into the castle.
