I put the last of my bags in my dad's Lamborghini huracan, I was leaving master Archibald's house back to my dad's house "I'm going to miss you uncle"I said giving him a tight hug "me too child"he said and gave me a peck on my forehead "you know you are my best student and I have taken you as my child so please don't forget all that I have taught you and I'm sure you would overcome any challenge you are faced with"he said "thanks master"I said "how I wish you don't have to leave"aunt Karen said and I smiled "I have to aunt"I said "can't you just stay with us for few more days at least?"she asked "I wish I could aunt but I have a meeting with the vampire royals"I said "okay but please don't forget us,do come and visit"she said "I can never forget you"I said and she pecked my forehead "we have to go now master"my dad said "bye aunt"I said and she looked like she was going to cry any moment from now and uncle Archibald tried to console her, I waved them a good bye and we left "there's something I have to ask dad"I said as we went driving down the road "which is?"he asked not keeping his eyes off the road "why did the king send for me?"I asked confused "I thought you said he wanted to kill me because I am an hybrid"I added "yeah he did want to kill you before but I talked him out of it to see the brighter picture and so he said that as long as you fought for the goodness of the vampire kingdom you can remain alive"he said "I just hope he isn't up to something really bad and dangerous"I said to myself as we drove into the big compound of my dad's house and I smiled happily feeling at home I was very tired so I quickly ate and slept.
The next day my dad and I were on our way to the palace, I didn't want to go because I had to face the prince who didn't want me and the king who didn't like me but I have to be at the stupid meeting. The car stopped at a very big place "wow the palace is bigger than I thought"I said taking in the place "wait till you see the inside"my dad said as we walked towards the entrance where a maid was standing "welcome my lord"she said bowing down "how are you Pauline?"he asked "fine my lord"she said "I'm ruby lord Dwight's daughter"I said with a smile and her eyes widen a little "I'm so sorry for not greeting you my lady"she said a little bit scared "it's okay Pauly"I said shortening her name and she smiled shyly "common love let's leave 'pauly' to focus on her work"my dad said dragging the Pauly and we walked into the palace "dad where is the meeting going to hold?"I asked "at the meeting room"he said and we walked for sometime till we got to a big double door and a guard at the door opened it and we walked in.
The place was very big and there were set of swivel chairs arranged in a circular form around a big table "welcome my friend,do have a seat" the king said, seated on some of the chairs was the king, queen, prince Adam, prince Arthur,the princess "king Alexander this is my daughter ruby"my dad said "I have met you before" the king said "yes I was the one who graduated"I said "yes you are the one everyone is talking about"the queen said "I am Fiona"the princess said "nice to meet you princess fiona"I said with a smile "do have a seat ruby"the king said and we both sat down "I called this meeting for two reasons"the king said and we all listened attentively "first is you ruby we all know what you are and it is no longer news that you are like a weapon which can destroy every realm so I want you to promise not to harm my people because your father who is a very good friend of mine begged me not to kill you so don't make me change my mind"he said "I promise"I said and he nodded "the second reason why we are here is regarding my son Arthur,who I want Josephine Langford to marry "the king said "but do you think this marriage is good for them?"my father asked "yes Dwight it is, Josephine is a really nice girl and suits my son well"the king said "alright then"my dad said "I also want Josephine to meet some Influential people in the vampire society"the king said"that is not a problem"my dad said "what do you think my love?"the queen asked Arthur "I don't think it is necessary"Arthur said frowning "why?"the king asked "because Josephine is not a queen or a princess and not even my mate,she can't even be my wife because I'm not marrying her"Arthur said "I want you to marry her and that's final"the king said "you don't get to decide for me father"Arthur said getting up angrily "you are my son and so you are to follow my orders"the king said "Arthur please calm down "my dad said "no way why would you force me to marry Josephine, that slut"he said fuming with rage "Arthur I am your father and I know what is good for you"the king said "to hell with whatever you think is good for me that I find uncomfortable"he said and walked out angrily "I am sorry for my son's behavior"the king said "it's okay"my dad said "Dwight I would like your daughter to stay with us for the main time"king Alexander said and princess Fiona smiled "why? hope no problem?"my dad asked "none at all only that I would like to monitor her for sometime and I would love to have another warrior around and I'm also sure Fiona would be very happy having another woman in the palace"he said "alright I'll send her things tomorrow"my dad said "there won't be a need for that just send some of her important things"the king said "okay then"my dad said looking at me "I will take you to your room"princess Fiona said "I would love to have a word with her first"my dad said and took me out of the meeting room to a secluded area "how do you feel about staying here?"my dad asked "good as long as you are okay with it"I said "I know child I just wanted to confirm"he said and pecked my forehead "do come visit"I said "I will"he said and I left with princess Fiona "I am just so happy that you agreed to stay"she said "why?"I asked not finding it too special or exciting "because I like you and I know we will make a great team"she said "a great team for what?"I asked "for making Josephine's life miserable"she said "you don't like her"I asked "why would I"she said opening a door "why?"I asked "you would find out soon, this would be your room it is opposite mine so if you need anything don't hesitate to tell me"she said with a smile and left, the room was really beautiful and it had a big bed and everything was either red or white which I loved, there was a very big bathroom and a big walk-in closet. I entered the big bathroom and had my bath,changed into something comfortable and slept.
