Chapter 30: The Peace Treaty

Standing outside the hall waiting for the king to call them in,why did the king asked us to leave the hall?, he's alone with Alpha Ken, he might harm the king.

He did be a fool to harm the king, he is surrounded by our warriors, Peter respond to Jonas.

He should have at least let Benjamin join him, he is his adviser, he should be there.

The king can handle the matter without interference of the adviser, Kai respond grumpily to Jonas words.

Benjamin exclaim not reacting to their conversation.

Ken sit facing Kendrick glaring at each other, why have you bring such request to my kingdom?, it clear that we are mortal enemies, it has been like that for centuries, werewolves and vampires hate each other,

I even tried to conquer your pack.

Ken look him in the eye, if it left to me, I wound not be here, but I have to come.

Kendrick smirks, then I see no reason why we have to continue this discussion, looking at Ken with a deadly look.

Ken closes his eyes for some seconds open it slowly look up at Kendrick, this peace treaty will benefit you.

Kendrick laughs, his laugh echo the hall, Jonas place his ear on the door listening, the king is laughing, he look shock, rush to were Benjamin is standing, can you here the kings laugh, has he agreed to the peace

treaty?.

Everyone can hear him, just stay put and wait for the king to decide, Benjamin respond sharply to him.

But am just saying, Benjamin glare at him making him keep quiet without uttering another word.

It will benefit me!, in what way if I may ask, Alpha, he emphasis.

Ken stand up from his sit walking round the hall, your kingdom can never win any war against my pack, you might be strong but can never meet up to the level of a werewolf strength, if you join hands with me no werewolves will ever attack your kingdom because they fall under my territory, if your kin can fight against you it won't be difficult for an enemy to attack.

Kendrick look at him shock,Ken smile softly, the news of the incident that occurred in your kingdom causing your people to lose their lives has spread across the lands.

Why should I trust you that this is not a trick to take over my kingdom.

I don't need a trick to take over your kingdom, I can just wage a war against you.

Kendrick look at him furiously, you said earlier that it wasn't your idea coming here, who sent you?, he ask looking right into Ken's eye.

Ken hesitate to speak, Luna sent me here, it was her idea to join hands with your kingdom.

Luna Arora, Kendrick call out softly smiling.

You know her?, Ken ask with a surprise look on his face.

Kendrick stands up from his sit, yes I know her, have met her before during your father's reign, she is a righteous woman.

So what do you say to joining hands with me.

Kendrick exclaim look him in the eyes intensely for some seconds extend his hand to ken, ken shake his handand smile.

Kendrick walk to the door open it widely looking at his council members looking at him anxiously, Steve and Sam rush inside the hall to Ken, how did it go?, Steve ask with concern.

Benjamin step close to Kendrick, your highness.

Kendrick cut him short, don't give me that look, I accepted the offer.

Relieve show on Benjamin's face, your highness, how can we join hands with an enemy, they held the princess captive for months, what if it's a trick?, Peter freak out.

Compose yourself, Moana pull him back.

He snap Moana away from him, I won't agree to this, this has never happen in the history, he yell out.

Take him out of here, Kendrick order.

Moana look at Kai, take him out, Kai says quietly.

Don't tell me you agree with the king as well, Peter ask kai furiously.

Moana grab hold of him dragging him out of the hall.

Your highness, Peter is right, how can we join hands with werewolves, they are our enemy, they've killed many of our kind, the people will not accept this, Jonas speaks quietly to the king.

Steve smiles happily, you did it, Luna will be proud of you.

I thought they will chase us out of their kingdom but the king accept, how did you do it?.

Ken smile at Sam, whatever his reason is I was able to make the peace treaty happen that all I need.

Your highness as your adviser, I agree with your decision, it is what is best for the people of this kingdom.

What!, how can you say that, Jonas look at Benjamin with dismay.

The council is dismissed, Kendrick says, he turn to Benjamin, escortthem to where they will stay.

I will do so, your highness, Benjamin bow down to him as he walk away.

Benjamin approach Ken, Alpha, allow me to escortyou to where you will stay, Benjamin lead and Ken follow him, Sam stand still, Steve grab his shoulder, let's go.

Elizabeth run inside the room, what your problem running inside my room like that.

Forgive me your highness but you need to hear this.

What is the matter, she speaks nonchalantly, did the king agree to the peace treaty.

Yes your highness, the king has agreed to join hands with Blackwood pack.

What!, jasmine stand up from the bed looking at Elizabeth, are you sure?.

Yes my queen, it has been decided, the king decision has got everyone worried, the news has spread all over the kingdom.

I will go see the king, Jasmine walk out of the room angry stops on her track the minute she sees Kendrick approach him, is it true that you agreed to the peace treaty?, she ask fuming with anger.

It is as you are told, he walk pass her and walk to his room, Jasmine follow him in, You agreed to it, how could you, no one in the kingdom will want to have anything to do with the werewolves, you hate them,

you've conquered several of their packs, you think they will forgive you for that?, it will never be, they will never forgive you for harming their kind and you want to join hands with them, Jasmine shake her hand, it

will never be.

Have decide to choose peace that's why I join hands with Blackwood pack even though I hate werewolves.

Peace!, you of all people want no peace, Jasmine look at him with disbelieve, you are a man that cause havoc in several packs, you slaughter any werewolf in your sight, but now you choose to join hands with them in the name of peace, Kendrick you are not a man of peace.

Believe whatever you want, have decided and no one, he look jasmine in the eye, no one dares to go against my decision, not even you the queen of this kingdom, Kendrick speaks with a dominating voice.

Elizabeth stand laying on the door eavesdropping on their conversation.
