Chapter 1
The alpha king sits majestically on his throne, exuding an aura of power, strength, and wisdom. His presence was imposing and commanding.
He's wearing a regal purple robe with intricate gold embroidery, symbolizing his status as a just and fair ruler, or so he appears as. The robe flows around him like a river of fire, accentuating his broad shoulders and powerful physique.
A gleaming gold belt cinches his waist, adorned with a glittering, diamond-encrusted buckle in the shape of a wolf head, The buckle seemed to roar with fierce majesty.
On his head, the king wore a golden crown, its delicate filigree sparkling with diamonds and rubies.
His eyes, piercing and wise, seem to bore into the souls of those around him as if sizing them up and discerning their true intentions.
He has a scar on his left eyebrow, showing off his fearlessness, his dark hair perfectly combed backwards, with a few strands of grey hair.
"mighty ruler of the park, what trouble you, "says Zeus with both hands lifted, his palms facing the sky
" Servant I smell a foreigner: one who's not a Darkhunter," says the alpha king his left ear moving slowly
Almost immediately another servant by name Wang steps into the king's quarters in haste.
"Mighty ruler of the park, please allow me audience'' he says with both hands lifted, and a head bow
"Granted speak! My patience runs dry these days; I have these ominous signs that keep me thinking." the alpha king replies loudly.
"Mighty ruler it's Pythia who seeks a moment with you," he announces, with a head bow.
"Bring him to me; Pythia doesn't walk except prompted by the moon goddess ", the Alpha king replies.
"Yes might one" Wang says
Wang comes in, with Pythia.
Pythia's appearance is both striking and unsettling. His eyes are milky white, devoid of sight, yet seeming to see right through everything, and everyone.
His long, silver hair falls to his shoulders, framing his gaunt, age-lined face with his silver colour brows.
A delicate, crystal-tipped staff rests in his bony fingers, pulsing with a soft emerald glow. Despite his frail appearance, there's an aura of quiet power, and wisdom surrounding him, as if he holds secrets and mysteries beyond the understanding of mere folks.
" Mighty ruler, I am afraid I bring no good news " he says with a head bow
" Speak Pythia, even I can feel the turmoil that awaits us, last night I dreamt of my father, his gaze was a sad one, he could feel the turmoil far beyond," the alpha king says nodding his head in sadness
" If you could promise to spare my head, then surely I'll unfold the warning from the moon goddess," he says
" You may proceed" the king agrees
" Mighty one, the moon goddess sees
bloodshed, she sees pain, and torture she sees your bloodlines in confusion, in this forever darkness within my eyes, I see two sons of the young master, one legitimate and the other illegitimate they both fight over the throne killing each other in the process
" he reveals with a head bow.
As soon as the king hears this, he's talking back, almost falling to his chair, staring blankly for a few seconds.
" What can be done to salvage this darkness "he says facing Pythia, with a raising eye braws
" Mighty one, the young prince just unleashed his inner wolf two full moons ago, I suggest we lock him up for now and find him a mate, we must stop him from getting two women pregnant, he must never see any other woman aside his mate, " says Pythia, " says Pythia
" Indeed we must change his destiny" the alpha king agrees
The underground chamber, at the side of the alpha quarters chamber, remained unused for several decades, it is already covered in both old and new smells of dust even though the furniture was already weak, rusty, and old
Wang alongside other servants work together to bring the chamber's old glory
"Wang, why did the alpha king suddenly order us to clean this old chamber?" Zeus asks, with his dusty hand on his chin; he's in his servant's robe blue coloured with a plain pair of shoes, and his hair is neatly wrapped into a bun.
" To avert terror, to change destiny" Wang reveals
" By locking the young master up, I do not undermine the power of the moon goddess, but if there's one thing I know it's that destiny always prevails " Wang chips in
" I know about unchanging destiny, but we've all got to try our best to advert it, as long as he remains here …his seed..that seed that promised calamity will remain unawakened, this is the only way " says Wang
" No Wang " Zeus draws himself closer to Wang the only way around this is to chain his inner wolf and feed him the wolf diminishing potion " Zeus retorts
" Zeus, what are you initiating ?" Wang whisper
" Believe it or not it's the only remedy, the potion should be fed to him after his consummation, or his genitals should be cut off instead" says Wang laughing
" I agree with you though the most preferred remedy is to cut off his genitals after his heir is birthed, but if he remains trapped here for long the problem will be solved temporarily
"says Wang while cleaning the table
Wang picks up a wooden broom and climbs a wooden ladder, all efforts on the cobwebs that lay lingering on the roof.
While Zeus uses a rag to clean the furniture, when they are done making the chamber habitable they report back to the Alpha's chamber
" Mighty ruler the task assigned to us has been completed" they both say in uniform, with a bow
The Alpha king clears his throat and rubs his beard with his right hand
" go bring the young master, " says the Alpha king
"Wang and Zeus slowly walk into the young master's chamber; on reaching there, the young master is sitting in his study; it is so like him, his head buried in a book.
The young master sat poised and confident at his reading table, surrounded by towering shelves of leather-bound books and soft, golden lighting.
His presence was commanding, yet relaxed.
He wore a majestic, sky-blue robe with an embroidery of a full moon on the chest that seemed to shimmer and dance in the soft light. The robe was draped elegantly around his broad shoulders and powerful physique, accentuating his youthful energy.
A delicate, silver belt in the shape of a wolf head held the robe together at his throat, adding a touch of subtle sophistication to his overall demeanour. His eyes, piercing and intelligent, shone like bright stars in the night sky as he scanned through the books.
His dark hair was perfectly messy as if he had just risen from a refreshing slumber, and his strong, chiselled features seemed carved from the finest marble. His full lips pressed together in a firm, determined line as if he were devouring the knowledge contained within the pages of the book.
Zeus had sneaked a few of his favourite books into the inner chamber after cleaning
" Young master, the Alpha king seeks your presence, " says Wang.
