*Prince Vincent*

After almost taking a whole day of travelling from the airport of Europe into our very own City. The plane landed safely where a car is waiting for my return, along with my father's warriors in another vehicle we finally made it to the Langston Palace. It feels so much like it's too long ago before I came back to this place and a lot has happened. Some changes in the Palace's front yard and garden, it is even more beautiful than I remember.

"Welcome home Prince Vincent! So glad your back."

The loud voice of the wizard in the Palace, and one of the person I trusted the most greeted me along with few of the Palace's servants and warriors behind his back.

"Maleficus! How are you old man? It's good to see you!"

Flashing  my pearly white teeth and taking a quick step closer towards the smiling face of the old man which I remembered to be my companion in most of my childhood years, my hand automatically wrapped around him and pick up his tall and skinny figure from the floor. I lifted him up before he could even made a protest. He weighs nothing against my strong arms.

"Damn it! You did not have to show me how stronger you have become, Vincent!"

He squeezed my arms and break free from my hold. I put him down quickly before he gets annoyed, I have missed him like how a grandchild misses his old man. My two companions chuckled behind my back, the look in their eyes is filled with amusement and so are the Palace's servants and few warrior guards.

"Hey, you remember my two friends. Alex and Caleb right?"

Alex move forward  and straightened out his arm for a handshake, which Maleficus promptly accepted. Then Alex followed doing the same, they both respects Maleficus.

"Of course I do! I know that the great son of the Alpha King has two strong warriors with him who will swear to protect him with their lives. I know very well about what's going to become of the three of you."

Maleficus moves his head and his sight is directed to each one of us alternately. Alex acted like the wind gets chilly and rubbed both of his arms while grinning.

"Now, that sounds creepy."

Caleb commented with a smile. We are all aware of the old man's ability to see the future and his absolute visions.

"Alright, make sure you guys get some rest. Tomorrow we will have a meeting with the Alpha King and Beta Derek."

"Thank you Maleficus, we will see ourselves out and find to the Palace's guest chambers before you say something that would make me go back to Europe."  Alex humored.

I turned to connect my eyes with both of Caleb and Alex before they turned around and exited the huge door. They are not new to the Palace, they have spent most of their time with me since that day I met them at the school.

My smile faded when I look around, wanting to see if he is here.  Does he even know that I am coming back? I took out a deep breath which made Maleficus sighed, he clearly understood whom I was looking for.

"You get some rest too Vincent, I know you aren’t exhausted by the flight but you need to get yourself into your best condition tomorrow. The fight which you will lead in the City is not going to be an easy task. It is to be won. Your father is relying in you since he is occupied at the moment with some issues that took place in the Palace the previous night."

My eyes lit up and I grinned confidently. "Of course! Do not worry about it Maleficus, I would rather not come back in the Palace if I am to lose the first fight that I will have with the rogues. I also know that my father is always busy and I did not expect him to come see me in my return."

It is an arrogant remark however, I am determined to make my father see how strong I have become. The old man nodded and squeezed my right shoulder with his hand. "I will call a Palace servant to take your things into your room and prepare a really good meal for you and your friends."

"That's alright Maleficus, the three of us plan to have a hunt at dawn. We've missed the fun in the vast forest outside the Palace, where we used to fill our stomachs up to our heart's content. We needed a good run."

His eyes turned into a calmer state and he nodded his head in agreement. "Please make yourself full and ready for the fight Vincent. Your father will discuss everything tomorrow."

It was a comment meant to give me a piece of his mind and yet I feel like he is more worried than I thought. The first fight of my life, these are the words that echoed right inside my head. My heart is beating in excitement and the blood inside my veins boils in rage. If the Moon Goddess makes me fail, I will suffer my father's remorse and anger. So I've decided to use all my strength and fought hard until the last breath came out of my lungs.

"Why do I get this feeling that you worry too much old man?"

I winked and grinned to hide the tiny fear which is beginning to tear a fragment from the inside of my chest. I know that there is no room for this feeling right now, specially that the fight is happening in just a few days time. 

"Just don't get hurt Vincent, and focus on the strength within you. You have the ability to surpass whatever power you have in the moment. Discover your true purpose not just the reason that you needed to prove to your father. You are destined for a greater purpose since that day your mother is blessed by the Moon Goddess to carry you inside her womb."

My vision got a little bit blurry when the corner of my eyes become misty due to the emotions rising in my heart, but I blinked the threatening tears away and toughened up myself. I should be hearing this deep concern from my father but instead I am listening to it from the old man. However, a tiny smile formed in the corner of my lips.

"You have to be more confident towards me Maleficus, I am stronger than the enemy and I will win no matter what. So do not worry too much!" 

We ended our conversation with my assurance to him that I will win the fight, and I swore to the Moon Goddess that i might lost a limb but I will never be defeated. The enemies will vow down to me and follow the Royal pack like how my father did with the rogues that attacked the Palace since the previous years.

The night in my big room brought back memories. As I lay my back in the soft and wide Venetian King size bed, I couldn't help but wonder where my father is. What he has been doing and why he was not eager to see me after so many years. I may not be close to him but I think about him everyday. He is the reason why I am alive in this world, him and my mother. I was wonderfully  made, out of their love for each other. I wonder how my mother is like, how does my own father showed her his love and what if she is really still alive?

The enchanting chandelier hanging in the middle of my room have caught my attention, it wasn't there before. It look sparkly and glorious, unlike the old one which is made of gold. This new chandelier has sparkly lights and drapes of silver strings hanging beautifully and a dream catcher is hanging in the middle. Now I know who did a great job of  renovating my room. Great job Maleficus!

I sighed and close my eyes, naked under the thick covers. I only have a few hours of rest before Caleb and Alex wakes me up for the hunt. We needed fresh blood to get more strength as a wolf, it's our most basic food.

    * Ashley *I look at Maleficus wondering if the words he just told me is right. What on earth is happening?

I know that he will come all the way as soon as he heard through the mind link that I am injured. I have confidence that Maleficus can heal me if he learns about the poison in my body and at this moment he already knew."Right away wizard Maleficus!"Alex answers while he takes most of my weight over his shoulder and help me out of the car."No need to grab me like a child, I can take care of myself!"To be seen helpless in the eyes of my warriors and not to mention the scent of my father getting near, made me use my remaining strength in trying to keep myself stood still and avoid the help of my friend."Welcome home my son!

As my body transformation is finally obtained I notice how his coat bristles and his ears begin to stood more erect. The words he cried out inflicting a noisy mess from my warriors behind me."Oh! Let me tell everyone that, no one should interfere in this battle! This is just between me and the Prince!"He reminded everyone in a loud roaring voice, to let the wolves behind me cease their noise. I look at my warriors once more. "Stay back! Whatever happens, do not stop me from this fight!"I look at Alex and knew that he is just waiting for my command and he can't do anything without it. He is ready for the figh
