"Young Master, time to go to school!" Susan, the butler of the Mores family gently tapped Vince shoulder while he was sleeping sideward on his king-sized bed.
Vince was Jon's and Halley's only child. He was just six years old but his way of thinking was way higher than his age. In short, he had a high IQ. But a little bit low in EQ for at his age, he was already adorably arrogant. "Hrmm! School is boring! I'd rather go to my dad's company and sit on his executive chair like a real boss!" he whimpered as he covered his face with his pillow.Susan who was a middle-aged woman knew exactly Vince's character. She chuckled at his whine and tapped his back again. "Come on! We can tell your father about your wish. Who knows he would agree!" she said trying to convince him with her little trick.Then Vince suddenly turned around and lay flat staring sternly at her. "Aunt Susan, do you still think you can trick me with that childish alibi huh?" he snorted which made the middle-aged woman blush in embarrassment."Ahu! I forgot I am talking to a genius at the moment!" Susan covered her embarrassment by praising him. Vince may be genius but he was still a kid after all. He immediately smiled at Susan's praise towards him.He was about to get up when he heard a tiny cry outside of his room. "Is that a new toy? A talking doll? I am not a girl. Whoever gave that as a present is stupid and he or she is insulting me!" he suddenly got mad thinking the baby's cry was from a toy doll. Susan laughed out loud at his hysteric reactions. She stroked Vince's head which made him frown even more."Vince, that is not a toy. That is your new sister!" she corrected as she stared deeply at him."What? No way!" he exclaimed in disbelief as he hastily jumped out of his bed. He went straight towards the grand staircase and there he saw his parents holding a newly born baby girl.His eyes narrowed as he felt tingling jealousy from the baby when his parents were smiling from ear to ear while coaxing her. He strode downstairs with heavy steps which made Jon and Halley stunned."Oh! There you are. Good thing you are awake now little man!" his father spoke as he carried his son and brought him closer to his mother who was happily carrying Princess Ariya.Vince took a glimpse at her. His little eyes narrowed as his well-shaped brows furrowed. He struggled to come down from his father's tight hug."Who's the ugly baby?" he suddenly asked while his sharp-pointed nose wrinkled.Halley just slightly laughed at his obvious jealousy. She stroked her son's head and said instead, "Don't call her ugly. From now on she is going to be your baby sister. Her name is Arianna!""That's magic! How did you two make an instant human in one night?" he raised his eyebrow while innocently asking his parents a vulgar question. He even placed his little hands on his waist."Vince! I will never allow you to say that again. Promise me, you will never ever say that again, do you understand?" his father advised him as he bent his knees to level his stare at his own son's eyes."Okay! I will keep my word. But why do I need a sister? I am happy on my own!" he still snorted as he taunted Princess Ariya who was at that time staring at him.Their little eyes had met. Vince felt something unusual as he gazed at her. The same thing with the princess, she felt like she heard her mom's voice. "He will protect you with all his heart and soul. Stay with him at all times!" Queen Ayana softly whispered in her thoughts. "Vince, aren't you supposed to be having your breakfast now? It's time for you to go to school!" his mother reminded as she looked at her husband's wristwatch."Mommy, the school is boring. Can I go to Mores Developers instead?" Vince stubbornly asked as he gave his mom a puppy eye. The Mores Developers was Jon's inherited company from his parents and it had been standing tall for three decades now. "Well, I can bring you to the company this afternoon and we will go and see the new hotel that we are building near the lake. You have to attend to your classes in the morning first!" his father suggested rather which made his lips twitch."Alright! Promise me, you will pick me up at school!" he repeated before he walked towards the dining room."I promise! Now, go and have your breakfast!" Jon smilingly replied while shaking his head."Your son is as stubborn as you!" Halley lovingly complained as she followed her son's direction with her gaze. Princess Ariya was just quietly listening to them. She understood what was going on. She moved her hands and her tiny fists as she giggled. Her voice stunned the two people in the living room for it was like a siren. That was probably the most beautiful giggle they had ever heard from a baby."This child is really giving me some mystery!" Jon said internally. "She is so beautiful!" Halley happily whispered..
Meanwhile, near the stream...Sira was watching the Mores family from the reflection on the water. She was delighted to see that they had welcomed the princess wholeheartedly. Also, when she saw the shadow of Queen Ayana beside her daughter when Vince was staring at her; she already had a tacit understanding. She imprinted Vince with the princess right away. When their eyes had met, that was the start of their strong connection to each other. Indeed, it was true! For even when Vince was at school, he couldn't forget Princess Ariya's deep black eyes."Why do I have such an ugly baby sister? Mom and dad can just give me a real white puppy than a baby that looks like a puppy instead!" he complained in silence as he propped his chubby cheeks with his fists while his elbows were resting on his small school desk. "Vince, what are you thinking this time?" his teacher Honey asked in amusement.Vince looked at his favorite teacher in Science and said, "Miss Honey, if I will give you a gift which one do you like better? A baby that looks like a puppy or a puppy that is as cute as a baby?" Miss Honey was flabbergasted with his puzzled question that she chuckled before she answered. "I will choose a baby that looks like a puppy because it is cute!" "Boy! You are just like my parents. Your minds are deteriorating. I suddenly don't want to grow up!" he blurted out as he sat straight and shook his head.Miss Honey laughed at his statement including his classmates who were attentively listening to him. Little Vince had no idea but the princess heard everything he had just said about her in her thoughts. Since their connections had started, Princess Ariya could hear Vince even from a far distance.As time passed by, Princess Ariya grew up more beautiful each day while Vince was becoming more attractive and distant.At the age of six, the princess was already the darling of the crowd in their school. She was not only beautiful but she also possessed intelligence that most girls older than her age envied.She skipped a couple of grades that she only took a year in kindergarten and now she was in the fourth grade in elementary.The same with Vince, now a twelve-year-old was already in his last year in high school. Next year he would attend college and he planned to study overseas."Brother Vince, is it true?" Princess Ariya asked while pouting her cute kissable lips."True, what?" Vince coldly asked back.Since she was a baby, he remained cold and distant to her adopted sister. But the princess always brushed aside his aloof character towards her. She became closer to him instead and most of the time, she had fun pestering him especially when he was busy studyi
It was Sports Day at Vince private high school where some students from other schools could visit theirs.Since he was a basketball player, he was tasked to represent their school to compete with the team. Their coach was busy training them day and night for their opponent was one of the best in their country.Vince just started joining the Wolf Pack that semester but he always watched the team play whenever he had time.There was one particular player in the other team that his coach told him to guard. That was Scott Thompson, also in senior year.His skin feature was whiter than Princess Ariya in a way that people would think blood wasn't running through his veins. His face was also always cold and stiff like he was always in pain. He was tall and attractively charming.His skill in everything especially in sports was beyond perfection. He was fast and strong.Girls in school always cheered for his name every time they saw him but in contrast, he remained stern a
In the kingdom of vampires... "Your half-bred heir had smelt the enemies' key of existence!" Augustus, the king of Vampire spoke. He was sitting on his throne while his son Damien was kneeling before him. "Yes, my king. Her scent had unfolded the entire stadium!" Damien reported. He was talking to his own father but he still had to bow his head before him. Not because, his father hated his half-human grandson but because he wanted to show to his vampire clan that in their blood, there were no such things as a family! "Then bring forth someone to follow that scent!" he roared as he rose from his throne. "Yes, my king!" Damien left immediately. Upon shutting the arch-shaped wide door, king Augustus turned to a bat and went through a small hole down to the alley of the ancient palace. He transformed into a vampire upon his black boots stepped on the cold brick ground. The place was a prison full of mice and webs. Obviously
Meanwhile at the hospital..."Brother Vince, what happened to you?" Princess Ariya's tiny cries crisped on the four corners of the VIP ward.Vince was lying unconsciously on the bed with a bandage wrapped around his body and on his head."Coach, how did this happen?" Halley was also shocked when she saw her son's condition.It was not normal at all. It was a heavy fall at the basketball court but Vince looked like he had a car accident."Mrs. Mores, to be honest, we also have no idea. I just went back from the school a while ago and had checked the CCTV but it was something..." the coach was reluctant to tell what he had seen. He glanced at Vince and touched his forehead.By that time, Jon had just arrived. When the principal of Crestview High told him about what happened to his son, he left his work at the construction site and drove off like a lightning."Please coach, tell us!" Halley was now panicking."What happened to my son?" Jon roared and couldn't he
Time had passed and Princess Ariya was now ten years old. Her power was starting to emerge. She had the combination of all of the superpowers of King Silas' loyal subjects except for Vashti's.Her bluish-purple eyes could turn to a laser beam like Gasphar. She could move objects with her mind like her cousin, Rubio. And she was a siren, like Sira.She might not be able to foretell the future like Vashti but she had gotten Vashti's strength and skill in combats. Of all the white wolves, she had the complete package!On the other hand, Vince's plan to study in the US was granted. He was already sixteen years old and because of his good looks, brilliance, and height; most girls in the university chased after him. But there was one particular girl whom Vince liked. That was Isabelle!Isabelle was also like Vince. A genius at the age of sixteen. She was beautiful with long black hair and a skin-white complexion. She was tall and had a beautiful figure. She was also po
Katrina tried to hide Princess Ariya when the grandfather clock in the living room struck twelve. They stealthily crept downstairs to avoid Vince.Upon arriving at the entrance door, the lights from the chandelier in the living room suddenly lit up. Vince's dark face made them almost jump to their feet."Young Master!" Katrina exclaimed in a whisper."Princess you must do something!" she talked to Princess Ariya in her mind.The princess looked up at her before she shifted her stare at her brother.Vince was slowly walking towards them."Didn't I tell you this morning, don't bring her to dangerous places? Katrina, where are you taking my sister?" he roared as he held Princess Ariya's soft hand and brought her closer to him. He was shocked by the softness of her hand that he glanced at his sister for a while."Go back to your room. Get to sleep. Forget what you saw tonight. Hurry! Have a sweet dream!" Princess Ariya was already talking to him in his mind using th
When Princess Ariya turned ten three months ago, both Sira and Katrina prepared for their birthday surprise. That was to tell her who she really was!"Master, what if the princess freaked out?" Katrina asked Sira in her thoughts."Princess Ariya will never freak out not unless something bad will happen to the Mores!" Sira explained.Sira was telling Katrina that she could adapt to changes well. That was their natural wolf instinct. Not unless one of them in the pack got hurt or in danger, the white wolves roared their hearts out. Just like what happened to Vince at his school four years ago.They polished their plan well. They also controlled Jon's mind. Since he was the one who saw the princess in front of their iron gate when she was a baby, he had to serve as their bridge to let Princess Ariya understand better."Daddy, where are you taking me?" Princess Ariya asked while Jon held her soft hand."I am taking you to our maze garden. There is a bench there where w
In Prince Damien's place...The prince of vampire's place was an ancient castle just a bit smaller than his father's castle. It was set at the foot of the highest mountain in their kingdom.While he was sitting straight to his king's throne single chair in five steps high platform in front of the wide empty and cold ballroom hall, he spoke in archaic terms to the person bowing around fifty meters away from him."Speak! Hear me a piece of pleasant news!" his cold voice escalated the whole ballroom hall."According to my spy, Silas loyal subjects gather in their thoughts almost every day with no random time!" Anton sternly announced.His voice was strong and heavy when he lifted his head and talked to Prince Damien. He may be the vampires' dog now but deep inside he condemned the whole idea."Does your mole aware of their subjects?" Damien stood up gracefully and slowly walked down the five steps of his throne."No, he doesn't. He can't connect with them!" Anton r
