"You cannot marry him,Nina" he held her arms to stop her from walking out on him.Unknown to them they were in Aiden's room.
"Get your hands off me,Blake.You heard my father clearly"Blake couldn't accept it.The anger that surged through him was unexplainable.All his dreams were about to be crushed."That was just the old man's dieing wish.You don't have to do it.""Blake,this is my life and my decision.I want revenge and this seems to be the only way." Nina said"So what? You think you can take on the vampires alone? Don't forget you're a female Nina."That did it.She pointed her finger to his face "Don't ever underestimate me,Blake.Don't you also forget that my mother went to war along with you guys.How many of you survived?!""She died,Nina! She died at last and if you keep on being stubborn you'll end up killing yourself.""I don't need you to care for me.You should go back home to your pack.They need you.""I cannot leave you here.These people will kill You.Let's run away.""For how long would we run? How many more lives would we lose? Axel is dead,a lot more will die if I don't stay here."Aiden listened to their argument.Blake held her arms and brought her close to him.He realized by now that arguing further with her would result to nothing."They're not worth your sacrifice." he spoke softly "Nina lets go home.Together we can save the kingdom""No" she stepped out of his grip "Home? I don't have a home anymore.Besides,I cannot work with a person who thinks so lowly of another human just because she's female."Blake found himself at a loss for words.Nina walked away.He squeezed his hands into a fist.There was no damn way he'd let someone else have Nina.He walked out.* * *"Which of these dresses do you wish to wear for the wedding,my love?"Nina found herself in Damon's chamber surrounded by beautiful but revealing dresses."Isn't..Isn't the wedding too soon?" Nina said with shaky voice.She felt very uncomfortable with the way his hands were all over her."Too soon??" he laughed "I think it's too late-the day after tomorrow.""Alright,but-" she looked around,the room was too large for only a person "-don't you have a mate? I mean,a partner?"His gaze pierced at her sharply.Before she knew it he was right there beside her as she felt a gush of wind."I do." he whispered in her ears "But a vampire can have as many wives as he wants""It is not the same for a werewolf." Nina returned back to him sharply "My mate cannot have another wife."Damon stared at her quietly for a while then he suddenly flashed a smile at her."Watch your little mouth,Luna." his eyes turned red "I can rip your throat out any second.So go on...choose a dress."Nina didn't like any of them."What?" he grabbed her waist,Nina flinched "You don't like any of them?"She nodded."Kiyiya!" he called.A white lady stepped in with hair as red as blood.The clothes she had on could pass for the ones Nina didnt like.Do they wear only revealing clothes here?"Yes,my Lord?" she bowed downNina raised an eyebrow.If this potato-looking man was referred to as Lord then what do they call that green eyed man,what was his name again? Aiden.Damon stared at her.His sharp look made her gasp."Did you just call me a potato?""W-what?" was her thought too loud or could vampires read minds too?"I heard you say Potato.""Ahh...yes..I'm hungry" she smiled,hoping to have convinced him"Kiyiya,get her food and take her to the show room,let her pick a dress.""Yes my Lord""Call me when you need me,wife." he said to her before leaving.Nina followed Kiyiya behind.They crossed series of corners and passages and lastly one invisible wall.Nina wondered how they'd find their way back.They came into a white room with rows and columns of dresses,mostly red and black."Select your choice" she orderedNina walked through the rows and columns.Nothing suited her interest until she arrived at the last row.She loved this one.The only revealed part was the shoulder and cleavage.It was a high low black gown,sleeved in the arms.The legs held a fish net stocking."I love this." she picked it off the hanger."This??" Kiyiya exclaimed in disgust "This is just a simple dress not a wedding one""This is what I want." Nina said firmly.There was no damn way that she'd expose all her body to those blood sucking demons."You can't wear this for your wedding.My lord will not like it""Your lord?" Nina raised an eyebrow "Is he your husband?"Kiyiya was quiet for a while,then "Yes""Oh.How many wicedu does your lord have?""We don't have time for this.Pick another dress.""I don't like any other one.""Suit yourself" Kiyiya suddenly moved quickly towards the door.Before Nina could finish her sentence Kiyiya was no longer there."But I cant find my way back!" Nina changed into the dress and left the room,trying to find her way back through what seemed like the never ending maze.She saw a door,thinking it would lead her else where she pulled it open.Group of vampires who were packed in the room partying felt angry that they were interrupted."Uhm..oops!" she smiled "I didn't mean to-""She's human.Get her!"Nina slammed the door and ran away,although she knew it was useless.They have super speed.Suddenly she felt a hand on her arm pulling her.She thought they'd caught up with her but instead she felt herself landing on something soft with someone on top of her.Nina's eyes flew open to behold a pair of emerald eyes staring down at her with his hands around her.She was on his bed! Her heart raced.How..how did she-Immediately,she found herself standing in another room with Aiden in front of her."I didnt mean to take you to my bed,it was-"Nina wasn't even listening to the rest of his sentence.She didnt know why but anytime she found herself near him her heart beats faster than normal and something in her seemed to want him."You shouldn't leave your room.Not all the vampires acknowledge you here." he turned to leave."Are..arent you their king?" her voice stopped him."I'm not""Do you stay here?""Sometimes." he moved to leave again when Nina went and stood in front of him.She slowly raised her eyes to his."You're half werewolf right? Well-"She didn't wait for his reply."How..how does one feel when she's close to her mate?"New Year's night was great.The most wonderful thing ever.Aiden was coronated King and Damon,the right hand man.Nina automatically became Queen and she chose Kiyiya as her assistant.The greatest thing that would ever happen in the whole land.Nina couldn't at the same time, govern her city and stay with her husband here in Kingdom Fye.So she fulfilled destiny by bringing the two opposite worlds together.She destroyed the hatred and enmity and in place created room for love and unity.Everyone lived in harmony and it was just what she wanted.She was most grateful to her father.He was the first one to believe in her.And at a time she hadn't yet realized her powers.She wished there was a way for her to transport both from the underworld to the real world but Alicia said it was no longer possible.For she could only choose one to stay in forever.And she had chosen here.Kingdom Relf.She changed the name into a unitary and combination of the last two letters of Vampire and Werewolf.
Kiyiya gasped loudly,she glared at him."Let go off me!"He held her still against the wall."Why Kiyiya?" he groaned from within "Why did you hide it from me!" he thundered"Please, Damon.." she looked away,tears filling her eyes "I..I don't want to talk about this!""You will have to! How long will you continue to run?? How did you expect me to make amends if I do not know why you want to end things between us!""I don't want you to make amends!" Kiyiya shouted back "Don't bother! Because I am tired..I can't..I can't do this anymore!" He went quiet for a while."What more can I offer you?! All my life with you has been all lies! I was deceitful! A traitor! After all these,do you still expect me to face you,look you in the eye and pretend all is well?""No" she answered her own rhetorical question.She gazed at him."You've done more than enough for me,Damon" she began "But I never deserved a man like you and I'm not ashamed to admit it""So please.. let's end things before the new
A week later.It was the new year.A week ago after the victory of Nicolina and the beginning of her era,everyone had great plans for the preparations of the new year.They wanted it all in one because it was indeed a new year.It signified the end of the tyrant and the commencement of new friendships.The palace was re-constructed beautifully and by Nina's will did enmity between neighbouring kingdoms, ended.In fact she had summoned for all under Kingdom Fye to attend the upcoming ceremony.Kiyiya and Raven had chosen to go over to the farther lands to inform them of the New Year Festival and to invite them to the palace.Considering how far the journey is it wasn't until a week later did they return and Kiyiya did this on purpose.She didn't want to cross path with Damon.Although she was hurting terribly for having to stay away from him but she couldn't bring herself to look at him and love him the same again.She didn't want a relationship where there'd be compromises,even though s
He threw his arms around her without the slightest caution and pulled her into his embrace fiercely.Their skin contact created a warm spark that ushered into their hearts floods of love.It was like the eruption of a volcano.It took seconds before Nina wrapped her hands around his neck.Even though her love for him that was sleeping in the crevice of her heart had awoken by the touch of his hands,she still remained adamant about her decision.She maintained that it was because she loves him.So therefore,she was willing to let him go...to the person he truly loves.He withdrew,holding her face in his palms and rested their foreheads together"I feel so blessed to have you" he whispered."How..how did you manage to get back?" he asked with his hands all over her,gazing at her wounds that were slowly healing.Nicolina smiled."You're looking at the Keeper of the Underworld" It took few seconds for him to understand and when he did,he couldn't help but smile at the warrior she has now
Alicia went between them and seperated them."This isn't the time to fight!" she sniffed "Raven just died,we have no idea where Mateo is and all you can do is fight??!""Fight??" Aiden chuckled "Trust me,when all this is over I will make his life miserable!""Aiden!" Alicia shot a look at him "When did you become this way?!""Since when everything was taken away from me"Kiyiya was all quiet however the moment she saw Damon running towards them she immediately opened her mouth to speak."I think I should go to the palace and..and-" she didn't think of the lie yet when he came and interrupted."Mateo has taken the vault!" he announced."No..he mustn't release it yet!" screamed Alicia as she immediately began to run towards the palace.The rest followed after her.Mateo,on seeing them,created a force field to stop them from coming closerAlicia banged on it."Don't do it,Mateo!! The Keeper will kill us all!!" she screamed.He grinned and then broke the vault into two "Nooo!!" Kiyiya sc
A thin line of blood crept down her lips.He withdrew the sword from her,making more blood to gush out.Raven fell on her knees,her sword dropping from her hand."Goodbye,Princess" Mateo grinned as he raised his sword to cut off her head."Noooo!" Klaus screamed as he ran towards them but it was impossible to get there on time.Just as the sword lowered,it stopped midway in the air.Klaus stopped in his tracks and so did the others.What was happening?They could all see Mateo struggling with his sword ,however it hanged there on the air.A large hand grabbed his throat from nowhere.It was more of happiness than surprise to see him again.He looked nothing like he did back at the dungeon.It was like he'd gone for a thorough transformation but this wasn't the time to ogle.Aiden narrowed his eyes."I've come to pay you a visit" he smirked as he looked around "I don't see any chairs or wine?"He hissed slightly "Oh..I forgot! It's not a time for you to make merry, you're gonna die soon
