Chapter 1Chapter 1- The war

CHAPTER 1-The War

In the kingdom of Decresh, the southern wing which housed the palace. Magnificent braziers hanging from one side of each of the fourteen travertine columns light up every part of the throne hall and their light wraps the hall in a warm radiance. The intricate and symmetrical design patterns on the sloped ceiling dance in the flickering light while statuettes and gargoyles look down upon the maple floor of this sublime hall.

A beryl rug splits the entire room in half from the doors to the throne while ribbon banners with adorned sigils hang from the walls. Between each banner sits a small alter full of candles, a few of them have been lit and in turn illuminate the depictions of leaders and legends below them.

Extensive, tinted glass windows are shrouded by curtains colored the same beryl as the banners. The curtains have been adorned with fancy tassels and decorated tips.

An imposing throne of molten steel sits atop a balcony overlooking the throne hall and is adjoined by three equally lavish seats for esteemed guests.

The throne is covered in baroque engravings and fixed on each of the elegant armrests is a crystal divine symbol. The modest pillows are a light beryl and these too have been adorned with gilded edges.

Those seeking the wisdom of their royal highness can do so, on the many luxurious and comfortable mahogany benches, all of which are facing the throne. Those of higher standing can instead take seat in the renovated balconies facing the throne. There is a long mahogany table where a map was placed on; beside the table are comfortable chairs where the dukes, the major general and all other people of important classes involved in the war. They were discussing their next move, when the guard announced the arrival of the major general, to give report on the recent events;

"Your Majesty, we are at disadvantage and sooner or later our camp will be invaded" he said with a straight face as he handed the files over to the king

They frowned when they heard the news. The hall was silent before a duke who looked to be around his 50s broke the silence.

"What about the ammunition given?" He asked as he stared at the major general, trying to pry answers from him.

"The ammunition does not work on witches and we have poisoned the ammunitions but what makes them powerful is the power of fell. We all know that the guardian witch obtained the power of fell, so she is using it against us."

"Hmmm.... How does the power of fell works?" Another person asked with a worried tone.

"She takes their soul out of their body and feeds her power, but her power is still growing."

"How much time does she need to carry out that process?"

"An hour."

"They want to ally with the vampires on this. She asked me to send a message to the king"

This time around the king spoke.

"It's in this recorder" the general answered showing it, as the king signaled the guard to get it.

He played the recorder as he looked at it when it started and it happened to be the witch queen's voice;

"King Ian, how have you been lately" she said with a sarcastic laugh following that.

"Anyway, I will do you a favor and end the war, just hand over the demon's orb. It will benefit us both you know but I will give you time to think. Goodbye" she ended with a maniacal laughter.

Immediately the voice ended the temperature in the room decreased to a rate that the guards and some people in the hall found it difficult to breathe.

The king spoke as he retracted the pressure

"Seems like we would have to discuss with the wolf king about this"

The other officials also butt in their opinions;

"Your Majesty, we have wings which aids us in our agility and flight, wolves have great agility and good defense especially in forest like terrains which makes up for our weaknesses."

"Your Majesty, he should help us besides your daughter is married to the second prince of the wolf kingdom."

"We can strengthen our alliance through this."

The king said nothing but listened to them as they spoke and argued among themselves.

"Your Majesty, we need to make sure the witches do not ally with the vampires"

"Milord, let the wolves deal with the vampires"

"But that will destroy the trade between them."

"That's not our business; our business is to win the war."

"Your Majesty, how about we let your daughter talk to the hidden prince of Azeroth."

"You mean Prince Liam Carter of the vampire kingdom"

"Which other hidden prince of Azeroth are we talking about?"

"Anyway we can use this to disrupt the harmony between the werewolves and the vampires"

"King Zira is a smart king, he might use some trick and turn it to his own good"

"Our king, King Ian is not foolish either" a duke refuted

"I never said our king was foolish" the former spoke

The other officials butted in only to increase the rate of the argument, till the king spoke in a cold and terrifying tone

"Enough, I will speak to king Zira of Gira and we will plan our next move. For now the meeting has been adjourned"

The king walked out of the hall and sent a guard to call his aide

At night, in the kingdom of Gira, the wolf kingdom. A black shadow can be seen swiftly and easily by passing the night guards, until he arrived at the northern wing where princess Evelyn, wife of the crown prince of the kingdom of Gira and daughter to the great King Ian. The black shadow was none other than King Ian personal aide. He arrived at the third floor, when Evelyn noticed someone in the house.

"Whose there?"

"Hmmm... who do we have here?" she asked as she approached the man, while Luna her daughter used that minutes of distraction to come and eaves drop.

She led the man to her study. She poured tea in a cup while the man sat down.

"You can remove the cloak now"

The man slowly pulled the cloak while Luna who was eaves dropping peeped to see who it was, she remembered the man's face but where? She tried to recall until her mom spoke.

Aurora Waters was overwhelmed with despair when she faced the truth about her family. She had been born into a family of villains. Even worse, her family had an unhealthy obsession with faking their identities. They took “Fake it till you make it” so seriously that it usually ended with them getting killed! Her oldest brother pretended to be a CEO just to mess with the female lead, but that backfired when the male lead showed up and threw him out. Her second brother? He was an obsessive lover who pretended to be a wealthy second-generation heir—until the real heir ended his life. Her third sister? She faked being an heiress to manipulate the second male lead but ended up being killed by him. Her fourth sister? She faked an illness to attract the third male lead’s attention, only to die from a real one. Her mother? She put on a facade of being a kind and loving mom but ultimately met her end at the hands of the male lead. Her father? He pretended to be a powerful tycoon but lost his job and was drowned by the second male lead. And Aurora? She planned to impersonate the daughter of the richest man alive, but if things went the way they always did in her family, she’d probably meet her end by accidentally falling down the stairs. However, there was one glimmer of hope in this nightmare: she had a 100% rebate system that rewarded her for spending money on her family! [Beep! You bought an eraser worth 1 dollar for your eldest brother! 2 dollars have been credited to your bank account!] [Beep! You bought a candy worth 1 dollar for your second brother! 2 dollars have been credited to your bank account!] Aurora’s eyes sparkled as an idea took shape. She began spending on her family like crazy to rake in cash. [Beep! You gave a bun worth 20 dollars to your childhood crush! 100 dollars has been credited to your bank account!] Aurora: …!

Royal Secret: I'm a Princess!

After living as a famous Korean vlogger-slash-mukbanger, Neoma died a (shameful) death and regressed to her tragic first life--- the life where she has to live as a hidden princess with a tyrannical father and a yandere twin brother. She died at the hands of her psycho brother in her first life. But luckily, she charmed her "big brother" this time. Her father remains a sc*mbag, though. But a blessing in disguise happened when her twin brother got "sick." Because of that, she has to pretend as the "Crown Prince," forcing her father to treat her well. She thought she was finally on the road to becoming a lady of leisure. But, despite her laziness, she still ends up completing royal duties that put her closer to the throne than her sick twin brother. The next thing she knew, they already prophesied her to be the first empress of their very patriarchal empire. Now Neoma finds herself in the middle of the succession war she never wanted to be involved in! *** [EXCERPT 1] “Neoma de Moonasterio, the first princess of Moonasterion Empire. From now on, you’ll live as Prince Nero’s proxy.” [The hell is this psycho saying?] Neoma, despite her confusion, still smiled at her father--- the emperor. “Father, what do you mean by that?” “From now on, assassins sent by my enemies would target Nero,” the emperor explained. “Until he’s strong enough to protect himself, you’ll pose as your twin brother.” Her smile froze, but she still acted innocent. “But Father. If I take my brother’s position, then wouldn’t the assassins mistake me for him and…” She stopped talking when she realized that was exactly what the emperor wanted her to do. [This sc*mbag wants me to be bait?!] “You’re no longer a princess, Neoma de Moonasterio. From now on, you’ll live as Prince Nero de Moonasterio,” Emperor Nikolai said coldly while looking down at her with glowing red eyes. “Try to survive until your twin brother comes back to take his rightful place, understood?” Neoma was too shocked to react. [Are you f*cking kidding me, you sc*mbag?!] *** [ORIGINAL BOOK COVER. Artwork by sola_cola.] *** [EXCERPT 2] “I’m so sick of your tyrannical a*s,” Neoma yelled at her father aka the emperor. “I won’t forgive you for hurting Lewis and Tteokbokki!” “What will you do about it then?” Nikolai asked with a smirk. “Kill me?” “Yes! I’ll f*cking kill you, sc*mbag!” “Language,” he warned her, upset that his five-year-old daughter curses like a sailor. “Using vulgar words is unbecoming of the future Crown Prince.” “I’m a princess!” Upon yelling those words, the royal princess’s eye color changed from ash-gray to red. [This is getting serious.] “Stop it, Nero,” Nikolai told her sternly. “If you keep that up, the royal knights will come and–” “I’m not Nero!” Neoma screeched angrily. Then she jumped in the air with her left fist, ready to punch him. “In the name of the moon, I’ll punish you!” [What…?] And Princess Neoma, pretending as the Crown Prince for her sick twin brother, punched Emperor Nikolai, her father, in the face.

Will Zara fight the dangers that await or embrace her true destiny? **EXCERPT** "I... didn't want to be late for work. You seemed busy, so I thought I'd get a head start." Snow raised an eyebrow. "Really? Or is it because last night affected you so much that you couldn't stand being around me?" "Don't flatter yourself, Snow. You didn't affect me at all." He smirked, stepping closer. "Is that so?" His fingers brushed my chin, tilting my face up. My pulse quickened. "We're at work," I snapped, swatting his hand away. "This isn't professional." "You're my wife," he murmured. "You're supposed to obey me at all times." I bit back a retort, a hint of rebellion flaring within. Slowly, I stepped closer, letting my fingers graze his chest. His smirk wavered for a second when his wolf reacted and Snow bit his lips. "Careful, Boss," I purred seductively. "Don't hurt those lips. I'm sure plenty of girls would love to kiss them." Snow leaned down, his lips brushing my ear. "And you? Are you dying for a taste?" Caught off guard, I hesitated, then regained my composure as I looked him in the eyes. "Unlike other girls, I have strong resistance against—" I didn't get a chance to finish when Snow's lips crashed onto mine with a fierce kiss that left me breathless. *************** MATURE CONTENT Participating in the Viral Book Call Contest.
