"Have it gotten to the point where you no longer take me serious again, am the f**king alpha, not you, whatever I say stands."

After venting out at me, he turned to the max (the guard) who was already trembling on the floor under his furious gaze.

"Leave now before I separate your neck from your body".

After speaking, the royal guard left hurriedly, thanking the moon goddess for saving him from the angry wolf king, before he remembered something, then he turned back and kept on the floor. She understood him, he was the princess personal guard so the princess must have threatened him not to come back without the king accepting to see her, but what she couldn't understand is why the alpha was this angry, his words just now shocked both her and the elders, what came over him, her thoughts lingered on what transpired between them last night last night and she frowned, she decided not to think about it before she succumbs to the sadness that is about covering her, she thought of it and said,

°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°

" Your majesty, can we leave now"

                "NO"

Came his resounding, but short reply. No, 'did he just say no to her in the presence of the elders, she was utterly speechless, she eyed him, giving him a signal, 'are we doing this now....' She don't know what to do anymore, As she just watched him.

"Emm...., your majesty, we have to leave now, we still haven't done our discussion, of course that will be if you don't mind."

She glared at him telling him to follow her, but the king looked past her to the guard who was trembling non stop on the floor,he frowned, thinking how a weakling got to be his sister personal guard, he Will have to change him.

"Guild the princess in , let's hear what she have to say ."

"Yes your majesty"

The guard hurriedly left before the king decides to change his mind. Not long after he left to inform the princess of the King's order, the princess walked in, she is an epitome of beauty, she was like a character found in fairytale, wherever she goes, she managed to attract attention of everybody there. Some of the elders were gawking at her with an unnatural way in a rather trance state, and she seem to be uncomfortable with their stares.

On noticing her discomfort, the king gowled, angry at them for looking at her that way.

"Get your old perverted eyes off my sister before I plug them out myself".

He warned angrily. On getting to the throne, Princess Brianna bowed to the king, who in turn was looking at her with fondness and love in his eyes, he different from the person who spoke earlier, it was as if it wasn't him, that's not surprising because the whole kingdom knows  how the king cherishes and love  his sister, she is his only surviving family afterall, he is always over protective of her, he doesn't take it likely with anybody that makes her unhappy.

" What is the matter with you Jewel"

Even the tone he uses to addresses her is so affectionate and full of fondness,

"I want to go outside the palace, I have been locked in here for too long, I want to go outside" 

Princess Brianna said and started sobbing immediately, and that's one thing the king can't bear, seeing her cry, its like his worst nightmares, she knew that why the princess decided to use this tactics and as expected he agreed, ruluctantly though.

"Alright you can go, but if the incident that happened last time repeat itself again....., you won't be going out again until you turn eighteen."

"Yes your majesty, naturally I know what to do"

She replied happily and walked out of the throne room.

"Don't make a fuss about the guards following you or you can forget about going out."

The king told her, as she was about to step of the throne room. She poured and nodded her head.

"Alright, I promise."

She replied happily and ran out before the king qould call  her again and give her another condition. I laghed at her naughtiness and then I saw a flash of light and the surrounding changed, I was in the middle of a beautiful  rose garden, it was a sight to behold and then again the surrounding changed, she was now near the dark forest at the back of the palace, I didn't panick because this is not the first time this is happening. I turned around searching for anything or a clue as you why I was brought here, I didn't see anything so I began thinking if this is a divination, i was about closing my eyes to chant some incantation to return to the current time I was in the palace, it was then I saw something that sent chills over my body, I saw a munezine monster smiling happily at someone, a rare smile indeed, they never smile at anybody, this is my first time seeing  a monster smile, I turned to see who he is smiling happily at and I saw the princess waving and smiling widely till her eyes couldnt be seen at him, I was shocked to the core and my expression turned grave, what is happening, what is the princess doing with a munezine monster, i wanted to go grab her but the environment suddenly changed and I was in front of the throne again.

"High priestess, High Priestess,high priestess,".

The voice of the elders calling my name repeatedly brought me out of my trance state. I looked at them who were looking at me with a worried expression on their faces, I turned to look at the king who just stared back at me.

" are you okay, Catori"

Mato (the alpha beta) asked with concern.

"She is seeing them".

He looked back at me confused by my choice of words.

"Who is seeing whom"

"The princess"

"Who is she seeing"

This time it was the king that asked at the mention of the princess.

" The princess is seeing a munezime monster"

"What"

"What"

Both the king and the elders shouted at the same time with voices that is laced with shock and panic.

"What do you mean"

Beta Mato asked.

"Just now, I wanted an illusional vision, I saw the princess with a munezine monster, she was smiling at him happily, they seem like they are in love".

"That's impossible, the princess can't possibly have contact with them"

Before I could say anything, Elder Wiyot agitated voice sounded, he was one of the elders who were head over heels in love with the princess and hoping to marry her.
