Rose's Pov.
Humans have always been the weakest of the three races or species, the only thing we had was our large number, but what can that do against the speed of the vampires or the sheer strength of the werewolves. All our lives, we have been in constant fear of the other races, which mostly see us as food. My mother had only me before she passed away, and because of the intense love he had for her, he refused to marry another woman. This decision of his was his undoing, because as the first born prince, he ought to have an heir that will continue his line. No matter how much I pressured him, he refused to take in another wife. The king has gotten very old and extremely ill and his brothers are trying to fight him for the throne because of this one weakness he has.
"How are you feeling?" My dad asked inside a carriage taking us back home from Hargrove.
