❤️❤️ Unveiling River's Identity (Part 8) ❤️❤️ "Why did you tell Dark to bite his hand?" Royal asked, his lips not moving but Ice heard it. "I won't answer until you stop glaring at me as if I stole your wife from you or something related to that." Ice retorted out. Breathing out, Royal smiled at his wolf, "Can you tell me why you did that?" He asked. "Well I was told that you got beaten by that kid and decided to help you teach the kid a lesson so that next time he won't lay his fifthly hands on you." Ice replied. "You should be happy we are taking revenge on your behalf." "On my behalf you say? Did I send you or the rest to do my job for me?" Royal asked with a raised eyebrow. "Did I?" Copying Royal by raising one of his eyebrows, "You didn't but we did that so you would summon me and I will ask you this, what in the god's name are you doing here with those rags you call clothes?" "Are you now turning the table around Ice?" Royal said, trying not to smile. Ice will never change. "No Royal, you asked me a question and I gave you a reply and now I am asking you a simple question but you are beating around the bush. Why are you here and what business or message do you have with River?" Ice asked. "Didn't your informant told you why I needed to see River?" "No, Dark didn't tell me." Ice responded. "But I was hoping you would tell me." "It's a private message that is meant only for River ears." Royal told Ice. "I am glad I have the power to block my thoughts from you wolves that don't know what privacy is." "You hurt my feelings Royal." Ice said pretending to be sad, his voice showing it as he whined, "But at the end, we shall get to know the message." He added. "Only when I see River." Royal said, maintaining his stand of not telling Ice what message he has for River. "I have an idea Royal, why don't you visit the Millennium palace to see Reed and ask of his child, as the father, he will know the whereabouts of his own child." Ice suggested after thinking for a while. "Good thought Ice but no, I have this feeling that I will meet River here." Royal said. "But seriously speaking, you and the rest of my wolves should not take the law into your eyes." Royal said and when he spoke the next word, Ice spoke too, mimicking him. "You, Dark, Fire and Green are the superior of the rest of the wolves in the whole supernatural and should behave as such and stop mimicking me." Ice laughed hysterically "See you later Royal." Ice said and faded. **** King Lucas was up to his feet immediately King Leon and his daughter disappeared. He quickly walked towards his son's chamber hoping he would see him there and luckily, Tyler was in his Chamber. Entering the chamber surprising Tyler a little bit. "Father is the meeting with the Vampire King over?" Tyler asked, going to sit down on his bed. "Yes son," King Lucas answered and went to sit next to his son. "I hope I didn't spoil anything when I came in?" Tyler asked. "No you didn't, in fact our discussion was almost over when you barged in." King Lucas replied and cleared his throat. "Son, there is something I would like to speak with you." He added. "Okay father, I am listening." "It's about the Vampire King visit, he will be the next Millennium King of all." King Lucas began but got interrupted by Tyler. "The next King of Millennium? Father, King Reed is still the King, how do you expect king Leon to defeat a Millennium Wolf King the god had ordained?" Tyler asked. "You remember when you heard that emergency bell which summoned all King's and Queen's?" King Lucas responded. "Yes I remember, you came back and did not want to tell me why you were being called." Tyler said. "I will tell you if you promise me never to reveal this to anyone." King Lucas said in a serious tone. "I won't father." Leaning forward so he could whisper into his son's ear, "Reed is dead." "What? King Reed is dead?" Tyler asked shocked. "No one except the King's and Queen's knows of this, but now you know so you must keep it a secret." King Lucas said softly. "What had killed the Millennium Wolf King father?" Tyler demanded, still in shock. "He was poisoned by an unknown person and died." King Lucas replied. "But Isaac is back for the throne and lives in the Millennium Palace." He added. "I don't get you father, if Isaac is back and wants the throne, how then can king Leon sit on it?" "They will kill him and Leon shall be crowned as the Millennium King." King Lucas told his son. "It is very simple." "What about the gods, don't you think they will disagree, I thought King Reed has a child..... River." Tyler said. "Yes, but we don't know where River is but that isn't our business, by the time River gets to know of Reed's death, Leon would have become the King." King Lucas told his son. "I made a deal with him, I will become his Ally if he allows me to rule my kingdom myself when he has become the Millennium King and he agreed, that is why he was here to give me the good news." He added. "Won't that affect everyone in Wolfe Crimson?" Tyler asked worriedly. "No, there is another catch." King Lucas said smiling like an idiot as he remembered what Beauty had said. "What kind of catch, father?" Tyler asked. "Beauty, Leon's daughter, wants to make you her Mate and I have accepted." "What!!?" Tyler shouted standing up from his bed and putting some distance between him and his father. "Father, I told you this morning that I have already met my Mate, though not as beautiful as Beauty, but still yet she is my Mate. Go and tell King Leon and his daughter that I do not accept their proposal." Tyler said. "You have to son, look once you marry Beauty, you become the next Millennium King instead of her father She told me that herself, please son do not allow this opportunity to pass by us. This is what I would have grabbed if she was interested in me and not you." "But my Mate, what do I tell her? Even if I accept, I can't be with two women all my life." Tyler said having a change of mind when he heard about the Millennium throne. "Who said anything about having two women in your life son? Just cut one of them off." King Lucas said with a raised eyebrow. "What do you mean father?" Tyler asked. "I mean, cut off your Mate. Reject her and accept Beauty as your Mate." "But what if they didn't succeed? What if I don't get to be the Millennium King? What if they fail?" "They won't fail son, with what I saw in Beauty eyes, she will make everything possible for you to become the Millennium King." "Then I will reject my mate once I see her again." Tyler said. "After all, I just met her once and Beauty is far more beautiful than her." "You have my blood running through your veins son, I am happy." ***** Demon Kingdom: King Darken nodded at the two wolf Messengers that brought him the news about the death of the Fairy Queen. "Tell Isaac I will see him soon." Darken said. The two wolf Messengers bowed their head and left the throne room. Immediately they were gone, a portal opened and Lora stepped out of it, this time with her normal feet. "My Love." King Darken said with a smile as Lora sat down on his lap, kissing his lips. "I waited for you to show up as you'd promised but you didn't." He added. "Sorry my dear, I was busy." Lora responded. "Busy with what?" King Darken asked planting a kiss on her neck. "Finding out where River might be and I got a lead." Lora said, staring into her beloved eyes tenderly. That perks up King Darken interest. "You know the whereabouts of River?" "Not exactly but Mari, the witch knows River's whereabouts, go and ask her." Lora said caressing his face with her fingers. "Only she knows where River is my Love."
