Chapter 3

Lora smiled at his statement. "Don't worry my love, I am assuring you that the throne is yours." "You have never let me down before Lora and I know you won't." King Darken said. Lora nodded her head in pride. Searching for River will be hard, but she will not fail her Mate. ***** "Did you see the way his one eye flashes red?" Queen Floral said to Queen Latifah once they were out of the secret chamber. "I saw it." Queen Latifah said. "Are you going to try and find River as he orders?" She asked. "No, between you and I, River is the rightful owner of the throne. He is King Reid's only child and should be the one who ascends the throne every male is dragging. They haven't even laid the late King to rest and they are dragging who will sit on the throne." Queen Floral said and her Fairy wings sprouted out of her back once they were outside the palace. "I will think of a lie to tell him whenever he asks. I won't put in all my time and energy to search for someone who he plans to kill." With that she flew away, flying towards her kingdom. Queen Latifah heaved out a sad sigh and made a portal open which took her to her Palace. **** "I asked you a question Jeffrey, what do you know about my brother's child, River?" Issac repeated his question going to sit on an empty chair. "I-i don't know anything about the late King child, sire." Jeffrey answered. "Really?" "Yes sire." "Okay, it seems Reid was very smart to hide his child and the gender from prying eyes, but I will definitely find River." Issac said. "Since you don't know anything about my nephew, at least you do know how the supernatural kingdom runs, I mean their daily activities. I have been away for a long time, so try to refresh my memory." Issac said and placed his two legs on the table, relaxing his back, closing his one good eye. "I am listening Jeffrey, or should I force you to speak?" **** Vampire Kingdom: King Leon arrived at his palace, ignoring the greetings sent his way by his guards and servants as he headed for his chamber. Once he was in, he let out the scream he has been holding ever since he left Reid's secret chamber. "Father, what is going on?" A smooth female voice asked him. Facing his beautiful daughter. "Issac is back beauty." King Leon responded. "And he is back for the throne." Beauty was as beautiful as her name present. She has long dark hair that was on her waist level and silver shining eyes filled with so much evil. She had sacrificed her mother to a god she serves, a good who empowered her with powers. "How did he get to know about King Reid's death?" Beauty asked. "I don't know but all I know is that he won't be sitting on that throne easily." King Leon said darkly. "It belongs to me and I will sit on it and not Issac." "Issac shouldn't be your worry father, you should be more concerned about Reid's child (River) than Issac." Beauty said. "I know River is out there, patiently waiting to strike when we least expected." "Issac is more of a threat than River." King Leon said. "River is just but a child unlike Issac who is the dead King brother. His coming back would only mean he has gotten powers but like I told him, there are powers out there he knows nothing of. I need to speak to Cretin immediately, can you do that for me?" "Of course father." Beauty answered and walked over to meet her father, she raised her right hand towards his face, touched his forehead and they disappeared. ______ Reappearing in an unknown dark Cave. Beauty led the way with her father who was trailing behind her. They both were the creatures of the night so they could see perfectly well in the dark. They walked deeper into the Cave until they came to the end of the Cave. A large circle was seen at the middle of the Cave and water was in it, it was so dark as night itself. Standing at the edge of the water, beauty started saying some incantations and her silver eyes glowed and she used her feet to touch the water. The water started rumbling and beauty went back to stand near her father, their eyes never leaving the circle of water. Soon a head of a beast was seen coming out of the water. It has four horns and two heads. Two horns on each of the heads. He was hideous. Half of him remains in the water. "Who summoned me?" He demanded he have no eyes or nose. When he spoke his tongue came out of his mouth. "It is I, your humble servant Cretin. My father seeks for you." Beauty answered. She had sacrificed her mother to him in exchange for powers. Her father who knows, always tells those that ask after his wife. "She woke up one morning and left my palace, I don't know her whereabouts but I have my best Vampire trackers tracking her and are yet to report back to me." Just like his evil daughter, he could do anything.
