Sang
Next morning.
Shadow empire.
Emperor's chamber.
Maids were seen tripping in and out, the king was in their midst as they prepared him for the court section, he was smartly dressed in his Royal gown giving him killer look.
The door was pushed opened, beta Tomas entered, he bow in greetings to the alpha whose back was turn against him.
"Leave!" The alpha husky voice spoke in a calm but commanding tone, the maids left.
"The elders are waiting for you my Lord!" Beta Tomas said making the emperor to turn with a frown.
"For what?" The emperor asked.
"I have no ideal my lord, they demand your presence." Beta Tomas said bowing slightly.
"Fine, how about her?" He asked, making Tomas to frown puzzle.
"Who my Lord?" Beta Tomas asked.
"The rogue." The emperor said.
"She us In the dungeon awaiting your command." Beta Tomas said, the alpha king nodded walking ahead.
****
Alpha Dylan arrive in the courtroom with beta Tomas behind, everyone present in the hall bow slightly in greetings to the emperor as he walk in.
The hall was a massive building, decorated with Royal blue, consist of seat and table for the elders with mugs.
In the midst of the large room stood a massive golden throne, meant for the king alone, the king majestically walk to his throne and gently sat down.
"Rise!" He said, the elders rise and sat on their seat.
"Your majesty." The oldest elder in the courtroom stood up and move forward slightly bowing.
"We heard that the border was under attack, we seek explanation my lord, the people are restless." He spoke with a shaken voice due to age.
The emperor remain unmoved and expressionless as he listen to him
"My lord." Another elder stood up and came forward slightly bowing.
"I heard she is an hybrid." He said dropping the bomb, the hall was filled with murmurings of elders discussing privately among themselves.
"My lord." Another stood up and move forward slightly bowing.
"Let's use it to our advantage, hybrids are known for how powerful they are, they possess the strange and rarest elemental powers my lord." The same elder said making the emperor to frown.
"My lord, I strongly disagree." The shaman spoke, all eyes turn to face him surprised.
(Shaman is an elderly man that gives advice and make decisions on behalf of the emperor, he is also feared but not as must as the alpha)
"So what if she is an hybrid, she is a rogue don't forget,a spy who could be aiding our enemy pack, we can't trust a stranger no matter his powerful he or she is." The shaman said reasoning.
Beta Tomas stare at the alpha who have been quiet since the discussion started.
"My lord, we need your decision on this matter!" Another elder roar as the rest spoke in union.
"We need your decisions on this matter, your majesty!!" They chorus bowing.
Emperor Dylan remain silent, the hall was like a graveyard each waiting for their King's comments, but none came surprising them, they couldn't help wondering if the emperor was sleeping!!
Beta Tomas turn equally surprised as well, he met the piercing blue eyes of the king piercing deep into his very soul, he have to quickly look down.
"My lord!" The oldest elder spoke again, he equally have been silent but the alpha quietness is killing them.
Alpha Dylan adjusted in his seat as if uncomfortable, he didn't know what to do, some where against her exist, and few where supporting, he was literally speechless.
"A..alpha!" Beta Tomas stutter, he lost the confidence to speak boldly, the alpha's quietness was intimating and demanding.
Alpha Dylan was completely lost of words, he once though that he was destined to be Mateless, for so many years he waited and waited, the elders went not giving him breathing space, now he found her they want him to execute her like seriously!!.
What can he do, he was destined to be Mateless, that's why the moon goddess pair him with a rogue to be his Luna, a slap to his pride, an insult to his face, what have he done to deserve such?!.
He look at the concern elders, if only they new why he was silent, she was still his mate after all, killing her is the hardest thing he have to do and he was unwilling to do it.
He clear his throat drawing their attention, they sigh happily.
"Discussed among yourselves and I will give my finally answer." He stood up, the elders look puzzled but neither the less they bow as he approach them, he left.
"What was that!?" Some elders whisper as they made their way out.
"Am literally shock." Another said walking toward the exit.
****
The royal library pavilion.
Beta Tomas enter the library, he saw the alpha looking out through the window the breeze carried his hair, as it dance with the wind.
Beta Tomas stopped making the alpha to turn facing him.
"You must be displeased too." Alpha said making him go on his kneels immediately.
"I wouldn't dare." He said.
"Rise." Alpha said, beta Tomas stood up with a bow.
"The border feels strange to me, anything abnormal?" The alpha asked.
"None my Lord." Beta Tomas said, the alpha nodded.
"I have a report to make my lord." Beta Tomas said.
"Go on."
"Your parents sent message that they are coming soon from the mortals realm." Beta Tomas stated making alpha to turn surprised.
"Why so soon?" Alpha mumble to himself .
"Sure, anything else?" Alpha asked.
"That's all my lord." Beta Tomas said.
"Tomas." Alpha called, beta Tomas stated at him surprised.
"Yes my lord." Beta Tomas said bowing slightly.
"Pass my decree, I hereby order her release from the dungeon and by noon assembly all the elders for my final decision." Alpha said with a seal of finality making Tomas to bow.
"Yes my lord." He said bowing and immediately disappear.

before bonnie could hold it, her tray came crushing down on the floor, bonnie gasp startled, all eyes on her....
What's going on?
Who is she?
The guts of her!
oh my, it pour on the Prince.
where the hell is this bloody and stupid maid from!!
Bonnie kept batting her lashes too shock to move, who was she seeing .
“Her storm!”
“No way, he can't be a prince, not here, not in Emily's enemy kingdom”
Before bonnie could move feng came to her rescue, making bonnie bow as she bow too shaking, bonnie was the least scared.
"M..my l...lord, have mercy." Feng begged with her palm visibly shaking, she was afraid for her friend.
Bonnie eyes glue to storm's own, their eyes interlock as if communicating in a strange way.
"M...my lord!" Feng called with her her bow, she pitch bonnie making her jerk back to reality, she gasp at the mess she created, as everything sink into her brain, she literally bow paralyzed and shock at everything happening, she couldn't process a thing.
"Leave!" He order making both ladies to stare shock, feng quickly stood up and drag the unwilling bonnie out, she couldn't stop staring back at storm who couldn't remove his eyes from her too.
Jezebel kept staring silently from her son to the maid puzzles, the way she stare at her son shows that they knew each other.
“ who could she be?!” she wondered staring at her disappearing shadow.
Storm stare at his mother, their eyes interlock.
"Can we start." He said, his mother shrug, the dancers started displaying again, people minds were still rotating round the previous scene, her audacity.
***
Bonnie kept moving, her mind in deep though, she have no ideal she have left her friend who went to give orders to the order maids to clean up the hall.
Bonnie was still walking when she got a glow of a familiar figure walking toward her with another lady dressed like a royal, bonnie quickly hide herself behind a marble.
The figures became clearer, she could now see properly who they were.
Bonnie saw Zuri and a Lady dressed like a princess, her looks and grin were dark.
We could heat clearly what they were saying.
Zuri; ‘Reva, can't you help me, am desperately in need of your help.’
Reva; ‘I though I told you already, you both are already engaged, his can I help you both.’
Zuri; ‘ make it happen, it have been years now since we got engaged, I want us to marry he is delaying it, can't you see it.’
Reva; ‘ Zuri, you are my best friend, he is my brother, if he is not ready to marry you now, then don't force him, neither the less, both if you we marry either ways.’
Zuri;‘ you aren't helping matters’
Reva sigh and laugh tickling Zuri who put on a stern expression.
Reva;‘ don't worry, both id you will marry.’
Bonnie came out of her bidding ass he stare at their retreating figure, they both entered the hall together.
A hand tap bonnie making her flinch.
"Sang sang, I was looking for you." Feng said holding Bonnie's hand.
Bonnie look started for a minute before she pinch her making her gasp.
"Dose it hurt?!" Bonnie teased and stick out her tongue in mockery.
"How dare you!" Feng roar pursuing bonnie who kept running round the hall way, God help her she don't fall into trouble......
