Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

The sun rose from the clear sky and it's warmth did a little to contact with the chill of the winter. It made the whole scenario brighter and he hated it.He hated anything bright, pastel and happy.

It was time. His ears pick up the movements around the castle of various events getting ready for the day. His eyes never left the sun yet he was aware of everything happening around him.

Like it true dominant Alpha Lycan was supposed to.

He sighed harshly and whispered a prayer to the goddess. The days were hard to pass by.

A knock door on his door and he grunted in reply. They were all used to his replies of full of annoyance and irritation. No one expected is Xavier Rivera to be polite and warm like his brother.

"Your highness," Augustine greeted as soon as he came in.

"Have you come to dress me today?" Xavier muttered under his breath. "I have no problems with it but do not get jealous."

Augustine laughed politely. "The vampire king has requested an audience with you. Apparently it has something to do with his brother who lost his mate years ago and he might be up to something to do with the kidnappings of the young females."

Xavier rose a brow at that. "Oh?" He breathed. "And why is he coming to us for it? If he knows something ask him to write it to us, I do not have time to conduct meetings with someone who has family problems."

"But, the kidnappings have stopped abruptly. The court thinks that is just the calm before the storm." Augustine said, "Conducting a meeting with my end of helping us in unveiling many secrets that have been buried from us by the vampires and that could also help for strengthening the bonds between." He suggested.

"Augustine," Xavier drawled out, "Do you want me to attend this meeting?"

"Yes, your Highness." He answer truthfully and with a quick sniff from his nose, he could tell that he was not lying.

He did a quick calculation. King Cassius was coming to his kingdom of shape shifting, there were going to be jabs and statements of insults which could cause him to take offense given that his father, the ever so sensitive vampire king, would take offence to every small things done against him.

"Prepare the kingdom and the people. Make sure that no one steps out of the line." He commanded and his beats made its presence known, daring anyone to go against him.

"Yes, I will, your highness." Augustine bowed. "Not to forget to mention, I am quite blessed, so jealousy won't be an emotion I feel."

Xavier laughed at that. A carefree laughter like the times before.

********

He stood in the room audience between him and the vampire thing would be conducted. It was a long table with 4 chairs present, two for the kings and 2 for their second and commands.

The king had entered the castle and Xavier ears followed every movement taken by him.

The doors opened and a young aged perhaps just like him, king entered. "Your highness, King Rivera."

Xavier nodded. The vampire King had a small smile on his face but Xavier did not. Meeting someone was what he hated and this was exactly what he was doing at the moment.

"King Cassius," he greeted and extended an arm, "Please, have a seat."

The drinks were served, blood for the vamps and Alcohol for the wolves.

"What is it that you wanted to talk about?" Xavier went straight to the matter at hand.

Cassius smiled. "I have heard a lot about you. One of those things that would really appreciated by me was you not beating around the bush." He praised, "I suppose you know my brother, Sir Nathaniel

Ambrogio."

"I have heard of it." Xavier had not know him but he had surely heard of him. "I am aware of the fact that he lost his mate three years ago."

Cassius nodded. "Yes, sir, he did. It drove him crazy and did not help the fact that his made was a witch."

That rose his curiousity. "Vampire who have witches as their mates is not something that is uncommon then why that fact not help?"

"Because both of them a power hungry and did not have the fact that one would worship demon and devils." Cassius ansered him with a grim expression. "Which is why I have the throne, a bastard child."

"And what is he up now?" Xavier's gingers tranced the hemm of the glass which held his alcohol. He didn't drink it, drinking it only letter to him dreaming of her which only made him almost claim her forcefully.

Which was going to be considered legal in his world and also, he was the king. No one would ever go against him.

"Not good." Cassius sipped his drink. "She had been quite for the past two years which only made us more suspicious but now apparently he is an human town and with a group on a hike."

His eyes snapped up and Augustine stood up. "You high—'

"What town?" Xavier growled.

Cassius frowned at the sudden change in the behaviour of everyone in the room. "Sir—"

"What town!" Xavier roared and slammed his fist on the table making it break in half with strength used. "What human town and on a hike is he on?!"

Cassius's eyes widened for a brief second. "Sylvester. Why?" He answered. "He has been in that town for a while on."

"Months in time, I suppose?" Xavier growled and barely controlled his beast from lashing out. His breathed in and out to calm himself.

Cassius nodded. "Yes sir. But why?"

Xavier didn't answer. "And what, he is the one behind all of those kidnappings, of the newly mated females?"

"Yes, sir, you have connected all the dots correctly. But would you tell me what is it all about?" Confusion wafted off of him and Xavier smirked.

"I guess my mate is coming home."
