The Vampire’s Omega

64

When he reached the council hall, the council elders were waiting for his arrival.

Carson walked towards him, bowing down slowly, he smiled at the king, his smile was genuine, filled with assurance, he understood the phase the king was passing through.

“What is it, why that smile.”

Blade asked, staring at his second in command. He wasn’t fond of receiving smiles unless the one that his mate gave him all the time, gawd, how he missed her smile.

Quickly he waved his head, he was thinking about her again.

“Just a welcoming gesture my lord, may I present you to the council.”

Carson said, leading the king to his position, while the elders of the council stood up and bowed down to him.

“I am already in the council. Seems you don’t know how we work again, my lack of presence must have affect your memory.”

Blade said, glaring at him for a while, every fucking thing pissed him off, he wasn’t ready to play games with anyone.

“All hail king Blade, we have heard of your sudden dismissal in the things that concerns the pack and your company, you gave your brother the power to lead the whole packs and we are quite worried about that. Perhaps is there a problem.”

One of the council men said, still bowing down, obviously scared of staring at the king.

Among the members of the council who were present in the council meeting was Aloric, the great grand elder, father of Ashrak, the King’s whore. Aloric bowed his head lowly, the heavy shame that was inmated upon his daughter still gripped him and his taste for revenge was increasing day by day.

“What so ever that concerns my company, my personal business and the outside world should not be your concern. You should be focused more on what happens in the within the pack world and every other vampire’s pack. As you all may know, I gave my brother Kurt the permission to lead the entire pack for some days before I regain my strength.”

Blade said, there was no way he would inform them about his mate been bedridden for days.

“Do you mean you are sick?”

One of the elders asked.

“Yes I am and I am apologizing for not informing the council about it.”

Blade said, Slowly his eyes diverted towards the old council member Aloric, he gazed at the man for a while, there and then he wondered if perhaps this man was the anonymous man who has tried killing his mate.

A father can never stay still when he was totally disgrace by punishing his daughter in front of all the members of the pack be still and do nothing.

Aloric saw the king staring at him intensely, he bow down low, the king had a way of intimidating a person in a way more than one expected.

“What about your mate. A lot have not been heard about her, no one have seen her within this past six days. We the council are quite worried about your mate.”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Blade heard a vampire said, slowly his eyes diverted towards the vampire who had spoken, it was Markus, the leader of the Bloody Night pack, he had given Markus the power to rule over the Pack when the werewolves once had a war with the vampires and Markus father caught killed by the werewolves, that was the same day he lost his own father too, the previous king and lord of the whole vampire’s realm.

“Should I be worried about your concern for my mate Lord Marcus. Because I feel quite worried right now.”

Blade said, an evil glint appearing in his eyes as he stared at the little vampire.

“No No, just feeling concerned for your mate, after all she will be the new Lu…..”

With a speed, as fast as lightening, Blade rammed his fist towards the vampire, sending Markus flying on the wall.

Everyone breathed out heavily with fear, they knew not to provoke the king, in short, not all vampire Lords loves attending council meeting, there was always bloodshed at the end, so everyone minded the way they talk to the king, the king was no a vampire of patience.

“Now Lord Markus or what do ever you call your self, do not use a sultry tongue to talk about my mate again. I hate men who does that and do you know what I do to men who does that, I kill them or skin them alive, then feed their bodies to the dogs and then hang your head on a stake in a barren land where the rogues stay. Your spirit will die of torment and you will suffer both in the spirit world.”

Blade hissed, quickly getting over the vampire who held his breath.

Markus staggered back immediately the king left his presence totally. He wasn’t going to speak of the king’s mate anymore.

“I heard rumors, rumors that your mate is sick, is that perhaps true, that your mate is sick and lays in her bed totally bed ridden.”

Blade heard a voice said, slowly he turned towards who so ever dared questioned him in a time like this.

The whole council remained still, you could hear the sound of a pin if paradventure a pin fell on the ground.

It was Aloric, it was Aloric who had asked the question.

Blade stared at him, his face was expressionless but what surprised him was that, the old grand elder stood there, unfazed, not minding what will come next.

But there was a rule which could protect the grand elder from his rage, which was, he had no right to harm or torture the grand elder over something as sinple as asking a question, the only reason an elder could be punished was if he commits treason or try harming who so ever that governs him which is the Luna and the vampire king with his family. Also, slight punishment such as banishent or removal of title will be given to him if it involves the pack members.

“Where did you hear such rumors from?”

Blade asked him, walking towards the old elder.

“Was that a rumor, I never knew, I thought it was true. A smoke does not come from an empty fire you know king Blade.”

Aloric said, Staring at the king eyeball to eyeball.

“Bring facts Aloric, grand elder of the entire pack, do not bring rumors.”

Blade said, staring at king.

“Then if you considered my words to be rumors, why don’t to show us your mate, let us see for our self if the soon to be Luna is strong enough.”

Aloric said, smiling mischievously at the king, a dark glint was pointed on his chin, only the king was able to see it. Blade stared at him for a while, a dark smile appearing on his face, he had gotten answers he was looking for, he just needed to finalize if I was true.

“Why should I provide my mate to you?”

Blade said, not removing his gaze from Aloric who looked unfaded by his murdering stares.

“To know if our soon to be Luna and queen is healthy, after all she will be the new leader of the great vampires pack, we need to know how strong she will be for the task.”

Aloric said, turning to stare at the pack council members who looked at him, they nodded their head, they were In support of the grand elder.

Blade waved his head, he was expecting this.

“Ok fine then, I will provide my mate to you in five hours but if she is bedridden as you said she is, then a new Luna would be chosen, but if she I fine, you and the entire pack owe me a favor which will only be asked at my own time.”

Blade said, staring at the grand elder, quickly, Blade saw an emotion strike through the grand elder’s eyes, the emotion came and left quickly.

“Ok then, it is finalized, in five hours we will see your mate.”

Aloric said, Blade walled back to hus throne, staring down on the floor, he whispered,

“Bella where are you, wake up, wake up!”
