Chapter 3 GET OUT OF MY FOREST!!

Chapter 2

Frederick Claw ~

"Sofia, Morgana, get her inside." I said stroking Alessia's white hair. "Save her! Save my sister!" I added splitting two more arrows aimed at Alessia in half.

"My Lord, we shall do all that we can." "I promise you." said Morgana taking Alessia from my blood stained hands and into hers mumbling some words as she made her way back into the coven.

The coven gates went solid shut behind her. I looked all around and found all the troops to be in position. The archers were in formation and the swordsmen were all ready to protect our coven and the queen.

Funny enough, the lycan queen was being protected by my vampire warriors. Odd, isn't it?

The lycans charged to the coven but with a single howl which I presumed to be some sort of signal, they all stopped in their tracks, still in their lycan appearances.

"Let's get straight to the point, your majesty! You know what we came here for so bring her and the unborn child out, hand them over to us and we would be on our jolly way." said the first who appeared to be the chief spokesman of the trio.

"I have told you and whoever that you're working for and I'll tell you again. I am the ruler of these woods, if you didn't get an invite from me, get the fuck outta my lands. I advise you leave now while you still can." I said giving the trio a good prospect of my blood-thirsty fangs.

"That is unacceptable. You are the son of Alaric, the deceased vampire lord and so matters of the lycans have no business with you. Give us Alessia and I give you my word, we all shall run away just as we came without anyone getting hurt or having to heal." said the third using his hands to display the entire army of lycans surrounding him.

"Failure to comply by getting out of my way and bringing her forth would result to... Well, I don't need to give you in detail what happens." added the third as his arm transformed and after a few seconds turned human again.

"I'll give you ten seconds to get your men turn around and head out of this forest and off the backs of the royal family or else, same applies to your lycans." I said exhibiting a clear image of my fangs.

"So sad that we couldn't meet to an understanding." said the first before he changed to his lycan form supported by the next two and in the blink of an eye, all the lycans were in unison.

"Kill them all and bring Alessia to me!!!" said the first and the fight began.

"Archers, take your aim!" I said as the charging lycans made way for us. "Hold!! Hold!! Hold! FIRE!!!"

The archers released their first batch of flaming silver arrows and in seconds, lycans who had contact with it fell to their deaths. They were getting closer and closer. It seemed like the shower of silver arrows didn't make much of a difference in the population of Lycans who were living.

"Chhaarrge!!!" I roared.

Immediately, the entire coven of vampyres charged towards the lycans. My initial intentions were to send them out of the forest but now, sending them to the great beyond sounds more interesting.

The warlocks started their thing; bringing out enchanted orbs and throwing them into the various areas where lycans were prominent. With the proclamation of certain magical words, they exploded releasing a thick cloud of silver.

Many of which died as the silver dust made its way up their noses and into their body. The swordsmen weren't left out of the fight as they slashed and ran through every being with an extremely hairy physique all around the premises of the coven and then into the inner forests.

The archers continued launching their silver arrows into the air. Everyone was doing the needful to make sure we win this fight and get them off Alessia's back. I as their king acted as the overall leader in the bloody exchange of scars and deaths.

"Take your injured and go. I can still let you walk out of here with your lives and I intend to, if you just surrender and live!" I said to the hearing of their spokesman.

Not that I was expecting a change of heart or anything but I didn't feel so comfortable anymore fighting the lycans who had been our ally for thousands of years plus now that my sister, Alessia is their queen, I am in a way, killing her people although it's for a just cause.

For one thing, whoever was leading them must be a very big coward for not being here himself and for another, whoever the person is, he must be heartless and rotten to the core for wanting to bring harm on an unborn child and her mother.

"Brothers, the young king thinks that he can scare us away with a few arrows made of silver and some awful magic done by his amateur warlocks not to mention those clowns that parades themselves as swordsmen." "We came for the lady Alessia and by the goddess' decree, we won't leave without her." said the spokesperson sinking his claws into a swordsman and ripping out his gullet.

Time passed by like the droplets of rain and soon we were on the advantage side. I began to feel some pity for the lycans who were slaughtered mercilessly.

They were just following orders. It was becoming more and more evident that we were on the advantage side and the lycans, if they don't surrender, a massacre would be all that they get. I was determined to save Alessia and that determination fueled my spirit with so much power. I continued using supernatural speed to kill lycans down to the last forties who we got surrounded.

"Now, the offer is off. It's now a repeated command. GET OUT OF MY FOREST!" I shouted sticking my sword into the chest of a lycan, watched as he groaned in pain and eventually died.

The vampire army under me where at my behest to kill these beasts or let them live.

"We've won! You'll never get those filthy hands of yours ever on my Alessia. Not again!" I added erupting my sword out of the corpse of the dead lycan.

"Ha! Ha! Ha! In your dreams Frederick. In your dreams. Who said that we ever lose?" said the spokesman who surprisingly by now was still alive and not ran through by my sword. "Alessia is coming out with us!" he added dropping his hand into a parchment located by his waist and pulled out a bottle containing a liquid that most likely seemed to be blood.

"You can't stop Lord Cassius from getting the child. No one can! Not even the goddess herself!" said the spokesman before taking in the contents of the bottled-liquid and letting out a dreadful roar.

"What the hell???"
