Painful Destiny - Part 1: The Baby

King Orofeo's P.O.V

I'm outside my palace to walk for a while in the middle of the night looking up in the sky where the stars and moon shining so bright.. until I pass so many trees and I didn't notice that I'm in the grove near in my palace... I stop walking in the big pine tree, and sat in the grass resting my back on it, and I still keep my eyes staring at the beautiful sky, I signed and closed my eyes, I could hear some owls singing seems to be humming while the sounds of crickets is everywhere... how peaceful the nights are now, not like when I am still a prince and my father is still a king... I signed heavily and my mind went back to my long long past...

"...In late 1400's vampires, wolves and witches had a big war... and my father who was sitting on the thrown, also fought for his families and own kind, we didn't have enough soldiers to bring in the war, I wanted to help him but he said that I need to stay in the palace and replace for his thrown for a while, because my mother was suffering from a unknowing illness, I only nodded my head and agreed with him, I know that it's the last time I can speak to him and see him alive... he rode his horse and along with the remaining soldiers by his side into the battle.. they disappeared from my sight when they passed the entrance gate and it slowly put it up back again....

One month passed my father and our soldiers did not return... I know the war was still not over.. but one day our five soldiers came back from the war and they pushed one big cart covering with thick blanket... I went near them and asked for my father, yet I had a feeling for the strange cart at my front.. they didn't say a word and they all stepped aside to give me a way to the cart. I looked at them puzzled but I walked towards the awaiting cart.. I held the blanket covering the cart and I jerked it off and I threw it on the ground..

I almost hit the ground, I didn't hold at the side of the cart.. I saw my father laying in this cart with no life, almost his face was covered with blood, his wearing armor is ripped from the sword that who killed him.. but my father had a ability to heal himself, how could he die in this kind of injury... my question was answered by one of the soldier...

"My Prince, your father fought for all of us, he was the most powerful leader of two race in the battle.. which is a wolves and a witches.. the big wound in his chest is made by the king of wolf... he used his ability to heal himself but the Lord of all witches didn't allow it and he use his spell to your father, he blocked all the ability of your father, we were sorry for not helping our king.. my Prince.." he said and I didn't answer... one of the elders spoke and asked the soldier who explained my father's death..

"What happened at the two leader of both race, and the battle? Isn't it over? The soldier spoke again and said that the two leader fought with each other and both got killed.. the war is temporarily stopped because both sides had no leader yet, but he assured that if both of us raced new leader or king, the war continue until the one who remain standing declared the battle are over..

After my father's funeral, my mother was totally ill, she didn't eat nor drank blood, she was so depressed by my father's death.. until one day when I visited her in her room, I see her laying in her bed.. I touched her face.. and I called her but she did not open her eyes.. not even moved.. I closed my eyes and I could only do is to hug her tightly.. I cried silently for my mother's loss.. I don't have anyone who I can call family... I didn't have siblings or cousins, I'm totally lonely in this world...

After my mother's funeral.. my Elders set a conference.. all the vampires were there, they announced the new leader of the vampire, and that was none other than me... I was not married, so they arranged my wedding to one of the daughter of our Duke.. her name is Divone, she was very beautiful and kind-hearted.. I agreed to my elders and I married Divone.. one more day passed and I heard a news.. the wolves and the witch raise their new king and Lord... the only question in my mind was.. will the battle start again?.. I'm totally tired of this war I need to end this before the three species are gone forever.. then some plan came over to my mind.. a plan that could end the battle forever... I smiled to myself and I called the Elders and told them my plan, they didn't agree initially but when I explained every details with them they all nodded their head and agreed with what I was planning....

...........................Back to the reality...........................

I'm in the middle of my past when I hear some noise in the middle of the grove.. I opened my eyes and quickly stood up and listened again very carefully at the place and I could hear some footstep.. not only footstep, the person who made that steps are not walking but running.. I ran to where I heard the sound of steps and tried to hide in the big tree when I saw a woman running towards the falls, I heard another sound of steps and I saw two men blocking her way.. the two men didn't speak, they just kept their eyes on the woman in front of them, I saw the woman's face and she had a tears in her eyes, her hands were shaking, then she spoke. "Please let me go... please.. she was begging but the men looked like they didn't hear her and one of man with black hair grabbed her by her left arm and forcing her to come back with them in where did they came from.. the woman was still begging at the men to let her go but it seems they didn't hear her...

She didn't keep her mouth shut in spite of the other man warning her to keep her mouth shut.. then the man who was holding her left arm suddenly stopped and faced to her.. then he slapped the woman on her face really hard, the woman couldn't do anything, she just cried silently... then they walked again, they almost were gone from my sight, when I heard the woman screaming... her scream was like she was in unbearable pain.. I was so curious to what happened so I carefully ran to where they were... When I saw them I quickly hid again in the big tree.. I saw the woman was now lying on the ground and holding her belly.. I didn't notice that the woman was pregnant when she was running... and when the two men blocked her way.. the men stood at her feet looking at her like they didn't know what to do to her now.. I smelled a blood from her and I looked at her.. she was now giving birth to her child... the man with black hair spoke, the one who slapped the the woman when she did not stop her mouth for begging them..

"We need to help her Ferol.." he said.. then the man nodded their head and he bent down his knee and put his right hand at the woman's belly.. and said something that I didn't understand.. then the woman screamed like she is going to die.. then in a seconds later I heard a small cry.. the other man with short hair bent down his knees and grabbed in his arms a crying baby.. I looked at the woman but she is now sleeping.. the other man took off his shirt and gave it to the man who holding the baby.. he grabbed it to him and wrapped the baby on it..

The man who had a long hair is now carrying the woman in his arms.. then suddenly the man with short hair lay down the baby in the grass. He grabbed something from his pocket and left it at the baby.. they all turned back and ran in the dark.. when they disappeared in the dark I walked towards the baby.. I bent down on my knees and I grabbed the baby and put it in my arms... I looked at the adorable face of the baby while crying... I tried my best to make the baby stop crying... and I keep my eyes with the baby's face when I noticed the gold amulet at her chest.. I get it and I saw a gold star and moon amulet with a small sapphire stone at the side... I put it up in front of my face to look clearly, then I saw a word "Volien".
