Chapter 4

~ W ~

Kimiko sat quietly beside her grandfather as they were accompanied by the vampires for their morning meal which usually the king and the princess would have with each other unless her cousins and uncles were visiting the kingdom.

The young princess could feel the eyes of both the vampire king and his heir on her as she slowly chewed on a piece of meat that was laid upon her plate.

The meal for the werewolves was different than the one for the vampires. The royal werewolves morning meal contained only red meats anything green was not present on the golden plates while the vampires had more varieties of white and red meat with fruits on their plate.

The king's mostly conversed with each other while the female vampire spoke to her son that remained silent the entire meal so far.

The princess also remained silent a thing very unusual for her, she voiced her opinions out quite loudly for the king to hear when she was unhappy or fatigued.

The older werewolf noticed that his jewel remained quiet during the meal and concentrated her eyes on the plate that was placed in front of her.

"Kaname, where did you go last night?" Juuri voiced out loud with a pouting face.

Kimiko slowly rose her vision towards the young prince but remained silent.

The vampire prince tried to ignore his mother's comment but her persistent remained so he had no other choice but to voice the reason of his absence the previous night.

"I was searching for the princess, she was not present at the gathering."

The young vampire prince had caught both of the king's off guard.

"Ohhhh how sweet of you, did you find her?"

Kimiko decided to intervene, she did not want be lectured on her threat that she gave the prince last night by her grandfather.

"Lord Kaname did find me lady Juuri, he escorted me back to the castle after we took a walk in the woods." The young princess smiled at the queen making the female vampire clap her hands together in delight.

My my….you are quiet the mischievous princess. Kaname thought to himself as he glanced at the young princess.

"That is good, you are spending time with each other." The werewolf king commented as he took a sip from his goblet.

"Yes, after all in a few months you will be married" Haruka piped in quiet happily.

What did that man just say?

Kaname looked at his father and then at the young princess, no she is not young ….she…she is a child!

"Father" Kaname's majestic and strong voice rang in the halls as he looked at his father.

"Yes, Kaname" Haruka and the werewolf king both looked at the young prince with a serious expression.

"What did you just mean by married in a few months?" Haruka could immediately tell that his son was threatening him in a certain way that could not be easily detected by anyone other than someone who knew his son very well, and that number was very small amount of people.

Kimiko immediately noticed that lord Kaname was challenging the vampire king, he was perfect at hiding his anger.

Well… almost perfect.

"Lady Kimiko is your future queen, my son" Haruka gave his son one of charming smiles.

Kaname knew very well what that smile meant, they would talk about it in private.

The vampire queen decided to step in things could get nasty if their son decided to retaliate to Haruka, and the look on her son's face meant he was going to.

"Lady Kimiko, do you like your future husband?" Juuri asked with bright smile

The young werewolf princess choose her words wisely, it was easy thing to do but for some reason her mouth would not do the command she needed to until about twenty-five seconds later than she would have liked.

"Yes, lady Juuri, lord Kaname is very charming" She gave a kind smiled at the older female.

"Have you lost your mind!" Kaname's voiced boomed in his parents chambers as his parents sat on a lovely golden trim sofa.

The vampire prince was pacing back and forth in his parents chambers for about a twenty minutes until his voice screamed at them. It was extremely hard to get Kaname to raise his voice this was the first time they had ever heard their son yell at them or at anyone for that matter.

"Kaname dear you are over reacting." Juuri tried to calm her son like she always tried to do when an argument would break out between the father and son pair.

"Your mother is correct, we have already discuss the marriage proposal and you have agreed."

Kaname narrowed his eyes at his father, yes he had agreed to marry a werewolf princess but ….she was supposed to be a fully grown woman.

"I did agree father, but the princess has not even seen ten winters yet in this life. She is a child!" Kaname declared as he pointed a finger towards the door knowing that the young princess was somewhere within the castle behind those doors.

"The king has assured me she is worthy of you and that there is nothing to worry about." Haruka declared as he took a sip of the blood filled goblet. The werewolf kingdom had been very accommodating towards the royal vampire family needs.

Haruka could tell by the taste that the blood was from a human, after all no vampire had ever drunk blood from a werewolf. They had no idea what it would do to either party.

"She seems like a lovely young lady Kaname, she has very good manners."

Manners? Manners? Is that what his mother was talking about right now, was it not bad enough he had to marry some hairy disgusting beast but now he had to marry a child!

Kaname narrowed his eyes at the woman who gave birth to him so long ago. Juuri immediately became silent at her son's glaring stare.

This is beyond madness!

The sound of the doors slamming loudly ran through the vampire couple ears leaving an irritating ring in their ears.
