We heard hear a booming voice that says well why don't you bring in the guards that found her the secretary came out and said the king will see you now we walked into the the king personal chamber and heard why are their Kimeras in my castle the guard said my king these are your daughters rescuers the king had anger on his face and he started yelling what the bloody hell do you mean why were our most hated enemy allowed into our kingdom the guard said that the princess lazuli was found in our company marching here also that there was a noble in their ranks the king asked what do you mean i stood up and said calmly that my surname was Maximilian the king had a shocked look on his face he said the demon lovers child my nephew the guards gasped so i was royalty? What a shock for everyone including me the king said you will die at dawn but the guard reminded him of the council that stated everyone had a right to fair trial the king said your trial will be at dawn choose who will represent you i said my second in command nico the king told the guards to take us to the abandoned kimera holding cell but don't lock us in and feed us raw meat (i hate raw shit) but cook said we don't eat raw meat and we would need wood to cook it the king said give them wood and dismissed us we were lead to a giant pit with an elevator powered by magic the kimera holding cell was a dank pit that was miserable and made for kimeras in our natural state a dragon like creature but most stay in their chosen species body though when we get about 1 kimera year old we start staying in our natural state so camp was bleak that night everyone milling around till lights out the everyone went to sleep and by morning the guards were yelling wake up we were led to a grand court and there was everything seemed unreal by fairy law i was not responsible for my mothers crimes i stood in court and pointed out this the court asked how did you did i know this i said my mother wanted to teach me about my heritage i know most law and the is no evidence we kidnapped the princess in fact from my talks with her she ran away the king's face was one of rage he bellowed why would my daughter run away i calmly stated she felt you were being unfair because you just want to win a war that doesn't exist the kimeras have been affected by the demon of betrayal the king's face was shocked the judge said i think the defense has said enough shall we make our decision the king shook his head. a few hours later i was found not guilty of every charge and was allowed to live in the maximilian family home which had been kept clean by the former servants who were waiting for me when i got there i was shocked to see so many of the people my mother had told me about including my old nanny she hugged me and said hello zeke and emma was beside me hugging her this is the first time i've seen my moms family home she told me so much about well i guess it's mine now the servants kneeled and said welcome home my lord i was shocked to see that and i said you have no need to kneel before me nor am i your lord but if you wish to serve me it is my humble opinion that we are equals so yes you may work for me if you wish but don't call me lord call me zeke they all had shocked looks on their faces and some had started murmuring one stood up and said you are just like your mother always humble and kind to those under her i wouldn't want to work for anyone else but your family because of how you treat us but i guess the manor is yours now we will show you to your room and then we will have to ask a few questions they lead me to into the house and we immediately saw a great hall for feast and a few piles of dishes but it was otherwise neat we were led up a flight of stairs onto an outdoor balcony with a massive bed and a few chains hanging the servants asked if i should show my guard (my squad) to the guards quarters i said no and i asked so why are my quarters outside not inside not that i don't like it he said that my mom liked it like this i told him thanks and he was dismissed we all bunked on the floor the ladies getting the bed when we woke next the sun was beating down and the head servant said that the king requests our presence we were showed to the hall where king's men were there to my shock so was the king he came forward and said that his daughter had bonded to our group and she would not come out for anyone he then asked do you think you can help i thought well shit one problem after another we were led back to the castle in the sunlight it was even more stunning than before and was massive we walked to the princesses room and heard crying i knew faires needed someone to imprint to as a father or mother figure but i thought she had with her father but her wings looked more kimera like now i realized she had imprinted to me well crap that's not good i could be executed for this it was a sin to imprint upon a kimera and she had she would not be killed but she'd be treated like a monster her whole life and just because of her instincts her father looked at my wings and realized what they looked like he gasped and asked me young man would you take her the kingdom won't know but i don't want to see her again until she's of age to take over the kingdom or i die i was utterly shocked and before i could say a thing emma said of course we would take the girl after all she cant help her own instincts and that we would need to know who she had imprinted on the king sighed then said she has bonded to your brother dear niece emma was shocked why me she probably was asking herself i had paid little mind to lazuli true but i did feel very protective of her for some reason i agreed to take her with us and returned to the manor the head servant came up to me and said we need to talk i was lead into a small room where most of the servants had gathered and i sat down and asked yes? The head servant said your mother left you this and held up a beautiful one handed sword the servants said it's the family sword i knew the sword shaped itself into whatever the new family head wielded best apparently i was the last maximilian male i was now knew what i had to do next because i would be inducted into the fairy high council
