Chapter 192
In captivity, she fell in love with the king and they had him and Tatiana but then his mother killed the king in his sleep and then took her life when Antonio was only three years old and Tatiana, six months old. Naturally, the eldest brother took over and became the Lycan king and visiting the sins of the mother upon the children, Antonio and Tatiana were ostracised and exiled from the family by their brother. Their mother, Agatha, before her death was the first daughter of the wraith-kons and they took them in.
Tatiana's magic first manifested when she was two and it became certain that she would inherit her mother's magic but Antonio had no sign of magic as was expected.
However, he studied every mystic and dark art, knew every spell, every charm, every incantation by heart and even though he had no magic himself, he had far more knowledge on sorcery than anyone that had ever existed.
It came as a shock to no one when he turned fifteen and shifted into his Lycan that he offered to give it up in order to gain magic powers, believing he had no need to be a Lycan, since his family had banished him.
However, there was one vital truth that no one knew of or thought of at the time. Werewolves could give up their shape shifting ability to become sorcerers but a Lycan could not.
Werewolves were created with lesser magic than the Lycan race and the harder the blood daughters fought to take Antonio's Lycan, the harder his Lycan fought back and eventually, Antonio died.
Seven days later, he dug himself out of his grave and somehow, a secret known to him and him alone, he resurrected as a Lycan with magical powers.
The first thing he did was return to his father's palace, slaughtered his entire family with the exception of Tatiana and forced the Alpha council to crown him as the Lycan king and his reign of tyranny began. "That lawyer you are fooling around with, I'll kill him and make you eat his heart if you fail me," Antonio growls and drops her to the floor.
Tatiana spits. "His death would mean nothing to me, he is just a fun toy to play with, his family has influence in the pack, I plan to use him to get to the alpha."noveldrama
Antonio chuckles. "And what sort of games are you playing with this fun toy of yours? I can sense foreign magic on you."
"Trust me brother, it is all for the good of your cause," she replies without hesitation.
When she was healing Amara, she felt something odd about the child, something odd enough to pique her brother's interest, odd enough for him to go after her and kill her and she doesn't want the blood of a young innocent child on her hands whereas her brother would gladly bath in it as long as it served his purposes.
She stands to her feet as Antonio backs away from her, furrowing his brows.
"Brother, you can save us all the trouble by just claiming the phoenix Luna now. Isn't that why you killed Micheala, to claim the phoenix Luna before she can fulfil the real prophecy?"
According to the prophecy, the full
prophecy, which is known only to the family of the Lycans, the Phoenix Luna would be born and mated to the Alpha of the Blood oak pack born under a lunar eclipse and when the phoenix wolf rises, she will rule over the werewolf kingdom.
Antonio plans to claim the Phoenix wolf before she can rise and take over his kingdom, he wants to subdue her, make her his Luna and harness her power for himself, basically making her a puppet and him, the puppet master.
"Oh really, I can do that? I swear to
Selene I wasn't aware," Antonio replies with a placid face, his tone dripping with sarcasm. "You have your games you play little sister and
I have mine. Indeed we are not so
different."
"I am nothing like you brother, you are far more brilliant and powerful than I can ever hope to be. I couldn't comprehend the rules of the games you play and often there are none." Antonio's grim face brightens with a wide smile.
"You are right Tatiana but this time I'm playing not by my rules but the rules of the little kitten I found to play with."
Tatiana's heart breaks for whichever kitten her brother has set his evil eyes upon, she will not come out alive of his games, she still gets chills from remembering how he mutilated the body of his fated mate.
