An uproar and opposing reactions from the faction of Princess Shiveena.

The ministers and Alpha werewolves allied to Princess Shiveena and Prince Alcyd could not accept the announcement which Prince Alarick just gave.

​​

Chaos ensued as the ministers and Alpha werewolves shifted into their wolf forms.

An evil smile was apparent in Prince Alarick's expression.

"Guards! Arrest the traitors!" commanded by Prince Alarick.

Panic and chaos were all over the royal court.

Even the royal guards are confused since their captain is missing and for the first time,

In the royal court, the Alpha werewolves and ministers are involved in an intense squabble with a member of the royal family. Most importantly towards the prime minister.

"Royal Guards! Arrest the traitors who dare to harm the prime minister. Especially towards a royal member of the royal family. You are decreed to protect the royal family and eliminate any threat to the royal family. Peace and sacredness must be preserved within the walls of the royal court. There is no excuse! This is an absolute decree of the law in our kingdom." Loudly reminded by Prince Alarick towards the hesitant royal guards.

But it forced the royal guards to immediately act upon the order of Prince Alarick and surrounded the ministers and Alpha werewolves who shifted into their wolf forms.

A shocking turn of events occurring in the royal court.

But it was all calibrated and calculated by Prince Alarick himself. To weaken the resolve and influence of the opposing faction in a legal and legitimate way.

Even the supporters of Prince Alarick are surprised with the political maneuver of the prince.

One of the ministers whispered on the sidelines while chaos is taking place.

"I could not believe this, Prince Alarick has masterfully crafted a perfect trap for the opposition to lose momentum. I doubt there will be even an investigation against him where there is a clear attempt here on his life in front of many audience." Whispered by one of the minister while they witness the chaos take place.

"Shh, he might hear us. Good thing we chose the right side of this political showdown. Looks like, Prince Alarick will be getting what he wants any time soon by now." replied by the other minister.

"What a savage prince, indeed!" another minister expressed his amusement and shock.

The opposing faction has been surrounded and outnumbered by the numbers of the royal guards.

Then the other Alphas who are in their wolf form howled in signal to their warriors positioned outside the royal court.

Immediately all the warriors on standby by the gates shifted into their wolf form knowing that there is trouble in the royal court. But the royal army appeared and blocked the way.

Even this scenario was expected and calculated by Prince Alarick.

"Do you think your warriors will save you from this funeral? All of you will pay for your attempt against me!" confidently stated by Prince Alarick.

"Arrest each of the traitors and eliminate those who dares to harm a single life in this noble royal court." Prince Alarick loudly gave his command to the royal guards.

It is known by all that there is no tolerance of violence in the royal court. Any forms of violence or attempt on the life of anyone especially to any member of the royal, an arrest is necessary.

Another entrance was heard.

King Viktor appeared and made everyone go silent.

"Enough!!! This must stop!!! We are in the middle of a war against King Lucius and all of you are aiming your claws and weapons against each other when it supposed to be aimed at our true enemy." Loudly pointed out by King Viktor to everyone.

Then an intense staring battle took place between Prince Alarick and his father.

*** Flashback ***

In the main office of King Viktor,

Prince Alarick immediately entered with his mother, Persephone, looking upset on King Viktor.

"Father, I heard Shiveena was attacked last night!" said by Prince Alarick.

"Yes, the royal guards with her are dead but she survived barely." King Viktor replied his son.

Persephone and her son looked at each other with a hint of understanding of what is going on.

…

…

Then Persephone could not kept her thoughts any longer.

"How could you harm your own daughter? Just to corner your own son!" Persephone told King Viktor without any hesitations.

"Oh, you are blaming me? How can I even do that? Weren't you the one threatening my children in front of my face?" a quick retort from King Viktor.

"Yes, I did! How I wish I could have done it personally but we will not let her live if it was our doing. What a rotten soul you have indeed!" Persephone not holding back on her words against King Viktor.

"Father, I request for a complete blocking of news and any leaks of the attacks on Shiveena. It will look suspicious to other ministers and even to the majority that she got attacked exactly night after her request to investigate me." Prince Alarick expressing his request to King Viktor.

"Why will I do that? People deserves to know what happened in the royal palace! Are you afraid of what may happen?" King Viktor viciously smile at Persephone and Prince Viktor.

Then the mother and son looked at each other once again.

"Then you will force us father to do the worst thing possible. Expect chaos tomorrow in the royal court." Last words of Prince Alarick to his father and left the main office.

But Persephone remained.

"Viktor, we are not your enemy! We are just taking what is rightfully belongs to your son. He deserves to be your heir. Then everything will be back to normal and to your control once again. But if you insist your son with Esmeralda to be your heir then you will force our son to abandon you and cause havoc to this kingdom. Only way to stop him is concede and choose him over your other children." Persephone sincerely advised King Viktor of what would be the best thing to do at the moment.

King Viktor clenched his fist tightly as he watched Persephone leave his main office.

*** End of Flashback ***

"No one is getting arrested and no one is getting investigated. Ministers and Alphas, submit your request for your interest in taking part in the royal parliament so we can process the authorization of your participation. For now, please return to your territories. We apologize for this misunderstanding." Declared by King Viktor towards the Alphas and ministers that were in the faction of Princess Shiveena and Prince Alcyd.

From this, everyone understood that King Viktor is choosing Prince Alarick and backing him up.

"Royal guards! Let the ministers and Alphas leave." A firm command from King Viktor.

Then slowly the opposing faction had no choice but to accept their total defeat against Prince Alarick.

A satisfied look was evident on Prince Alarick's face.

"Now, ministers prepare the perfect date for the officiation that my eldest son, Prince Alarick, will be the official heir to my throne." Announced by King Viktor.

================

In the main office of Prince Alcyd,

Selene has decided to confront her mate,

"Why are you avoiding me? What did I do?" Selene asked Prince Alcyd.

Then Prince Alcyd looked at Selene and has decided to confront her as well.
