Chapter 1: Greedy heart

That war had started centuries ago, when witches ruled the world. 

And the most powerful clan was "The heavens clans". 

Because their powes were the rarest. 

Theirs, unlike other witches, was divinity. 

Other witches tapped their powers through nature. But not the Heavens clan. 

They used powers however they want it, as long as one is a true blood of the Heavens clan.

Other powerful clans was against this, therefore, they had decided to go against them. By plotting to destry them subtly through the incubent queen.

The current king was a Lycan who was betrothed to a witch when the war started.

However, in the kingdom of Meth, marriage must be decided by both families, either for treaty or for power. For reinforcement or by coercion, to bargain for power and dominance.

No, There was no love before marriage.

Such was the law that, women has no other purpose in this world than to begat children,to please the loins of a man and look beautiful, rather than partake in the affairs of government.

Because, her feets are made for dancing to please her Lord, her body for her Lord as he wishes. For her to begat him children.

But when she openly laments about this, she is been humiliated. 

They would say, "She is not capable enough to be a woman"

But then, when Delilah Heaven a witch marries king Asa Mickelson,the first lycan king of the kingdom of Meth.

As a concubine.

The people was against this, because it is forbidden for witches to mate with lycans.

They most times begat doom.

But all of this laws becomes Babaric, outdated, archaic and redundant.

Because, Delilah had way to the king's heart. She had shoved away those laws, because the Lycan King's love for her was boundless. 

king Asa made her his queen and other concubines was against this act.

But he made her the law still.

With which whatever she says the people must follow it. 

This act brought hatred and enemies against the eastern covens. Because Delilah was a great witch, a true blood from the Heavens clan.

And after king Asa Mickelson died, a war broke out, and because the queen Delilah had begat a male Lycan. The most powerful one in history,and a true blood at that. 

Knowing what will become of her if the people of the Kingdom of Meth hears of this.

Delilah didn't wait before she headed to the Eastern covens to seek for refuge, she knew it wouldn't seat well with the Lycans.

Because she knew that been a true blood and a Lycan means he carries both blood, he is a Lycan and a wizard.

The elders of the eastern covens questions her about this forbidden fruit she had broght to life. 

"What have you done?." 

"You are to lift the curse of the moon goddess before you mate with a Lycan, since you are a true blood. Why didn't you do it? Our blood can't run through his veins, he is a Lycan from a very powerful clan and you know this."

"What more is there to make an excuse when the did gas been done. 

I didn't realize when the planted his seed"

Delilah replied embarrassed at what she had done.

"It's okay, we will suppress one for the other. He would go wild if both powers collides" .

" You have to do something, My son must become the king, other concubines are on standby. I can't risk it, after all the reason I had managed to capture the king's heart is to have his child, you must help me, I am also a true blood, and this is my first favor to ask . Please you have to help me." Delilah pleads.

After some thoughts, the eastern covens decides to help her out.

After all, all true bloods are bound to help fulfill one favor of their fellow true blood.

"We would help you, since you are a true blood, we don't turn our backs on one another."

"Thank you so much I appreciate it "

"We will have to curse a powerful demon before we lift that curse" 

The chief priestess announced. 

" What?" Delilah asked, she couldn't believe her ears.

" I mean, how do we even get a demon.? How do we even get to curse a demon when there isn't _"

" Well, their is only one powerful demon. He is called Mythagor Demin. The most powerful demon in history. We would tap his energy, and make him vulnerable, and then we'd cast a spell on him."

"And is there a way to get him?" Delilah asks with hugh hopes.

"Ofcourse we can get Mythagor Demin. But we have to cast a boundary spell on your son. "

The cheif priestess quickly assured.

"And after we lift the curse, the mate suffers a deadly fate because of him." 

"Yes, as long as my son becomes the king" 

Delilah didn't care for the future, all she wanted was the throne for her son. 

She wanted to step all over those barbaric laws. 

So after 'bargaining' with Mythagor, a demon from hell, they lifted that curse and freed her son.

After a few days, Delilah returns to the palace.

"Can you believe it my son, you are finally free. You would become King, and no one else would rule over the kingdom of Meth other than you. You know why son?. Because I can't watch your half brothers rule while you do what?. Ah! I did the right thing. A mother does not just sit by and watch her child been belittled. "

Delilah keeps saying as she pace around the king's throne .

" One day, you would seat here, and control. With powers, and you would overcome my greatest enemies. And I will rule by your side."

She let out a loud sigh of relief..

Not caring about what the world would say.

"Wow, I wish your father is here to see his son, to see that women are capable of a lot of things and not just men." 

Delilah walks to where she lay the child, caressing his face, she thinks of the name she had wasted to give him.

"So, little king, I have decided to name you Ares.

Yes! Ares Mickelson. Do you want to know why I named you Ares?. Now listen carefully " 

She urges as Ares falls asleep.

"I name you in the form of a particular Greek God because of his quick temper, aggressiveness and his unquenchable thirst for conflict. .

And his unique way of leadership.Who believes that women has the rights to rule too.

Just like Asa, your father. So do well to carry his attributes okay?, I might not be with you for long. But I will always be there with you "

"So promise me that you would do all this, I didn't come this far to loose." Delilah said, with greed in her eyes.
