Prologue
More than a millennium has passed since a ruthless king controlled all the packs in the world with an iron fist, leaving no room for disobedience.
The King, rumored to be one of the first lycanthropes gave the gift to those he deemed worthy males, strong and ruthless fighters were chosen for the gift. If any woman has been born or bitten their execution would be within the hour of the turning.
This was said to be one of the most painful ways to die amid the change.
One day the King fell in love with the one we call Luna, his moon and sun.
Love, unfortunately, turned to pure hatred and rage when he found his one beloved in bed with his most trusted warrior. Not being able to control his anger he lost himself. Leaving her bruised, black and broken. He tortured her lover in front of her eyes, slowly peeling the skin from his back and removing each muscle piece by piece, letting him heal each time before he was on the brink of death.
For over 200 years his love had to see her lover tortured over and over, leaving him a shell of a man she once knew and loved.
Unfortunately, she dreaded what she knew to be growing inside of her. She would come to hate this child as it would be born from torture, hate, and rape. She has tried to get rid of the devil spawn in her, but all was lost when the King started hearing the heartbeat from deep inside her. The King showed no emotion on hearing this, only tying her up on the rock slab to not torture the creature growing inside her womb.
A day before she was supposed to give birth, the King came and ripped the child from her womb. Leaving her in pure agony for the lover to see, this sparked something in the warrior to fight for the one he loves.
The Moon cried for the lovers, not believing in what she was seeing.
Our King took the child and put him in a separate chamber two doors away from his birth mother, never knowing the feeling of love, only hatred.
When the day came for the child to turn the King decided to end his life as he was a reminder of the one he once used to love. The king made a grave mistake not knowing that the Moon let the child turn in the first week of his birth, giving him the strength to defeat the one who kept him hidden and bound from the world.
No one truly knows what happened to the previous King only that his son came out from the darkness into the castle to claim the throne as his own, defeating all those that thought they had the right to rule the kingdom on the disappearance of the beloved King.
It is said that the new King was more ruthless than the previous King as all he has ever known was hatred.
No one has seen him in the last 500 years.
There is no way of knowing what he looks like or if he is even alive.
