The woman pointed at Philip. Octavius' eyes widened in shock, his feet rooted to the ground as his head turned towards the direction she was pointing. His gasp was short, a sign of his surprise as one of his most trustworthy men had been exposed to making such a disgraceful mistake.

The sky had turned dark by now, shadows entering the room, dancing around them as her announcement made Philip's heart stop. How did she know him? He had never seen that woman before, he had never spoken to her but she knew his name and his face. The werewolf looked at her, his eyes innocent and disappointed as he talked to her.

"Are you sure? Are you sure it was me?" he asked, placing his palm on his chest, pointing at himself.

The woman nodded, not uttering another word.

"Thank you. You can go now, your payment will be discussed with my people." The queen said and looked at her guard. "Take her away. Oh, and young lady. Make sure that no one finds out about this. If I happen to hear that the presence of whores in the palace has been known I will personally slaughter you all." Cecilia threatened her, not even looking at her as she did so. She waved her hand, shooing her off as she focused her attention back to the three werewolves.

After the situation had been resolved, after the culprit had been revealed right before her eyes the vampires had taken their seats again. Pairs of judgmental royal eyes excruciating them. Nelia with her cold elegance, Xan with a disgusted expression and Kai with an obnoxious grin, his face declaring a silent victory.

"Now, what do you have to say for yourselves?" The queen asked them. Octavius stood straight, trying not to show how shocked or worried he was. Philip would have to face a punishment. He would have to negotiate for his life. Things suddenly turned a lit worse than he had ever imagined.

"Your highness, please be merciful towards my warrior. He is still young, he makes mistakes." The Alpha said.

"That's nonsense"" Mika interrupted, his face seeming older by the deep frown in between his eyebrows. "Will all due respect your majesty but I was with him all day. There is no way he would do something like this. I would have to be an accomplice to but the women did not talk about me. He has been set up." Mika repeated, trying to make everyone understand that it wasn't Philip's fault. Octavius shook his head, knowing very well that the red head was making the situation even worse. The queen wouldn't like being told that she was wrong.

"So tell me…" Cecilia addressed Mika. "How do you explain the fact that not only did they know his name but also his face?" she asked. Mika did not answer her, he had not thought about it that far, all he knew was that he couldn't let Philip get unfairly punished like that.

"It's alright." Philip said, giving Mika a small but courageous smile. "We had an agreement. If I was the one pointed out by that woman I would have to be punished…."

"But Philip!"

"Stop Mika." His friend told him and turned towards him, a small whisper escaped his lips. "We are not home now. Keep quiet." he advised him, his friend sighing loudly as his head fell in defeat. "I will accept every punishment you give me. I am very sorry to have caused you such distress your majesty." Philip said, bowing deeply and as it seemed pleasing the queen. She nodded, her hand resting on the half filled wine glass. She took a slow sip, her tongue gently caressing her lips as she licked the bloody liquid from them.

"Good. You can leave, I will think about your punishment and I will announce it you in a bit. Wait outside." she said and the three wolves, obeying as if they were peasants headed outside, standing behind the door. "The insolence, I let these dogs inside my house and they act like that." she said once they were gone.

Kai and Lun had remained quiet for the whole conversation. The young prince didn't want to be betrayed by his expression. He had been facing his lap this whole time, after a while he had been unable to keep his head high, a mixture of pleasure and guilt mixing inside him. Maybe his plan had been a bit too extreme, he thought as he heard about the punishment but he did not have the guts to reveal himself in front of everyone. His mother's rage would haunt him even in his dreams.

"So what will you do mother?" Xan asked as she rubbed her temples.

"I will punish that wolf of course." she said.

"Pity, he has a pretty face." Nelia commented and her mother shook her head, unsatisfied with her irrelevant comment.

"What kind of punishment?" his older brother asked again and she took a few seconds to think.

Kai grabbed his glass, gulping the wine as if he had been in the desert for days. He suddenly felt horrible, worried about his mother's announcement. He briefly stared at Lun, he didn't seem to be fazed at all, he didn't mind what would happen to that wolf but for some reason Kai felt like he had done something despicable. All he wanted was to have some fun, maybe laugh in his expense a little bit he had taken things too far.

"Is punishment really necessary?" Kai asked, speaking for the first time in a while.

"Should we kill him then?" his mother asked back and his blue eyes widened. She had taken his question the wrong way.

"No!" The young prince exclaimed, almost drowning with his wine. "What I mean is, you are trying to be friends with these guys. They will be staying here to negotiate, is it really wise to get on their bad side? What about all the other wolves he has brought? What if they start killing in revenge."

"You're being over dramatic." Xan said and Kai rolled his eyes.

"Don't you ever shut up?" Kai whispered to himself.

"I think Xan is right." Cecilia said. "He will get punished, they have to know they can't play with us. This Philip will get whipped, two hundred times." The queen announced.

At the sound of the punishment Kai shivered, jumping up from his chair, his hands gripping the handles .

"Two hundred times?!" He asked, awestruck and swallowed the lump that had been forming in his throat.

He had messed up.. Terribly.
