Aleron and Cecilia had been king and queen for a long long time. Years and years they had ruled, together hiding a very dark secret, a truth that no one but them knew. Before the rule of the two Aleron's parents were seated on the throne and they had two children. Aleron and his brother, Arthur. They lived peaceful lives, his parents were widely accepted and everyone in the palace seemed to be happy. Things were going smoothly, until the moment Aleron's parents decided it would be time soon for them to hand the throne to their first born, the rightful heir of the crown, Arthur. 

Arthur was the one meant to have the throne, he had the king's blood in him and he was destined to rule. He was supposed to be in Aleron's place with his own family, his children next in line. That was what everyone waited for until, until one day the crown prince was found dead, murdered in his own bed. 

They never found out who did it, everyone believed it was some kind of assassin, someone sent by one of the rival purebloods and no matter how hard Aleron's parents searched for the killer they couldn't find anyone. It was as the prince's murderer was a ghost. One sent as divine punishment. 

So the case was closed and Aleron became king, Cecilia queen as his wife. 

No one knew that it was them, they were the one who had murdered the true king of BloodBound.



"What are you talking about?" Cecilia asked her husband. "There is no way to break a blood oath, it is forever." 

"There is a way. You can do it, you can free our son from the curse that you put on him. He will be able to speak freely, he will have the chance to find his lover and…"

"Speak freely?" Cecilia said as if Aleron had swore at her. "Do you know what happens to people who speak freely here Aleron? They get killed and not by me. By the Bloody People. They want to kill Kai, they have been wanting to for years. He needs to stay in the palace, silent. Not go out there and search for some kind of werewolf lover. This will place a target on his back." she told him and heard Aleron sigh, his eyes sad while he looked at her. Cecilia averted her gaze, disturbed by it. 

"And who was responsible for that, my love?" he told her, his tone gentle as if he was trying to reason with a child. "You were the one who allowed them to get close to him in the first place, you were the one responsible for the death of Kai's mate. Our son has been miserable for such a long time, don't you think it is time for you to stop being so stubborn and step back?" he asked her.

"Stubborn? You think I am being stubborn, Aleron?" she asked him back, walking away from him and walking towards the cupboards of the royal kitchen. She opened one, grabbing a glass and threw it at him again, filled with rage. Once more the king dodged it, the glass shuttering behind him. "What do you know? Do you even know how hard I have been trying to keep this place running? Do you know how fragile everything is. We stole it…we took it and now we have to fit perfectly to the part so our children will not die. I am losing more and more allies by the day, more and more purebloods begin to think that a monarchy is not needed, before we were scared of being discovered, now we are scared of being dethroned. I will do anything, anything I have to to keep this place running. Let him be miserable, at least he is alive. If he had been with that werewolf the Bloody People would have killed him in his sleep. Don't pretend you don't know that." she explained. 

"I know you are scared."

"I am not scared! Don't you dare say I am scared!" She shouted, grabbing another glass and throwing it at him. "I have been here, on my own for two centuries. Scared was the last thing I could be."

"I am sorry Cecilia." Aleron told her, taking a hasty step towards her. He placed his hand on hers, pushing it down and making her let go of the next glass she was planning on breaking. "I am sorry that I made you queen, I knew this wasn't what you wanted. I am sorry that I left you all alone, but our son…"

"Our son will be fine! He is alive, Aleron, that is the most important thing. I lost everyone, I lost you…I…I won't…"

"You didn't lose me. I am right here!"

"You left!"

"You need to fix this! Kai needs to be with the person he loves and we as his parents have to protect him from the ones that are after him." 

"Okay then. Tell me, once Kai gets his love back, once he is able to explain everything and starts being with a werewolf! A werewolf of all people, what will happen?

"He will be happy Cecilia." 

"What point is there in happiness when you will end up dead soon. There will be an uproar. A member of the royal family with a werewolf. Do you know what that is? The exact opposite of what a vampire should be and the exact kind of person the Bloody People go after, the only reason they haven't come for him is because he is away from his lover!" 

"We will protect him."

"We will? The child hates me. All of my children hate me, they won't let me have a talk with them let alone protect them! They hate me because you left, you were always away leaving me to make all the hard decisions while you came back with hugs and presents. You left me, this time for two centuries! Two fucking centuries to….to….ugh!" she screamed, slapping the aisle and breaking the edge, pieces of wood landing on the floor.

"I am sorry. I really am. But this was your mistake, my love, you are the one that needs to fix it." 

"Don't call me your love."

"It's because I love you."

"If you loved me you would have stayed here with me. If you loved me you wouldn't have forced me to become queen, if you loved me you would have ran away with me when I asked you to! If you loved me I wouldn't have to be the bad guy! Kai will die if he ends up being with him."

"There are other ways to keep our family alive than actually making them miserable! Do you understand that all of them are unhappy?" Aleron asked her.

"It is better to be unhappy and alive than to smile and then face death, Aleron."

"You need to stop being stuck in the past." 

"I am just trying to stop it from repeating itself."

"Cecilia, if you don't break his curse I will leave you and this time it will be forever." 

...

Do you think Aleron will manage to make Cecilia break the oath?
