---- Out of all the Crets who were thrown into the river of death, some died whereas some were saved and made to live in a world called thend of darkness.


    Your good karma has given you a chance...


    Adrian remembers the words of the demons of death just like yesterday.


    You are not dead but you can be revived again, provided the one with the royal blood lifts the curse his own blood has set.


    Only Xavier King could bring all of them back.


    Tle was their only hope.


    And that''s when Adrian knew what he had to do.


    Tell me your wish, Son of the leader of Cret.


    I will grant you one.


    Do you need me to heal these eyes to look at the world again? The demons of darkness had asked him and it sounded like a cruel joke.


    What could one see in darkness? ---- eee What use are eyes without light.


    No...


    Then what is it? T want the power to see in the werewolf world.


    I want to see light.


    Very well.


    This second hence I give you the powers to control the shadows in the world of werewolves.


    They will be your ve yet in return you won''t see anything in the kingdom of darkness.


    Deal.


    And just like that Adrian was brought into the world of darkness where everyone soon recognised him as their King The son of Hunter Volkov.


    The Leader of Crets.


    And the king of darkness.


    ---- Doadora finishes up, telling Sierra the entire story and Sierra touches her face to realise tears dripping down her cheeks.


    She had no idea.


    Having lived locked in the castle walls all her life.


    She had no idea what was going on in the outside world.


    The atrocities gettingmited on the Cretmunity.


    Or the very fact that all these people here in thend of darkness were once upants of the werewolf world The river of death being a curse.


    And Adrians eyes.


    He wasn''t blind.


    His eyes were burned.


    Xavier''s father did it to him.


    She thought the animosity between the silvermoon pack and red moon pack was one of the biggest rivalries in the werewolf world.


    Yet she had no idea about the sh between these twomunities which no one even dared to talk about.


    Gerald made sure the name of Crets gets erased from pages of history.


    Taking our name was ---- os considered a crime and whosoever did it was punished severely.


    Thisnd of darkness was the only ce we stayed confined to...


    And what about Gerald.


    What happened to him? Doadora sighs to speak.


    His voice low.


    People say it was suicide but I have a theory of my own.


    Sadistic men like him dont kill themselves.


    What theory? T believe Xavier killed his father to ascend the throne at the age of sixteen.
