A/N: I had put this story up under a different name but then decided to move it here. Enjoy!
PS. This story has been edited from its original form.
Prologue
~600 year in the past~
The treaty is to be signed today; a treaty to protect both humans and mythical creatures. The war, depression, and bloodshed shall stop as long as everything goes according to plan. All he has to do is sign on the line.
Dimitri was...he didn't even know what emotion he was feeling, though the two strongest of the conflicting emotions were annoyance and anger. He wanted to rip these damn greedy jackasses apart slowly, piece by piece. 'THEY were the ones who wedged themselves onto MY land. THEY were the ones who started slaughtering my people. Now they fucking want ME to sign away part of My land to themselves so THEIR people would stop being murdered!'
He despised them, but he had to sign the damn piece of paper. He was the leader- the PROTECTOR- of his people, so he would do what was needed to save his people.
He signed. He gave up 1/3 of his land and promised he would not enter their kingdom as long as they didn't enter his. Dimitri’s eyes flashed with veiled anger as he shook the stupid, fat, greedy king's hand.
He despised this world he was forced to lead.
