Lakhe bolted through the woods in lightening speed chasing after a wild animal. Khaya: "He's fast." Balo: "Definitely. And dedicated. He'll make a great fit in the team. Do you think he's taking Komfort's name?" Khaya: "No. He'll have his own. Plus Lakhe will be remarried to Spho and he will be King. His son is a King. He needs a King's name." Kom: "Kadir." he walked to them and finally stood. Balo: "But that's your name." Kom: "Yes. And he's my son. He's Kadir the second because he is powerful just as I." Khaya looked back at his trainee with a scornful look. Kom: "If you even attempt to hurt him. You'll join your wife." he walked away. Lakhe jumped up in the air and grabbed the wolf snapping its neck as they both landed on the ground. He stood back up and looked at his supervisors. Khaya: "Bring it here." Lakhe grabbed it by the mouth and pulled the animal twice his size back to them. He dropped it before their feet and bowed his head. Khaya: "Your training ends tonight. The official initiation will be at the Caverns of the King at midnight. Are you ready?" Lakhe: "Yes sir." Khaya: "Go and get dressed. You've got day practical in an hour." the sun was just rising. Lakhe walked away. Balo: "What are you doing?" Khaya: "Training him." Balo: "You're straining him to be too tired to perform at his ritual tonight. You heard Sir. Are you trying to get raped by demons?" he whispered. Khaya: "I'm doing my job. Lakhe is a half demon and he needs to do what half demons do." Balo: "He's also half human and needs sleep!!" Khaya: "This is how Siyanda was trained. There was absolutely nothing wrong with him. Maybe if I'd done more he wouldn't have been such a love sick puppy. And you better shut your mouth." Balo: "You don't talk to me like that. I'm the one with the Komander blood running through their veins here." Khaya: "You know nothing about this bloodline. I have been here for over twenty years." Balo: "And you still don't have our blood. Is that why you've suddenly despised Lakhe? You are low key jealous that he's Sir's new favorite. And has labeled him his son." Khaya: "You are an imbecile." he walked away. Balo: "A Komander imbecile. Thank you very much." Lakhe walked back to their spot. Balo: "Khwela emotweni Masilakhe." (Get in the car, Masilakhe) Lakhe: "Sir Khaya said-" Balo: "Fuck Sir Khaya. You're going to sleep." Lakhe: "I don't take orders from you." Babalo turned to look at him. Balo: "If you fail that ritual tonight, be it because of fatigue or lack of concentration, you will be at Sepulcher of Shadows, those ones you saw three weeks ago. Do you understand? You've finished your amount of practicals just yesterday. Now get into that car or I will shove you in the boot and let you stay there all day." Lakhe stood still. Balo: "What the hell have they done to you? Lakhe, you don't take orders. Not from anyone except Sir. Get in the car and let's go home." Lakhe: "That's an order." Balo: "It is advice. I've seen it happen before. They really will kill you Lakhe. Being tired makes you a liability to us." he walked to his car, Lakhe following him. Khaya: "What are you doing?" he came to them. Balo: "Going home. What does it look like." Khaya: "Lakhe is not done. He's got a day practical-" Balo: "I don't give a fuck. Get in Lakhe." Khaya: "You stupid piece of shit!!! You've only been here a month a half and think you're a boss now." Balo: "I don't think I am, I KNOW I am. You're in the third rank old man. Get out my face." Khaya: "Masilakhe will be a weakling if he doesn't complete this!! Just like you!! How are you going to be feeling sorry for a demon doing their job!" Balo: "Suck My Ass." he pushed Lakhe in the passenger seat and closed the door. Balo: "And if you ever call me a piece of shit again, I'll have my brother cut off your tongue." he got in his car and drove off. Balo: "What you going to eat?" Lakhe: "I'm not hungry." Balo: "Hmm...looking bulky I see. You're all muscles and veins popping now." Lakhe looked at him. Balo: "You've never really had a sense of humor. Now that you're an HD, everything will be multiplied. And I mean everything." he winked. He arrived at their quarters. Balo: "Now, since today is your final day as a trainee, you get luxuries." he parked the car. Balo: "Pampered, fed, played with, just remember to sleep. In your own army, you have six women, at your Komand. They do anything and everything you tell them to. Since you're not married yet, have you some fun. The men in your dark army are basically your friends, your servants actually, but mainly your clique. At least two of them should know your whereabouts at all times. Three of them guard your door as you sleep. The other two are your assigned drivers. You can assign shifts to the remaining nine. Your first salary will be paid in tomorrow morning after the ritual. Exactly R500k as a gift, and 250k each month. I know you're already worth more than those peanuts but these type of connects grow your business and working income. If you were earning 30m it'll be at least 60m now. Follow me." they got out the car. Balo: "You report to Sir once a month unless he calls you himself or visits you. We have our rituals once a month. Any questions?" Lakhe: "No." Balo: "Your training is over, you can ask anything now." Lakhe: "I am now half demon?" Balo: "Technically yes. Those gruesome first six days where you felt like dying, that was it. They were embedded in you every hour. Tonight's ceremony is to name you and finish it off." Lakhe: "What is my name going to be?" Balo: "You'll hear it tonight. So you good?" Lakhe: "Yes." Balo: "Perfect. One more thing. Are you ready to see Spho?" Lakhe: "Do I have to remarry her?" Balo: "Good question. The answer is yes. That is non negotiable." they stood in front of gold double doors. Balo: "She is the queen after all. Whatever you do with your lady servants, can never reach your queen's ears or eyes. Do you understand me?" Lakhe: "Yes." Balo: "Your new bedroom." he opened the doors revealing a gold and white decorated bedroom. A gorgeous woman with long black hair stood naked with a red robe on her arm. Next to her stood another one with a gold plate holding a bottle of his favorite cognac unopened and a glass. Balo: "The others are waiting to give you a scrub in the bathroom. Remember to eat food before you sleep. Enjoy My King." he walked out.......
