Chapter 1

In the supernatural world are a few kingdoms. One is ruled by a vampire family, another by a werewolf family. There is even one being ruled by a wizard. And of course more kingdoms with vampires or werewolves as the kings and queens. In this world are so many of all kinds that its very hard to keep track of.

There is a kingdom called Ardandon that is ruled by a very old family of vampires. In this kingdom it was a law that the prince or princes find two humans to compete against each other. They will compete to see whom is worthy of being a queen. If there is more than one prince, all princes get to find two humans for the competition. While the humans fight, so will princes. At first they will be trained by someone that knows everything about this kingdom and fighting. When the Queen is chosen, she has to watch the princes fight it out. The winner is the new King of Ardandon.

Now the current King and Queen had 5 children. Four boys of the same age and a girl that is a hundred years younger. Those boys are the princes that will be competing against each other. The oldest Prince is called Dallas, the second one is called Nicholas, the third Alexander and the fourth and youngest Cameron. The Princess is called Juliana. The Princes are old enough to look for their potential Queens. It starts here.

Present

{Divina POV}

I held the letter in my hand, contemplating what to do with it. I could burn it with just a flick of the hand or keep it. Since I wasn’t sure I read it again with calculating eyes. I knew the handwriting, the seal and the owl that brought it was still sitting on chair in front of me. Why me? Why not the trainer he had? Am I gonna do it? How would I do this if I accepted?

Millions of questions racing through my mind at once with no answers. But the pay would be very good, but that didn’t matter to me. What matters is will I be able to keep my secret in that place? On the other hand I would love a challenge and I live for them. I grabbed a piece of paper and scribbled on something short and powerful before giving it back to owl. The owl took it and flew away through the open window. On the letter stood:

I accept

Your study

I grabbed my stuff and left to have some fun before I had to be at Ardandon’s Palace in a week. The offer that I accepted was to train the Princes for their competition. The funny thing was that I hated them with all my might and I never thought I would train them out of al people. Well, at least I got a chance to be cruel to them with an easy excuse. I would teach a few tricks but not all or they would catch me way to easily.

As I walked to my target I kept wondering how they would react to my methods. I was not the nicest by far. Well they’re just gonna have to deal with it.
