13 years later.
"Thea are you ready?" Her grandma asked. She went into her room to see her packing her things.
"Thea you still haven't finished your packing. You will be late for the trip." Grandma scolded her in a soft voice.
She looked over at her granddaughter's fragile face who looking at her apologetic.
Thea smiled sheepishly at Grandma. "I forgot to pack my things yesterday and couldn't sleep whole night because I was excited for the trip and thus I woke up late." She said.
She was going for a trip. The trip was arranged by her school. Her grandma was reluctant to give her the permission but she convinced her somehow.
Grandma shoke her head at her. "When will you become responsible Thea?" She asked and started to help her with the packing.
Thea kissed her grandma's cheeks and said, "I have you with me grandma. I don't need to worry about anything." Thea smiled at her.
Grandma looked at Thea who was busy packing the things. How can she make her understand that she won't live with her for her whole life. She will die one day and than she will have to live her life without her.
She fears for the future of her granddaughter. Thea is a innocent girl who can't see bad in others. She trusts everyone easily. Her heart is soft who can't see others in pain. Her navie behavior makes her a easy target for others.
She wonders what will happen to her once she is gone.
The only person Thea has in her life is her. Her parents met with a accident and died on spot when she was three years old. She took the responsibility of Thea after her son and daughter in law died. She grew up Thea with love and care.
"Done." Thea said happily. Her packing was finished.
Grandma looked at the clock. It was nine in morning.
"You packed everything right?" Her grandma wanted to confirm.
"Don't worry grandma, I packed every necessity." Thea said.
"Thea come fast!" Ava who is Thea's friend shouted from outside.
"Coming" Thea yelled back and took her backpack. She kissed her grandma on her cheeks. "Don't forget to take your medicines grandma and take care of yourself. I will return back soon." Thea said and went away running.
"Stay with Ava only on the trip. Don't roam anywhere alone." Grandma said but Thea was gone till then.
"What will I do with this girl." Grandma said and prayed for her safety.

"I am so excited Ava." Thea said as she settled on the bus seat.
It is the first time she is going on a trip with her friends.
"Me too. I can't wait to reach the place and have fun." Ava said grinning widely.
They were going for camping.
Some boys snickered listening to their talk.
"Little girls over there are excited to have fun guys." Mason said with a smirk on his face. His friends chuckled loudly hearing him.
"Ignore than Thea." Ava said to her. Thea nodded her head. It's not like she was going to say anything.
"Ouch, the girls are ignoring us guys." Ethan said and laughed loudly. His friends joined him.
Thea looked at the teacher for help but found her busy in her phone.
The chatter in the bus was going on for some time until it was all silent.
Thea looked outside of the window. A big smile formed on her face as the cool breeze touched her face.
She could see the deep forests from the window. It looked dense. Thick fog was surrounding the whole area of the forest.
A gasp left her lips when she was something black in the forest.
Was it a castle?
She looked at the direction again but found nothing. All she could see was the thick fog and the deep forests.
Thea immediately turned towards Ava to tell her about it but saw her sleeping.
Thea sighed. Maybe she was imaging things.
It took some hours for them to reach the place.
"Woah! This is so cool." Ava said looking around.
Thea looked at the beautiful mountains in front of her. A small river was there in front of them. Birds were chirping in the sky, like a pleasant tune of music.
A smile played on her lips as she looked at the nature in front of her. A giggle left her lips as the wind played with her hairs.
"Everyone come over here!" Their teacher, Miss Emma shouted.
The students groaned and went near her.
"We all will be camping at this place. I need you all to stay in discipline and help me with arrangements. No one will wander anywhere without my permission. Is that clear?" She asked strictly.
Some students mumbled a small 'Yes Mam' while others ignored her and continued their talks.
Three hours later their tent were formed. Camping chairs were placed with a small table in middle. Firewoods were collected.
Thea looked at everything in awe. It was her first time she was ever camping and all this was exciting her.
She did went to small picnics with her grandma but that's all where she went to.
"Thea come, we will play truth and dare." Ava said and started dragging her towards everyone.
The sky changed from light blue to orange and red as the sun set down. The sunset was reflecting in the river making the whole water look orange and red.
Thea noticed everyone were sitting on the mat. She took a sit besides Ava.
Since childhood, she wasn't good in making friends. The only friend she has is Ava. She tried to make new friends but always failed badly.
"Alright let's start the game then." Mason said and spinned the bottle. Everyone cheered loudly.
Thea smiled. May be she can try to make some good friends during this trip.
But what she didn't knew was that instead of making some good friends, she will wake the sleeping lycans up.
She didn't knew that she will become the cause of awakening of the King of lycans.

Mason spin the bottle around and it landed on Kai. "Truth or dare kai?" He asked with a smirk on his face. Anybody can tell that he planning something evil in his mind. "T-truth." Kai said. He knew that if he choose dare than Mason will give him a difficult task to do which obviously he can't do. Mason and his friends sorted. "So, are you a virgin kai?" He asked as a mocking smile on his face. Thea's eyes widen hearing his question. He is so shameless. She thought in her mind. Kai blushed red before he answered, "I am." He said positive. Everyone around them laughed loudly hearing his answer. "He is such a pussy." A guy commented making Kai look down in humiliation. Thea frowned. She felt bad for K
"Truth or dare Thea?" Ethan grinned at her. Thea looked around with wide eyes. She doesn't wants to choose dare because she knew they will ask her to do something which she is uncomfortable with but if she choose truth than they will ask her wired questions. She doesn't know what to do. She looked at Ava for help. "You don't want to play Thea?" Ava asked her softly. Thea mumbled a small 'no'. "What a waste of time. Why the hell did you came here in the first place if you didn't wanted to play. Such a mood spoiler." Mia snapped at Thea angrily. Tears formed in Thea's eyes listening to her. She wasted their time and spoiled their mood too. I should have stayed in home only... Thea thought in her mind. If she wou
"This is a bad idea guys!" Damein groaned. "Shut up Damein. Stop acting like a scared kitten." Mason said and rolled his eyes. They all were walking deeper and deeper into the forest but still haven't found the castle. The dark forest was scaring everyone including Ethan and Mason but they decided to act brave. The huge trees were looking scary, almost terrifying and due to no light it was scaring everyone even more. The only source of light they had was moon. The thick fog wasn't even helping them. It was all silence until Damien again broke it. "Guys what if a wild animal comes and kills us?" He asked horrified. "Then we will first throw you to him and than run for our life." Aaron muttered gaining some chuckles. "I am not joking." Damien give him a loo
Thea looked around and that's when she realised that she is in the basement. All alone. She got up with trembling legs. Her eyes looked around. She shivered suddenly. Something about this place was off. She didn't knew why but she felt suffocated here. She felt the presence of something power, too powerful. She walked ahead with trembling legs. Her hands clutched her dress unknowingly in fear. Thea gasped when she was something shiny. She went near it. It was a crown. A crown made of black diamonds. Something in her head told her to pick the crown. With trembling hands, she touched the crown. A shiver ran down her spine. Her fingers tingled as she touched the crown. She picked the crown and placed it on her head. She giggled like a small kid as she kept the crown on her head. She felt like
"Damn guys! That was a terrifying experience." Aaron groaned. They all had reached the camp. Other students were already present there as they reached the camp before them. "There's something in that castle. I got goosebumps by just looking at it." Mia said. She had left earlier with other students. She wanted to stay with Mason but then the castle started to shake suddenly and she got scared and ran away with others. "But why did the castle started to shake suddenly? Even the ground was divided into two parts." Ava said. "I was already having this feeling that something was off about the castle. Now I am sure that the castle is indeed cursed. " Ruby said. Everyone agreed with her. "I was getting this wired feeling of being watched inside the castle. Did anyone fe
Ares, the King of monsters, sat on the majestic throne. The throne which was empty for hundreds of years was finally graced by his presence. Ares closed his eyes and a girl's face flashed in his mind. Her soft brown hair which had his Crown placed on her head. Her wide brown eyes which were filled with warmth did something to him. Her cheeks were chubby and flushed. Her lips were like two petals of Rose, so soft and ready to be claimed by him. The girl was none other than Thea. He was awake from his sleep the moment she stepped into the castle. Her soul was pure and untainted. Her presence forced him to open his eyes. He was watching her every move. The way she was rubbing her hands when she was scared, the way she was biting her lips when she was nervous, the way she would jump at a single sound, he noticed it al
"We all are going for hill trekking today. Make sure you carry all your essentials, don't carry any unnecessary things because it will make your bag heavy and you will get tired easily during the trekking. I want you all to come back here in twenty minutes." Miss Emma told everyone. Everyone listened to her and went back in their tents to pack their essentials. Thea went with Ava. It took her fifteen minutes to get everything ready. She had took the crown with her. At first, she decided to keep the crown in the tent but then decided otherwise. It's risky to keep the crown in the tent. Ava was still packing her things. "Ava I am waiting for you outside." Thea informed her. "Ok." Ava said and again got busy with her packing. Thea came outside of the tent. S
Ares closed his eyes and just like that his mate's face came in his mind. He smiled. His Thea. He wants to go to his mate again. He wants to see her, hold her in his arms and give the world's happiness to her. He sighed. He first needs to wake all the supernatural up and create his kingdom back. He needs to take over the earth again and for that he needs to wake the supernaturals soon. Not that he can't do this alone. He is very much capable of taking over the world again. His strength is no joke, when people say that he can defeat every single person in the world than they don't lie. He is powerful, extremely powerful. There is no person on the face of earth who can match his powers or even the half of his powers. If he want t
