He Knows Daniel's Mission

After intense training, the men collapsed on the floor. They were all sweating profusely.

“That was amazing, keep that energy up, and believe me, our kingdom will be forever free from the enemies!” Israel praised the men with a genuine smile, and they looked happy at his words.

“Thank you, Lord Israel!” The men replied cordially, smiles on their faces.

‘Lord Israel? That means he’s one of the men who accompanied the king at the princess's birthday,” Daniel reasoned as he looked at Israel.

It was as if Israel could read his mind because he turned to face Daniel at that exact moment.

“I forgot to ask you earlier, what is your name?” Israel asked him with a gentle smile.

Daniel was surprised at Israel's question, he couldn't believe that a lord was talking to him, and he bowed down.

“My Lord, my name is Daniel,” he replied respectfully, earning a smile from Israel.

“Good work today, and prepare yourself, we will both have a duo very soon, Daniel,” Israel informed him and left the room.

Everyone was jealous of Israel's words, and they turned to look at Daniel. On the other hand, Daniel was shocked, he began to blame himself for using his wolf's assistant while training.

“While that was one interesting training show to watch. I am proud of you,” Frank praised him, taking a seat near him. “Also, I must warn you to avoid fighting with those guys, they are deadly as well as jealous.” He advised him, pointing at some men. They were the same men who labeled Daniel's sexuality.

“Thanks.” Daniel appreciated and stood up to leave the training room, but he paused. “By the way, what do you know about Captain Israel and Lord Henry?” He asked unable to keep his curiosity, and Frank erupted into laughter as he stood up.

“Ahh… a curious one, aren't you? How about we go to my house, I will serve you some delicious dishes and we'll gossip over a bowl of hot soup.” Frank whispered into his ears and playfully bit him.

“Argh!” Daniel winced in pain and kicked Frank on his belly. “Motherfucker, are you a dog?” He yelled at him angrily.

Frank didn't reply to him, he held his belly as he laughed.

Their little show seemed to catch the other men's attention, and all eyes were on them again.

“He is surely a weirdo.
Very weird and confusing.” Some men murmured, just enough for Daniel to hear; to avoid unnecessary conflict, Daniel grabbed Frank's hand, and the both of them quickly left the palace, headed for Frank's house.

Lazarus's day wasn't going very well, just like Daniel, he was experiencing some difficulty, however, while Daniel had Frank by his side, Lazarus felt alone.

“Lazarus, you aren't up yet,” Maria moaned in between pleasure as she tried her best to please Lazarus. She even went as far as thrusting his huge cock into her mouth, but it was useless, and Lazarus didn't feel moved at all. His thoughts seemed to be in a dark place, his mind was consumed with Daniel's pictures and he felt frustrated.

“That’s enough Maria, you aren't helping me right now!” Lazarus grunted and angrily pushed Maria away from his cock. The young lady fell to the floor, humiliated and angry.

“Well, this is the first time something like this is happening. Maybe if you tell me what's on your mind I'll be able to assist you,” Maria volunteered with a cracky voice, and Lazarus hissed loudly.

“Nothing is on my mind. I think you've just lost your touch. I need to have another favorite mistress, someone young, and excellent in bed!” He taunted her with a grimace on his face, and without waiting for her response he hissed and left the room. Leaving Maria heartbroken.

Lazarus retired back to his room, wondering what he could do to get over the strange blue-eyed guy.

“Argh!” He sighed in desperation and began to walk around his room thoughtfully. He was so deep in thought that he didn't notice Liam's entrance.

“Now what is our king thinking about?” Liam asked with a smooth voice after a momentary silence, startling Lazarus.

“What are you doing here, Liam? Shouldn't you be attending the royal meeting on my behalf?” Lazarus asked with a stressed voice, ignoring Liam's question.

“Well, I finished it on time, and I decided to pay you a surprise visit, aren't I a darling?” He asked with a sarcasm-filled voice, and Lazarus scorned him.

“Yes, a darling to your ass.” Lazarus sneered at him and continued his thinking.

A momentary silence fell in the room, and after a while, Liam stood up. “I met a handsome young man today,” he informed Lazarus.

“And how is that any of my business?” Lazarus asked with a scowl on his face.

“You are right, he is none of your business, I just thought of telling you, thinking it might be to your interest. You see this man has the most beautiful blue eyes I've ever seen, and when he and his male friend bumped into me, I sensed a wolf's presence. But whatever, I think it's just my imagination!” Liam waved his hands, and left the room, a smug smirk settled on his lips, and Lazarus failed to see it.

Lazarus paused as Liam's words sunk into his brain, “blue eyes, wolf…. A male friend,” he couldn't explain why he felt so jealous on hearing that the strange man he had just taken interest in had a male friend.

Lazarus ran to his bookshelf, and after carefully searching for what seemed like hours, he brought out a small journal from a glass case.

“On a full moon, my destiny will be sealed” he murmured thoughtfully, staring at the journal, as he tried to interpret something.
“Wolves complete their mating bond on a full moon, and if this strange man is a wolf, that means he's likely to be the cure to my curse!” He stuttered in disbelief, and the journal dropped from his hands.

Lazarus didn't know if he was supposed to feel happy that his curse would finally be broken, or if he should feel sad that the person destined to break his curse might not genuinely care for him, and use him the same way the first man he gave out his heart to destroy him.

Suddenly, the last phrase of the curse played in his head: “But it will not be a woman who claims your heart... Instead, a bitter man, driven by a thirst for your downfall, will be the one to seal your fate.”

“My downfall…. That means he is here to destroy me, again!” Lazarus looked shocked as the reality of what was happening unfolded itself to him.
