Unknown Kingdom, Undefined [thriller book recommendations TXT] 📗

    LEO:I paced, thinking to myself about what was happening. A vampire walked behind me staying close. I was a Shifter. I was suppose to be a football star. Now I was off to Noctalli, the palace of life and death. I was to be the new king of Shifters. The only thing was, is that there were bilaines, mortals who knew us, that were out to kill me. It was just to much in one day. I looked around feeling something watching me, but it past. " Are you ready?" the vampire asked. I nodded and dstarted walking to Noctalli. 
    WILLIAM:The boy paced slow, watching the ground intently. He was to be the king of Shifters and he scarred. I knew how he felt. I was William, king of Vampires. The only difference was I already knew I was a vampire. On this journey I had to train and protect him. This was going to be hard to do. I traced the mark on my arm where a bilaine had whipped me. I shuddered the whips were made of silver, gold,bronze, and wood. I shook my head." Are you ready?" he nodded and began to walk to Noctalli. 
     ROSE:I hid behind bushes and watched William and Leo. Leo paced and William watched. Vampire and Shifter, so unknowing. A bilaine could show up and they would never know. Leave it to the werewolf to save them. I moved closer hoping not to make a noise. I knew they wouldn't see me, I'm an expert at hiding. I found it ironic that I was werewolf queen protecting the vampire king who was protecting the shifter king. The shifter king is suppose to bring peace to us. " Are you ready?" William asked. They began to walk. I followed close behind. 

   LEO:The woods were quiet. The vampire and I didn't really talk. He just walked and looked around a lot. I followed reluctantly. I wondered if I ran would I get anywhere. Probably not. I was dealing with a vampire. I felt my skin crawl. That feeling of someone watching me. We had probably walked five miles and the whole time I felt like I was being watched and followed. 
    " Hey, do you think you would know if someone was following us?" I asked. 
    The vampire turned and gave me a stern look. " Yes. I would know. Now. Continue to walk we will find a place to rest soon. " 
     Rest. Oh how I wanted some rest. And some food. Food. " So do we have any food? I'm kind of hungry. " 
    " Well I do if you continue to annoy me. " the vampire snickered. 
    I gulped rubbing my throat. It wasn't the nicest thought. 
    " We are here. " he said. 
    It was a small clearing. Trees made a perfect circle around the area and there was a dried up spot where the fire was to be built. The grass looked soft and plush. I sat down and left my legs stretch out. 
    " I'll get some wood. " the vampire said and walked away. 
      I laid down with my arms behind my head. I still freaked me out knowing I was a mythical creature. Wait. Not just a mythical creature, the king of a mythical creature. I wondered why I was the one to be king. Why couldn't someone else take the job? Someone experienced. I didn't even know what I could do. I was just found and told and then taken. What if I was the wrong guy? 
    I heard wood clatter in font of me and I sprang up. 
    " Don't doubt yourself. Your the king. I know you are." the vampire said. 
    " So you can read minds. Can all vampires do that?" 
   " No. Only me." he said bluntly. 
   " Why?"
    " Because I'm the king of vampires. You get certain gifts when your royal." 
     " Are there other royals?" 
     " Just you, me, and... One other."
     " What powers do I have?"
     " I don't know." he snapped
      I lowered my head and pulled at the grass. He fixed the fire and didn't say anything. 
     " My names William. Just so you know. " he said with a kinder voice. Which wasn't really that kind. 
     " Leo. You probably already knew that though." 
     " I'll be right back don't move" he said. 
     I saw him walk to forest and disappear behind the trees. He came back some time later holding a two really big bags. 
     "Here are some tents. Help me put them up. " he said and set the bags down next to me. 
    " Where did you get these?" I asked
     " They are hidden for travelers who come this way. There will be more the farther we walk." he said and unzipped a bag. We put the tents up. They were pretty big. It was like a family size tent. William pulled some bread and peanut butter out of a bag and handed it to me. 
    " Isn't this really old?" 
    " No. A spell was put on it so it would never run out and never go bad. " 
     I sat down and started to make sandwiches. He sat down too. 
     " So what's it like at Noctalli?"
     " It's busy. Everyone is working and warding off bilaines. Otherwise it's a very nice place to live." 
     " Hmm. Are there girls there?!"
     " Yes. Vampire and werewolf girls. All very beautiful but very dangerous. The one you should really avoid is Rose. She's the queen of werewolves. She looks beautiful. More than the other girls but she I very mean. She's just like her name. Beautiful flower that you see but you go to grab it and the thorns cut you." he seemed to be deep in thought as he spoke of her. 
     " What does she look like?" 
     " She's dark with dark hair that reaches the middle of her back. She's shorter than you and me but only by an inch or two. Her lips are big and red. But it's the eyes that lure people the most. They are like a mix of gray, blue, green, and even purple." again he seemed to be lost in thought. 
    " Do you like her?" wrong question
    He seemed to grow where he sat and his face was covered in fury. " I hate her! She is stuck up and is a complete... Bitch!" he got up and stormed over to his tent. He ripped the cover back and hid inside. 
    I sat still thinking of what just happened. He had to have liked her but she didnt want him. I couldn't wait to meet this girl. I ate my sandwich and threw dirt on the fire. I walked to my tent and fell asleep on the plastic floor

       WILLIAM:I paced back and forth in the tent. I hated her so much. She destroyed my reputation. She deliberately put that witch in my room and had her come at me. What was I going to do. That witch was attractive and willing. Then she had my trusted walk in and catch me kissing the witch. I was looked badly at. I was suppose to be the king not someone who fools with witches. When she saw my embarrassment she smiled. That horrible smile. 
     I shook my head. I had to be focused. I had to find a way to bring forth Leo's powers. There hadn't been a Shifter king since the Molasion wars. I cringed. Those wars haunted us even a thousand years from them. When all powers fought amongst each other. Four vampires, five werewolves, and two shifters survived. The shifters ran away but the vampires and werewolves joined together to create another kingdom. Shifters hadn't been heard of since. No one even knows what they can do anymore. 
    But now with bilaine forces growing and we knew that we needed the help of the shifters. Maybe if Leo became king he could call upon the other shifters and help fight this war. 
   I sat down exhaustion taking over me. I slept. 

      ROSE:I laid against a tree carving a bird out of wood. I thought of how William talked about me. He had called me a bitch.  I don't care about how he described me I cared about how he called me a bitch. Technically it was correct. I was a female dog, but he still called me a bitch. 
   My wolves roamed around me. They were regular wolves nothing special. I had ran into them on the way here. They stuck with me. 
     I heard a twig snap and all their ears perked up. ' did you hear that master. ' said one of the wolves in my head. I smelt the air and stood. Bilaines. Twenty of them. ' go around the camp but make sure not to be seen. Wait for my call' I told them. I looked at the camp ground and saw bilaines across the clearing creeping closer to the camp. They all held their whips and some held jars of magic fire. I took my cloak off and grabbed my bow. I knocked an arrow and blew at it. I saw purple poison stain the arrow head. I pulled back and waited until they got closer. One unraveled their whip and walked to the tent that Leo was in. When he came down to lash it I let go. His yell filled the air and William popped out of the tent. He attacked immediately. I smiled and ran down the  hill. " Time to get my wolf on!" I laughed. 
  
     LEO:I ran out of my tent to find William fighting what I knew had to be bilaines. William dodged and hit never getting touched cause he was using his speed. A bilaine looked at me and unraveled his whip. I got scared and punched him in the face. I ran away to the other side but turned around when I saw a wolf the size of a minivan charging toward me. When it ran its fur shined under the moon light. It was really white but when it moved it was white, gold, silver, and every other color. It ran past me and I saw its eyes. A mix of blue, green, brown, black, and purple. It was Rose I guessed. ' go into the woods and hide! Hurry' a girls voice said in my head. I obeyed not asking any questions. I crouched behind a bush and watched as the battle went on. William broke the men with his strength but always avoided the whips. Ross tossed men around like they were chew toys. Then Rose howled and wolves ran out and took down concussed men. I wanted to help but I didn't know what to do. ' Stay where you are don't help' said the voice again. Again I obeyed. Soon the men were only down to eight so they fled and disappeared into the woods. Rose changed back cringing at the pain it might have caused her. She wore a long black dress and wore no shoes. Her hair was
