NARRATOR'S P.O.V

A blissful morning in the valley. Customary chitter chatter surrounded the tiny town. It was the month of exams in the Schools and Universities, therefore the students were on their way to their respective learning places. It was pretty early in the morn and the emporiums were preparing to welcome the customers. Besides it was Tuesday and the Landscape Mart was offering 25% discount on the groceries and hence the queue of ladies was inevitable outside the huge mart. The men of the town were howbeit gathered inside the town's committee hall. The reason being that it was the time of Annual fete and as customary, the males of the town were planning how to set up everything. The fete was grand every year and this year too they had to make sure that they keep the legacy going. Surprisingly the town's committee had once again voted to take a chance on inviting the mighty King to the fete. He had fiercely rejected their friendly invitation during the carnival but now they hoped that he might show up in any case in the fete. Besides it was the plea of the town's females to invite him to the fete although his chances of showing up were anywhere close to nil.

Inside the castle was a usual picture. The omegas were unflaggingly cleaning up the castle while the cooks were preparing the noon's meal. The King who has always been an early morning werewolf, haves his breakfast sharp at 8:00 am while the queen who is always late in the mornings, haves her breakfast at 10:00 am or sometimes later. But the royal couple take the lunch and dinner together. It was 9:00 am in the morn and the queen was still fast asleep on her bed and their were strict orders to not wake her up in any case. The King because it was the monthly werewolf meeting, was inside the throne room. The Alphas from all over were present inside the throne room and the King as usual was seated on the throne, dressed up like a King is expected to.

Howbeit he was deep in thought. Perhaps pondering about increasing his family with his lovely wife. He wanted children and he wanted lots of them. He wanted to claim her his more than once and hence he wanted more kids.
"My Lord!!! " an abrupt voice from his side ended his thoughts. He turned his head to find Dravid looking at him in perplexity. The King rolled his eyes.
"What!!! " he asked in a voice laced with irritation. Dravid sighed.
"My Lord, you look lost!!!! Can I help you in any way!!! " Dravid courteously said. The King looked at him bored.
"Dravid everything is alright!!! Now tell me what issues do these people have!!! I am not going to waste much time, sharanya is going to wake up pretty soon and I want to be with her when she does!!! " he said. The Alphas stiffened at his vaguely scary voice.
"So Alpha Louis has came all the way from Spain, he asserts of frequent rogue attacks on his pack!!! " Dravid read from the big royal paper.
"It will be taken care of!!! Next!!! " said the King. Dravid parted his lips to speak up but Nakul's abrupt barge inside the throne room baffled the alphas and the King himself.
"My Lord!!!! " he panted and the King raised his brow.
"Their's a man outside, he wants to meet you!!! " he said in one breath. The King howbeit gave a bored look, the one nakul was accustomed to.
"Ask him to wait!!! I'm busy!!! " he said in a voice that brooked no denial.

Feeble footsteps approached the throne room. The heads were turned towards the door to look at the ingressing visitor. The King glared at the door as this abrupt barge wasn't appreciated by the Dark Lord. In a span of few seconds, a short figure emerged through the door. The figure was of an old man, a priest to be precise after looking at his saffron clothing, his face was plump and he walked straight past the door as if he knew the castle more than the King himself. The King gaped at the anonymous man in pure shock. In shock he abruptly rose up from his throne and the alphas rose up after seeing the King standing.
"Pandit Ji!!!! You can wait outside!!!! Lord is busy!!! " said nakul while both the King and his loyal man Dravid just stood agape. The old man chuckled. With the aid of his cane he walked forward, more closer to the foot of the stage of the throne.
"I would do that if your Lord says the same thing too!! " the old man was confident. The King finally found his way to get normal yet still the bafflement of seeing him was somehow intact. Now all the eyes were on the King, awaiting for his decision to let the overconfident man stay or toss him out of the castle.
"The meeting is dismissed!!! We'll continue this next month!!! You all can leave!!! " the King ordinated and no one had the guts to defy him in any case. Therefore the alphas quietly grabbed their belongings and egressed out of the throne room, leaving the King, Dravid and Nakul, the old man inside the throne room. Once everybody left, the King resolved to speak up.
"You............!!!!! What..........are you....doing here!!!! " the King was ne'er the one to stammer but today this oddity took place. Nakul who didn't knew anything could only gape at the scenario. The old man chuckled.
"I hope you have not forgotten me in all these years!!!! Do you?? " asked the old man. His question took the King back to the past memories, back when he ruled the earth.

FLASHBACK :-

The throne room was crowded with the number of werewolves who sat on their respective seats. The room was precisely what it looked now, excluding the members of course. The savage guffaws and laughter filled the castle with maximum commotion, yet no one could complain because the King isn't a good man when trifled with. The omegas were standing in the corner, heads down because the mighty Alpha King ordinated so. In the front was the Dark King himself. Dressed up in a royal black dhoti, upper body naked revealing his well built body, turquoise green eyes and hairs falling loosely on his shoulder. The King was dressed up a bit unprofessionally perhaps he was way too tired after defeating the King from the west, therefore he decided to dress up as comfortably as he could. Besides it was pretty late in the night and he was in a mood of some jests and laughter. Hence he called over his ministers to create a nice atmosphere which might help in evading his tiredness away.
"My Lord you should have seen the faces of his wives when I told them that they are now your property!!! " his general said while laughing. The King chuckled at that.
"Abhiman!! I don't have anything to do with those stupid women of his!!!! Give them the kitchen duties or anything you want!!! I just wanted his kingdom!! Nothing else!!!!" he said as he grabbed the chicken's leg and shred the meat with his canines. But soon he spit that out.
"What an awful taste!!!! Who'd the audacity to serve the Dark King with this bad chicken!!! " he said a bit angrily. Dravid kneeled down to the throne and began pressing his legs like a loyal servant.
"My apologies, my Lord!!!! This chicken was prepared by the wives of the King you defeated!! Guess the royality coddled ladies don't know nothing about cooking!!! Don't worry my Lord, I'll have them shifted to some other duty!!! " Dravid said. The King was a bit tired and hence didn't felt to punish those awful women.
"My Lord, please forgive me but you have so many Kingdoms, and.......so many women!!! I mean when the Kingdom is yours than the women too but why don't you keep them, like as a concubine!!! You're a King after all!!! " the minister said. The King moved his hand under his thick hairs and started.
"Those women!!! Huh!!! Their's no women on this planet which can win the Dark King's heart.!!! I conquered heaven and saw those nymphs of heaven, trust me they all are worthless!!! I don't know why everybody says that nymphs are beautiful!!! Hell no they aren't!!! " said the King. The rest nodded. Abruptly the sound of footsteps neared the throne room and all the eyes were at the door. A figure emerged through the door and behind were the running gatekeepers, yelling for the anonymous entity to stop. The King glared at the unbidden visitor.
"Who are you and how dare you enter into my property without my approval??? " asked the King angrily. The old man looked at him as if reading something on his face.
"Answer the King!!! " yelled the general. The old man stared at the King for a moment and than started.
"You were on a peregrination last week, you stumbled upon my disciple's hut. You insulted him and he cursed you!!!! Now he's locked up in your dungeon. His wife is pregnant, please I beg his freedom!!! " he said his eyes still searching something on his face. The King laughed as he sat on the throne.
"Free him, that foul mouthed yogi!!!! Huh!!!! Why??? Because his wife is pregnant!!! Well she is going to bore a human not a werewolf, so what's the need to free him!!! " he said laughing. The man didn't say anything for the next minute baffling the werewolves.
"A man weeping near the blazed body of a girl. In rage he kills five man.!!!" the man said staring at the King. The King at once stood up from his throne, agape. The man was talking about him, after all he was the one who killed five man after they tried to molest his beloved sister Urvashi. But how does this man knows about it.
"Who......are you!!!! " the King could only come up with this. The man chuckled.
"That's not your lookout!!!! But I see your destiny!!!!! " he said and the King frowned.
"I feel you are barmy!!! " he said and the man smirked.
"A curse and a beauty!!!! " he told and everybody looked at him shocked.
"What the hell are you saying!!!! " asked the King a bit edgy.
"You are hubristic and extremely proud of your powers!!!! And that would be the cause of your undoing!!!! You insulted the nymphs of heaven, making fun of their bodies just because you didn't find them appealing. You disparaged the wives of King Garuda by appointing them to your kitchen and you insulted my disciple just because he was caring for his sick wife. These are enough to lead your downfall!!!! " said the man. The King balled his fists.
"Oh really!!!! I conquered heaven and no God could do anything!!!! Do you think there is anyone on this planet who can defeat me.!!!! I bow down to no one and that shall remain as such. I am the Supreme, no one can make this Dark King bow down to him!!! Did you get that!!!! " he said gritting his teeth together. The man chuckled
"Since when did I say that you will be defeated??? " he said in a manner as if mocking him. The King raised his brow at him.
"Than??? " asked the general this time. The man pointed his finger towards the King and started.
"You'll bow to no King, no God, no devil, no nymph, no gladiator but......a mere human!!!! " he continued as everybody heard him shocked.
"Yes a human!!!! A beauty that will have you on your knees!!! You will bow down to her forever. You insulted so many women on this planet, rejected the love of hundreds of women !!!! Now it's your curse, you will cry for her!!!! You will beg for her love!!!! She'll reject you the way you do to others. You will cry every single day for her love!!!! Remember my words, you will bow down to a beauty!!!! " he said and his voice echoed in the hall. The King lightly shook his head.
"It will ne'er happen.!!! No woman is beautiful enough to steal the heart of this King!!!! " he was confident.
"Let's see!!! And I'll be on this earth until I see your misery with my own eyes!!!! That's my revenge!!!! " he declared and the King for the first time was scared.

FLASHBACK ENDS:-

"Remember me!!!! " asked the old man. The King's eyes began to tear up as he lightly nodded.
"How can't I!!!! See your curse has worked!!!! I am bowing down to a human!!! " he said as he sighed. The old man laughed.
"You were always stupid!!! You didn't realise then, nor now!!! " he said and the King looked at him shocked.
"I ne'er cursed you!!!! Nobody did, not even the Gods!!!! It was all for a reason!!!! You had to meet her, your beauty!!! We all were just aiding you!!! " he revealed and he could only gape. A lone tear escaped his eye as he realised everything was just to make him meet her. And he was stupid to hold a rage against the Gods. He immediately hugged the old man and cried. Dravid and Nakul couldn't stop their tears from flowing down.
"Don't worry my child!!!! It was no one's mistake!!!! You can't undo the destiny chosen by the Trinity!!! No matter what you do!!!! " said the old man but the King didn't reply for all he wanted was to shed those tears he had been holding back for years.
