The next morning was hectic. The werewolves had to gather around so a tour would be provided. Kai was not very fond of the whole this is a little vacation trip idea but this had been the protocol for centuries. If he had been king he would simply make sure for the dogs to sign the treaties and then off they went. Staying here and playing friends was too hypocritical even for his mother who seemed to be having a really hard time to conceal her emotions.

The queen was standing in front of the locked room of the Avger armoire. It wasn't actually the place where the army kept their weapons, that would be a bit too dull to show but it was a room dedicated to the ornament like weapons made, as the tradition said, for every Avger member. There were around fifty weapons in there, all of them decorated with gems, made of shining gold each one of them worth a fortune. Every few hundred years when the resigning of the treaty was necessary the queen or king would give a tour to the armoire as a display of wealth. Nothing was happening without a reason.

Kai had no special feelings for the armoire. It was just a square room with no windows that kept a bunch of golden stuff, including his own weapon. He had never actually used it, it was as if these things were only meant for display. He doubted they could do anything any way, their complex designs and the gems that were sprawled out everywhere from the handles to the blades would make it uncomfortable to use. They looked more like works of art rather than weapons. Art that could take a life. 

Mark was not with the bunch of werewolves that waited outside the room like kids on a school trip. His wounds would probably take some time to heal, this place was hostile for werewolves in every way. The place where their curse did not trigger so they couldn't harm vampires, slowing also their healing abilities. It was in the pact his family made with the witches. The vampires would leave the mortal realms only if a safe place for them had been created. 

"Now, thank you everyone for coming today. We hope our little tour will be pleasant for you. This is the Avger armoire, it's a tradition for every family member to have a weapon forged for them, unique than anyone else in the world. Today we will be touring and seeing these works of art ike weapons." Cecilia said, forcing a smile as the doors of the armoire opened.

Exactly how Kai had remembered it, a dark place with artificial light, weapons everywhere in glass cases. He looked around, spotting his father's weapon. It was a sword, gold handle with a huge round shaped green gem in the middle. Vine designs on the blade, delicately carved. His brother's, it was a scythe made of dark metal while it had an alignment of white diamond on its wide blade, reminding Kai of constellations. Nelia's weapon was a bow, elegant, with a golden string while the arrows were forged of sapphires. Obviously this thing had never been used but the arrows looked beautiful. His mother's weapon was a whip, showcased right in the middle of the room right next to his father's. It was long, made of gold with a small blade in the end, reminding him somehow the shape of a scorpion's tail. The little tail had a rose design carved on it. The vines and the rose, it actually matched very well, the weapons of his parents.

"This one is very pretty!" Ella said with a wistful expression and tried to touch the case the weapon was kept in. One of her pack members slapped her small hand away making her pout. 

The queen, having heard her, turned her green eyes, noticing the weapon they were talking about. 

"That is Kai's weapon." The queen announced. "It is very pretty indeed." she agreed and then continued with explaining the history behind the older weapons in the room. Kai walked towards his weapon, Philip following him silently while the rest roamed the huge room. 

It was a double edged sword, looking almost like a spear but with two swords in the edges. Made out of rhodium it was one of the most valuable weapons in the room. It had a silver color, its surface extremely reflective while the swords' blade would cut you immediately. There was a moon carved on the handle, while small diamonds surrounded the round design. Kai, when he was young always wondered how he would be able to yield such a weapon, it was enormous but utterly beautiful. 

"It matches you." Philip commented and Kai looked at him. 

"You think?" The prince asked him.

"Yeah, it's elegant with not too much sparkle but still it's valuable and lethal. I wouldn't want to be cut by that blade." he joked and Kai chuckled.

"Don't worry, I am actually the only one who can wield this weapon and I would never hurt you." 

"The only one? Oh my, I didn't know my boyfriend was such a skilled fighter" 

"Is that irony I am sensing in your words?" Kai asked, squeezing his eyes and looking at him intensively. Philip shrugged his shoulders pretending to not know what the prince was talking about. "Do you want to fight me sir?"

"In BloodBound? Definitely not." the werewolf told him, raising his hands in the air in a surrendering motion.

"Good, I guess you have some self awareness." Kai told him. "Tell me…" he whispered playfully. "Do you wanna get out of here?" he asked him and Philip smiled.

"You just read my mind." 

...
