Chapter 1

Melina Vice walked through the halls of the huge castle, passing maids and butlers. Her heart raced at the thought of a bad outcome today.

"In here Ma'am." The maid walking next to her instructed. Melina nodded and went through the double doors that were opened for her. She protectively wrapped her arms around herself as she entered the great hall. Her husband stood at the front of the room in front of the King.

"Welcome Melina, come." The king gestured for her to move forward. She walked forward and stood next to her husband.

"This war has to end Zachariah. I am sure neither you nor Elijah remember why you're feuding." The King said shaking his head.

"I remember perfectly. He let loose his dog men onto my sheep. They killed every last one of my sheep and I had none for winter, my family nearly froze." He said crossing his arms. Melina placed a soft hand on her husband's arm. The large double doors swung open and Elijah as well as his wife Victoria walked into the hall. Melina straightened up immediately, she was no pushover and she wasn't about to let them walk all over her and her husband.

"Elijah, Victoria, good of you to join us. Please come in." The King smiled. They walked in and Elijah glared toward Zachariah, Victoria smiled kindly to them both.

"You son of a bitch, how dare you call a meeting with The King about me without consulting me first?" Elijah said.

"I don't have to consult you, you slimy bastard." Zachariah said stepping forward. Both Melina and Victoria placed hands on their husband's arms. The King stood and waved his hands.

"ENOUGH!" he shouted. The two men stopped immediately and separated, looking to The King.

"This will be done today and I have an idea." The King said sliding back down in his throne.

"Victoria, is it true that your bore a son some 200 years ago?" he asked. Victoria nodded and glanced up at her husband.

"And Melina is it true that you bore a small daughter not but two weeks ago?" he asked smiling. Melina frowned but nodded as she understood where he was going with this.

"Your children will wed. You two will certainly stop this feuding once your children are involved. Melina when your daughter reaches an age where you feel comfortable sending her to wed then she will. But she must wed before she reaches the age of 200. Shall your children not wed, this war will come to a head and both patriarchs will die, because that will solve it all. Understood?" he asked. Melina nodded curtly. She hated the idea of marrying her precious daughter to a man she would never meet, but if it meant her family went unscathed, then she would.

"Victoria, what is your son's name?" he asked.

"Dyson." she said softly.

"And you Melina, what is your daughter's name?" he asked.

"McKenzi." She said.

Dyson walked into the Dal and pressed the ignore button on his phone once more. His mother was calling him nonstop. He knew why, but he could not deal with that now. Trick looked up and smirked.

"Shouldn't you be at your parent's house?" he asked.

"No." Dyson said sternly. Trick nodded and pursed his lips, "What's up?" he asked.

"I need to know how to get out of this Trick, is there a way?" Dyson asked.

"No Dyson, there's not. It's pretty cut and dry, you either marry her, or your father dies. End of story." He said frowning. Dyson dropped his head and sighed.

"Are you kidding me?" he asked. Trick shook his head.

"No I'm not. Go pick up your wife Dyson, we'll be there in a few hours." he said. Dyson ground his teeth together and shoved away from the bar and walked out the doors. Lauren, Hale, and Bo passed him as he stormed out and they shook their head.

"What's got him so worked up?" Bo asked sitting down in front of Trick.

"He has to get married next month." Trick smiled. Everyone's jaw dropped, bewildered looks coming from each of them.

"Married, what the hell do you mean has to get married?" Hale asked.

"A very long time ago Dyson's father and another family were feuding, men fighting a silly war with no end in sight. Zachariah, the other man in the war called a meeting with The King, trying to get him to solve it. The King came up with a simple solution, marry your children. With children in the war, no one would fight. The King simply said either the children are married by the time the girl reaches 200 or the father's die. That keeps the war from igniting again. And next month she will be 200 years old." He said. Everyone was still staring and then Bo spoke up.

"Who is the girl?" she asked.

"Her name is McKenzi Vice. She's a Shifter, not wolf though. She shifts human form, she could look like anyone of you if she wanted to. However I haven't the slightest clue as to what she looks like. But we will find out soon. We're going by Dyson's loft after he picks her up." he said.

"Picks her up?" Lauren asked.

"Yeah, he's moving her in with him. He has too, they'll be husband and wife soon. Not like he wants to, his father's life is on the line though, so marriage is the only answer." Trick smirked. They all shook their heads and chuckled. Dyson, a married man, that would not work out well.

Kenzi walked through the small shops downtown, her eyes scanning the people and the various trinkets lying here and there. Her hand slipped free of her jacket and she took hold of one of the small pair of diamond earrings sitting on the edge of the table. She slipped past the woman in front of her and headed toward the street. She skipped across the street in front of a honking taxi cab and she felt her phone vibrating in her pocket. She slipped it out and glared at the screen as she answered it.

"Hello?" she said overly sweetly.

"McKenzi Brooke Vice if you don't get your ass home right now!" her mother screamed into the phone.

"Kiss my ass!" Kenzi yelled back.

"So help me god if you don't get back to this house I swear I'll send two guards after you." She said.

"Send away mom." Kenzi said and snapped the phone close. She dropped her skateboard and hopped onto it, kicking her foot out she went off down the hill.

Dyson crossed his arms over his chest as he rode silently in the backseat of his parent's SUV, he felt like a child again.

"Is your seatbelt on dear?" his mother asked with a smile in the rearview mirror.

"Yes." Dyson said rolling his eyes and glancing out the window. They were traveling past several large fields on the outskirts of town when suddenly a large house appeared in his vision. The house was huge, very large, with massive columns holding up the huge roof. Dyson's father pulled into the driveway and drove the short distance up the path. Dyson spotted two men walking a horse with a girl on its back. She appeared to be a professional rider, complete with the outfit, helmet, and boots. Dyson wondered if the girl on the horse was to be his wife. He looked over her, she was quite pretty, with small blonde curls hanging from the helmet she wore on her head. Her legs and thighs were slim as well as her upper body. Blonde was never really his type, but if she were to be his wife he'd at least have to deal with it until his father passed.

"Welcome to The Vice Ranch." A man said opening his door. Dyson hadn't realized that the car had stopped. He nodded to the man as he slid out and pulled his jacket together. He followed his parent's up the steps of the huge home and glanced back once more at the girl. She wasn't looking in his direction, which made him wonder more.

Melina huffed and puffed as she rushed around her daughter's room, stuffing clothes in five different suitcases. One had been packed last night and sat by the door, but it was full of odd clothes that her daughter enjoyed wearing. Melina could not let her daughter leave her home without any proper dresses or blouses. She zipped one of the full suitcases.

"Take those down Fred." She gestured as she grabbed up her daughter's bathing supplies. Those alone filled up another suitcase. Fred stepped up and zipped it up for her and moved it off the bed as she began working on the next one. She had so much crap she didn't know what to do with it all. But she knew she would need it all if she were to be moving in with someone. She heard a knock on the door and she looked up.

"They're here ma'am." The maid said as she stuck her head in. Melina nodded and continued packing.

"Tell Zach." She said.

Kenzi passed through the large gates as she rode her skateboard up the pathway and toward her house, she spotted the black SUV sitting outside and she glared toward it. Instead of going in she veered left and went toward the barn. She hopped off her board and pushed open the barn door. Her niece was inside putting away her large horse.

"Hey there Nick." She smiled as she slipped her hands into her back pockets. Nicole looked up and smirked as she began to undo the helmet she wore when she rode. Her blonde locks slipped down to just below her shoulders, not nearly as long as Kenzi's, but almost there.

"Your hubby is here." Nicole smirked as she backed Lightning into his stall.

"I know. I saw." she said glancing over her shoulder as one of the butlers came in.

"Ms. Kenzi, your visitors are waiting." He said.

"I know Dolmen, I'll be in shortly." She said.

"How does he look?" Kenzi asked as she turned to Nicole.

"From what I saw, sexy. Brownish-Red hair, tall, muscular, you know the deal." She smiled. Kenzi smirked and nodded, if she was going to have to marry someone she might as well marry a good looking man.

"Any who, you better get in there before grandma has a cow." Nicole said. Kenzi smirked and nodded, she shared a brief hug with her and then headed for the house.
