Kaspersi champion. If they thought that sending some weakling warrior to another planet for help was going to save them, then they were very much mistaken.
    “He is on Earth, my lord,” the underling replied, nose touching the floor from the depth of his bow. “They have sent him to the humans.”
    Nambroc scoffed at that. “ Humans . They are the only race more worthless than the Kaspersi. As if they could do anything to prevent the inevitable.”
    “They have been known to be resourceful at times, my king.”
    “Please. They are as skilled at killing each other as anything else. If not for their sheer stubbornness they would have wiped themselves out centuries ago. They are like icjhi ,” he said, naming a kind of pest that thrived on Blessini and were impossible to kill without also killing the plants and animals around them. “And their entire planet should be burned.”
    But it would be much too much hassle to destroy an entire planet, and there were priorities to think about, so Nambroc put that out of his mind for the moment. He had a goal that he needed to focus on.
    He pried his claws from the throne and steepled his fingers, red eyes thoughtful as he contemplated a plan. “We will need to move faster. If we allow the champion , “ and he said the word like it was something distasteful. “To succeed, then we will be back at the beginning, and that cannot happen. Do you understand me?”
    The minion nodded fervently. “What must we do?”
    “We will send someone to Earth to deal with him. There are others, I’m sure, but the loss of the champion is a start. And he can lead us to the rest of them. The Kaspersi will be so much easier to destroy once they realize there is no hope for them.”
    A savage joy lit in his chest at the thought of crushing them under his heel and seizing everything that they held dear. No longer would the Vekosh have to hide and deal in secret and darkness. Their darkness could spread and cover the planet, wiping out one race after another until everything was theirs by right of how they’d won it.
    They didn’t have the time or manpower to conquer another planet just yet, but the time would come when they could. When they could wipe out the humans and take the Earth’s resources for their own.
    The thought of it was enough to have his lips curling into a smile, teeth sharp and dripping with saliva and venom as he pictured himself stomping out all of his enemies. And his enemies were many at this point. So many thought they were a match for the might of the Vekosh, when really they were not even contenders in the fight that would come for them.
    But there would be time for that later.
    For now this would have to do.
    “Find whoever is working with him,” Nambroc added. “Make sure that they can no longer provide him with their assistance. Let us see how the Kaspersi fare when they don’t have someone to hide behind.”
    His minion nodded and leapt to his feet, hurrying out of the throne room to go do as he was told. The word would be spread throughout the people, and the best and swiftest would go out to make sure that Nambroc’s will was done.
    He ruled his people with an iron fist, making examples of those who sought to challenge him, and there was a reason he had been king of the Vekosh for so long. People cowered before him, and just his name was enough to strike fear into the hearts of the people most of the time. Other clans knew what he could do to them if given the chance, and it was high time that he finished wiping out the Kaspersi so he could turn his attention to the rest of them and see his conquest complete.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     

Chapter 7: A Long Time Coming
     
    Kayla had been so adamant that she didn’t need to have someone in her life to be happy. She’d always been a firm believer that she could be happy with just herself and her work and the things she’d built. And then she met Khaos and suddenly she found
