soothsayer x bear demi-god
Unfazed by his father's unfortunate demise a year ago, the young ruler of the were-bear tribe, a tribe of immense, ruthless warriors, has taken the throne and has began to once again rebuild the torn remnants of the broken kingdom. To his dismay, the young prince quickly learns that he is assigned a wife to bare his child and continue his legacy if the same fate as his father is to befall himself.
One evening he leaves his kingdom which is hidden within the crater of a dormant volcano and decides to collect himself before his wedding. It is along his journey that he meets a whimsical soothsayer who spells demise for himself and his people. She warns that a great evil craves his peoples' blood as well as their land, and if he does not arise and take a stand, he and his people, along with his kingdom, will fall in a sea of red. The young prince is yet again unfazed, though interested in this soothsayer and her precise, descriptive visions. He befriends her and quickly learns that she is shunned by humans for her gift and he suggests that she return with him to live with his people. After realizing that she would be a brilliant addition to his council as well as their defenses, he finds himself slowly admitting that he is falling in love with this beautiful, ostentatious spirit.
Merely a day after his return home he finds that the soothsayer's predictions are coming to fruition, and even if he and his people are to survive this horrible fate ... it is written in stone that he is to marry his fiance, but how could this be when he's madly in love with a human?
