"What are you doing here?!" The male growled at the sight of the shunned guest in their home, at such time of the night.
King Caesar stared at the wolf couple before him, his eyes filled with resentment knowing they were bold to address him in such a way after what they had done. "Bold, aren't you"
The male growled, the Gamma in him showcasing as he bared his teethes at the King, his mate doing the same as they both got into a protective stance. "Get out, you are not saluted in our home"
King Caesar smirked, suddenly relaxed, and found their boldness amusing, they just had something against him. He slowly strolled over to a sofa and sat himself down. "Which is why I came uninvited. I am the King, I don't need an invite to go wherever I want and you, my subject is in a lot of trouble" he smirked at them, noticing the scared look in their eyes but maintaining their fighting stance. "I could kill you right now?"

"Careful!" "Don't plummet him!" "Am not going to drop him you silly wolves and open the freaking door!" The cracking sound of a door opening could be heard. "Why the heck is this room so dark?!" SMACK! "Ouch, why did you hit me?!" "Language Caden, you are only twelve!" "I don't care!" Their fight got discontinued when they heard a loud thud, gasps filled the darkroom. "I warned you not to drop him!!" "I didn't drop him, you fools, he's on the bed already" And suddenly the lights in the room were switched on and they were consumed by brightness, three pairs of eyes stared at each other while one unconscious was lying on the bed, shirtless. Aiden & Caden, twelve years old, identical but with different personal
"Alpha Fergus dominated Otopia a year after his father's death, his sudden success left the supernatural world shocked but didn't question it as no one was audacious enough you ask. A few years later, he took over many packs and many cities were under his name. We came to realize he took over the places Azrael conquers. The beast has never staked his claim on any land while Alpha uses that's as an opportunity" Andy deciphered."That's because he's working with Azrael!"Andy shrugged. "True but his pack had been searched a couple of times but Azrael was nowhere, people have no indication against him, not when he was favored in the eyes of the King" he abruptly came to a stop, the other three following his step, he pointed at a tree with a weird marking on it. "If we cross that tree, we will officially cross over to Midnight pack and we will be barraged almost immediately""They can't if they can't detect our scent" Maye s
"I believe this would give us shelter till the storm stops" Shailyn mumbled, scraping her hands together before drying them over the catching fire, she stared around the little cave, it was satisfactorily and more affluent than the last cave she was in while outside was heavily pouring rain. "I detest storms"Skylar eyed the two boys, sitting opposite of her. "Why are you two running away from home?"Aiden sighed dramatically, wondering why they were still with these people. "We told you, we are not running away, we are just two boys going on a life and death journey""Our papa's life is in danger and he has been in a coma for a week already and we fear he might not wake up again" Caden added.Aiden surveyed their faces. "You said you are from Crystal Heart pack, how can we trust you, after all, you were trying to wriggle into this pack. You are intruders and what do you need our help with?"&
"You want us to believe you're our Mama!" Caden pointed at Skylar, an alarmed expression on his face but what shocked him more were the words that fell out from his mouth, he slowly dropped his hand, giving Aiden a side glance, noticing how his brother shook his head and facepalmed. Damn, he was really stupid."Ah!" Shailyn suddenly exclaimed, startling everyone with her sudden outburst. "You finally said it!"Skylar stared at the boys puzzled. "Am your mama?""No, you're not!" Aiden answered, sighing as he realized they had no escape from Caden's stupidity this time but this lady just claimed their papa as her mate. "First of all, our papa said his mate has colorful hair and her eyes are light and cheerful green but your hair is white and your eyes might be green but they are dark, nothing like our papa described"Skylar gasped and the others gasped as realization sunk in. "Your Papa is Azrael?"&nbs
"Finally, Alastair" Skylar softly enunciated, running her hand over the horizontal jawlines of her mate, still lying on the bed, unconscious, clearly unaware of his surroundings. "I have missed you so much, too bad you can't remember what we've been through but I hope you don't, they are memories I don't ever want you to recall" she leaned down and pressed her lips against his cheek, smiling in content to be in the presence of her mate again, after their little departure. Skylar wheeled her head over to Maye. "How can we rouse him?"Maye stepped forward, her steps a bit hesitant as remorse once again drown her. She moved over to the mattress, noticed how her boy had grown to be a mature and marvelous young man, his mother would probably smile wherever she was. With shaky hands and a gulp, Maye slowly pulled down the blankets covering his chest to his lower abdomen, they all stared in awe at the silver star on his chest that glowed furiously.
Skylar rubbernecked at the woman from head to toe, noted her convulsing form and excruciating breathings, sweating and fussing in tribulation. "I could kill you right now"Glady instantly got down on her knees. "Your highness, please have lenience, I didn't realize he was the King""No one deserves to be treated like a marionette, witch!" Skylar spat, her eyes louring and her voice eminent."Please, I don't want to die!" The witch wept, her body shaking. "I will do anything, I will give anything!" She avouched.Skylar nodded. "You have a daughter" it wasn't a question. "Your daughter shall be my servant, I don't seem to have any in this lifetime"********************************She slowly trailed her finger on his jawline to his lips, she could never forget how those carmine lips used to feel on hers, they were
"You are the Maye" it wasn't a question, he stared at the witch approximately, who gulped at his infiltrating gaze, feeling diminutive. She nodded.Skylar stared between them, she could sense the awkwardness and placidness from Maye but nothing came from Karam, she got nothing from him other than the faint mate scent.Karam but his inner cheek, his posture tranquil and collected. "The one who left me in the tomb?""Karam..."The male instantly chipped in. "My name is Azrael" his voice came out firm and dominant, Maye and Shailyn trembled at the sound of his voice, both whimpering in submissive. "You think sealing a five years old kid in a tomb was shielded""I was scared" Maye's voice wavered."Of course, you were" Karam scoffed.Skylar hated not being able to read the Lycan before her, it was vexing and she believed everyone felt it too.
"Let me out from here!" She shrieked, using her vexation to kick on the iron bars and metal with her foot, hands instantly going to her toe as she grunted in anguish and jumped on one foot. "Bloody bars!" She dropped her leg when the pain ebbed.She wheeled in circles, noticing the pesky sight of the cell.It was opaque, the irons were stale and rusted, the roof was leaking with drops of water dripping on the cold and wet floor but no ray of sunlight anywhere. The walls were stained with a red liquid, she shivered at the thought of what the red substance could be, especially with those fingerprints and traces on the wall, while this smell of blood and corpses filled the air. She instantly went back to that bar, gripping them hard, and shook them with force, letting her voice echo through every hole. "Let me out from here, it's fetid in here. You better come kill me before this whiff does"She kicked the iron bars again b
