Ch 32 - The Beast Is Coming

last update Last Updated: 2023-03-27 10:05:56

With the weird early morning encounter out of the way, everyone woke up later in the morning. Killian had gone out for a run, and when he hadn’t returned, Calypso was worried about him, but she figured she needed to give him his space.

Instead, she could hear her sons in the kitchen, talking to Maria. They were animatedly telling the older woman about their adventures the day before. They’d been spending a lot of time with Edward, and he was teaching them many things about being a Lycan.

“MOMMY!” they shouted upon noticing her.

She laughed, heading over to hug them and kiss their foreheads. “How are my babies doing?”

“We’re doing good mommy,” Aiden replied with a toothy grin.

“Where’s daddy?” Xavier asked her.

“I have no idea. Do you want to go and help me find him?” she asked them.

“Only after they finish eating, which you have to do too young lady,” Maria scolded.

The boys laughed at their mother as she earned herself a glare from the older woman. “Yes mam.”

They had their breakfast

    Aiden was fast asleep, with Xavier choosing to stay by his side, while their parents paced in their office. They’d rushed into the house, and their friends were concerned. Cassidy was the first to step into the office.“Guys, you’re worrying us. What the hell happened out there?” she asked the mates.Calypso turned to her mate. “Lian, he said Alpha Khan, right? I didn’t hear things.”Killian rubbed his face. “He did.”“Alpha Khan? As in the first Lycan Alpha? What’s going on?” Nathan questioned, he, Zen, and Vera having followed Cassidy in.“I had a vision of sorts, and Aiden must’ve been in it. Alpha Khan has apparently delivered a message to me,” Killian informed.“Well? What’s the message?” Zen asked when his brother in mating wasn’t saying anything.“The beast is coming,” Calypso responded.“Well, that’s not ominous at all,” Cassidy stated.Nathan turned to Killian. “What exactly did you see in this vision?”“It was raining, and I guess I heard the beast growling, but I couldn’t s

    “I specifically ordered white peonies. What the hell is this?”Everyone around her was terrified of her, terrified of her next reaction. The delivery man gulped, not knowing who the mistake was on, but he knew that if he didn’t have an answer for her, she was going to make him the culprit.“My love, you can still use the roses while this man goes back to get you the peonies, right?” Zen came to the man’s defence.The man nodded quickly. “Right.”“See? Problem solved,” Zen told her.She huffed, before walking away. “Thank you, Your Highness.”Zen chuckled. “Don’t mind her. She’s just a perfectionist, but I’d get onto it with those peonies if I were you.”The man scurried off to do just that, while the Vampire Prince followed after his mate. With two days left until the wedding, she was raining fury on anyone who wasn’t playing their part.Everyone had gotten used to having her and Zen around, but none of them were getting used to her change in attitude. She’d been graceful for the firs

    The planning went on late into the night, and kicked off early in the morning. The pack members were barely rested, but they all wanted to play their part in making sure that everything goes according to plan.Nathan had negotiated with the two packs closest to the castle for accommodation for their guests, while others opted for some of the human hotels nearby. With every hour that got closer to the time, the excitement grew.Everyone had even gotten used to Vera’s demands.They finally understood that for as long as they executed everything in the way she wanted it done, then there wouldn’t be any issues. Even she was visibly calmer now that everyone was pulling their weight as expected.By late afternoon, Killian arrived with Calypso, his parents, and his sons. Calypso didn’t want to leave the boys behind, and Edward and Amaya volunteered to look after them while their parents attended to the wedding and inauguration.As soon as her brothers saw her, Nathan and Zen dragged Calypso

    Calypso believed that her vampire wasn’t her enemy. For the first time in a while, she didn’t feel any turmoil within her. It was almost as though all sides of herself were on the same page, and she welcomed that peace.She was also appreciative of the moment away with her brothers. Getting to share what was bothering her felt like she’d lifted a load off of her chest. She hugged them, and they hugged her back just as tightly, aware that she was counting on them to get her through her struggles.The siblings made it back to the castle after their talk to find everyone getting ready to have dinner. The final countdown had officially begun, and the excitement levels were higher than ever, with music blasting from all around.Killian caught Nathan and Zen’s looks, and he knew that they’d taken care of what was going on with his mate. He didn’t want to pressure her into speaking to him, but he knew that she needed to confide in someone.And he was glad she could at least open up to her si

    As promised, Hale, Killian, Vera, and Zen stuck by Cassidy and Nathan as they greeted their most esteemed guests. While the happy couple knew that the supernatural world was vast, they hadn’t expected to meet some of the species they ended up meeting.They met with some witch coven leaders, some vampire clan leaders, some pixie troupe leaders, some fairy herds, and some elven vale leaders. They were most surprised to learn that there were other creatures but that they chose not to come.As the most knowledgeable of them all, Hale had explained that unlike werewolves, vampires, witches, Lycans, and some elves who could blend in with humans, the other creatures lived in hiding in areas least populated by humans to be safe.The group of friends recognized then that there was a whole lot they still had to learn.With Vera having been in charge of the guest list, she taught the happy couple who would be attending, and those people’s significance in the bigger picture. She’d also taken care

    The tension in the air was thick, with Bradley and Cain having left the room, leaving the Queen with the three Princes and new King. No one dared to break the silence, until Vera went looking for them.“Queen Hyacinth!” she squealed upon seeing the woman.Queen Hyacinth looked over at her. “I believe you were in charge of invitations. I wonder where mine ended up.”However, despite not expecting to see the Queen, Vera wasn’t fazed by the woman’s cold demeanour. “I didn’t send the invite out because I didn’t think you’d show. You never show up to anything.”The older woman was taken aback by the bold accusation. “You know why.”“Which is why you should then understand why I didn’t invite you. Besides, with Hale here, I didn’t know how he’d feel having you here, and I felt he represented The Vale,” Vera added.The older woman looked towards her son. “Ah yes, my son.”“Your Majesty, I don’t know whether or not to apologize in this scenario, but I will introduce myself and my brother in m

    While everyone else around them was having a good time, Nathan and Cassidy were secretly worried about what was going on outside. They were both aware of the situation, and on the outside, they were all smiles.While inside, they were linking each other.“So, she just showed up and she’s pissed?” Cassidy asked her husband.“Pretty much. Killian says they’re viewing the bodies from the attack, but apparently everyone can pretty much sense the tension between Sam, Hale, and the Queen,” he replied.“Are we doing anything about it?” she asked.Nathan caught Frazier leaving. “Something tells me we won’t have to for now, but if she comes for either one of them, we take their side.”She wasn’t quite following, until a couple of minutes later when Queen Hyacinth walked in with Frazier, followed by Killian and Calypso. They were instantly worried about Hale and Samantha’s absence, something Calypso immediately sensed as she walked over to them.“Hale needs to cool down. They’ll join us in a co

    “Zen, you need to come outside. Bring Hale and no one else.”The instruction had come from his sister via link, and the Vampire Prince wasted no time following the order. He grabbed Hale on his way out, and once they were outside, they scented the Lycan couple out.They did not expect to find what they arrived to.“What the hell happened?” Zen asked them.The mates had both found a t-shirt and shorts to put on. “He was killed by those things. There were three of them. They drained his blood.”“Do you think that’s what they’re doing with the blood?” Hale asked.“I’m almost sure of it. I don’t know what the blood means for them, but I’m certain that they are part of the reason why blood is needed,” Killian replied.“We understand what you meant when you said they look like nothing you’ve ever seen before,” Calypso added.“Wait, so they just attacked this one guy and left?” Zen checked.“What are you thinking?” Hale asked him.Zen turned to Killian. “You mentioned that they lure out all

    Sage’s inquisitiveness was eating away at her. She never did well with just sitting still, and while she understood why she’d been brought where she was, the curiosity to find out where that was, was greater.She was going crazy with all the scenarios she’d already played in her mind, so she got up and tiptoed over to the door. She had no idea what awaited her outside of it, but nothing like that had ever stopped her before.She was met by a long and dark passageway, and she tried to listen out for any indication of life, but she found none. She had never wished for enhanced hearing much like she did in that moment.She left the room completely, heading down the passageway. All of the rooms she passed were locked, until she finally reached the last room. There was a fire going at the fireplace, but there was no one inside.She looked around the room and found that it was a mini library of sorts. She strode over to one of the shelves at the side of the room, running her hands on the sp

    Tyson was sitting in the middle of the empty room, trying to channel his thoughts. He knew better than to question the process, despite it being years that it had been going on. It was just one of those weird things he learnt to make peace with.He had grown up being compliant, and that wasn’t going to change any time soon. He grew up knowing that for as long as complied, he would soon have everything he’s ever desired in life.The silence carried on for what felt like forever before smoke finally started to fill the room. He got up to and waited to be addressed as the door opened. The man walked in, walking right up to him, before putting his hand on the younger wolf’s shoulder.“My son.”Tyson bowed respectfully. “Father.”“I thought you’d bring your sister along,” the man spoke.“I have Isla on a different task right now. Things have changed a little since we last spoke,” Tyson replied.The man nodded. “I have been away for some time, but now I’m back. It’s time to kick things into

    Antoinette was frozen in place, with those remaining not sure how to comfort her. Nathan was eventually the first person to move towards her, and she didn’t expect to be engulfed in a hug by him.“They’re just shocked. It’s nothing against you,” he told her.“Nate’s right. They’ve waited a long time for this day, but I don’t think either one of them really thought about what that would look like. It doesn’t help the circumstances you were reunited under,” Cassidy added.“Does anyone know about Calypso’s childhood specifically?” Antoinette asked quietly.“That would be me. I don’t really know much about before we found her, but I know we found her in bad shape. She didn’t have her memories when we did. I only learnt much later that she’d been taken and imprisoned after they killed her dad. By the time she left the pack, she was still in bad shape but she said it was needed,” Samantha recalled.“And then she met Zen, before she eventually found her way to her first mate’s pack where she

    “We obviously have our own personal issues to deal with, but the point of this trip was to find information that can help us deal with Tyson and his crew. We have delayed that for way too long. We need to go back.”The statement surprised everyone since it had come from Samantha. “Are you saying you’re done with Ameran?”Samantha turned to Queen Hyacinth. “I’m saying that Ameran has been compromised. It’s not a dead end since we did actually learn a lot and I’m sure there’s a lot more to actually learn, but we’re also all aware of the tampering that has occurred.”“In that case, I can’t leave. I need to figure out how we got compromised in the first place,” Queen Hyacinth pointed out.Hale shook his head. “You have people you trust that you can put on that case. You are needed back with us. We can’t do this without you.”Yael could see that her sister wasn’t reconciling what her son was saying. “He’s right Yara. It’s not like if you stay here, you’re going to personally be in charge o

    The creatures had long returned to the base, while Jordan was still sprinting around the territory. Besides the magic working on him, he felt like he was going insane. There was something going on and he couldn’t understand what it was.He also couldn’t get the redhead out of his mind.There was something about her, but he also had flashes of the blonde going through his mind as well. Both Samantha and Sage plagued him and he didn’t know what to believe. With everything going on with his body, he couldn’t bring himself to slow down.Slowing down also meant confronting his thoughts, so he chose to run instead.“What the hell is going on with him?” Tyson asked Jeremiah as they watched him pass by them.“I don’t know man. He’s been at it for hours,” Jeremiah commented.Tyson frowned. “The thing is supposed to have worn off by now.”Jeremiah shrugged. “Like I said, I have no idea what’s going on there. Anyway, where have you been?”“I was checking up on our allies,” Tyson responded.Jerem

    Killian stood outside, trying to understand why his Lycan had led him to where they were. He had left the room under the guise of consoling Hale, but no one had actually seen him go in a different direction to his sister and her mate.He knew that he was treading dangerously in that Queen Hyacinth could easily find his wandering of her territory offensive, but he had no choice. His Lycan had full control, and he could only follow along.His Lycan had navigated them all the way outside the castle, and they had managed to avoid being spotted by any elves, much to his surprise. He understood better than anyone that getting as far as they did in the territory they were in was no small feat.He was surprisingly given back control, and he looked around to find that he was at the edge of a huge lake.Except he’d seen the lake somewhere, and that perplexed him even further because he’d never been to Ameran before. He tried to remember the small details about what he’d seen before, and he foun

    “How was your trip?” Zen asked his little sister.She sighed, putting down the cup of coffee. “As with everything around us, complicated.”After Hale asked the question he did, silence had descended on the room, with Yael failing to find the words to answer him. As a result, he stormed out of the room, with both Samantha and Killian following him out, leaving everyone else behind.It wasn’t long before Queen Hyacinth suggested that they take a break, with her arranging for a separate room for Willa and Amaya as per their request, leaving Zen and Calypso behind. They were served refreshments and left alone while Queen Hyacinth and Yael attempted to do their own bit of damage control.“Anything useful?” Zen questioned.Calypso nodded. “We just need to decode some stuff first. When Lian and I first went in there, we were shown the day the Lycans turned, but when we went back with Sam, she seemed to see the day they were wiped out. The three of us still need to actually comb through every

    Cain was aware of the attack happening at the castle, but he had been given strict instructions to keep the pack where it was. He was pacing in his office when he received word that someone was looking for him outside.The last person he expected was Charice with a man he didn’t know.“Charice?” he called to her.She turned to him, an unexpected smile on her face. “Hey Cain.”“What are you doing here? I thought you were supposed to be hidden away?” he linked her.She looked at Sebastian, who nodded, before turning back to him. “I’m here for Isla.”Cain raised an eyebrow. “Considering everything that’s going on around us, I’m sure that your request is unauthorized.”“We want to offer her protection,” Sebastian spoke up.Cain didn’t expect the power in the man’s voice, especially given that he couldn’t pick up anything else from him. “And you are?”Before Sebastian could respond, Charice cut in. “You don’t know who he is?”“Your location has only been known to Nathan and whoever he entr

    Queen Hyacinth was still gathering herself while her guests awaited her in the grand dining hall. Hale had arranged refreshments for them. A silence had settled on them, with everyone’s trail of thinking in its own direction.For Yael, she could only think back to the last time she was here. She’d just been banished by her sister, but as she sat there, she realized that too much time had passed for her to still be angry.She’d long ago forgiven her sister.If there was anyone who understood how complicated her twin could be, it was her – that, and Willa had helped her see the truth. Growing up, everyone would highlight just how different the twins were. Yael had always been the free-spirited twin, while Yara was a lot calmer and demurer.A fitting queen.Yael never wanted that life. Even before the debacle with her mate, she never wanted to be tied down. It was always strange to Willa how she was never truly affected by losing her mate – only losing her sister truly broke her.She spe
