*Meadow*

"So he said there is nothing supernatural behind all of this? Just a stupid, greedy bunch of humans trying to make the most money out of it? I just can't believe it!" I say with frustration, both of my hands up in the air. "And how did he ended up in that place with them?"

He walks slowly to me, both hands to the side as he is assessing my reaction; I drop my arms and take a deep breath, this pregnancy is making me so unstable, I can't believe it myself how volatile I have become. He finally reaches me and holds me gently but firmly, kissing my forehead and gently soothing me. "It was just a coincidence, at least that is what he says, but either if that is true or not, we have him. Now calm down and take a seat… you have been up and about all day and that can't be good for our children."

I let him guide me to the couch and sit on it, he then brings me a glass of water and I drink all of it. "I am sorry…" I manage to say and he chuckles.

    The morning was cold, but the sun promised to warm everyone in a few more hours; Meadow woke up slowly, and as she stretched her body and moved to the side, she found Caleb's place empty. She perked a brow and slowly sat on the bed, looking around for him. There was no trace of his essence and mind, which was a bit strange, but not completely unusual.She slid her feet into the comfortable slippers and walked to the bathroom to do her morning routine; a shower, not a bath, and then brushing her teeth.She stepped out of the steamed room and gasped at the sight in front of her; red roses and white orchids were covering every available surface of the bedroom, on the table, on the floor, on the chairs, on the nightstand, and finally, on the bed, where the true artistic design was on full display; the white orchids made the shape of a heart, as the red roses framed the image and accentuated it.'Caleb?! Is this why you disappeared this morning?' She sent to him and then felt the warmth

    *Meadow*"I knew I had seen you someplace else before!" Viorra's voice draws me to the kitchen, and there I find her with teeth gritting and a knife in her hand aiming at Aeneas. He is not worried, though, he is chuckling but turns his head towards me and gives me a wink."What is happening, Vi?" I ask with concern. Caleb and Kade are together with the others doing some research and meeting Demark, who traveled all the way here together with Smithson."Meadow, be careful... this vampire here...""Vampyr, I told you this already... we are vampyrs..." Aeneas says as he sighs with some exasperation."Shut up! He tried to feed off me once at a nightclub! I remember him!" She accuses him and I perked a brow and look at him.He rolls his eyes, which I find comical, and then he leans against the counter and pretends to be bored. Viorra is furious. "Vi... lower down that knife, please. Besides being useless against him, is making me and my babies nervous." I say with a firm voice.Viorr

    *Meadow*She walks gracefully towards the residence, using the trees and the plants as part of her entourage. I am glad that Caleb decided to make this gathering at our First Residence; that is how we call the place where we officially met, the one he bought in the outskirts of the city. Queen Isilwen would have had a hard time making it to the city without some display of fantastic magic around her.She bows her head slightly, a very small gesture for many, but a big one for those who know that royalty never bows to someone less than an equal. "Greetings, Queen Luna."I shake my head and lean to kiss her cheek, I feel her soft skin and the vibrations of her chuckle as I do it. "Greetings Queen Isilwen. Please stop embarrassing me, just call me Meadow.""Ah... I shall try to remember." She teases with a smile and we both turn around so she can greet Caleb, who is waiting not too far.He always greets everyone first, but Queen Isilwen is the exception to that rule. She will always

    *Somewhere in the middle of the forest*"Zareen, please! Open the door!" I hear my father for the ninth time, but with tears in my eyes, I refuse to do it. I can only take so many speeches without losing my mind. He is my father, and he is the king, I know. But I am the princess and I honestly don't want to argue about the past choices I made. If we stay together in the same room for more than a few minutes, one of us will jump at the other.I rub my arms and scratch myself again, and as soon as I notice I am doing it, I stop. I feel like a drug addict missing her doses.I sigh and sit on my bed, finally silence as my father leaves me alone. I look around and feel a bit of peace with my belongings; I don't need much to be comfortable and have always enjoyed simplicity. I take a look at the clock and sigh, watching the seconds that pull me closer to another torturous experiment.I screwed it up. I went on my own and encountered the necromancers. I was cursed and now I want to tear m

    *Zareen*I feel his presence and his eyes on me again; the winds whisper to me his location, and I know he is not far. I don't understand why, but I want to cry every time I am around the new visitors. How are they supposed to help me? How are they going to set me free?He is gone again, and I sigh. I can't help but feel helpless, although I am not going to show them that side of me. This is my burthen to carry."Hello…" His voice stuns me, at the same time it takes me by surprise. How did he manage to get so close without me noticing?I stop swinging and turn my head to the side, where I see him cautiously waiting for my answer. I sigh. "Hello." Should I be more friendly? Do I care?"Mind if I join you?" He asks and I feel confused."Why do you want to join me?" I ask almost without thinking."I am… curious about you. Among other things that... I don't understand yet." He says and I can feel a bit of sadness in his tone.I look at him again and he seems tense, almost fearful.

    *Meadow*"I talked with Viorra today, while you were with Aeneas and the Wind King, and she is so excited that Kade has finally marked her and she can hear him. I think it is wonderful." I smile as I tell this to Caleb. He tilts his head up smiling from his new favorite pillow; my belly."That is good, but why are you still a bit worried?" He says as he caresses me. He is wonderful, noticing small details like this, that I didn't even know it had me worried.I sigh. "You told Kade to take her to the pack lands, for safety. But she is supposed to be the person taking my place at the company, how is she going to do that if she starts missing work days? I am trying to figure a way to excuse her with Carter."He finally sits properly in front of me and, with a hand resting on my belly, he looks at me straight in the eyes. "Then perhaps they can remain in the city. I don't think the necromancers will dare to go in the city yet. We don't know exactly what they are capable of for now, bes

    *Caleb*Zareen is sitting and she shivers slightly at any random time. We are all focusing on Aeneas; who is studying the marks on her arms, most of them self inflicted. If there is anyone who has more experience in the field of blood curses, is him.His eyes have grown darker, to the point were there are two black pools that seem to absorb everything. "It is a self-destructing curse; they wanted her to hurt herself to the point that she would kill herself." He says as he softly holds her arms and she shivers again, tears fall on the side of her face and I look away; I wish to help, and at this time I am helpless; this is frustrating me.Wolves like Men do not like being unable to help, or unable to save their loved ones. Aeneas studies her arms, then he releases them as she shudders again. She closes her eyes and moans in pain. "I can't do this…" Her voice sounds like a whisper.Aeneas looks as if he is in pain as well, and he looks at Aeolus who seems to grow older by the secon

    *Zareen*I feel weak.But the itch is gone.I want to smile and dance and scream and laugh. But I feel too weak."You will regain strength slowly, you went through a high-stressing situation, but you survived." I hear his soft whisper in my ear.That is true, I am in his arms, and he is taking me to my room. I want to say thank you, I know I should, but I am too weak. Am I?Why is it so hard for me to let others help me? Why is it so hard for me to let them be closer to me? Why is it that I can't say thank you? I hold myself tighter to him, this stranger who has helped me survive the hardest thing in my life."Is she awake? Can she hear me?" I hear my father say. Oh no, he must be so worried for me, I should really say something now."She is going to be ok now, Aeolus. But at the moment she is slowly recovering her energy and strength. She will be awake and be talking to us all in a few hours."My heart pounds faster, I really have to thank this stranger for knowing exactly wh

    *Meadow*The sun casts a warm golden glow, as if trying to heal the scarred landscape left by the war. Fields, once lush and green, lie ravaged, but sprouts of new life fight their way through the wreckage. The earth seems to be slowly stitching itself back together, just as we are.I sit anxiously as I wait for Sol to walk down the flowered aisle. She chose this place as the setting for her wedding, and when I asked her why, she said she wanted to honor those people who fell during our battle."Look at that," Xavier says, pointing to a small group of deer grazing in the distance. "Life always finds a way.""Indeed," I reply, my voice catching in my throat. The sight is both beautiful and heartbreaking. It's hard not to think of those who never got to see this moment of renewal.Right after the battle, we spent our days rebuilding the world around us, not only the physical structures, but also the hearts and minds of those left behind. It's a slow and arduous process, but with each bri

    *Solveigh*My consciousness returns slowly, as if emerging from the depths of a murky abyss. The voices around me are hushed and indistinct, like echoes in a fog. I strain to understand them, but they remain elusive.‘Sol,’ Seth's voice resonates within my mind, warm and reassuring. ‘You're going to be okay. You need more rest before your body can fully recover.’I want to respond, to tell him how tired I am, but my limbs are heavy and unresponsive. My eyelids feel weighed down, as if encased in stone. It's frustrating, this inability to move or communicate.‘Mom... Dad…’ I try to call for them in my thoughts, hoping Seth will relay my message.Footsteps approach, and I sense their familiar presence even before I hear dad's deep, calming voice. "Seth, how is she?""Her body is still too weak to talk or open her eyes or move yet," Seth explains gently. "But she can hear us."My heart swells with gratitude. They came, just as I knew they would. I wish I could see their faces or embrace t

    *Caliope*I watch Amral crumple to the ground, his eyes rolling back as he loses consciousness. Panic surges through me like a tidal wave, drowning out all other emotions. The dark creatures circle him, preparing to tear him apart, and something inside me snaps."Amral!" I scream, my voice cracking under the weight of my fear and desperation. He can't die; not now, not like this. My love for him, my need to protect him, fuels my anger and pain. I have more to fight for than ever before."Get away from him!" I roar, focusing all my dark powers into a singular force. Shadows stretch out from my fingertips, wrapping around the monstrous beings that threaten his life. I tug at the darkness, sending the creatures flying away from his motionless body."Please, you can't leave me," I whisper, tears streaming down my face. Desperation echoes through my voice, and I feel it deep within my soul. "You can't die."The creatures recover quickly, turning their attention towards me. But I'm not afrai

    *Solveigh’s*I step through the black hole portal, and my breath catches in my throat. The darkness enveloping me is thick, almost tangible, and I feel like I'm choking on it. Panic rises within me as I sense the presence of the creatures, born from the shadows and chaos that surround us."Sol," Seth's voice rings out, startling me. He's right beside me, his strong hand gripping mine. He steadies myself emotionally. My panic begins to subside a little, replaced by a sense of calm that only Seth can provide. "We'll get through this," he whispers, his eyes filled with determination."Where are they? Amrafel, Caliope," I call out, searching for our companions. Within seconds, they materialize before us, their powerful auras cutting through the darkness. Amrafel's eyes are like twin flames, lighting up his face, while Caliope's gaze is as sharp as obsidian."Ready to fight these dark creatures?" Amrafel asks, his voice low and steady. Caliope nods, her face set in grim resolve. I feel conf

    *Solveigh*I feel like I am in a new state of existence, and every inch of my body is running with electricity; something else has replaced my blood, and the adrenaline is addictive. Seth’s hand presses on my back and I know the reason why I haven't fainted is that of him.A large creature falls close to me and I jump, but quickly regain my focus, not wanting to be distracted, but the smell that comes from its corpse is making me nauseous. I shiver slightly but lock my eyes on my brother Ian, and then I feel ready to try more.It is not the first time; I have done this before, transferring my abilities, affecting them in a way that helped them, enhancing them. I know I can do this, and so, I feel myself reach to Xavier and he shudders slightly, then his voice booms, and it starts to affect the lesser creatures that screech in what now has become a battlefield.I can’t erase the smile on my face; we are making things happen, they are stepping away, so many of them are on the floor alrea

    *Xavier*‘They are here,’ are Ian’s words. Words that reach me just as I finish kissing my mates.I rush outside and I see Ian in the middle of the large field, he is looking up to the sky and my eyes follow his. A black pool of nothingness is starting to grow, and I see the elementals panicking as they whisper things in different languages and I know my brother feels them more than me.This angers me; it is not like we weren’t expecting them. Sure, we didn’t know specifically when they were going to attack again, but we had been preparing for them.I focus on the fire elementals and I let my command voice do its job. “Gather up! Get ready! Distraction is needed very fast! Chop chop!”Uncle Aen is quickly joining them, keeping his calm as he looks at me and nods, he knows the time has come. I turn to look at my mates and I feel caught up in the same panic; my mates need to be safe.“Don’t you stand there, you need to get over there and help take them down,” Dana pulls me out from the s

    *Meadow*I rush into the cabin, and I find a small gathering in the living room. I don’t understand why everyone is here and not inside helping my Sol. Caleb quickly reaches me and we both walk straight towards her bedroom door.Until Xavier stops us.“Son?” I ask, confused and angry at the same time. “What is happening?”“Mother, wait… Sol is actually ok, she was taken to Caliope’s father to help.”His words feel almost like a foreign language to me. “I can’t feel her mind, what do you mean with all this?”I look at Caly and she actually looks back at me with a face filled with confusion and fear. It is Lucifer who speaks for her. “I have been many eons in my own prison, so I know what he is doing. He has felt a connection to Sol, so he has used her to send a message to us. He can’t hold it for long, so she should be back very soon.”Her words make some sense, and I understand why Caly is a bit shaken by this. I look at her and nod, trying to contain myself as well, showing her that

    *Solveigh*I walk through a path of tall and untamed grass. Wild dandelions fly as I walk by them, and the sun shines at its peak, yet its heat is soothing, not overwhelming. The wind blows on my face, and there is pure peace embracing me.Am I dreaming?No, this is not a dream, it is so real. I feel the grass at the tip of my fingers and I sense the texture of them. I see a cabin, a very old one, and a scarecrow that is standing in the middle of the empty land. I frown as I notice that there are no crows nor any animals around us.Everything seems so eery and quiet. Too quiet.As the seconds pass and I keep walking, I get worried, something is about to happen or is happening. I am not sure what it is, even though I keep looking all around me, but something doesn’t fit. Is like I am inside a painting, a living painting.It is when I open my mouth to talk, that I realize that I have no voice as well, and now, I know this must be a nightmare.‘Seth, can you feel me?’ I try to reach for

    *Caleb*I watch as Aen handles the elementals calmly. It is not an easy task, yet his experience in battle allows to use his command voice with every one of them. It is something out of an epic story, and yet we find ourselves helpless while we wait.Ebony and Ivory are having a small talk with Sol, the angels like her a lot, which ensures her protection. Is not like she would need so much of it, she is her own worst enemy. But to know they are fond of my daughter just makes me happy.“Where are your thoughts?” Amra asks me as I keep staring at my daughter and the angels.“My thoughts are a bit drifting, I don’t like the idea of coming to a war unprepared,” I admit to him. I know he is also worried, although he shows himself much more calm and collected.“I understand that, and it does bring me worries. I like to be in control of the situation, but nothing that is happening is under our control… in fact, I think the only thing under our control is the lack of actions.”I sigh and shak
