Fae Or Not I'm Coming For You: It's Only The Beginning
Chapter 26

“While we were laying with you I was debating waking you to give you power but we started hearing the whispers again. Fenrir decided it was the best time to replace them but I was unsure of leaving you but he promised it would be quick because he thought he knew where they were coming from. So I got up and followed him to a secret door in our room. But once we entered the tunnel we were transported to the Unseelie Realm and we were trying to replace our way back. Neither of us are from the Unseelie court so it took longer for us to navigate out of there. We knew something was wrong when Fenrir got a mind-link from you. When we finally made it out of the Unseelie Realm we realized you were no longer in the Human Realm. My mom reached out and said you were in the Grey Realm by the loch. Then we showed up here. I am so so so so so sorry that I was not there when you woke up. I know I should not have listened to him but I did not expect a trap nor did Fenrir. These people that are doing all this, are after only one thing and that is you. We need you to get your memories back to see why they are after you.” Hydrus finished explaining.

“I do not believe for one second this is just about Chris. There has to be more to it. We will figure this all out.” Acrux says.

“I do not believe it either. It just does not make sense. Do you know who your parents are at least Chris?” AnLeon asked.

“No, but Fenrir does. I have numerous dreams about stuff that does not make sense but I we can talk about that at a later time.” I said.

“We will have to ask Fenrir who your parents are when he gets back.” Acrux says.

“Well what is the plan?” Ida asks.

“Good question, and that is one of the reasons why we are here.” I said.

It took a few hours of talking to come up with a plan. Longer then I had wanted but it is a solid plan. Now we just need to implement it. We all stood at the door to Ida’s house saying our good byes. I let her know she can come anytime to see us and she can babysit any time she wants. If it were not for the fact that the whole Kingdom knew I was pregnant I would not be bringing them back to the Kingdom. But no one is really safe right now and I need to make sure they are protected til I can send them away to learn there place in all this. My forms have still been hush hush about everything and I really did not want kids this soon especially with all the danger coming at us left and right.

“Thank you again for everything you have done for me the last couple of days. I can not express how much what you did meant to me. I am hoping that soon we will be able to spend more time together.” I said to Ida.

“It is ok dear, you are a very wonderful and special women. I just hope these three can keep you and the babes safe til Fenrir gets back. I am only a call away and will come if you need me.” Ida replies.

“Ok guys are you ready to go back to the Kingdom and put our plan in motion?” I ask.

They all nod and we all give Ida a hug and say our last goodbyes.

Hydrus

“So I hear your just as pissed at Fenrir as the rest of us.” I link Acrux.

“Yes, why the hell would he stay away so long?” Acrux replies.

Sighing I link Acrux and AnLeon together, “He stayed in this Realm because of me.”

“What!” They both roared back at me,

“We met a couple hundred years ago and realized we were mates. But because of the Vow he had made to Chris before she was locked away he could not fully mate me. At the time I did not believe him and thought he just did not want to accept our bond. So I told him that I would not keep meeting him anymore until he would give in and fully mate with me.” I explained.

“As a Prince why did you not believe him about the Vow he said he made. We all know he made one, we just do not know the specifics of the Vow.” AnLeon asked.

“What did you skip your damn studies and not learn about the Vows?’ Acrux asks.

“Yes I learned about them but I was under the impression that they are not used anymore because of how unbreakable they are. The last known Vow was made over 8,000 years ago.” I replied.

“Not true. Fenrir made one 500 years ago to Chris. No it was never put in writing because the Elders wanted to erase Chris from existence. They thought she was evil incarnate. But she is not. She is pure through and through. The lives she touched before going into her prison are in the millions. I think the Elders were just jealous that people sought her and not them.” AnLeon explains.

“You need to understand Fenrir is millions of years old and has never had a rebirth. He has refused it and stuck to his ways. So making a Vow to Chris meant something to him and he would not have made it lightly either.” Acrux says.

“I understand now and Fenrir and I already talked about it. He knows he needs to go back and he knows it is going to be hard not to be with us. He will put in the work and get better. He loves us all and will fight til the end for us. I know you doubt him but please do not.” I say before breaking the link.

I walk over to Christiana to let her know I am ready and will lead that way they do not get lost. Gods and Goddesses I wish she realized how much I loved her and am sorry she had to go through that horrible birthing experience.

Christiana

I have already created breathing bubbles for Acrux and AnLeon so when we step out of the house we are ready to start heading to the Kingdom. I grab a hold of Acrux hand and he grabs AnLeon’s. AnLeon and Hydrus are each holding a babe while I hold the one for Kieth. We start swimming while Hydrus leads the way. It only takes about ten minutes of swimming to get to the lake by the Castle. We surface and walk out of the lake. I remove the breathing bubbles from AnLeon and Acrux. I check on the babe in my arms because I realize I never put a breathing bubble on her. I guess my Kelpie took care of it because she has a little bubble around her. I thank my Kelpie and remove the bubble. Once it is removed she smiles up at me, and I smile down at her.

We all walk up the path to the Castle and enter a hidden door that Hydrus showed us. It apparently is an escape route to the King and Queens apartments. I wonder why I was never told about this. But at the same time we did not even really have time for me to get the full tour of the castle. Once we make it up to enterance to the apartments Hydrus stops us quickly.

“What? Why did we stop?” I ask Hydrus.

“Fenrir sealed this door before we left. Some one was using this route to access our rooms. But the seal is gone. They should not have been able to break through it.” Hydrus explains.

Acrux moves in to the room first and makes sure everything is safe. He comes back to let us in but he has a grim look on his beautiful face. We walk in to the room and understanding dawns on me. The apartments have been trashed. It looks like who ever did this was looking for something. Furniture was destroyed our closet was ripped apart. Everything was a disaster. I mind-link the head guard to come up to the apartments.

The guys are doing whatever I do not know. But it seems like they are trying to follow something. Whatever they are following ends at the wall by our bed. But Hydrus is refusing to let the guys enter the door. That must be the door he had been talking about, so I am greatful that he did not allow them to enter. I do not need my mates disappearing on me again. I watch them standing by the door debating something then suddenly Acrux opens the door and disappears. “Not again.” I think to myself. Thankfully the others do not follow suit. They turn and walk back over to me and sit down on each side of me on the wrecked floor. Finally the head guard shows up.

“My queen what can I do for you?” He asks as he glances around the room shocked.

“First, can I have your name please? Secondly I need you to take note of what this apartment looks like and then round up all of the guards in this castle.” I say.

“My Queen my name is Theo. I will take thorough pictures of the apartments and then round up the guards as you requested.” Theo says.

“Thank you Theo. Take your time. We have been gone for almost two days and I know this is not how the apartments looked when we left. I also need a compiled list of all the people arrested at the sentencing as well as where they are now. Say we meet in two hours time. Will that give you enough time to get everything done?” I say.

“Yes my queen that is sufficient time for me to get everything done. I already have all the info you need on the ones arrested as well as where they are now.” Theo says

“Thank you Theo.” I say and dismiss him.

As theo is taking pictures and going through each room I sit quietly. When he nears the door I hold my breath but he does not seem to see it. I wonder if it is enchanted or something. But that is a question for another time. Once Theo is done and has left I look at the guys. They know what I want to know so I do not even have to ask.

“Acrux is the only one who can safely travel to the Unseelie Realm and not be harmed while following the trail we found. He will be back once he is done investigating.” AnLeon explains.

“Ok, that sounds reasonable.” I say then ask “Where is the file I gave Fenrir and the file on Persephone?”

“Also apparently Fenrir forgot to seal the otherside of the door and that was how they could come in. They could not leave that way because the door had shut. So they had to leave through our apartments.” Hydrus explains, “Persephone took her file and Fenrir has put the file you gave him in a safe.” AnLeon states.

“Theo.” I say.

“Yes your Majesty?” Theo says

“The culprit left our apartments through the front. We need to replace out if anyone saw someone leaving our apartments.” I say.

“I will look into it your Majesty.” Replied Theo.

“Thank you.” I say while Theo bows and goes back to taking pictures.

“Well now that, that is settled I need to round up all of the staff in the Castle and then round up the kitchen staff separately. I want all of the head staff kept separate from the rest. What do you guys think?” I say.

“I think we should start with separating by job description but we have to be smart about this. If someone catches wind that we are questioning people then the people involved are just going to get away or we will have dead bodies on our hands.” Hydrus says.

“I agree we need to be very discreet about this. How about we pretend we are going to throw a ball and act like we are just having meetings with every one to hash out details.” AnLeon says.

“Wow you guys have really thought this through. I am really impressed with the plan of action. But the tricky part is first. We need to figure out which guard is involved in all this if any. If none are then we have some serious security issues. Will you guys be able to tell who is involved or not?” I say.

“We should be able to based on scent and their life force signature. If the culprit came in contact with a guard then we will know.” They both explain to me.

“That is a relief. So what are we going to do with the babes for now? I really am not sure we should have them here.” I ask.

“We should keep them with us for now then, we will have mom take them for a little bit.” Hydrus says.
