Kaia

The journey, to say the least, was not comfortable. As promised we agreed to meet with the king of Acirema.

While we are away, Riah promised to finish all the wedding preparations so when we got back, all I had to do was pick my wedding dress and I could get married. In a daze, I'm didn't realise the car had come to a stop. My eyes widened at the view in front of me. Large golden gates circled the large palace. I hadn't seen anything but trees for hours! "Oh wow!" I breathed, my face practically sticking out the window. The guards who were on patrol looked at me weirdly before opening the gates. I grinned sheepishly, putting my head back inside the car.

"Kaia? Why was your head out the window?" I blushed.

"Well Acirema is quite beautiful. Like, golden gates! Why dont we have golden gates at the palace entrance? We have boring black ones. Is it because we're vampires? Seriously, we aren't the typical "doom and gloom" vampire," I scoff, crossing my arms. Braelynn looks at me, quite amused. Her eyes twinkling with delight.

"If you wish for change, then change it shall be," I smile softly and take her hand.

"Sorry. I don't want to be selfish or anything. Tell me if I over step," Braelynn rolls her eyes, grinning at me as she leans in, her nose touching mine.

"Your my soon to be wife, my mate and my perfect woman, whatever you want I shall grant you," I kiss her softly before leaning away. In our love filled gaze, a cough interrupted us. I scowled at the person before coming to a halt. Shit! I think that's the king... ah fuck.

Braelynn steps out of the car and lends me a hand. I take it, leaning into her as I exit. A blush now adorned my pale cheeks. "Queen Braelynn of Ailartsua and her mate, welcome to my Kingdom." The man says. I take a moment to look over the werewolf king, my eyes widening at the size of this man. He has to be at least 7 foot! And man! He's full of muscle. I'd hate to see how his wife fairs after a nightly session in the bedroom.

I swallow at his harden gaze, and give him a sweet smile. Bowing my head a little, I greet him, "It's a pleasure to meet you King Drake," Braelynn squeezes my hand and I return the gesture.

"Well, thank you for coming on short notice," he says, gesturing towards the palace doors. We follow behind, the golden gates shutting behind us.

"We cannot stay long. We are to married by Friday," My eyes widened and I turn to Braelynn in question. She smiles softly. "I've moved the date. I can't wait to be married to you, Kaia." I smile lovingly at my mate.

"Then we shall be married then," a groan from the king stops us from being any more intimate.

"Geez Brae, can you guys be anymore horny? Seriously, no horny dogs in my house thank you," I raise a brow at him.

"Yet your a dog?" I question. Braelynn barks a laugh, kissing my cheek.

"Good one my love!" King Drake however does not look impressed.

"Right, and I'm the one not emitting my lust for one another for others to smell?" He says, crinkling his nose up before looking up the stairs. A beautiful women, with angelic features carries a little girl in her arms. A bright smile on both their faces. The kings face turns from sour to a thirsty puppy. I giggle. Now who's emitting his lust?

"Braelynn dear! It's so good to see you!" The women beams brightly, putting the little girl down into her tiny feet. I cooed as she clung to her mother's skirt, her thumb placed in her mouth. Braelynn enveloped the women with a hug. I'm assuming this is the Queen.

"It's been a long time. About 4 centuries no?" My eyes widen. She's been alive for that long!? I narrowed my eyes on Braelynn. I'm sure to have a word with her later. I went to speak up and announce my presence but I was pounced on. I fell into my butt, a little brown wolf cub sat in my lap. My eyes widened as it started licking my face. I giggle loudly, holding the pup.

"Ben! Down!" The Queen gasps. I pick the pup, standing next to Braelynn. "I'm so sorry! Ben isn't usually this excited," the Queen who I have learnt her name, says. I smile and hand over the pup.

"That's quite alright. Oh! I haven't introduced my self," I bow sightly. "I'm Kaia, Braelynns mate and soon to be wife,"

"Your getting married! Oh my! When's the date? Oh! Where's my invitation?" My mouth slackens at the words spilling out of the women's mouth a mile a minute. Braelynn wraps an arm around my waist.

"Friday hopefully. Yes, we've sent you an invite," The Queen turns her glare to the King.

"Drakkkeeee," she drawls, her eyes turning a golden brown. "Why in the name of Moon Goddess did you tell them to come here! We are quite alright here and the hunters have been sorted out! They are getting married on Friday! And today is Sunday! Goddess!" The pup and the little girl nodded, as if agreeing win their mother.

King Drake looked at her sheepishly, "I... well I missed Braelynn. She is my sister after all..."

"SISTER?!" I shriek. Braelynn looks at me guilty. "Braelynnnn," I drawl lowly.

"You two! Ugh siblings so alike!" The Queen huffs, putting her free arm on her hip. I do the same, feeling kinda annoyed at this information.

"How is it possible? Your a vampire and he's a wolf," I say. Braelynn shrugs.

"He is actually a vampire turned wolf.  He was suppose to be the vampire king but he was stupid and got bitten by a werewolf. So now he's a werewolf half vampire ," I frown, still slightly confused. Braelynn shook her head, kissing the crown of my head.

"I'll explain later," I narrow my eyes on her.

"You better, or no sex for the rest of the week. And you'll be sleeping in the couch," I warn. She gulps nodding rapidly. I grin in satisfaction.

"Now, where were we... right! There was no need for you two to come, we have sorted out the hunters with no problem," The Queen says, smiling.

"So there was no point in us coming?" Braelynn asks quite shocked. Drake pouts like a child.

"I just wanted to see Brae Brae! She wouldn't of came if I didn't fake an emergency." This King... Braelynn growls lowly.

"You insufferable dog! Of course I would of came you idiot! Your the only family member I can tolerate," she huffs, her arms tightening around me.

In the mists of the siblings arguing, a tug of my skirt caught my attention. The little girl was standing by my feet, her little hand tugging my dress. I smiled softly at the little girl and she jumped on her little feet, arms in the air. "Ups," she lips. I pick her up and bop her nose.

"Hello cutie," I greet, making a funny face. She giggles widely, grabbing my nose.

"My children take a liking to you," I turn to the Queen, the little girl now taken her head into the crook of my neck. "I'm Lyra and this is Hannah and this is Ben," The little pup nips at my hair causing me to giggle.

"I'm Kaia as You alright know. It's a pleasure to finally greet you properly," Lyra chuckles softly, gazing at the arguing siblings. I seriously don't know how they could be siblings but when I look closely there are a few similarities.

"You've changed her," she hums, a small smile on her face. I frown softly.

"Pardon?" Lyra kisses the squirming pup on the head and puts him down. When he touches land he immediately runs down the hall.

"Braelynn has changed. She's not as distant or cold anymore, and thanks to you, she's finally the old Braelynn we know," I smile and turn to Brae. My beautiful Braelynn.

"I'm glad to have changed her heart. She's wonderful and beautiful and kind and a treasure," Lyra takes Hannah from my arms.

"Well I'm glad! And you guys are getting married! How wonderful!" I sigh in delight, nodding.

"I can't wait. Even though we are bound by fate and we have eternity, it's nice to put a little title on it,"

"Very true. Anyways... DRAKE," Lyra bellows, grabbing his ear. "Nows not the time to be arguing. We need to pack our bags," we all frown.

"Bags?" He echoes. Lyra beams.

"We are going back with the Braelynn and Kaia. We are invited to their wedding," I smile and hug Braelynn from behind.

"We'd love to have you, right Brae?" I kiss the shell of her ear, causing a shudder to run down her spine.

"Y-Yes of course. No problem at all.." I grin and give Lyra a thumbs up.

"Great!" She squeals. "Meet us in the lobby and we shall head to Ailartsua!" She didn't give Drake time to argue as he pulled him up the stairs, Hannah in her arms. I turn to Braelynn, giving her an amused grin. Noticing my little play she growls playfully, turning me around so me was holding me.

"You little minx, just wait till we get home," she growls in my ear, her hands tickling my sides. I only giggle in response. I can't wait till we get home....
