EP.76|The Wedding Reception (PART 3)

Milton sat in his prison box, still reading the Pablo Neruda poem book. “Milton.” A voice emitting from the shadows said.

“Lucifer.” Milton flashed a smug grin. “So, everything's going according to plan?” Lucifer smirked.

“Exactly as we planned.” Milton smirked as well, sipping his coffee.

He didn't want to do this, but he had something he need to protect at a cost.

“Good, the others should be on the way soon. Then our real fun will begin.” Lucifer cackled.

Lucifer nodded and went back into the shadows. Milton noticed a glimmer of light in the top corner of his box.

“I can see you Jester.” Milton chuckled as the said Jester walked towards him. “He’s back…” Courtly sighed.

“Yes, he’s looking for Nirvana.” Milton added. “Oh…” Courtly sighed.

Milton then hugged her. “M-Milton…” Courtly stuttered slightly.

“I did this...this is my fault...if it weren’t for my stupid mistake, you would’ve been okay.” Milton muttered. “Milton.” Courtly lifted up his face.

“Don't blame yourself. Please. I didn’t like it years ago, I don't like it now.” Courtly said, kissing Milton’s lips softly.

“But, years ago...It was so peaceful... the kingdoms...they weren’t divided. But now, Lucifer... Nirvana... Courtly, I’m so sorry…” Milton sobbed.

“Milton, please, stop blaming yourself. Please.” Courtly pleaded, kissing him again.

“But-” “Milton! Are you listening?! This was bound to happen. Don't worry.” Courtly planted butterfly kisses on his face.

“I love you, Milton.”

While Milton and Courtly were in the basement of the temple. The VK’s and Ben were upstairs enjoying the reception.

“So, I was thinking we try something new tonight.” Mal said to Ben. “Like what?” Ben asked.

“Well…” Jasper then appeared out of nowhere, right in the middle of them.

“You can tie each other up, eat stuff off each other, role play, toys, BDSM, three-way, you can do it in the shower, you can do it in a public place, fantasies, Mal could be then dominate while Ben is the submissive or vice versa, you can add a little danger, games, set the mood, sexting, dirty talk, hot candle wax, there’s tons of other ones but I don't think Ben would be up for it.” Jasper explained as everyone looked at him shocked.

“I don't think I’ve ever been turned on in my life.” Evie said, kissing Jasper. “Do you know all this?” CJ asked, a little afraid of the answer.

“I have my ways.” Jasper winked. “Leave it to the pervert to know all the sex stuff.” Carlos chuckled.

“Wait, that last one. What was that again?” Mal asked, intriguingly. “The candle wax?”

“Yeah that one. Hot, hot candle wax, just dripping down your skin...touching every part of your body.

“Sending an exciting spark thru your body, but even though it burns that’s what make it sexy and hot as hell.”

Mal stared intensively down at her glass, going into her own little fantasy world.

“You okay there Mal?” Ben asked, waving his hand in her face. “What? Oh yeah I’m good.” Mal said, her cheeks a little red.

“Why do you wanna try something new in the first place?” Evie asked.

“Well, we already have something old, the engagement ring. Something blue, the one blue crystal on my dress.”

“Now we need something new, hence why were trying to find something new to spice up our love life.” Mal explained.

“And I was telling her we don't need too.” Ben added. “When Mal and Caleb were dating they did all sorts of things.” Freddie smirked.

“Excuse me?” Ben asked seriously. “Yeah, at least that’s what Mal would tell us.” Hunter said.

“So, if you had to choose, which is better? When we do it or when you and Caleb used to?” Ben asked smugly.

“Honey, you know I love you. When me and Caleb did it, it was just hot, wild, passionate, animal sex.” Mal said as Ben sighed. “Is that supposed to make me feel better?” Ben asked growling a bit.

“But with you, it means something, there’s energy, passion, love, feelings. Your the love of my life Ben, so of course it’s better with you.” Mal assured him, wrapping her arms around his waist, trying to reassure her husband.

“Yeah, but with Caleb it’s just animal sex. With us it’s just regular doing it.” Ben pouted.

“Did you not hear what I just said? I love you, not Caleb.” Mal reminded him. “You’re my king Ben, so when I say I love you, believe me; I love you.”

“Tell you what, if you stop pouting, we can sneak off during the red moon dance and I’ll let you do one of the things on your list~” Mal cooed in his ear, immediately making Ben’s mood good again.

“Alright.” Ben smiled. “I think this now’s a good time as any to do my best man toast.” Jasper announced. “This I gotta see.” Mal laughed.

“So, I’m Jasper Damoola, Ben’s best man. Yeah Hunter, he picked me. HA!” Jasper boasted as Hunter rolled his eyes.

“Now, I’ve known Ben for a good 10 years now and I’ve never seen Ben as happy as he is with Mal.”

“The love they share is extremely rare, for the two of them to go thru so many obstacles just to get here is the most amazing this I’ve ever seen.”

“But, that wouldn't’ve never happened if it weren’t for an idea from me. See, it was quite obvious Ben had a crush on Mal when they first met, but since he was too chicken and cause he was dating Briar, Mal started dating Caleb.”

“So, I suggested that we kill Caleb, but Ben said that was “murder” and that “I can go to jail”.” Jasper did air quotes.

“It was and you still can go to jail.” Ben remind him.

“But then I suggested that we threaten Caleb into breaking up with Mal so when Mal was heartbroken and sobbing Ben could console her, they fall in love, ect, ect.”

“Oh no. Jasper, don't tell the story. Please don't tell the story, I just got married, I don't wanna get divorced.” Ben sighed.

“Oh I’m telling the story. Everything I’m about to say is true. Dead true.” Jasper chuckled.

“It all started one autumn saturday night.” Jasper narrated.

“Ughhh…” Ben’s groans were muffled by the couch pillow he was screaming into. Jasper sighed, standing at the doorway, looking down at the entire scene.

“For the gods sakes.” Jasper plopped down next to Ben and sighed again.

“Hey, happy camper, how’s it going?” Jasper asked sarcastically. “Shut up, snake boy.” Ben mumbled.

“Has he been like this all day?” Jasper asked Zeref.

“Sadly, yes. I’m this close to throwing him over the terrace.” Zeref threatened.

“My life is utter crap…” Ben groaned. “Your right.” Jasper agreed. “Thanks for the help.” Ben growled.

“Your girlfriend’s a lesbian. The girl you like is dating a wolf. And you still have no bride.” Jasper pointed out.

“Is this supposed to help him?” Carlos asked. “I’m getting to it. Ben, look at me.” Jasper said as Ben faced him.

“Close.” Jasper pulled Ben in close, their noses were touching.

“You just found out you’re an animalistic. Now I did research on animalistic and they have mates, just like wolves do. Mal might be your soulmate, heck even the woman you marry. Do you really wanna lose her to a wolf?”

“No, but she’s dating Caleb. I already lost, she’s Caleb’s now.” Ben sighed.

“Stop with the sighing! Your a fricken animalistic! You wanna lose her to Caleb?!” Jasper pushed Ben’s chest. “No.” Ben answered.

“Good, now, I have a plan.” Jasper got up and pulled down a projector. “Plan a: we kill him. You hook up with Mal at the funeral.” Jasper said.

“No, that's murder, your gonna go to prison.” Ben warned him.

Jasper sighed and flipped thru multiple slides before getting to the last one.

“Fine. Plan Z: We force Caleb into breaking up with Mal. When she’s heartbroken you console her and then you tell her how you feel. Bing-bang-boom, you get married, and I’m your best man.” Jasper explained.

“That actually might work.” Hunter smirked. “So, your ready to ambush a wolf den?” Jasper smirked.

“Wait what?”

“I’ll explain on the way.”

After walking for a while, the VK’s, and Ben, reached the near entrance of Caleb’s wolf den.

“Alright, so here’s what we’ll do. I’ll go in there and hijack the gate. Then we’ll throw Ben over-” “Or we can just walk in, the gates open.” Hunter said.

“Oh, never mind.” Jasper grumbled as the walked in. Ben could hear the faint sound of laughing.

“Caleb! Your packs gonna be back at sunrise, we’re gonna get in trouble if we get caught. Plus you could die.” One voice warned as the VK’s, and Ben walked closer.

“So, who cares, you’ve been gone an entire month. Do you have any idea how much I miss you?” Caleb rhetorically asked.

Ben and the VK’s hid in the trees as they got closer to the voices to see who they were coming from.

“Oh my gods...that’s Dracula's daughter, Didi! And Caleb!” Carlos whispered loudly.

“What about Mal? Won’t she find out?” Didi asked. “Nah, she doesn't know a thing.” Caleb winked.

“You have to stop risking everything, Caleb. You’re gonna get caught.” Didi warned him.

“You’re the one I’m risking it all for.” Caleb smirked as Didi cheeks turned pink. “You look adorable when you blush.”

Didi looked at the sky to see the sun was rising. “Do you have to go?” Caleb muttered. “Yes, if I don't the sun will burn off my skin and I’ll die.” Didi reminded him.

“Fine. Your coming back at sundown right?” Caleb asked as Didi kissed his cheek.

“Promise.” Didi smiled as she turned into a bat and flew away. “You can come out now you guys.” Caleb chuckled.

“So, dracula's daughter, huh? Ain’t that, I don't know, illegal?” Zeref asked.

“Yeah, but I love Didi, she makes me feel alive! Those 12 hours from sunrise and sunset are hell for me. Especially when she has to leave every time at sunrise!”

“Look you may not understand what it’s like to not be able to see the person you love for only ½ of the day. Everyday for eternity because she’s immortal.”

“I’m sorry…I didn’t know. But what about Mal?” Carlos asked. “I don't know, I love Didi, but I have no idea how to tell Mal.” Caleb sighed.

“Tell her you found somebody else. Will she be heartbroken? Yes. But I’ll promise you any money that she’ll find somebody better. I.E: Ben.” Hunter assured him.

“You like Mal?” Caleb asked. “Well...yeah...I didn’t say anything cause she looks so happy with you.” Ben sighed.

“Ben, you might not know this but she’s all you talk about. Like literally, last night before we went to bed.”

“She was ranting about you. Heck I think she even said your name multiple time when we’re doing it.”

“Really?” Ben asked. “Yeah.” Caleb nodded. “So what are you waiting for dude? You gonna get yourself a mate or what?” Caleb winked.

“Yeah.” Ben nodded.

~B~

“See Ben, that story wasn’t that bad.” Jasper smirked. “So wait, you knew me and Ben would get married even before we started dating?” Mal asked.

“Of course, I can sense it.” Jasper winked. “Right, move over snake boy. Time for my toast.” Evie smirked.

“Snake boy?” Jasper mouthed. “I didn’t mean it. Spur of the moment. You know I love you.” Evie quickly kissed Jasper.

“Anyways, my story is a good one.” Evie smirked.

“So, our VK’s friends have always asked up how we got the punishment of going to the crap fest of a school.”

“See, that night we devised the plan to steal Briar’s rose necklace and sell it on the black market, she was staying at the Rose/White estate in the mountains. And who decided to join them? Their boyfriends.”

“It all started a starry, cold, winter night.” Evie narrated.

“I’m so happy we’re going to the resort this weekend!” Briar cheered, snuggling up to Ben.

“So, how did you convince your parents to give you the key to the estate?” Ben asked.

“Mom thought it be good for me to check out my future estate. Seeing how it’ll be mine once we get married.” Briar explained.

“Only 1 more year.” Ben smiled, what he didn’t know was that Winter and Briar were playing footsie the entire time.

“E-Ev-Evi-Evie...I wi-will nev-never unde-understand ho-how yo-you talk me in-into hit-hitch a ri-ride on the top of th-the car!” Mal teeth chattered.

“If we were in the trunk they would have found us.” Evie said, filing her nails.

She was in a tank top and a skirt while Mal was bundled up in 4 jackets and still cold. “Ho-How ar-are yo-you not cold?!”

“Queens don't get cold. My house is in the mountains. This is like bikini weather.” Evie smiled, putting on a little lipstick.

“So, Last night when you were asleep you got a very shirtless pic from some person named Snake_King90.”

“Fun fact: That was actually Jasper’s V-Chat name. I didn’t know it was him till months later.”

“Wh-What?! Show me!” Evie grabbed her phone and looked at the picture, her face heating up. “He’s so hot!” Evie squealed.

“Sure honey, you got an internet crush on a model kid from the Desert part of the Villain Isles.” Mal laughed.

“So what! We’ve been talking for a year! I don't care what you say. I think he’s nice.” Evie smiled.

The car then drove past a tree, causing Evie to get smacked in the face by the tree branches, snow covering her face.

“Pfft! You look like frosty the snowman exploded in your face!” Mal laughed harder, soon getting hit in the face with a snowball.

“Karam's a cold hard bitch.” Evie chuckled.

“Wait, the car’s stopping.” Mal noticed as the car came to a stop in front of a large cabin in the mountains.

“Drink this.” Evie passed her a blue liquid, not before taking a sip of her own from the bottle. Mal took a sip, the two soon turning invisible.

“Benny-boo! Isn't this amazing!” Briar gushed, Mal groaned. “She makes my physically ill!” Mal gagged, Ben looked towards Mal’s direction.

“Um...Evie...can he see us?” Mal asked.

“That’s impossible! Only VK’s and Villains can see thru this position. Unless.”

Evie looked into Ben’s eyes, they were staring directly at what he could faintly see as an outline of Mal. “You okay Benny-Boo?” Briar asked.

“Yeah just meet me inside.” Ben quickly kissed Briar as her and Winter went inside. “Can you see us?” Mal whispered.

“Goddess Aphrodite?” Ben asked, reaching out to the faint outline Mal’s face. “Ap-Aphro-Aphrodite?!” Mal stammered.

“Who are you?” Ben asked. “She’s your future girlfriend.” Evie smirked as Mal glared at her.

“What? What happens to Briar?” Ben asked. “Don't worry.” Mal smiled, her lips coming closer to Ben’s. “Wh-What?” Ben stuttered.

“Shh~” Mal kissed Ben’s lips. “Get it girl.” Evie muttered. “Bye.” Mal winked as she went inside. Even though Ben couldn't see her face.

The kiss felt so real...like nothing he felt with Briar. Soon the potion wore off, luckily, Mal and Evie were on the roof, looking thru the sunroof down at the massive hot tub Briar and Ben were in. “Hot tub, huh?” Mal smirked.

“I could stay in here all day.” Briar snuggled up to Ben’s chest. “Ugh! They’re disgusting.” Mal groaned.

“Come on, they’re distracted, now’s the time to search the rooms.” Evie reminded her as her and Mal slowly climbed down the sunroof and towards one of the window.

Evie’s foot slipped, causing her to slide down the rooftop, she grabbed onto the storm gutters, preventing her from falling.

“You okay?” Mal asked. “Just peachy, Mal. Just peachy.” Evie scowled.

Evie looked thru the window to see Briar’s and Ben’s room. “Mal, I found the room.” Evie said as she took out her wand.

“Claractum!” Evie chanted as she trace a circle over the glass window, soon making a hole in the glass window.

Evie jumped thru the hole, landing in the room, Mal followed her lead. “For 3 days Briar did pack a lot of stuff.” Mal sweat dropped, looking at Briars 6 suitcases.

“Let’s start looking.” Evie smirked as she opened one of the suitcases to see it was filled with clothes. “Just clothes.” Evie sighed.

The two opened all the suitcases to see it was just makeup, clothes, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, ect.

“Where the hell is that necklace?” Mal asked, getting irritated. “I think I know where it is.” Evie pointed to Briar in the hot tub. “It was on her the entire time!” Mal growled.

“Okay, lower me down, I’m gonna see if I can get it off of her.” Mal tied one end of a rope around her waist and gave the other end to Evie.

“Ready?” Evie asked as Mal nodded. Evie lowered her down slowly, trying not to drop her.

“A little closer…” Mal muttered, getting closer. Mal reached out to Briar’s neck.

“You!” Winter scolded, getting Evie’s attention. “Shit.” Evie cursed. “Briar! Ben!” Winter called out, causing the two to turn around and see Mal and Evie.

Mal quickly grabbed the necklace and untied the rope before running towards the door. “Not this time!” Briar tackled Mal, tying her hands together with a zip-tie.

“Die bitch!” Evie yelled, forcing the poison apple down Winter throat. “This is what you get for leaving me in the woods filled with wolves!” Evie cackled, soon hearing the sound of police sirens.

“Evie! Come on!” Mal warned, kicking Briar off of her and cutting the zip-tie, before her and Evie ran out the house and broke into Winter’s car. The sirens were getting louder by the second.

“We need to go! Now!” Evie started up the car and quickly drove away.

Mal looked out the window to see the cops were on their tail. “Shit! Faster Evie.” Mal warned. “I’ll stall them.” Mal added as she stuck her head out the window and climbed to the roof of the car.

“Conjuim!” Mal chanted, a stream of fire emitting from her wand and attacking the police officers, only some of the cars got affected. There were still some left.

“Conjuim!” Mal chanted again, this time none of the cars got affected. “MAL!” Evie yelled. “Yeah?” “You might wanna hold onto something.” “Why?”
Evie pointed to the edge of a the cliff.

“We’re fucking screwed!!!”

“AAAHHH!!!”

The car drove over the cliff, landing into the cold lake. Evie and Mal resurfaced to see the cops waiting for them, pointing their guns at them.

“Evieanna Queen and Malena Maleficent, you're under arrest. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you can not afford one, one will be appointed to you by the courts.”

~B~

“And that’s how we got here.” Evie concluded. “Why didn’t you tell me that you were the invisible person who kissed me on the mountains?” Ben asked.

“I thought you wouldn't like me.” Mal rubbed the back of her neck nervously.

“That will never happen. I’ll always love you, Mal.”
