Everyone stilled, looking at Remy wide eyed as an amused smile played on his lips.

"Guys you can come out!" He yelled, making the others jump and immediately turn around at the sound of people coming out of the trees.

"How many times have we discussed this, we are not a pack!" One of the guys grumbled as he dusted himself off, stopping in front of the supposed alpha with his arms crossed.

He was tall and slim, dressed in all black and with what looked like a cloak wrapped around his shoulders.

"Oh come on bitch! It was to add a little spice, like a catchphrase or something! I mean did you see their faces when I said it? Hi-larious!" Remy said sassily, making the man roll his eyes with an exasperated sigh.

"You are incorrigible, Jeremy."

Roman's eyes widened when he noticed a small, yellow head come out from under the man's cloak, looking around before slithering to the ground and coming towards them.

The prince tried his best to get the others attention as he watched the snake change his path slightly and pointing towards Patton, but they were all too intent in listening in to the other two conversation.

"Oh, come on Janus you have to admit it was funny!"

The animal only comes to a stop once he finds itself in front of the cheery guy, raising his long yellow body so that he could be at his eye-level. The guy just stood still, looking at the daimon in awe, his eyes getting even wider and his smile getting bigger what it flicked his tongue out at him. Slowly, he reached out a hand to pet it, as the snake got slightly closer, almost hesitantly.

It was only then that Roman was finally able to find his voice and break out of the shocked trace he was in.

"Patton, no!" He yelled throwing himself between the snake and his friend, making the animal flinch and immediately hiss at him.

At the sound of his daimon hissing, Janus' head snapped towards him, wide eyed, before glaring almost right away when he spotted the prince reaching for his sword.

"Hey! Leave Diego alone! He didn't do anything wrong!" He exclaimed as he rushed to get to him, gently taking him into his arms.

"Didn't do anything wrong?! That snake was about to attack Patton!"

"Diego does not attack anyone. He is no way aggressive." The man gently petted the snakes head before shooting the cheery guy a concerned look as if wanting confirmation on what he was saying.

"He is right kiddo! The sna- er, Diego, was not about to attack me! I just wanted to pet him!" He tried to reassure the prince, putting a hand on his shoulders and gently pushing him away.

"Guess the Chicken Prince really didn't learn shit from what happened with us, uh?" Nyx said through the mind-link, making Virgil chuckle as she tried to diffuse the tension.

"Okay bitches, let's all calm the fuck down now. Janus stop sending murderous looks to the pretty prince, he's human and probably didn't know." Remy said almost letting himself fall to the ground near the fire and next to Roman, his hand gently petting Kiera's fur.

Virgil could feel jealousy rise up inside him, his fist clenching tightly trying to calm himself down as Nyx growled quietly hearing the nickname the guy gave to their soulmate and seeing the flirtatious looks he was sending his way. The prince blushed slightly, looking away to avoid the guy's eyes only serving to increase Virgil's jealousy.

Remy didn't seem to notice though as he just furrowed his eyebrows and looked around confused.

"Wait a second where is-" He started but he never got to finish the question, getting interrupted instead by a loud "BOO!" And Logan screaming at the top of his lungs.

Everyone quickly turned around, just to see that the prince's prime advisor had fallen to the ground, glasses askew, and was staring up at a man hanging upside-down from a tree who was laughing like a mad man.

"Found him!" Remy sighed, laughing slightly.

"Remus, get down from the tree and stop trying to give people a heart-attack."Janus' voice sounded tired, as if that was something that happened way too often, as he massaged the bridge of his nose.

"You're no fun Nagini!"

Logan got up and quickly took a step back as the new person jumped down from the branch, a big opossum following right after him and quickly running towards the nerd.

The prime advisor let out a small screech as the animal climbed on him, settling on his shoulder and nuzzling his neck, its tail gently wrapping around his shoulders.

"Brando and me like this one." He said giggling as he examined a wide eyed and blushing Logan.

"I-it's Brando and I." He stuttered, leaving everyone surprised and making Remus' head tilt slightly in curiosity.

"You should have said 'Brando and I' not 'Brando and me', that is grammatically incorrect." He explained making both Roman and Nyx roll their eyes.

"Oh, he is smart too!" Was the only thing that the weird man said before hugging the nerd tightly, making him tense slightly as he just laughed.

They all just stared at the two for a few more seconds, before Virgil finally decided to break the silence.

"So, Remy. You mentioned Kiera was your daimon." He started, catching everyone attention. The guy nodded, waiting for the dragon witch to continue. "What does that mean?"

"you really don't know?" He answered with an eyebrow raised, sighing and rolling his eyes slightly when he saw Virgil shake his head.

"Daimons are spirits tied to a human soul with the goal to make them stronger and protect them. The daimon could choose any animal, and can't be separated from their human with whom they usually share some kind of physical aspect." He explained gesturing towards his eyes, and the other two. It was only then that the dragon witch noticed that half of Janus' face was completely covered in pale green scales and one of his eyes was yellow and snake like. "And you, my friend, are the last of the strongest, rarest and most evolved types of daimon there are. Even though yours and your dragon's souls are tied, in fact, you can stay away from each other for longer periods of time, and her soul's presence doesn't affect your physical aspect in the slightest."

Virgil just stared at the man for a few seconds, eyes wide and lips slightly parted. He was not the only one. All his life he thought he was completely alone. But here he was, sitting around a fire with three other people who were exactly like him. He could feel his breath starting to become shallower as his mind tried to process all the overwhelming informations.

"Hey, deep breaths Virgie. You still have broken ribs and a panic attack wouldn't help." Nyx's voice said in his head, making him snap out of his anxious thoughts and aware of the pain in his chest. He smiled slightly towards his dragon; he didn't know when she put her head in his lap, but he was glad he did as he gently pet her.

After taking a couple of deep breaths and calming down a bit he could feel what once was confusion transform into frustration.

"You mean to tell me that for the last 24 years I lived alone in this forest thinking I was the only one when I could have been with you guys all along?! Where the hell have you been?"

He glared as he watched Remy roll his eyes.

"On a cruise in the Bahamas." He answered, his expression completely serious for a split second before breaking out into a mocking grin. "We were hiding bitch ,what did you think we were doing? Drinking a cosmopolitan on a warm exotic island?!" He laughed, leaning back on his hands and looking around, completely ignoring Virgil's annoyed looks.

"I don't like him." Nyx growled pushing slightly against Virgil as he just kept petting her, laughing slightly.

"He sounds just like you."

"Bitch no he doesn't!" She responded immediately, lifting her head slightly to shoot the dragon witch an offended glare as he just stared at her with an eyebrow raised and a small smirk. There were a few seconds of silence where they just stared at each other, before the dragon just rolled her eyes, realizing what she said.

"I hate you." She scoffed, putting her head back down and making him giggle.

It didn't take long though for the smile to disappear as he heard the conversation happening right behind him.

"So what's up cutie?" Remy said, leaning slightly towards a blushing prince, making Virgil frown as jealousy bubbled in his stomach. "How are you liking the woods? Found any damsel in distress in need of saving?"

The dragon witch clenched his fists and felt his jaw tense as he watched his soulmate blush a deep red. He could hear Nyx starting to growl too at the sight of the panther rubbing against the prince.

"Because I would gladly play the role if you didn't."

Remy leaned in even further, shooting Roman a flirtatious smile that was quickly cut short by Nyx growling loudly and pushing Kiera and her owner away, laying her head in the princes lap and flashing her teeth with a glare.

"Keep your cat under control, bitch." She growled taking control of Virgil's voice without any warning, making Remy's eyes widen and his skin pale slightly as he took a couple of steps back, his hands up in surrender. Even his panther didn't dare growl in response of the dragon and instead just hid behind her owner.

"Oh." He said almost in a breath, as he slowly relaxed his shoulder seeing as the dragon didn't attack. "I see. Well, babe you got lucky, your soulmate is hot as fuck. And a prince nonetheless." He chuckled nervously.

Roman's head immediately snapped towards a now paled and wide eyed Virgil, a shocked and confused look on his face.

"S-Soulmates?"
