In all honesty, the rest of the night was fun. After I introduced everyone, who thankfully already were briefed on the circumstances, My father didn't contribute a whole lot of conversation, he was just observing, and if roles were reversed I would have stayed quiet too. He did talk here and there though, not enough for me to learn much about him. Nonetheless, I felt lighter having him there. I guess I didn't realize I expected him to be nothing short of a monster. I had just shown Sophie and my father to their rooms, and now Roman and I were walking up to ours.
"So today was certainly...a day" he says"Today was the equivalent of 4 days" I sigh"How are you doing, feeling?" he says, taking my hand in his and kissing my knuckles, I smiled despite what was about to come out of my mouth"I think I'm just trying to process it. It's not like it was a shock that he showed up, I'm just surprised that I was so emotional over it, you know? I didn't really expect to feelRelated chapters

We take our table numbers and I lead him outside to a more secluded area. I don't plan to hide what I am from the pack, but I'd rather not start rumors before Roman and I can even announce it. Although, I'm marked by their Alpha, so I can sense the confusion when they feel that power radiating off me, mixed with their Alpha's scent. Well, I guess that cat's out of the bag."So Seth is your only living family?" my dad says as we sit down"Yes, that I know of anyways. Both my parents died in a vampire attack, and their parents died before that. Both were only children. Do you have any family in the underworld? Did you take another mate after my mother?""I had two children prior to meeting your mother. You have a sister and a brother, your sister is my heir to the throne. As for family, my mother is still alive, and I have 4 siblings, you likely won't meet them. And no, I haven't and don't plan to take another mate. I have my heir, and your mother was the only queen my

"I don't believe you" I said to my dad, sadly "I have a feeling we're underestimating the vampires. I don't know anything at all about angels. But I just have a horrible feeling about the vampires" I tell him, looking down at my coffee and trying to find comfort in the aroma it gave off, but not even that beautiful smell could ease my anxiety. He visibly stiffened, and that made me feel even worse."I believe you" he said, grabbing my hand before continuing "one of your gifts is intuition. We will take their threat seriously""How do you know that?" I ask him, I knew he had the last 20 years to prepare for this, but my mom said nothing was known of my powers"I resummoned Deumos a couple years ago. After years of researching myself, and the elders, to no avail, I swallowed my pride. It seems she has her own agenda, that or she's just bored, because she fully prepared me for everything you would be. I did considerable research on the tribrid, the elders did as w

When we get home from the cafe, I let my father wander off around the perimeter and I find Sophie, Violet, Blue, Gemma, Cici, and Serena in the dining room, eating a lunch of their own. I walk up to them and snag a scone out of Sophie's hand. She yells in protest at me, but quickly grabs another one. I sat down in the chair next to her, munching on my stolen pastry."Whatcha guys doin?" I say"We were just about to go walk the trail around the lake, do you want to come? I told Sophie how pretty it was" Cece says sweetly"Yeah, I don't think I've been there yet! Let me go find Roman though, I haven't seen him all morning. Can you guys wait like 20 minutes?" I ask, suddenly really missing Roman, I was too distracted to miss him earlier but now that I'm not preoccupied, I just want to curl up in his arms and never leave. Ugh, this damn mating bond has me ungoddessly clingy."Of course, we all need to change clothes, anyways. Meet us on the benches by the training gr

"This is a power I've wielded several times before, take a second and look at him, let the tether to your magic loosen, and then will it to surround him with protection" my father says as I stare at Seth, trying to put a shield around him to let him into the Underworld.I do as he says, and when my power reaches Seth, I see him stiffen for a second, but relax as it surrounds him entirely. I can actually see it around him, like a light haze. I smile, completely unrestrained as I realize it worked! My eyes dart to Roman's for a beat, noticing the pride and softness in his gaze.'I love that smile on you' he says through the link and I look away, I'm probably blushing like a freaking preteen"Good. Now do that to everyone else here, with the exception of your mate" my father says"Maybe try and look a little less like you're constipated this time though." Seth teases me, I shoot him a glare and he yelps. I jump, not expecting that. "Goddess, Amara. Are you go

I brush off her comment about earth, but she thinks this is hot? Werewolves definitely run hot, but this would be considered comfortable weather for us. I shake my head and blow out a breath as Roman starts to walk over to her and my father, pulling me along with him. I then see a small outdoor table next to the pond, nestled behind a couple trees. The trees at least looked similar to what I was used to. A little taller and wider, with darker shades, but still obviously trees. We all take our seats, Aylin at the head, me next to her, my father opposite of me, and Roman next to me. No one says anything as a couple servants sit a pitcher in the middle of us. Aylin is the first to reach for it, pouring her own glass and saying thank you to the servant who bows before walking away. The same silver-y liquid fills her cup and she passes the pitcher to me."So, this is your mate I take it?" Aylin says eyeing Roman"Yes, this is my mate, Roman, he's Alpha of Ivory Moon pack back h

The rest of lunch was nowhere near as intense. We made small talk, my father mostly asking about Roman's upbringing and childhood, how he runs his pack, his family...and really just all details about his life. Nosy bastard my father was, but it still warmed my heart nonetheless that he was so interested. He was growing on me, I suppose. I had asked about Azrael, to which Aylin said he likes to spend time in town. She had said it was important for the royal family to be involved with town life, and Azrael took it upon himself most of the time. Afterwards, Aylin showed us to our rooms and told us to meet her back in the throne room in 15 minutes and she would show us to the training arena. That was 10 minutes ago.I was unpacking my clothes and changing into my training attire-just a sports bra and high rise yoga pants that went to my knees, when Roman came up behind me and pulled my back to his chest. One of his hands went to my throat and the other circled my stomach right above the

We trained for a good 3 hours, mostly just perfecting my aim with magic and quickening my movements with it. I had a few moments of doing something I didn't know I could do, one of them being that I accidentally took away Aylin's sight and hearing. It took me a couple minutes to figure out how to give them back to her, at which point she magically threw me across the field and threatened to rip out my esophagus if I ever did that to her again. I had wanted to go watch my dad kick Roman's ass but I was too caught up with my own training.Aylin was a badass, it seemed like she was trained in everything-hand to hand, magic, and she was a boss ass bitch with her dagger. I practically begged her to train me with a dagger and twin blades. I did get the upper hand on her once or twice, but both times she managed to get her dagger and held it to wherever she would have stabbed me. I guess I should be proud that she has over 250 years of experience on me and I held my own.The two of us plus

The next morning, the rest of the gang is finally awake enough to join us for breakfast. I'm buzzing with excitement. My father will start off with magic training, and then I'll be with Aylin for physical training. Azrael wanted to spar with all the guys, so they won't be bugging me during training. After that, I plan to explore around here with the girls. I tried to convince Aylin to come with, and after the third "absolutely fucking not" she reached for her dagger and I portaled behind Roman. He had the good sense to stay quiet, but he stiffened, and I swear to Selene I saw him pale slightly.The girls, unable to hide their blatant curiosity, decide to tag along with me to the training grounds. As I'm sitting on one of the chairs while Azrael shows everyone else around, Aylin comes and sits next to me. She places two wooden boxes in my lap."These are for you. I had the blacksmith make them." is all she says to me as I look up at her.I look back at the two boxes, the one is long
