Chapter 45: Welcome to Kingdom of Arcadia (part 2)
This is it! Today is the day.
Winter remind us that we should gathered up after the sun sets. I already packed my things up and said my farewell to Peter who almost jumped because of excitement for our trip and had this giggly expression on his face. He kept on teasing me while I walked away with Shaun on my side. He looks like a mom who's getting excited for her daughter's first date.That kind of thing. I can't do anything but laugh.
My heart swelled with unexplainable excitement and fear as I pulled my luggage with me. Every step that I took felt so frightening and exciting. It feels like there's a whole band inside of me, playing some rock and roll songs. With a little blues on the side.After running away five years ago, this is the first time I will be setting a foot outside the place who gave me the chance to live again after series of heartbreaks and rejections. The town I have already considered as my home.SomehowRelated chapters
Through Love and Instinct Chapter 46: Tyler
"My lord, it's time," my servant said, handing me a bow and an arrow.I gently put the arrow on the bow and pulled the strings hard until I can't pulled it anymore. I took a deep breath and calm myself as I focus in the target in front of me. One wrong move could threaten it and it would run away as fast as it can. I need to be careful and quiet.I steady my arms and calm my nerves. For one last time, I took a deep breath and release the arrow on my bow.I could hear the whimper of the poor animal as my arrow pierce into it deeply. Its blood spilling everywhere it looks like some kind of cruel and bloody battle field. My mouth slowly moves upwards as I looked at the distance dead animal.I gave my bow and arrow to my servant and walked towards the moose deer as I kneel down, pressing the dead animal."This would be enough for the incoming feast." I muttered and picked up the moose deer, putting it on my shoulder.

Cloud nine. That's where Shaun's soul and heart is. He feels like he is floating as soon as he was the people welcoming them in the kingdom of Arcadia.He never felt so overjoyed yet so calm at relax before. He never felt so at home, welcomed and accepted. It was like a dream come true. A hopeful and impossible dream he has been dreaming all these years. Knowing that there are dozens of people who wouldn't get scared of him even if he change into his beast form.That despite all the odds turning against him, despite all his flaws and impurity, there are people who would stay with him no matter what happen.In that moment he knew, he belong to this place. No one would run at the sight of his tail, claws and fangs.No one would curse him to death. And no eyes would look at him as if he was some kind of an evil monster, who would only want to hurt everyone around him. No one would ever think of him differently.It was totally a
Through Love and Instinct Chapter 48: Awakening
"Like what I have said a while ago, I am the only son of the current king Veto Edromyth, Tyler. I'm please to meet all of you." Tyler said, slightly bowing his head to everyone in the hall."The kingdom of Arcadia is overjoyed to have you back in this land, in here. The kingdom, where you really belong to. And to see you well, healthy and..." he paused and smirked when he saw Austin hand in hand with Shaun. "well, happy. On behalf of all the missing paladins and members of the Executives, we welcome you to the Kingdom. Welcome Prince Shaun, lady Austin, Justin and Grey." he said and gracefully walked towards the table where Shaun and Austin have seated. Shaun's face darken as he squeezed Austin's hand tightly beside him. Tyler has this silly smile plastered on his face as he leaned towards them. "You should introduce yourself properly to everyone in here. They have been waiting to have even just a glance of the much awaited prince. Maybe you could do this litt
Through Love and Instinct Chapter 49: The Prophecy
"Tell me, what's really going on? Something is really off about everything." Justin said, looking at me so seriously directly in my eyes. I felt my heart racing and I don't know the reason why. But the way she's looking at me, it was as if she is diving deeper into my soul, uncovering the secrets of it, including the most purest and darkest one. I subconsciously gulped. I could feel my body tensing up and I don't want her to notice even a bit of my nervousness. That's not cool and it's not me. "I mean, you guys being lycanthropes, this kingdom, Shaun's true identity. Everything. I need to know everything. What the heck is really going on, Grey?" she said.I looked at her jet black eyes as she crossed her arms, standing in front of me still. I never had imagine myself in this kind of situation. Someone confronting me about these things. I've never prepare myself to talk about those sad things that are eventually bound to happen. But I know I would. And
Through Love and Instinct Chapter 50: Lupus Dimetricus
"Lupus, why are you still here? The other paladins and member of the Executives are already in the hall, talking to the prince. Even Silver is already there," I heard Rebecca's voice behind me. I turned around and looked at her. She's wearing a long navy-blue silk gown. It was guarded by a powerful magic spell, making it sturdy but light to move. She's always on the top of everything, huh? Always ready for the worst. "That I know. Even Hamlet is there, right?“ I said smiling to her. "I'm actually impressed to that man. Even though he hates the idea of the prince coming here in the kingdom, he's still acting so civil, especially when the King and Prince Tyler is around." I said, fixing my clothes. "You know the man, Lupus. He's like a loyal dog, servant only to his master." Rebecca said in her low voice as if she was whispering to me. "The man love to suck up to his master, willing to do anything as long as the king orders him too."I smiled. A lo
Through Love and Instinct Chapter 51: Orion or Arcadia?
"What do you think of Arcadia, Shaun? We've been here for days. You've met so many people.. I mean lycanthropes like yourself. How does it make you feel?" Austin said as she wrapped her arms around mine.She looked at me with her calm brown eyes as she smiled to me as if she's telling me, that whatever I would do from this moment, she would support me with all her might."What do you mean? Of course it does made me so happy." I bluntly said. Austin smiled and shakes her head. "Do you like it here? I mean living here? Spending the rest of your life here in Arcadia?" I paused. That had me thinking. Do I like it here to the point of living here in Arcadia? Does my heart really belong here where the others of our kind live? Can I live here, leaving the only place that made me feel so safe all these years? Can I really left Orion just to live here in Arcadia?I've lived in Orion for years. I've made so many friends and created so many me
Through Love and Instinct Chapter 52: Reunion
One thing is for sure. Everyone around me since I was a child, including Loki and Priam kept something from me.Priam, not even once talked about who my parents was or if they are even alive. He raised me like I am his own, but he never did told me that I am his child. And I like that about him.He never really kept it a secret. He would bluntly tell me that I am not his child, just like that. But, whenever I would asked him who my parents was, Priam would only shut me up by saying, "You're parents are an amazing pair of people." And after that, he would just shrugged his shoulders and would pretend that he didn't heard anything. And up until now, I have no idea who the fuck my parents are. It was as if I existed in this world without a father and a mother. I thought coming back here, in Hellas would finally give me a chance or would open up an opportunity to know or discover even just a little bit about my damn parents. Who are they, where are
Through Love and Instinct Chapter 53: Shaun, Son of Lycaon
After bluntly blurting out that Shaun is the only child of the former king, Lycaon, Priam dragged him along with Winter, Loki and Austin into a chamber deep within the palace where no one has ever been.It was a chamber in the old building of the palace where the late King Lycaon spend almost all his free time when he was still alive. It was the nearest building to the forest of Lycto. And it was located right at the middle of the main building and the very forest. "P-Priam! You need to explain everything to me first!" Shaun shouted but he did not received any reply from Priam, who only continued on pulling him."Where the hell are you dragging me without explaining a damn thing after telling me that kind of thing!?" Shaun exclaimed, pulling Priam's arms hoping to stop the latter from dragging him into an unknown place. But Priam is so damn strong. Even after exerting so much effort in stopping him, Shaun didn't even managed to make him stop. Pr
