DECISIONS

   July

        I had just had the luxury of know my wardrobe and getting use to the fact that I did have a queen size room, big enough with rich colors and a carpet so plush and deep , I love letting my bare feet sink into the softness. I mostly love the dead bear skin laying it the center, Lyca couldn't help but come out to roll on it, she even had that urge to get her own kill but this would have to do for now.

"In the prophecy we have the moon flower as mother, darkness as the demons and the Lycan demons as the imbalance"

"Don't forget we are hope and Fate and mother is also Peace"

Did I forget to mention that Cage and I were having a bonding moment in my room like teenage girls.

"Ugh where ever is Davis when you need him, how long does it take to find a seer witch"

"Very long Lissa, she has a reputation for being an invincible hag"

"Ugh!!! What else have we concluded"

"Oh! Do you mean from that really touching story from our dear brother Devaro, it's quite obvious that the demons have to go"

"I do wonder about something though"

"What is it?"

"What was the deal Alovia made with the demons, we know she desired to be ruler, she did kill her clan turning them to the mutated Lycan demons, then she tried killing mother and is now queen of werewolves. What do the demons get in return"

"What do you mean? Isn't it obvious since they get to live on earth and within the kingdom"

"Demons are never to be trusted and to make a deal with one comes with a heavy price"

"Maybe she sold out her soul"

Cage joked.

"Maybe.... Then there is Devaro, a subject of the corruption. Is he to be trusted?"

"He already said he wants the demons and his mother out and to rule rightfully and we did drink that vile yuck to seal the deal", he let out a shiver of disgust

"Aww still a baby about that, are we Micky".

I pout my lip while playfully flattering my eyes dramatically at him. Cage pushed me backward on the queen sized bed with force, I almost got lost in the soft feather duvets and many pillows.

I can't remember the last time I laughed freely like this, Lydia was always the source now I was becoming the source.

Cage was all grumble clearly not taking my joke well, he had just reached the door before sliding me a side glance.

"Em! Liz em? What's going on between you and that Lycan demon, I see the way he stares at you"

I choked,

"Who? Igaro? Nothing"

I brushed my hair back trying to smooth it and look as uninterested as I could despite my heart beating a mile.

Cage turned fully to look at me, his gaze was suspicious of course he had to be we were a King nothing should get pass us.

"It better be cause we can't afford anymore distractions"

His tone had more to it, and of course being twins it spiked my interest.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know I just feel a pull towards him, it's almost the same as how I felt about Molly"

I raise a brow at his red cheeks at the sudden mention of 'Molly'.

"Awe, is Micky missing Molly...."

I teased. Pouting my lip adorably while receiving an ugly glare in return.

"Am sure it's nothing, Cage"

Lies, the lie felt forced almost with the urge for protection.

(Don't you mean you lieing just to keep you title)

('Shut up)

"Yeah...",

His voice became thick with emotion, he looked home sick.

"It's alright, I miss them too especially Ly. I wonder how she's doing being Luna"

A smirk was fast to paint his lip along with a playful glint in his eyes.

"With a friend like you am sure she's doing great"

"Geez Thanks Cage, I feel so so honored"

"No problem sis. I better get going before Devaro get suspicious".

He left, leaving me to my thoughts.

"One chooses,

one selected,

a bite will settle it all".

          Who is the rightful ruler. Is it Devaro since he is first child but by rule I am next heir since am first twin of my mother, the true mate of father and then there's Cage, the male, werewolves would rather want ruling. Igaro is my mate and if am to accept him now he will be king but he's a demon and no one will accept him.

('No one or you won't)

(Whatever do you mean Lyca)

(Oh come on sweetie, we both know you will never let any one be on top you in power unless if it come down to sex)

(Ugh! you horny dog)

(Face the truth Mel, you are hope, you are the one who gets to choose. Hunky big bro already wants you queen)

(Heck! He wants me to be the demon's bride)'

(Na huh! He only suggested the plan of that Erasmus demon wanting you as his bribe not him giving you away)

('Even though)

I felt Lyca roll her eyes at my stubbornness.

(So Mel what's it going to be, who are you going to bite, is it sweet but annoying brother Micage or is it hunky big brother Devaro or maybe fuck me hard mate Igaro)

(Your intonations needs alot of working)

(Thanks but no thanks, I like it just the way it is unlike boring old you)

(Hey! I like the blood and gruesome time)

(Very creative, miss horror)

I chuckled, Only Lyca can take my sarcastic words and give it back with full force. Well she did teach me..

(So who is it going to be?)

!You forgot about Molly. what if she's Cage's mate)

('I already know you won't let that human be in something out of a horror fiction as this)

My silence gave her my answer.

(What is our decision going to be Melissa?).

MICAGE POV

Lissa is confused. I already knew she was hope after what Devaro suggested to her last night. I wasn't suppose to eavesdrop but Luca couldn't help it.

(Don't put the whole blame on me, you tramp)

I rolled my eyes at him, Observing the silence that fell on the hallway in Lissa floor , the enormous chandelier lighted my path down to my floor and into my room. A lot was wrong with this castle and a lot needed to be done.

There were maids who attained to our needs like bathing and feeding yet the hallway is always counting. Werewolves cook our food, the witches worked in the lab and the demons as guards , harmony yet individuality.

I headed to my room, the talk with Lissa has me calling home.

"Hello, Beta Martins speaking how may I help you?"

I draw back staring at the telephone to be sure I held the gadget right.

"Beta Martin? Well that has a nice touch to it don't you agree?"

A loud clash was overheard.

"Cage?? Fuck!! Cage, what the hell happened to you man?"

More noise could be heard, I felt my heart fill with love.

"Cage?? Fuck it's Cage, give me the damn phone Martin"

They were obviously fighting with the noise my sensitive ears could pick up.

"Just put the damn phone on loud speaker, morons"

Sometimes I wonder how they care for a whole pack of 2000 civilization.

"Cage!!! Man how's life in the castle, how's that sexy sister of yours?"

"How's the King? Is he as terrifying as the story states or is he really the puppet whose strings are controlled by his mother?"

They just had to bombard me with question at the same time.

(Stop acting all mighty you aren't far off their club)

Always the one with pure sarcasm, Luca.

"First off, eww that's my sister man and she's perfectly fine and second, dude we aren't kids anymore that should believe in any bedtime stories"

They ignored my taunting, moving on to keep me up to date. The way they spoke was like they weren't sure if we had enough time to speak, it was sad and made me more homesick.

"Man you won't believe this but Cole here finally found his mate"

My heart squeeze at this only one thought while my wolf voice out.

'Please don't let it be Molly'

"Wow you bad dog finally got hooked, please tell me who is it? Is it Molly?"

"Heck you won't believe who it is , I still can't believe that she got hooked up with this air head"

"Hey am your alpha not air head"

"Heh! Sorry Alpha"

"Cole who is she? Is it Molly? Come on tell me damn it"

They were silent, probably picking up on the fact that I had forced them to tell me with my powers.

(You just had to be so desperate', even Luca rolled his eyes with disapproval at me

"No man it isn't Molly, but Veronica Smith, she is err was.... You know what you just have to see her)

"And guess what man she's was a rogue and not any type of rogue but an assassin like your sister but from lower pack but still damn!!! assassin chick are super hot... Ouch!! Man"

"She's my mate, you moron"

        Their argument was lost to me. Luca was busy letting howl of relief even though he had reprimanded me for being forceful, he had a longing to see that petty figure with enchanting hazel eyes and white blonde hair, We miss her wits.

"Hey Cage? Cage you there?"

I revolted back to the present and not my daydream of how sexy Molly would look naked under me.

"Yeah man am still here"

I had to clear the huskiness in my throat before they catch on.

"Well thank the moon I thought the witch queen or the Puppet King had you taken away again"

The Puppet King was what we had called Devaro when we were young then we heard about his mother's sins and how he was the next heir, we become really convinced that he was a puppet king for not doing anything but let the witch queen rule when it was suppose to be his rein.

I think Cole had once called him a man without balls. But if only he knew the truth now.

And it was the confirmation I needed for my suspicion.

"Its not like that Cole. He's on our side, a lot has happen and even with everything he's still our brother".

A phone call about our plan or what had been going on surely wouldn't be wise, I knew this which was why I let the rest of my words hang on thin air.

"Well that's interesting.... ", Cole dragged out, the uncertainty was clear and reasonable. I had to change the topic before I reveal more.

"How's my mother?"

"Well Emily is just fine, doing great in fact Molly has been helping keep her company ever since you left"

Again I blank out at the mention of her name.

"I still got your car packed here , I know you are king and all but still am giving it to you, a promise is a promise. Cage? Hey Cage you there?"

"Yeah yeah I am, okay fine I'll accept your gift"

"What's on your mind, Man?"

"Nothing... Hey how's Molly doing? How did she take the whole you having a girlfriend thing and moving on, you know you were crazy about her"

"Blue balls crazy about her"

Martin hackled in the background

"Oh fuck off you two, I know exactly how crazy I was about her but I've got Vera now but still my wolf feels that thing for her almost like the connection I have for you"

"Wow Cole I never knew you had a thing for men, gosh I feel so molested"

Martin mocked. A loud smack was heard.

And by connection he meant that pull to follow, a dieing need to show allegiance to me. I later found out it was because I was a King and his wolf was just following instinct well all other wolves but him being Alpha made up for that.

"So Cage when are you going to tell Molly about how you feel or not, why don't you just see her and find out if she's your mate or not. I know Lycans mate differently from werewolves but still the pull is the same"

"Wow you've been studying about Lycans?"

Martin was as shocked as I am.

"I have to, since one of my best friend is King , I have to be more up to date to prove myself worthy to him"

Was Cole already starting to act reasonable?.

"That is the most sensible thing you have ever said even though you are two years older than me"

"Yeah well give the credit to Vera"

"I seriously can't wait to meet her"

"Yeah well back to the main question, what are your feelings towards Molly?"

"I don't what you are trying to get at, but Molly and I are just friends period"

"Shut up Cage, I've known you since you could talk and I've watching you to know you have a crush in her, like how you always look at Molly especially that time we played Romeo and Juliet, you were Romeo and she was Juliet, or that time you both dressed up as Goldilocks and baby bear even though you hated each other guts or that time you played Robin hood and she was princess Fiona or that time...."

"Alright I get it I might have had an infatuation on Molly but you always beat me to her"

"Yeah well but still she always chooses you, even though she never said it out loud I can read it on her especially when she looks at you without you knowing".

"Since when were you ever a live guru", I jested.

"Since ever, gosh!! am disappointed in you guys no wonder only Lydia saw it"

I roll my eyes at his childishness still wondering why he was senior or even Alpha when he was still immature.

"I get it okay there might be a possibility that Molly could be my mate but you and I both know that I can't bring her into this madness, so just do me a favour okay look after her for me and keep any male dirty paws off her or else"

"Wow you sound just like you sister"

"My sister?, what does Lissa have to do with this?"

I blinked knowing well he couldn't see me but he surely heard the shock in my voice and shocking he sounded calm as if he knew something I didn't.

"Ohhh!!! It's Lissa now"

Martin cooed in the background. Cole ignored  him and continued.

"Well she did threatened to cut off our balls if we made a move on her and she made sure we agreed to keep an eye on her"

!Wow Lyca knows and didn't tell us and as always she one step ahead of us)

I gritted my teeth in annoyance so much for at least embracing the idea that she might be my mate knowing Lissa she would never want a human in this family madness especially Molly whom she's fond of.

"It's obvious Molly is your mate if your sister is this possessive of her",

He finally let out what he knew and what I was trying hard to hide.

"So we have another queen in our midst" Martin praised.

A smack was heard,

"Shut the fuck up Martin"

"Ouch! But she has to know about us sooner or later and mostly you man"

They were words I knew very well but still didn't want to acknowledge it.

"I know but we have to keep Molly in the dark a little longer, keep her away from me until all this goes out"

"Alright your Majesty whatever you say goes"

All was silent, I could almost hear the judgmental voice he used to say it and the fact that he had other thing to say too but held back. What am I saying I could hear them perfectly fine. I guess that yucky stuff do work.

"And Cole, congrats Man and I miss you"

"Don't go all girly on me Cage am straight as fuck... I miss you too man"

"Yeah I feel your love right here Cage"

Martin murmurs sarcastic , making choking noise"

"Talk to you later man and good luck".

I release a huge breath feeling lively and more of myself after that phone call, the dullness of this castle was almost getting to me.

'Sigh'

Maybe laying down for a little bit before training will help.

(Good night Cagie, I love you)

My eyes widen at my wolf's sarcastic words.

(Em! Luca? You alright buddy)

('Just peachy)

      Sometimes Luca amaze me and sometimes he leaves me dumbfounded, I just love him for that.

'The feeling is mutual dude, so what's our decision going to be about Molly? Do we talk to Lyca about it or tell crazy big brother?'

('You already know our decision, Luca)

I close my eyes at the silence that came next.

DEVARO POV

I have them where I want them to be it almost seem so surreal or even too easy. Igaro has been a great help keeping an eye in them and keeping me informed.

('Family)

Even Lyrick has attain an humor filled attitude.

"How are my siblings faring, my pet?"

The throne room has now become my favorite place to relax and bathe upon my power, with them on my side my plan is sure to surely succeed.

"Your highness, They have both adjusted to the way of life here although Prince Micage do make changes here and there"

I could only smile at that. My little brother had so much to learn, there was so much I had to teach him and spoil him since he's last child.

"Let him do as he wants"

"Princess Melissa had requested to train with the demons along with Prince Micage and if your highness is available she requested to train with you also"

Everything was going as I wanted, my dreams are slowly becoming reality.

"Inform my little sister that I will be delighted to join"

I may be a silver tongue snake, I will gladly take that title over the Puppet King.
