8-Meeting Cleopatra's Father

Issan stands and walks toward Alex and says "Tell him we are coming now let's move I would like to do this while the sun is high and My Sweet Cleo is not sleepy or hungry and not moody." Alex bows his head and does as he is told. Celine was listening and waits for them to leave the Thrown room and says "Sir please let me come with you I do not want to have Cleopatra out there with not enough protection please let me come." Cleopatra responds "Of course Celine I also want Marv to come as well the prisoners in the dungeon can be watched by Max till we get back." Max bows his head and says "Yes My Queen." turns and walks off. Issan looks at Cleopatra and asks "Max why him and how did you know who he was?" Cleopatra taps her ear and says "Amazing hearing not only that but he's just like me and Alex as are a few more here in the castle. Unlike others that worry about you being with me Max is more worried about me with you. He said those words to Alex not sure what he means but I think he's worried you will hurt me. That's what I feel from him anyways." As they walk out and walk to the room to get ready to leave Issan says "Max is full blooded like you ok so that makes sense why he watches me closely when I start to loss my temper." They get to the room and get ready and head back to the door. Marv, Alex and Celine are waiting for them at the door. They walk out the door Issan says "We will be waiting at the wall I will be using my power to get us to the wall faster." and Marv, Alex and Celine bow there heads and they take off in a run for the wall. Issan and Cleopatra are the first to the wall while he is talking to the guards at the drawbridge Celine is the first to arrive followed by Alex then Marv. Issan says to the guard "We are going to be out in the woods so watch for us to return we are taking a nice little walk also what we are doing is none of anyone's concern so no need to watch us. Also no one is to enter or exit the Kingdom till our return." The guard bows his head and they drop the drawbridge.

They leave the Kingdom and they lift the drawbridge as they make it to the other side. From the wall to the edge of the woods is 100 feet walk as they make it in to the woods they walk another 50 feet and Alex jesters for them to stop and Marv and Celine step in front of Issan and Cleopatra. Alex kneels down left knee on the grown and right fist on the ground as well he stays like that for a moment then a man walks out from behind some shrubbery and says "You brought more people than I was expecting 3 half breeds does your master want you to bring me in." Alex still in the bowing position says "No my master wanted to speak with you and I didn't bring 3 half breeds it's 2 half breeds and 2 full breeds."

The man scuffs and says "I'm the Grand King of Brenos and you lie to me I smell 3 half breeds there is only 4 that I smell the female and male half breed are standing in front of the 4th smell so don't lie to me." The Grand King growls a low and threatening growl. Issan speaks up as the 3 of them whimper "He is not lying to you Celine, Marv step aside." they do as commanded "See their protecting their King and Queen." Issan walks forward holding Cleopatra tight to his body as she is nestled like she does. Issan has his power at the ready Incase he needs to get them out of fight. The Grand King looks at the little girl that Issan is holding and drops to his knees and says "Cleopatra." Tears roll down his face this whole time thinking she was dead like her mother his Queen. Issan walks towards him and kneels down to him to sit and says "My Sweet Cleo, Say hi to your father." He looks at her and she smiles and says "Hi you can call me Cleopatra and your name is not father what is your name. Mommy's name was Sophia." He looks at her shocked at how far she has advanced without a hierarchy. Then it hit him as he looks at Issan and growls a threatening growl. Cleopatra slaps him and say "No bad you will not treat My Issan like that." Issan pulls her back close and stands up and backs away. The Grand King stands as well as he has 4 scratches on his face. Alex as now moved and is in front of them The Grand King starts to laugh and says "Man your just like your mother not afraid to fight for what is right and yours. My name My Fiery Daughter is Calb." As he continues to laugh and then says "May I please hold her don't worry I won't take off with her it could and possibly kill her since she has chosen you as her hierarchy and she is not old enough to be away from you for to long or far for that matter." Calb holds out his hands at Cleopatra she looks to Issan and he says "Only if you want to My Sweet Cleo." She hugs him and nestles and bays and then reaches out for him to take her. Calb steps forward as does Issan and he holds his daughter for the first time and says with tears in his eyes and choking up trying not to cry "God you look like your mother it's scary plus you have her attitude to boot wish I could spend more time with you. When you get older please come find me I will teach you to really hunt." He looks at Issan and says "Don't make her to lazy at least let her hunt little prey in an inclosed space Alex you will teach her the beginners but when she gets bigger I want to teach her the rest."

Calb takes one more good look at her and smell of her and hands her back to Issan. Issan hands Cleopatra to Celine and walks up to Calb Cleopatra starts to whimper Issan pulls out a crest. The crest was silver and in the shape of a cloud and it had one of the most feared beast on it the Loragarwol. As Issan hands to Calb he says "This was given to me from Malloy when I got Cleopatra from him I figured it was her mother's but then seeing it on you I see it is your crest." Issan turns and walks back to Cleopatra to take her. Calb clears his throat and says "No this belongs to Cleo now seeing how," Cleopatra interrupts yelling "IT'S CLEOPATRA!!!" She reaches for Issan who has stopped as soon as he grabs her she says "Only My Issan can call me Cleo." She nestles and bays. Calb starts laughing and walking to them and hands it to Cleopatra "Cleopatra this is yours by birth right wear it proud it's the symbol of your bloodline. Wear it all the time and any and all Brenos full blooded or half will know that you are The Grand High Queen of Brenos race. Alex will teach you everything you need to know about who you are and what your bloodline means. Also what it means to be The Grand High Queen my Fiery daughter. So keep it close and keep it in plan sight unless Issan tells you to hide it."

'side note the Loragarwol is kind of a werewolf/bear/loin/dragon looking. yes it flys.end of side note.'

Calb takes a step back and Issan says "For your information I will never tell My Sweet Cleo to ever hide who she is if people have a problem." Issan warms up and Cleopatra looks at him worried but not showing it. Then 5 trees not even touching or near each other in a circle around them bursted into blue then white flames and burned to ash in a matter of seconds. Issan smiles and says "They will have to answer to me and I might just burn them alive just like the girl this morning when she dared to insult My Sweet Cleo." Calb was shocked he has never seen a Cravous with this much power before and he asks "May I ask who is your mother?" Issan looks at him puzzled why is he asking about his mother and not his father. Calb smiles when he sees the face he's making and says "Leiareera is your mother's name isn't it?" Issan couldn't believe that he knew his mother's name. Calb just kept smiling and says "Your mother is the most beautiful woman I have ever laid my eyes on. It was a sham that she chose your father she could have had me but she loves your father there is nothing between us other than friendship and her fascination with the Brenos and my infatuation for her."

Issan says "You knew my mother?" Calb says "Know your mother yes I know her." Issan says "No I used the right word knew my mother is dead." Calb looked confused and says "Your mother is not dead who told you that?" Issan was starting to get up set for along time now hes known his mother to be dead now this Brenos is saying she's not. Issan says "My father says my mother is dead I wasn't aloud to see her one because I was so young and two her body was so mangled from the attack they said you almost couldn't tell it was her." Calb growled hearing this how could she be dead and him not know he would know he says "Look I know she's not dead I would feel it if she was I bonded with her not in a mate way I sort of trick her to do a pack bond so that I would know if she was hurt or dead I felt it when she got pregnant with you and when she had you I would have known if she died. She was everything to me I loved her still love her she never loved me but still." Issan asks "How did you do that with her if you didn't not mate with her?" Calb laugh and says "I fed her my blood and I did the same to her it will stay in her forever as it will stay in me forever. You should do the same with Cleopatra and once you mate and the bond gets stronger over the years of mating you will be able to do more than know of ones pain. You will be able to see and hear what the other is doing even if you are leagues away from each other." Calb looks at Marv, Alex and Celine and says "Now I'm trusting the 3 of you to make sure that there bond becomes inseparable." Calb turns to leave and stops and says "One more thing Issan if you don't stop feeding her red meat she will be an adult with in months when I was holding her I could feel it she is aging quickly. She is at least 12 in her mind and body she is 6 almost 7 expect a growth spurt by tomorrow or the next day. As she grows so will your attachment to her and hers to you. It may at first worry you about her age but it shouldn't. I must go and you must get back it late it's after lunch she also only need 1-2 meals a day by the way unless you want her to grow fast. I will check back in 4 months how's that sound."

Issan nods his head and says "Thank you for letting us know that." Calb says "Alex should have already know all that information if he didn't tell you then he was hoping she would grow fast and your bonding would be unstoppable so you couldn't get rid of her without hurting yourself in the process." Calb turns and leaves as fast as he showed up. Issan turns to Alex as Alex is just standing there not even worried or fazed by the information that was said. Issan asks "Did you know that Alex?" Alex just says "Yes I did and all that he said was truth I will not lie." Issan was angry Cleopatra touched Issan face and asks "Shall we bond let's do this?" Issan looks at her as she waves them on. Issan says "My greatest fear is for anything to happen to you when I'm not around. Are you sure you want to do this with me?" Cleopatra just looks at him and says "What do we do and do you want too?" No more than she asks that does Issan sits down and puts her in his lap and pulls out a knife and cuts his hand and says "Here drink My Sweet Cleo intake my blood and let us bond not mate but bond yet your to young for that. I refuse to be without you ever in my life now that I have you."

Cleopatra takes his hand and proceeds to do as Issan says. As she is licking and in taking his blood she starts to grunt and groan and Issan lets out one as well. Out of no where Cleopatra gets up and moves away from Issan and he looks at her not knowing what happened. Cleopatra looks and point to his lap and says "Something poked me and I thought maybe something was trying to get Issan and me." Issan smiles shyly and gets up and adjusts himself and says "Sorry My Sweet Cleo," he picks her up "Your Issan is a bad sick-o who didn't mean to scare you." Worried what the 3 of them thought he turns to them to see they were gone. Cleopatra asks "Now it's Issan's turn to drink my blood?" Issan nods his head and he does the same to Cleopatra as he holds her to his side and he starts to drink she proceeds to move her hips and grunts. As he finishes he goes to cover her hand and it's already healing and almost done.

He uses his power to catch up to them and lands in front of them says "What was that why did you leave are you crazy to leave us like that?" Alex smiles and says "We know what bonding means even a small one like that it's not polite to watch." Celine says "Not only that but we figured that it would be really embarrassing for you if we were still there when your little friend popped up to say hi to his mate." The 2 of them started to laugh alittle Issan frustrated turned and started walking. Marv trying to calm him says "We were still close enough to do something if you get in danger and we just wanted to give you privacy." Issan just kept walking back to the wall. As they came to the clearing Cleopatra asks "Who's that?" Issan shrugs his shoulders and says "Don't know can't really see them guess we will find out when we get closer." As they get closer Issan sees the mark on the carriage and knows who they are and he mutters "Great the pest from the summit." Cleopatra looks at him as he passes her to Celine and steps forward Celine moves back behind Marv and Alex. The drawbridge drops and the carriage door opens and one of the men inside step out.
