2: Aftermath

"You have a big tummy Mister." Arthur looks up at the tall man with the raven black hair and piercing blue eyes. The tall man look down down with a frown on the lips as he growled to scare the kid away but instead Arthur giggled.

"Lucian, don't scare the kid." Another man appeared carrying a young kid about Arthur's age on his shoulder. "Klamira said not to stress out or it will be bad for the baby."

The man growled as he crosses his arm exposing his thick biceps from his tank top. The other man puts the boy on his shoulder down and motioned him to play with Arthur.

"Go on Achilles, you can play with Arthur now." The boy beamed at the man and took Arthur's hand in him as they scamper towards the green grass. He look at the young boys play with the mud near the table and chuckled. He look at the man sitting on the sofa with a scowl on his face. "Lucian, don't sulk." He nuzzled Lucian's hair as he leaned from behind while gently caressing the prominent bump on the hunk man before him.

"Try being pregnant and you'll know how shit it would be!" He groaned as he crosses his arms. "You just have to be damn forgetful to use a condom during sex!" Lucian threw a fit as the man over him planted butterfly kisses on his hair.

"Sorry, babe. I wanted to give it to you raw like you always wanted but I guess I learned my lesson. From now on I'll wear a condom when we do it OK."

"The hell you are! Wait a minute, scratch that. Forget what I said earlier. I rather get pregnant everyday than feel that plague infested contraption on my skin." Lucian groaned as the man smiled.

"You sure. I don't want you to be depressed. Vlad would ..."

"Don't talk about that bat when I'm here, Rex!" Lucian scoffed as he rubbed his belly gently. "It's bad enough that I have to share you with others but to share you with him!"

"Sorry babe. I won't talk about him today but you behave when were at home. I don't want the kids to see their fathers fighting over each other." Rex said as he wrapped his arms around Lucian's thick neck as they watch Arthur and Achilles play.

"I love you." Lucian murmured as Rex played with his silky black hair that he decided to let it grow. Rex smiled as he bit Lucian's left ear that made the young man shake in pleasure.

"You're too damn sexy even you're pregnant that I like to take you on this chair and fuck you like a wolf on heat."

"You do fuck like a wolf on heat." Lucian corrected as Rex grinned. "If you don't I wouldn't be in this position right now."

"I guess I do."

Rex lifted Lucian's chin and gave him a kiss. Lucian smirked as he opened his lips to give Rex' tongue access.

"Papa! Dada!" Achilles runs to the two men with Arthur on his hand. "I like to show Art my wolf. Can I? Can I?" The boy pouts his lips and gave the cutest puppy dog eyes to his parents.

"Oh no! Not the eyes." Rex acted like it was terrifying as he raises his hands . Lucian rolled his eyes and shifted on his seat.

"Papa!" Achilles pouts and tugged Rex' pants still looking up his father. Rex smiled and pats Achilles' head.

"Well, its OK if Arthur is fine with it."

"I'm OK Mister King." Arthur beamed as Rex bends his head sideways in confusion.

"King?" He asked.

"Yes. Papa told me you're the king of the kings. That means you are very important like this!" Arthur explained as he spreads his arms to measure the greatness of Rex' importance. The man just chuckled. " So I got to treat you with respect as Daddy said."

"Aaawww... You're to precious Arthur." Rex squats down to pat Arthur's head that made Arthur giggled. Achilles pouts and swats his father's hand away from Arthur's hand.

"Papa don't touch Arthur like that!" Rex grinned and looks at Lucian who is now sitting up.

"Looks like your son is has a crush, Lucian." Rex beamed as Lucian looked at his son.

"Too bad Kill. I heard Dmitri and Max like Arthur too." He teased as Achilles frowned and hugged Arthur possessively.

"No! Art is mine." He yelled and looked at Arthur. "You're mine Art, right?"

"Uhm... I'm Papa's and Daddy's. But I like Kill too!" Arthur beamed his killer smile and Achilles smiled too. "So can I see your wolf, Kill?" He looked at Rex then at Lucian. "Can I Mister King? Mister King"

Both man looked at each other and nodded. Achilles leaped around and stripped his shirt and shorts. Arthur giggled and beamed at Achilles who is handing his clothes to his father, Rex. Achilles immediately crouched and soon after a couple of minutes of bone snapping, a grey wolf pup emerged. His eyes were bright brown like Achilles and was taller than your average Doberman.

It approached Arthur and licked his face making him giggle. Arthur pecked Achilles' nose and the wolf whined affectionately.

"You look cool, Kill!" Arthur beamed as Achilles barked before licking Arthur once more. "But Papa and Daddy's wolf is better." The wolf whined sadly as Arthur hugged his head and kiss its head. "Don't be sad Kill. I feel sad when you're sad." Achilles looked at him and Arthur smiled. "I'm OK Kill. So, you don't hate me? Really?"

The two man looked at the boys in wonder especially at Arthur.

"Didn't they said he could read minds." Lucian asked as he looked at Arthur who chased Achilles playfully. Pausing a minute as if they are talking.

"Yes. He sure is a special child, both a gift from the heaven and the earth." Rex sat down beside Lucian as he nibbled his ear making the man moan. "Much like you and Achilles are to me." He cooed.

Arthur stopped playing with Achilles and beamed at the mansion. " They're here!" Rex looked at Lucian. He took a sniff into the air and nodded at Rex. Achilles shifted back and ran stark naked at Rex.

"Papa!" Achilles ran towards Rex and raised his arms motioning him for his dress. He chuckled and started to dress the young boy.

Arthur darted pass Lucian and Rex and ran towards the tall man in a black suit. The man beamed at him and knelt down and opened his arms. Arthur hugged him and nuzzled his face on the man's chest.

"Papa!" Arthur cooed as he looked at the emerald green eyes of the man.

"How I missed you baby." The man exclaimed as he nuzzled Arthur's hair with his nose. "Do you miss Papa?" Arthur beamed at his father.

"Yes Papa." The man kissed Arthur's nose and the boy giggled, kissing the man's nose as well.

"I hope you had a nice trip, Alpha." Rex greeted as the man looked at him cradling Arthur in his arms.

"Yes I do. Thanks for taking care of Arthur for us your excellency." He nodded his head in gratitude. "I hope it wasn't a bother."

"Nonsense, Alpha. Arthur was an angel." Rex smiled and motioned them to the table. The man carried Arthur and saw Achilles looking at Arthur. He smiled at him and the boy blushed.

"Good day to you Prince Achilles. Do you want to play with Arthur" The boy smile got bigger and nodded happily. The man looked at Arthur and smirked at him.

"Can I papa? I already saw Kill's wolf already."

"Really?" He puts the boy down as Arthur nodded at him. " Play nice baby." He gave a light push at Arthur's bum and the boys ran with their hands intertwined.

"They're becoming quite fast friends, aren't they Alpha?" Rex approached the man and offered him a seat near the table.

"I do see the young prince is quite smitten with my son." The man looked at Rex with a blank face. Rex smirked at him and looked at the kids once again.

"I do believe so."

Arthur was tackled by Achilles and both boys rolled in the grass laughing their young hearts out. Lucian groaned and looked at Rex.

"Will you both quit talking about my son's future. You made it sound like he's some queer." Rex glared at him and he pursed his lips. " Not that it matters..."

Rex sat down near Lucian and wrapped his arm around his waist as he kissed his cheek.

"Well..." Lucian trails off as he scratches his head. "How's your mate?" The man smiled at hin and intertwined his fingers over the table.

"He's doing fine, King. And thanks for asking. He's just busy with the packs' meeting with Jerome and the others. I apologize for his absence.'"

"Don't worry about it." Rex replied as he rubbed Lucian's prominent belly.

"Fuh. Jerome's pack is trouble. Are those guys bothering your pack? They are bad news and you know it. I would like to give a piece of mind if only I'm not carrying this." Lucian scoffs as Rex grabbed his free hand and applied a little pressure on it to comfort him. "I'm sure your mate would like to serve his head on a plate."

"Don't you worry, King. I assure you he was eager to wage war on Jerome's pack but I convinced him to settle it first with a meeting it him and the other surrounding packs." Rex smiled at the man as he nodded approving at his judgment but Lucian rolled his eyes.

"Heh. Go figures. I know as everyone else that your pack can wipe out Jerome's forces with ease." Lucian smirked as Rex shook his head.

"I believe that going with the peaceful approach is still better alternative than going into war." Rex said as he looked at the man before him as he continued to watch his son play with the young prince. "So Alpha, I wonder why weren't you at the meeting with the other Alphas."

The man smirked and leaned back on his seat as he crosses his leg. "I was just teaching him a lesson on abstinence and maybe also letting him handle things like this like civilized man."

"You're one sadistic man." Lucian irked as he looked at the man. "Too think of it that both of you are dominant Alpha wolves living together in one roof and able to come out alive everyday is just unreal."

"How do you do that by the way?" Rex can't help but ask, his curiosity was very obvious.

"About what your excellency?" The man asked quite confused.

"Be able to go through the day and still be a loving couple. I mean after breaking the bond and all."

The man chuckled and looked at his reflection on the contents of his cup. "The bond was never broken, your excellency." Rex and Lucian shot a confusing brow. "Well, actually did reject each other and it was crap, if you don't mind."

Rex smiled. "None taken."

"We were confused and young. But I guess if you really loved someone that even the most supernatural forces couldn't break us apart. I guess you could say that after we found our love for each other in our own accord and not with some mate pull that the heavens have decided, was even stronger than before. And Arthur would be the proof of it all." As the man looked at the young kid running towards him with a beam in his eyes.

"Papa! Papa! Can you tell the story of the red wof and the white wof to Kill?" Arthur asked as he tugged the man's pants. The man looked at his son and Achilles as he beamed a smile at them. He looked at Rex who motioned him to continue.

"This would be great." Lucian smirked deviously. "Now I can get back with that Redhead next time we meet."

Rex rolled his eyes as he found how childish Lucian could be.

Arthur beamed at his father as he was cradled to his lap. He gave a peck on his tousled hair before looking at Rex, Lucian and Achilles.

"Let me see. Where to begin ..."
