Blake and Victor returned to the rose castle and saw Lyra watering the roses. She turned to them and smiled, "How was your first eting in the beast city?"
Victor skipped towards her, "It was good"
"It was?" She asked still smiling and he nodded.
"There is a banquet arranged by the eagle tribe to rejoice the coronation of their new king. Do you want to attend Lilly?" Blake asked coming near her.
Lyra raised her brows, "New king?"
He nodded his head, "The late king’s brother took the seat after killing him"
She was shocked, "He killed his brother?"
"I heard that the late king was cruel to his tribesn"
"Still....." She muttered.
"Will you co to the banquet?" He repeated.
Lyra nodded her head "I’ll go. I Can also et Lucas and Noah’s mother after so many days"
Victor held her hands and dragged her inside the castle, "Now let us go and get you prepared for the banquet"
She giggled and shook her head at his excitent. It was always like this, he would go to faraway places to hunt the prey for their furs and also bought back many colorful fabrics from different rmaid tribes to make her dresses. He would then ticulously create stunning dresses and ask her to try them on. Then he would beam at her and say "My sweet girl is the most beautiful"
They passed Killian and went up the stairs. Blake rolled his eyes at Victor’s childishness and strode towards Killian. He wrinkled his nose in envy inhaling his Lilly’s scent on him. He wanted to just ignore and go inside but Killian stopped him with a smirk hanging on his lips.
Blake narrowed his eyes feeling annoyed "Move!"
Killian took a step forward and stretched his right hand in front of Blake’s eyes, "Do you know what this is?"
He stared at the blue droplet mark on Killian’s wrist and frowned, "What is this?"
"It is my mate’s mark" he replied smugly earning a glare from Blake, "Only soulmates can mark each other like this. ’ONLY SOULMATES’" he emphasized his words and left the castle.
Blake clenched his fists and glared at Killian’s retreating form. It worked, he was furious and jealous after seeing his Lilly’s mark on that annoying panther’s body.
While inside Lyra’s room Victor held a light blue and red knee-length dress against her body, "Blue suits you the best"
She blinked her eyes at Victor, "Are you sure that you are not from my world?" it was not the first ti Lyra asked this question. This guy was so much like the people from the modern world.
Victor stared at her face and said, "Can I tell you the truth?"
Lyra nodded and he started, "The gem had always belonged to the Vulture tribe before it was stolen from the eagle tribe. So obviously all of the previous owners of the gem were found in our tribe. As our tribesn were curious about your world those won explained so things about that world. One thought us about making the dress, another about farming and so on. Ti passed and even our speech and mannerism beca like that, even I a captive inside my father’s castle was influenced so it was easy for others"
"That makes sense....." she said. Then it continued, Victor resud choosing a dress for Lyra, and finally, he was convinced with pristine white knee-length frock made by so rfolk’s fabric.
"You look so pretty..." Victor said after she ca out of her room. Lyra braided her golden blonde hair and let it rest on her side. Her blue eyes shone in contrast with her ivory dress.
Killian who returned to the castle froze in his steps looking at his mate descending the stone stairs, "Where are you going?"
Lyra smiled at him, "To a banquet, will you join us?"
He shook his head, "I can’t leave this vicinity, the enemies will find out about your mother living here if I go too far"
"Then you should stay," Victor said. It was true that he didn’t want Killian to co with his girl, but the real problem was getting found out by their enemies before any preparations.
Lyra sighed and stepped towards him, "You should rest for so ti, don’t overburden yourself"
"I’m fine treasure," he said embracing her, "And you look so lovely"
"Thank you..." she said in a sing-song voice caressing his back.
"We should go or we will be late," Victor said breaking their happy mont.
She kissed Killian’s cheeks, "Go and get so sleep, I’ll return soon"
He leaned forward and pecked her lips, "Be safe" saying that he went up the stairs.
Blake too ca out after so ti and took one of Lyra’s hands leaving the other to Victor.
"Where are Noah and Lucas?"
"They will directly co to the banquet with their tribes" Blake replied walking out of the castle. Then he turned into his half-beast form and carried Lyra towards the eagle tribe. Victor turned into a vulture and soared into the sky.
After traveling for so ti, they reached the eagle tribe. Lion and silver wolf tribe were already inside, while snake tribe and Vulture tribe entered the banquet with Peter and Felix leading them respectively.
As soon as Victor caught sight of his tribesn, he took Lyra’s hand and went to them. Felix glanced at him and bowed, "Greetings your majesty"
Victor told him to raise his head and introduced Lyra, "This is your Queen"
Felix looked at Lyra and blinked his eyes then hastily greeted her after earning a warning glare from Victor, "Greetings my queen"
She nodded her head and after that, Demir ca to them and took her to the scorpion tribe and introduced her, and that followed the snake tribe and finally, Lyra was freed from all this when Lucas’s mother took her to the lion queen.
Wolf queen chuckled looking at Lyra’s tired face, "Poor thing getting dragged around by her mates. They want to show off your pretty self to others to make them envious"
Lyra sighed, "They can be so tiring sotis"
"I know," Noah’s mother said as she gave her a knowing look.
Three continued to converse with each other until they heard a sharp eagle screech followed by many eagles flying around the plaza which had a throne.
Eagles halted their movents when a beastman with light blonde hair with red eyes entered the plaza. Broad shoulders befitting an eagle beastman, he had a cold and indifferent disposition. Covered with a red-furred cape on a black robe, he sat on the king’s seat.
The current witch master of the eagle tribe stepped towards him and made an announcent, "We hereby witness the new king of the great eagle tribe. Let us rejoice for the better future of our eagle tribe and the beast city"
Every eagle beastn inside the banquet screeched and cheered for their new king but the king being hailed didn’t seem to notice anything because his eyes were focused on sothing, No soone else to be exact.
Lyra sensed being stared at by soone and looked in that direction. Kyrell’s eyes turned into slits as he stared back at her eyes. She looked breathtaking in that pristine white dress, but the aspect that pulled him towards her was her bright eyes. They were filled with life and love unlike him who preferred darkness. And he was not able to stop himself from getting up from his seat and next he realized was that him walking towards her.
