Gwen's Pov

"Welcome! I am grateful that you all have decided to come." Anderson says.

The Field

"As promised, Anderson will come forward so Aro can go through his memory." Steven states.

He walks up to us. His guards staying in place, but their eyes never leaving the king.

Aro meets him half way, each Volturi guard on high alert.
"As promised." He says stretching out his hand.

I take in his appearance, as well as the others behind him. No one seemed off, or nervous. But then again, some people are good at faking.

While Aro goes through his memories, I watch as Edward concentrates as well. My eyes flicker back to Aro as he releases his hand.

"He speaks truth." I look to Edward for confirmation and he stiffly nods his head.

"I would never lie about the death of my wife.Since my word has been confirmed true...should we head on in?" He turns slightly to the left, gesturing us forward.

"In where? It's nothing but trees behind you." Emmett exclaims.

Steven turns to one of his guards, and he raises his hand behind him, in the air. I watched confused, only until the scenery ripples.

"A portal?" Carlisle whispers, next to me.

"Shall we?" Anderson says, gesturing us to follow him.

Taking a hold of Carlisle's hand, we walk forward into the portal.

We enter into the portal, the once flowery field, now replace with beautiful yellow flowers.

Beautiful cottage houses stood before us.

And to the center of the town, stood a beautiful Manor. Which I am sure is where Steven and they stayed.

"Welcome to the Secret Tree."

Many of the villagers watched us as we passed. Some bowing, others waving in greeting towards their king.

"Anderson stays in the Guest Cottage at the back of the main manor. I'm sure Aiden is excit-"

"Momma!!!!"

"Aiden!!!!" I run to my son, lifting him in my arms, spinning him around. I couldn't stop the tears that fell from my eyes. Finally he's in my arms again.

"How are you baby? Are you okay? Look how rosey your cheeks have gotten." I say biting them.

"Stop mom." He says giggling.

"Stop Mom? Where is my baby boy and what have you done with him?" I say tickling his stomach.

"I'm right here momma. My speech has just developed. Uncle Anderson says it's because I'm a very smart boy."

"Indeed you are." I respond, glancing at Anderson.
"I think there's some other people who would like to see you."

"What's up little Aiddie. Come give your big bro a hug." Emmett says, getting down on one knee. His arms wide open.

"Hey Aiddie." Rose whispers out.

"Uncle Emmett!!! Aunt Rosie!!!" The little joy, dashes out of my hand over to the other two most important persons in him life. Everyone very happy to see him again.

"Hi dad." He says shyly looking up at Carlisle. Carlisle scoops him up. Hugging him tightly, but not enough to break him.

"It's good to see you again son."

"Who are they? I like their capes momma."

"They're good friends of your father. The one with the long hair, his name is Aro. He's Aunt Jewel's boyfriend." I tell him.

"Like how I'm Mary's boy friend." He says in shock.

"Yes- wait what!? Who's boyfriend?!" Did my three year old just call himself someone's boyfriend?!!

"Aiden, why don't you go get Mary and introduce her to your family." Anderson tells him laughing. Aiden scrambles out of Carlisle hands, running into the Manor.

I shoot Anderson a look of disbelief "What-"

"You'll see soon." Anderson says.

A few seconds after, Aiden comes out holding the hand of a beautiful little girl, with a familiar face slowly walking behind them.

Mary

Fredrick.(Remember Freddie's eyes are green."

"Mommy this is my girl friend Mary." The little girl, shyly waves. Hiding herself behind Aiden.

"No need to be afraid Mary. No one will hurt you." He softly tells her. She shyly nods her head, but remained where she was. Aiden seemed to have no problem with it. Standing in front of her, protectively.

What in the world is going on here? He's only 3!!

"It's not uncommon for a Fairy to find their chosen at a young age." Steven explains.

"He's still three though." Fredrick says.
"I've establish with Aiden, that they are the bestest friends in the world and that they should take care of each other. When he's older, he'll learn older things."

I sent Fredrick a grateful smile, which he returns with a nod.

"We have rooms prepared for you all in the manor. We know that most of you are vampires so we prepared feeding bags for you all as well." Steven says.

"Dinner will be served soon for the others. And we'll discuss pressing matters after."

°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°

We sat in the meeting room.

Going over all that has happened. My eyes couldn't help but to continuously glance over to Aiden, who sat happily in the corner with playing with Mary.

His Chosen. Huh! I just got over Henry, and now my baby boy's already taken and he isn't even of age yet.

"So as I told you, Fredrick's father leads the Hunters Clan. They mostly target the supernatural world, but when they need test subjects, they kidnap humans." Anderson explains.

"Then what about the two men, that died? The reports showed that all the air was removed from their lungs." Zeke states.

"Air El's are able to control every element concerning air. Sadly with the right training, an El can use their power to completely remove the air from a person's lungs." My father says.

"But how do you know this?" Luis asks.

"There was an El, his name is Ramon. He was our father's closet friend. One day, there was an ultication with another one of my father's advisers. They were mocking him,claiming that he only wanted my father's throne."

"Out of anger, he used his power against him, but this was different. He completely suckered all of the air out of his lungs. It was the first time anyone had seen something like that." Dad tells us.

"Using your power against a fellow El or person for any reason other than for training or for protection is against the law. Killing an El like that, is punishable by death." He explains to us.

"There's a forbidden power for every El, and that one is forbidden for all Air Els. The people called upon their king to execute Ramon for his crimes, but my father was hesitant. It was his closet friend after all."Gastron says.

"But as their king, dad had to make a choice. It was either his people, or his friend. And we all know the obvious choice. Instead of executing him dad banished him from the kingdom. Locked him up, in his personal prison." Dad adds.
"But recently he had broken out, and we are searching for him since,but now I think I know where he is."

"There is a possibility that he's the one working with my father."

"But who's looking after Faitoria while your here?" Mom asks.

Anderson glances at Steven. A look of defeat passing through their eyes.

"There was an attack, just like what happened in The Fairy Kingdom. Many of our people died. The other survivors I have hidden away somewhere safe. Faitoria, is not as we know it anymore. It has been completely taken over by the Hunter's Clan. It's where one of their camps are now." He explains to us.

"It's not easy to watch our home be taken from us but, Faitoria is not a place-"

"It's the people." Mom finishes for him.
"Dad always said that. Gasps! Dad doesn't know." She says her hand covering her mouth.

"Neither of them." Steven says.
"We thought it best. They don't know."

"They're already old as it is. Can't stress them to much." Anderson jokes.

"What shall we do then? Are we planning to attack the facility?" I ask.

Ring Ring.

We all turn to Aro, who quickly pulls out his phone.

"Afton."

Wait...Afton?

I look around not finding him.
Was he not here the entire time?

Bernard's Pov

I sat in my office, going over the plans for today. When lover boy arrives, it will finally put my entire plan in action. Once I have unleashed the Beast caged up inside the Elementress. I will use her to reek havoc on the world.

I already have the Fairy and Fai kingdoms. The vampire one, seems to have gotten away...for now.

Eltria surprised me though. It seems we underestimated their strength and loyalty.

The two men killed from alcohol poisoning. Hah!! I have to thank Roman for that idea. The officers, at the police station, it's beautiful to see those who mocked you, now beg you.

"Father, we have them." Evon my right hand and oldest son says, entering my office.

My two boys took after their mother greatly. Especially with their green eyes. Evon however is completely different from Fredrick.

While Fred was more forward with the testing and experiments, Evon was more skilled in combat.

Fred was compatible with most of the tests I did on him. Evon, not so much.

If only he wasn't killed that day.

"Good son. When will they get here?" I watch as the El walks over to Evon, sitting on his lap.

Evon has rather infatuated with the girl. I must admit I'm somewhat tolerable of her presence for now. When it's time, she will be removed. For now...I'll let him have his fun with her.

"They'll be arriving in an hour tops, Javier said."

"Beautiful. This is going to be fun." I smile, sitting back down in my chair.

Aro's Pov

"Afton."

"Master. The cars were ambushed before they could even get to the house."

"What!?" I shout. The other vampires in the room, standing at full alert as well. Bella pulls out her phone trying to contact the wolf I'm sure.

"What is going on?"  I heard Gwen ask again.

"I'm watching them from a distance right now. There's a lot of men."

"How did they even know they were coming." Marcus says.

"It seems Javier knows them Master."

"Javier? He wouldn't?" Carlisle says in disbelief.

"How is everyone?" Marcus asks.

"They're fine, shaken up but fine. No one was hurt...badly."

I let out a loud roar. Punching into the wall.

"Jewel. How is Jewel?" I growl out.

"She was hit, but Ms. D has her."

"They dare lay their hands on my mate!!!"

Gwen's Pov

"Mommy is everything okay?" Aiden asks, coming to me. Mary holding unto to him tightly.

"It seems the cars were ambushed on their way to the Johnson's house love." My head snaps up to look at Carlisle. Not being able to comprehend what I heard.

Aro paced the floor in rage, instructing Afton not to lose sight of them.

"They have The Queen as well." Edward tells my father. Whose face turns red in anger. Vincent clenching his fist.

What is going on? How did they-How did they find out?

Aro hangs up the phone. Throwing it at the wall.

"You sold us out didn't you Gastron!?" My father shouts, advancing his brother. Emmett is quick to hold him back.

"Are you for real Winston?!"

"It's not him!!" Alice shouts.
"It's Javier."

My head snaps in Alice's direction.
"What?"

"It's Javier. He's the one who sold us out." She repeats.

But how does he even know them? He's not even...That's why he stayed back.

Holding unto my head, I slowly feel myself begin to lose consciousness.
The feeling of cold hands holding me, as everything goes black.

I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter. I know I did. Things are getting heated🔥

Muses for Bernard and Evon

Javier

As always...
I'll see you guys in the next chapter✌

Stay Safe. Stay Sweet.
God Bless.
