"Ah. The ceremony should be just fine. All of us will be there. Arielle and the familiars will also be there. You don't have anything to worry about. Do you know where it is?"
"Not sure. Mom said it's a spot between Aslan and Alpha Pure?"
"You've been able to talk to her?"
"Yes. She sent a letter to Orlando and after he gave me a general summary about it. She’d rather tell me in person, but they're dealing with some more surprise attacks of Forsaken."
"This Forsaken trouble is getting out of hand. The Council hasn't even addressed it. Aren't people complaining? Or the ones who survive the attacks standing up for themselves?"
"To be honest, I don't know. It feels as if everyone is ignorant about it OR they're too afraid to confront the Council?" I suggested.
"What's the point of having a Council if you can't bring forward issues that are happening around our dimension? If they aren't even doing anything to stop what's going on and only Alpha Pure is assisting, shouldn't they just overthrow the Council?"
"I feel if this were another galaxy like the one we visited, they wouldn't let the Darkness run through their dimensions and cause chaos," I commented.
"I think they were called realms," Cairus corrected.
"Same thing." I shrugged and noticed his grin.
"I think after your Awakening Ceremony, we should suggest for your family and maybe a few more representatives to see the Council and find out what is being done to lower or even eliminate the Forsaken."
"That sounds like a good idea. If my mother and dads can gather even a small group of leaders or a spokesperson of each race to confront the issue that is clearly affecting multiple dimensions and shifters alike, we could get some answers," I added.
"I think it's a good plan. Let's talk to the others about it tomorrow, and we can aim to do that after your awakening."
"I feel better now." I smiled.
I sat up, resting my hands on my knees and looked to him. "Can you move now?" I asked.
He nodded and sat up. "Much better." He stretched out his arms and legs as if he were getting out of bed in the morning.
"I'm glad."
He smiled while crossing his legs and looked at me with a softened expression. I pressed my left hand on the floor, my eyes drifting to his pink lips, and I began to close my eyes as I watched him lean forward to meet me halfway.
Our lips pressed lightly against each other, our movement starting out slow and beginning to deepen.
"Boo."
We both flinched at the creepy sound, breaking our kiss to look to our left. Caio crouched before us with a wide grin on his face.
"You're a fucking ass!" Cairus huffed, reaching out to punch Caio who chuckled.
"Takes one to know one."
"Argh!" Cairus grumbled.
I laughed. "Hi, Caio."
"Hey, Cutie Pie." Caio leaned over to kiss me lightly on the lips. "I had to get payback."
"I figured," I replied, looking down at the small tray with wrapped sandwiches. "Did you make us tuna sandwiches?" I asked happily, realizing I was starving.
"Yup! Thought it would be a good meal before you guys finished up. The others are staying out tonight, so we get the house to ourselves!" Caio declared.
"Which means..." Cairus grinned, looking at his brother with a mischievous grin.
"DRINKING PARTY!" they said in unison.
