Alpha and elas

by the fireplace

"there we are, gather around kids let's keep you warm" elas said as he sat infront on the fireplace in the livingroom that alpha put on. alpha quickly sat comfortably next to elas, as he was about to cuddle him a beautiful little girl split them apart with a big smile. the two smiled too as alpha picked her up and set her on his lap, cuddling the girl close. soon after a little boy ran toward them, practically jumping on elas's lap to get cuddled too. the family laughed as they all stared at the crackling fire.

"what were you two doing? i heard you running around like crazy" alpha chuckled.

"we were playing tag daddy!" lenore happily stated, she was always happy when someone played with her. alpha nodded and placed a kiss on her cheek. elas smiled at his husband with adoring eyes. that's when dupin spoke up.

"papa, what's that ring you always wear? why don't you ever take it off?" he said as he grabbed elas's hand and pointed at the ring.

"that's my wedding ring dear" elas giggled.

"wedding ring?" he asked as he stared at him confused.

"mhm, its the ring your father gave me when we got married. look, daddy has one too you see?" elas said as he pointed at alpha who showed off his ring to his kids.

"so, you don't take it off because it means you love eachother?" lenore asked as she played with alpha's ring a bit. elas nodded softly before looking his husband in the eyes.

"how did you two fall in love then?" dupin asked as elas looked at him.

"yeah! and how did you meet?" lenore asked excited as she snuggled into alpha's chest. alpha chuckled as he looked at elas.

"you first pup" he said as elas sighed.

"well...we first met when...your father robbed the kingdom with uncle akkar! you see, your father was a thief from a far away place" elas said as he looked at his kids.

"woah! a real thief?! why did you ever give that up?" dupin said to alpha.

"yeah...that's definitely my son alright" alpha laughed and elas giggled too.

"your father was breaking into this very castle we call home, trying to steal some riches. he almost succeeded too! but when uncle akkar and him accidentally sneaked into my room where i was sleeping, they got busted by me. uncle akkar was already gone and had already left, as soon as daddy wanted to go after him i stopped him and asked him to take me with him." elas smiled, lenore's eyes were sparkling.

"did you take him with you daddy?" she asked him. alpha nodded.

"ofcourse i did, if i wouldn't have, you two would have never existed." alpha said.

"why did you want to leave, papa?" dupin asked.

"because your uncle dior was mean to me, after a while he was also mean to daddy so that's why he doesn't live in the castle with us." elas couldn't help but chuckle.

"i remember when your father picked me up and held me close. he swooped me right off my feet and jumped out the window with me, that was the moment i fell in love with him." elas smiled to alpha, who smiled back lovingly. he was so lucky.

"ew...gross" dupin said as lenore quickly shushed him, lenore loved hearing stories about their adventures.

"shhh! dupin! daddy is going to tell us how he fell in love" lenore said quickly.

"alright princess, so the story papa told was actually my second attempt at robbing the kingdom. the first attempt i already fell head over heels for him. i was running over the rooftops as the town underneath us was panicking. uncle akkar and i ran fast to get as much as we could. the entire kingdom was hiding, until papa walked out of the library he was hiding at. he started to yell at me, scolding me for being a thief. i stopped running and stared at the figure yelling at me. uncle akkar was still running. our eyes looked at eachother and i could feel my heart sink! i didn't plan to fall for your father at all. i took off the mask i was wearing to look at him better until uncle akkar yelled at me and told me to hurry up." alpha explained as the kids looked with wide eyes.

"woahhh! your story is like a fairytale!" lenore exclaimed, making alpha and elas giggle.

"i guess so huh? guess i was lucky" alpha smiled as he scooted closer to elas.

elas smiled at him before connecting their lips in a kiss.

"ewwww!" dupin said, making the couple giggle and pull away.

"don't worry cubs, when you grow up you will find love too, and you won't think daddy kissing papa is as gross anymore" alpha said placing lenore down to stand up, elas doing the same with dupin.

"well at least mine will be a girl" dupin mumbled, making alpha smile.

"alright kids, time for bed" elas said standing up. "give daddy a goodnight kiss"

lenore gave him a kiss on the cheek as she hugged him tightly. dupin gave him a quick peck on the cheek and walked away, but before he could alpha had already pulled him back, making fake eating noises as he tickled dupin. dupin's giggles echoed through te castle as a smile grew on elas's face. as soon as dupin stood back up he tried to contain his laughter again. giving his father a highfive before running upstairs. elas grabbed lenore's hand and walked upstairs with his cubs.

a few minutes later elas returned to the fireplace.

"they're fast asleep" he said as he walked towards his husband, who had his eyes glued on him. alpha hummed. elas then climbed on alpha's lap, holding him close.

"i didn't know you fell in love with me that early on" he said as he stared at him.

he felt alpha rub his sides before he held onto his waist.

"you're quite the eyecatcher princey" alpha smiled up at him. elas smiling back before connecting their lips in a romantic kiss. they kissed for a while as alena walked past holding a cup of coffee and heading toward the stairs, only glancing at the couple near the fireplace and walking past.

"i pretend i do not see" alena said, making the couple pull away and laugh. alena softly laughing along before disappearing upstairs.
