Alec groaned as he heard his papa yell to him from the bottom of the stairs. "Alec, sweetie, it's time to get up. If you are not dressed and ready in 15 minutes, your daddy said he'll be up to drag you off the bed, after he throws cold water on you.
Alec rolled over and kicked the blankets off his small body, "Yes, papa. I'll be down in a minute."
He stood from his bed, making sure to not stand too fast and get dizzy. Once he knew he wouldn't fall he quickly walked to his closet to pick his outfit for the day. Today was special, so he knew he needed to dress to impress. He picked out a black, deep plunge V-neck belly shirt, with a gray vest, and a pair of his best hip-hugging flared-bottom jeans. Putting on his ensemble he strutted over to his full-length mirror to check out his appearance.
"The boys are gonna be drooling today, hunnie~." He blew himself a kiss to the mirror then made his way down the stairs.
As he walked towards the kitchen for breakfast he heard his papa let out a soft squeak.
The scene before him was just too cute. His daddy Chester had his papa Peter trapped against the sink. Chester had his big muscular arms wrapped possessively around Peter. Peter tried his best to shake Chester off of him, but he began to rub his crotch on Peter's ass.
Having enough of the openly affectionate lovers Alec cleared his throat to make his presence known. Chester quickly removed his hands and stepped away from Peter. Alec held back a grin as Peter hid his blushing face from him, behind a cabinet door.
Chester grabbed the plates full of food and walked over to the table. Peter is not far behind with a pitcher of orange juice. Alec took his seat as they both took theirs.
Peter smiled as tears came to his eyes, "Happy birthday, Alec." He sniffled a little and began to break down in tears, "My baby is finally 18. This is the happiest day of my life." Chester patted Peter on the shoulders, he tried his best not to show any emotion, but Alec could tell he was happy too.
Chester stood and walked over to the pantry closet near the doorway, pulling something off the shelf. It was a small, long black box. He took a deep breath, then walked over to Alec. Alec eyed the apparent birthday gift as his daddy set it in front of him. Peter stood and walked over to Chester and they wrapped their arms around each other to watch him open the box.
Alec gently lifted the lid and gasped at the beauty inside. It was a beautiful rose. He picked it up with two hands as gently as he could. He thought the texture would be glass, but his eyebrows furrowed when he noticed it wasn't.
Alec looked up to his parents, "Is this real?"
Peter nodded his head, "It's a petrified rose. Which means it will stay in full bloom like that for eternity. It will never wilt, or die. Just like our love for you, Alec."
Alec felt tears swell in his eyes. He began to stand to give his loving parents a hug when they all heard a startling knock from the front door.
Chester and Peter gave each other a worried look, but Chester put up his hand for us to stay calm. He walked over to the door and stood behind it; his hand on the handle. With a deep threatening voice he spoke, "Who is it and what is your business here?"
There was a moment of silence before a weak frightened voice answered, "I-It's me M-march. W-wonderland need-ds your h-help."
Peter gasped as Chester froze. Alec looked at both his parents in confusion. "Wonderland? What's that?" Chester sighed heavily as he opened the door to reveal a strange-looking man with brown rabbit ears?
He stepped aside, "Come in March, quickly before anyone notices you." The strange man warily looked in the doorway before he came in.
Alec gasped as he noticed his appearance. His clothes were tattered and torn with stains of what looked like blood. The skin that wasn't coved looked rotted and grotesque. He looked like the living dead.
Peter was on the verge of a total meltdown as he hurriedly helped the man into the living room. Alec stood in the doorway in shock as his papa and daddy sat with March on the large couch.
The air was thick with fear and worry. March closed his eyes and began to speak.
"It all happened the day you left 1,500 years ago..."
Alec scoffed. "What the hell is he talking about?" Alec waved his arms in a frustrated manner at his parents, ignoring the now crazy-sounding man in the room.
Peter sighed softly then he placed a gentle hand on March's shoulder, "March, time passes differently in this world. So for us, it's only been 15 years."
March nodded his head in understanding. He was about to continue when Alec interjected again.
"Papa, what do you mean our world? There is only one world."
Peter shook his head and gave Alec a sad look. "Alec daddy and I never thought we would have to tell you anything about Wonderland, but you are not just Alec Demuri..." he paused for a moment then closed his eyes. "You are Prince Alec Demuri, the descendant of Fae royalty and the true king of Wonderland."
Alec couldn't believe what he was hearing. "You can't be serious?!"
Chester and Peter stood up and suddenly their appearance changed before Alec's eyes. Peter suddenly had white rabbit ears on his head and a fluffy white tail by his butt. Chester now had brown cat ears and a long black and brown striped tail.
Alec suddenly fainted from shock. Peter went to Alec's aid as Chester told March to continue to explain what was happening.
"After you escaped with the young prince Hatter fought with honor against Lord Vladimir and his men... But he lost. I watched everything from the tree lines to much of a coward to save him. Hatter knew it to be better if he ended his own life but before he got the chance Lord Vladimir's men restrained him. Lord Vladimir found him guilty of treason, then sentenced him to 1,000 years in the dungeon. A friend of mine was a servant at the castle tasked with cleaning the dungeon cells, so they kept me informed of Hatter's fate.
Lord Vladimir made Hatter endure horrendous torture every day for the entirety of the 1,000 years. After his sentence ended 50 years ago he hide alone in the forest. I finally found him about 5 years after that... He is completely insane. He no longer recognized me and he kept muttering to himself. Saying things like "It's all his fault.... He failed his precious Alec..." Over and Over again. I'm not sure what Lord Vladimir did to him all those years but he is no longer the Hatter we knew.
Lord Vladimir took over the throne after he executed the king and queen. Wonderland has been in turmoil ever since. It's no longer bright and cheerful. Death awaits anyone around every corner.
Lord Vladimir's wretched curse on the kingdom has left it desolate and dark. He is an evil and vindictive tyrant, but the people no longer have the will to fight back."
Peter, Chester, and March sat in silence after March had finished telling what has happened to wonderland.
Finally having enough Chester stood, "We must return to Wonderland and help Alec reclaim his throne."
Peter shook his head, "No, Alec is just a boy. Lord Vladimir will surely kill him if he were to return."
The three men argued with each other for a good while before Alec had enough. "Will you all please stop fighting..."
Peter looked at Alec in shock and worry.
Alec gave him a faint smile, "I've been awake this whole time papa. I was just trying to ready myself to face you all. I've been listening to everything you have been saying and...even though it all sounds made up... I've decided to help. I'll do what I have to, to save this Wonderland place."
Peter looked at Alec with tears in his eyes and Chester grabbed him in a tight embrace, "I'm so proud of you, Alec." Peter wrapped his arms in as well as they had a family hug.
Chester let go and cleared his throat. "It's settled tomorrow, we return to Wonderland."
