"De zonen van de deities,"
(The sons of the deities)

Adriel answered Noa and was about to kneel.

"Don't," One of their visitors stopped him.

The other one leans closer and whispers, "I know we are handsome, but why are they looking at us like that?"

The other just rolled his eyes, "They can't see our faces. Just our eyes,"

"Shame. They can't see my handsomeness," the other responded making the youngsters gape at him.

"Anyway, we just came to check on you. Our boy Kieran is worried about you," The man added.

Adriel sighed, "My mate doesn't want to get exposed,"

"He'll come around. Do what you must. This is your destiny. You just need to make him understand," Gulf said.

"But, my lord-

"Just call us Papa and Dada," Gulf said.

The five of them are hesitant making  Mew and Gulf chuckle.

"Our names must remain a secret for your safety as you still do not know who your true enemies are," Mew said making them understand.

They nodded. "Uhm, sir- I mean Papa, was my decision, wrong?" Adriel asked.

"Son, there's nothing wrong with what you wanted to do. Your mate is facing a crisis in his life and he needs to surpass that. So, you boys need to be patient and help each other to make him understand," Gulf answered.

"Kid, you need to assure your mate that he's the only one for you, and together, you will overcome your foes," Mew added.

Adriel smiled gratefully. "I will. Thank you, Papa, Dada,"

Gulf and Mew smiled in return.

"Uhm, if I may, can I-

"Yes. You will meet them soon," Gulf answered the question of Carson making the latter shocked.

"Okay, boys, we will leave now. Stay safe and alert," Mew said, and they didn't wait for them to reply and left.

The boys were left astonished.

"Did we really..." Kai trailed.

"T-They are from another world," Ryder mumbled.

"He... He just read my..." Carson was awestruck.

"I still have goosebumps," Noa shivered.

Adriel is now more determined.

Days passed and Davin is still avoiding his mate.

One morning, he woke up without Adriel beside him. Thinking that the latter might be in the dining room, he did his morning routine to get ready for class.

Going to the dining area, he frowned seeing only their 4 friends.

"He's not here," Ryder answered his silent question.

"It's too early for the first period," he said thinking Adriel went to the Academy.

"Well, he's skipping today's classes," Carson answered without looking.

That made Davin frown deeper. "Where did he go then?" he inquired.

Sighing, Carson put down his utensils and stood up, "Somewhere that will listen to him. I'm done, come on, Kai," he said leaving.

Kai stand up as well and followed Carson. Davin sighed. He raised his eyebrow seeing Noa and Ryder looking at him.

"What?" he asked.
