When Seokjin and Namjoon awaken, they both sit up quickly and look around in surprise and confusion. "Mutt, what have you done?" Namjoon asks when he sees two shadow wolves sitting beside their bed.

"We have to hurry! We do not know how long we have been asleep!" Seokjin shouts as he scrambles out of the bed.

"Jungho! Soo-ah!" Namjoon shouts and rushes down the large castle corridor.

"Here!" Jungho responds as he and Soo-ah stumble out of their room into the corridor.

"How long did we sleep?" Soo-ah asks as she holds her dizzy head.

"I have no idea, but we must hurry," Namjoon mutters and looks at the large pack of shadow wolves. "Those wolves are reporting to Jungkook. He knows we have awakened."

"Here. Hurry." Soo-ah reaches her hands out to hold the people she will teleport with.

Namjoon quickly grabs Soo-ah's hand and holds Seokjin as Jungho wraps his arm around his wife's waist. When Soo-ah's eyes glow a bright yellow, light surrounds them, and then they are teleported. Seokjin closes his eyes as he holds onto Namjoon.

"We are here. I teleported us to the forest surrounding the castle." Soo-ah informs them as they take in their surroundings.

"She already knows we are here," Namjoon mutters and draws his large sword.

"Brother. What are you doing here?" A woman's mocking voice fills the dark forest.

"I am here to kill you." Namjoon calmly responds and begins marching through the forest.

"You would dare to kill me?" Chaeyoung scoffs and summons large hoards of monsters to kill her brother.

"What did you do to Minjae?" Seokjin asks as he grips his sword.

"Minjae? That pathetic human mutt?" Chaeyoung sneers, causing Seokjin to snarl with anger.

"Do not call my son a mutt!" Seokjin sends a large wave of green energy zipping toward the hoard of monsters.

"But I thought you love calling your human mixed children mutts." Chaeyoung's mocking laugh fills Seokjin with pure rage.

"You disgust me." Seokjin hisses as he rips his sword through a large monster.

"I disgust you? Rich coming from a mere slave!" Chaeyoung sneers as she watches through a mirror from the safety of her castle. "Now, where is your ragtag group of orphans?" She hums as she tries to use her magic to see where Jungkook and the others are. "I know they must not be far behind you. Where are they?" She growls in annoyance when she cannot find them.

"You touched my children. I will be the one to kill you." Seokjin snarls and summons a large wave of green energy and sends it crashing down on the hoard of monsters.

"This way!" Soo-ah shouts as she spots an opening in the hoard of monsters.

"Seokjin!" Namjoon grabs Seokjin and drags him toward the opening.

"Fucking monsters," Jungho mutters and rains down bolts of purple lightning on the monsters.

As they run through the opening, Namjoon creates large ice walls to protect them from the raging monsters. The elven King makes sure to hold onto his husband to keep him by his side.

A cry of a large bird from above draws the attention of the elves and the human magician. Jungho gasps and covers his wife when a phoenix rains down a column of fire on them while Namjoon shoots several spears of ice at the fiery bird. 

"When I catch you, you will tell me what you did to my son." Seokjin snarls and continues to run toward the castle. The beautiful elf knows that his husband will protect him as he runs into danger.
