Dreamer

Chapter 28

Son? Son... Sonday? Sun...Sunday? I tried to figure out what the hell was happening... Lucian... But he was... An... Orphan?

"Hello Mom," he said his voice cool.

Mom? Mom... Monday? Mon... Monday?

Nope I'd heard correctly... Son and Mom... Lucian sure had a lot of explaining to do. And as if reading my mind he grabbed my hand and whispered in my ear, "I'll tell you the whole story later, okay babes?"

I smiled at the nickname and he nodded as the woman tore his hand from mine and shoved me back a bit.

"Oh my boy. You're okay. I'm so sorry we did that to you," she said pulling him into a hug. Even though Lucian towered over her the woman still had a serious presence.

"Mom... I'm sorry it took me so long to come back... But I brought someone... Someone very special to me... And you may be able to help us." his voice became a little more relaxed when he looked at me and pulled back from his mother gripping her shoulders.

"Mom this is Mist Night. Queen of Aura..."

Lucian's P.O.V

My mothers eyes lit up with shock. Ryan and Jess had started false rumors that Mist was journeying to the dark realm of the roamers in order to go to the Lux temple. The temple of light and shadows.

My moms gaze turned to my mate. I stiffened as her eyes ran over her. Calculating. Mist blushed a bit and became a little shy. It was kinda cute

I knew she would interrogate me for answers later... And I would answer. Truthfully this time... Or face her wrath...

She smiled as my uncle approached. Still dripping water from her attack. He gave her a dark glare

"Did you have a nice swim?" she smiled and asked with a giggle.

He walked right up to her and shoved his finger in her face. "How are you do that to a duke!"

Obviously my uncle hadn't heard... Oh well, he'd dug his grave.

A dark smile spread across her face. She could be the most beautiful and calm person I know... But she has a dark side. She became a wrath, her dark shadow heritage shinning through.

"How dare you speak this way to your queen. Now I suggest you remove your finger from my face or I'll remove it from your hand." even I tensed at her words.

My father quickly pulled his hand to his side, fear shone in his eyes. Mist giggled and clung onto my arm. The seriousness faded from the air as she giggled and kissed my cheek.

I don't know how she did it. Serious one moment, happy the next. It was kinda cute but it could be scary. Especially when her wrath was on your end... I shivered at the memory of being thrown into a tree by a boulder because I hadn't agreed to go to the market and buy her a sword.

Well... Now she had a sword and sais. Training with her was becoming deadly sins recently she started summoning roamers that were under her control to train with.

"Oh and who do we have here?" he said squinting at me. Greeeat... He didn't recognize his own nephew.
Perhaps that was a good thing.

"This Nathan. Is my son Lucian Silver. Your nephew, and rightful Lord of Ortus. Or should I say, soon to be King. You will not hurt him as you killed my husband for power!" she started screaming and I looked at my mother and then at Nathan.

"Let's go inside. Dusk approaches and we don't need to deal with any fire or shadow roamers now," a distraction anything to get them to calm down.

It worked. They nodded and we stepped inside. We'd lived in the house for a month and we were getting ready to return to Dreamen. We would've left tomorrow... But it seems that plan would change.

"Why doesn't everyone take a seat and I'll go make some tea?" my moms voice rang out as she walked into the kitchen.

Nathan had instantly went for a single couch inbetween the two long ones which were slanted at an angle. I sat on the end of one of the long couches and Mist came and sat right up against me. Connor, fascinated by Mist, sat next to her. He looked at her and said "How did you make my dad look like a fish! Dad never loses you were awesome!" he said with excitement in his voice.

"Well you see Connor. I'm a Muto. I control all the elements. It wasn't a fair fight. But if he wishes for a rematch. I would be fine with that," she smiled at the boy. Nathan looked at her with a glance that said he wanted a rematch they both nodded and their attention turned back to Connor.

"Ooohhhh can you show me something please Mist... Oh I'm sorry your highness," the boy blushed. He seemed to be nothing like his father.

"Just call me Mist, and I would love to," she smiled sweetly and I put my hand on her leg. She was beautiful and kind and loving. She'd make an amazing queen. Aura would once again be at peace.

Mist's P.O.V

I was so happy this boy didn't find me dangerous or scary for controling all the powers. I wasn't going to hurt anyone who didn't deserve it.

I pulled some pebbles through the open window. They were red, white and brown. He watched them as they landed on the table.

Lucian squeezed my knee lightly and I turned and smiled at him. He knew I loved making people happy. Nathan just watched me as I turned back and made the pebbles melt into sand. I held out my hand and the red dust started collecting on my hand in the shape of a circle surrounded by fire and it hardened into rock again. I smiled at Connor who was beaming. I then pulled the brown and white together and it started taking the shape of a brown horse with a white mane and tail. It hardened into rock and I handed it to to Connor.

"My power isn't only destruction Nathan," I said looking up at the man lounging on the couch, "It's beauty too," and it was.

A scream filled the silence I had created and I shot to my feet and so did Lucian and Nathan.
"Connor go hide," Nathan said as we went to the kitchen... Lucian's mother!

Oh shadows! I teleported ahead and stood there and watched as Ryan held a knife to her throat.

"Ryaaaan! Let her go." I sighed at my royal guard. Well... Now he was technically a Lord as when Jess had married him her aunt had stripped her of her title. So I had given her a spot on my court as Lady of the Glatian Lands. The country that boardered Dreamen and Lagoon.

"Oh Mist! You're okay! We have bad news... We need to return to Dreamen immediately!" he said releasing the shaking woman and walking up to us.
"They're coming." his voice laced in fear.

Those words... They were exactly what Belinda had said so long ago... They... The roamers...

The war had begun...
