An Unexpected Love

25. Wolf Guardians

Before we start the chapter, this is my personal theory, not saying Skele-Wolves actually are the Royal Vampire Family's Guardians, I just thought it would change up the stereotype of Wolves and Vampires hating each other in many stories sooo, don't hate me. Also
Carson = Cray
Cerise belongs to me

Muffin is the correct French word for Muffin according to Google,

Also, to explain Cilvester and Carson, because they Cray and Cil are Paperjams kids, so that makes Cilvester and Carson, Jasper's kids. SCREW PHYSICS THEY AIN'T HIS KIDS IN THIS I AM WELL AWARE THAT CANNONLY THEY WOULD BE BUT PHYSICS DON'T EXIST IN MY WRITING ANYMORE SO JUST FUCK IT!! XD

Muffin sat in the field just outside the castle, awaiting an enemy if one were to show. Cerise sat nearby chasing a butterfly. Carson sat in his loves lap. Muffin had his arms wrapped protectively around Carson's waist. "Papa! Papa!" Cerise hollered running over to Muffin, "Hehe, yes Cerise?" Muffin asked, "Look!" Cerise held a frog in his hand/paw, "I see, where did you find it?" Muffin asked smiling at his six-year-old child. "Over there! there's a creek!" Cerise chirped happily. Carson pet his child's head lovingly, Cerise tilted his head into it purring softly, (pfft Wolf's purring. I'm the only one who found that funny I know.) "Wanna come play with me, Mama?" Cerise asked he was sitting like a dog, understandable since he is a Wolf. "I don't see why not," Carson answered standing up and walking with son over to the creek, "Don't hurt yourselves!" Muffin called after them, "We won't!" Carson replied.

Encre walked out of the castle doors. He saw Muffin laying in the grass, and heard giggling over the creek.

Encre POV

Hm, it's that guard again. What was his name again? Muffin! That was it!

I walk over and sit next to him. I took a deep breath. I heard a loud splash over at the creek, Muffin jolted up and looked over worried. His child was on the ground laughing while his wife was soaked. I couldn't help but giggle, "Love you okay?" Muffin called to them, "Yes! Your child pushed me into the water!"

"Atta boy!"

I burst out laughing. Muffin turned to me, "You having fun Monsieur Encre?" He asked with a small chuckle, "I will never tell!" I replied. He snickered.

I got into my bag and pulled out my pencils and sketchbook. I flipped through the pages until I got to an empty one. I began to draw making small talk with Muffin. His wife walked over still dripping, he slumped down next to Muffin, "I don't believe I got your name the last time we met." I said leaning forward to make eye contact with Muffin's wife. "Oh, I believe not. My name is Carson." He replied putting his hand out. I shook his hand, "Encre. I'm trying to be noisy but, how did you both end up together?" I asked curious of how a Mortal like myself and Skele-Wolf could end up married. That kind of scenario doesn't happen often. "How Carson and I met....Damn that was a long time ago.." Muffin replied, "But I remember like it was yesterday..."

{Flashback}

Muffin POV

I walked through the forest on all fours like a dog, which in some ways I am. I heard....Crying? I perked up my head and my ears twitched at the noise. I walked towards the noise, "They'll come back *hic* I know they will. I-it's not my fault I'm mortal. Th-they wouldn't abandon me....Would they?" I peeked around a tree and saw a boy, he looked around 11-12 years old, close to my age. He was crying. Who was he talking about?

I walked forward, 'Are you okay?" I asked him. He jumped and backed up, "I-I'm fine *hic*! P-please! Don't hurt me!" He answered/begged, "Why would I hurt you?" I tilted my head to the side confused on why he would say that, 'B-because *sniff* you're a wolf. D-don't wolves despise mortals?" I shook my head. We both stared at each other in confusion for a bit. He stood up, but his leg seemed to be injured to he fell back down with a whimper. "Are you okay?' I asked walking closer, "Muffin what are you doing?" A familiar voice asked. I heard a rustle then something hit the ground, the mortals eyes went to the size of saucers, he looked petrified.

I turn around, 'Lord Fallacy! I just found this mortal, that's all!" I trotted over to Fallacy and stood by his leg. He pets my head gently, I leaned into it purring softly (still find it funny XD), "what's your name mortal?" Fallacy asked turning towards the boy around my age. "*Gulp* C-Carson, m-monsieur." 'Carson' answered. 'I see, what's a mortal like yourself doing in MY forest?" Lord Fallacy spoke strict, but soft at the time. He knew the mortal was scared, "M-my parents, t-they left m-me here..." He answered sniffling. "Do you know where they went?"

Carson shook his head. He crisscrossed his legs and put his hands in his lap. Fallacy walked over to Carson and bent in front of him, "No need to fear, I will not harm you. As long as Muffin here says your safe I have no issue." Fallacy smiled kindly and put his hand out to Carson. Carson hesitantly took it and Fallacy lifted the two of them to their feet. I gulped, Fallacy rarely trusted me with judgement of characters. I always assume everyone's good unless they prove otherwise. So why was he trusting me now?

"Come with me." Fallacy said swiftly turning, "O-okay" Carson replied fearfully, he followed on his heels, I was close to Lord Fallacy's side.

We walk back to the village, Carson notices one of the village boys, he looked around his age. "Brother!" he shouted, the boy turned to him, his eyes went wide. Carson rushed over hugging the young vampire. I could make out their conversation from where I was standing, "Carson!? What in the name of the king are you doing!? Mother separated us for a reason!! You could be killed!"
"Yes, I know Cilvester, but I CAME with the king. And, Father...Abandoned me in the forest. I would have died either way."

"But you're in FAR more danger in the village! You're a MORTAL amongst countless VAMPIRES!! Have you lost your mind?"

"*huff* I thought you'd be happy to see your TWIN BROTHER! But I guess not!"
Carson crossed his arms and looked down. He looked hurt, "Of course I'm happy to see you, Carson! But I'm a VAMPIRE and you're MORTAL it's not even legal for us to be related! Much less twins! *sigh* Just please be safe, I don't want to loose you."

'Cilvester' hugged Carson, "I've survived around vampires this long. Whose to sat I can't handle myself." Carson smiled up at his brother,"You shrieked the first time you saw my fangs. Real brave there Brother." Cilvester said with a blank face (ahem, you mean a resting bitch face Muffin),"Shush! Mortals are raised to fear you ya know?" Carson smirked, I couldn't help but snicker. I noticed Fallacy walking away, I went to follow him like the loyal canine I am.

He put his hand in front of my "snout" I stopped abruptly, "no Muffin, for the next few days your assignment is to make sure that mortal stays safe. Alright?" Fallacy stated/asked, I nodded and trotted over to Carson, "Uh, Muffin, was it? What are you doing?" Carson asked Cilvester looked at me in awe, "Lord Fallacy said to make sure you stay safe for the next few days.' I stated, "You're King Fallacy's guard." Cilvester stated, his eyes stars (How cute!) I nodded.

{Flashback End}

"I see, wiat, does that mean Plume is your nephew?" Encre asked, "He is! god I love that shy little guy!" Carson said looking of into the distance. "That also means twins were different species, how does that work?" Encre pondered, "Oh! My father was mortal while my mother was vampire, I took after Father while my brother took after Mother. And I married a wolf, and gave birthe to a wolf. So that also means cousins are different species. Strange isn't it?" Carson answered, 'Very." Encre stated, "Encre! Love where are you?" Fallacy called from the cadtle door, "Ah! Coming Mon Cheri!" Encre repleid grabbing his things and runing to Fallacy, who kissed his forehead once he got in front of him.
