Gabriel paused in the doorway to his room and tilted his head at Michael
"Castiel is in here with me. He fell asleep." He said simply as the shorter Alpha closed his brightly painted gold and black door.

Michael simply nodded and sighed
"Is he alright? He was rather angry  when I told him of Dean's disappearance, and then I only made matters worse by treating him like a child." Michael explained as he ran a hand through his hair, his gold crown in his free hand, feathers unkept

"He'll be alright." Gabriel smiled patting Michael's arm "Wanna come in my room? I have hot coco and donuts..." Gabriel smiled up at his older brother

With a light chuckle Michael nodded and followed Gabriel into his room. Castiel was asleep on his stomach, on one of the two couches that Gabriel had before the fire, one arm and a wing hung limp over the side onto the floor, the other wing over the back of the couch, arm tucked back beside him, feet over the arm rest, and a fluffy blanket over him.

Michael sighed as he flopped into an armchair, a few pure white feathers fluffed and fluttered to the ground, he buried his face in his hands and groaned
"I need to get a search party out immediately. Father needs to be informed, and I just-" Michael looked up as Gabriel's hand rested on his shoulder

"You need to take a deep breath Brother."

Michael relaxed slightly and yawned before shaking his head for the millionth time that day.
"Listen Michael, I will go find Lucifer and we will get a search party going within the hour, you, get comfortable and try to sleep. You can even sleep here if you'd like."

All Michael did was nod, now that he was sitting he felt the exhaustion of the day kicking in and as much as he hated it he felt his eyes droop shut and he head fall back against the chair.
All Gabriel did was smile and put a blanket over his older brother with a soft smile. If only Michael and Castiel knew how the other felt about this marriage. Than maybe a new arrangement could be drawn up... With a heavy sigh Gabriel exited the room making it quickly down the many hallways until he reached the quarters where all of the guards slept when not on a night patrol.

Gabriel stopped in front of the door he had been looking for, an undecorated door, as were all the doors, but the simple white lettering reading the Angel's name and rank;
Lucifer Pellegrino -
Alpha -
Archangel -
General

Gabriel knocked a few times, in a urgent kind of tone. Wings lifted slightly and chin up to make the short Alpha seem just a bit bigger.
The door opened to a sleepy and fuzzy headed Alpha, blood and pink colored wings in a fluffed mess and a scowl on his face
"This better be fucking- Your Highness." He paused with a slight bow as he saw one of the Princes before him "To what do I owe the pleasure Gabriel?" Lucifer's face softened as he looked at the younger Prince. Honestly Lucifer really liked Gabriel, he was a troublemaking kid and Lucifer found it hilarious. He had taught the blond Prince many tricks as the boy grew up and it was in fact a treat to see him, though a bit concerning at such a late hour

"It's about the Omega Prince. May I come in to speak with you privately?" Gabriel looked up at Lucifer with a steady and serious whiskey gaze, something the Prince rarely had.

"Of course." Lucifer opened the door further and moved so that the four winged golden Alpha could step in and with a quick glance down the hallway Lucifer closed the door
"What is it? You're never this serious and if it has something to do with Michael's future Mate... What did the freckled jackass do?" Lucifer grumbled before sitting in a chair across from Gabriel whom remained standing beside a second chair.

Gabriel raised a hand for Lucifer to relax and sighed
"He's missing."

Lucifer's feathers fluffed up and a growl rumbled his chest
"Tht little dick ran-"

"He was kidnapped."

Lucifer snapped his mouth shut. So the Omega kid hadn't gotten cold feet and took off...
"Are you sure?" Lucifer asked leaning forward, his wings flapped a couple of times to get the feathers to relax.

"I'm sure." Gabriel said solemnly with a frown as the Alpha finally sat down across from Lucifer

Lucifer stood and grumbled under his breath
"If you're sure than I will get a few men and personally locate the Prince." Lucifer said as he grabbed the long smooth silver blade he owned and his boots. Sitting down he began to shove his boots back on as he looked up at Gabriel "Where was the last you saw him?"

Gabriel shook his head again with a frown and a sigh
"He was seen last heading to his room. Supposedly he had requested dinner alone in his room as his heat was coming on a little bit today." Gabriel looked up at Lucifer as he continued "If he was indeed taken by an Alpha as Michael said the scent in the hall outside his room indicated, then... Lucifer this could be bad. Any Alpha with a twisted mind would take advantage of an Omega in heat, and unmated. Not to mention the Alpha could get away with it as Omega's aren't always exactly reliable sources, as they are seen as breeding tools." Gabroel practically spit the word put with a grimace as if they had left a bad taste in his mouth "Heat or not wr cannot allow anything to happen to the Prince. He is our King's future husband, and the soon to be mate of my brother, please find him Lucifer."

Lucifer stood as he had been getting ready as Gabriel explained the situation.
"I promise Gabriel. I'll find the Prince for you, for Michael." He said softly with a slight smile, a hand on the shorter Alpha's shoulder "Go take care of Michael and make sure the dumbass sleeps. I will find his Omega."
And as much as it hurt, Lucifer meant those words.
