All of us appear back to the same place where I made the portal. I put Bastet in my purse and I take Rogebd in my arms like a toddler. Digaco climbs over my shoulder where he stays the entire walk back home.

I bite my lower lip as I look up to find a confused Jin looking at me from the window. His gaze pins on the little house-elf in my arms. She looks at him afraid before burying her head in my shoulder.

"Rogebd, you don't have to be afraid of him," I coo hair, trying to calm her down.

When I look up again, Jin is nowhere to be seen.

I go inside the house. Rogebd looks around curiously. I let her down to explore.

Jin's heavy footsteps sound all around the place. Rogebd scared hides behind me.

Jin stands in front of me deeply frowning. He looks mad.

I tilt my head confused until it hits me.

Freaking Karmeleytos left his scent all over me.

Jin walks closer to me. He starts to sniff me like a dog.

"You smell like a male elf," he says narrowing his eyes, waiting for an explanation.

I sigh. "Karmeleytos... he's like my older brother. We grew up together."

"I don't like it," he says upset. His gaze softens as he looks down at the new family member. "Who's that...?"

Rogebd looks at me scared.

"She's Rogebd. A house-elf." 

She looks at him unsure, but less afraid. "I only answer to my Mistress."

Jin's eyes widen at Rogebd's attitude. "Okay...?" Jin covers his forehead with his hand. "You just left a couple of hours..." he chuckles. "How do you always come back with someone new with you?"

I shrugged. "Magic."

He rolls his eyes. 

"Yah! Hyung!" Hoseok screams from afar. He runs towards us. His jaw drops down as he sees who is in my arms but after a couple of seconds, he turns to look at Jin. "The fairies are back at it."

Jin frowns. "What do you mean...?"

"They are in search of something... I think is a weapon, I don't know! The point is... they have started to look for it in other realms... the secret territories."

A chill runs down my spine.

It was just a matter of time.

Soon not only the fairies will be the only ones looking for it. Gremlins... goblins, and many others will too.

The wizards have had this for too long. The other creatures will soon believe that we are alive...

I collapse to the floor, still conscious.

I can't stay here much more time.

"I need to go," I mutter.

Jin and Hoseok look at me frowning. 

"What? No! You already left me!" Jin says whining.

Suddenly, something clicks in Jin's brain. I'm not sure what he just realized but I hope...

He covers his face with his hands, frustrated. "Don't tell me you have it..."

I take a deep breath. I look at Rogebd by the corner of my eye. "I don't... but I know where it is..."

"We need to go," Jin says.

I frown. "No! I'll go alone."

He looks at me with a dark gaze. "I'm not letting you go alone. You are in great danger and I'll protect you."

I stand up. "I can defend myself!" 

The gaze Jin sends me makes me get a chill. 

An intimidating gaze... a king's gaze. I didn't think Jin had it as he is such a softie but I was wrong...

I shut up right away...

He's my king, after all, ever since he marked, I became part of the pack.

Hoseok dazed off the entire time Jin and I were fighting. He was not scared, rather thinking about solutions.

"Mistress! I can carry your things-"

I smiled at her. "Rogebd, don't worry. I carry many things but I don't feel the weight." I open my purse showing her.

Her eyes brightened as she looked at the device.

"Only guardians have them..." she muttered.

I come from a long line of guardians... this purse is always passed down ever since our last name was born.

"I know what to do!" Hoseok screams out of nowhere startling everyone.

Jin is long gone though, I don't know where he is.

"You guys can go to talk to the vampire king and queen... Jimin and Miyoung."

I tilted my head. 

"We will need alleys. The weapon is your property, Amanda... but everyone will see it as the werewolves have it..." he explains.

I nodded. "Are the vampires amicable to werewolves?"

He laughs. "Yeah. We have a great relationship with them."

I sit on the co-pilot's seat with Rogebd sitting on my lap and the cats sleeping on the backseat.

Hoseok is staying at the castle to take over. Jin and I are going to go talk with the vampires.

It's been a long ride, but I can finally see the castle.

As soon as we get out of the car, a woman comes running out of the castle.

"Jin!" She greets happily as he runs towards him.

Why do I feel...? Weird... is this anger?
