Red String - ABO Au - Destiel and Michifer

Chapter 77

"You are not welcome here Witch!" Chuck snarled, quit opposite of the King's usual demeanor.

"Not Welcome? Not Welcome! Ha!" Rowena cackled brushing red curls from her face "Dear boy if I wasn't welcome, then you wouldn't toy with Fate! You wouldn't tease with Destiny! Dear stupud Angel, if it weren't for me you never would've found Happiness with the late Queen!"

"You keep her name off your lips wench!" Chuck's wings ruffled, eyes wild as he pushed past wedding goers to stand before Rowena, but maintained a little distance

"Why? It is my Gods given gift to help you lot out. I see by this unholy ceremony, the pain you've caused ignoring Destiny! Fate is not to be trifled with Charles! I told you this all those years ago. Why is your son marrying this blood covered and miserable Omega?" The Witch asked throwinh a hand in Dean's direction "That isn't how I told you it was supposed to be." She added casting Dean a look of pity

Dean looked up from where he was still straddling the bloody remains of the once powerful Alpha Queen of Hell.
"What is that supposed to mean?" The Prince huffed forcing himself to his feet, bloody dagger gripped in his hand as he looked at Rowena and then Chuck in turn

"Michael was supposed to-"

"Enough of you witch!" Chuck cut her off, taking a step forward when Michael placed a firm hand on his father's chest, hiding the Witch from his father's view with his wings

"Let her speak father." He hissed taking a stern look and tone with his father

"Thank you." Rowena smiled as Michael lowered his wings
"As you all know there is a law, an ancient law placed by the beginning of time, a True Mates Law!" She announced making her way up the couple of stairs to stand before everyone on the alter. Long purple gown barely brushing the floor as rhe Omega Witch held the attention of every person there, wedding goers and demon soldiers. "Witches are blessed with Magic, something angels and demons can almost possess, and Humans think they can." She continued even though she was a human herself. "Years ago, having a Witch Reveal Ones True Mate was normal, encouraged."

Dean stumbled a little, on shakey legs, he was swiftly caught by Castiel, the Angel's hand rest heavy on his lower back, concern danced in those blue eyes, one of his wings stretched out behind Dean, a few feathers flitted to the ground, Dean was immediately worried about that and the gash across Castiel's cheek and part of his neck. The Prince did not have time to worry as his vision swam, nausea taking over, he gdabbed Castiel's free hand to steady himself, bloody nladee clattering to his feet.
"I'm alright. I'm alright." Dean assured the Alpha with a gentle hand to Castiel's chest, the Angel's beating heart heavy under his fingertips. Dean's eyes met the concern swimming in Castiel's, wishing to drown in those seas forever.

"If you're sure Dean." Castiel whispered low, warm strong hand still resting on rhe Omega's lower back, wing still stretched behind him

Dean only nodded, keeping one hand on Castiel's chest, the other still gripping the demon blood soaked dagger. The freckled and blood splattered Prince simply hummed his response, eyes traveling back to thw demanding Omega Witch that held the entire room in enraptured silence.

"Nearly twenty years ago the King of Heaven banned me after I revealed his own True Mate, because his old world views couldn't comprehend who his eldest and crowned Prince son was destined to be with! He could not wrap his small mind around the idea, the truth that his Alpha son was destined to he with another Alpha. Doing everything in his power to prevent Fate from having her carefully designed way." Rowena continued fixing her skirt, turning to look over the blood coated and terrified crowd of people of all races and designations, that simply wanted to attend the bringing together of Kingdoms for the first time in hundreds of years.

Michael's wings dropped a smudge, the ends of his blood speckled white feathers dusting the flower petal covered carpet of rhe center aisle, the tips of his feathers dipping in blood as a pen in ink. His eyes watered, scent burning with anger and pain. Burnt cinnamon and wet paper ruined his usually calm and peaceful scent, eyes turning to his father, Chuck's mouth opened and closed like a fish out of water, grasping for something convincing to tell his eldest son
"Is that true?" Despite the anger that filled Michael, his voice came out that of a scared young boy, a whispered question through the answer rang clear in the Witche's loud announcement and thick Scottish accent.

Chuck snapped his mouth shut, grey and white whinga raising with anger, his hands were shaking, his face burning red
"No law can condone such a union! An Alpha with an Alpha is a mating of abomination! I've tried so-so hard to make you see that Betas and Omegas are what you're supposed to like! You're an Alpha you're supposed to be with an Omega!" Chuck screeched shaking his head "Fate, Destiny, it's all a lie! I lost my supposed True Mate! So the idea that yours is some Alpha Idiot General is absurd and Ludicrous!" The King's chest was heaving, voice high with rage, eyes glossed over with angry tears

"Are you serious?" Michael barely whispered, silent tears streamed from his eyes "You told me I was messed up and wrong! You told me I would get over it! You told me it was an unnatural phase! Told me I had to try harder!" Michael's voice broke as his trust for his father did. The trust and loyalty he had for his father had been cracking for a while, he tried to fill the cracks by stopping the questioning of his father's decisions. Afterall a parent knows what's best and it's better the child doesn't question it.
He had been dreadfully wrong
"Did you put Raphael up to challenging me? You did nothing to stop the duel, could you have?!" Michael's voice rose as did his wings, fingers tightening around the blade of his still flaming sword.

Chuck made an offending noise
"What? You think I wanted you two to fight? You think I wanted to lose another child? Clearly you are delusional past your attraction to Lucifer!"

Raising his flaming sword to point at his father, Michael narrowed his eyes through the tears
"Answer the fucking Question."

"How dare you speak to your King and foremost your father what way!" Chuck screeched eyes darting to various people in the room seeking back up.

"Answer his Question." John spoke up officially done with the Angel King. The Human Alpha growled

"Fine! Yes I could've stopped Raphael! But I did not put him against you! Abaddon did! I let the duel happen because I wanted to see for myself which of you would be better fit to rule this Kingdom I-"

"Shut up."

"I needed to see who would be a better leader I-"

"I said shut up!" Michael roared swinging his blade closer to his father, the flaming tip just far enougj from the Kings face not to burn his beard "The blood of my brother is on my hands because of you! The man I love is near dead because of you! Dean was kidnapped and tortured because of this foolish wedding when you knew-YOU KNEW what Fate wanted!"
