Ryker: HEY LOOK A SEQUEL
Okay, I said I would post it in a week but here's a fun story:
My dad, at 3 am, woke me up with his loud hacking because of his migraine. Thus, my trip has been delayed a few hours and I have time to post this new story!
The universe coursed through his veins as he sat with his legs crossed and eyes closed. His head pounded as he focused on one objective. He could feel the beads of sweat trickle down his brow. In one swift jolt, he did it. The window unlocked and he climbed down the castle walls using a tree that hung low enough for him to reach the ground.
He caught up with the three people that were waiting for him. They all had their arms crossed with their feet tapping.
"Sorry I'm late," he huffed out breaths.
"Mama will be mad," his sister growled.
"Oh, like Mama will notice," he brushed it off.
The four of them began to walk until something chilled them to the very core.
"Bellamy von Bielefeld-Shibuya!" It was his mother, "You too Yuri von Bielefeld-Shibuya!"
"Oh no, he said your full name," his cousins snickered until their parents stood behind the blonde man.
"You think you're off the hook Andrew Weller-Gurrier?" it was the blonde's older brother.
Then, the scariest of them all, the tallest and oldest of the three brothers, "Vincent von Voltaire." was all he had to say to make the boy quiver in his boots.
"H-hey Dad," Vinny cracked a nervous smile until he felt the earth shift underneath him and he clung to Andrew. The brunette boy held his little cousin close to him as everyone took one step back to single out Bellamy.
"Bell how many times have I told you that your lesson is important?" Wolfram barked at his son, "I swear, you don't understand what dangers lurk out there!"
"Sorry Mother!" Bell spat, "But you can't keep me locked up in that castle for the rest of my life!"
"Don't you use that tone with me!"
"Just because you lost your baby because of me doesn't mean I have to follow you like a dog!" Bell yelled out of blind rage.
Wolfram snapped, he loathed it when his son would use that card on him. Sometimes, Wolf felt like Bellamy's gift was more of a curse. He cringed as he remembered the sheer pain of losing a baby and permanently mixing up his womb. His hand went to his stomach and rubbed the tender scar.
"That's it," Wolfram let out a steady breath, "You are grounded, I don't even care what your father says. You are to sort papers, help the maids, and do garden work, do I make myself clear?"
Bellamy scoffed in upsetment at his mother's words, "But Mama that's so not fair!"
"I think it's perfectly fair saying as you blame my caring for you over a tragedy such as that."
Bellamy stomped away from his mother with the other kids behind him. He knew he was wrong and he could sense the pain that flared up in his mother's eyes. Yet, he still blamed himself for the loss of his little sister all those years ago.
Wolfram counted to ten in his head to calm himself as he turned around to walk past his brothers. The two men remembered the sensitivity of the subject Bellamy brought up. They could still see Wolfram's bloody figure around a little Bell while the child sobbed and begged for his mother to open his eyes.
"Stop thinking about it," Wolfram snapped them out of their memory, "That's in the past."
"Wolfram, we-"
"Conrad, I said it's in the past," the blonde hissed, "Let's not talk about it."
Yuuri was in his office with his son sitting in the corner reading a book. The blonde boy lounged across a chair and took on a rather unapproachable exterior. The child preferred his mother more than his father, which Yuuri couldn't understand why. The boy's eyes were dark, like Yuuri's, but his hair was a golden blonde just like Wolfram's.
"Alexander," Yuuri called to his son and the boy looked up, "How about you and I go for a walk around the gardens?"
"Not interested," he opened the book again and stuck his nose deep in the pages.
Alexander von Bielefeld-Shibuya was the child from Wolfram's second pregnancy. He is five years younger than his siblings and he sticks by Wolfram's side. He was twelve years old in human years and all Yuuri wanted was for his son to love him.
Wolfram walked into the room with a swift stance. He held his breath to keep back any unwanted emotions from leaking out. Alex saw his mother and leaped out of seat and abandoned his book. The boy hugged Wolfram.
"Hello Mama!" he smiled.
"Good afternoon Alexander," Wolfram rubbed his son's blonde head, "Do you mind giving your father and I some time?"
Alexander nodded and trotted out of the room obediently. Yuuri leaned back in his chair and groaned at how easily his son follows Wolfram's directions.
Wolfram pulled a chair right next to Yuuri. He punched the wooden desk with all his might as his teeth pierced through his bottom lip slightly. He could taste the tangy metallic flavor fill his taste-buds.
"Wolfram?" Yuuri gasped as he grabbed his husband's hand.
"I swear," Wolfram growled, "Bellamy needs to learn his place."
Yuuri sighed, "What happened this time?"
It wasn't uncommon for Bell to fight with Wolf. The two had monstrous amounts of passion and emotion that they can feed off of, especially Bell. Ever since that incident, Bell and Wolfram had never been the same. Bell lashed out at his mother more and eventually shut Wolfram out completely. It took Aleksei, Yuri, Alexander, Yuuri, Andrew, Vincent, and Greta to get Bell back and speaking to Wolfram. Even Bell's best friend, Jay von Wincott, was no match for Bell's emotions.
Wolfram's fist tightened to where his nails stabbed into his hands, "H-he said that it was his fault that I lost the baby and that I'm smothering him."
"Hey, you know that it was no one's fault except for the criminal with that sword," Yuuri pulled his husband into a hug as Wolfram couldn't hold back his tears and he blubbered out a sob.
The double black climbed onto his husband's lap and straddled his thighs so he could tuck Wolfram under his chin. He hushed the boy gently.
"I can't help b-bu-but feel like I lost more than just the baby that night," Wolf squeaked out, "My little boy hates me!"
"No Wolf, Bell loves you so much," Yuuri tried to cheer up his husband.
"Then why does he always skip the small talk and go straight for the kill?" Wolf choked out as he looked up at his lover, "It's not just that, I hate how people keep reminding me about the event that happened 76 years ago (10 human years). I get it, I can't have a baby ever again! I understand it's tragic, but why can't we move past it? Why does it follow us everywhere we go? C-can't people understand t-that it h-hurt-ts?"
"I know, I know," Yuuri whispered as he tightened his grip on the blonde.
Wolfram cried until his tears had run dry. Told Yuuri that he was tired and would miss dinner. Yuuri had no choice but to nod as the blonde retreated to their room.
Aleksei laid in bed twisted around satin brown sheets. His children were off at their lessons which left him and his husband all alone for an entire afternoon. That was nearly unheard of with soon to be five children running around his feet. He waited for Gwendal to return since he was called out for an emergency.
When Aleksei moved back into the castle, everything felt so tense. Through his eyes, everyone was out to get him. He did betray the King. The first week, he would waltz around each corner with so much caution he could've been police tape.
Vinny adored the castle though. He loved spending time with Gwendal and his older cousins. He taught them how to catch a fish with their bare hands and they taught him how to avoid lessons.
A month after they moved into the castle and Gwendal married Aleksei, Vinny asked if he could have a sibling, like Yu and Bell. Aleksei turned bright red at the question and he said 'maybe' which turned out to be a 'yes' since he was pregnant at the time. Gwendal and Aleksei did not wait around to mark their territory. Thus, little Beatrix was born.
After her was the birth of her little sister, Cara. Then their other daughter, Ivy. Cara was five years younger than Vinny and the most well behaved. Then Ivy is four years younger than Cara.
Lastly, Aleksei was expecting a fifth child, though he's only a month along, he and Gwendal were so excited to be parents of another baby girl.
Gwendal stormed into the room after the fiasco with the older teens outside. He trudged up to the bed and crawled under the covers. He rested his head gently on Aleksei's stomach and let out a heavy sigh.
"Careful, if you sigh like that you'll get another wrinkle and the baby might think you're her grandfather," Aleksei teased with concern. He began to play with Gwendal's long silver locks. "What's wrong?"
"Vinny was out with Bell, Yu, and Andrew again. He skipped lesson again," he groaned, "Did we do something wrong?"
"No silly!" Aleksei chuckled, "That's just how teenagers work. Weren't you a teenager before?"
Gwendal scoffed, "Yeah, but by that time I had two younger brothers to look after while my mother went to Shinou knows where."
Aleksei lulled at Gwendal's pout as he basked in the glory of happiness. He was finally happy.
"Mom!" Yozak flinched when he heard his eldest son call for him.
The spy could sense the trouble already as he heard the two sets of feet stamped at the door. He suddenly wished he was whisked away to a mission and avoid this conflict with his only son and loving husband.
Yozak and Conrad had long decided that one child was enough for them to be happy. It's not like they didn't try for another baby, Yozak couldn't seem to get pregnant and neither could Conrad, so they settled with Andrew.
The brunette boy barged into the kitchen which was where Yozak hid when he wanted to be alone. Andrew had the most gorgeous baby blue eyes that could kill with one glance.
"Mom!" Andrew yelled which made Yozak jump, "Dad is being completely unfair."
"How is grounding you unfair? Your cousin was grounded," Conrad sighed.
"Hold on, what happened?" Yozak asked as he swayed over to Conrad.
"Andrew was caught skipping lesson and leaving castle grounds with Bell, Yu, and Vincent," the brunette answered, "And deliberately after Wolfram said that Bell must undergo his special training."
"Well Kiddo," Yozak gave his son a smirk, "You could always come on a mission with me, I'm sure you'll love the frilly pink dress I picked out for you."
Andrew grimaced at the thought, "I'd rather take being grounded."
"That's my boy!" the orange haired man cheered as he shooed his son away.
Conrad sighed once more as he goes to kiss Yozak. The two barely had time together since Gwendal sent Yozak on more missions after Wolfram got injured. Aleksei quickly picked up the slack of Wolfram since Aleksei was a trained fighter, but with him having so many babies it really left Yozak.
"How about you and me later try on that dress I mentioned before," Yozak grabbed Conrad's rear end as an unsubtle hint.
"Whatever you want Dear," Conrad smiled.
At dinner, everyone sat at the round wooden table which had been replaced with a larger table for the entire family. Bell, overwhelmed with guilt, slunk into the room which he noticed his mother's seat empty.
"Papa," Bell walked over to Yuuri, "Where's Mama?"
"He was tired so he went to bed early," Yuuri replied to the boy.
Bell let out a shaky breath and suddenly lost his appetite. He looked over at Yu, 'I'm going to go check on Mama, stay here and cover for me?' he asked telepathically.
She nodded at him.
The young Prince ran over to his mother's room. He knelt by the wooden door and focused on the aura of the person inside. Since he was so close to Wolfram, it wasn't very hard for him to link up emotionally.
He quickly closed the link when he was stabbed with an intense feeling of shame. Bell's heart raced from the emotion and his hands shook as he opened the door. He could barely walk into the room that was littered in toxic mental dust. He gritted his teeth as he trudged into the room. It felt like a current pushed him back as he tried to reach his mother.
Bell ended up at the side of the bed panting like he had ran a marathon. His brow was moist with sweat while he put one hand on his heart.
"Bellamy?" Wolfram turned over in his bed and sat up, "Honey what's wrong?"
Bell didn't say anything and threw himself into his mother's arms knocking over Wolfram. He squeezed the man in his arms and tried to hug away the negativity. He could remember the happy aura that they used to share when he was a little kid. It was always so warm and inviting, he missed it.
"I'm sorry," he cried into his mother's chest.
"Sorry for what?" Wolf asked out of pure curiosity.
"It hurts!" Bell squeaked out, "Your emotions hurt!" Wolfram wanted to pry his child off of him to sooth him. "I hurt you! It was my fault that you're in such pain!"
"Bell, don't be ridiculous," Wolfram scoffed, "You have done nothing to hurt me-"
"What I said earlier," he brought up that moment, "I was just upset. I don't really mean it. I'm so sorry Mama!"
"I love you, my little one," Wolfram kissed his son's forehead, "Aren't you hungry?"
"No," Bell lied. He was starving.
"That's a lie," Wolf patted Bellamy on the back to tell him to get up, "We are going to go eat dinner with everyone."
He took his son by the hand and dragged him back into the dining room where some sort of steak and potatoes were served. Bell took his place next to his sister and brother while Wolfram sat next to the Maoh.
"I thought you weren't hungry," Yuuri leaned over and whispered in Wolfram's ear.
"I feel better now," Wolf kissed Yuuri's cheek.
The hooded figures stared around a crystal ball that showed the events from before. The aura around Bell was blue and sparkly. The five people around the ball were mumbling to each other about this phenomenon.
"How unusual," the youngest of the group admired.
"Hush," the one next to the small one snapped, "That is Bellamy von Bielefeld-Shibuya. He was born with an peculiar amount of telepathic powers after giving all of his powers up. He is a mystic and we need to know how he obtained such power. We can harness it and enslave humans and Mazoku alike."
"Bellamy is kind of cute~" The middle one squeaked, "Can I keep him as a pet?"
"Of course, once we suck out his powers, he'll be all yours," the biggest smiled, "Just don't break him too much, he will be our ticket to royalty in the new world. With a face as beautiful as his, there is no doubt that he will be a King someday."
"Actually, his twin sister is the next in line for the throne, not him," The smallest sighed, "She is also quite the catch and has an immense amount of both water and fire magic. The twin's younger brother has the Bielefeld fire magic."
"Great," the second middle one crossed their arms over their chest, "Now, how do you propose we get these powers? While we have an army, so do they. Plus, with Bellamy being a witch, it makes them more of a threat. We cannot plant one of our own in there after Aleksei Hallows already done that, they will be less likely to fall for it twice."
"Don't worry," the biggest cackled, "I have an idea."
Ryker: OKAY! What do you guys think of it?
Meet Alexander: if you have read my other stories, you would know that before Wolfram got hurt he had another baby which is Yu and Bell's little brother. He is very much like Wolfram, nearly an exact replica of him. He holds back all of his traits that he got from Yuuri because, well, Alex is a little jerk. ALSO Alexander is named after Aleksei.
Meet Vinny: From the last story, but he's more grown up. He's a good kid that has a soft spot for cute things. Bell is just a bad influence on him.
Meet Andrew: The only son of Yozak and Conrad. He is the oldest of his cousins and he holds himself like Conrad. He thinks of Bell and Yu as his younger siblings
