After the wedding was concluded everyone went to their rooms for the night. The next morning Shippou was the first to wake up getting out of bed which was a challenge to do so without waking the twins.
This was a challenging task because the twins were fully entangled with him. But he eventually managed to get out of bed successfully. Quickly getting dressed and leaving the room he then headed for the library for some quiet time to read.
For the next three hours Shippou enjoyed the tranquility of the morning to himself. Eventually he smelled food cooking, closing the book he was reading but not before marking his spot. Leaving the library and heading for the kitchen by the time he made it there he was the last to arrive.
Sitting down with his husbands who gave him a scornful look of anger. Shying away from their gaze and resumed eating.
"So, you are just going to ignore us honey." They said in unison.
"No, I just figured that you would want to sleep from the huge party we had last night celebrating our wedding and it wanted to get some reading in before breakfast."
"We could've joined you?" Added Hakkaku.
"Maybe next time."
"What about after breakfast?" Inquired Ginta.
"Maybe." Said Shippou.
Going back to eating, the mated pairs began feeding their mates romantically. Suddenly the phone rang, and Scott got up answering it with a hello.
"Hey Scott, this is Jordan, Stiles' stepfather. He and his mates wanted me to ask you if you're and the castle are willing to go to the beach with us later today at noon?"
"I would be delighted to just give me a moment to ask them."
Turning to the others.
"Hey everyone, would you all like to go to the beach later today as a group and have a lazy day swimming?"
Without hesitation everyone nodded.
"Hey, Jordan we are a go."
"Splendid see you then."
"Yep."
Scott hung up the phone and the group went back to eating. Twenty minutes later, they got up and left. Beside Sesshomaru and Shippou who stayed behind and to clean up and prepare picnic baskets for everyone.
An hour later, with the kitchen and dining room cleaned up and baskets prepared, they too left for their rooms to pack for the picnic as well. Once everyone was packed they loaded up the cars with the supplies and went back inside the castle to rest.
Three hours later, alarms went off for 11am. Quickly everyone got changed into swimwear and downed shorts and shirts. Leaving their rooms and then leaving the castle not before grabbing the baskets.
Piling up into the cars and starting them up and heading to their destination. Forty-five minutes later, they arrived at the beach then parked and grabbed the baskets, coolers, towels, and umbrellas.
Going down to the beach with luggage in hand, searching for the four. Eventually after five minutes of searching they found them and joined them. Placing their luggage on the sand and setting up the umbrellas.
Sitting down and then relaxed.
"Hey y'all we are glad that you decided to come." Said Stiles.
"Yes, thanks for the invite." Added Jackson.
"Anytime." Admitted Derek. Stiles and I were about to head in the water. Who is up for a swim?"
A few hands were raised while the others were too busy basking in the sun. Sesshomaru, Shippou, Ethan, Derek, Stiles, Jackson, Jordan, Ginta and Hakkaku removed their shoes, shirts and shorts and ran towards the water jumping in.
While rest finished setting up everything. By the time the rest had set up the area they group had returned for refreshments and once left again. Eventually Peter and Chris joined in leaving Scott and Inuyasha with the kids.
Three hours later, the group once again returned but as they were returning Stiles was in complete fear and anger. Smelling the scent of a chimera, the same species that caused his father's death.
Derek and Ethan noticed their husband trembling with fear and anger. Going over to him to see what caused it.
"What is wrong babe you don't look well, and your scent radiates fear and anger?" Asked Derek.
Stiles pointed to a boy his age that is not too far from them.
"What about him?" Inquired Ethan.
"He is a chimera. The same species that caused my father's death." Added Stiles.
"How can you tell he smells like a normal human?"
"Look closer with your wolf eyes and see the creature within him."
Both Derek and Ethan do what Stiles suggested and the moment that they do what they see astounded them. They saw the inner beast within the boy, a giant lizard. Not to mention the power that radiates from him.
Assure Stiles that he is safe and not harm will come to him while they are here. Not only that the boy's scent doesn't discern any evil but calm and serenity. Without realizing it they were being approached by the chimera.
Since he recognized Scott and Inuyasha.
"Hey guys, it has been a while since we last saw each other."
"Corey, how are you doing?" Said Scott.
"I am great but how are you and who are these adorable little pups?"
"We are amazing since we visited Japan and to answer your question these are our sons Rafael and Inutashio named after our fathers.
"Aw they are so cute can I hold them?"
"Sure."
Corey bent down and picked up the boys who quickly nuzzled into Corey's chest emitting a purring growl.
"They like you. So what brings you to the states?"
"Well since my boyfriend moved here I thought I should too."
"Really who is your boyfriend?"
Before they got an answer they heard a familiar voice calling out.
"Babe we are about to eat lunch oh and hey guys it has been a while?"
"Souta hey small world I guess everyone decided to go to the beach today?"
"I guess so." Said Souta with a laugh. But anyway, Corey why don't give back the boys and we can go eat I am starving.
Corey handed the twins to Scott with a wink and then ran over to Souta picking him up in a bridal carry.
The rest of the castle group went to sit down and also refresh and eat as well. An hour later, with bellies filled and bodies refreshed they all went to the water this time. Four hours later, Scott noticed that the twins had started to fall asleep.
Picking them up and cradling them in their arms. Bringing both of them to the cradle and placed them inside.
"Thanks for the invite but it is time for me and my mate to head back." Said Inuyasha.
"You're welcome boys and goodnight." Added Jordan.
After bidding their goodbyes the group also packed up their belongings and headed for the cars. Hopping inside and starting them up then drove off. Forty-five minutes later, they returned to the castle and clambered out of the vehicles.
Grabbing the supplies and heading inside the castle. Dropping the baskets off in the kitchen and coolers as well. Shippou stayed behind with his husbands to put away the leftovers and clean out the coolers while everyone went to their rooms to shower and go to bed.
Twenty minutes later, they finished their tasks and then went to their room as well to shower and go to bed.
