Chapter Text

The younger trolls all stared on shock at the crying troll, until 'What do you mean dead' hissed out by Trickee, who was being tightly held by Ablaze, the pair were furious, but only being beaten out by Boom and Viva, who were trying to fight his way out Hype and Clays hold.

The royal family held a quite fury in their eyes, staring at the pair.

'I thought he was dead' John sobbed, flinching when Bruce wrapped his arm around him, 'Johnny' whispered Bruce 'what do you mean?'

John looked up exhausted at the group, he'd been regretting agreeing with Floyd and Bruce about taking Branch, he took two letters from his hair, the one from the tracker bug, and the one he found in the pod.

'I went back' he took a deep breath 'to the tree, I went back to Gramma's pod, and found it, it was horrible, it was grey, dried out, it was horrible' he shuddered as he remembered, 'it was odd, I searched the pod, aside from really think layer of dust, our old rooms were made up and tidy' he looked down, rubbing the fish pendant again ' Branch's room, it was' he choked squeezing the fish, his room looked like a tornado had been through everything was smashed, his books were torn apart, I found that old stuffed hedgehog he toted around and took with me.'

' , he was mine' Floyd voice wobbled with a small smile.

Bruce and Floyd looked at each other over John's head, 'Johnny?' He shook his head.

'What's that John?' Floyd asked as he caught the gold flash.

He looked up into the magenta eyes Floyd shared with their mama, he opened his paw and showed the room, 'do you remember when Branch was about 6 months old and was obsessed with finding out what all are names meant and he gave us presents that match them. It's the fish charm he gave me.' He gave a sad smile.

'it's why I agreed with Floyd and Bruce, about taking Branch, I even after I spoke to you both' he looked at the King and Queen, 'I remember what I agreed it was Branch's choice and it shouldn't have taken Clays deal for me to do it, I should have just signed them over', John looked towards Clay and Viva, 'I'm sorry Clay, I'm sorry to all of you, and I will apologise to Branch,ifhe want to speak to me ever'.


Tresillo stared at the trio in shock, he couldn't, the words filtered like syrup through his brain.

He looked at John, he seemed familiar to him a flicker of a memory, but fury was slowly replacing his thoughts,

His mate, his Ángel, his spitfire, his Branch was trapped because of ... his brain rebooted quickly, his ears pinned back as his eyes flickered red.

Marimba held Ligia and Cayo cuddling Tambora both were growling and intermittently nuzzling into their mates, who in turn were trying to comfort their respective alphas, while murmuring how much they loved them and would never let anyone harm them.

It was instantaneous, the moment Tresillo moved, his siblings and Kismet had everyone backed safely away from the Alphas rage.

The trio had tried to defend themselves but the reggaeton wasn't know as the most feared, with the deadliest reputation amongst the bounty hunters, it was well known amongst the family, that Tresillo rarely took bounties alone, but when he did they were cases like this, abductions, forced matings, the victims were always saved from the abductions, and the alphas who dared force an omega, the alpha never made it out alive.

The brothers suffered some serious injuries, to others had managed to get out of the room, and slowly bring out the injured alphas whom Tresillo was finished with.

Without Branch it took longer for them to calm down Tresillo down, causing Lownote to contact Rhythm and Blues in the labs, they had to knock him out, before taking to the medical centre to be looked over, far away from the three Brozone brothers, even unconscious if he scented them he started fighting the knock out medication.

The medical centre was monitoring through the night and happy his rage hormone was settling.


2 day post failed escape 1day before branchs birthday.

Branch trembled as Poppy left his bunker, three Betas guarded the main entrance now, no one but Poppy was allowed in now, and Branch was no longer allowed to leave the heat room, eat, he shuddered bathe without her, at least the collar was gone now, he rubbed at his throat.

He was exhausted she had kept him on edge of a triggered heat for the last two days, she kept touching him and he knew what she was doing, and this scared him.

He could smell it more now, the lilac undertone to his scent, he knew some omegas could be pupped outside of heat or unbonded, it explained why he had been feeling nauseous, the stomach cramps, how tender his chest had become, also why she was so fascinated with petting his waist, praising him, giving him various fabrics from Satin and Chenille's old pod now they escaped.

He was so tired of it all, he didn't want to wake up anymore, he wanted desperately to cry, but he felt like he used all his tears up.

No one would be able to find him, he only knew where he was because of the scent, he built the bunker, he knew every nook and root, and he was trapped in his heat room, the one room he only ever wanted to share with his Tesoro.

Branch burrowed into the softest section of his nest, he found it, the sections his kismet brothers had scented for him and cuddled into them, it felt a little like they were with him.

Feeling the presence smiling 'close your eyes ragazzo dolce, theirs someone important who wants to see you'

Branch did so, he felt sleepy all of a sudden and curled into the sheets, and closed his eyes.


A shimmery blue flashed behind his eyes, opening them, he looked around he was in a stone room, tapestries lined the wall, showing various scenes, with five trolls, who looked like his brothers in colouring at least, a wooden cradle was in the centre of the room.

He saw a mirror, and gasped, rushing over he saw his cloths, a beautiful long royal blue over coat, gold brocading vines with silver moonbloom lily's and ruby roses, in various stages of bloom scattered across it, it was cinched at his waist, held closed with a gold clasp shaped like a tresillo, he ran his fingers lightly over it a small smile playing at the edges of his lips, the coat was open topped, showing the shirt beneath, was pure snow white, with a soft round neck dotted in fine silver thread, he made out the Funk symbols for love, family and a blessing on a marriage. He could feel the weft it was made of pure silk, so delicate it looked almost pale, he knew in his head the bottom edge of the shirt would have the promises he would make to Tresillo when he accepted his final betrothal request.

He could just see the hem just below the where the coat opened back up.

His legs were covered in a soft leather trousers with tall gold topped boots.

On his head he had a crown of gold and silver leaves, held with bronze branch patterns, he reaching to touch it, these were the robes he wanted to marry Tresillo in, they were beautiful, he wished he could wear them for him.

He caught a shift at the edge if the mirror.

Turning around he took in the troll in front of him, navy blue almost black hair, grey blue fur, he looked exactly like Branch, the only difference was he looked older, his cloths reflected that he was an omega, the pattern different.

'Hello ragazzo dolce' the omegas voice was softer and kinder than Branch had heard in over a month, he felt his breathing speed up, 'oh,' Branch watched as the older omega open his arms, he took the invitation, and bolted into the hug, he rubbed his face into soft cloth beneath his cheek, heaving sobs came from him, as he felt the arms wrap around him, and tighten in comforting hug, he felt his knees buckle as he clung to the other, who held tighter and brought them slowly to the stone floor, 'its alright childe, it's alright' he felt the hand slowly brushing threw his hair again, the other softly stroking his back until he calmed down.

Had it really been such a short time snince Clay had held him, it felt like so long ago since he felt a comforting hug, or just indulged in having someone hold him without, he felt his body shudder at the memory, his instincts had taken over his body when she pinned him, 'its alright childe'

He knew she sent the mating fabric away now to be redesigned after the twin designers ran, he dreaded what would come back.

Branch rubbed his face into the trolls cheat again, as he felt paws rub circles on his back, 'little one, it's okay' he shook his head, it felt like it would never be okay again.

'Childe, Branch, sweet boy, come back to me' he felt the paw of the older omega, rubbing against his face, tracing nonsensical patterns, to calm him.

'Have you figured out who I am yet little one?' the omega asked, Branch put together the clues in the room and what he knew, 'your an omega, I know that, your part of the legend of harmony, your the Prince in the story, your Ramus' he felt the paw in hair stop, 'very good childe, but there's something your missing, do you know what my name means childe'

'Branch' he answered, Branch knew but he didn't know how, 'very good, do you know why that's important'

'Its my name, she keeps saying I'm the Branch to her Poppy, the Ram..' he looked up 'Ramus to her Papaver, your my bisnonno, this is because of what happened to you, my... our colours are the same, it's why I trusted you so quickly.'

'That's a bit of it uccellino' Ramus was petting his hair again, 'ah their here' Branch looked up to see where his bisnonno was looking.

Two Trolls came into view 'Tesoro' he whispered waiting for pain which never came, 'its not here uccellino' he felt the arms tighten briefly.

His felt his eyes well up, 'Ángel, mi amor, my spitfire' he was wrapped up in the apple and cinnamon scent, 'il mio cuore, Tesoro, my alpha' he held tighter as Tresillo rested him across his lap, he pulled away from tight hug, looking into the forest green eyes, and felt Tresillo's larger paw on his face, he couldn't help but nuzzle into it.


He was dreaming, this much Tresillo knew.

He looked out of the window and recognised the white sand and clear waters but the building, this wasn't familiar.

'Finalmente estás aquí, bienvenido nieto'Tresillo spun around a snarl on his lips as he took in the troll in front of him, 'quién eres' the growl behind him.

'Calm down boy, I'm not going to hurt you, I'm here to help' Tresillo took in the colours, he noted the similarities to his own, the only difference between them, a scar, it ran down below his left eye to the corner of his mouth.

'¿cómo te llamas?'

'Ombre'Tresillo nodded,we share the same name, he thought, 'can you help me find mi ángel?' as he looked around the room again'I can, is there something else?'

Tresillo felt Ombre's green eyes tracking him, 'there was something my Branch was going to get, do you know what?' He needed to know, what was so important he would go so close to the village, that he would ask his the King and Queen to allow him back.

'You presume I know what your mate thinks'his copy was smirking at him,'he yours' this caused his to growl, 'No no mio, nunca mio, solo su' his mate has been forced too much in the short time apart, he would never be Tresillo's he would be free, free to choose, from what he understood from Clay and Viva his mate had, had his choices taken by too many, his brothers who thought they knew what was best for him with no consideration to him, the pink bitch who was forcing herself on him, taking his freedom away little by little. Tresillo knew every choice he made from now on, would be made with his spitfire, together.

'you care for him, your rama, that is good it will help you'Tresillo raised an eyebrow at his copy, 'I love him, he is the greatest treasure I could have ever desire' he looked back to the tide washing upon the white sands again,perhaps i'll bring him here, he wanted to learn more, he would like it,he could imagine Branch and him walking the sands laughing, a pup in his arms one clinging to him or rushing ahead laughing.

'it is a beautiful, is it not, to have someone to love so fully' he nodded as a frown pulled at his face 'the necklace do you know it' he watched as Ombre had a bittersweet smile on his face, as he nodded stiffly,I know it well, Papaver, tricked my Rama, she stole some bands I had crafted, tricked me and his brothers into a cave and collapsed it, convinced him we were dead, by the time we managed to get back, she had it around his neck and he was carrying' Tresillo heard the growl 'Mi pobre Ramus, he had become a shadow of himself, his brothers tried, but he couldn't leave, he loved the pups, and his need to protect them from her was stronger'

'he sent his last pup to you' Tresillo watched as Ombre nodded, 'I never wanted him to stay but I understood, he sent me our son, he may have shared her blood, but he was mine, ours'Ombre was crying,'I told him the story, how much his mama loved him and sent him to me before he went to the stars.'

Tresillo felt sadness for the older Alpha, he wondered if he could do that,yes he would,he saw Ombre smile at him,'their is someone who needs to see you Tresillo'he took the hand the alpha offered.

He felt weightless, taking in the room, he smelt it Peach and cinnamon.

His head snapped toward the two trolls knelt on the floor,Branch,he took in the fine cloths he was wearing, and the crown of leafs on his head,he looks every inch a prince,he locked on azure pools, standing firmly out from the blue grey fur,oh mi amor what has she done to you.

Tresillo ran forward, he needed to hold him, 'Ángel, mi amor, my spitfire' faded colours or not this was his happiness, 'il mio cuore, Tesoro, my alpha' he felt Branch pull away slightly, and almost moaned until he felt a paw rest on his face, his own automatically mimicking it, those pools looked into his, as he felt the soft, tear damp face nuzzle gently into palm.

His arm tighten around the slim waist, as he pulled Branch, settling him closer to him, his paw sliding around the slim neck, stroking it slowly, he watched as Branch's eyelid flutter and a heard a low soft gasp escape him, 'Tresillo' his name fanned across his face with next breath, 'Branch' he pulled gently and felt no resistance, as their lip crashed together.

He swallowed the moans shared between them, and felt Branch's arms, sliding back around his neck pulling him closer, and deeper.

He had to forcefully pull himself away their foreheads pressed together as the pair gasped for air, a small flash of gold, caught Tresillo's eye, his fingers came to play with the small clasp, eyes widened slightly with recognition, in between the soft kisses he peppered across the ... teal... face.

He pulled back his spitfire his colours were back, he was still beautiful naturally, but this meant he was happy, he pulled Branch back into a toe curling kiss, catching the surprised sound as he felt his Ángel sink into the kiss and his arms, unclasping the over coat, paws slipping inside and around Branch's back.


Branch POV

Branch was relaxed, his mate was holding him, his scent surrounding him, he missed this, Tresillo's warm paw pulling him gently towards him he offered no resistance, he wanted this.

He felt Tresillo pull away unhappy he tried to chase the kiss, until he felt their foreheads press together, and his breathing caught back up with him, soft kisses were being pressed against his face, until they stopped, looking into green eyes he saw them widen, before he was pulled into the most toe curling kiss the pair had shared since the their very first, it felt like that time again.

Branch could do little more than melt into the warmth of Tresillo's arms, and the feelings crashing around him, as everything but this faded.

He was home.

Hand were on his back, he could feel the heat like a branding iron down his spine, his hips moved down, he'd never felt like this, the heat from Tresillo's body, his hands tracing down his spine, his back arched involuntary, pulling away from the kiss, 'Tresillo' he felt it the shallow thrust back, his body trembled as fear and phantom pain shot through him, 'no, I can't' he pushed himself away, 'I'm sorry'.

He saw something in the green eyes 'don't, not you, DONT PITY ME' he backed away'Childe' turning away he saw the older omega and clung to him, 'why?' as he shook in the hold.

'Amor' he flinched slightly 'amor look at me' he felt the larger trolls paw on his shoulder, 'I don't pity you' he looked at him 'don't lie' he saw the sadness, 'never, I don't pity you amor, I'm angry, I'm furious that she' he couldn't help it he flinched harder curling into the older omega at the mention of Poppy 'could take the inferno that burns in you' he heard the words, his eyes poking out 'and temper it to suit her, that fire is what I love about Amor'

'He's right childe' the older omega was petting him 'I couldn't last as long you did' he looked up at the his twin blue eyes, 'it's different, you believed your mate was dead' he cuddled the older omega, 'perhaps, but it doesn't mean I believed her, not until she showed me something I knew he would never part with, even then I held some hope' Branch felt a paw on his shoulder, he looked up at the taller alpha, Tresillo's copy, and back to his Tresillo,

'Childe, Branch, your mate is right here, he has not stopped fighting for you, I promise, I've been with him for awhile' the taller troll smirked at the gobsmacked expression on his grandsons face, 'you, your the voice in my head when I''when you were a hormonal letch to this sarcastic little thing, yes I was'.

Branch flushed as he felt the his own Nonno laughing at the pair, that was until he realised, 'it was you, you tried to, and you told me' he felt the laughing stop, as he looked up, he started to shake his head as he backed away from them all.


Ramus POV

'I'm so sorry childe' he saw Branch's eyes fill up as he backed away, he wanted to reach out and pull him back in to his arm and apologise, 'you, you made me, I didn't want to,Tresillo I didn't,you told me it was' he watched as Branch collapsed on to knees, 'Childe' a loud growl echoed the room when he tried to draw near.

'Stay away from him' he looked in shock when the young alpha blocked his path.

He watched with sad eyes as the pair clung to each other, the alpha was alternating between comforting Branch and making sure he stayed away. His grandpup was begging for forgiveness from the alpha reggaeton.

'Ramus' he turned to the concerned face of his lost mate, 'I just wanted to keep him safe, I never meant for him to get hurt' even here he couldn't hold Ombre, and Ombre could not hold him. 'I thought if he played along she wouldn't' Ramus choked on his tears, 'my love' a sad sigh came from his mate, 'how bad' was whispered, ' I think she has pupped him already he shows signs' was whispered back.

A louder growl and a whimper was heard.


Tresillos Pov

Tresillo heard it, he pressed a paw to his Spitfires waist, a whimper from his Branch his azure eyes clouded with pain and... fear, no, he would not allow his mate to be scared of him.

'Ángel, look at me' he felt the smaller troll tremble in his arms, 'Spitfire mírame, está bien, no estoy enojada' he saw the wariness behind the eyes, 'Un bebé es una alegría, es tuyo, y si me dejas lo amaré como mío, como nuestro, mi amor, está bien' he whispered between kissing away the tears that clung to his prince's face.

'you would' his Ángels voice trembled as he asked this, he felt his smaller paw join his as he rubbed his belly, ' if you are, this pup will never be hers, it will be ours, if you still want it, i no longer want to be your suitor' he saw Branchs face fall and his colour dim, pressing a kiss to his lips before he could say anything, 'Mi Amor, will you marry me, will you be mine, will you chose me as your mate' he watched as a confused look passed over Branch's face.


Branch's POV

The voice in Tresillos head keeping from, he felt his arms loosen from around his non... no from Ramus, backing away, he started shaking his head it couldn't, family wouldn't, 'you, you made me, I didn't want to,Tresillo I didn't,you told me it was'

Branch hardly felt the pain as his knees hit the floor, his heart hurt, 'Childe' he whimpered this was his grandfather, he knew he wanted him safe but he agreed, he couldn't even say he was forced he did everything, he was in control, that's what hurt the most, it was his own free will, he just taught him and encouraged him through the parts where he slipped, but every time, Branch said no he still did it.

He heard the snarl echo 'stay away from him' he felt the arms bring him into the comforting hold, Tresillo I'm sorry, I never wanted, he's not, he only told me how, Tresillo I never meant to hurt you, I'm sorry' he was muffled but he could smell, his hearts scent it wasn't sour, he heard the whispered words of ' not his fault, and never apologise for trying to stay safe, you have never hurt me, I love you' were dispersed between warning growls to the others as he was happily scented.

' I think she has pupped him already he shows signs' no, no, no oh muses no,his head tucked its way into Tresillo's neck, he whimpered, he was scared, he felt a paw on his belly, what if.

'Ángel look at me' oh muses no, Branch wanted to look anywhere but he pulled away waiting, that was when he heard him, Tresillo wasn't angry at him, he would take the maybe pup as his as theirs.

Wait what?

Branch was confused one second Tresillo was saying if there was a pup it would be theirs, and then telling him he no longer wanted to be his suitor, 'Mi Amor, will you marry me, will you be mine, will you choose me as your mate?' his heart soared, 'marry you' he looked into the forest green eyes as Tresillo nodded, 'Non ho mai voluto nessun altro, tesoro, tesoro mio, mio compagno, mio alfa, sì, sì, per favore sposami, rendimi tuo' he threw his arms around him.

'you'd really take the pup as yours' he felt him nod, and whisper yes, he hoped there wasn't a pup, but if there was it would be theirs, only theirs, he relaxed into the arms, he was exhausted.


Multi Pov

Ombre looked at the pair, while he lost his Ramus to death he wouldn't allow these two to lose each other, his nietas had found their matches and were happily mated to them and they didn't know yet, it was early, but the girls were expecting, his neito and nieto político he hoped Branch wasn't pregnant, and that any pups the pair had were their own.

Tambori and Soli, how fitting, he stood near the silently crying Ramus, 'is there possibility his own body has created the scent to keep her from harming him', Ramus looked at him, 'I am unsure, she has been' startled Ramus looked at the pair 'they will wake soon'

'Tresillo, Branch' the pair looked at Ombre and Ramus dopily, they were putting out pheromones of contentment and they way Tresillo had his paws over Branch's belly.

'there are some bands that have been passed through my grandsons, they were the last thing I could do, along with your contracts, Childe, they both should have been given to you' Ramus told the pair, 'waitI should have been given them both, I was only given the bands, my brot... John, Spruce, Clay and Floyd were given my contracts' Ramus watched in shock, as Tresillo whispered something to Branch, whose entire demeanour changed, as he kissed the alpha, 'thank you, tesoro, thank you'

'I have gotten the contacts from your smart grandson, Clay, he has signed them to the Royal Funk family, until Branch's safe return then they revert to him and him alone, it is ensured' the older pair watched as Tesillo returned to the whispered 'although your Mama has ensured our names are on them' which caused Branch to coo when a kiss was placed on his cheek, and neck, with a responding rumble as the pair cuddled into one and other, holding tightly.

'the bands I had them but before I could get them, I was dragged from Grammas Pod, I was going to get them before' Branch huddled back into Tresillo at the memory.

The room started to waver 'what's happening' the pair gasped clinging tighter 'your waking up'

'BRANCH' Poppys voice echoed,

'NO, no, mio cuore, the bunker I'm in the bunker' his body was fading 'Tresillo'

'Mi Ángel, its okay, I'll find you I promise, I love you hold on to that, hold on to your fire, te amo mi ángel'.


Branch was being shaken, 'BRANCH' Poppys voice, he was confused, bleary-eyed he looked around, he could smell his brothers and his stomach ached, whimpering he curled into a ball, holding his tummy as he shook.

Cool air hit his too warm body as pink filled his vision, he felt hands on his body 'oh my sapphire' hand where sweeping up his back, he tried to push them away but his limbs felt like noodles, he curled into a tighter ball, his hair reacting to his pain and cradling him in a small nest, away from hands.

'now Branch I'm not going to hurt you' Poppy cooed, 'your scent is divine, my sapphire, let me help' he felt his hair being parted slowly and saw pink, but it wouldn't open further than his shoulders.

'Branch move your hair' he whimpered his entire body racked with pain, this time not from the order but from his stomach, doubling over his hair curled around him again, he didn't know what was happening, but it hurt, his fevered mind called for the one thing he wanted, his alpha.

'Alphas here sapphire, I'm here alphas here' he hears Poppys voice, but it wasn't right.

'no, not mine, not mine, alpha hurts' he wrapped his paws tighter around his waist 'childe'he hears the voice, 'nonno, nonno, fa male, cosa sta succedendo?' his stomach, no lower felt like it was being stabbed, It was different from heat, 'childe its the trigger heat, seeing Tresillo, oh my uccellino, I'm sorry'whimpering and curled tighter into his hair, 'nonno' he felt a ghost of a paw run across his back.

'BRANCH, YOU NEED TO MOVE YOUR HAIR, MY SAPPHIRE, ALPHA IS HERE, let me in Sapphire, alpha is here, fetch Moonbloom now, sapphire I need you to open your hair'

'Childe, she's called for a doctor, you need to open your hair'Branch didn't want to but it hurt so much, he felt something sticky, his heat, 'no'

He felt Poppy lift him into her arms, 'let go, let go of me' he tried to push her off, she just held him tighter 'stop Sapphire, I know it hurts'

Branch looked up as the door to the room opened with a bang, letting in two trolls.

'Moonbloom what's happening'

Branch started to fight against Poppy's hold, as the nurse tried to get close 'NO, GET OFF, NO, DONT TOUCH ME' Poppys orders about keeping quiet with out her and fighting back trolls who tried to touch him was coming in handy right now.

He felt Poppy lock her arms around his torso and arms, he starter arching his body to push himself away, when one of the medic trolls grabbed his ankle, while started kicking and flailing when he finally dislodged the nurses paw 'Non toccarmi, stronza'he snarled, 'LET GO OF ME'.

He knew Tresillos words he loved him, he wasn't going to give, he felt his body burn he held on to the fire inside small as it was he wanted it to blaze for him, the inferno Tresillo told him about he thought it was gone, his fight gone, but here it was a promise of marriage, of his real family, their pup, he was fighting back, and he wouldn't stop not now.

Tresillo said to use the lessons.

He'd use her 'lessons' and turn them back on her, she bit him, he'd bite right back, he is the mate of a feared alpha reggaeton bounty hunter, he wasn't weak, if he was it would reflect badly on him.

If they were right and there was a pup, it wasn't hers, it would never be, it was theirs, his and his hearts, he would fight for his love, his pup and his freedom, his mate, alpha, fiancé was coming and he would fight.

'Has anything changed' the nurse called while Poppy and Moonbloom, tried to stop him, 'his scent, lilacs, Branchstop'pain started to burn his limbs, but he still tried to fight, until the pain got to much, and he collapsed against Poppy with a grunt.

Still struggling through the pain, he faught against her arms 'LET GO OF ME, DONT TOUCH ME, NOT YOURS, ITS MY PUP, MINE, NOT YOURS GET OFF ME' he screamed 'pup, what pup, Moonbloom WHAT PUP'

The three trolls managed to get him down, Branch struggled every second, until he felt a small prick in his arm and wooziness rush through him, 'no, no let...let go, do...don't tou...me' his eyes felt droopy and his mouth felt like cotton was stuffed in it, he could see the outlines of the three, 'Tree' his eyes tunnelled and he slipped under.


Poppy's eyes widened when Branch screamed about a pup, her arms locked around Branch, 'pup, what pup, Moonbloom WHAT PUP' she kept him in her arms.

She watched as a needle went into his arm, the struggling started to slow until he was whispered, 'Tres' she ignored that he had been given medication, 'what did he mean pup' she looked the two medical trolls.

Poppy watched as Moonbloom looked over Branch pressing onto his stomach and chest watching as his body tried to move away from the pressure.

'Well my Queen with out the hydrangea we can't be sure, but given the these reactions, it's possible, if I maybe indelicate, have you mated with him, I can tell you have been scenting him, which is good if there is' Moonbloom was still holding Branch's wrist.

'I have made sure he's ready for tomorrow's mating, ensured he was ready to accept me as his alpha, I had to make sure you understand, I can't risk loosing him' her paw stroked down his cheek, 'he's been on a hair pinned trigger for his heat the last few days.' She looked down a her mates face, 'he wasn't fighting, I had to put him in presentation position.' Branch responded so well to her, calmed instantly, he was perfect, beautiful, so ready and his scent today was so close to breeding heat 'but no, he hasn't been bred, not yet, I was rubbing my...'

'spend'

'yes across his seam and his scent glands, ensured it was massaged into him, and onto his opening'

'hmm, it could be that he isn't, and his body was preparing its self, but as I said until we have the hydrangeas, I would treat him as if he was, to be safe and I offer my congratulations, my Queen, if he isn't now he soon will be by the scent of him' Moonbloom finished.

'I'm going to give him a shot, it will hold his heat until you mate him or it wears off' Poppy watched as she prepared the syringe again, 'will it hurt the pup' she ran her hand over his waist, a rumble came from her as she pulled him into her arms and started lick at his neck, muses his scent was perfect she could hardly wait for tomorrow, when is would be blended with hers and they could go back to her pod.

She had already started to make a room for their pups as a mating gift, and here it was her beautiful sapphire was giving them their first of many, out side of their mating.

'I recommend keeping him here, until tomorrow at least, he'll sleep with the medication, I would also recommend keeping away from him for now, your scent may trigger the heat sooner', she started growling, 'my Queen, its for the best if you don't want him mated to someone else'.

Growling until she heard a whimper from Branch, she watched as he curled around his waist again she heard it again 'Tresillo' followed by a full body shake and another whimper.

She left the nest after wrapping him carefully he may have called his name now, but he would learn she was his mate not the fucking bounty hunter, she planned for a romantic night mating, now their mating was going to be midday, as unromantic as it going to be she would treat him like a king, she had been digging through dad things, her sapphire was a prince from Papaver and Ramus's lost line, and she was a Queen from another together this would solidify her rights as the Pop Queen.


Tresillo looked at the pair in front of him when his fiancé, fiancé, his alpha rumbled happily at the thought, vanished from his arms, 'something's wrong' Ramus faded, leaving Ombre and Tresillo alone.

The room started to flicker,'come nieto, we need to leave'

Tresillo took the offered hand and was back looking over the white shores.'Niteo, what are you thinking'

'You said Ramus was a shadow of himself, and I saw you look at my Ángel like I had lost him, his fight, his fire, it isn't gone, she was dousing it, but its still there its burning, and it will burn more, you said Ramus fought for his pups, right, and got one to you, my Branch, my spitfire, will destroy anyone and everything for a pup I've seen it.'

'Tell me'

'Branch had come to help out a lonesome flats to help with repairs and ended up taking care of a small group pups who were being overly rambunctious and none adults were free to watch them' he smiled at the memory, 'I was watching them from the hillside above, I...er... was ignoring my affection at the time' he bowed his head blushing, as his abuelo was guffing at him, 'niteo, really' his blush got deeper 'Cállate tú'.

'I was asked to watch over them they were still wary about Pop trolls at the time, it was usual, it's rare at that time of year but the earth shook causing a landslide where the children and Branch were playing, he got all but one trolling out of there at risk to himself, but when he took a head count he was frantic, that was when I realised which one was missing, Clampers Butterwillow, mi omega, he was frantic and he found her holding on to a tree branch hanging over rodeo rivers, he saved that little girls life, and almost drown himself in the process, I could have killed him, but dios mío was he wonderful.'

He could still remember watching the way Branch moved, he put even the most graceful reggaeton to shame, he was nurturing as he held the pup tight in his arms, comforting her as they were both shaking on the side of the waters when Tambora had found them she had sent to signal alerting the group, she'd found them.

Branch had been clinging to a large rock formation stopping them from going further down the cold waters, 'Clampers was terrified for days wouldn't let Branch out of her sight and he wouldn't let her out of his, practically ripped mayor Dawn's arm off every time she tried to take her, he was magnificent, it was then I saw that fire, the inferno which burned in him, I know he's scared, and he thinks she's holds him, she never will.'

His smile went vicious, 'I told him, to use her orders against her, he'll fight, he begged me for forgiveness, he never needed it, he's a born hunter, I've seen how he reacts, I told him so, he's my mate, nothing could be more incredible to me, he knows how close he is to a triggered heat, and how'

'how one injection can stall the heat until he's either mated or it wears off' Ombre's smile matched Tresillo's 'his idea, I presume' Ombre smiled harder his nietos mate was what his Ramus was before and he didn't even now it, Ramus was a Prince and the only remaining heir to the Pop throne after his brothers left abandoned him, his nietos aman, he hoped it worked.

'You should bring him here, to this house, it was built for Ramus we were going to come her after are wedding and mating, but I think you two, you would like it here' Tresillo looked around the room, he saw it looked fuzzy at the edges, 'I'm waking you aren't I'

'Yes'

'The rings Ramus and Branch mentioned, will they help'

'more than you know, the crystal in them has unusual properties, you know what they are, you've seen them before'

'Tell me before I wake'

'Harmony, the legend'

'Kismet, mi trío, la realeza y sus hermanos't the last words were hissed

'Sí, and your love, there his best chance'

'midday there moving the ceremony to midday' a voice echoed through the room

'you need to wake up now nieto, Encuéntralo, ámalo y asegúrate de conocer a mi bisnieto'

The room was starting to fade and warp as he woke he heard the voice one last time

'break that necklace once and for all'

He woke up to see a group of trolls, staring at him, 'we need to go to troll village now' his smile widened teeth displayed and fangs elongated, eyes glowing red.

'I'm getting my fiancé back today'
