"Is he awake now?" A man asked as he came to the gates of the castle.

The guard nods his head. "Lord Baltimore has been waiting for you."

The man bows and heads into the abandoned castle. It was where the mortal cult lived and hid in. It was far from all the other kingdoms, dark and dismal. Threats lived here, keeping the outsiders out.

The man headed to the bedroom of Lord Baltimore. The old man layed in the bed, clinging to his senses of life. His face was bandaged up, only one eye was covered up.

His body was immobile and next to him was a mental moving wheelchair. It was like an upgrade. Just as King Valdemar said.

Baltimore coughed as he tried to get up and speak with his trusted spy. "You've returned.." That old raspy voice spoke.

The man knelt down. "Yes my Lord."

"Good..Any news at the Imperial Kingdom?"

The man stood up. "The Queen has given birth."

Baltimore was silent and there crawled a sinister smirk on his face. "How many?"

"Four sons." He admitted without any hesitation. Baltimore was already thinking of his backup plan. This was perfect. If he had taken one or best yet two of the children, he'll have leverage and able to get the King to give up his land, territory and all that were left.

He'll be ontop.

"Yes...very good..That brought all my plans back in action. Finally, that stupid lizard will give everything for his children. And maybe gain that omega. He seems powerful, no?"

The man nods his head. "Queen Lixue is a powerful force." He said. "Sometimes reminds me of Valdemar but different."

Baltimore coughed up again. "Good.. Tonight, I want you to grab two of them and bring them here for me. Make sure to give the newly parents a letter..~Or those heirs will die.."

The man bows. "Yes my Lord."

{Meanwhile}

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Look at that smile." Lixue cooed as he lifted his second born into the air. Casimir giggled and tried to reach for his mother's face.

Lixue chuckled and kissed his chubbed cheeks. Alongside him, were the three others. All rested on the bed.

Kallias, the first born, layed asleep on the blanket as his brothers seemed to have energy. Amadeus and Rhys, were squirming about and kicking their feet.

Lixue shaked his head at their antics. "Mischievous boys. Why don't you rest like your brother?" He asked as if he could get a reply.

Soon after the door opened and Valdemar came walking, pushing in a cart of covered dishes and a grin on his face.

Lixue sets Casimir on his blanket besides his brothers and took Amadeus in his arms.

"My treasure."

"Darling..?" He answered with a skeptical look of how his husband's expression was.

The Dragon King came over. "I know you are busy.. Well, feeding our offspring, but I have gotten something prepared for you to eat."

"Oh dear, for what reason?"

Valdemar frowned. "Can't a husband provide for his wife?" Lixue hums as he brushed through Amadeus's ink black. "That is very generous of my love, but I feel he has a greater motive for suddenly making dinner."

Valdemar sighs and pushed the trolley to the side. "So your not hungry. I got it."

"Valdemar."

"Ah Fine-yes I do have a motive. It is for you to take a break. They've been all over you." Lixue looks to his sons, babies, then back to the sulking, mighty, handsome Dragon husband of his.

The Queen blinked his eyes in question till it clicked. "Are you jealous? Darling their babies of course they will be attached to me. I have to provide for them."

Valdemar sulked more. "Give them an apple."

"Val!"

Valdemar rose his hands up and sat on the bed. "Ok ok I'm sorry." His head looked down to Amadeus feeding and he frowned. There he pooked Amadeus's cheek. They were all up on his omega from day one and he didn't get a chance.

They were always hungry, especially Casimir and Rhys. They kept his wife up, suckled till they were filled. They fell asleep for one hour and the process began a new.

He pooked again this time to Amadeus's moving baby lips. He pulled and Amadeus unlatched at the bother that is his father.

Lixue slapped Valdemar's hand away. "What are you doing? Your bothering him." Lixue glared at the King, the King's response is a deeper scowl.

"What is wrong with you?" Lixue asked.

"Do they have to get their nutrients from you? Literally." Valdemar gestured to where Amadeus was at the moment. Lixue was now understanding and rolled his eyes.

"You annoying tyrant. Why are you jealous about your sons? Their babies."

"Who are taking your attention."

"Are you five?? You have me when the boys are asleep." He fought on. "That takes hour." Valdemar replied the same way.

"Oh well." Lixue shrugged.

Valdemar leant in and kissed at Lixue's cheek. Lixue flinched. "You needy bastard, get out before you sleep outside!"

"I am the King-"

"Out or outside.."

Valdemar looked at that cold glare towards him. It ment two things. One, he better get out or sleeps outside or don't let me repeat myself. Neither were good.

Look he maybe a King of People, but his title ment nothing to an angry omega who happens to be his wife and mother of his four sons.

Fortunately for him, the door was knocked and Valdemar relentlessly rose up to attend to the door. He opens it and Vaayn was at the front.

"We're about to send the villagers back to their town outside. They wish for you to guide them."

Valdemar looks to Lixue who smiled at him. It looked small and kind but there was an order behind it.

Better go.

Valdemar sighs in defeat and looks back to his counselor. "Let's not have them waiting now." Vaayn stepped to the side and bows his head. Valdemar stepped out the doors, dressed with a frown but sucked it up.

Lixue on the other hand shaked his head at his husband's behavior. He looks to his sons. "What's with your father?- Rhys leave Kallias alone."

~~~~~~~~~~~~

[ Later that Day..]

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Valdemar had came back later that evening. Once homeless men and woman had themselves a home, rebuilt town outside of the Kingdom walls.

They were abundant in cheers and clapping as they were back to their original settlement.

Now, Valdemar headed back before the darkness became greater and was met with Lixue in the garden with the quadruplets.

Rou stood besides him with the two and Lixue holding the other two. He showed off flowers he grew in his garden, picked some and showed his ice sculpture he made for said garden.

The boys seems content with touching it, cooing at it adorably. It was a moment he loved to see. He felt proud to have brought and built his own family with such an amazing omega.

To see that smile on Lixue's face grow tenfold around the boys and the boys adoring that smile.

They were all his treasures and he will do anything to keep it that way and make sure their all safe.

~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~

The night emerged over the sky and everyone was getting ready for bed. All except the Sevillirion quadruplets.

With this new chapter in Lixue and Valdemar's lives, one chapter they kept going back on is getting these three gremlins asleep.

Kallias fortunately taken that opportunity to sleep right in his mother's arms, surrounded by scents of both parents.

He was lolling off and having Lixue supporting his head so he doesn't break it with the amount of times his head went back or slid to the side.

He seemed to be the sleeper more than the others who were squealing messes as Valdemar played with them.

Valdemar had rested them on the bed next to one another and he to layed there facing them.

He pretended to roar at them and they giggled and laughed and kicked in excitement. At one point, Rhys kicked Valdemar in his face and Valdemar grabbed his foot and goes to playfully bit it. Casimir and Amadeus laughed.

"Oh you think it's so funny? Oh you little raskles I'll fix it."

With his free hand he tickled and bantered with them, filling the bedroom with laughter and high pitched squealing.

Lixue chuckled at their antics. But it was time for bed for them and with the yawns he was seeing in the middle of this season was signal that they were getting tired.

~~~~~~

The mission of putting them to sleep was a success. All four were placed in their room, resting in the same cradle. They were very fussy when it came to sleeping without being together. So Lixue pressed kisses to each of their heads and left them to their rest.

Valdemar took that opportunity to grab Lixue and tug him back to their room to a bit heated, if you get what I mean.{✨}

~~~~~~

[ Midnight..]

~~~~~~

The bedroom door opened with a creak..

The distant flicker of a lit torch hallway colored the dark and large bedroom of the royal quadruplets.

The person walked into the room silently and looked at the cradle where they all slept in. Inside them, they saw the sleeping princes. They were hesitant.

Why?

For one, this was the children of a Dragon King. The powerful King he worked for since he's doing this spy work for Baltimore. God..This was going to be hell to pay.

So he picked one up, shushes him before he cried. Then his other hand held the second child and did the exact same procedure and a bit of more energy to get them secure in a sling against his chest.

There he finished and left in the night with the twins.

~~~

Lixue rose from his bed as the cries of babies had him up. He heads to their bedroom and checked them. But as he did, lifting Kallias in his arms and soothing him, he noticed two empty spaces.

His heart sank into his body and his heartbeat sped up.

"Valdemar! Valdemar their gone!!"

Valdemar was running into the room after that distressing sound. He looked in and saw Lixue crying with Kallias and Rhys in his arms who were also hysterical in cries.

"Their what? Who is gone?!"

"Amadeus and Casimir!- My babies...are gone..!" Lixue hugged his still here children closely. Valdemar saw red. He looked about the room and found a piece of paper.

The Dragon King roared in anger, turning that paper in nothing but ashes and fumming with every exhale of breath.

"Get me Selin now!"

Valdemar goes to his wife and hugged him and his children at once. Lixue was devastated and angry. He hated this.

Baltimore was a dead man.

Selin came rushing to the room. "My King. What do you need?? I heard the news."

Valdemar presses a kiss to his lovers head. "I will go find them. You stay here. I'll bring them back alive."

Lixue shakes his head. "No no let me come with you. I want to see that man die at your feet for what he did." Valdemar wanted to fight it but Lixue was very serious. Furious wasn't the word he will call this right now.

It was Revenge.

Valdemar didn't fight it and nods. "Fine. Get ready let's get our children back."

Lixue nods and heads out the door behind Valdemar.

~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~

The Kingdom was in an uproar. Anger filled them as the news of the twins kidnapping spread through the night breeze.

The King and Queen, mounted on their horses raced out those doors with a few loyal men. Selin stayed back to keep watch and over Rou who was watching over Kallias and Rhys.

Now they were off to where Baltimore was hidden. Pfft if you can call it hidden.

Klein had found the castle and told Valdemar then and there. There they arrived at the castle.

Shit began from there.

~~~~~~~~

[ Meanwhile ]

~~~~~~~~

Vixen busted into the room where his grandfather was, the woman he has been tallying about was standing there watching the two children in a wooden cradle.

"YOU PSYCHOPATH FUCKER GRANDFATHER!"

The woman scowled and stood front for the Lord. "Be kind with your words Vixen."

"Fuck you woman! Baltimore do you have any idea what the fuck you just PUT OVER HEADS?!"

Baltimore smirked. "Yes our rightful place to rule. Us mortals will finally be ontop and everyone will worship me.."

Vixen laughed hysterically. "You dull bastard- You stole the dragon's kids?! Do you not care about lives?!"

"NO!"

Silence...

"I am doing everyone a favor. Aren't you fed up being under rule?! Well I have. I don't care about others. About you. About how you feel. See these younglings? They will get me to the top! And you will NOT RUIN IT FOR ME YOU UNGRATEFUL CHILD OF THAT WHORE!"

Vixen chuckled dryly. "And there's your true colors..Who would want to worship a selfish person like you..? My mother may have been whatever you think, but for one, he was strong and loved and raised me right. I don't care what you think and you won't be controlling my life any longer!" Vixen slammed his knife into the wall, seeing the fear in the woman and the disgust in his dying grandfather's face.

"I won't die. Not till I rule.."

"Is that so?" Vixen lifted his head up, his eyes glancing down. "If so, then why not speak it with the King himself."

Baltimore was confused till he saw Valdemar.

The man, large, deadly and his aura thick with menacing and malicious intent to harm him again breathed down his neck. Every part of Baltimore's body ached with the pains of what he endured that day.

Behind the King was a beauty that glared at him coldy before looking to the wooden cradle and that's when his expression changed.

"I see you've finally arrived." He said, the wheelchair moving to the cradle. "I hope my grandson, the little traitor, explained it all to you."

Valdemar didn't answer but Lixue did. "I want your head on the sharpest spike..Give me back my children you damned man.."

Baltimore looked at Lixue up and down and looks to Valdemar. "Such a prize.. Congratulations. I wanted only to see these younglings. Is it so bad?"

Lixue fummed. "You kidnapped my children! Do you even have a brain?? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!-"

Valdemar rose his hand, blocking Lixue from going after him and killinh him with his ice. He didn't want him to attack him. That was his job.

"I thought I killed you?.." Valdemar finally spoke.

"It takes a lot to kill me, like it takes a lot to put you down."

Everyone in the room except the girl and Baltimore hissed and growled at the disrespect towards Valdemar.

"A bunch of animals. I don't have time for that is! Lian, give me the kids."

The woman trembled but does as told. Lixue wanted to kill her so badly for even putting her hands on his boys. There they were put in the arms of Baltimore and the man suddenly stood up.

Vixen heaved a breath as magic gave him strength. He knew he was up to good in that bed.

"What poor soul did you drain to get that kind of mana.. grandfather?"

"You don't worry about that. Be careful I don't drain you too, Vixen."

The beta snarled but didn't reply.

"Now let's this begin. I want you to give up your Kingdom or your children does, Valdemar."

Two gree glowing knifes lifted into the air on both sides of where Baltimore held the babies. Lixue panicked at the sight but Valdemar kept him at bay and to wait.

Valdemar's eyes glowed a toxic red color, his scowl evident.

"So what will it be?"

Valdemar didn't answer. Lixue grabs his husband's arm. "Valdemar.." Valdemar looks to his beloved and back at that bastard.

"ANSWER ME YOU DEMON! YOU TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME! I'M THE PERSON WHO IS SUPPOSED TO BE ONTOP. ALL HUMANS!! YOU ANIMALS ARE TO BE USED!"

All those raged inside as he spat and cursed in anger. Yet Valdemar didn't say anything. His eyes were on his children. Around both children had some kind of aura. Amadeus's own was a light red color while Casimir's was a white.

They're faces changed from peaceful to fussy as they were shaked and bambared with shouting. They didn't like it.

Then they started crying, causing everyone to be on edge and for Baltimore to stop talking. He looked down at them to shut them up only for his arms to feel pain.

One arm was raising heat till the point it burned like a hot pot was on his arm and the next was a painful cold frost that crawled up to his bicep.

Baltimore screamed and released both babies for the pain to stop.

Lixue worked quickly and a tangle of vines sprouted out of the floor and caught them. Their small bodies layed on those comfortable vines.

During that Valdemar ran to Baltimore, taking the man through the wall and into some room.

Lixue goes to his children while his husband beat the shit out of Baltimore. The woman however came to fight him off just to keep him, the mother, away from his boys.

Lixue snapped his eyes to her and she scowled.

"Lord Baltimore told me to keep you all from them till the deal is over."

"You stupid bitch. He's a dead man!" Vixen told her and she shouted for him to shut up. She was back on Lixue.

The omega stood straight and stared her dead in the face. Lian was confused, unsettled and she just had a feeling something was about to happen.

She was right.

A burst of white mist engulfed the room like a thick fog. She looked about, tried to get out of the fog only to be going in a circle.

"LET ME OUT!-Ack."

Lian shivered and blinked. Her head lowered and she saw a shard through her middle. It coated in her blood. Slowly her eyes goes to see an elf. White curly hair, pale skin, beautiful and ethereal looks but a dangerous look in his look.

His eyes glowered an ocean blue color, his pupils seemed to shape into roses aswell which was weird. Maybe she was hallucinating..After all she was bleeding out.

She coughed and blood spilled out into the growing pool below her.

"I'm sorry... Baltimore...."

And she was down, limp, dead and out of his way.

Lixue didn't flinch. He didn't care nor wanted to. After that he rushed to his sons and scooped them up. They whimpered and whined, calming down as he spoke to them.

Now it was just Valdemar and Baltimore.

~~~~

The old man's borrowed strength weere draining the more Valdemar cuffed and knocked him about the room. Through another room, through a glass into a draw. Just anything Valdemar was doing to him.

At one point Baltimore lifted a shield and Valdemar's manic eyes grew, feral smirk embraced his stern face.

With that Baltimore was punched straight through the floor, down a few levels and layed there in agony. Around him were left over shield he tried to protect himself with.

Every part of his body burned and screamed for it to end. The overwhelming pain was to much and hot blood was pouring out of him and his bandaged wounds.

Valdemar dropped down and Baltimore's heart sank.

He's fucked.

Valdemar kicked him into a wall and Baltimore wheezed before crashing back intot he destroyed floor of debris and glass.

"I thought I had killed you. But you came back like a little roach. Now look at you, weaker. Dying on the last plug."

Valdemar grabbed him by the throat and lifted him up.

"Your going to get the worst kind of death after the BULSHIT YOU PULLED!"

Right back into another wall where Baltimore went through and layed in his pool of blood.

Valdemar went after him. "Don't die yet. I'm not done with you!"

Valdemar throws him into another wall, three times as hard and he heard the cracking of bones from that impact.

The old man was screaming and crying, cursing out Valdemar.

"Y-you.. bastard!"

Valdemar shuts him up with a hand round his throat. "I'm alot of things mortal. Your grim reaper is who I am to you..You wanted my attention... so congratulations.."

Baltimore shaked his head. "No, no-No!!-"

Valdemar grabbed Baltimore's jaw and forced them open. There he brought out his fire and showered Baltimore with it. (Godzilla who😗)

"AA-!"

It may seem cruel yes, but it was effective to all of Valdemar's enemies. They were burned from inside out, screaming was useless. Vocals were nothing when it began.

Baltimore was left burning after that and Valdemar made sure this castle turned into ruins and to never be used again.

After that he was reunited with his wife and his sons, taking them into his arms and pulling Lixue in with a kiss.

What a story he even gotten from that Grandson of Baltimore. Apparently keeping his lover from killing was like keeping a mosquito from bitting you.

But now wasn't the time. Everything was back to how it was.

This was over.

~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~

"Amadeus we had one job."

"I know. Does it matter now? We're lost."

"Not if you hadn't run off."

"You followed him when I said not to."

"Pfft so it's an all of us then. See told you this adventure will work out Kallias."

The boy rolled his eyes.

"So what are we to do now?"

"Easy genius fly back."

"Amadeus!"

The boy groaned as he turned to his brothers. "Seriously? Rhys you too?"

Rhys shrugs and follows Casimir more. Amadeus sighs and expressed it. Kallias patted his brother on his shoulder.

"Come on walk."

Amadeus tsked. "Whatever."

The four kept walking through the path till they met with a gate. It was fenced in and high. Amadeus smirked and an instant idea to hop over took over.

"What are they hiding in there..?~"

Kallias grabs Amadeus. "No. This is where we are forbidden to go to. Father's orders."

"Don't forget mother." Casimir chirped in.

Amadeus hums and folds his arms. "Ok fine. So this is a pin point. Meaning we aren't far from the castle."

"We're a way off. Dracon can be anywhere." Rhys said. "Dad's gonna kill us."

"Wonderful." Amadeus replied exasperatedly. "I hope you all have a funeral planned."

Kallias sighs. "Not till we get back. So let's focus on that first."

"Where do you think you four are going??"

All four boys turned to see a big chubby man, dressed in thick cloths and a holding knife stood with a cruel smirk on his rounded, ugly face.

"Who's the pig?" Amadeus and Rhys said at once.

Kallias and Casimir looked at one another.

This ment trouble. Ha, but not for them.
