CHAPTER FOUR

The forest began to close in, the smell of wet dirt and damp wood, the Aroma of pine and sweet scented flowers, made the air in the forest cool and breathtaking Lhathron move at lighting speed following magic through the evermore, he followed the scent of the intruder, down to the border of the lake, The king already called in the elders and they were waiting for his return. 

elven elders cluster together they all felt the ripple through the barrier when it was broken into, they were all waiting on their king and his father, the smell of dark magic was high in air around the lake but nothing could be seen upon the still waters, the sound of birds was absent in the area making know that dark magic was done here- Lhathron taste the air of Thelinora whatever it was that came in did not have an evil aura. 

But all the same he had to know what was inside the walls of his city, Lhathron bent down his long sword with runes crave into it, laid on his back, his long sliver hair swayed with the wind as he look out onto the body of water. Placing his palm on the earth to follow the unknown entity, he track the magic all the way to the docks, the Forrest elves could all feel their king in their midst.
 
 They gather in the dense Forrest as they watch their king spread his magic around them tracing every single life form in the Forrest, the elder of the Forrest elves step into the opening, placing his right hand over his heart and bowed his head.

“My king peace is with you, I... This elder had felt the dark magic, but when I came here there was no one on sight.
Lhathron sliver eyes flash bright as he scans the elder before him.
“Peace is with you elder, please guide the elves back to their homes the kingdom will investigate this matter.” 

The elves elders all Cluster together waiting on their king and his father to come through the doors, The doors open and in Storm king Lhathron, he was upset and needed answers, he already send out his best man to scout the area. But he needed to know what he was dealing with, he tap into his powers but they reveal nothing, he needed to consult the Seer.

"Someone just enter into our city, they entered through the barrier right into Thelinora, their aura is different from the others, this life form is one that I have not felt before...” Lhathron said walking back and forward looking at the elders. 
“Call the seer.

*******one hour earlier******

Lhathron burst through Valrion doors he found his joining mate bent over a table with one of his servant boy taking him from behind.

"Oh by the gods have you no shame Sairion- must I be the one to walk in on this ungodly sight you have going on here?

The servant boy jump in fright, the sight of his king so close to him, was terrifying. He quickly back away from prince sairion, fear on his face. He thought about dropping to his knees to beg for forgiveness, but his arse was out with his pants at his ankles. He didn't know if the king would kill him for touching what was his or for not falling to his knees immediately.

The boy didn't want to at first, when prince sairion approach him while he was cleaning the swords. but then the prince had touch his shoulders using magic to entice him. It wasn't long before they were back in prince Sairion quarters and all resistance from the boy was gone; now he would curse himself for it.

His humiliation and misfortune will bring shame to his father's name, the black smith of Thelinora. It was no secret that the king took lovers now and then, especially when he was away, but the boy had heard there were rules between them, never show affection to anyone else's. 
He had herded the gossips among the castle maids.
They spoke of the nightly visits from men of noble houses all hoping to catch the eyes of the mighty elven king. 

That was different than being caught in the act."Leave us boy." eyes cold as snow met the servant, there goes his dreams of joining the Kings men-pulling his self together the servant fled the room as fast as he could.

Lhathron turn to Sairion with accusing eyes, looking at him upon down with disgust. When have they gotten along, he couldn't remember a time where there was peace between them, except for when they we're bedding.

"Why do you look so surprise my king." it is no secret what happens in this room."

"No it most certainly not." but one would think, you would have better choice of bed partners, taking the servants or having them take you- brings shame to me Sairion."  Sairion was furious of the accusation like this was not their norm.

“And that just it right? That is your concerns great elven king! That I am shaming you with the status of my bed partners." Sairion all but shout he was beyond upset his pride was damaged.

"What about the fact that I even had to have someone else in my bed at all; dose that not bother you!
Sairion look at his Husband wondering what he had gotten into, it had been a hundred years since they have join together, and created the alliance.
Yet nothing had change between them.

"Let me remind you fairy prince, it is you who had said you needed freedom. it is you who said we do not love each other, so there is no need for us to like each other-You said, on the day we joined all we are required to do is produced an hair-to seal this alliance. And that duty you still have yet to fulfil." Must be all those filth you take in your body."

A Cup pass by Lhathron head so fast, if it wasn't for whom he was his head would have been gone.
