Lily sighed as she took in the rays of the sun for energy. She would need as much as her body could possibly hold. The fairy fields were invisible and only with the morning sun's energy could you ever hope to find them. Turning in mid air she stepped onto the ledge and Lucas' hand was there to help her in, "I can go on my own from here." She said and started for the door only to be pulled up short as Lucas grabbed hold of her hand.
"No, you're my mate. Where you go I go." He said and looked at his brothers and dad who nodded in approval.
"I don't want you to get hurt." Lily said through clenched teeth, "Besides only Fae can step into the Fields." Lying through her teeth she said looking up at him.
"Liar. I'm going with you." Lucas said his eyes flashing silver.
"I'm not lying and you're not going anywhere." She said pulling her hand out of his grasp as her stomach growled.
"You're hungry, let's go eat something and then we can get some things together so we can go look for the Fields ok?" Lucas said and pulled her out of the room with everyone staring at them they headed down the stairs and into a large kitchen filled with dozens of people who stopped what they were doing when they saw Lucas and Lily.
"Who is that?" A womans voice said from Lilys' left making her glance over.
"Don't worry about them." Lucas said and pulled her deeper into the kitchen, "My dads pack has no sensibilities."
Lily looked over at Lucas and saw the hard set of his jaw, "We can go out to eat." She suggested pulling on his hand.
Lucas looked over at her and smiled, "My dad would take offense to that."
"I don't care. I have to get to the Fields. The sooner we leave the more power I still have to see the path." She reasoned with him staring up at him encouragingly.
Lucas thought it over and took a deep breath, "Alright, the garage is this way." He said and pulled her through a door to their right.
Nick and Silas were already packing a range rover with coolers, sleeping bags, pillows, blankets, and tents, "So how long do you think it'll take to get there?" Nick asked Lily as he closed the trunk.
"I don't know." Lily said with a shrug, "That's probably where my aunt went." She thought aloud before shrugging again, "It really shouldn't take long."
"Alright if you're sure." Silas said with a smile as he got into the back seat with Nick.
"You drive Lily since you're the only one that can see the path." Lucas said as he climbed into the passengers seat.
Lily got in and started the car, "How do you open the garage door?" Just as Lucas flipped a switch and it rolled upwards, "Thanks." She said with a smile as she put the car in reverse and backed out of the driveway. As soon as they were on the bumpy forest road she could see the faint trail of fairy dust at the edges of the road leading the way towards the Fairy Fields. Chapter 3
Lucas fiddled with the radio looking for a decent song finding none he turned it off and Silas began talking in the back seat.
"What do the Fairy Fields look like?" He asked Lily leaning forward in his seat.
"I've never been there, but I was born there, all Fae are born in one Fairy Field or another." She said looking at him for a brief second before looking back at the road.
"Oh." Silas said and leaned back in the seat, "Do you think there'll be anyone there?" He whispered.
"I don't know." Lily replied with a sad look on her face, "Most don't make it past the safety barrier."
"Why not?" Nick asked curiously.
"They have to fight their way through. There'll be demons and other creatures waiting, unless they find the secret entrance. And unluckily for us I've never been there, but we do have this beautiful Range Rover we can sacrifice." She said as she patted the dashboard, "Where's my Porsche by the way?" She asked looking in the rear view mirror.
"Umm about your car, well there was an accident." Silas said with a sheepish grin on his face.
"What do you mean an accident." Lily exclaimed jerking the car to a stop and turning in her seat.
"It kinda blew up." Nick said looking out the window avoiding the daggers Lilys' eyes were throwing at him and Silas.
"You're so buying me a new one." She said and started down the road again.
"How long will you be able to see the path?" Lucas asked her as he reached over for her hand and held it in his own.
"I have no idea. All I know is if it fades before we get there we have to stop until sunrise." Lily said softly as he squeezed her hand encouragingly, "But I don't think we're that far. The path is becoming brighter." She said as the fairy dust covered the road making it glint gold, red, and silver.
Lucas smiled, "At least we wont be sleeping in tents." He said with a grin. Silas and Nick laughed just as Lily slammed on the brakes, pulled over and shoved the car in park turning it off she handed the keys to Lucas.
"We walk from here." She said as she popped the trunk, "There's a secret passageway." She said as she hopped out and walked over to a large pine tree. Knocking on its trunk like it was a door she waited until it opened to show a hole with stairs leading down. She looked back at them as they started unloading the trunk, "Hurry." she said as she started glancing around nervously.
Lucas, Silas and Nick grabbed as many things as they could before shutting the trunk, locking the doors and walking over to the tree, "You first Lily." Lucas said and waited until she had disappeared into the darkness.
"Come on." She yelled back up as a light filtered up through the hole, "There's lamps down here." She shrieked when Lucas came up behind her, "The lights will lead us into the Fields." She said as Silas and Nick appeared right behind Lucas.
"Will anyone be able to follow us?" Silas asked nervously as he glanced back up the hole.
Lily shook her head slightly as she started down the large tunnel, "I don't think so." She whispered as the tunnel twisted and turned.
Lucas glanced at the dirty walls and cobwebs that lined the ceiling. This tunnel hasn't been used in what smelt like decades. The air was stale mixed in with Lily's cherry blossom scent. He followed behind Lily, keeping an eye out just in case something had made it into the tunnels. When they reached a wall of dirt he was disappointed before Lily started searching the dirt covered walls muttering to herself.
"Here we go." Lily said as she grabbed hold of what looked like a vine and yanked on it. the dirt wall that had seconds before been blocking their way crumbled to the ground to reveal a large field with a huge stone castle in the center.
"Lily." Lydia exclaimed as she ran out of the castle and met Lily half way pulling her into a hug, "I knew you would find your way."
Lily couldn't help the sigh of relief that left her lips as she hugged her aunt close, "Where's Lucian?" She asked just as he stepped out of the castle with a smile on his face.
"My darling little calla Lily." He said as he swept her up in his arms and hugged her close, "Your mom would've been proud of you." He whispered in her ear as he set her on her feet.
"Here, this belonged to your mother, she wanted you to have it the moment you stepped foot onto the Fields." Lydia said as she pulled out the crown of the Fae of the West and placed it in Lilys hair, "Beautiful isn't she?" She asked no one in particular.
Lucas stared at Lily then at the crown on her head. He was mated to the Princess of the Fae. She turned to look at him with a hesitant smile on her face. She was nervous he would see her differently but he didn't. He couldn't. She was his mate and there was nothing he would change about her. Absolutely nothing.
"Aunt Lydia," Lily said hesitantly, "Where is everyone?" She asked glancing around at the empty Fields.
"They're inside in the ballroom." She said and grabbed Lily's hand to lead her inside only to be taken aback when she slipped her hand out of hers and grabbed hold of Lucas'.
"I don't trust the Fae from the East. They can be a bit vindictive. Especially when they notice that the new King of the West is a wolf. So please stay close to Lily." Lucian said as he led the way inside the large stone castle with Lydia.
Lucas nodded, no one would get near. He motioned for Nick and Silas to follow them as Lily's aunt led them up a large white marble staircase, she stopped at a door and opened it.
"This is your room," She said motioning Lily and Lucas inside, "Change, I will be back in twenty minutes to take you to the ballroom."
Lily walked into the spacious bedroom she would share with Lucas. Reluctantly she let go of his hand and opened the closest door to her. Peering inside she saw a large bathroom done in white and black marble, "Hey Lucas check the other door." She said as she walked further into the bathroom. A large claw foot tub sat in the center of the room to her left was one of the largest showers she'd ever seen enclosed in glass.
"Lily, here." Lucas said walking in and handing her a blood red ball gown, "You can get dressed in here if you want." He said and walked back out of the bathroom.
Lily held out the beautiful dress in front of her before putting it on the hook behind the door. Stripping out of her jeans, t-shirt and flip flops. Turning taps on the tub she washed her feet of the dirt. Drying her feet she walked over to the dress took it off the hanger and began slipping it on. Lily nearly moaned at how good the silk sliding over her skin felt. Smiling she reached for the zipper in the back and frowned. No way. Just her luck she couldn't even feel it let alone reach it. Resigned she walked out of
