Droplets of Night Creatures

326. Ancestral Land

Arnold and Orion take Aruna around the palace. George and Matilda stay to watch over Khai and Kanaya.

From where he stood George and Matilda could watch Khai and Kanaya laughing. The werewolf army really spoiled them with various games to make the twins endlessly laugh.

" They're cute and adorable kids. As they get older, their ability to interact with others increases" George said with a smile.

" What surprised me earlier was that they were not at all afraid of the sighting of a real werewolf and wolf in front of them" Matilda added.

" The soul and blood of the werewolf flowed profusely within them Dear. That's why they're not afraid to see night creatures like us." said George.

Khai and Kanaya are playing with werewolves and wolves. Playing with the figure of a werewolf-headed and human-bodied man overgrown with dense fur does not make the twins afraid. It was as if there was an inner bond between them even though they spoke a different language.

After giving Khai and Kanaya a chance to play with an army of werewolves, George and Matilda ask the twins to enter the palace.

" Enough the kids. Now we follow Mother yuk..," George asked as he stretched out his hands.

Khai swiftly jumped into George's arms, followed by Kanaya, who entered Matilda's arms. Then the two toddlers waved their hands at the werewolf army that had accompanied him to play earlier.

" Drug Om..., drug Aunty...!" khai and Kanaya said together with a smile.

" Dah Khai.., drug Kanaya..," said all the wolf troops while replying to the hand of the twins.

A moment later the werewolf army shot away leaving the place to return to their respective positions.

Khai and Kanaya are made to be amazed by the way the werewolf army went. While George and Matilda just smiled at the cute behavior of the twin toddlers.

" Lost...!" khaizuran.

" Yes gone...!" sahut Kanaya did not lose his excitement.

" Om and Aunt should return to their respective places. Now Khai and Kanaya are following Mommy along with Grandpa ya..," said Matilda.

Khai and Kanaya nodded their heads. Although it has been almost a year without each other, but both look familiar with George and Matilda. They laughed when they were invited to meet the Mother.

" Yes...!" call Khai and Kanaya together when you see Aruna in the backyard of the palace.

Aruna turned and smiled as her two children were in George and Matilda's arms.

" Our children are awake. Nice to play with Om and Aunt...?" ask Aruna while grabbing Khai and Kanaya.

" Good but lost..," said Khai with a funny mimic.

" Lost, what's missing...?" ask Aruna.

" Om the same Aunt..," said Kanaya with a sad face.

Matilda explained what happened to Aruna. Everyone who heard Matilda's explanation laughed.

" Same aunt will have to work again. So Khai and Kanaya can't be bothered ya..," said Aruna who is taken by both her children.

Then Arnold took his family into the dining room. They enjoyed a special dinner. Khai and Kanaya were seated in a special chair with a servant by her side.

Aruna was happy because she could finally set foot on her ancestral ground. Aruna smiled observing the beauty of the palace.

" Why smile yourself, son...?" ask Orion.

" Oh yeah. That means we're the same kid..," Orion said.

" At first I thought because I was influenced by the fairy tale Mama read to me at bedtime, so I could dream of this palace. But I'm also confused why the same dream keeps repeating itself. And when I saw this palace from a close distance, even going into it, I understood that my dream was a sign that I was related to all of this.", said Aruna with sparkling eyes.

" The dream is to remind you to get to know your ancestral land. There was a war between clans here until Arnold decided to let you stay there. Arnold didn't want you to come here and get hurt in that clan war" George said.

" Now the conditions are much different. If Arnold used to come to visit you but now it is We who are asked to come here." Matilda added.

" True Aruna. I purposely kept you there because I didn't want you to get hurt. Thankfully, everything was finally under control. Such safe conditions have been going on for a long time. Even Orion has been able to go back to this palace," said Arnold.

" But I also ran away because Dad's loyal troops thought I was going to stage a coup." Orion sidestepped while sneering.

Arnold, George and Matilda laughed at Orion's words. They remember how panicked all the wolf troops were when Arnold announced his resignation from his post as king. The werewolves thought Orion was the one who urged the father to retreat until there was a search every time Orion came to visit his father.

" I'm sorry for your discomfort, son.." said Arnold, patting Orion on the back gently.

" Forget Well. I'm fine,." Orion said with a smile.

Aruna smiled as she looked at everyone one by one. Their ages are far away. But Aruna was amazed that they performed at the same age.

As if he understood what was in Aruna's head, Arnold explained.

" The age of werewolves in our clan reaches hundreds of years Nak. Few died before they reached two hundred years old. That is why some people call us immortal beings because of our long life span. It makes sense, because with age so far we can witness various changes and turmoil that occur in all parts of the world. Let's just say we are witnesses to the history of every human civilization" Arnold said with a smile.

" So you're not surprised if your Grandpa and Dad look more like big sister than Dad and Son." George said with a laugh.

" That's also why We ask you to call Us Om and Auntie. Because We feel like we are young and not worthy of being called Grandpa or Grandma." Matilda said.

Aruna smiled as she nodded. But a second later he remembered the Kautsar.

" So me and Kautsar.., "the speech of Aruna was interrupted when Arnold cut off quickly.

" You don't have to worry, son. You will appear in accordance with the age of humans in general. When the Kautsar is old, you will be old. But when the Kautsar dies, you may be alive and long-lived. You can come back here to continue living or even open a new life sheet with another man. Because by the time it happened your appearance had come back as young as it is now" Arnold said.

Aruna looked stunned to hear the grandfather's explanation. Aruna could not imagine herself marrying another man after the Kautsar. For Aruna, Kautsar is his true love. The only love and forever.

" Don't think about it now, son. Enjoy your life with your little family. Let everything flow like water. Thank you for what you have now because everything will not be the same if the time comes later," Orion said wisely.

" Yes Father..," said Aruna with a trembling voice.

" alright. Enough talking. Now it's time for us to go home because I don't want to bear the anger of Kautsar when he saw his wife's child disappear without news.," Orion said half-jokingly.

Everyone laughed at his words. After hugging each other they return in the same way to the hotel where Aruna and her small family stayed.

Lucky when you arrive at the hotel, it is still dark and quiet. Aruna breathed a sigh of relief as it turned out that Kautsar had not returned. That meant she didn't have to explain anything to her husband.

Kautsar returned to his hotel room when the clock struck seven in the morning. At that time the twins had woken up and perfumed after being bathed by Aruna.

Aruna welcomed her husband with a warm embrace to make Kautsar happy. But the Kautsar must painstakingly digest the twins' words as the two scramble to recount their experiences meeting werewolf troops last night.
