-HER-

From the next day, I was more careful.

Since the King was now confirmed that there were fake orders being circulated through the camp to confuse the troops, the seal had been changed.

It took me only half a day to steal one of the new seals before I went around writing more such orders to create even more chaos in the camp. Everyone was beyond confused at this point. The patrolling pattern and other plans of the troops were all over the place at this moment, making them weaker.

I was enjoying this more than I should and the looks on their faces were just priceless. I crossed paths with Rednor several times and each time, he tried to corner me but I always managed to escape him one way or the other.

It wasn't that hard fooling the Drakkons for me. I was a wolf after all and my senses were much sharper than theirs. The only advantage the Drakkons had over me was that they were huge in number but that wasn't an issue for me as long as I stayed low and continued to play with the king. Though this also had disadvantages because the king was getting more and more desperate each day to sleep with me.

A lot of the Drakkons were suspicious of me but being the King consort had his own perks. One of them being that no one could accuse or question me no matter what, even if they knew that I was pretending to be someone else.

Though that didn't stop Rednor from tailing me through the camp whenever I exited my tent. I still managed to dodge him.

I didn't stop collecting information and sending out messages to Ezekiel but I received none back. This was what kept eating me away constantly. I had no way of knowing what he was actually planning to do. All I could hope was that he doesn't repeat what he did just a few nights ago. I just wish to get over with this soon and return to Zaeris.

Until then, I practiced playing the wife of the King because I had a feeling that I'd actually be one soon.

~x~

Something terrible was being planned a few mountains away from where the Drakkon's camp was located.

Even the gods had descended from the heavens to watch it.

Behind a huge mountain, at its foot was where another camp was set up. It was the Lycan King's camp. It was way smaller than that of the Drakkons but it had double the energy and the commotion.

The Lycan king stood at a slightly high level of the mountain, looking down at the lycans and the wolves, ordering them to work faster. He stood tall and proud, seething. His eyes followed each and every member of the camp building something even the gods couldn't have imagined at first.

The gods— they sat a bit higher on the same mountain that looked down at the camp. They were far enough to be not heard by the Lycan King but they were able to see everything that the Lycan King was making the camp do.

"Now, would you look at that?" Inanna muttered as she crossed her hands over her chest and gazed down at the camp with a combination of surprise and anger.

"What is he doing?" Cupid asked cluelessly. Aphrodite remained quiet for a while before she giggled in response. "I... I don't understand," Cupid stuttered.

"You don't have to," Aphrodite smirked as she raised her glass towards Cupid who looked more bewildered than ever but he still continued to pour more wine into the goddess' glass.

Inanna muttered a curse under her breath as she glanced at the humungous structure that was being built.

"Isn't it poetic?" Aphrodite giggled. Inanna looked more and more irritated by every passing minute.

"What's poetic? Is Apollo in this too?" Cupid asked but his questions remained unanswered.

"Remind me not to get involved with you guys again," Inanna muttered, making Aphrodite muttered.

"Why not? Aren't you having fun? I mean look at this! You have to agree that this is entertaining! Even Zeus keeps asking me for the updates,"

"Of course he would," Inanna muttered.

"All the gods are watching, Inanna, and not only that they have started betting," Aphrodite informed.

"On what?" Inanna asked, confused.

"They're betting on how long would it take for the two of them to mate. I just cannot wait to see the union happen. It would be like fire and ice,"

"You guys do not understand the gravity of the situation," Inanna told Aphrodite as she shook her head, "Once this is over, Ezekiel is going to come after us and you know that he doesn't even spare gods," Inanna sounded somewhat scared as she said that but the other goddess just didn't seem to care.

"Pft," she responded, sounding a bit drunk, "You worry too much. He wouldn't be able to do anything to us," '

"How could you be so sure?" Inanna asked.

"The river. We could always use it to distract him," Aphrodite suggested. Inanna fell terribly silent after she heard the goddess' plan. She couldn't believe that Aphrodite was willing to go to such an extreme.

"Are you sure you want to wake him up, Aphrodite?" Inanna asked in shock, "It's already hard to deal with Ezekiel. I don't want another,"

At this, Aphrodite giggled.

"Again, you worry too much,"

"I should,"

"Oh, Inanna... you have some great powers and you should learn to use them properly,"

"What do you mean by that?" Inanna asked grimly. Aphrodite said nothing but only giggled, leaving Inanna more puzzled than ever.

They all fell silent for a while as they sat there and watch the Lycan king shouting at his lycans and the wolves to work faster. They could hear the impatience in his voice.

"I cannot wait for it to happen," Aphrodite giggled.

"Let's check on her," Inanna spoke before the three of them disappeared in puffs of smoke. They soon appeared in the Drakkon camp a few mountains away. It didn't take them long to find the Drakkon king and his new obsession.

"Well, well, look at that," Inanna muttered as they watched the Drakkon king trying to kiss the she-wolf, "looks like someone is finding it hard to keep it in their pants,"

"Let's make it harder for them then," Aphrodite suggested. Before Inanna could object, Cupid had already shot an arrow towards the Drakkon king.
