In the ethereal vastness of the Celestial realm, Helios stood beside the Mirror Pond. His golden eyes, radiant as the sun he was named for, gleamed with mischievous amusement. He watched the swirling silver surface of the pond, which rippled like liquid mercury, reflecting distant events from Obsidian. Beside him, Selene, the embodiment of the moon's gentle glow, observed with her usual serene expression, her ebony hair cascading like midnight over her shoulders.

"I knew Jungkook would exceed my expectations," Helios mused, a satisfied grin spreading across his chiseled face. He crossed his arms behind him, his voice echoing with divine authority. "He was given the chance to break his curse by that wretched witch, but he declined. Despite believing that Taehyung could never provide him with an heir and awaken his wolf, he never hesitated. He still chose him. That's what true and selfless love is, Selene."

Selene shifted her luminous gaze from the pond to Helios

Selene shifted her luminous gaze from the pond to Helios. Tilting her head slightly, she spoke in a soft whisper that carried the weight of her worry, "The physical combat is scheduled for ten days from now. Even if Taehyung were to become pregnant, it would take 5-6 weeks for the baby in his womb to develop a heartbeat. Jungkook will have to compete and fight against stronger alphas. Without Endymion, I fear that Jungkook will not only lose the competition but also risk being badly injured or even killed."

Helios leaned closer to the pond, his golden aura illuminating the silver surface. "Then it's time for a little intervention," he replied, a glint of mischief sparkling in his eyes.

"I know that look, brother," Selene murmured, a hint of apprehension lacing her usually serene voice. She'd known Helios for millennia; that glint in his eye meant trouble, beautiful, chaotic trouble. He was about to bend the rules, perhaps even shatter them, all for the sake of Taehyung and Jungkook.

Helios chuckled, a sound like wind chimes in a summer breeze. "Indeed, my dear sister. A little nudge, a subtle alteration of fate, nothing drastic."

"Just be careful, Helios. You wouldn't want the highest god to notice," Selene warned, her voice a soft, ethereal melody like moonlight filtering through leaves.  She regarded her brother with concern, her silvery eyes reflecting the countless stars scattered across the inky canvas of the night sky.
