The Unknown Lycan Princess - Chapter 139: Chapter 139

Third Person POV
Godly realm
Ares is pacing back and forth as he waits for Zeus and Fate. He doesn’t like leaving his grandson to fend for himself with those mongrels. He almost killed them all the moment they laid a hand on him. He was with Timberlink all the way until the rogues took him with them. He didn’t want to leave the boy unprotected even if Fate said it would be fine. That goddess is really getting to him. She is meddlesome and annoying. Always thinking she is right. He didn’t care that she was right all the time. That was besides the point. Arrogance. That’s the word. She was also very arrogant about it. “Why are you always pacing when I see you?” Fate said honestly curious what Ares was always pacing.
“Because I am always waiting around for you!” Ares shouted out.
There was a quick flash of light and at the exact moment of the light Ares started to shout out every curse word in every language he knew while rubbing his arm. “Stop shouting at Fate and show some respect boy! Or I’ll zap you again and this time it won’t be a warning zap or on your arm” Zeus said pointedly looking at an area of Ares body that caused Ares to shield himself as best he could.
“Where is Harmonia? Is she ready? We don’t want to lose our window of opportunity.” Fate said, completely ignoring the men and their staredown.
“I’m here and yes I am ready to help stop my sister.” An almost musical voice said in a low tone.
Everyone turned to see a beautiful woman standing there. She eyed them all curiously before her eyes landed on Fate, she said, “If it is as you say with Eris we should soon depart. She is a smart one and will soon realize that was too easy.”
“Alright. Ares, you know what to do.” Fate said in a disgusted tone. The gods were such manwhores. Well most goddesses were too though.
“Don’t go judging me for doing what I need to do to get her distracted enough to get caught.” Ares sneered at Fate.
“Enough children. Ares go do what you need to do. Harmonia be sure to keep Eris restrained.” Zeus commanded. Ares and Harmonia bowed slightly and disappeared to do as needed. Zeus turned to Fate and said, “Now explain to me why it was so important for Beth to drink my blood specifically.”
Fate studied Zeus for a moment running all the scenarios in her mind of how this would go if he was told now. After a few minutes she nodded her head and said, “Its because very soon she will….”
In the mortal realm
Eris walked into Baxter’s office where she left him. She was surprised to see he had his clothes on and was actually doing work behind his desk instead of screwing some random omega mongrel.
Baxter looked up from his paperwork when he heard his door opening. He saw Eris was standing in the doorway and sat up and placed his pen down. “What do you want? I have work to do!” He snapped.
Eris rolled her eyes and sauntered into the room taking slow deliberate steps just to irritate him more. When she finally made it to his desk he was visibly angry and Eris took sick pleasure in knowing she was the one to cause this reaction to him. “What are your plans now that we have the boy? Who are you sending in to leave the message? Choose better this time than you did for that little spy of yours. She double crossed you the first chance she got, and now she is aligned with those mutts.”
Baxter took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth, “We should send Felix to deliver the message. Maybe get him to kill Arthur and throw that whole pack into chaos without an Alpha.”
“That is dumb and you know it. They would have an Alpha and would do anything but make the pack fall to chaos. It would unite them. As much as you don’t want to hear it, your brother is well loved. Killing him would cause them to fight harder, you fool.” Eris said without care to Baxter’s feelings or ego taking a beating.
“If it wasn’t for your meddling ex my spy would have completed her task and we’d have the brat by now.” Baxter seethed. He still didn’t like the thought of his well laid out plan failing because of that oaf. He may not want Eris as a permanent fixture in his life, but she was his at this point in time. He continued with, “If you don’t think my plan would work then what do you suggest that is so much better.”
Eris smirked as she said, “We do a full on attack.”
Baxter looked at her like she was an i***t then said slowly, “Attack?”
Eris rolled her eyes. Leave it to a freaking mutt not to understand her vision. “Yes, an attack. We offer to do an exchange. Pup for pup. She gets her son and we get the girl. Though when the trade happens make sure she is alone doing the trade and then we attack. They will be caught off guard and not expect it.” Eris said smugly.
Baxter sat dumbfounded again. He thought about it and it wasn’t a bad idea. It will get him what he wanted AND he had a plan of his own forming to also hurt them where it is really going to hurt them. He turned his attention from his thoughts and looked to Eris, “When should we plan for this attack? A week’s time? Let them really miss and worry for the brat?”
“No. We will do this tomorrow. We don’t want to give them time to get reinforcements.” As Eris was explaining to Baxter about the timing for the attack she felt a tingle down her spine. She knew what that was. She used to live to feel that tingle. Ares was calling for her. She was curious why he wanted to talk to her. Her curiosity peaked enough she quickly ended her talk with Baxter so she could leave and see what Ares wanted. “So it is settled. You will gather your men and get in position tonight. Send a scout ahead with a message for the exchange and meet at the border lines. I will meet you there when it is time.” Eris turned on her heel after she finished talking. She left the compound so quickly.
Every second her anticipation grew. When she finally arrived at their meeting place she had butterflies in her stomach. The moment she saw Ares those butterflies erupted into a full blown frenzy. “Long time no see, beautiful.” Ares said in that deep timbre of his that always sent shivers down her spine.
