I Scored Myself A Mate

"Smile for the cameras little wolves" Dionysus said happily and raised his glass as many magic lights blinded them.

"The what?" Ares whispered at Allias and the elf king sighed. They should have been out on the human world more often.

"He is talking about the memory capturers. In the human world they call them cameras. Just smile so we can get it over with!" He said between gritted teeth. Ares looked at him with a grown as he was getting scolded again for some unknown reason and faked a smile.

The wolves had actually quite outdone themselves in the few hours they had to set this up. The dining hall had changed completely, all of the tables had disappeared while only a big one existed in the middle of the room. They had beautiful table ware on it, made.of shiny hold and many complex bouquets with wild flowers. The table cloth was white and soft to the touch. Ares hadn't stopped playing with it from the moment they had sat down making Ea slap discretely his hand a few times.

"So is that enough?" Asmodeus whispered as he began to get tired with this whole situation. He still hasn't said anything about Alexander and Luke was watching his every move. If the strict angel found out about what the young wolf had done they would definitely take him away. This time Alexander was not with him. He had advised him to just rest in his room for now since he seemed to be feeling really bad about what he had done to Mark. The Alpha was happy that they had talked about them, that they had accepted their feelings but with the way things were now, losing Alexander seemed ten time worse.

"He won't uncover your secret." Dionysus whispered at Luke and the grey eyed man looked at him suspiciously. He held a crystal glasses filled with red wine and took a generous sip, the color staining his lips before he licked them.

"Why is that?" Luke asked the god not really believing that Asmodeus would keep his secret.

"Well, it's obviously not because of the kindness of his heart. He is just busy right now with other things. Also, he really doesnt care about Alexander attacking him." He said and the wolf eyes Asmodeus. He was sitting a few seats far away from him, a bored expression on his face as he played with his food. How could someone not care about being attacked? He wondered before his eyes returned on Dionysus?

"And you? What will you do?" Luke asked him and the god shrugged his shoulders. 

"I am good for now but who knows, one day I might get bored. We will see." He told him with a devilish smile but Luke was not joking, his expression was threatening, his grip on his spoon so strong it bend in the middle.

"If you try anything, I will kill you." He said and Dionysus laughed.

"I'd love to see you try." He told him, showing clearly that he found him simply entertaining. "Just eat your food. In a while if things go well this whole thing will be over and I will be going back home. Those kind of jobs are unbearable." He sighed and Suijin who was sitting next to him this whole time, listening to their conversation squeezed his eyes and looked at him.

"It's your responsibility." He told him and Dionysus nodded.

"Well my siblings in Olympus really did not give me another choice. Ares was holding me while Aphrodite was threatening to throw me off the mountain. I may be immortal but a fall like that...oh my." He said dramatically.

"They should have sent Apollo." Suijin amumbled. "He is elegant and beautiful."

"What?" Dionysus asked surprised and looked at the water god feeling insulted. "What am I then? Look at me! I am gorgeous." He said and Suijin ashook his head dissatisfied.

"Why are you people so loud back there. Finish your dinner we will have our statements taken in a while." Rafael said and Allias' eyes widened. 

"Is that so?" He said and shot up. "Well you don't need me anymore. Come on children let's go." He said and Ea immediately stood up while Ares looked at him with his face stuffed like a squiler. "Get up children" he told Ares with a strict look and the young elf swallowed his food in a hurry, coughing before he stood up.

"Yes, mother." He said and Ea hit him in the ribs with his elbow. He was sure he had a permanent bruise there by now. It would never leave. 

"You will have to excuse me too." Asmodeus said, dragging back his chair. "Too much clownery for today" he whispered at Rafael and his eyes widened.

"Asmodeus you..."

"If you don't let me leave I will cause a ruckus and kill everyone in her including those annoying people all around us." He whispered in the angels ear.

"Just go." Rafael gave up and both of them rushed outside, clearing up a path between the people and the flashing lights. Both of them were in a hurry and some how the one was trying to out run the other on the way to Mark's room. Allias looked at him with a hostile expression and the demon smiled showing all of his perfect teeth. They had hurried so much that in the end they reached Mark's room they were both slightly panting. Nothing had changed, the corridor was Emory and the door was closed but of them unaware about what was happening inside. 

"If you try to kill him I will kill you first." Allias said.

"You can't beat me like this. You can't use your powers." 

"I don't mind breaking the law."

"Oh, feisty. So sad that your kingdom will fall into ruins of you do. Yeah how is that going by the way? I heard that the old bald men don't want you that much."

"You hear a lot of things I see." Allias said and he laughed.

"I just like knowing stuff." Asmodeus said and for a while they stayed silent. 

After around thirty minutes though something changes. A loud scream echoed everywhere and it came directly from Mark's room. Both of the men outside rushed inside, not caring who will get to him first anymore and faced an unexpected sight. 

The room was completely empty. No Mark anywhere, just Theseus standing there with wide eyes as he looked at the bed Mark was laid.

"What happened?" Allias asked confused and Theseus looked at him.

"The moment he opened his eyes a woman appeared so fast, she grabbed him and they just disappeared." He said. 

He was an elf. He couldn't really sick or have human conditions but this time Allias felt it. Cardiac arrest, he would die. For sure.
