Chapter 246 - 246

Allias entered the room he shared with Theseus like a strom, furious and in a hurry only to face his lover sitting on the bed together with Ea and Ares as they played a very heated game of cards. He looked at them his jaw tensed as they stopped moving and Theseus smiled cutely hoping that their king wouldn't explode. Ea picked up the cards from the bed in a hurry and not having somewhere to put them he threw them in the floor. Ares sighed as he stared at them.

"The only round I was winning. Great." He mumbled and Ea smacked the back of his head. "Ouch!" He screamed and soon the ekeves noticed that Mark was standing behind their king. So he was the one who had caused his wrath. The elf king grabbed his friend from his arm and sat him down at the edge of the soft bed. Mark crossed his legs and looked all over around him, his eyes spotting every single detail in the room as he tried desperately to avoid Allias' piercing stare. 

"So what happened? Did they catch Sam?" Theseus asked. "Allias I need to talk to you. Now that this deal with the wolves is over there something very important...." 

"What deal Mark?" Allias asked his best friend, completely ignoring Theseus'words. The general sighed and closed his eyes. He had been putting off this matter for so long he was sure destruction would come the moment their king found out. He was doomed and there was no way out. For the moment he closed his lips and sat back at the head of the bed swing the elf scold his friend. 

"Well you see..."

"I told you to stay away from him didn't I ? Do you think I am doing this because I have free time and wonder who to torture? This man right here everyone..." He told the rest of the elves pointing at him. "....has been stuck but by the hip with the demon king. Asmodeus." He said and Ea was heard gasping. As it seemed the red haired boy was the only one that who didn't grasp the severity of the situation.

"For a human, you are fearless or incredibly dumb." Ares commended and Mark raised his eyebrow shocked. Well, that was a very nice comment he thought and crossed his arms over his chest. 

"Don't give me that look. Don't you dare " Allias told him. "What deal Mark? What did he ask of you?" He repeated his question and Mark sighed. If Allias found out he would defi itely not leave him alone until they left the compound. He is stuck here though, surrounded by all these people, their eyes glued on him and he sealed his lips.

"He really didn't do anything to me. He even saved me so where is the big deal?" Mark asked knowing how stupid he looked right now. Allias sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose he placed his palms in Mark's shoulders, reaching his eye level as he spoke.

"He will kill you." He told him, wording every word slilwy for him to understand. "Do you get that?"

"Allias, why don't you let him do what he wants?" Theseus asked and his lover looked at him stunned, offended even. He left mark alone for a while as he sat there like prisoner and headed towards to where the general stood. He tilted his head to the side and smiled coldly, Theseus returning the smile in the exact same way. 

"Are you stupid or are you just pretending to be Theseus?" He asked and the general scoffed as he stood up."Why don't I let him do what he wants? So if he wants to just go and die I should let him? It's Asmodeus for fucks sake how could you say that?"

"Well if that's what he wants to do them let him you can't control everyone. Let him follow his instincts. If he feels like Asmodeus is not a danger to him he must know something we don't. Stop trying to have everything the way you want. He is a grown man and can think on his own. You warned him there is nothing else to do. Will you tie him in this room?" Theseus said ironically and Allias shook his head. He pointed at Theseus , his fingertip touching his chest as he provoked him.

"So if he is wrong who will save him, huh? You or Ares ? I can't use my powers and everyone seems to enjoy getting in trouble all the time. So tell me if he mistaken about the demon who will fight him to save him? Because clearly none of you can!"he shouted and Mark stood up. 

"I think that's enough. " He said, mainly wanting to stop Allias' and Theseus' arguement. He didn't want to be the reason these two ended up punching each other. "There is no reason to be this worried Allias . He didn't ask anything dangerous of me I swear. All he said was that he wanted to spend the day with me. Tomorrow. I won't leave the compound and in case anything happens I will run away. I promise so please don't be this worried." Allias looked at his best friend and then his lover disappointed. He breathed out, his chest heavy as no one could understand how burdened he was with everything. He wanted to just go back home and deal with his kingdom but every time something new would pop off making it hard for him to find peace even for a day. He didn't answer, he just walked towards the door and left, not wanting to be around any of them. If Mark didn't wish to understand it was his problem. Allias didn't want to deal with the guilt of being powerless again though. 

He knew Theseus would follow him so he took a turn and found himself deeper in the compound. He would always get lost when he used to live here, this place always seemed depressing to him. As he walked away from his problems though a new one appeared right in front of him. 

It was Luke with Alexander. They were probably heading to his room seing how relieved they were the moment they saw him.

"Allias we need your help." Luke said and the elf king felt like someone had thrown a boulder on him. Heavy, pushing him to the ground. He blinked, thinking very serious of just disappearing but he didn't. He couldn't the moment he looked into Alexander's eyes and noticed his immense worry he was unable to just run away. He pushed back his hair, restraint himself from just pulling them and looked at them, smiling as he forced himself. 

"What is it?"

"It has to do with Sam's death and about me being the next Alpha. I know our species had been enemies ever since the war but I want you to consider to sign a treaty with us. Become allies." He said and Allias' green eyes widened. He scoffed thinking that Luke was joking but his grey eyes were deadly serious. 

"That is quite impossible Luke." He told him coldy and the wolf gasped. Not expecting his answer.
