"I'm so sorry how you were treated here." Hera gripped on Vulcan. Vulcan rubbed his mother's back lovingly and kissed her cheek.

"All is forgiven, Mother. Hades has taken good care of me. We will rebuild what we have together. We should concentrate on Ember now." Vulcan looked at the both of us and smiled. Hera nodded as a Celestial Fairy stared too closely at us.

"Mine," Elea growled again, looking at one of the Fairies. Hera made the extra women leave the room while Elea continued to hold onto me tight. Once the threat was alleviated, Elea instantly calmed. I was the possessive one, and now Ember will have a possessive side too. This could be good or bad, but right now, it is a damn turn-on. I felt myself growl lowly as I kissed her ear.

"You are so damn sexy," Elea whispered. "I told Ember I was mad at her for not bonding with you yet. I'll get her warmed up to the idea. Then we can do it all night long, all sorts of ways.” Elea winked at me while tickling my shoulder, a Werewolf’s claiming spot. Fuck, having Ember leaving a mark on me would be sexy as hell.

Athena cleared her throat, causing Elea to glare at her. “Oh, sorry,” Elea relaxed slightly. “Thank you for helping. That barrier has been difficult to pull down.”

“Not a problem; I’m glad you have been working so hard to help Ember. She’s been through a lot.” Elea nodded solemnly.

“I don’t know our parents, and we need them. We need a pack and soon,” Elea rushed. “I don’t think I’m supposed to even come forward yet and take Ember’s body. This all feels so backward.” Athena pondered as she got up to walk to a nearby shelf. Finding a large black book with a moon engraved on the front, I knew what it was right away. It was a Werewolf bible or manual. It held more information than any of the smaller books I had on the shifters. I never came across them until my run-in with them some twenty three some years ago when they helped me get rid of my rogue demon.

“You will need a pack, whether your birthing pack or not. It says that other wolves need to help bring you forth while someone close to your human side stays close. Since Hades is the only one close to you, he would be the best option to help you both shift. It will be… disastrous if you don't find a willing pack to take you during the change." Elea whimpered in my arms while I held her close.

"What will happen?" Vulcan stepped forward, worried for Ember. He had become attached to her in a sisterly way, and that I was grateful, unlike Loukas, who was treading on the tight ropes on the fire lake. Blaze started yelling in his own chattering language, and Elea just waved at him with a smile. Blaze calmed and sat on the side of the bed, making sure he was away from me, to keep me from smacking him across the room.

"Ember and Elea will both die."

"She will not!" I snapped as I picked her off the bed. "We will find a pack, and everything will be fine." Elea looked up at me longingly and nuzzled her head into my neck. "I know of a friendly pack that will help her; they have a powerful sorceress there too. It will be fine." Elea held me tightly and whispered a small thank you in my ear.

"Hold on a second," Ares spoke up. "I've seen pups go through their shifts on their own in the woods when I worked with them during the shifter wars. Why is Ember any different? Why can't she do it on her own?"

"She's lost her memory of her early years living in a pack, and her wolf wasn't even present during this time. Most adolescents get their wolves at twelve but don't shift until 16 or 17. Ember is almost 21 and has spent no time with wolves. Werewolves learned by example and each other. Elea could break the wrong bones, shift too fast or too slow. Only those that have been changed from human to werewolf have been given the knowledge to shift correctly, and even that is a rare occurrence."

"She's so smart," I heard the sweet voice of my Ember whisper in my ear. Turning her head, I saw her beautiful green eyes. Hugging her close, I kissed her forehead.

"You're back," I breathed.

"I was always here." Ember petted my cheek. "I've just got a little bit more of me now, I guess. Sorry she attacked you. She's been wanting to say ‘mine; for ages." She rolled her eyes as she pulled me in for a peck on the lips. “No more lying and keeping stuff from me!” Great, I get scolded twice.

“I swear, tonight I’ll let you see everything about me. With one touch, you can see everything from my birth to where we are now.” Ember scrunched up her nose.

“I don’t think I wanna do that. That’d take forever. Just don’t lie anymore.” My forehead touched hers as I stood standing in the middle of the room.

"Everyone is staring," she whispered shyly. The vast amount of personality changes that Ember and Elea have was enough to give a whiplash.

"Right," Hera spoke. "Anyway, Ember, there is something else about you besides your Wolf that I wanted Athena to check on."

"The empathy gift?" Hera nodded.

"Elea acted like she didn't know what it was either," Ember said sadly. Athena walked closer to touch Ember's cheek.

"We will work on it together to block out the different emotions you feel." Athena backed away and looked both of us up and down. "Right now, however, I think you both need pants." All I had on was a pair of black boxer briefs which was sporting a big boner, and Ember's ass was almost hanging out.

"Damn, he got lucky," Ares grunted as he stomped out the door. "I need some Werewolf ass, too," he mumbled while Vulcan smacked him upside the head. Ember's legs tightened as her face grew red, as they walked out the door.

"Hera, a word?" Zeus walked in, still sporting a black eye. Getting carried away last night was good for him. He needed to remember who the firstborn was. Hera nodded and waved gently to Ember.

Hera had turned the guest quarters into our room since we wouldn't be leaving right away. Ember had to learn to control her abilities, and Athena was the only one that would be able to help. Hecate would be the better choice, but we will have to make do.

"I'm going to go shower." Ember let her legs unhinged from my body as she stepped on the carpeted floor. My arms didn't let go, however, and she laughed. "Hades, I'm gross. I didn't even shower before bed." An evil idea popped in my head as she pushed me away again. "I'll only be a minute."

Ember picked up her clothes from a nearby table and closed the door behind her. I wasn't waiting a minute. Not after her and Elea rubbing their sweet core all over my dick. Adjusting myself, I waited until the shower ran, and I heard her close the glass doors.

Sure, the bathrooms in my palace were great. Fireplaces, deep pools for a tub, steam showers, but there was one significant difference. The Celestial Kingdom had nothing but bright bathrooms, while mine was lower on the light. The Celestial Kingdom didn't cut any corners. I'll be able to see every damn thing on her body, down to the last freckle.

I pulled my shorts down before I even opened the door and snuck in. Ember's body was facing the opposite direction, so I got the perfect look at her pear bottom ass. Her breasts were large, so I could even see the outline of them as she showered. I didn't need any foreplay. I was going to explode just from looking at her.

Ember took the shaving cream and rubbed it down her leg. Each time she swiped the razor up her leg, her ass would be in the perfect position for me to fuck. The water dripped down her back as she finished and then began to wash her hair. The soap fell in chunks down her sweet body. The slight hum leaving her throat drew me near like a damn siren.

Opening the glass door, I walked in. I had watched for far too long. Ember had teased me, and she didn't even know it. Grabbing my dick and giving myself a few pulls to calm myself, I stood right behind her. My dick immediately grazed the top part of her ass as I slid my right hand around her waist and palmed her stomach.

"Hades?"
