The King's Gamma (Previously The King's Beta)

"We would be happy to take them." The exiled next to Deimios said.

"That would be great. Be sure not to break up the families." I answered before turning to the clans. "I will be finishing up with the exiled first, you may go back and wait for me."

"But..."

I smiled at Bellamy, though my eyes shot daggers at him. "Bellamy will escort you. You may go back, and wait for me."

"Fine. Let's go."

They left soon after, the leader of the Bears promising a banquet in my honor.

I watched as the lizard men decided where they wished to go when the leaders and their closest guards who had recently joined walked up to me. I stood slightly shorter than the eight men in front of me.

"You seem to be a good negotiator." one of them said.

"I merely dislike my plans ruined." I answered.

"What would your plans be, little lady?" Deimios asked as he smiled cockily at me.

"They would be none of your concern." I smiled back. I turned my attention to his friends. "Be sure to split Xena's treasures so that you may be able to accommodate her children. If you need anything else, send a notice to the Werewolf Kingdom addressed to Macey King, include your concern as well as your area. I will come if I'm able. Also, if you wish to join on the treaties, be sure to send a request. I will handle the details of any and all contracts to accommodate both the werewolves as well as your clans."

"Thank you, your Celestial Highness." The other three leaders said before they turned and returned to their newly acquired clansmen.

"This is the leviathan eater?" Asked the larger dragon next to Deimios.

"Be nice Hives. She's also half Celestial."

"Celestial? How did that happen?"

"Mom preferred wolf dicks."

Hives colored red and coughed while Deimios smirked, slapping him on the back.

"Truth is my mother was my father's true mate. Since werewolves have a destined mate, he literally only persued her. My mother, even if she did not feel it like my father did, she did show interest in him only. After many miscarriages and an adoption, I was born."

"And your grandfather?"

"He disowned my mother the moment she eloped." I smiled at the thought.

"Huh, so even one of us could be bonded to some female from a race with a predestined mate."

"Probably."

"And you? You have dog blood. Think you have a predestined?"

Deimios' eyes turned to me, his expression less approachable than before.

"I have one. I've already tracked his scent and I know his identity. We just have yet to meet in person."

"What is his race?"

"He is a wolf. Whether he would accept me for what I am, I am not sure."

"You are a beautiful woman. Who would not accept that?" Deimios asked, though his expression was far from complimentary and his smile was gone.

"Many of the wolves still dislike dragons. Many of them dislike me for having dragon blood. Most have come to accept me, but that is all due to the fact that I keep the treaties from crumbling to shit."

Hives looked at Deimios with keen interest while Deimios seemed to watch me.

"Why don't you join us for something to drink, Macey?" Hives asked, his eyes looking to Deimios for approval.
