Welcome to the Party
Chapter 19

Ephus shook his head at the three beautiful goddesses before him. He could also see the extreme worry etched on their faces.

Aphrodite, Artemis, and Athena seemed even more concerned after Ephus had issued the challenge that he had to Ares.

Even as he stood there, he felt Thoth suddenly reappear. "Brother? Are you looking to get defeated? To make Ares as angry as you have will only benefit him." Thoth let out a sigh as he nodded. "I have yet to see you make a mistake concerning any gods. Remember, all your brothers and wives are ready to defend you."

Ephus stared at Thoth momentarily, then the god's mouth dropped open, and he nodded. "I wish for that to happen if you can make it happen. I thought that, as much as you know, it would be possible."

Thoth's head slowly nodded, "It will be as you wish, brother. Though I must speak to Ra if it is to pass." With that, Thoth vanished, leaving the three Greek goddesses confused.

"I take it you are not about to discuss what transpired?" Athena asked as soon as she regained her confused senses.

"No, I am afraid I can't, even though it concerns you three more than most," Ephus said.

All three goddesses had an almost pouting look on their faces as Ephus waved at them. With a quick turn, he went back to Anhur.

"We should continue. If I am to implement this plan, I need to be as good as possible," Ephus told Anhur.

Anhur nodded, "As I stated before," Anhur said with a slight bow to Ephus. You are to a point where you are almost a challenge to me. I have watched the battles you and Ares have had. It would be prudent if you also learned his moves. I am sure you going at him in his style might give you the edge to defeat him."

"I have to say that is an excellent idea," Ephus said with a broad smile.

"Good," Anhur said, "we have a day left, more than enough time as fast as you learn."

Almost twelve hours later, both Anhur and Ephus stopped. It wasn't fatigue, hunger, or thirst that stopped them; it was seven pairs of angry eyes.

Anhur pointed to behind them. "I am afraid that we are finished, brother." Anhur almost whispered. I'd rather face millions of enemies than the wrath that will befall us if we continue." With a bow, Anhur said, "I have trained you well, brother. You are almost as good as I am after only a few days. Farewell." With that, Anhur vanished.

Bast stepped forward, poking Ephus in the chest. "you have been ignoring your wives." Here, Bast turned back to look at Quinn Markov, with her arms crossed on her chest, "ALL of your wives."

Ephus nodded as he looked at each of his wives, then turned back to Bast. "My Bast, I have had no choice; I had to be as ready as possible. As angry as I have made Ares, I know he will bring everything he can against me."

"Husband," Bast started, then gasped. Ephus grabbed her, kissing her with a hot, searing kiss that they both felt deep within their essence.

Momentarily stunned, Bast swayed as Ephus quickly kissed all his wives the same way. A smirk came to his lips as they all reacted the same. Ephus then started into his home. A body suddenly blocked his way as he stared into Bast's eyes.

"Not this time, husband. It is far more important for us to brush it aside. If you are harmed in this battle, it could spell the end of the Hellenes realm," Bast said, trying to sound as stern as she could.

Ephus felt movement as he noticed that all his wives were around him.

"You know that they are all right," came another voice that made him groan.

"I think he does, though, like most human thinking, he refuses to acknowledge it." Another voice came in, making him groan even more.

With a turn, he was shocked to see that not only was Isis there, but so was Hera. Then, of course, so were the three Greek goddesses: Aphrodite, Artemis, and Athena.

"WHAT, in the hell is going on?" Ephus said as he stared at the twelve females staring at him warily.

Isis and Hera smirked as they both came forward. "For the first time, both of our realms have a common thread that has united us," Isis said.

"A common thread? What prayer to tell is that?" Ephus asked, feeling foolish that he couldn't think of it.

Hera shook her head as she looked at Isis. " You are stuck in your human thinking, aren't you? You are the common thread. You saved the Egyptian realm. You have done more in a few weeks to heal the Greek realm than has ever been done. You have united the realms, a first-ever."

"Me?" A shocked Ephus said. "No, I am..."

"NO!" Bast almost shouted. "I have felt what you were for many years. It took so long to bring your power out to free me and my sister. You are not common, not a human, not a god; no, you seem to be the best of both worlds."

Ephus looked around at the female faces looking at him. All nodded their agreement, especially his human wife, Quinn.

"I have never felt that I was..." Ephus started.

"As I said," Bast interrupted him. "You are far more than you think you are."

Ephus could only stand there staring at all the females. Everything that they had revealed was running through his mind. It was so strange that they thought he was so important; all he was doing was what he thought was proper and necessary. Damn! They were right; it was just that he'd never seen himself that way.

Momentarily lost in his thoughts, he didn't see all the females as they rushed to keep him there. His first indication was that he was held fast, unable to move.

Ephus's eyes were wide when he couldn't vanish either. "As you can see," Isis said next to his ear," if we are touching you and don't want to leave, neither will you."

Ephus nodded, "You'll still have to let me go, though. I must stop Ares; the only way to accomplish that is to battle with him." Ephus said as he looked into the eyes of all of them.

"Unfortunately, I know my son far better than you do," Hera told Ephus. You know you will have to defeat him to finish this."

"I have come to that realization," Ephus said. Look, I know I haven't spent as much time with you as I should." He turned toward Hera, "I am afraid I know him quite well, too. Though, I do have a plan in place to that end."

"It isn't that we do not believe you, as your wives and potential wives," Bast said, looking at Artemis, Aphrodite, and Athena. Ephus almost had to do a double take as he was sure all three were blushing. "We need assurances that you will be around in the coming years."

Ephus started to open his mouth and then snapped it shut. "I can only promise that I will not go into anything without planning. I will not do anything that might cause my end or any of yours. I'm sorry, but that’s the best I can do, especially with one as dangerous as Ares."

Bast and the rest of his wives sighed as they nodded their agreement. A movement towards the back of the females caught Ephus's attention. The rest parted to allow Serket to come forward.

"Husband," she started, a slight blush on her face. She placed his hands on her stomach and continued, "I do not wish to raise this little one alone; plus, you promised that we would again. I am holding you to that."

Serket blushed even more as all her sisters had giant smiles.

"Husband," Bast said, a severe look on her face. "Do not force my hand; I will go to Osiris to bring you back."

"I am sure my brother Hades would help in that respect; he owes me many favors," Hera said, eyeing Ephus. "All your wives and possible wives would wish to punish you." This last, Hera said, a strange smile on her lips.

Ephus nodded his head, sure that all of them would indeed punish him in some way.

"We all wanted you to know just how we felt. We may not be able to stop you, but we can make life difficult afterward if need be," Bast said, nodding to all her sisters and the Greek goddesses, who then nodded to Ephus, popping out. The last three left were Bast, then Isis, and finally Hera.

"I was hoping you could look in on Enyo before you go, if possible?" Hera asked, a look of hope in her eyes. "Much about her has changed, though. I am sure that you can feel that."

Ephus nodded and touched his head, sending a message to his human wife. Finished, Ephus took Hera’s hand as they both vanished. Moments later, they appeared in a large room.

"This is my home within our realm," Hera told him. Still grasping his hand, Hera led him deeper into the building. They soon stopped before an open archway to another room. Inside, Ephus saw a rather sad-looking, though very busy Enyo. Looking at Hera, Ephus nodded, then entered.

Looking back, he saw that Hera had disappeared, shrugging; he walked toward a now startled Enyo.

"I have done nothing wrong, and you need to come here," Enyo stated, then realized that she was staring into Ephus's eyes. "I know not why; I have the strongest compulsion to strip the clothes from my body. It also seems that the more I fight it, the stronger it gets."

However, Ephus quickly averted his eyes, realizing it might be too late. "I am sorry, Enyo; I have felt the changes that have taken hold in your heart." Reaching out, he touched her momentarily, watching her skin and eyes glow.

Enyo looked shocked. Ephus groaned when he saw that she was staring into his eyes again.

"I must fight this; I am a goddess, not a simple slave. I..." Here, Enyo stood stock still. She said in a barely audible whisper, "Forgive me; I will disrobe immediately."

Ephus could only watch as she rapidly removed her coverings. Ephus had to suck in a deep gasp when she was completely naked. Dear god, he thought, she is gorgeous! By all that was holy, she was as beautiful as Aphrodite; that was the biggest shock.

Still, somewhat in shock, it wasn't 'til she had half his clothes off that he snapped out of it.

"I have to have you now. I need to feel you buried deep within me." Enyo said, panting as she tried to rip Ephus's clothes from his body. "I need you, sir, take me, take me now!"

Ephus was shocked when she pulled him down to the floor, then got above him, impaling herself on him. A tiny shriek escaped her lips; then, she drove her tight sheath further and further down his length.

What the hell, Ephus thought? She is so tight, almost as tight as... "You have never been with a male, Enyo?"

Enyo blushed slightly, though; she concentrated almost entirely on the task.

Ephus grabbed her hips, stopping her motion. This caused her to actually whine and then try to force her hips to start again.

"I'll let go as soon as you tell me," Ephus said sternly. This caused Enyo to try and force her way out of Ephus's hands. At the same time, she was also trying to drive her hips down to take more of Ephus.

"Please, sir," Enyo whispered, "Please, I need you; I am so empty, fill me." She was saying the whole time that she was still trying to get more of him within her.

"Tell me, then I will let you go," Ephus answered.

"I...I" heard Enyo's head drop, "yes, sir, I have never been with a male. As a war goddess, I haven't had time nor want. Not 'til I met you." Enyo tried to look away, though Ephus grabbed her chin and looked at her.

"Do not feel ashamed; I am honored that you have given me this gift," Ephus said, causing Enyo to look harder at him and see that he was telling the truth.

"I thought you would be disgusted by me, that once you found out, you would leave me wanting. I was afraid for only the second time in my existence." Here, several tears fell on Ephus as he finally let her go.

With a shout of glee, Enyo began to thrust harder and harder. Ephus could feel that she was becoming wetter as his member was sliding in a lot easier.

Much like his time with Serket, he felt her first orgasm, though he could swear she didn't stop there. Ephus seemed to think she started on the first and then rolled into many more.

Ephus couldn't tell if he was hurting her or pleasuring her to the extreme. Then again, from the sound of her lustful panting, he figured she was feeling great pleasure.

Ephus figured she was starting to grow a little tired, so he rolled both of them until he was on top.

Enyo's eyes popped open as she gasped when Ephus drove his member even deeper within her. "Oh, Ephus! Fill me, fill me! Never have I felt as full as I do now."

Not needing to be told twice, Ephus began to plunge in as fast as he could. He could feel her starting to build toward her next orgasm or set of them. He could also feel the pressure growing within his scrotum.

Ephus wasn't sure he could hold it back 'til Enyo reached hers. Only a few moments later, Ephus felt her tighten around him as she started to groan, thrash, and then began yelling.

Ephus groaned as he felt his semen rise, then flood Enyo's Vagina. "Ephus! I feel it, so warm, so wet!"

Ephus drove in as deep as he could as he felt his release flood Enyo to overflowing.

A lustful, still panting Enyo pulled Ephus into a tight hug. She whispered in his ear, "Again? I have never felt as wonderful as I just did. Even my first kill wasn't as satisfying as this."

"Yes, we can, though this time I wish to pleasure you," Ephus said with a smile.

Two hours later, Ephus left Enyo with a huge smile. Enyo hadn't moved to cover or clean up. Ephus's semen was leaking from her, which she didn't care to clean up while it was still warm.

Ephus was walking toward the front of the building to confront Hera. Stopping within a few feet of her, Ephus crossed his arms, waiting for her to turn.

"So, I see that my daughter is no longer untouched. This is going..." Hera stopped when she turned, seeing the look of anger on Ephus's face. "Is something wrong?" A now worried Hera said.

"You set her up with me; I do not appreciate being used like that!" Ephus growled. "I should," here, Ephus looked directly into Hera's eyes; at first, she laughed, then a worried look grew on her face. Her arms started moving independently, taking the clothes off her body. Then, a need began to grow between her legs, not overpowering, though it caused an intense craving within her.

Fully naked, Hera started to reach for Ephus, who put his hand out to keep her away.

"In case you haven't noticed, I have much more control than I did. Though not as bad as the first time, you still want me bad. As your punishment for this? You can stay like this for a while." Ephus said calmly to her. Nodding, he immediately vanished, causing Hera to scream in sexual frustration.

Ephus appeared not far from where Zeus was sitting. "You might want to see to your wife, Zeus. You might say I left her very frustrated." Then, just as fast, Ephus was gone.

Zeus, with a look of surprise on his face and that of his sons, shook his head. A moment later, he felt, rather than heard, Hera scream out in frustration. A sly smile spread across his face as he waved his hand, then vanished.

Ephus appeared in the living room of his home, sitting to try to enjoy some quiet time. A few moments later, he received a thought message from Dolos and Apate stating they were ready. Then, one from Hades, Poseidon, and Demeter, though when Hestia stated she was also prepared, Ephus was surprised.

With a shake of his head, he told his wife that he had to go and that this was pretty much over after today. Looking into his eyes, she kissed him passionately.

"I am holding you to that, though I know that you, being you, others may soon come calling for your help. I hope that they don't take too much of your time. You have many children that need their father." His human wife Quinn told him.

"I will remember all of you, my wives and children, who have been my greatest accomplishment," Ephus said as he deeply kissed Quinn. He then smiled as she stared at him, a little concerned; suddenly, her eyes were glazed.

Ephus sighed, placed a hand on his head, and then, with a final look, he vanished.

A few moments later, he appeared on the outskirts of the grotesque, blood-covered battlefield. With a shake of his head, he looked at the massive body parts trying to re-integrate with their bodies.

With a nod, he pulled the green sword at his side. "It is almost time; I hope you can do as you said." He said to the sword as time seemed to stop.

The dark-haired Egyptian woman appeared, stopping herself as she started to kneel. "We may be many things; we do not break our oaths. We would not have said what we did if we could not. The Titans ensured we had massive power so we would survive, failing and suffering more. You do not have second thoughts about this?"

"No, I have never wavered from what I know I must do. I know this is the only way to stop Ares's rampage forever. If we fail, then more than we three will suffer." A sad Ephus said.

"While the battle rages on, briefly, my brother will take you through what must be done. It was a true honor to have known you; never have we met a human or godling like you. We will miss your company." Amaunet said a small tear fell from her eye.

With a nod, the woman disappeared, replaced with the green sword. With a new determination, Ephus nodded his head as he winked out.

Ares was having a grand time; the blood, flying body parts, plus screams were pure pleasure to him. Ah, he thought, if only every day went like this one, every day would be good,

A sudden whoosh of power drew his attention a few yards away. "So, you're not as afraid as I thought you were. Here to receive your defeat at the hands of a true sword master?" Ares said with a sadistic laugh.

This, in turn, caused Ephus to laugh: " That phrase is so funny coming from the dunce of war's mouth—a longer-practicing swordsman, maybe, though a master, please. I've seen insects that can fight with their stingers better than you, Master Ha! It doesn't matter, though, whether or not you defeat me. My child, your nephew will revenge me. Oh yes, your sister was more than delighted to carry..."

"You LIE! She would never lay with you!" Ares spit.

"She not only did, she greatly enjoyed it!" Ephus sneered as he watched Ares draw the black sword.

"I will destroy you!" a highly angered Ares shouted as he rushed forward, the sound of the swords clanging together.
