Over the next few days, three faes were included in the council of the Kingdom of Pegasii. With their inclusion, things became much easier. These faes brought more for them to work with and it was anticipated that Pegasii would become a popular destination for faes who wanted to explore more. However, the faes restricted their visits to Pegasii. They chose not to go to other kingdoms including Draka.
Eltanin left with Tania for Draka after Flora created a portal for her. Flora didn't allow her to create a portal because she was pregnant and it was said that the portal creation used some of your core energy. Flora also went back with Tania, though Tabit asked her if she could stay back.
"I can't, Lady Tabit," Flora replied. "I will stay with Tania because I see Lady Kinshra in her. It wouldn't be possible for me to leave her alone."
ραпdǎ Йᴏνêl(сòm) Tabit's eyes became moist. "I understand Flora."
Back in Draka, Eltanin became so busy that he didn't have time to breathe. He would come late from his meetings and other affairs.
When Tania was six months pregnant, he had gone to meet Rigel and Lerna as well on Tania's request. The king and queen of Orion were doing extremely well. There had been so many reforms that the citizens were liking their rule. The general hatred that they had towards their queen was slowly dissipating and it was not because her brother had died, it was mostly because she was producing an heir for Orion Kingdom.
"I wish I could meet them," said Tania. She was lying beside Eltanin who had closed his eyes and was resting. He had his arms over her waist and was slowly drawing circles on her belly with his fingers.
"You can meet them once our pups are out. I am sure Lerna understands it." Eltanin was an extremely happy man these days. All his problems had vanished. His mate was his wife and the Hydra Kingdom was sealed forever. No Nyxer could come out of it. With Nyxers contained, all other kingdoms were relieved and focused on how to build trade better. The King of Eridanus had sent another reminder to Eltanin to build the bridge over the Gulf of Enki-A.
Eltanin was planning on creating a team for it to inspect the whole project all over again. He knew that King Eridanus was interested in monetary help. The bridge was going to start right from Eridani River from Orion Kingdom across to Eridanus Kingdom and then go over the gulf.
It would end in the kingdom of Black Dunes. That kingdom was never explored because it was said that it was a home to various species of demons. However, the main thing about Black Dunes was that it was extremely rich in minerals. Some even said that it had a huge mine of gold and diamonds.
"Elty!" Tania's voice brought him back. He got up with a jerk to look at her.
"Are you okay?" he rasped, his gaze snapping to her belly which was now showing her pregnancy fully.
"I am fine!" She rolled her eyes. "But where are you?"
Eltanin crashed on the pillow back and turned to curl his arms over her. "Nothing much, love. I was thinking about the project with King Eridanus. He has asked for a large amount of money from me."
Tania narrowed her eyes. "That is a stupid project, Elty. Don't go for it."
"Why?" he asked, surprised at her conclusion.
"Black Dunes isn't the place to go. Even if you build the project, would you be able to fight off the demons? You don't even know what kind of demons are there. It would be like golden shooting arrows in the blind."
"I agree... but I don't know why King Eridanus is so pushy about it."
"Maybe he needs the money..." she replied lazily.
"What do you mean?"
She shrugged. "I mean I am not saying that he is corrupt and is looking for ways to get money from you, but why would he suggest a project that has literally very less chance of succeeding. And what if the demons take advantage of the bridge and cross over to this side? Right now they are constrained by the Eridani River. Who knows what kind of monsters there are?"
Eltanin took a deep breath. Tania had made a solid point. He was going to investigate it. "We will see," he replied. "And how are my pups doing?"
She giggled. "They are fine. Just three more months!"
"And I will see them!" Eltanin beamed. He was dying to see his pups. The way Tania's belly was swelling he was sure there would be at least two pups.

Lerna was chewing on the chicken wings that the servant had just brought her under Fafnir's strict gaze. She said while eating, "We must go and meet Tania and Eltanin and Lerna and Rigel."
"Yes, we must," he replied. "But for that you should be absolutely fine. Your legs are swollen and your wolf refuses to shift because she doesn't want to harm the babies."
Tabit sighed. She looked at her swollen legs. The healer had said that the legs swell often in pregnancy and that it wasn't a big deal. But what Fafnir said about her wolf was absolutely true. "Okay..." she resigned.
Fafnir gave a broad smile to her. Every day was a challenge with Tabit. He would agree to what she said when she demanded of visiting Draka or Orion, and then somehow try to convince her that it could be delayed.
"I am going to eat well and rest well and then how about we go to visit them in two weeks?" she asked, keeping the plate aside.
"Great idea!" He agreed with her.
"We can ask the faes to create the portal for us."
"Sure!"

In the Hydra Kingdom, ever since Felis had died, there was complete chaos. The Alphas wanted to take over and there was an internal battle going on. Since all the borders were sealed, the limited rations and treasures that Nyxers had were depleting soon. Morava was least bothered about it. And she was fast becoming unpopular.
