Ch.3 Pt.1: Temptation Without Shame
Disclaimer: is a work of fiction. This is a fictional story. Any resemblance to person(s) living or dead is purely coincidental.
Temptations without Shame
A/n: Plots within the court as love affairs and secrets that are best kept lie below the surface ready to explode. The Silver Wheel calls off battle for the sake of one but the enemy sees only a chance to plunder. Queen and consort fall as memories of younger days are seen.
Reports were coming in from scouts all over Éireann Leth`Evana of attacks of ekimmu warriors that were slaughtering villages and taking the fae women as slaves. Ailduin was furious but he knew in his heart of hearts that this was. He had been within her mind and it was either her half-brother; Fionn Hammel, he controlled thunder and lightning or Gwydion who was her male identical twin. He controlled ice and snow to such a degree; it could be harnessed as personal weapons of great strength.
Ailduin hated to leave Leth`Evana at such times but he was aching for her. They had said every day and it had been more than two months. He had done what his clan had asked and had said his mind had gone insane from his capture. He felt betrayed and hatred and he had news for the temptress; no one played the leader of Clan Ludok for a fool.
He ordered his warriors to especially be on the lookout for certain warriors and to kill without mercy or care. Ailduin contemplated every moment and finding her and snarling what a lying, conniving whore she was.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~
Arianrhod was not doing well at all. Not that anyone could tell. She viciously put down a small rebellion of infants in the north of Gaul and Fionn was gone often. She had a good idea she knew what he was up to and she was going to catch him in the act of breaking his oath to her. Nemain and Macha came forward and bowed low to her and she nodded for her beautiful daughters to rise.
“Mother! You know of us all you can tell us anything.” Macha cried softly.
Macha was one Arawn’s daughters and she was a deadly woman indeed. She was feared and worshiped. She had a few names in the isles and Moragan was her other; Nemain was always Nemain. Arianrhod almost broke down from her sins but she kept tight control.
“There is a fae man; I believe him in danger because I have played with him. Fionn thinks I love this creature but he gives me immense pleasure as I drink deeply.” Arianrhod said as if bored.
Macha knew better but Nemain took her mother’s words at face value. Nemain could always reach her uncle and Macha was just a mighty warrior.
“I will find a back door through the veils further south my great mother. Nemain will keep Fionn busy. She must tell him that Gavin Tremin has made his moves upon her.” Macha said slyly.
Nemain blushed prettily and Arianrhod leaned forward at that bit of news. Gavin was not openly hostile towards his queen but his temperament cooled immediately when she was speaking to Fionn. She could see the look of true adoration on the young ekimmu’s face and he was in love with her half-brother/lead warrior then she had another comeuppance for him; especially if he also had touched Nemain. Gwydion came into the throne room and Macha bowed before the Bratling Prince and Nemain bowed and went to kiss the cheek of the man who had raised her as his child.
“That will be all Macha and please do as you have suggested.” Arianrhod said softly.
Macha nodded and her eyes turned silver. She walked away in a black body hugging dress of shimmering silk that left her back exposed and her tattoos visible.
“Nemain, I want you to explain to me what Macha meant when she said Tremin had made moves upon you.” Her mother spoke quite loudly and in front of Gwydion.
Gwydion’s pale blue eyes widened a little at the mention of the lower House of Tremin but for one of them to think they were worthy to touch one of the House of Hammel was simply ridiculous.
“I find him pleasing to gaze upon Mother and Father! Please! I am a warrior and he is one as well. I am a grown woman and need not account for my lovers must I?” Nemain asked embarrassed.
“When a lover is beneath your station and your rank; I very much have need you to account for them!” Gwydion actually snarled.
“Father you sound like a snob!” His child said in a soft tone of defiance.
Arianrhod smirked to herself and Nemain truly was Fionn’s daughter. She may not have his outright way of showing his fury, but her level of stubbornness matched his. Gwydion was ranting and raving over his beloved child fucking some worthless nobody and Arianrhod stood up.
“Where are you going?” Her twin and consort demanded.
“To deal with this matter in my way.” His wife admitted.
Gwydion barely smiled and Nemain looked horrified. Gwydion stood and restrained his child and Arianrhod phased out to the training grounds of the ekimmu elite warriors.
