"What are you still waiting for, Fraus? We are all getting impatient up there?" A voice asked in the dark.
"Patience, my friend, patience. To pull the greatest deceit and cause the fall of the human race, you need patience,"
The voice scoffed loudly, "I've never known you to be patient. Now you're preaching it. I hope you know what you are doing Farus and I hope you know we won't wait for long,"
"You guys have no choice in the matter, you chose me for this and I am doing this my way whether you like it or not," Fraus let out in annoyance and went off in the dark.
The annoyance in her was giving off a wave that hit even the trees and caused them to shake off some leaves. She hated being rushed, she knew they didn't trust that she could do this. "And they dared choose me," she muttered to herself as she walked off.
"Where are you coming from?" A voice asked her.
Knowing already who the voice belonged to, she pretended to be startled and then turned slowly to Akaya.
"Oh my! You scared me!" She exclaimed, looking into his eyes. On seeing that he was not showing any emotions, she realized that he was still waiting for her to answer his question. "I just went for some fresh air. And what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be with the men?"
"I was... I am, I was patrolling when I heard a noise in the distance. I thought it was some wild animals. I sure was ready to score some kill tonight, you are so lucky I checked if it was human before I attacked. You would have lost your life," Akaya replied to her.
Fraus just nodded and smiled before looking at his hands. Seeing a spear, she realised that he was right, he would have attacked her but there was no way he was capable of killing her, a goddess. If it were someone else, he would have attacked without looking and she would have had to kill him. That would alert the Luna goddess and also put a dent in her plans.
"Well, lucky me. I better go back to join the women's fold right now. I will see you later, right?" she asked him.
Akaya was already lost in thought. He was comparing the body and beauty of Fraus to the maiden acolyte. He just couldn't see himself getting aroused for her but by the mere thought of the maiden acolyte, his man juices would lay in his hands.
He sighed and looked up at Fraus and he saw that she was already looking at him.
"What did you...? Oh, yeah, yes, we'll see later. Why not? You have to come to the festival. Now, go on, you need your rest today. Bye," he replied to her chasing her away from his sight.
Everything was starting to look not good for Akaya. Not only did he admire the fair maiden acolyte, but he also had his thoughts on Fraus. He thought he didn't feel anything for her but somehow, seeing her that night made him want to lay her bare on the ground and lick her all the way up. He was starting to wonder what she would taste like and even ask himself what would she sound like? What would she feel like? Her skin looked so smooth and he ached to touch it. It was then it came to him, he needed a release, and he needed it fast.
Running off into the forest where nobody was patrolling, he carefully undid his tunic and let it fall down his legs, then he carefully held himself, wrapped his large hands around himself and began to pump. His thoughts were filled with that of the maiden, he imagined how soft her flesh would be under all those things she puts on. he already knew her flesh was soft from the slight contact they had yesterday. So, he let his imagination run wild. He thought about her moans and then just like that, the image of Fraus came sipping in. Her mouth wrapped around him, sucking him, the mouth of the maiden acolyte - who he didn't even know her name - sucking, licking, biting, eating.
He kept on like that, pumping faster, his breathing ragged and shaky. He knew that not long now, he was going to come undone, so he kept at it.
His last thought was of Fraus and the maiden acolyte at his feet on their knees, their mouth wide open, ready to take all that he could give.
His release shook him, he grunted out loud and sighed when he was done. His hands were filled with his male juices.
He looked at his hands and sighed in relief. He was able to get through the day, he was able to hold it in.
If only he knew someone was watching as he came.
Fraus went back to join the other women in their camp with a smile on her face and her thighs rubbing against each other in her juices. She thought about what she had just witnessed and wondered if she could at least have him before all turned to dust.
She began to hatch another plan. She was going to have him one way or the other.
The night went like a blur but not for Fraus, and neither for Akaya.

The prophecy
"In the days to come, a child would be born to the humans. she would be like the moon, a child of the moon, one with the moon and the moon would be of her. She would, must be pure, no blemish to her must be made and with her and through her, salvation would come to mankind and to those who worship the moon. but if by any chance, a blemish is made to her, disaster, reproach, curses and even death will be upon her and those who stain her. their generations and generations to come shall feel the wrath of the moon. Pay heed!"
The chief priestess read the prophecy again before laying down the scroll and sighing hard. She had not yet noticed that she was among them and she wonders if it would be too late when she does notice her presence among them. either way, she anticipated her arrival, she who has been blessed by the moon.
