The legend of Ajax and Rhea was not one of those with happy endings, it was tragic, it was painful, and vile. ''Life is like pouring water. You can't grab it. But when you leave it, it dries away." "Wh... who are you?" The girl asked, scared at the shadow of a tall and broad man that resembled her friend. She could feel and hear the movement. She was blind, yes, but that never stopped her from being a really good fighter. Her sword "Bu Wang" was always by her side, from the day she was born. She was all alone since birth. She only had the sword as her real companion in life. "Did you forget me already? You shouldn't have love." The male's voice sounded flirty but a hint of threat painted the tone of his voice. "Ajax?" The familiar voice reached her ears. She did not trust the man near her, she knew he wasn't her friend. She realized he had lured her into his trap from the beginning. "Why?" She asked him, turning her back to face him. She had encountered so many lies, so much hate,
"Be careful, Aurora!" Amelia yelled after Aurora went out of the car. Aurora closed the door with a thud, making all eyes turn to her, focusing on the blue-eyed beauty. In the early morning, she looked like she had come out of heaven, ready to crush the earth. But in Ares's mind, he knew this girl was buried deep into the nine circles of hell, and now she is ready to bring that exact hell among them, mortals. She glanced one more time inside the car, squinting her eyes in distrust at Valentino, which the latter raised an eyebrow, challenging to go on, but it wasn't the time to be fighting an idiot, Aurora thought. She stretched her hands above her head, relaxing for the fight that was about to happen, her bones cracked and her mouth turned into an evil smirk. She then bounced her hands to her sides, casually walking towards the mountain. The men in the car on top of the mountain drove slowly toward her and stopped the car at the edge of the mountain.After a while of waiting, two of t
Humans. Creatures filled with greed. Creatures filled with hate. Creatures that are minds thrive in filth. Creatures whose ferocity is greater than any God. Those who feel are deemed unworthy. But those who own it are deemed as strong. The filth and hate, the cruelty and greed are such emotions. Such that no greater power can run past them. No demon, no spirit, no angels, no God can tame the human heart. They were never born to lead, they were born for the world's destruction. They were born to fill it with love, to make the world bloom. But oh, what an irony this is. They are the ones pushing life away, but they are the ones that are saying life.Humans... Humans were made for destruction. The High Dragon King's voice sounded rough as he continued walking down the rows of his castle's prison. The High King and his reign didn't kill creatures. The humans, as well as other species in the cells of the prisons, were there, were now destined for a punishment greater than their fear. Those
What am I? Who am I? Why am I here? Who brought me to this place? Questions, so many questions. I don't want them in my mind anymore, I don't want anything in my mind anymore. Why should I be the one suffering? Why should anyone have to suffer in the first place? What did I ever do wrong? I was a normal human at first, who chose to break and ruin me? What god or deity wanted to play with a small human for his pleasure? Who could be more fucked than I am?This place I am right now, hell, it is pure hell. A dirty old warehouse with nothing but a fireplace, I guess we should thank the kind men, and a couch in front of it as well as a bedroom and a small bathroom. What luxury, I would say if I was still 17, but this is no luxury, this is a chamber room that we that live in here will be going straight to the butcher.It has been a month and I have changed for the worst. I was a fucked up person, yes, but in this place, I become more of an animal than I already was. My job was being an assa
"Ares! Ares, wake up Ares!" the woman screamed in pain, her forehead wrinkled as sweat painted her beautiful pale skin. A tear ran down her cheeks as she fought a contraction, grasping the sheets behind her, she let out another heart-piercing scream as she tried to wake up her husband. "Ares! I think the baby is coming! ARES!" she cried out, her back arched as she palmed softly the lower of her belly. The man seemed to move after all the yelling and kicking his wife was doing.They have been together for twelve years, their first encounter was abrupt and fearful for the woman, as the man was ruthless and heartless. His aura is cold in her warm heart, and his eyes are dark as quicksand trying to pull her in for the kill. She was just seventeen years old back then and meeting such an intimidating man made her feel scared, but he wasn't enough to take her fire away, her fire was the one that consumed the man, he became warm with time, and he started to love the woman more than anything.
As the doctors came into the room, the man's mind seemed to focus on her. After all that had happened, he loved his wife more than anything, despite his knowledge of her not being his. His brain seemed to function normally now and he took a step towards his wife, holding her hand."Amelia, love, don't worry, it will be okay." the woman nodded, after all, she is a doctor, and she knows better, but what the man didn't know was that she was able to give birth to this child, but unable to live past a year. "I- I know, Valentino. I know, I just want you to promise me one more time, okay? Okay, Valentino, promise me please?" the woman looked deep into his dark eyes, trying to find her salvation. She hated herself for taking him away, even if they never met the woman that was supposed to be with him, she hated herself for being selfish.At first, when they had Matthew, they weren't married, she tried to run away, but he went after her three years later and found her with his child. He was an
"We're almost ready to leave the hospital, Ares. Why do you want me to do a checkup again? I told you I am fine!" The woman glared at her husband, annoyed. She did not want to take any tests because of her condition. She did not want him to find out the secret she was hiding from him for the past few years now.”Love, you must do so, after all, you just gave birth one week ago. Listen to me okay?" The man tried to calm down the woman as he hugged her tightly. He felt a strange pang in his heart after the conversation he had with his wife in the car. He thought something might be wrong, so it was better to take care of it sooner rather than later.Standing above her with the baby in his arms he said once more, "Listen to me, okay?" Ares said and looked deeply into his wife's eyes. He was used to people obeying his orders, but he could not treat his wife like a soldier, so he tried to be as gentle and firm as he could. He was a great man for his people and even if his name was feared, he
"Mommy! Can you tell us the story of you and your father again? We have a new sister now, she must hear it too!" The young girl Caroline asked giggling. "Of course, my sweet Caroline, you too Ariadne, come here!" Both of the girls rushed to the bed and sat next to their mother's side. "Matthew, come here too, don't you want to hear about your mother and father's story?" The woman mocked, giggling. She knew that her oldest son had a sore spot for romance, especially when it came to his mother. His father was the enemy at that point, and he wanted to protect his mother. However much father and son loved each other, they always competed for Amelia's love. It has always been a funny and cute game between them too and everyone makes fun of the both of them. "Mother, I say you be careful with that man, also I don't have time to listen to this crap." He said, rolling his eyes in annoyance. He stood up from his leaning position and left the ward unhurriedly.The girls in the room laughed out
