Ajaxson hummed softly, leaning against the nearest surface. A thoughtful look crossed his face. She held her breath, waiting for him to say yes so that Talia could continue her relationship with Lukas. If her betrothed rejects her, then Zeus will let her decide something for a change.     "Okay"   The moon princess almost wanted to scream at his answer, but he quickly continued. "But on one condition."    A frown took over her features at that. What did he want now? Talia chewed on her lips, hesitant on listening to him. Here she thought that her betrothed would agree, and they could get it over with. Then again, her life had never been easy.     "What is your condi

Talia was numb to the celebration of their announcement, her parents cheering and congratulating them. The moon princess had so many hopes that they would postpone the date and eventually be forced to cancel it. She could not see that happening anytime soon with her parent's blatant display of emotions paired with Ajxasons silence.     Why did he not say anything? She stopped counting the times the question played in her head in the past hour, eyes set stoically on the table.    Some maids rushed to set up the food, smiles on their faces. The array of food ranging from bacon, chicken, black pudding, steaming tea, wine, fruits, cheese, bread and cream were placed on the grand dining table. It was making hers nauseous just staring at them. Her fingers were continuously digging into the skin of her knees as she tried to

If Talia had trouble breathing before, it's near impossible now, vision blurry with unshed tears. She didn't know what to do with her body, blindly clawing at the bunched up sheets to gain some level of grounding. The air in the room felt stuffy, impossibly hot and rapidly spreading all over her body, prickling at her skin until she was glistening with sweat. Her pulse sped up, heart hammering against her chest at the heat of their bodies pressed together.     "Lukas," She tried to press out, but the only sound coming from her mouth was a guttural moan. Her legs were starting to twitch, but the Prince slid his hands up to her hips, holding her still.     Talia trailed her hand over to his face, gripping at the material of his toga, pushes at his chest with urgency. Pulli

"I wish we could stay here," Lukas murmured, his lips pressed to the shell of her ear. "Do this every day for the rest of our lives."     It sounded like it could have become a reality, and Talia wanted to have it—Lukas as her better half. Her heart leapt up into her throat at the mere thought.    "I love you," Talia croaked, eyes clenched shut.    And the moon princess indeed did, so much, more than she's ever loved anybody and seeing it reflected in his eyes as well made her knees wobble.    Lukas leaned down and brushes their lips together, kiss as soft as a feather. "I love you, too."&n

/Lukas POV/   The Sun Prince blearily blinked his eyes, tilting his head towards the window. Harsh, bright light filtered across, hitting his face and body. It dawned on him that he needed to report for his duty along with his friend. How did he let that slip his mind?     Ever since Lukas came back from Olympus, he’s been moody, annoyed at everything and lazy to get out of bed. Talia’s word stung, making him rethink everything. It's been two nights since that incident took place.     Taking a cold shower, he got dressed in his usual patrolling clothes, hair wet and falling over his forehead. For a change, he decided to spend the night in his father's Castle instead of on earth
