Andi didn’t like that he laughed at her. She took the bag by her feet and swung it at him. That only made him laugh a deeper and richer laugh. “You’re impossible.” She stormed off ignoring his pleas and the whimpers of Cere.Madame Mirage gave him a once over and left her parting words. “You’ll do well to treat her right. You never know what happens when you anger a goddess of fate.”Jace had a wrinkle gather on his forehead with the way his eyebrows furrowed. “Goddess of fate? Yeah sure, madame I think you may need to take a rest. That beautiful woman is not some ugly old hag.”Madame mirage chuckled and it reached his ears. He hurried to catch up to her again. He wanted to know what that woman was talking about but when he seen Andi all he could think was she couldn’t possibly be some eons old hag that decided his life.Andi was just ahead holding the bag close to her chest. She had a small smi

Jace wanted to hold onto something anything as they took off. Instead, he just closed his eyes. Minos flapped his glorious wings until they were just above the city. With his coat blending into the night sky, they were free to go wherever they pleased.Andi assumed he had closed his eyes and she spoke to him directly in his ear. “You can open your eyes now.”Jace listened to her and looked around. They were far above the city that even if someone was to see them, they would assume it was nothing. He looked down to see how high they were. His eyes widen and he felt nervous. Andi chuckled at him. “I thought you were this big man on campus but I see you are more mortal than anything abnormal.”He spoke louder to be heard of the flapping of wings. “Well, you would be scared too if you just flew straight into the air and on a Pegasus no less.” He was truly dumbstruck. “You said that they live hidden within the world then how

Just as the two of them exited the grove, Cere came bounding up to them. His tongue hanging from his mouth. He pounced on her. Andi looked around to see if the old woman he lived with was nearby. Jace tried to help get Cere off her but the dog turned to him and growled. Jace noticed little flames in his eyes as he did so. Stepping back, he put his hands in his pockets. A simple question came to mind, could this be a hellhound? Andi was pinned on the ground and Cere went back to covering her in kisses. She started to laugh and wiggle around to get from underneath the beast. “Where’s your master? You should be Madame Mirage. Go home.” “Aren’t you, his master?” Andi leaned her head over to see the serious expression from him. Her eyebrows furrowed together. “What do you mean? This dog belongs to Madame Mirage.” He stepped closer to her, wrapping his arms around the dogs middle he hoisted it off her. Just as he did that a second and third head started to

Jace finally pulled himself together. Even though they were gods right at the moment they were still people. Just very old people. Ancient in fact. The thought that they at some point seen him in the nude made him begin to panic again. His breathing be labored and erratic. Andi could feel something changing in the atmosphere. She opened her eyes to see Jace sitting there with his hands on the wheel breathing heavily. Snapping to attention she became worried about him. “Are you alright?” He didn’t answer her. His eyes were staring straight into the darkness. It was worrying her. she tried to get him to talk to her again. “Seriously Jace are you alright?” He answered her, although his voice was barely above a whisper. “Yes… No!” Hearing his voice made her calm down enough to assess the situation. “Do you want to talk about it?” “it’s just hitting me that I’m bringing the fates together. Literally the FATES! You can imagine that I’m in a state of panic.”

“Different how? Atropos what have you done?” It was Cleo that spoke up. She couldn’t believe the one deemed “inflexible” to be swayed by a man. “Have you learned nothing from the countless women that sold their souls for a stupid man? You’re really saying that he’s different?” Lachesis eyes widen at the way she spoke to their sister. She started to speak up when Atropos squared her shoulders. It was a sign; it was the beginning of a fight. Lachesis didn’t want to be there anymore. Just as she was starting to move, Atropos held her hand up. “Are you really questioning me Clotho?” “I-I’m not. It’s just that you’re acting like an idiot. How can we trust him?” Atropos crossed her arms over her chest. Tilting her head, you could see the annoyance festering in her eyes. “Are you done? Because if you want to continue to ATTEMPT to treat me as if I am an idiot then the conversation can be over and I will not confide in either of you.” The two sisters looked a
