Ares Athena Novels & Stories

It was so bad that we started avoiding our own home at a point. If I believed in diviners, I would have sent her to one. Ameera would tear the pillows, slash the pictures with a knife and generally destroy anything that came her way. This has happened since the day Arya died. Two months after Arya's death, it became obvious that Ameera wasn't going to stop anytime soon. We started locking her in the attic every Tuesday before she woke up. We would put her breakfast, lunch and even dinner in there and only bring her out on Wednesday morning. Sometimes it felt like there was a spell cast on her whenever she woke up on a Tuesday morning.

People are watching, gathered in half a circle with two people in the middle i can't see. Mona pushes her way through looking eager and i just keep trailing behind her till we reach an opening and i have a perfect view of the scene before me. Jenna Marbles is pressed up against the wall, her huge glasses threatening to fall of her nose, her expression sore as the familiar red haired diva corners her. "you don't want to test me " Sarah Jones says to the raven haired nerd she has locked in her paws in what's supposed to be a threatening tone.

The older sister scowled at the little one, who rolled her eyes and giggled in response. “Alette and Adelina.” Atlas motioned to the two sisters. The six-year-old, Adelina, flashed a dimpled smile at me while Alette gave me a wary glance. “This is my true-mate, Raelynn.” “Don’t mind Alette, she worry’s too much.” Adelina snorted, smiling at Atlas and I, much more intelligent than I would’ve pegged a six-year-old. “She’s Atlas’s true-mate Alette, you know she wouldn’t hurt us.”

Hector looked older than he was with his sharp jaw and sculpted body, so sometimes when he spoke it reminded me how much younger he really was. “I’m worried what Axel’s dad will think of me ok. See it’s stupid now can we please just drop it” Athena stopped her fiddling and looked out of the window. How could she possibly be worried about what my father thought of her? She wasn’t only stunning she was smart, strong, loyal and kind. She was the whole package; you couldn’t ask for a better mate and woman to become your Luna.

We landed with my back facing the ground full of marbles, shattered bottles, and garbage while she landed in a kneeling position with her blazing eyes still staring at me and her hand on my neck. “Never forget that I AM MIKHA’EL,” She said in a thundering voice that made the whole place shake, and she stood up and spread her wings and flew away in her phoenix form. Like nothing happened. Yes, I am nothing compared to her. HE IS MICHAEL who disguises himself as a teenage girl. WTF?

I nodded at them acknowledging that I told her about Claire. "She is that B-I-T-C-H." Aiden spelled. Athena flicked his forehead. "I didn't say that. I spelled, Cupcake." Aiden whined rubbing his forehead. "Anyway, it is the same," Athena said making Lucas snort. "Let's get into work!" Lucas clapped. Most of the male models dressed as the photoshoot was going on. Athena didn't even look at any one of them as she was solely focused on the work. But the guys were eyeing her as she belongs to them. I wanted to shout and turn their head to another side. I restrained myself from doing it, it's just a job. Keep calm.

Then look at me again. Aristotle's jaw clenched, "Three." I don’t speak as we walk around the store. This is the last thing we need buy. I can see the veins in his arms while holding the plastic bags. He didn't seem it matter to him but I was already squirming with excitement. An old woman and seems to know a lot about me, us. "Don't try again, Aristotle. Take care of your last name," the old woman added as she whispered. There is a chisel in her voice as the purchases are placed in a plastic.

Lydia gave me a straight face, "yes." "Yes what?" "Go to him, Aphrodite. What is the purpose of holding off? Master has given you so much already, are you really going to make Master Abigor go through so much more trouble to be with you?" I frowned, "I would like to believe that I am worth a bit of effort, Lydia. I am no mere woman, I am Aphrodite. The richest, most beautiful and talented in the lands. I deserve to be courted on a much higher scale than any other female and perhaps that is vain but I know my worth and so does Master Abigor."

I don’t want to lose my job. “Ugh, I felt the same way, Pau. Earlier, we hesitated to greet him. We did greet him, but he just walked past us like we didn’t exist,” Jessa chimed in. She’s also part of the IT team but focuses more on software. “Right? So Athena, when you see him, just avoid him right away because his aura alone will make you nervous,” Pau warned. I just nodded in response and excused myself to go to the pantry. I needed some coffee to shake off my drowsiness.

However, he has face timed every night to see and I quote ‘his girls’. A squeal brings me out of my thoughts as I look over my laptop to see what Athena is doing. She is in her bouncy chair, kicking her little legs at the toys that dangle in front of her. Her beautiful blue eyes look at me. Those eyes feel like they are staring into my very soul. Athena really suits her name sake. The Goddess of wisdom and warfare. She has been here before in another life. Her eyes hold so much wisdom and I know she will make an amazing and just Luna when she is older.
