Athena Ares Novels & Stories

Darius thundered looking at the piles of ashes. "Let's give him back what he gave us" Lucifer and Lucian stood on either side of Darius. Thea, Amber, and Ophelia joined them and stood beside them looking at the ashes grimly. Max is flying above them surveying the scene in front of them. Once green land is now looking like ashes and death. Thea must have thought the same because she raised her palm and commands the earth to take the ashes in. Soon earth opened and pulled the ashes inside before closing again.

The sun begins to lower through the sky, leaving orange glints reflecting off all the metals in the satellite dishes and vents that lead up here. I walk briskly closer until I'm completely behind him, watching his ink-covered back muscles tense with every blow. -Azael- I say this time, trying to normalize my breathing. Amon hits the bag looser before turning around. His torso is naked and a few beads of sweat fall down his black-colored body. His mouth is ajar to breathe easier and his chest goes up and down frantically. -What are you doing here? -question. His voice makes me shiver.

Legend has it that Athena emerged from Lake Gayank—born of its mystical waters—and even as a child, her power was unmatched. Her story intertwined with that of Prince Lucius, a banished royal from Decresh. King Baeon had deemed him weak and unworthy, unable to generate energy like the other royals. Cast out and disgraced, Lucius wandered until he met Athena. She took him under her wing, becoming both his master and his source of power. Athena allowed him to draw energy directly from her, which ultimately linked him to the lake itself. This bond transformed him into a force no one could stand against.

He said, as he growled at her. “Enough of all of this!” Athena yelled from behind, as she stepped forward and stood directly in front of her father, staring him down without budging. It was obvious from the look in her eyes that she was not scared of him even in the slightest and this brought a certain level of pride to Hermes’s mind because she showed zero fear to him. This was the daughter that he knew not what he had come to know over the past few months. “I am not going to hurt either one of you.” Hermes said, “If I wanted to do that then I would have done it already. I am just here to talk.”

“You're going somewhere?” “I’ve to run an errand outside the pack.” “Do you have to?” The words rang out almost like a plea. “I do.” Zeus was my protection among these predatory people. Without him, they would just… Once again, his fingers tightened around my skin as though he read my thoughts, but this time as a warning. “Iris will accompany you in the meantime.” He gestured to the doorway, steering my attention there. A girl with black hair and similar eyes stood there in a khaki jumpsuit, her expression blank, but what made me lean into Zeus was her warrior-like-built.

Although I had never told the old priestess the details of my entanglement with the God of War, Pythia, who had lived for so long, had already guessed the general story from my broken state. The old priestess turned her head and, with eyes that had seen through the life and death of the mortal world yet remained resilient, stared directly into Aresios's soul. Aresios saw his own reflection clearly in her gaze: a face wracked with pain and regret, so pathetic that he could not utter a single word in his own defense. His throat worked, as if filled with coarse sand. With all the strength of a war god, he could only force out a single, broken word.

I said, a sad smile forming on my face because, for some reason, Riley reminded me of Athena. "Why can't she? Is she not around or something?" Xavier asked, and I didn't know how to tell this little kid that Athena was in a coma without losing my composure. "Her name is Athena. She got hurt, but she's in the hospital now and getting better. We're heading to the hospital to see her, so you can meet her then. She can't introduce herself because she is sleeping right now, but when she wakes up, you can get to meet her. She's really smart, like your sister," Austin explained. I could sense the pain in his voice, but he covered it up with a smile.

I am Azura. The only goddess of two elements. Fire and water. Ooops...... Right introduction, wrong timing. **************** "This is not gonna be a great day". This was all I could say to myself. Somehow deep down, I could just feel that something huge was gonna happen today. It was the same gut feeling I woke up with the day I lost my parents to a ghastly car accident. I was a hundred and one percent sure, that crazy things are gonna happen today.

I don’t want to come over as a jealous Beta. I saw her hurt when she came out of the car. I couldn’t make eye contact with Ares watching every move. I know she knows he’s possessive. But trust me, if you look up possessive in the dictionary, it would say Ares. But then again, he is the reincarnation of the god of war, or is the god of war. Aach my head.
