He had wanted to kiss her since the first time they met.He took in her scent, a mix of mint and lavender, it made him want her more. Desire filled his eyes, he could almost devour her with it. She lightly bit her lips, something she was fond of doing when she was nervous.He placed his hands softly on the side of her jaw and took her lips.He was gentle. He was soft. He was perfect. Gently, he nudged his tongue between her lips, deepening the kiss. His hands were now on her waist, pulling her closer. He wanted all of her. He pulled away briefly for them to catch their breath. He looked at her, reading her expression for a minute. Taking him by surprise, she located his face and started kissing him. This time he let her take over, hoping a whiff of memory would come to her. She straddled him, continuing the kiss. She wanted him as

The sound of a soft lullaby woke her from her somewhat troubled sleep.She had been having unsettling dreams, she wouldn't admit they were nightmares. Just a certain feeling of uncertainty, like she was being warned about something from the past. Or something that was coming in the future.The nearest future, probably.She still dreaded the just-ended war. It was gruesome. Deciding not to start her day with that thought, she jumped out of bed to get ready for her daily meditation. It was the fuel that kept her day smooth and running. That made her feel light and happy.The only thing that was still keeping her in one piece.She brushed her teeth, made a smoothie, and put her hair in a bun. “Alexa play meditation playlist,” she said, laying her mat down.“Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale.Find balance. Now, breathe.Let it out, the negativity, the bad thoughts, the stress.Release everything.”She exhaled as the medication voice ended.Now it was going to be a good

“Hera, Hera, Hera, Hera, Hera,....” Ares heard her more clearly as he moved closer to her. Panic is written all over his face. Was his worst fear coming true?Was her brain only picking up bits of the war?Why didn't she remember their love before the war?Was it not strong enough?Why was her brain choosing to punish him?“Hey hey, I'm here. What's going on? What did you see?” He asked concerned as he drew her to his chest, trying to calm her down.Tears started streaming down her face as she started sobbing.“Did you know her?” She raised her head as she asked, her eyes sore from sobbing.Afraid of what to answer, he rested her head back on his chest and rocked her, hopefully, to sleep while he contemplated on how to answer her.“Why do I remember the death of someone I didn't know?” She asked him again, this time she didn't look up.He was fighting off his tears too. He was afraid she'd feel it.“Don't worry, we'll make sense of it. You need to rest now.” He assured them while tryi

“You both are being childish right now,” Ivan said, letting his gaze dart from one to another.“She is being mean,” Hermes defended himself. “You were asking obvious questions, and I gave the appropriate answers,” Artemis said, not looking at him.“Enough,” Ivan said, spreading his palms on the table for extra effect.They both kept mute, each glaring at each other, Ivan knew for sure something was wrong with the two, but he was not ready to interfere.“I found Hades, and that’s the perfect lead that we need,” Ivan said to change the subject to more important issues.“Yeah, I’ll ask the guys to track his every move,” hermit said, immediately switching moods.“Yeah right” Artemis snorted They both went back and forth with each other again, Ivan looked between the two and knew he would rather be nowhere in the world but there.

Ivan hesitated for a minute, it could not by chance be that Vera wanted him to kiss her. They had been married for the longest time, and she had avoided him and intimacy at all costs, so why now?Vera looked at him, urging him on with her eyes, as she was a bit of a coward to go in for it first. Her heart raced fast, and she squeezed her hand, fighting the urge to yank him down by his shirt and kiss him to her satisfaction.Ivan let out a low grunt as his resolve crashed as she planted his lips on hers, wrapping one of his arms around her and drawing her into him, his other hand cupping her chin, giving him more access to her mouth.Vera let herself be carried away by the kiss, she let out a low mourn as his tongue brushed against her lower lip seeking permission to tour her mouth.Her hands snaked up his torso until they wrapped around his neck, her fingers caressing his nape.Ivan could swear this was the best kiss of his life, her lips were softer than he had imagined them to be, a
