Confession Time
ATHENA’S POVLord Dante really hurt me, and I couldn’t even deny that. After I left his chamber, tears pooled in my eyes, and a few of them dropped before I got to the room.However, I wiped clean my cheeks and blinked back the ones in my eye because I didn’t want Belle to see me crying.Ever since the announcement, she had been deeply moody, and I knew that it was because of her feelings for Blake, even though he might never reciprocate it.“What’s wrong, Athena?” Belle asked me.“Nothing,” I lied.I lay down, but my heart was still heavy.Lord Dante was someone I would stay loyal to for the rest of my life, because what he did for me, no one had ever done it, and regardless of what was going on around him right now, I knew the kind of war god that he was.I didn’t know his predecessors, but one thing I was certain was that the Organization was lucky to have him as their war god. Even Hera was the luckiest woman to have someone like Lord Dante dedicate his heart to her.Nesse was equ
One Last Confrontation
HADES’ POVThe time was ticking dangerously close to the time that Iron had declared the combat, and as much as I tried to stop it, my heart kept beating.I decided to leave my room to take a walk, just to try and ease the tension that was building inside of me.“You already have what it takes to win this, Hades. There is no cause for you to panic,” a stern voice in my head told me.I nodded in agreement, but I needed to take the walk.And then I came across Blake’s room, and I couldn’t resist the temptation of going in.One thing that hadn’t changed even after his getting close to Iron was the fact that he still shared rooms with about two other Titans. They would have been three in number if the other one that he was really close to hadn’t been attacked and killed.“Leave us,” I commanded the other two as soon as I got into the room.The Titans obeyed without questions or hesitation.I expected Blake to say something like I shouldn’t be coming into his room to dictate things to the
Broken Trust
IRON’S POVJane returned to the Organization with Diana and Eric later than expected, and I was beginning to get deeply worried. I had almost asked some Titans to go out and look for them when they arrived.The combat was tonight, and as the hours drew nearer, the tension in the entire Organization became palpable. I could also feel it deep into my bones.“Why did you stay out for so long?” I asked.It was getting really back, and Jane should have been back about three hours ago. However, I allowed them to take Jane into her bedroom before returning back to my chamber to answer for themselves. More than anything, I wanted to protect Jane from everything, including my own struggles and worries.“Some homeless and helpless children came to watch Jane play today,” Diana said.“Since she started living in the Organization, she stopped playing for money, but today, she changed her mind, and we didn’t think it wise to stop her, Lord Dante, especially as she did it for the children,” Eric re
Findings
NESSE’S POVAs usual, I intended to work late into the night, but I felt way too lightheaded. I tried to ignore it, but I just couldn’t.Athena wasn’t here to serve me a cup of coffee to make me feel better, and I almost regretted letting her off easily.“I am going to pass out if I force this,” I told myself.As much as I hated that this disease was preventing me from working as I should, I knew that I had to call it a day. For once, I recalled the words of the doctor.If I persisted, I would end up passing out, and with Athena’s absence, I didn’t want things to get out, especially as my mum had started asking questions and seeking ways to bring me down.With that, I gathered my things and left my office.When I got home, I could have a good dinner; I noticed lately that I had been eating too much, and then have another cup of coffee, and then relax in bed and go through the documents I should have worked on.If I was already feeling this way, I could only imagine how I would be fee
Caring Too Much
NESSE’S POVAthena and I worked for the rest of the day, but I noticed that as the day drew to a close, she became increasingly moody.I started noticing it hours ago, which was unlike me because I really didn’t give a damn about anyone, and that was why when I did, I didn’t say anything about it.However, I was barely able to ignore it any longer.“Nesse, I have a request to make,” she told me.Oh well, maybe she was going to talk about it before I asked, and that was even better for me, because the last thing I wanted was for Athena to ever think that I cared about her.“Deep down, Nesse, you know that you have come to care,” a tiny stubborn voice in my head told me, but I shoved it off stubbornly as well.No, I didn’t.Nesse didn’t give a shit about anyone; not even the disease that was growing inside of me increasingly, and certainly not Athena. The only reason why my heart was thinking that I was beginning to care was because Athena was getting closer than anyone else I had ever
Getting Him Back
HADES’ POVThere was no way I was going to allow Iron to call it off now that I was certain who victory belonged to. Besides, I was already sick of seeing Blake and having to endure his presence in the Organization.There was no better time to permanently get rid of him than now.“Are you sure, Hades?” Iron asked me.It was unlike Iron to be developing cold feet, and I knew that he wasn’t considering calling it off because of me. He didn’t want Blake, his most beloved Titan, to die.“I am very sure, Lord Dante,” I told him without fear or hesitation.I could still feel the container of what he gave me inside my cloth, and I couldn’t wait to get to the privacy of my room to apply it on my bladed fingers. As much as I wanted to make Blake suffer for all that he had cost me these past couple of months, killing him swiftly was the only way out.The advantage of it was that the other Titans would reverence me more.They would think that I had an unstopped and unmatched power, and the resp
