Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-SIXMaddie missed again and slashed the curtain. Despite the confusion, Theo was still quick in dodging Maddie’s attempt to kill him. He stood on the other side of the room, naked and bewildered about what was happening. “Put the dagger down, Maddie. Let us talk this through.” Theo said calmly but Maddie is nowhere near calm. He can feel her anger and what’s worse is that he couldn’t understand why. They were happy, or so he thought. “There’s no need to talk, Theo. What needs to be done here is to end you.” Her voice is filled with so much hatred that Theo forgot she was the woman he loves. It feels like another woman is standing in front of him. “What is wrong, Maddie? Did I do something to upset you?” Theo is still calm as he is trying to understand the situation, his wife. At that moment, Maddie’s expression changed. Her eyes widened as she stared at the dagger she was holding. Her eyes brimmed with tears before she looked at Theo. “What is happening, Theo?” Her tears started to f

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVEMaddie kept looking at herself in the mirror. She feels nauseous just by merely thinking about what's going to happen in a few while. She took a deep breath while shaking her hands as they kept on shaking. Maddie's nervous, super nervous that she thinks she wilo faint any moment now. She and Theo will share their first night together and it is her first time. She's afraid of what she's going to do and feel. Maddie's not innocent about it so all the knowledge she knows is what's making her worry. A knock disturbed her from overthinking and knowing well that it's Theo, made her heart skip a beat. "I'm coming!" She washed her hands before drawing in a deep breath. "Is everything alright, Maddie?" She sensed Theo's worry so Maddie quickly went out of the bathroom which slightly startled Theo. Maddie blushed upon seeing Theo topless so she averted her eyes but she couldn't help but to glance at his perfectly sculpted upper body. The sight made her feel hotter. "Just tell me if you ar

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-FOURMaddie took a deep breath but it was no use. She’s still having a hard time controlling her breathing as she’s too nervous. Eliza helps her calm down by giving her an assuring smile. Maddie smiled back at her but it was crooked.“You are beautiful, my lady.” Eliza complimented sincerely and it has been her nth time of saying that statement.“It’s not that I am worried about, Eliza.” Maddie said before pouting her lips.“Is it about the ritual?” Eliza is now worried too. Maddie sighed before nodding then she looked ahead.“Theo said that it will not affect our marriage but I am still worried. What if we get a divorce after a few days?&rdquo

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE“Eliza, where are we going?” Eliza just smiled at her before she continued dragging her to the front porch.It’s already late at night and she should be resting because it is her wedding day tomorrow. Maddie thought that it will take a while before they will get married, especially after their misunderstanding. However, the next day, Eliza gave her the news that their nuptial will be the following day. It was sudden but Maddie didn’t care. All she wants now is to marry Theo. She wants him to be her husband already.Maddie stopped when she saw what was on the front porch. Theo was there, looking at her with a small smile on his lips, and another man. From his intimidating look, MAddie assumed that he is a god as well.“What is t

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-TWOEliza hurriedly went to Theo who’s having his morning meeting with the guards. Despite her growing nervousness and fear, the servant still took all her courage with her when she entered the room. Theo quickly stabbed her with his glare so Eliza quickly bowed her head.“I apologize, my lord.” She breathlessly said with her head still down. Two guards instantly went on both her sides, waiting for an order to drag her away and behead her.“State your purpose before I get your head to feed the birds.” Theo said seriously while staring at Maddie’s personal servant.“Miss Maddie did not cheat on you and I can vouch for that. You can have my life, as well as my family’s if you proved me wrong.” Eliza said quick

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-ONEMaddie slowly spun as Flora checked her dress. Eliza gave her two thumbs up which made Maddie smile. Flora clasped her hands when Maddie faced her.“As expected, you suit the dress.” Flora said while gently dusting off the skirt of the dress.Maddie’s face burned and all she managed to give as a response was a shy smile. Eliza helped her remove the simple cream floral dress that Flora designed herself. She immediately went to her, bringing the dress that will be her wedding gown, as soon as she heard the news that Maddie and Theo are getting married in two days time. It was not only her that is exuberant for the upcoming union but as well as the other gods and goddesses. They even started delivering their gifts to Maddie in advance.Maddie

Chapter: T H I R T Y - T W O“Eleena.” Eleena slowly opened her eyes. She sighed as soon as she saw the sun had risen. It was not long enough after she started meditating and now, someone disturbed her. Based on the voice, it was not Apollo which relieved her because after the incident yesterday with Athena, she doesn't want to see him. "What is it, Artemis?" Eleena closed her eyes and tried to relax again. "I'm impressed. You knew it was me without seeing me." Artemis stood beside her. "I know your voice." Eleena responded sarcastically. "It doesn't mean that you were able to injure Athena's pride that you get to talk to me like that." Eleena scoffed then looked at her. Artemis has her hands on her waist like a nagging mother. Eleena shook her head in disbelief. "Will I be visited by one god every day?" Her brow shot up. "What's with the attitude?" Artemis sat next to her. Eleena averted her eyes and tried to calm down. However, her pounding heart doesn't let her. She's been thinking about what Athena s

Chapter: T H I R T Y - O N EEleena woke up earlier to exercise. It was still dark outside but somehow her vision was clear. It's a sign that the destroyer inside her is getting stronger. This is the reason why Eleena wants to be in control. She wants to beat the destroyer before he could even execute his plans. Eleena started to jog at the shore. She jogged until the sun was up but she didn't feel an ounce of weariness at all. No matter how she hated being weak and clumsy, she misses her old self because now, she doesn't even fully know herself anymore. "Where is Apollo?" Eleena gasped when a woman blocked her way. Apollo's name brought sparks in her heart but she quickly erased the feeling. For a moment, she was confused before she pushed the woman but she casually dodged her. The unfamiliar woman poses a threat to her and despite the destroyer not being in charge, Eleena wants to protect herself. After everything she went through, she's different now. "Who are you?" Eleena asked while remaining alert. The

Chapter: T H I R T YEleena woke up because of the rays of the sun burning through her skin. She slowly lifted her arm then covered the light using her palm. She was confused for a moment before she realized that she had fallen asleep. Eleena sat up then looked around. There’s nothing but beautiful nature.“You’re awake.”She flinched when she heard someone speak. Eleena turned around and saw Apollo walking towards her. She quickly stood out of embarrassment. On the other hand, Apollo stifled a laugh when he saw Eleena’s messy hair as if it was nested by birds. There are even grains of sand that are stuck on it.Apollo slowly approached Eleena and she was taken aback but she remained on her spot. Her eyes went wide when Apollo gently combed her hai

Chapter: T W E N T Y - N I N EApollo quickly panicked when he couldn’t feel Eleena’s presence inside the house. He quickly checked on her in her room but it was empty. He then went outside but there was no sign of Eleena.“Eleena!” Apollo ran to the shore to see if the boat was still there.He stopped when he saw Eleena. All the fear and anxiety inside him disappeared in an instant while staring at her. Eleena’s sitting on the sand while facing the sea. Apollo cleared his throat and tried to not mind the warming of his face. He got scared so fast that Eleena might have left and even until now, his heart’s beating quickly.“Eleena. What are you doing here?” Apollo asked calmly before peeking at her. His brows knot when he saw Eleena’s

Chapter: T W E N T Y - E I G H TApollo suddenly opened his eyes when he felt another presence inside his home. He quickly went out of his room, half-asleep, as he was triggered by the unfamiliar presence. Apollo stopped as soon as he saw Ares sitting at the table while Eleena was serving him food. A scowl quickly appeared on his face upon seeing his brother.Eleena and Ares turned towards him but Eleena quickly looked away. Even though three days have already passed since she lost control of herself, she is still embarrassed. She wanted to help but she couldn’t do anything aside from letting the destroyer come out. She feels useless, especially after seeing how Apollo takes care of her no matter how many times she messes up.“What are you doing here, Ares?” Apollo asked seriously before sitting across from his brother.

Chapter: T W E N T Y - S E V E NEleena woke up with the other side of the bed cold. She quickly sat upon realizing what happened last night. She couldn’t help but to feel her face burning as the memory of her and Apollo’s bodies touching dawn upon her.“Did it even happen? Maybe I was just dreaming.” Eleena muttered as she looked around, looking for any sign that they cuddled.She froze when she saw the crease on the bed sheet on the other side of the bed. Eleena bit her lip to stop herself from screaming. It was a surreal moment that she never knew would even happen. Her heart suddenly thumped as her smile kept on wanting to come out.“He hugged me.” She whispered breathlessly. “And I want more.”
