Ariellas pov I felt like a zombie as I walked through the court yard. Nothing felt right. The wind was too hot and the ground was too soft. My legs felt like they were moving without my help and without a destination. I just felt lost. "Ariella I've been looking all over for you." Blake rushed out as I walked through the grass that didn't look like it was the right green. It was too dark. Alittle too long and I hated it. I had to tear my eyes away from it because I was on the verge of tears again. "Ariella. You haven't spoken for almost a week." Blake groaned. I know I haven't. His father lied to me so why would I speak. He said he would be back but its been a week. A whole week I've had to cry myself to sleep at night. I missed him and it was unfair that he could just leave me for so long without at least popping in. "Ariella. You have to talk." Blake snapped like he always did and I stayed silent like I always did. Even if I wanted to talk I still didn't have it i
Alexander the God of absolute dark powers pov "Sir everything is locked down in the north corridor." My subordinate said passing on a message from Aries who was most likely to into his role right now to even bother talking or updating me. I already assumed that everything was locked down but it was still required for updates. "Okay." I said as I looked at the Goddess who was giving me a hard time. Two weeks we had been in the actual magical courts universe. Still I was no where near ruling it than I was when we first got here. All this time I had assumed that it was just a realm when in reality it was a whole universe with hundreds of realms. I could only assume that every realm I controlled had a universe that it was trying to distract me from. Unfortunately for my ex wife I was no longer distracted. "Your efforts will be in vain. You will never gain control of this universe. You might as well just kill me." The Goddess said her high pitch voice sounding more like
Ariellas pov "Ariella get up now. You've missed over three weeks of class." Alax demanded as he pulled the covers off of me. I guess he was done being friendly and trying to coax me into doing anything else besides taking a shower. If I wasn't worried about being presentable when King Alexander got here I wouldn't even bother getting up to do that. I refused to move or do anything ever again until he came back. He didn't even let me know he would be gone this long. "Ariella let's go." Alax ordered as he grabbed my waist and picked me up. Too bad for him I was no longer functional. I was completely broken. I tried to pick up my pieces but once I woke up to Blake gone it was like everything shattered. I couldn't even find it in me to stand unless I needed to make my way to shower. "If I have to carry you to every class I will." Alax said like it was a threat that would make me move. If he felt the need to be a ventriloquist than so be it because unless he moved me
Alexander The God of absolute dark powers pov "Can we just go home and come back." Blake groaned as he leaned back in his chair. "No." I snapped out sternly. He had been asking to go home every day and I refused to go home until I controlled every realm in this universe. "If we go home now they will be able to contact Klaus. We have all access points blocked leading in and out of each realm." Zavier explained as he wrote up all the new laws for Lexus to enforce. "We're close. Just relax." My father said as he also wrote up policy's that would be put into play soon enough. We finally took over the council after 2 months. Now it was about getting everyone to be compliant. "Mom's losing her mind." He said not catching himself again. He had been calling Ariella mom since he got here and I wasn't going to correct him. She was his mom's soul and if he needed this I wouldn't be the one to rain on his parade. "She will be fine. And if she's not I'll make it up
Ariellas pov Two months that's how long King Alexander had been gone for. I finally came to terms with it but still day after day I woke up and my heart broke alittle more. He was busy and I had to accept that but it still didn't make things easy. "So we are still playing the quiet game?" Alax asked as he slurped the soup he decided to eat. Every day he asked the same thing. Different words but all the same. Yesterday he asked was my voice box still broken and the day before he asked if I found my voice yet. My reply was the same to. A simple shrug. I mean I wasn't stuck in my room, I guess he was happy with that because he stopped trying to push me to talk. "You know when he comes back there's a chance you might not even remember how to talk." His serious face didn't stop the small smile that played on my face. I mean as long as he was here that's all that mattered. "Okay well I guess that's close enough to a laugh." He chuckled. He was so carefree and I can ho
Ariellas pov (Trigger warnings. please don't read if things like self harm or extreme depression offend you. This chapter can be optional. Do not read and go to the next chapter if you can't stomach it. Again the next chapter can go with the chapter before this chapter.) "Ariella it's been 2 months." Blake sighed as he sat on my bed. It had been more than 2 month. Four months to be exact. King Alexander was gone and than Alax. Gone were the jokes and in it's place was constant begging and nagging. "Go away. Wasn't it enough to break my vow of silence." I whispered like I did ever day. It was the same every day. He would come in and ruin my peace and sanity. Well more like peace since I think I had officially lost my mind. I hadn't even gotten up to take a shower in I don't know how long. "Let me atleast help you change and clean up." He pleaded like he did every day and I stayed silent like usual. Within seconds I was clean and in fresh pajamas. "Can I keep
Ariellas pov "Ariella wake up." Blake yelled again. His voice had me groaning and holding my head. I felt like I had stayed up for days on end. My body and head ached the more I groggily woke up. "Go away." I demanded as I tried to get comfortable. It took a second to gain my bearing but when I did I stiffened as memories hit me and I felt the soft blanket. It was a dream? "Ariella you've missed to many classes, my father is going to be furious when he gets back." Blake exclaimed. His father still wasnt here. "Please go away." I whispered with less bite than before. I didn't know how to coop anymore. "I didn't think you would be so disobedient with me gone just for 4 month." A deep voice sounded having my heart race. It was him. I was quick to pull the covers down and peek. He was sitting next to me not Blake. He looked exhausted and I knew I should've let him rest but I couldn't wait to hug him anymore. "You really missed me didn't you?" King Alexand
Ariellas pov 8 months. King Alexander had been gone for 8 months now and Alax still didn't know when he would be back. I had seen him once only and that was the day he brought me this necklace. "You know." I sighed right as warmth spread through me obliterating any of the doubt that I had about King Alexander again. Everytime I thought about how this relationship wasn't working the doubt would be pushed out by this necklace. "Is everything okay?" Alax asked as he looked up at me from his nachos that were loaded alittle too much. The cheese and meat were outshining any of the other ingredients that he had decided to massively pile onto the poor plate. "It's just that I don't want to wear this necklace anymore." I half whispered, already knowing where this conversation was about to go. His narrowed eyes told me I should've kept my mouth shut. "Is something wrong with it? Do you need me to adjust it?" He asked with a raised eyebrow. "No." I sighed as I reach
Hector's pov "What if I can't rewind time?" Maverick asked as he pointed his knife towards Alexander Jr. "Than that means you aren't powerful enough to be ruler." Alexander Jr. said without showing any fear. Maverick chuckled as he used his powers to have his knife floating in the air. "So I'll be the only one with magic if I can't go back in time?" He asked wryly. I cursed Christopher for the bad fortune he sent our way because there's no way Maverick could be this lucky without his fortune and our misfortune. "All magic will go away if Ariella doesn't wake up soon." Klaus stated in a matter of fact tone. "So I'm the only hope." Maverick stated with a wry tone. All I felt was dread and regret. Yes, Alexander was dangerous, but he also was reckless, which gave us hope. Maverick, on the other hand, was far from reckless. He spent 100s of years watching Alexander and Ariella. while never showing himself until it was necessary. Alexander would've never been able to stay away
Mavericks Pov I looķed over at Alexander and chuckled darkly. "I guess you guys couldn't wait until my son is brought back to life." I said with a bite at the end. Maybella looked up at me with glossy eyes that had me grinding my teeth together. I looked away from her and over to Alexander. "Heal my son now." I ordered. Alexander lazily looked over towards me with lust filled eyes that had me narrowing my eyes. When he looked down at Maybella and completely ignored me, I lost it. I grabbed maybellas' hair and pulled her off of him. "Fuck that hurt." Alexander said. "I didn't mean to." Maybella said quickly. "Do you like getting your hair pulled?" I asked because I had grabbed her hair tightly, and she didn't make a sound. Slowly she blushed making me narrow my eyes. I didn't have time for another goddess. "Fix my son and wife. " I ordered again. Still he ignored me completely. I looked at maybella in a warning that she didn't take seriously. "Tell him to revive my s
Hector's pov "My mom only wants you because you betrayed my father.' Alexander Jr. exclaimed, causing me to groan internally. I kept my mouth shut even though I wanted to tell everyone that Ariella belonged to Noone. "I thought she wanted me because of how good i made her feel compared to your father. " Maverick said with a wry smirk.. "I will kill you." Alexander Jr. growled as he stood up." Mia was quick to grab him by his collar before he made ths situation worse. "Let me go." Alexander Jr. demanded. "No, you are to go home." Mia said sternly, earning a death stare from Alexander Jr. "Im not a baby, and you will stop treating me like one.." Alexander Jr. demanded as he shrugged her away. "Until dad gets better, you are to listen to me." She said confidently. "I'm not listening to you." Alexander Jr said. "You have no choice since I'm going to be the new ruler. Mia declared. "The throne is to be mine."Alexander Jr growled. You are too immature to rule." Mia sang. "Yo
Hector's pov "Kill them now." Maverick roared within seconds of his son and Ariella collapsing onto the floor. I stood frozen as I stared at the hole in Mavericks sons chest. "What have you done." Zavier yelled with what sounded like helplessness. I turned my attention back to Blake and instantly stiffened as I stared at the heart that was in his bloody hand. "I didn't do anything that dad would be upset about. Anyways, mom isn't a prisoner. It's about time everyone here remembers that." Blake spit out as he squeezed the heart until it burst. Blood splattered onto Mavericks clothes, causing him to look down before slowly looking up at Blake with eyes that were full of hate and deadly promises. "I said kill them now." Maverick ordered again. "Daddy, you have to get healers to help my brother and mom." Mia said softly. Alexander gave a nod, and within seconds, healers were teleporting in. "Heal her."Alexander ordered them with a lot of aggression"What about my brother?" Mia
Hector The God of light Wisdom and creations Pov "Of course I'm still taking you." Christopher stated wryly. I gritt my teeth as I chuckled a self mocking chuckle. "Well than it's settled, I'm going on a vacation." Ariella sang gleefully. I said nothing even though every part of me wanted to yell at her to open up her eyes. Unfortunately I could do nothing with her here because the last thing I needed to do was release my anger before she left and cause the darkness in her to consume her. Once she left though I would fight even if it killed me. I knew that it was reckless but I had to do something. We had more Gods on our side now that Maverick betrayed Alexander. I opened my eyes and looked over at Alexander. The way he was looking at Maybella with lust and love filled eyes told me that if we didn't act soon he would be lost forever. He had to be able to fight the control Maverick had on him. There was no way he was not powerful enough to beat it. He had Ariella's powe
Hector The God of light wisdom and creations Pov Ariella's cheeks instantly turned red as she took in Zains words. I didn't even have to guess to know that Maverick taught him everything he needed to know in order for them to rule for an eternity. I wanted to believe that Ariella would listen and take our words to heart but I knew that she was too lost in the love Maverick somehow got her to feel. Still I could not just give up so without thinking things through I slowly spoke. "Maverick tortured you too Ariella, he helped break you for years. He helped trick you into falling back in love with Alexander or do you not remember that?" Slowly the darkness that seemed to be consuming her showed in her eyes. Maverick leaned over towards her and whispered something in her ear that I knew was against me. "You are consumed in darkness mom, you are just too lost too see what he's doing to you." Blake snapped aggressively. I balled up my fists and gritt my teeth because Blake was re
Maverick The God of dark wisdom and creations Pov Slowly a smile formed as Alexander jrs eyes dimmed and his powers came to a stand still. "Now you will be as powerful as a half breed until you agree to your loyalty towards us." I lied. He would be weak for an eternity if I achieved my goal. I would not allow him to be powerful. He was originally one of my biggest obstacles and if not for Christopher having Ariella drink something while she was pregnant with him that would slowly weaken his powers I would probably be struggling right now. Luckily Ariella put herself on a path of fate that made her weaker than me otherwise that drink wouldn't have made it to him. He would've known that Ariella no longer wanted Alexander in the future and would've been able to help his father prevent it. Unfortunately for him Ariella and Alexander kept him as a baby for too long so by the time he aged the magic worked it's way through his body. Had Klaudia done what Ariella asked and p
Ariella's Pov I stiffened as I took in Mavericks words. The only one that can do something about it listens to his every command. Was Alexander under his control? "See Ariella he controls Alexander. He's the reason Alexander is with Maybella." Zavier stated quickly. "He doesn't control me." Alexander snapped angrily. Maverick slowly looked at him with a smirk that had me going wide eyed. "You aren't to speak during these meetings. Only when I need you to create something will you be involved unless I say otherwise." He exclaimed with a wry tone. Alexander's eyes went big as he stared at Maverick with mixed emotions. "Do you understand me?" Maverick asked lowly. "Yes." Alexander mumbled in what sounded like defeat. I watched as Maybella looked at Maverick with want and need. I narrowed my eyes at her which she did not take to heart. She wouldn't take her eyes off of him and I hated it. "Can't Maybella stay at home?" I asked with annoyance. Maverick slowly looked a
Ariella's Pov (after reset)A small whimper left my lips as I collapsed onto the bed. Maverick was nothing like Alexander and I loved it. He worshipped my body and made me feel like I was the most important Goddess to exist. Even with how aggressive and dominating he was I still loved every second of it. I would never complain no matter what because he was perfect and I couldn't ask for someone better. After throwing the sword at Christoper and waking up to him laying next to me I couldn't stop myself from making love to him. I refused to ever let him go and lose him. I would accept this fortune and pray that it didn't go away. "Let's sleep alittle." I whispered as I closed my eyes. His hands went to my back and his lips went to my shoulder causing me to shiver. "I thought you said we would go until you were pregnant." He whispered against my skin. A small whimper left me as he slowly lifted me up and put me against his chest. "I was thinking we could rush your preg
