Ariellas pov The layout of the party was fancy. There was light blue lighting up the room at every turn. The table center pieces were white and had white exotic roses that slowly lost a peddle every few seconds or so before they were regrowing their peddles. "They are edible and they allow you to enjoy the night more." King Alexander whispered into my ear. The music was nice and soft. So I didn't have to strain to hear. This was nothing like the first party I went to. Everyone was wearing a fancy dress and their hair was done to perfection. Colors filled the ball room all dark though. I think I was the only one with a white dress. "You are the guest of honor. Don't look surprised." King Alexander whispered causing me to blush from the attention. Even king Alexander blended in. Well sort of since he was still the high king and I doubt he would ever go unnoticed but his outfit didn't stand out. It was well fitted and looked nice on him but that was it. "L
Alexander The God of absolute dark powers pov "Alax." I called out to my son who was busy flirting with every goddess he laid eyes on. I couldn't find Blake so I had to settle with my less serious son. He was as efficient but still if Blake found out she was missing he would put his all in finding her. "Yes?" He asked with a huge grin on his face. I didn't have time for his jokes or games right now and soon his smile would be leaving. "We have a problem." I exclaimed as whatever I was drugged with made me more and more hot. No matter what I took to dilute it, it still stayed active and slowly intensified. I couldn't be drugged by a normal God so Klaus had to be here. "What's wrong?" His playful smile was quick to go away. "I need you to find Ariella now. I've been drugged." I gritted out as the need consumed me. Every Goddess that walked by helped fuel that need and it felt like I was on fire. It took so much effort to stand up. "Drugged." He whispered knowing
Ariellas pov I had been running around following his white hair for too long. Every time I thought I was close he took a turn. It's like he was trying to make me chase him. I didn't even realize the palace was this big. Not even too long after I started to follow him I regretted it because need slowly started to bubble up in my lower parts but it was too late to go back because I was lost. I took to many turns and nomatter what I did I couldn't stop. No matter how much the tingling made me want to stop and touch myself I kept going because I couldn't get lost in these endless halls. Turn after turn after turn. He was leading me on a wild goose chase and I wanted to scream at myself more and more. He made a right turn and I willed my legs to keep going because I couldn't lose him. "Ariella." His deep accent gave me hope and I made the turn to a balcony looking out at the stars. It was so beautiful at night. I hadn't been able to look at the stars since I start
Ariellas pov For Hours I sat out in the chilled night just looking out at the stars. My tears stopped after awhile and I came to a conclusion. King Alexander loved Sasha and Alax didn't really want to be my friend. Blake was probably the only genuine one but I didn't want to deal with any of them anymore. Foot steps told me that my peace and serenity was being interrupted. I actually felt at peace. I was okay with this revelation. I could protect the universes now. That sounded so selfish of me to want to chose him but it did take this for me to open up my eyes. "There you are. I've been looking all over for you." King Alexander sounded before I saw him. I tried to hold in my tears and not allow myself to grab my chest. Hours of no tears or pain all to have it return full force. "Is everything okay. You left the party and didn't come back." His soft voice was no longer comforting. It was filled with lies. He didn't even realize I was gone. "Yea." I lied.
Alexander The God of absolute dark powers pov "So what do you plan on doing? He breached our security and changed the surveillance. Mazaya obviously gave him more power than hes letting on since he was able to drug you." Aries rant had my agitation spilling over. "If I knew we wouldn't be having an emergency meeting." I snapped. I couldn't contain my anger. She obviously knew and wouldn't even give me the time of day. "She's sleep." Alax sighed as he flopped down in the chair next to mine. "Were you able to break through or get anything out of her?" My father was quicker than me to ask what I needed to know. "She broke down in my arms so my powers still work on her but she refused to show me her memories and my powers couldn't get them out of her. She closed up on me after I asked." He explained. His solem face had my mood dampening even more. "She trusts him. This is bad for you Alex." Zavier stating the obvious had me gritting my teeth from irritation. I al
Ariellas pov (Warning reader advised.) My body felt like it was on fire even as I ran through the pouring rain in the rainforest. "Ariella come back." King Alexander's loud voice had my heart racing as my bare feet splashed through the puddles. No matter how much shelter I had over my head the rain still poured down on me. My school uniform was heavy and my hair was soaked. "Baby come back." King Alexander yelled out from what seemed to be all directions. He was playing games with me. I promised I was done with him for cheating but still he acted like he didn't understand. He didn't understand that I was running to escape him. Not running because I wanted to. The rain seemed to come down faster the more I ran. Which explains how I missed jumping over the branch that came out the ground. I definitely didn't have time to catch myself from falling onto the ground in a huge puddle. I tried to get up fast but my leg was stuck. I pulled my leg with all my strength
Ariellas pov "You know who I'm talking about?" I whispered. I had thought this whole time that no one could see him. "Of course I do." He sighed. "Why wasn't anyone looking at him then?" I muttered as I realized I was an imbecile to believe that only I could see him. "You were the guest of honor and he chose to wear white even though it was stated no one was to wear light colors. So everyone acted like he wasn't there." His confident answer had me second guessing everything. "But I know what I saw." I whispered again. Just because he said it wasn't real doesn't mean anything. He saw the God, so what, that didn't mean he didn't cheat. "So you are sure it wasn't a glamour or do you really think I would cheat on you during a party made for you?" His wry question had me going red. I didn't know but I wasn't going to admit it. "It wasn't a glamour and like I said you were drugged by him." My attitude was forced out because even I wasn't sure anymore. I jus
Ariellas pov I didn't wait for an answer. I believed them. That was the only thing I believed. He seemed familiar and I'm guessing my past self knew him. "I want to go home." I stated as anxiety clawed at me. Everyone was tricking me, all because of that book. I got multiple worried expressions and I hated it. I wasn't crazy. I know what I saw. Maybe I questioned it a few times but I knew. "I'll take you home but I just need you to allow these nice Goddesses to clear your mind." The way he talked to me like a child had me wanting to claw out my eyes and pull out my hair. They were infuriating me. "I remember everything. I'm not crazy." I screamed probably looking more crazy than I wanted to. I wasn't crazy though. I remembered. "What do you remember?" Alax asked. I snapped my head towards him. His eyes were a soft blue with a hint of grey in them and they looked hesitant. His eyes changed colors like mine. "You can't trick me." I exclaimed. Just because
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
