Ariellas pov "Sweetheart I know you are upset but I promise I did this to protect you." I couldn't even look at him right now let alone talk to him. "Baby how about you order something to snack on while we wait, maybe get an appetizer." My father kept trying to get anything out of me but all I could give him was my presence. I think if I talked I would break down. Call me dramatic but when I looked in the mirror in my hotel room a few tears left as I took in how short and different I was compared to everyone else. Nobody my age was as short as me and in order to take away from my true size I wore dresses. Now everyone could see the true me. "Hey Zavier. I'm sorry I'm late." A soft voice had me looking over. My father had stood up already and was now taking off a lady's coat. Her tight black dress caught my eye and had me looking away. I didn't even have it in me to look down. My childish pink shirt and blue jeans were definitely not appealing. I guess he just wanted to pu
Ariellas pov (6 year old Ariella After Meredith rewinded time) "Now I have important business to handle and will be a few hours longer because of this fiasco. I expect you to be good guests and not to bother me." The King declared. The door was shut right after he was finished talking. I spun around and hurried up to the door. I tried to open it but it was too hard. My dad didn't even say good bye. "Hey ouch." Someone cried out. I tugged at the door harder but it still did nothing. I didn't want to be around fighting. My arm was grabbed as tears left my eyes. I lookes back into grey eyes that were super pretty even through my tear filled eyes. I was pulled away from the door by the boy that was called Alexander. He wasn't rough but he was still pulling me in a demanding way. I just stumbled forward as I tried to get my feet to work. On the floor close by me Alax was rubbing his elbow. It seemed that he was pushed. A few more tears left me as I tried to wiggle my arm away. Wa
Alexander The God of absolute dark powers pov I was using all my strength to push her out of my magic flow. White glowed around her, making her seem like an Angel but we all knew she was no longer an angel. I tainted her and now she was the most dangerous dark soul in existence. She was never suppose to touch that book. I was the only one that was allowed to but she still tried to use it against me and now she was being consumed by it with every bad emotion. "Okay Ariella to become queen we need you to give Alexander complete access to your power. All queens need a King to help them yield the sword. You are a princess that likes pretty dresses and playing dress up which is the perfect candidate to be queen. Now I'm going to need you to push all power towards him so you can become a queen who will be pampered with the finest." Klaus demanded in a way that would appeal to Ariella. I could tell he was just as furious as we were but he still had to be grateful because had he put
Ariellas pov "Daddy I'm really hot." I whispered as he slowly wiped my face off. He was looking down at me with soft eyes even with me making him miss work. "I know baby." He whispered as he patted my face with the towel. "Am I dying? Is that why you aren't mad at me?" I asked as more tears left my eyes. "No you aren't. You are just sick. How could I be mad at you for being sick?" His soothing voice had my heart swelling. "I wish I could hug you." I whispered as I got hotter. A ice bag was set on my cheek. I rubbed my face into the ice bag. It was the only time I felt alittle cool. "I don't want to make you hotter my love." He sighed. I had been like this for weeks and all I wanted was his hugs and kisses "Can I get a teddy bear. Maybe Mr. snuggles?" I asked with puppy eyes. He rubbed my cheek a few times as he looked down and tried to make a smile on his face. "I'm sorry baby but they might make you hot to." He whispered. What if I never got cold again? "If I'
Alexander The God of absolute dark powers pov "Did you really make all her bears fatter." I asked Zavier as I eyed him after he laughed about her reaction. He was really getting close to Ariella. It seemed like whatever Klaus did truly worked wonders. She was the daughter he never had and that would be forever. "I mean she has a big imagination so I helped fuel it. She's been getting worse everyday and I wanted to keep her spirits up since she asked me if she was dying and than told me not to tell Mr snuggles." Zavier said as he scrolled through the map of the next realm we would be going to. I cringed at that. I knew it was getting bad but I couldn't go around her until she got older. I was no longer a child and she could never know about magic or Gods. "She's only going to get worse until all the darkness seeps out of her. That could be years depending on how consumed by the book she was." Klaus stated as he marked off spots that were important on the huge map we had
Alexander The God of absolute dark powers pov Weeks became years as I waited for Ariella to get better. Klaus wasn't lying when he said she would only get worse. I knew my soul hated me for aging myself but I couldn't go on a conquering quest as a 7 year old to 14 year old. It would forgive me eventually. "You look stressed." Sasha said from across me. Why I came out with her I don't know but I could use some company. So when I got her request to eat out I took it without much thought. "Yea it's been a long time since you know." I sighed as I rubbed my face. I had let my stubble grow out alittle more so now every time I rubbed my face it pickled me. It was satisfying. "Oh yea. How old is she now?" She asked as she drank some of the fruity cocktail that the server brought over. I looked down at my water and groaned internally. I didn't drink anything besides water unless I was at home. The fear of losing everything to temptation was real but I would conquer it nomatter what.
Alexander The God of absolute dark powers pov. "So you betrayed me." My chuckle was one of self loathing. How could I allow this to happen again? I looked at Sasha who seemed to have paled a few shades. She had every reason to be scared because no matter who's fault it was she was dead. As I lifted my hand up with the black matter flowing freely as it was ready to be released my shoulder was grabbed and I was slammed into the wall away from the bed. When I looked up, Klaus had eyes that were glowing bright. I guess he wanted a fight and a fight he would get. "Relax. I didn't betray you, I was showing you how easy it is for you to lose everything." He snapped out right as I threw the black matter at Sasha. My eyes went wide as I watched the flashlight that blinded us hit the floor. Klaus charged into Sasha having them both fly through the wall on the right side of the bed. Small pieces of paint fell onto the floor as the wall crumbled around the hole they made. The b
Ariellas pov (18 year old) I looked at my dolls and slowly put them up. "Baby are you ready?" My father asked as he kneeled down next to me. "I don't want to go. It's not fair." I whispered as I twirled my dolls blonde hair in my grown up hands. I just wanted to stay home and play but my father had other plans for me. We had been arguing back and forth all week and he still didn't care that I didn't want to go. I deserved to stay at home. I brought my doll closer to me and started to braid her hair. If I was grown I could stay home alone And that's what I planned on doing. My doll was snatched out of my hand and put back on the shelf with all the rest before I could react. I quickly buried my head into my knees. "Ariella I know you just got better but baby time doesn't stop just because your mind does. I allowed you to stay young in your mind because I knew you were suffering but now it's time to try to grow up. Even if for just one night. All your toys will
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
