Ariella's Pov (present) "Sweetheart eat your food now." Alexander said gently as I pushed my food around my plate with my gold fork. I ignored him and instead pushed my fork into my peas making them become mushy. "Ariella baby I'm going to need you to eat." Alexander's gentle tone had me cursing myself a few times for even allowing myself to leave the endless path of fate. A soft hand went to my leg before I could look up from the sushi and peas that I had been served. I slowly looked down at my leg and my insides twisted at the freshly manicured nails. I tried to ignore the huge baby bump that I now sported because of Alexander and instead I looked over at Cindy. My chest tightened as I looked at her soft smile and possessive blue eyes. I knew that she was assessing me. They most likely thought that Hector did something to me since they could not get near my mind nor could they read my thoughts which I was grateful for. Her soft hand slowly went up my skirt forc
Maverick The God of absolute dark and light powers Pov I lazily looked up at Victor and smirked. The scowl he was directing at me would soon be wiped off his face. The semi dark room seemed a little to bright. I waved my hand and took away the light that Victor brought with him. I leaned back as I looked at him. "Maybe you should take the hood off since we all know that you aren't really the God of fate." I mumbled. Slowly his lip went up and he bared his teeth at me. "You know I don't think he appreciates the good fortune we gave him." Christopher stated with a chuckle. I slowly smiled as I lowered my eyes because it seemed like he didn't. "We had a deal." Victor spit out aggressively as he pulled his hood off. "Definitely doesn't appreciate the good fortune." Christopher exclaimed mockingly. "What good fortune? You guys promised me Alexander but now he hates me." Maybella cried with a fake sob. I slowly looked up at her and licked my lips slowly. "You lied to
Ariella's Pov Pain in my wrist had me whimpering and slowly looking down. "Sweetheart is everything okay?" Alexander asked me softly. I slowly looked up to him and Zavier looking at me funny. I looked down at my food and quickly busied myself with my eggs. "Ariella." Alexander's stern tone had me cursing my predicament. "Yea. I, ummm, I was just thinking a bracelet would be nice." I stuttered as I looked back down at my wrist that now had a heart burned on it. My chest tightened as I stared at the black heart that indicated that someone that I did not deem fit was able to create a bond with me. I rubbed the heart and willed myself not to freak out. I could fight whoever used one of my creations to force a bond with me. No matter how they did it there was no way that it would be stronger than my protection. "Sweetheart." Alexander's voice had me slowly looking up with a forced smile. The soft smile he gave me had me relaxing a bit. "Yes?" I whispered softly. I had to
Maverick The God of dark wisdom and creations Pov (3 weeks later) "My king the Queen has left out and is taking a walk now." Ariella's maid said with a apologetic grimace. I willed myself to not say anything and instead I looked over at the cameras that were following her. "So you are really just going to allow her to roam the realm freely after everything that just happened?" Arthur mumbled with annoyance. "I would rather not have all magic disappear so yes." Alexander exclaimed with aggression. "She clearly has all her memories. They most likely gave them all back to her and are just waiting unt." Arthur's words were stopped by me banging my fist on the table. "Enough." I barked with all of the built up aggression I had not been able to release. I had spend over a million years planning to take over the universe just for Ariella to one up me again all because of Gods that had no sense. "You have been quiet this whole time. What do you think we should do?" Ch
Ariella's Pov "Sweetheart you were just happy." Alexander said with a sigh as he sat down on our bed. My eyes narrowed as I moved away from him so he could not get any ideas. The way he was looking at me with a calculating gaze had me moving to the edge of the bed. "I wasn't happy." I mumbled my lie lowly. Alexander groan and tried to get close to me. The barrier was quick to stop him from touching me. Unfortunately for him with my memories the barrier would activate no matter if I was truly angry or not. All I had to do was not want someone near me and it would activate. "So you are going to stay mad at me forever?" He asked lowly. "Yes." My answer was instant and it would never change. Maverick and Victor underestimated me. "Ariella." He gritt out. I turned away from him and looked up at the ceiling. "You fell in love with another. Now I will never trust you when you leave." I mumbled defiantly. "I was tricked and tortured." He exclaimed angrily. "Maybe you'll b
Ariella's Pov "Okay conjure it up now." I said as I gestured to his arm. His lips went tight but he still nodded his head. "You can use my powers for this." I mumbled before he could get it on his wrist. His eyes glowed bright as I unblocked the well to me. Slowly he looked at me with a complexed expression. He most likely thought that Hector and Blake were the reason I could do all that I could do now. Unfortunately for him he would never know that fate made it where every single thing that I could've done I didn't. Had I had my memories things would've been different because only with me pacified could he rule the way he wanted. Fortunately for me someone bonded with me that was not suppose to so my will power was stronger than our bond. I just had to keep it like that and allow my possessiveness to not leave. The way he was looking at me told me that he would be trying to find a way to prevent me from ever blocking access to magic again. I just showed a few of my
Ariella's Pov Even with Alexander being angry about Victor and Maybella being here he still walked us over towards a seat too close to her for comfort. He slowly sat down in the chair. His hands loosened from around my waist giving me an opportunity I needed. I took no time in pulling away from him just to bump into a solid body. The pain in my stomach had me cursing. I looked up at Christopher and cursed everyone here. "I will never turn magic on. No amount of love can make me." I exclaimed with aggression. All he did was smirk as he gently pushed me back. My waist was grabbed and I was forced into Alexander's lap. "Now do you want to tell me why they are here." Alexander spit out angrily. Maverick said nothing and instead he slowly sat in a seat across from us. My body was pulled back flush against Alexander with a little too much force. A small smirk played on my lips as I realized that Maverick was no longer pretending to not want power. "Now that we are all
Hector The God of light wisdom and creations Pov "This is bad." Klaudia whispered as another animal turned grey. I cursed a few times as the alarms started to blink. "Why is magic off?" Vic asked with anger. When it first shut off we could only assume that Alexander did something to make Ariella jealous but not even a day later and the universe started to die. "Ariella most likely tried to leave Alexander." She whispered slowly. My head snapped towards her because that couldn't be. "She can't reset anymore." I stated as my wide eyes stared at her eyes that seemed to be filled with sorrow. "She can't." She whispered softly. "I thought you said that she did this so she could save the universe." Vic roared angrily. Her lips tightened as he looked down at the table. "Something must have happened that made her decide to leave him." She mumbled. She ran her hands through her hair like a comb as another animal went grey and the alarms got louder. "What could've happened
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
