10- Leonidas
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Lenidas stared at his reflection, the now very obvious purple bruise glaring at him, his breath hitching in his throat as he stared.
His hands let the turtleneck sweater slip back to his neck, covering his little art, though a part of him wondered why he was even hiding it.
Because it is disgusting, because normal people don't hurt themselves, because we are trying to hide that tattoo on your back.
He sighed, staring at his hair that had been gelled back before the door to his room opened and he turned, seeing his friend who had his hair brushed in a perfect wave form, a purple silk chiton, a gold leaf crown and gold glitters on his eyelids with his gold choker and rings glistening under the light in his room. "You are not allowed to be sad today, I have put all the energy I have to make this work. ALL OF IT."
Leonidas gave a weak smile in return. "Is it too late to say that I am grateful?"

For the first time, he did not dream.Leonidas woke up, mind blank, his senses more alert than he could remember and his body in a frenzy.It was like had had taken something that had shown him a different plane, higher elevated plane even, everything he did send shivers up his body.Even his body felt sensitive to his touch.And he could feel it.Feel her still.The thought made him clench his nails in silent prayer, hoping that the throbbing that was beginning in between his legs would lessen.Leonidas turned to Kleopatra who was curled next to him, a warm feeling flooding his heart as he brought her closer to his body, watching her wake and stretch, her blue eyes blinking sleepily at him as she did so.Raising her to his chest, he nuzzled his nose on hers, flutters developing in his stomach as he whispered, "Good m

Somehow, Leonidas could tell what she meant.She did not just mean on the water, but for everything else, it was a test.A test of trust.Follow me wherever I go, let go with me.He got closer and when he was close enough, she said, "Take off your shoes, they do not like it, and the jacket and sweater, it is a bit hot here."He did not know what 'they' meant, but he obeyed, ignoring the thought that he had never been seen shirtless by anyone except Loukas in years and did as she asked.When he stood, and reached out for her hands, electricity jolted through his skin and he felt numb until she pulled him in.
Persephone: Leonidas' Domina 13- Hades
Hades could swear he raised her right, at least, in the mortal way, she was right enough.So she did not like gowns very much, had zero respect for the gods, spoke to creatures the gods had sent into exile, knew some secrets that no mortal should possess.Hades knew he was better than most.From the stories he had heard from souls that came in and out of his presence, he knew that mortal parents were mostly horrible at their jobs, filled with regret about the things they did and did not do, and always wished they could go back.Of course, Hades knew he could never let them return but it did not mean he did not like to hear their stories, for you see, that was one thing that kept him sane when Persephone was gone.Stories.Yes, he knew the story that circulated around his wife and himself but he could never care less about what they thought or said.&nb

Leonidas stared at his friend as the male got another tattoo on his back, the red panther tattoo being his neck being the only red thing in the sea of black creatures and words.The man doing the tattoo, a Dionysus Familia, by the name of Stratos, a friend of Loukas made him felt a bit uncomfortable because of his way of speaking and numerous rings on his nose but there was nothing he could tell Loukas to change the male's mind on him.Leonidas felt his eyes stray again to the red tattoo on Loukas' back, a little bit of jealousy filling him.Of course, he can flaunt his body and abs while I cannot for fear for losing my own head.As he saw the male stop and the needle being lifted off Loukas' skin, he felt himself heave a sigh of relief, the turmoil in his head taking a break.Loukas sighed, standing up and flexing his shoulder, the new phoenix bird tattoo on his back very wide a

It felt extremely uncomfortable.Uncomfortable in a way that confused him because he knew that some hours ago, he did not have any problem riding to the great beyond or any beyond with his Father but now...His heart thumped and his hands were sweaty, his hair stuck to his face and he kept tapping his hands on his crossed legs, but away from his Father's eyes to avoid any scrutiny.Their ride was quiet, but not the sort of quiet they had left in, the quiet that was pregnant with words that should be said before the moment passed.And thankfully, Leonidas was not the one who had to give birth."Did you talk to her?" Dimitris' voice was in low as he spoke, his eyes on his son who looked up at him with confusion before sitting up."Yes." Leonidas said, the memory striking something in his guts that made him gulp in and say, "I did not see her Mother."&nb

Stupid.He tore the scroll and set it in the small bin next to his dressing table, taking another scroll and raising the quill to it then letting out a small groan and resting his head on the table.What could he write?She had not specified, she had not told him. Even the idea that she had done so to him as a test to see if he was smart enough to spark her interest or to fail her and await possible punishment made him want to bang his head on the table but he did not.A headache would prevent him from writing any sensible thing."Leonidas!"The handsome male was back at his door, banging louder then before and

"Leonidas, honey."The curly haired boy raised his head from the sand, his face in a pout as tears filled his eyes. "Mommy."A blonde haired woman walked to her son as she glared at the other boy next to him. "Loukas, what did you do?"Loukas, the other boy with sandy brown hair and seafoam green eyes stared at her with pure defiance in his eyes as he stated simply, "I destroyed his sandcastle."Calista's eyes flamed up immediately as she opened her mouth, possibly to yell his head off as the boy in her arms shook his head, using the back of his hands to wipe his tears. "Don't get mad at him, I'd make another one."The woman looked at her son who was now smiling at her in all his baby cuteness, showing his missing tooth. "Are you sure?""Yes." He nodded now, turning to his friend, "You destroyed it because it wasn't good enough, yes?"It

Persephone: Leonidas' Domina Epilogue
It had been eighteen years since the war had come to an end.Since rumours and rumours about what had caused it appeared.They said that the citizens of Renatus had disobeyed the gods and had been punished adequately for their sins.That the god Zeus had been killed but had resurrected eventually.That Olympus had gone into chaos because demons from the Underworld escaped and possessed some people, mainly the Ares Familias (which they said was highly easy considering the fact they barely had a brain to think for themselves and that their souls were easy to corrupt)But the strongest rumour had been about a Pharmakis.Though most did not know her name, the few that did barely spoke it. They said that the god who ruled the dead lost his wife and used his dark magic to raise her, the darkness corrupting her and when the Council of Renatus punished her for her crimes, she cursed the land and started the war singlehandedly, or perhaps with her husband's help.However, her name was only use

The day that Persephone Aetos gave birth, the whole world stayed silent.Leonidas was made to sit outside on the porch, the darkness making it impossible to make sense of anything because it seemed that the moon had fixed itself at their living room window, shining it's light only on her. And particularly because of the fact there was no one sound from anywhere else, Leonidas could hear her screams louder than he had thought he would have to.It pulled at his heart and squeezed, making every breath he took hurt as Circe and Kleopatra sat next to him, their presence seeming like they aimed to calm him down, which he was grateful for, but then after a while of shrieks and scream, he heard nothing.The birds chirped again, the wind blowing soundly as if they were glad it was all over, before he heard the sound of someone wailing loudly.Leonidas stood to his feet and turned as the Cabin's door opened, revealing a Cleon with gloves and a sort of net over his head, his eyes glassy while h

"It is usually customary for families to have their portraits being drawn after the wife delivers," Loukas said softly. "Or that is what I heard and since we- We might not, I thought that I should- Just have it done now," Then he chuckled. "Fani and I found it- Exceedingly hard to hand this one over because no matter how hard I tried to replicate it, I could not. Is it- Is it alright?"Persephone felt the emotions choke her the more she looked at the painting, her eyes begging to tear up again though she fought the urge, turning to a silent Leonidas.He was looking at the painting as well, all the humor gone from his face."Leonidas," Persephone hoped that this had not ruined his mood.And when she saw him smile, she knew it did not. "You can have it."Loukas stared wide eyed. "I-I can?""Honest?" Fani asked.Leonidas nodded, "I already have enough things to remember her by. You both do not, so you can have it."Fani already had her eyes glistening while Loukas tried to look unbothere

She woke up with the rain.Leonidas had his hand around her body, his face buried into her neck while she stared outside the window of the Cabin, her breath steadying.She was cold and though he was keeping her warm, she wanted to walk around because her back hurt.So Persephone slowly peeled his hand off her body, the male making a small displeasing sound though he did not wake up and she stood up from the bed, staring at him.His hair as always danced all over his face and it made her smile, bending to brush the ones on it and kissing her forehead.Minutes later she had on a robe, a cup of tea in her hand as she stared at the raindrops on the glass, her other hand on her stomach.The day was getting close.Persephone before had found it hard to wake up everyday when she knew with each day, she got closer to giving birth but lately Leonidas barely even gave her room to have her own thoughts.He stuck to her so tightly that she even sometimes wished he would let her be for a while.So

Though she did not want to let him touch her, her feet did hurt and she sat, Achilles sitting on the grass as he held her blistering feet, his rough hands pressing them before she said, "Why are you here?"It was an odd thing to see such a huge man in such a manner as he was, but Achilles was everything odd. "The triplets and Mother sent me. Basically they wanted me to see if you were alright here, and they had things they wanted me to give you.""Not a snakes egg I presume?"Achilles smiled, "No. Not that.""Then what?" She asked then when he did not answer, said, "It is a snakes egg, is it not? By the gods Achilles, I will not let a boa constrictor live around my son.""No," Achilles was chuckling. "Mother personally picked this one. It is harmless and smaller. I already handed it over to Artemis when I came. She would train it when it hatches till you give birth."Persephone was staring at him questionably but said, "Alright. How are the men?""They ask of you endlessly," He replie

Persephone woke with her eyes falling on the figure seated in a chair infront of her. "What are you doing?" Leonidas paused, looking up from the book he was reading, a small smile coming to his lips. "Good morning," She smiled too. "Morning." He raised the book in his hand. "Reading. I found it a bit hard to sleep so I decided to see what you like about them." She chuckled, "And?" "It cures boredom until your favourite person wakes up and you want to throw the book to the wall cause you do not really like it," Leonidas said, setting the book down on the table as he walked to the edge of the bed and sat on it, brushing away a strand of hair from her face. "How are my two favorite people doing?" Persephone knew that he had no idea how those words made her feel but she smiled, bathing in his love. "We are kicking. That is what he is doing and that is why I woke up. With a kick." Leonidas chuckled. "Want me to punish him?" Her eyes glazed over. "Are you really about to do that, Leo

Now that he was aware who he was, his body suddenly tingled, goosebumps appearing as he stood, ready to bow before he heard him say, "I am not really into the bowing thing, that is for the other children at Olympus.""Oh," Leonidas said, "Y-You wanted to see Persephone?"His eyes glazed "I cannot enter the Temple, you are only there by pure grace. Plus, leaving home was near impossible now that Persephone is home. I am here to see you.""Me?""A little birdie tells me you are making my goddaughter miserable," Hades said, taking a step forward "Now, I did not come to threaten you but it is very hard to not watch your extremely beautiful face curl into fear."Leonidas' fear itself was rising and jumping over mountains. "I-"Hades raised a hand. "No explanations. It makes me want you dead more," Then he walked to the edge. "You know the first time I saw you? It was your fourteenth birthday I believe, your friends and Koinõnos were skinny dipping in the spring around your Castle, but you

It had only been weeks but to Leonidas, he felt like it had been years. Staying in the temple while he watched everyone live like nothing was happening. Like Persephone could not just- He had met Fani, her new Koinõnos who for some reason, he could not stand, perhaps because of the way it seemed like she had a bounce in everything she did. Plus, she was attached to the one goddess he knew he would never like. Athena. Athena, unlike her sister Artemis, did not even try to sugarcoat her hate, and it was not because of what he did to Persephone, no, it was just because she felt he was weak and she could not stand it. However, Athena adored Fani, the two being strong opposites as Fani was soft and sweet while Athena was everything that Leonidas did not like her. Proud. Haughty. Athena. Loukas had apologized on the other hand on how Artemis had behaved on the beach. Asides from the fact he had explained that the Temple doors led one anywhere they wanted, as long as they thought i

Leonidas stood, his head pounding again as his legs shook but he managed to get his body moving while he followed Loukas who was at the door, walking out of it and finding himself outside.And not just outside.On a beach.Leonidas wondered how that had happened since they just walked out of his room but shut it off as something less important.The sand felt cold under his feet, but the sun shone heavily, perhaps not affected by the winter storm below before he saw Loukas standing at the edge of the water and joined him, his eyes meeting the figure at the sea."They always dress like that," Loukas said, his eyes still on the woman. "Men are not allowed in the temple because they always try taking advantage of them but I am allowed because I do not care for women and you- Well, you will survive."She had blond hair and a lithe curvaceous body, the dress she had on wet and sticking to her body, showing everything that it was not supposed to as she kept flickering her hand over a body.Y
