Persephone: Leonidas' Domina 52- Persephone
Persephone Diamandis was the type that never had to ask for attention.She demanded it.Which was what she got when she came out of her carriage, the eyes of everyone in the garden behind Castle Laskaris falling on like she locked them in a trance.The first, breaking out of it anyway, being Stylani who had on a black gown that had pink laced around it. "What are you wearing?!"Persephone, who was dressed only in a white suit jacket, showing her chest and cleavage without wearing anything underneath, black top hat, white gloves, walking stick on one hand and white trousers.A splash of the other nine Familia colours all over her clothes."You would not believe what happened," Persephone said as she walked closer, removing the top hat, her brown hair having some parts of it white as she said, "On my way here, a unicorn fell off it's rainbow and farted on us. Yes, quite remarkable." Taking a wine glass from a passing waiter, she took a sip from it and said, "Ah yes, I am exhausted, I te

Leonidas Aetos had not thought the day would begin the way it did.Personally, the week had begun marvellously and the thought that maybe one day Persephone would be by his side kept him happy through it all.Except today.He did not feel happy today."What do you mean by he is leaving?!" Leonidas suddenly demanded as he shot up from his seat, the scrolls on the desk infront of him falling to the floor.The servant at his room door still had his head bowed as he stammered, "He-He has his suitcases being sent to a carriage. I-I just thought you should be aware that he is since you and Lord Loukas have not been on good terms lately."Of course, they had not.Ever since their little fight, they avoided one another, or perhaps, Loukas avoided HIM.The male refused to eat in the same dining hall or leave his room to join Leonidas anywhere which had hurt at first but Persephone had told him that sometimes people needed space after a fight.She had not mentioned that he could just leave!"Wh

His thoughts went on a rampage, his heart threatening to leave his chest as he went as fast as he could.When he reached the lowest floors, a guard positioned infront of a cell was already blocking him. "I am sorry my Lord, but you cannot come here.""Why?" Leonidas asked, just for asking sake, because no answer the male gave would stop him from seeing her."She is dangerous. She had waited for the guards to come pick her after the deed she had done," Then as if to scare him, the guard whispered, "It is probably because she is a pharmakis."Immediate rage filled Leonidas as he suddenly thundered. "Get out."The Ares Familia Infront of him was surprised at the voice his Lord was using. The first time he had ever heard the male sound so authoritative."My Lord-""Your head would no longer be on your neck if you dare deny me entrance one more time," Leonidas cut in.Immediately, the guard moved away."The keys,"It was placed in Leonidas' hand."You may leave."It was only a few seconds b
Persephone: Leonidas' Domina 55- Persephone
Persephone had felt many things in her life.Disappointment.Betrayal.Hate.Hurt.But nothing, nothing, could compare to how she felt at the moment.After Leonidas had left, the idea that she would be away from him, if she was eventually exiled, struck her hard.She had imagined that he would come with her. That he would not say no to her request.That she would be able to shield him from the war that was bound to happen one way or another.That she could spend her last moments with him without fear that she would never see him again.But Persephone had never really gotten what she wanted.The gate to her cell opened again but Persephone did not need to turn around to know who it was.The aura of whoever it was, was blinding and intoxicating enough to give her an idea "It is so nice that you came to pay me a visit,""I could not have avoided a guard who said you had bewitched my son to come and rescue you from your cell now, could I?"Persephone Diamandis slowly turned, a small smile
Persephone: Leonidas' Domina 56- Persephone
No matter how many times Persephone scanned the throne room that was only lit up with a bulb hanging over her head, ignoring the voices of the men seated in a semi circle some feet away from her, she could not see Leonidas.At first she feared that the war in Renatus had begun and she had lost him but Gerasimus Eliades was seated there with Kostas behind him and they were the only head Ares Familias that would have been of any importance.Among him were Michalis Laskaris, his first child and son, Orion Laskaris behind him. Dimitris Aetos and Charilaus Diamandis.Leonidas was no where."Exile?" Michalis Laskaris was a man with a calculating gaze and beard he kept stroking, "She mutilated my daughter's hand.""She is a High Family," Dimitris' voice was low but loud enough in the near empty space and he had regained his confidence. "We all know we can sweep this under the carpet and pretend it did not happen but Charilaus believes she needs to be punished.""And she has to be," Charilaus

She could see him standing right there at the other side of the road but he was distracted because he had a crowd around him and he was smiling.Smiling the way he smiled at her when they were together.She looked around, hoping she would see a familiar face but the people who passed only sneered at her, their words cutting her sharply at the sides.Pharmakis.Witch.Her eyes frantically searched everywhere for someone but when she realized all she had left was him, she decided to call out to him. "Leonidas!"But he did not turn.Her heartbeat rose immediately, the fear that he could not hear her, or perhaps, was ignoring on purpose struck a determined need to reach him.Her legs took her first before her mind could process the information.She ran as fast as she could, screaming his name along the way but all of a sudden, the ground beneath her sunk and she was going below.She could feel the hands clawing her feet, dragging her back to where she had escaped from.Dragging her back t
Persephone: Leonidas' Domina 58- Loukas
Loukas Mikos had stood in the shadows of the throne room away from all the eyes that could possibly have spotted him but he had heard everything he intended to hear.And seen all he wanted to see.Still wearing his cloak, he had left the throne room and proceeded to leave the Castle even though from the little he had seen outside of it, there had been a crowd awaiting her judgement.Acting like they wanted her head.Loukas had for a second wondered what she could have possibly done to make so many people wish her death this much but he had ignored it and gone to her Castle instead.The darkness around the place had worsened when he reached, giving it to a more chilling feel that made one dare not even cross over but still, he kept on with his journey until he reached the door and knocked, braving himself for whatever and whoever stood at the door.Yet the face he saw open it had not been what he had expected."Oh, hello!" The owner of the voice was nearly shrieking as she said those w

He noticed that she walked slowly, her hands behind her back which was slightly bent and a bulge on it before they reached the garden and she was sitting on a table that had two mugs with steams coming out of each one on it."Had you been expecting someone else?" Loukas asked as he slipped into the empty seat infront of her.She gave him a smile. "Not exactly. I knew you would come.""How?""You asked Achilles of me and I was a competition in our little game with Leonidas so you would eventually come to meet me. Plus, I saw you in the room."He blanked, "That is impossible. I was hidden.""The darkness does not hide everything," She replied. "It might hide your face but I could still feel your presence.""That is something a Pharmakis would say,"She smiled at him "How would you know? Have you met one?""No," He replied. "But it is weird, and they are supposed to be weird.""Right," She said with a chuckle.They sat in silence for a while, Persephone sipping on her tea and looking at

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
