Avery's eyes widened. For a second she didn't realised what he was talking about, although she didn't believed in the Greek Gods, she has always seen them as a fictional story or world that the people have created for their entertainment but she still have read so many novels on Greek mythology, enough to know what half bloods actually mean. "You mean you have some kind of powers?!" She said out aloud. Though not all half bloods have powers, they are still different from normal people. "Yes." He said "But I'm guessing you won't tell me?"

Riccardo lifted her in his arms and threw her on the bed. "You are sleeping here with me on the bed and that's final." She lay there with him. He did not touch her, just like he promised.

He said and Avery chokedon her juice. "Avery you ok?" Dad asked as she was coughinghard. Avery whipped her head to look at Riccardo who was silently sipping on his juice with an irritatingly mischievoussmile on his face. "Your... girlfriend!!??" Felicia stood up from the chair.

I've been waiting forever!!" Rina screamed out as soon as Avery entered the cafe. "Rina calm down!" Avery said after she heard people grunting in disagreementand annoyance. Avery walked towards her table and sat in front of her. "Alright alright. Here, the presentation is ready. You need to check it and then tell me if there is something you want to change."
