Chapter 4

I arrive at the garden and see Storm so I walk up to him and we start walking around "I know you are in love with Soren" says Storm and I look at him surprised

"I over heard my mother's lady in waiting Lady Reyja Bedite talking to your lady in waiting Lady Marina about it and you know they can spot love a mile away being descendants of Aphrodite the goddess of love I just wanted to let you know I'm sorry that you can't be with the one you love but I'm hoping that even though you can't love me that we can be friends that might make our marriage more bareable for you" he says

"Thank you I would love to be friends with you Storm" I say smiling and he smiles back.

After that I go back inside and soon a week passes as preparation for the coronation continues until the day finally arrives

on the day of my coronation I'm in my room with my ladies in waiting helping me into my blue, white and gold ancient Greek styled outfit they also put my hair up with some beautiful gold hair ornaments.

After I'm dressed I walk to the throne room and see my husband standing outside the door in a blue, white and gold ancient Greek styled outfit

I smile and take his hand as the doors start to open "announcing Imperial Crown Prince Storm Olympus a descendant of Zues and Imperial Crown Princess Atia Sarai daughter of Hades and granddaughter of Hera" the announcer says as me and Storm walk down the Isle and kneel on the steps in front of the throne as Lord Idur stands in front of my husband and Lady Gelene stands in front of me both holding a crown

"Will you solemnly promise and swear to govern the people's of the Holy Olympus Empire regardless of race according to our respective laws and customs" says Lord Idur

"I solemnly promise so to do" me and my husband say in unison

"Will to your power cause law and justice in mercy to be executed in all your Judgements" says Lady Gelene

"I will" me and my husband say in unison

"Will you to the upmost of your power maintain the the laws of the gods and goddesses" says Lord Idur

"I will" me and my husband say in unison

"I now pronounce you Emporer Storm Olympus a descendant of Zues and Empress Atia Sarai Olympus daughter of Hades and granddaughter of Hera" Lady Gelene and Lord Idur say in unison as they set the crowns on our heads and we stand to face our new subjects smiling

"I objective to this" we hear from the crowd then I see Soren step forward and I frown in confusion

"I am the actual son of Zues so I'm more qualified to be Emporer than someone who's bloodline is so diluted but if you hand over the crown right now no one will get hurt" he says as I gape in surprise I hear my husband respond but I'm too shocked to hear what he says then I see Soren muster up a lightning bolt and throw it a Storm but I manage to put up an ice wall just in time to block the attack

"Aw yes the daughter of Hades you stopped me this time but I'm not done yet."

He summons more lightning and charges at me. I block his attack with another wall of ice then I counter attack wrapping my hand in fire and punching him in the stomach.

He cries out in pain and backs away but his not done yet and some more lightning shaping it into a sword so I summon a sword of fire as we clash again our swords clashing against each other causing a rain of fire and lightning but I start pushing him back so he jumps back out of reach.

I will return with an army and I will burn this empire to the ground if I can't have the throne then no one can" he says and then he disappears after that we send everyone home for their safety and Storm turns to me

"How are you doing I know you love him and I know you don't need me to remind you that you are the only one strong enough to beat him" he says

"I know right now I just need some time alone" I say sadly and then I walk to my room

Soon after my mom comes into my room and I run into her arms and start crying

"Why would he do this I'm the only one strong enough to beat him but I don't think I can kill the man I love mom" I say as I sob in her arms and my ladies in waiting, maids and guards leave the room

"I know you don't think you can do it but you are stronger than you realize and when the time comes you will have to decide what is most important to you" she says

I end up falling asleep crying in her arms and I wake up the next morning in my nightgown

"How are you doing this morning Your Majesty" says Marina

"Marina you are a descendant of Aphrodite so you know how in love with him I was so please don't ask questions you already know the answers to" I say sadly

"I'm sorry Your Majesty I had the maids run a bath for you maybe that'll help" she says

"Thank you I say I go into the bathroom and strip down and then get into the bath tub after my bath my maids help me get dressed in a green gown with golden accents

I sit down to eat my breakfast which is some fruit, cheese, and toast with coffee to drink but I only eat the toast and drink the coffee and I have the rest sent back
