Eleena was dumbfounded and instead of looking for people who can help them, she just went back to the island. The sun had already set when she stepped foot on the shore and it was a miracle that she did not feel an inch of fear while sailing back. Apollo was waiting for her with his hands on his waist. Eleena noticed that he is disappointed and worried but she is indifferent for now because of her encounter with the mysterious woman.  “Where have you been, Eleena? I told you to just stay here. What if something bad—” Apollo stopped scolding her when Eleena looked at him with a confused expression. Something tells him that something bad really happened to her.  He quickly went to her and examined her body. Apollo was relieved when he saw that she was not hurt but based on her expression, he’s not yet

“I think it’s a sign.” Eleena said as soon as she got out of her room. She had a little sleep thinking of her encounter with Persephone. She finds it odd that they had an accidental meeting so she had trouble finding peace despite knowing the identity of the mysterious woman.  Apollo looked at her before shaking his head. He can clearly see the determination of Eleena and he knows that it’s hard to discourage her. She sat in front of him and ignored him when he put food on her plate. Her eyes remained on his.  “Persephone won’t show up like that for nothing.” Apollo pursed his lips, afraid that he might spoil Eleena’s mood. “Hades must have sent her because they want to help us.” She added and this time, Apollo failed to keep his composure. Eleena looked at him wor

Eleena gasped when she felt a gush of wind brush past her face. She sat and started breathing heavily.  "What the---" she looked around before panicking due to the eerie atmosphere.  She slowly stood and tried to remember her last memory but she couldn't retrieve anything. Eleena hugged herself at the sudden rise in temperature but she still felt warm. It is as if the cool and warm air are joining forces.  "Hello?" No one answered but her echo. She looked around again and that's when she noticed the river nearby.  Eleena carefully walked towards it. The whole place is dimmed but she can still see properly. The place is similar to that of a cave but she cannot see anything on either end as if she

As soon as they reached the river of Styx, Eleena’s weakening soul vanished into thin air. The sight made Apollo panic as he started to look around for her soul. Hermes gave him an assuring pat on the shoulder but it didn’t comfort him.  “It returned to her body.” He said before they went back to earth.  Apollo quickly ran inside their house and into Eleena’s room. He put his ear against her mouth as his heart was about to burst while waiting for the rush of air to come out of Eleena. He sighed in relief when he felt her breathing. He couldn’t help himself but to thank the gods for allowing Eleena to return to life.  “What?” Apollo looked at Eleena with fear circling in his eyes. He then shifts his attention to H

Eleena woke up from her short nap. She immediately looked for Apollo but he's not yet home so she disappointedly went back to her room. It's already sunrise and this is the first time that Apollo left her this long. Her stomach has been begging for her food since last night but she's not in the mood to make one.  "What did I do wrong?" Eleena asked herself and she spent the whole night trying to remember what she did to offend Apollo but nothing came to her mind. Her last memory was of them discussing the pomegranate fruit but it ended well so she's really confused right now.  In the end, she cannot ignore her grumbling stomach. Eleena went out of the house and went to the mouth of the forest to gather some fruits. She stopped when she heard someone running in the deeper parts of the forest. Eleena wanted to think that it's

"What are you doing here, Apollo?" Athena glanced at Apollo before she continued wiping the blade of her spear.  Apollo made himself comfortable and sat on one of the benches in Athena's room. He also doesn't understand why he went to Athena when he could have gone to the other gods instead. Now that he’s here, Apollo is certain that Athena will either mock him or don’t care about his problem at all.  “Answer my question or you can leave.” Athena added when Apollo did not respond immediately. He sighed which caused Athena to tear her eyes off of her spear. “I am not a fortune teller to know what you are thinking, Apollo.” Athena said with a hint of annoyance in her voice.

Eleena woke up with the other side of the bed cold. She quickly sat upon realizing what happened last night. She couldn’t help but to feel her face burning as the memory of her and Apollo’s bodies touching dawn upon her.  “Did it even happen? Maybe I was just dreaming.” Eleena muttered as she looked around, looking for any sign that they cuddled.  She froze when she saw the crease on the bed sheet on the other side of the bed. Eleena bit her  lip to stop herself from screaming. It was a surreal moment that she never knew would  even happen. Her heart suddenly thumped as her smile kept on wanting to come out.  “He hugged me.” She whispered breathlessly. “And I want more.”

Apollo suddenly opened his eyes when he felt another presence inside his home. He quickly went out of his room, half-asleep, as he was triggered by the unfamiliar presence. Apollo stopped as soon as he saw Ares sitting at the table while Eleena was serving him food. A scowl quickly appeared on his face upon seeing his brother.  Eleena and Ares turned towards him but Eleena quickly looked away. Even though three days have already passed since she lost control of herself, she is still embarrassed. She wanted to help but she couldn’t do anything aside from letting the destroyer come out. She feels useless, especially after seeing how Apollo takes care of her no matter how many times she messes up.  “What are you doing here, Ares?” Apollo asked seriously before sitting across from his brother.

Apollo quickly panicked when he couldn’t feel Eleena’s presence inside the house. He quickly checked on her in her room but it was empty. He then went outside but there was no sign of Eleena.  “Eleena!” Apollo ran to the shore to see if the boat was still there.  He stopped when he saw Eleena. All the fear and anxiety inside him disappeared in an instant while staring at her. Eleena’s sitting on the sand while facing the sea. Apollo cleared his throat and tried to not mind the warming of his face. He got scared so fast that Eleena might have left and even until now, his heart’s beating quickly.  “Eleena. What are you doing here?” Apollo asked calmly before peeking at her. His brows knot when he saw Eleena’s

Eleena woke up because of the rays of the sun burning through her skin. She slowly lifted her arm then covered the light using her palm. She was confused for a moment before she realized that she had fallen asleep. Eleena sat up then looked around. There’s nothing but beautiful nature.  “You’re awake.”  She flinched when she heard someone speak. Eleena turned around and saw Apollo walking towards her. She quickly stood out of embarrassment. On the other hand, Apollo stifled a laugh when he saw Eleena’s messy hair as if it was nested by birds. There are even grains of sand that are stuck on it.  Apollo slowly approached Eleena and she was taken aback but she remained on her spot. Her eyes went wide when Apollo gently combed her hai
