Antheia
I could feel the lump in my throat blocking my airway as I felt his touch on my skin. My heart started to beat faster taking total control over my body. I could see that he notices my reaction as a smirk started to display on his face. "Nothing", I spat out quicker than I actually wanted". He repeated his question, as it was hard for me to breath. His hands softly touching my chin as he lifted my face up to turn towards him. That's when someone bursted into the room, making me stay frozen in the position we were, as I looked around to see who it was.
There was an unknown man that looked exactly like Artemis. We looked at each other for a split second when you could hear Artemis' voice follow, "Apollo, I can explain- ", she said before stopping dead in her tracks.
"What's going on?"
Her voice trailed as she looked at me and Ares. As I noticed that we still stood in the same position, I stepped back to see him still staring at me. My mouth slightly opened as the other man started to speak. "Who's this, Artemis?", he asked.
She looked at me before looking back at him. "I can't tell you that", she said. He then looked at me before looking at Ares, "Are you really not going to tell me who this is?", he asked with disbelief plastered on his face. Ares also kept his silence as the man decided to turn around. I could see that it affected Artemis just by the way she clenched her fist. "I see", he said before walking towards the door. "Wait-. I'm Antheia", I spat out. Ares and Artemis looked at me with widened eyes, as I knew exactly what they thought. Seeing that I answered he stopped before turning back around facing me, "What was your name?", he asked.
Artemis eyes screamed for me to stop but I didn't. "I'm Antheia", I sighed out. He walked closer to me as he stopped just right in front of me. "That can't be possible", he breathed out. I looked at him confused as he lingered his eyes between me and Ares.
"Is she- "
Ares
"Is she-", Apollo started to speak but quickly stopped as he saw my glare. She looked confused but didn't say anything as she watched his every move. "If you don't mind me asking, why are you so close to me.", she asked as she stepped back. He seemed taken aback by her answer, but quickly smirked. "She has sass", he said looking between me and Artemis, as our nervous expression still didn't change. No sound escaped our mouth as the silence lingered in the air.
"She is the secret, isn't she?"
Artemis
"She is the secret, isn't she?", Apollo asked referring back to the moments where he would catch our suspicious actions. Ares and I both nodded in agreement while Antheia looked confused. "Well it's nice meeting you.", Apollo said, reaching out a hand. Antheia reluctantly took his hand before shaking it softly. "Let's talk somewhere more private", Apollo dragged Ares out of the room leaving me and Antheia behind.
"Antheia! Why did you told him your name. Don't you get that it can be dangerous for the both of us", I semi-screamed. Feeling the stress build up, I started to walk unorganized around the room. "Artemis calm down, I need to tell you something that just happened", she spat out.
I stopped right in my track as I never heard her talk so seriously. "What? What happened?", I asked.
"There's a lot to unfold, let's just say I was right about Ares".
Antheia
After I told her everything that has happened, she stopped and looked me in the eyes showing no reaction. "Artemis?", I said slightly shaking her shoulder. "I-I, it can't be possible", she said blankly. "I'm so sorry", I said as I knew that it broke her image of Ares down. "But Artemis, you can't change the way you look at him.", I said.
She looked at me with disbelief. "How can I not look at him differently, he is not who I thought he was", she said. " I am so sorry but you can't, we need to keep him close. He's the only person that can help us understand everything. You need to try and infiltrated their plans. Let the rest in my hands." I said.
Ares
"Is she the girl you were talking about all along?", Apollo asked with an shocked expression. I slightly nodded not wanting to admit it. "You didn't tell me she was that beautiful.", he then said making me snap my eyes at him.
I clenched my fist, calming myself down just by the thought of him checking her out. I don't get why it affected me that way but just that thought made me want to punch him in the face. "Oh it's seems like I hit a nerve?", he said smirkingly. "Don't go there", I hissed at him. "Did you saw Eris? She was searching for you.", he said.
"Crap, I totally forgot about her"
