 Artemis POV -:

I was furious.

Furious because I did not know where her son was hidden by Orion. Furious because if I didn't find him the other Olympians would find him.

I could not let that happen. I would never lose the pride of her oath that she kept. The same oath I by mistake broke for Orion.

Now Styx is about to come to ask me the choice.

*Flashback*

I remembered waking up and seeing Styx in her true form with a pleasant yet sad smile.

"Good morning Lady Artemis I imagine you did not go through the repercussions of you breaking your sacred oath," said Styx.

I was confused "What oath? I didn't break any oath Lady Styx." I spoke.

She frowned and said "Then may I ask what happened with Orion last night?"

"What do you mean?" I asked her perplexed.

Then suddenly I remembered everything.

"Oh no "I said shocked as everything came flooding back to me

"Oh no hardly covers it Lady Artemis I also sense you are pregnant."

"This can't be happening"

"But it is Lady Artemis."

"I have come to give you a choice to save your Oath but I warn you there will be a consequence and a price for both choices"

I was on the verge of braking down.

"There are only two choices, you tell the truth to the council in 5 years' time after the child is born and bear the consequences or you kill the child in 5 years. I will come back after 5 years to ask your choice."

After Styx left, I broke down into sobs and cried till my throat was raw.

Then I felt anguish. I had to plan an assassination and make cover story for his death.

*Flashback Over*

I have made my choice.

I may regret it but I have to protect my oath.

Styx materializes in front me.

"Have you made your choice Lady Artemis?"

"Yes, I am attacking Sparta as my choice."

"So, I assume you would protect your oath and have found where your son Perseus is hidden?"

I take a deep breath.

With a cold demeanor I say something no mother would do but I was desperate I had to,

"Yes, I have decided to kill him"
