Aides (COMPLETED)

Sixty Three

Kore

Zeus walks into the bathroom, shaking his head and grinning as he watches me struggle.

"Let me go you beast!" I rage.

"Beast?" He held his chest in fake outrage, "how dare you" He walks over to the sink to wash his hands.

Clumsily, I try to wiggle free, standing in the basin to  quicken my efforts but fell into the waters again.
He chuckles, watching me struggle before drying his hands clean.

"That was a close call, wasn't it Kore?"He fixes his hair before turning to face me.

"Was it?" I roll my eyes, failing to find the irony in his words. I try again to break free; his lighting bolts were piercing into my skin.

He jumps to the side of the basin, resting gently in it's barrier. "You know I forgot to tell you something. Just tiny detail I may have omitted"

I push my head against the tile wall, staring up at the ceiling while reluctantly listen to him speak. There is nothing Zeus loved more than hearing himself talk.

"How tiny is this detail?" I sigh, already knowing the implication of his words. The detail would be nothing short of tiny.

"Minute"

"Spit it out god of thunder"

"If you reveal your true identity, that you really are Kore, well..." His voice falters. He instead pretends to play with the ends of his robes.

"What? Tell me"

"Nah, I shouldn't" he frowns.

"Say it!!"

He sighs, standing up and peeling off his robes. I look away, eager to avert my eyes from his naked form. I felt the soft ripples of the water as Zeus dipped into the bath. "Well... since the potion I gave you is one made with the intent of deceit, if you reveal the truth of your identity, well you'll be stuck as Hera"

"What!! I fumed, thrashing in the waters even more violently. I closed my eyes and snapped my fingers, using my energy to break free.

"How did you do that!" he was a bit perplexed I had broken free by my own means. I could feel my powers getting stronger and stronger.

"And for how long will I stay as Hera if I were to let it slip that I was really Kore"

He pretended to think, tapping a finger to her chin. "Well...forever"

"Forever" He answers nonchalantly. Anger brewed inside my soul as I heard his promise. So this is why he was so eager to help me! Of course Zeus would never be this helpful to any deity without expecting anything in return.

"You can't tell anyone who you truly are. That is why I was so adamant when I interrupted.
You should be thanking me for telling you" He smiles, staring into my eyes before shrugging.

I swam over to his side of the basin, straddling over his lap as he leaned backwards. I push his shoulders back, seductively grabbing the back of his neck. He snatches my wrist before placing soft kisses upon each one.

"You're right. I should be thanking you Zeus. Imagine me looking like Hera? Forever?
I bet that would fill you with delight" I sneered, gently massaging his scalp. He was too excited about my seduction to question the transition in my character.

"I wouldn't mind having two women who looked like Hera" he cheesed boyishly.

I wrapped my arms around his shoulders, letting my palms fall around his neck.
He tightens his grip around my waist, pulling me into his excitement. I couldn't help but roll my eyes, eagerly tightening my hold around his neck. His smile dissolved as quickly as his passion as he felt my harsh grasp. "Hera... Hera..." his voice became strained. I force my grip, pushing him further and further until the back of his head hit the til.
