Cyane's despair
"Thank me, you queen. I've given you forever"
- Clementine Von Radics| Hades |
"You are what?" Gaia asked surprised
"You think it is a foolish idea?" I asked
"No, I think... I do not know what to think Hades, you have never shown such affection for a woman before" she laughed"She is the only woman" I said honestly
"Then do it" she smiled
I nodded, looking over the hall
Adorned in flowers of all kinds
Flowers that would surely die down here without Persephone's presenceBut she will be back soon
And I can ask her
For her hand
Her heart
For her life to bond with mine.• Persephone •
"I... what?" I asked shocked
He had supported me through this
Now he did not think Hades was good enough?"Hermes" I sighed
"No, listen to me, it is not because of... of me, I swear it. He is... he is not a good man Seph" he said, taking hold of my shoulders to make me listen
"Not many people I know are Hermes" I saidZeus had more marks against his name than any other god. And the man ruled over all of us
My own mother was trying to make me feel guilty for leaving her
She was starving man kind in the name of pityApollo and Ares had only been interested in me because I was something for them to marvel at
Something for them to show off
But I was not a thing. I was a woman
A woman who Hades had loved and cared for more than anyone else ever had.He dropped his head, thinking for a moment
"I just do not think he can give you what you want. You do not even belong in the underworld" he said
"Maybe I do" I said, taking a step back
"Have you never thought Hermes... just for a second that maybe he can give me what I want? Why does no body ever ask me? I cannot help who I fall for and I cannot help that the underworld feels... like home to me" I rambled"You have fell for him?" He asked
"I think so, yes" I answered
"And you wish to stay with him? Forever?" He asked
"I... I think I do Hermes, I... I love him" I said honestlyHe softened
"I am sorry" he said, pulling me into an embrace
"I am sorry Seph" he said again into my hair
"It is fine. Being down there does not mean we will not spend time together" I said, pulling away
"I know" he said
I offered him a smile"Come on, let us walk" I said, urging him on
