Chapter Twenty-One

"You want us to fix our relationship, is that right?"

"Yes, I believe that you and me deserve a second chance"

You nod slowly at Apollo, comprehending his words.

Apollo gazes at you waiting for your response, his expression filled with hope and expectancy.

His chariot continues to cut through the air, the landscape below is a blur of colors as you speed past.

The only sound that fills the air is the whipping of the wind against your faces and the creak of the chariot's wheels.

Finally you break the silence and answer, "A second chance? Why do you think we deserve one?"

"Because our relationship was destroyed for pitiful reasons" Apollo points out as if this is true.

"Pitiful reasons? You literally kill everyone who is close to me, my worshippers, Hyacinthus, and you cursed Cassandra"

You list down all the toxicity caused by him in the relationship.

He grits his teeth together as you call him out, his eyes narrow and his hands ball into fists around the

"You know why I did that!" he exclaims, his voice raised.

"I was angry and envious of your admirer, I saw them as a threat!"

He looks away, trying to gather his composure.

"I know I've made mistakes, but I truly do love you, can't you see that?" his voice cracks, pleading with you to understand.

As you listen to Apollo's response, you feel a mix of emotions.

On one hand, you appreciate his willingness to take responsibility for his mistakes, but on the other hand, you're not sure if you can forgive him for everything he's done.

Also, you weren't perfect in this relationship too.

"Apollo, I appreciate your honesty and willingness to make things right, but love alone can't rebuild our relationship"

He narrows his blue eyes at you before chuckling.

"You are saying that, but you took the chance to be with my twin brother just because he reminded you of me"

Of course, Artemis couldn't keep his mouth shut about the kiss, who could have guessed.

The only reason why you returned with Apollo is because you don't wish to help the Greeks anymore.

Even if that meant you won't return to your own world.

"I think he forgot to mention that I did it for a deal, and nothing more"

The whole ride to Olympus was spent in silence, both of you not knowing what to say to each other.

However, when you arrived to Olympus, you were informed that Zeus demands your appearance in the throne hall.

"Wow, it didn't take her long to come crying to her daddy"

You mock Athena as you stood in front of Zeus' throne looking all confident.

The god of thunder and lightning looks down at you from his throne, his expression cold as ice.

"Well, what do we have here?" he says, his voice booming throughout the throne room.

"Another argument between goddesses? But this time you tried to murder my daughter"

Everyone looks at you including a shocked Apollo but you stand your ground.

"Yes, I did" you reply, nonchalant.

"I'm sure she didn't, Athena likes to exaggerate things like the little bitch she is, father"

Ares comes to your defense.

You don't really think he did it for your defense, but rather to spite Athena whom he hates greatly.

Or maybe both, who knows.

Zeus' face is purple with anger, his hands gripping the arms of his throne tightly.

"(Y/n), if you can't control your anger and jealousy, you don't deserve to be among us, you will be punished, as I won't not tolerate this kind of behavior in my palace."

Athena looks smug at the whole situation.

Hera having enough of this, decides to stand on your side.

"What punishment will you have in store for her? Don't tell me it inculds you trying to sleep with her like the disgusting pervert you are"
