Her Point of View
"So how's my brother doing? Excited for your wedding?"
"Stop it Eris, why don't you just go back to stalking Adonis and leave me alone."
"Uhhh... was my brother not happy to see his only sister?"
"Hebe is also my sister so please stop pestering me will you."
"No can do,his highness told me to keep an eye on you."
"Who? Zeus?"
"Nope, the other one with a big reaper on hand and wore a cloak with all those printed bloodstains and all."
"Death himself... Seriously what is Grim planning this time?"
"I don't no, so long as it doesn't concern me it's gonna be find."
I was about to call for Ares when I heard him talking with his sister so I just decided to give them some privacy.
I'm on my way to ask Hymen if everything is fine when I accidentally bumped into the goddess Venus.
"I'm sorry lady Aphrodite."
She glared at me intently and then shove me away...
"Out of my sight will you!"
"Y-yes ,as you said lady Aphrodite."
I am about to leave the hall when I heard someone shout.
"Hey...hey there wait up."
I immediately turn around to look for the voice and there I saw the wild goddess of the hunt.
"Are you going to the garden?" she asked with a huge smile on the face.
Of all the goddesses here she was this one who have the jolliest spirit, she's cute with her act. She have this celadon eyes which represent both the forest's color and the moon rays' and deep blue strands that symbolizes the sky.
"Yes miss. I am going to see the high priest and settle some things about the wedding."
"Can I go? Can I? Can I?" she's really cute, how rude of me not to let her.
"Sure." I answered. We were near the gate of the garden when she suddenly asked me.
"Ah sorry but aside from knowing your name I really don't what part you play at? I mean you are the goddess of..."
"Charms." I finished for her
"Aah so that explains why you have Ares fall in love with you..."
I just really hope that was that easy to make him love me.
"Congratulations... you are soon to be the wife of Ares though I'm not sure if that's good, I really wonder how you get to handle him."
I smiled upon remembering how I get to be in this situation now.
I was a childhood friend of Hebe that gave way to how I met Ares. He was the god of war and I went falling for him the time I saw him on one of his battles, I too don't know why but maybe that's how love goes. I tried to make friends with him but I failed, he was always irritable when it comes to me. I never had the chance to talk to him until such time when my family decided to engaged me in some fix marriage and though I wanted much to disagree I have to obey them still. I thought that that would end my hope to be with the guy I love but as fate would have it, it ended up that my fiancé was him. I really can't forget how I felt the day they announced who the guy I'm gonna marry was.
I was in the middle of my daydream when I felt like being shake. I noticed lady Artemis standing in front of me ,now snapping her finger.
"Ah sorry I was lost." I apologized
She just smiled but suddenly there was a change in her expression. From a smile her face turned somewhat worried? I'm not really sure bout that. She hurriedly turned her back from me then started chanting 'what do I do' repeatedly. I turned look the other way only to see her twin god coming our direction.
'They'd make a good couple I can see that'. I left her on the spot as the youthful god of sun and music took mine. Then I went proceed to Hymen.
****
Years pass and then here it comes, I was preparing for my wedding when I heard a knock from the door. I was actually hesitant to open it but when I saw who my visitor was I slammed the door wide open to hug her.
"Hebe, it's so nice to see you." I started
"Yeah sure I know but could you loosen your grip? I'm kindda need some air to breathe."
"Oops sorry."
"So you sure you wanna continue this?" she asked, I can see concern through her eyes
"Are you now my mom? I know that you are the goddess of the youth but I suppose I'm old enough for you to care about?" I tried to crack a joke but she seemed not to notice it.
"Look Charites I know you love my brother but he was not some simple god whom anyone could please, he was the fierce god of war can't you see?"
"I know but..." Buggggsssshh
I was shut into fear upon hearing a stroke of thunder hit near my window, I know Hebe felt the same. Then after some split of seconds we heard synchronic shouts that made us decide to go find out what's happening.
As we reach the end of the staircase we saw Hera running out away the hall, then looking from where she came from portrayed Apollo hugging Artemis who was lying on his lap while across them reflected the same scenario but having Zeus and Athena in the picture instead.
Everyone was crying except for only god who was standing at the center of the hall, proclaiming himself King of the Gods.
The sophisticated goddess gave him a deathly glare and raises one of her arms then releases a thunderbolt.
"ARESSS!!!" I fell on my knees seeing him quite burned, his right shoulder was injured and part of his face was hit by the bolt. But aside from those, majority of the damage was mine. I can see blood rolling down my face but I still heard Lady Athena commanded Heracles to take Ares and put him jailed then with that my eyes shut.
