Perseus POV

Call me cold. Call me heartless. Call me merciless. I don't care. That's what I am.

Why in this freaking world would I care? I'm the lord of the Kindreds, for god's sake. I decided to scout the cities, to destroy which one next.

My sights landed on one, Ellis.

That city was great and powerful. Ha.

I decided to fly over there, and get a look at their defences. Ellis, I'm warning you, you'll be no more, soon.

Annabeth

Me and Luke were...ah...officially married. And I have to say, I ain't happy 'bout it.

I still preferred to sleep in my chambers. Just the thought of sharing a bed with him...ugh. I shuddered.

Today, I watched the sun come up. The sky was a fiery shade of orange, along with beautiful streaks of red, pink, and purple.

I watched as the town below began a new day. The vendors and merchants opened up their stands. The citizens strolled leisurely along the paths of Ellis. The bakers and butchers started to cook.

"Luke?" I called. He opened his door, and smiled. "Hey, Annabeth. What's up?"

"Just saying good morning. Meet ya at breakfast?" I asked.

"Yeah, okay."

I went back to my chambers. I dressed into my normal chiton, brooches, belt, and wrist cuffs. I also put my hair into a high ponytail. For some reason, that engagement ring Luke gave me made me feel...watched.

I decided to put it down. I took it off, and set it down onto my desk.

Immediately, shock washed over me. Why did I marry Luke? What the actual hell was I doing as Annabeth Castellan?! It was like I was in a trance when he proposed!

I ran down two flights of stairs, and got to the dining hall.

I pulled up a chair, and a servant came to me.

"Why, an honour, Princess Castellan." He bowed.

I flinched. I hated that name, Annabeth Castellan.

"Uh...yeah...just...breakfast, please," I stuttered.

After I finished breakfast, I decided to go for a walk.

Funny, I hadn't seen Luke this morning. Nor had I seen that redhead.

As I was walking, I heard giggling.

It was coming from behind the palace. I followed.

More laughter.

I turned the corner, to see...Luke kissing Rachel?!

"Luke?!" I asked, confused.

He pulled away, surprised, and stammered, "Annabeth-this-isn't-what-it-looks-like-"

"Oh," I growled. "It is, very. How could you? I thought you loved me! I actually did..."

Why was I feeling so...angry?

"Annabeth...I love you. I always have-"
