Ruthless

Goddess in a demon disguise

Rhea's POV

After the storm cleared, the skies once again were bright blue with full white clouds roaming freely. The sun freshly illuminating my grounds. Today there was a polo match held in my palace. James was on my team per usual as the other council members believed they stood a chance against my brother and I.

I rode my black stallion, all the onlookers applauding with cups filled with golden bourbon.

"Well you did always loved that horse more than your siblings." He spoke beside me looking handsome in his polo wear. All black except our white tight pants.

"And may you never forget it." He only smirked before riding away on the horse of his choosing.

"Well you look splendid Rhea dear." Said the older man from the opposite team, a very old demon in my council, his words always kind which makes him a decrepitude and an easy target, but he doesn't need to know that.

"How nice of you Di'Marco, but that still will not move me to be nice enough to let you win." He chuckled, his mustache covering his lips.

"Well who has heard of you ever being nice?  It surely makes the game more interesting young queen." I smirked at his son's words, he stood next to his father with his golden gear, white stallion and golden hair.

"Let us begin the spectacle." I voiced. Just like that the game begun and my horse was craving the energy of the crowd. We moved almost effortlessly around my grounds. People applauding my brother and I each time we made more points. It was almost embarrassing for the other two playing. From afar my eyes focused on the blonde servant with shaky hands serving my guests. Her wrist have turned a dark shade of purple. I clenched my jaw, deciding to focus on the game that was coming to an end.

Once it did on James and I's favor a male servant quickly came to help me get down from my horse, I shook my head and pointed to the blonde across the field, her eyes were on me intently. Understanding my message the young male quickly went to get the blonde girl.

Without staring directly at me she helped me get down from my horse, her scent drives me crazy.

I stood next to her ear, whispering my next words.

"Where is my sister?" Her jaw visibly clenched making a smirk to appear on my lips.

"She is up in her chamber ma'am." I moved her hair to the side.

"Then go get her, tell her it's an order." She slightly gave me a head nod, before quickly walking away to retrieve my sister.

All my onlookers were now around me congratulating me on my game. I could only hope that they will leave soon. I hated to have these crows in my palace. My sister soon appeared with her perfect attire, dressed only to impress. She stood by my side as they made conversation about her commanding style. Her nation was doing well at least even though she spent more time in mine than hers. Perhaps after the other nights event she will crawl back to Paris.

The formal ball was only a few months ahead where only the most important people of all nations attend. Always held in my palace, it is because of that that my siblings have been coming and going, not to mention the little problems I seem to be having in Europe. A matter that needs my siblings, soon enough they will both have to leave to deal with such an ignorant parade. Humans can be so stubborn. I should know, I was once one.

I excused myself to take a shower and dress properly to attend my guest. I'm sure Keana is a great host, let her have the headache of dealing with these leeches.

"Matilda, let my young maiden assist me with my bath, you know where to find her." The older woman complied. I headed to my room taking off the black and golden helmet off my head, I loosen my braid letting my hair fall in waves over my shoulders. The itch on the back of my shoulders had once again appeared, irritating my nerves. Slowly I took off my black polo shirt, letting it fall to the ground. I warmed the water of the indoor pool, releasing a few roses into it. I lit up some foreign sweet scents giving the huge space a sense of tranquility. When everything was prepared I took off the rest of the clothes, letting it fall to the ground as I slowly entered the exquisite water. I swam side to side wetting my long hair and allowing the feel of it to relax me.
