Aphrodite

I can't believe she refused me.
I was so close Zeus, sooo close. I don't know how your able to get all these women to sleep with you.

Zeus laughed making me feel a bit irritated as I sent him a glare before he spoke.

You can have anybody you want Aphrodite, after all your a goddess who has 4 wives already, what makes you think you need more?

It's not about the number of wives Zeus, after all you and Poseidon have six wives. But there's just something about Heaven that makes me want to make her mine.

I can't explain it.
All I know is that I have to have her.

What do you feel when your near her?

Well, when I first saw her as I was exploring the mortal world I knew that she had to be mine as soon as our eyes connected for the first time.
I felt happy. I have never felt as happy as I did when our eyes connected.

I also felt kinda fuzzy on the inside.

I believe you might have just found your mate.

Mate?

Yes you can date, marry have sex with whomever you want but there will always be the other half to your heart.
Without her you will die.

We gods are much like wolves in this matter, once we find our other half's we have to be near them and if our other half's does not want to be with us then we will avoid everyone and everything. We won't eat we won't sleep, we will just wither away into nothing.

At least that's what I have been told by Mother Nature herself, but she's not the goddess of love.

Tell me Aphrodite, has someone ever died of a broken heart?

A lot of people have Zeus, I just never thought it would happen to one of us.

Well if I am right about this then she is your other half, if I'm wrong though you will be just fine. But like i said before, none of us have ever found our other half besides Poseidon and even then as he spent time in the mortal world with his lover he was becoming human and had to flee back here to Olympus.

Of course being a human isn't a bad thing but for a god to loose his or hers powers.

It's devastating.

Yes.
If you want Heaven to be your lover you can bring her here to Olympus, but that's only if she accepts you.

I understand.

Nothing will get in my way, I will bond with Heaven.

Even if I have to put a spell on her to do so.

That's another thing, I forbid you to use your power on Heaven.

But!

But nothing, it's my rule and you will obey me.

Gritting my teeth in anger I nodded my head before glaring down onto earth.

I will make Heaven mine.
