Chapter 37

Mine.

Calypso POV

There I was, standing in the center of a godly council whilst agreeing to the rules of a relationship that Aphrodite provided me. They seemed very basic for a relationship. Loyalty, dates, intimacy, letting Leo do what he wants, and never leaving his side.

" Now then, we've covered the basics and now we have to clear up some things. " Aphrodite threw her clipboard and pen in midair and they poofed away.

She had a mischievous glint in her eyes.

" Calypso, I hope you know that you're not the only one with feelings towards Leo Valdez. " Aphrodite stood and came face to face with me.

" I'm not? Could you tell me who else does, so that I may...inform them of my relationship?" For some reason, jealousy arose in my heart.

" Well, there's Reyna, Khione, and I believe there's a girl in some other state...what was her name..." Aphrodite tapped her temple with her index finger. She suddenly snapped her fingers " Ah yes! Her name is Echo. "

Wonderful. Not only did I have to compete with Reyna for Leo, but now there were two other girls! Since when did an ice witch who's trying to kill Leo like him? As for this echo girl...she sounds familiar to me, though I can't imagine why.

" I'm sure you're aware that Reyna is in no way over Leo and she will keep attempting to win him over. "

I sighed. " Yes, I am fully aware. "

" As for Khione, you've no need to worry about her. Leo hates her. "

Good. That's one off the list.

" Echo...may be a problem. Although she hasn't seen Leo since his big quest she does indeed, love him. "

Echo! That's right. She was the one who was cursed by Hera...poor thing. I need to talk to Leo about this later.

" These girls will no doubt make your love life very interesting...unless..."

Aphrodite's eyes became blank.

" Unless? " I asked.

She came back to reality. " Unless you're willing to share Valdez. "

Share?! No! Absolutely not! Leo is mine! I laughed nervously " No... I don't think I am willing to do that. "

" Are you sure? It's the easiest way out of many hardships to come. " She explained.

"While that may be true Aphrodite, I've no intention of having to compete for, let alone share, Leo's heart. "

" Oh, you're no fun at all. I'm done here. Zeus, you can ask what you wish now. " She returned to her marble throne and pulled a nail file from thin air.

Despite her opinion, sharing Leo does not sound fun to me. I'm the only that will kiss Leo. Among other things...but that will come later. When we're ready I suppose.

" Calypso. " A thunderous voice called for my attention.

" Yes, Lord Zeus? " I bowed my head in respect to the god.

" I've only a few conditions to discuss with you. " He leaned forward in his chair and analyzed me with his blue eyes.

I simply nodded my head toward the god as to show no disrespect. I didn't want a repeat of last time.

" Your island will remain. It will stay invisible to everyone but Demigods and gods. You are never to return there. Even if it's only to water your plants. " His voice was stern and very intimidating.

" You don't have to tell me twice. Considering I have Leo now, that's the last thing I would do. I'm never going back again. " Who would want to? Too much pain and sorrow for me to return there.

"Good. There's that and one final thing before I bring Leo back in to finalize things with the both of you."

He still wants to talk to us?! Can't I just go to sleep? Preferably with Leo's arms wrapped around me, but that's not important right now.

" If you should do anything to betray or wound that boy in a way of which he cannot recover, I will not hesitate to send you back to Ogygia. Where you will spend an eternity alone. No curse, no love, nothing. Just you and the island. If that should happen I will make sure that even Valdez cannot rescue you. "

What a heart shattering thought...to be sent back to that hell. It's not like that would happen, I could never hurt Leo!

" Do I make myself clear, Calypso? "

" Transparently. I would never betray Leo, Lord Zeus. "

" Good. Now please, bring him in. It's time we have the final discussion. "

Zeus gestured to the door and I saw Leo with his back turned. I walked over to him and tapped his right shoulder He turned and smiled at me.

" Hey! We all done here? " He began to mess with my hair.

" Not quite, Zeus wants to speak to both of us about something. " Leo's hand stopped.

" Both of us? Must be pretty serious. "

" I'm sure it is, but we have each other so we'll be fine. " I placed my hand on his and we made our way to the center of the council room.

" Now for the best part! " Aphrodite's voice cracked and she squealed.
