QUICK REMINDER THIS CONTAINS A SPOILER FROM THE TRIALS OF APOLLO: TYRANTS TOMB! THIS IS BY ALL MEANS ARE ONLY A FANFIC THE ORIGINAL CHARACTERS ARE ALL OWNED BY OUR BADASS RICK RIORDAN

                                APOLLO

          " Your lover is bound to be one of the cruelest emperors in Rome if you don't stop him now " my father, Zeus spoke to me one day, summoning me in the center of Olympus' great hall. "B-but! What do you want me to do ?! I love him, father! " I, Apollo for once tried to defend my fated evil lover from the wrath of my horrid dad. " Then it's up to you to avoid him from destroying Rome, completely " with a single snap, I was back in Pompeii laying on a huge bed of my lover's chamber with a cold glass of red wine in hand. 

" You're okay? " a gentle warm voice spoke to me as I turned to see my lover, Lucius Commodus with his golden hair slicked back and his pure white toga was disoriented, revealing his bare chest and perfectly sculptured abs; laying next to me.

        Thank the gods for his golden belt that was tied around his waist to avoid revealing anything more than necessary. 

" Yeah ... it's just .. you know, my dad being Zeus and all " I sighed heavily as I placed my glass of wine by the bedside, my mind was still thinking about the fate that will fall onto him and it sent me quivering in fear. " It's okay, I understand... if there's anything that's bothering you, just tell me, okay? It hurts me every time I see my godly beloved lover's troubled face " In an instant , Lucius wrapped his huge arms around me and gave me a handful of butterfly kisses . 

Seeing how soft and gentle he was towards me makes me wonder wether the same person would really be the one to become one of the cruelest emperor of Rome.

        I wondered what would happen if I just assassinate him in his sleep? Would Rome truly be saved ? Being the god of prophecy, I managed to get a glimpse of the foreseen future , if I did managed to murder him , a few millennia would be peaceful , of course but then I saw huge wars brewing up with catapults  and greek fires were being used as weapons of destruction and in the front line was none other than Lucius himself, alongside Caligula ( also an evil emperor of Rome that had supposedly died a few hundred years before my Lucius was born ) .

 I wasn't going to risk on assassinating a soon to be cruelest emperor of Rome and only to have him coming back from the dead and cause a total extinction of human beings . I turned my back to face him only to caught him staring lovingly towards me. 

We were so close to each other, feeling only his warmth would be an understatement.

        " Lucius... " I managed under my breath as he kept his jewel blue eyes fixated on me . " Yes ? " He casually replied as he softly pulled me closer by the waist , intertwining his legs around mine . " If I told you that you would soon become one of the cruelest emperor of Rome and the only way to stop you is to kill you .... would you believe me ? " I asked softly , as I lowered my gaze from him , afraid of keeping anymore eye contact . In an instance he placed his forehead against mine and let out a soft smile . 

" Is this what's been troubling you ? " He spoke softly , caressing my cheeks with his huge , rough hands due to the endless training he had been through to gain his position as the emperor .. and yet it was also very warm to me , the sun god . 

I could only reply with a single nod, my eyes were brimming with tears as I was afraid of losing someone whom I love so dearly.

" If I were to be killed or even assassinated ... I would most likely prefer for it to be you ... I guess it would've been a bummer that I could no longer be the emperor .. but if it's the only way .. I'm willing for you " Lucius calmly spoke as if I had told him to go on a nice long vacation instead of a death trial . 

" B-but .. I promise you .. we will meet again .. but I can't guarantee that you would still love me .. or not .. and I would probably wouldn't be as attractive as I am right now " little by little I was already breaking down into tears as Lucius pulled me in closer , casually patting my head gently and wiping off my tears to calm me down . 

" Apollo .. I'm not attracted to your looks .. if I did , there's dozen other girls out there who was much beautiful than you .. no offense.. you are beautiful enough for me .. but I love you for your outgoing personality , your liveliness that brightens up my day and your annoyingly adorable smile .. may it be another millennia .. I would still be in love with you "

With a calming voice , Lucius proceed to cuddle me tight as I fell into a deep slumber with his warmth around me .

 I saw the images in my dream , where Lucius and I would be happy together , casually having our picnic by the castle's garden while feeding each other with strawberries , but the images didn't last long , as the world seems to crumble and I fell into darkness . 

I landed on my butt on a very familiar golden marbled floor , I know the place very well .. it is nonetheless the Olympus great hall .. sitting on his throne was Zeus himself , looking down at me saying ' this is your chance ... finish him ' . " B-BUT FATHER PLEASE ! I LOVE HIM " I rebelled, only to be snapped back to reality . 

 I noticed how the moon was shining so brightly on that night , at that time I noticed an Imperial Gold dagger on the bedside table instead of my glass of wine with a lightning symbol on it's sheath .. it would obviously belonged to my selfish father, Zeus .

I refused to do it , I couldn't bear with the thought to spill the blood of my one and only lover ... I can't lose him .. I don't want to lose him .. the moment I resisted , my muscles felt like it had been burnt over a huge greek fire .. pain shot up my veins as my own hands seems to have the mind of it's own and it swiftly grabbed onto the sheathed dagger . 

Instantly , the moment my skin touched the dagger .. the pain started to numb , my hand took a tight grasp onto the dagger as I tried to resist it with all my might . Suddenly , my skin started to smoke as burnt marks started to show up in ancient greek words ... again , from my father . ' For the sake of Rome , you have to murder the emperor ' it wrote .

 Being the god of medicine and plague , such burnt mark would mean nothing , but this time it actually felt like the mark won't heal as the usual burnt marks do . 

I shakily sat ontop of Lucius' abdomen , he seemed to be at peace .. completely unbothered nor alarmed by my attempted assassination . I raised the dagger high to make a full force stab into his heart but I was forced to stop midway by my suddenly blurring vision .
