"The moment I pointed at the flawless you, You became mine"

Third POV
⚔Inferos⚖

"Athena, are you sure about this?"

The little girl, who was now a woman, six months pregnant nodded. "Yes, father, I want to be excluded from this narrative of the Inferós."

Cronus sighed at his daughter. "What will be your choice of life, mi princesa? As my only child, you are the heiress."

"I wanna be like grandfather, the Mufasa, but in due time. Right now father, I have found the love of my life and I am pregnant with his child."

"Of course, I know that, but is he secure enough?", Cronus asked his daughter, hoping she would change her mind.

Athena frowned at her father. What does he mean by that? "I beg your pardon, father, but what do you mean by your choice of words?"

"Is your man secure enough?"

"What?"

"My princess, you are my only heiress, you are the daughter of the Orients, your life lies in the North and you are the next legacy. Your man," He clarified, a bit scared of his daughter's elope, "Is this man, as you said, secure enough? Can he understand how you might disappear completely without a trace? Can he understand how you suddenly go away for so long? Does he have the guts to face your enemies? Or to protect your family when you are gone?"

Athena's eyes filled with tears. "Father---"

"I've seen how that guy works, I'm gonna lie if I say I like him for you but he's definitely better than other men out there that I want for you.", Cronus sincerely said.

Athena understood her father but she still begs to differ. "He is secure enough, father."

"That's good enough for me, Athena, for now..."

"Take cover!" An explosion was next heard.

The woman with a small baby in her arms held her little moon tight to her chest and ran as far as she can go. She wanted to fight the enemy, but she does not want her baby to be in danger. She was about to exit the scene as fast as she can but she heard a little boy crouching by the small alley of the mall across from her direction.

With all she could, she ran across as fast as she can, not caring if she gers hurt, feeling the heartbeat of her little one. Once she reached the boy, she immediately held him tight.

"Cover your ears, little one...", she told the young boy which he immediately complied.

The mother, with her child, then went inside an empty restroom and locked the door. The woman looked down on the little boy who was shaking but not a single tear was seen on his face. She crouched down to level him and softly caressed his face.

"It's okay to cry...", she softly said, "It's okay, because I'll protect you."

The little boy shook his head. "Appa said that I am not allowed to cry because I'm a big boy already."

The woman shook her head. "Well that's not right. It's okay to cry, even if you are strong.", she then smiled softly at him with reassurance, "I'll protect you... What's your name? You look very familiar."

"Kim Taehyung...", the little boy looked down shyly and played with his fingers, "Geundae, my eomma calls me Sun."

"Sun...", she trailed off, "Sun Taehee⎯"

He looked up at her. "Oh? How do you know⎯?"

"She's your eomma?"

He nodded. "Ne."
