Chapter 13

"You do realize if you hadn't eaten your children, things probably would have been different." I scratched my head at the long story.

"Be that as it may. I did what I did. I cannot change it." He stretched before finally standing.

"Honestly tho, if you had raised your children with love and compassion they wouldn't have wanted to overthrow you and even if they did, you probably wouldn't have been stuck here by yourself for so long." I stood up next to him.

"That's probably true but I cannot change what I did. It's in the past. It's literal ancient history. I was scared I'd be overthrown just as I had done to my father." He started walking and I walked along with him.

"If you showered your children with enough love then you wouldn't have worry though."

"You'd think that but you'd be surprised how many parents were killed by their children." Death chimed in making us stop walking and turn to him.

"That's not fair. Humanity was cursed. If they weren't then I'm sure no one would've done anything that bad."

"You're being really niave." Death crossed his arms.

"No I'm not. Since I've broken the curse there has been no homicide, hardly any crimes, and not to mention Aphrodite even said there's been more love then she's ever been able to record before."

"There still had been homicide. Specifically by vampires. Still, just because you relieved the curse on humanity doesn't mean the world isn't cured from evil."

"Excuse me but if a certain someone hadn't created the evil in the first place we wouldn't have to worry about it. When I get back to my life and I inevitably join the council I will turn it all around. The council already agreed to start leading with a kind and gentle hand because of the mercy I showed on Braxton. When I have the chance, I can and will cure the world of actual evil." I crossed my arms feeling irritated at his ignorance.

"Can you actually deliver such a large promise?" Kronos stood next to Death intrigued.

"I can promise, if I had the help of the gods. It doesn't help that specific gods of war want exactly that. What I think would work is anyone who has conflict be given the chance to fight for their belief in like a tournament type deal. Specifically anyone who believes in war. There's always the deal of someone wanting power. Gods are no exception."

"Can you elaborate on that?" Zeus dropped his hand on my shoulder making me jump.

"Dear god! Don't do that!"

"I'm right here. You were busy ranting about making a perfect world so you didn't hear me come in. You wanted to speak with me?" He looked to Kronos who had an amused smirk on his face.

"I want Elea to rule with me in Elysium." His smirk grew wide.

"What?!" Death Zeus and I harmonized in shock.

---Adams POV---

Only two more days till her birthday. We're already in Italy just waiting it out at this point. Call it excitement or anxiety, whatever it was it was large and growing.

"Adam, relax. The council still has no idea about Renae or Jarrod. The twins are safe and your bride shall be returning shortly. Just take this time to lay back and relax before you have to go back to dealing with screaming pooping mini versions of yourself." Eros mocked me.

"I'm just anxious. Jarrods locked up at the school till we bring Renae back. Rosia has my children hidden till we know Jarrod's safe to be around. Braxton and Jefferson are moving in together and Tyler even found a girlfriend. Renaes gonna be upset that she missed so much." I scratched my head as I walked away from the window.
