Sneak peek of chapter 7 since it's gonna be VERY emotionally charged >:)
The Sun God sighed, not wanting to bring up the topic yet, but knowing he couldn't avoid it any longer. "Do you remember that prophecy I told you about?"
"The one involving you?"
"That one, yes." Apollo took a moment to phrase his next words. "Well...we found the deity it involves. A Storm Goddess."
"But you aren't pleased with it." Hyacinthus observed. He gave a soft sigh of his own, a comfort tucked in his purple eyes. "You don't want to fall in love with her yet. You think you would be dishonoring me by doing so."
Apollo stayed quiet. The prince could read him like ink on parchment.
"It's fate," he finally spoke, voice as soft as the lightest breeze, "a fate I don't want."
