I've been always dreaming of having a great and happy family, specially a loving couple that will love my flaws.
Well, most of the girls really dreaming it. Because why not? It's Ideal.
But... It never happens. It's so perfect that it could never exist.
"Lady Persephone," someone called my name. I turned around and looked at the one of our servant.
"Yes?" I asked.
"The King is calling you." My soft smile vanished and turned into nothing with my eyes asking.
"Why?"
"I don't know, your Highness but he says it's an important matter," he said politely.
It took me a second before responding with nod.
"I'll leave now." As he bowed ninety degree.
This is the first time that my father called me for an important matter. He usually called for Athena's presence when it comes to important things.
I rushed myself to go at my father's thrown as soon as possible.
I'm a little bit excited yet nervous. I think there's something wrong and I sense it.
When I reached the front door of father Zeus thrown, it automatically opened, probably because of magic.
I roamed my eyes around the thrown, my gaze landed to Athena beside in father Zeus. I slowly walked towards them bit literally frozed when my gaze landed on the guy who's standing near me and the door.
I blinked twice as I familliarizing him and my eyes went wide after knowing him.
I immediately avoided my gaze towards him when he looked at me.
Damn! Did I really stared the Underworld's King?!
I nervously continued walking but the Underworld king went to my side and begun walking.
I can't help but to stared at his face, wondering, how could this guy being an underworld king while his face is so angelic?
I got back to my senses when his lips rosed up and looked at me together with his wink.
I shyly looked away but once again steal a glance him and then to father Zeus when we reached his thrown.
"Father," I greeted and bowed. "Why did you called me, Your highness?" I curiously asked.
There's a second of silence like father wont answer me so Athena do the thing.
"He wants you to be tie with the guy beside you," She smugly said.
My brows suddenly went in line and was about to object but Father Zeus voice stopped me.
"You're nothing to do with it. Just marry him and done. If you don't want that, better to fixed all your things and leave my world." Father's motonous voice filled the room.
My heart started to beat faster as I never expect. My knees are now shaking that might me fall on the ground.
"But w-what's the reason?" As my tears filled in my eyes. I never expect this one.
Father Zeus sighed. "It's for ending the Underworld and Olympus conflict." He suddenly looked at Athena with his furrowed looked.
"Your sister, Athena, Didn't want to be tied up with him in the future and I agree with that, Because it will bring them into chaos." He said, sighing.
"Father! Parang sinasabi mo naman kay Persephone na masama akong tao!" She said, pissed off.
"Well, that's true," I said lowly but automatically closed my mouth as she glared at me.
"You shut up, english spokening!" I sighed and bowed my head, pouted.
As I raise my head I heavily sighed again while looking at father before turning to the Underworld king.
"Why don't guys, shake hands and then boom, no more conflict, no more war, no more marriage, what do you think?" I blinked twice and smiled widely with a clapped as if I'm proud of what I said.
They all sighed that made me frowned. Is it worst?
"No way," Underworld king said. I suddenly frozed when I heard his voice, Very manly.
"I'd rather to deal with marrying you than shaking hands with the olympus king," He said flatly as he take his hand in his pocket.
"You know, bagay kayong dalawa. Parehas spokening dollar. Tang'na, Kung ikasal man kayo, parang awa, huwag na huwag kayong pupunta rito dahil mauubos ang dugo ko sa inyo," Athena irritatingly said.
"Your mouth, Lady," Father warned her that made her frowned and make face.
Athena may be father's favorite daughter but she's so stubborn and unpredictable, she didn't even know her limit. She's our father pain in the a*s.
"Can you give me a couple of days to think about it?" I politely asked.
"Yes." I smiled when father said.
But it vanished when underworld king spoke, "No, A couple of hour is more than enough to think about it, Sweetie," he said.
"Sweetie? yuck, eww!" Athena acted like she's vomitting that made me bit my lower lip while looking at her, She looked crazy in that posture.
I turned my gaze to the underworld king and slightly nodded before giving him a small yet a sad smile.
"Thanks,"
Even if he's handsome and have a manly voice, he's still the underworld king that feared a lot.
Behind his angelic face he's a guy who's very cruel and ruthless.
That made me want not to be tied up with him. I can't marry a man like him.
He slowly went in mine and whispered, "I heared your thoughts."
"Darling, I'm not that bad, trust me."
