Moon Daughter's Second Chance

Ch. 8

Ch. 8

Ares's Pov:

I felt raged as she talked about a mate, I really didn't know why but I felt jealous and cheated on. There was something wrong with me and I started to think someone had tempered with me which was impossible, what I thought I felt was just an attachment to this child but it felt nothing like just an attachment and it started to irritate me.

" Who are you child of the moon "

She smiled brightly when I asked her as her eyes sparkled, I felt warmth and yearned for more of her smile

" Pandia, a nobody "

I frowned at her words, hearing that from her made me feel responsible for her sadness and wounded soul. For some unknown reasons I could feel her pain, and I felt how broken she was. I wanted nothing more than to just sweep her off her feet and hug her tight without ever letting her go, but i felt conflicted and outraged at the same time as I couldn't get the thought that someone was trying to mess with me out of my mind.

" All brightness? Such a beautiful name to one as beautiful and bright as you "

Even her name was specifically given to her, it was a name from the land of gods not from the mortal world which made me started to get more curious about her.

Everything about her was questionable and not mortal like, and the only way I could explain what I was feeling for her was love. There are was only one goddess whom I knew could make others fall in love even gods, but I still had my doubts as she wouldn't pair a god without his consents. I needed to get to the bottom of this and if it's some kind of sick joke some other god or goddess was playing on me I was going to make sure they regret it, I wasn't one to be messed with at will and yet someone thought to mess around with me. I quickly send back my consciousness without further saying anything to her, I stood up from the sofa and walked out of my Chambers in anger.

" My Lord "

The servants greeted and bow to me as I walked in the hall, I quickly moved out of the way as a sword was swung at me and I turned to glare at one of my best female warriors Daphne. She quickly took out her daggers and threw them at me and I quickly caught every last one of them in seconds

" I don't have time for this now "

I dropped the daggers to the floor and said to her in anger but she just laughed it off

" I'm told my Lord hasn't been himself for awhile now, what could possibly have my Lord in a dire? "

She walked over to me and picked up her daggers from the floor, Daphne turned serious and asked me in a very serious tone

" Did Achilles asked you for advice again? You need not worry, I'm not in a dire situation and I can fully deal with any kind of situations on my own "

I said back to her in a serious tone, I knew she wasn't worried about me she was just antsy for a battle since it had been quite long when we last fought a battle.

" It isn't advisable for you to take action yourself, let me handle it "

I could sense her excitement as she suggested

" No! I have to take care of this myself, let Achilles know I'm heading out "

I ordered and opened a portal and walked through without waiting for her response, I was in a hurry and she was just wasting my time.

The were a few warriors of mine I had a close friendship relationship with and she was one, having them take care of this matter would be the right call but I was so mesmerized by Pandia that I wanted to find out everything myself and not be told. The end of the portal opened in the goddess of the moon's home and I walked out, her guards surrounded me with their weapon pointed at me when they sensed an intruder. They quickly put away their words and bowed when they saw who I was and I smirked.

" Take me to your goddess "

One quickly led the way and I quietly followed behind, I was led into the hall where I saw her stood by the window and was admiring the view of the moon which lit up the dark sky and sent brightness to the mortal world

" Brightness? All brightness just like the moon " I smirked as I thought.

" I've heard tales of your beauty, you're as beautiful as the moon which you have control over "

She gracefully turned back to me with a bright smile on her face, but underneath gracefulness I sensed her nervousness which made me smirked more. Everything that was happening to me was all her doing and I was going get my answers out of her before I leave,

" You flatter me a lot Ares, how can my beauty measure up to that of the moon? "

She walked over to me and urged me to take a seat with her hands and I did, things started to become clear to me as I thought over about everything but one thing that was still left in the dark was I couldn't understand why she'd do that for Pandia. Why she'd pair one of her children with a god, Selene wasn't the goddess of love and she couldn't bring others together like the goddess of love does but she was able to pair her children down in the mortal with bonds she creates for them. But to pair one with a god she needed a connection between the god and her child, she was able to get the connection between Pandia and I when Pandia prayed to me and sought me out.

But to think she'd pair a mortal with a god was something I just couldn't bring myself accept,

" What brings the god of war to my humble residence "

I glared angrily at her when she tried to play dumb with me

" I'm not a patient god and I believe the goddess of moon knows that too, I wish you not make an enemy out of me "

I let out the flow of anger I was holding inside of me and she flinched when she sensed it intensity, we were both gods with great powers but she was no much for me when it comes to battles and wars and i believed she'd very much want to avoid making an enemy out of me
