Lone Lovers Ledge

A Lovers Perspective

Pissed in having to listen to another word of my fellow siblings dare one another, I took it upon myself to gather some fun of my own. Seeing as the mortals usually threw the most ludicrous parties I acquainted myself with the host which was of course Dionysus as the man could never resist a party of his own doing especially after he was banned from olympus for recklessness. Who am I to stop him from pushing those fated to be with one another together from a mere ounce of the gods liquor? As I am aphrodite, the goddess of love and s*x. Mortals have no idea how much they take me for granted or my powers like the gods have been doing ever so lately. Not in my own husband will listen to me on a matter as important as love! Wanting to ring my anger out on another, a mortal party is usually the best place to start.

Leaning forward, accompanied by the stank smell of drunk and stupid but willfully in love teenagers, my own lover took a seat beside me as per usual as he would never admit it but ares has always been the jealous type. Darkness accompanied memories as music echoed all around us, leaving no place untouched by its soulful advances that only a god would know the beat of. The beat of immortality sends shivers down any spines who were to despise it. Reminding me of every dance every lover has taken towards her fate of death as none can achieve immortality for nothing. Echoing within my mind were the days as Eros would bring his sweets home for me to judge and decide for whether they were good enough for the prize of a god. No mortal will ever be good enough for me. None have ever beaten ares to my heart. Except tonight.

Glancing up as I felt a gaze upon me, the gaze of a beady eyed mortal with no restraint but then I felt something pull at the strings of my soul as the creature approached. Standing beside me, a mortal, alas different to the rest. Her dark hair falling past thin shoulders as if someone forgot to feed her and despite just meeting whoever starved the dear twiglet will suffer more than they made her. Noticing the rips and dirt within her clothes I assumed the worst but why would anyone wish to harm such a creature is unbeknownst to me. Giving in to my curiosity, I offered a concoction that would ensure her a beauty sleep that she would never forget. Placing her on my lap was as if all my desires were firing up all over again as if I'd been reborn, it was glorious and nothing I had ever felt before. Assumed to be my fate, my hand moved through her hair, fine but wispy as her head fell against my chest, the little angel sleeping, unbeknownst to the dark world she was entering just by being near me.

Whilst ares moved towards me his glass pointing at the child, his words deep but raspy, “new habit sweetheart?” rolling my eyes “not yet just picking my choices” as a sweet smile slipped from my mouth. Humming as gazes flickered, raising an eyebrow as questions were ultimately raised towards her. Sighing as the doors slammed open, a stout sort of man entered who obviously had a short fuse to accompany his height waddled over, scanning the dark premise seemingly looking for someone. Noticing me and then the girl a scowl scattered across his face as storming over he snapped “give her to me!” releasing now that this buffoon was who my sweet was running from was a poor mistake on my part which i should have realised earlier but no matter as now he will experience my full fury. A hand took my shoulder as ares raised glanced at the girl, a gleam residing behind his usual gory filled eyes. Rasping out “she concerns you how?” he scowled “she’s my fiancee you oaf!” leaping forward to touch what's mine was his mistake. Ares grabbed him by the collar as he was thrown against the wall a thud heard as the rib cage broke which was nothing different to how Ares usually dealt with his and my problems.

Only problem remaining was who this darling child was and why she ran away from her fiance but that can be found out very easy as i gestured towards the alleged fiance which i couldn't care less about but i do need to know who she is as to avoid looking like a fool as she awakes which cannot happen in front of your lover.
