Jacqueline wasn’t sure if she should say anything else or let her brother be. If that strange girl was his girlfriend, then where did that leave Corrine? She looked down at the sleeping wolf, then covered her with the blanket. “Sleep well little brother. I’ll talk to you in the morning.”
“Yeah, yeah.” He yawned, while walking away. Part of him wanted to check on Andi once again but decided against it.
Jacqueline sat next to the table. Corrine hadn’t stirred yet. She waited to see when Corrine would take a breath. It felt like an eternity had taken place before she seen the rise and fall of her chest. Jacqueline breathed out in relief. “I can’t imagine how hurt you feel to know that the one you believe to be fated to has someone else. Even if Jace isn’t your mate, the perfect one will come and steal your breath away.”
Corrine opened her eyes then. She was still in her wolf form but the sorrow was c
“Then if I scared you, you should make me angry.”He adjusted himself so that he was sitting on the sofa properly. “Or you can work on your temper.”“Do you know anything about me? History was correct about my personality.”“Yes, you were the unyielding one. The one that ends the lives of man. I know this. Why are you bringing this up?”“Because even if we try to act as if we are the same, we are far from it. I’m a deity. You are something I can’t place just yet.”Hearing her say that made him stiffen. He hadn’t expected her to have an inkling about him at all. He laughed nervously. “You’re funny. I’m just a normal person.”“Yeah, you see I watched movies during my time here before the rest came to join us. Only those that aren’t what they truly are say they are normal people.”“That’s just movie magic.&r
In the beginning, the Gods ruled the world up high on Mount Olympus. They were the Greek gods that everyone knew, loved, and feared. Zeus was the all-powerful king of the Gods, the one that tamed, ended, the titans including his father. He was the most loved and feared. When he was angry, he would throw lightning bolt just to calm himself down. Hera, his queen, was always by his side. Her beauty was unrivaled. She was by far the calmer of the two but had a dislike of the mortals due to Zeus’ philandering ways. The two of them often looked down on the mortals. Each having their own thoughts about how they lived. Zeus with amusement and Hera with contempt.It was a normal day in the life of the gods. They all gathered together for a celebration. It wasn’t a special occasion. Zeus just wanted to gather all his immortal children together along with his brothers. Poseidon being the youngest of the three was the first one to show up on Olympu
FIRST DAY OF SCHOOLIt was a few weeks before school was about to start. The Fates had settled into their apartment of campus well they were going by new names for their time in the mortal realm. Cleo, Lakeisha, and Andromeda Moiria. Their apartment was fashioned in a typical college dwelling but they each had their own room. Cleo was the youngest, bright and bubbly, her room had a hint of a princess feel to it, almost a child like quality. Lakeisha being the middle sister, slightly mature and kind, her room was sophisticated with a girly feel. Andr
The young man raised his hands in the air then looked at Andi. “If she had a problem with it she would’ve said so, right Cheré?”Her mouth had gone dry, he made her speechless. Not only was her heart steadily picking up speed but her mouth failed to listen to her brain until she felt a shove in her back. “Ah. Yes. You’re right. I should thank you for keeping me from falling.”Cleo and Lakeshia chimed in at the same time. “yes, she would like to thank you by asking you out on a date!”
Andi got to her first class seconds before the professor closed the door. She looked behind her to see two other students right behind her be locked out. She knew what type of professor he was. Cleo waved her over to an empty seat. Andi walked past Jupiter and Juno sitting near there front of the class. He tried to reach out to grab her and have her sit near him. Before he could she moved her hand away taking her seat next to her sister. She could feel the electricity crackling around them. She looked at her sisters wondering why he was so adamant about trying to control them, her in particular.The professor stood in front of the class and begin to give his semester speech. What he expected of his students and what he would not
Andi had gone down to Bourbon Street. It looked less lively in the daytime than the bustling rapture at night. It felt like a different world. She walked around for a time before going into a daiquiri shop. She never was one to partake in alcohol even when all the gods would gather for their needs of celebration. The most amazing ale could rival the strongest spirit, vodka. The different flavors lined the counters in slushie machines. She knew her sisters would love to come to a place like this.She stood off to the side as she weighed her options. The appeal of a virgin drink was strong, increasingly strong, and predictable. Today, of all days she wanted to shed the mean goth girl image she undoubtedly sustained the year prior coming to get the ball rollin
Jace opened the door for her. His lips pressed around the straw of his drink. He watched how her expressions changed only slightly. It was barely noticeable but he caught on to it. He allowed her to walk out in front of him. Then ended up allowing another couple to go in. He was about to let go when a few more people showed up to go in the shop. He sighed softly as he watched Andi get further away from him. Andi had gotten just a few feet away from him when she noticed she didn’t feel his presence. When she looked back she seen he was still holding the door open. It made her smile seeing that there were chivalrous men in this time. Most gods in the olden days did as they pleased. They took the goddesses as they saw fit and the mortals by force. Think
Corrine didn’t like the way he hung up on her. He never once did that to her before. It made her angry. Her inner she-wolf snarled in agreement with her discontent at his actions. His wolf belonged to her and only her, no one else. There was more she needed to say. The fact that this Andi Moiria just popped up out of no where was cause for concern. She may love him with all her heart but he is her best friend first and foremost. No random or ridiculously bitchy woman could take that away from her. She knew she had to continue digging into her and her weird sisters. None of them looked alike except around the eyes. They all had the same glowing eyes.Corrine decided that very instant she heard whispers of Jace being asked out by the “queen of mean" she would make sure that anyone that would keep her from her destiny would be regretful that they did. Even though looking into those Moiria girls wouldn’t be enough she planned to stick to Jace like Loctite. Their bond was forged fr
