chapter 20
Circe pov
As the realm settled into the new order, it was time to have the trial for Zeus and his allies.
We all knew that Zeus was guilty we just needed to decide what he punishment would be
My dad, posideion, me, my grandmother, persphone, Athena, and ben all sat down and discussed what could be done and it was decided that we would strip zeus, hera, Artemis, Aries and many other gods of their powers and banish them with Kronos in Tartarus
What about there domains? I asked
Aries domains of being the god of war and courage will go to his daughter Clarisse La Rue, because Artemis swore to be an eternal maiden she had no children so I will choose who will get her domains my grandmother said
And who would that be I asked
Not sure yet. When I decided you all will be told immediately grandmother said as we nodded
What about hera? Ben asked
Her domains will go to Mavis if her parents agree grandmother said looking at Hercules and Meg who shared a look then nodded
What are hera's domains? Ben asked
marriage and of the life of women grandmother said as Ben nodded
I'm sure he had questions but he knew better than question a goddess
And what about Zeus? Dad asked as grandma took a breath
Zeus' domain is the sky, the weather, justice, order, and the rule of law. And I plan on splitting those domains to two people grandmother said
Who? Dad asked
The domain of goddess of sky and weather will go to Uma since she already has an connection to water grandmother said as we nodded
And the other domains? Posideion asked
They will go to Circe. Grandmother said as I looked at her surprised but didn't question it
Well now that is settled let's get this over with Dad said
And that's what we did and Zeus was hella pissed and so was hera and Artemis but hey they brought this on themselves
As the weeks passed I found myself caught in a whirlwind of emotions, both joyous and tumultuous. The days were filled with the responsibilities of establishing the council, while the nights were filled with dreams of a brighter future. However, unexpected twists of fate awaited me, testing the strength of my relationships and my resolve.
One evening, as the sun began its descent and I was currently watching as the sunset enjoying some peace when I heard footsteps and saw Uma approaching, her eyes filled with a mix of vulnerability and determination.
Uma what are you doing here? You should be resting i said
I'm ok circe but there's something I've been wanting to ask you, I have been wanting to ask you this for a long time I was just to scared to ask you since we were living on the isle. Circe your my best friend my first mate and I can't see my life without you in it" Uma began, her voice laced with sincerity.
Uma...what are you saying? I asked
"What I'm saying is I don't want to be your girlfriend anymore. I want to be your wife. Circe will you marry me?" Uma said holding up a ring
I was taken aback, my heart fluttering with surprise. I had grown fond of Uma during our years of living on the isle together, and the fact that she was willing to stand by my side when I challenged Zeus and as we fought side by side had forged a deeper connection then we had before.
As I looked into Uma's eyes, I felt a surge of warmth and affection.
"Uma," I whispered, my voice filled with tenderness, "I would be honored to be your wife, to stand by your side and build a future together."
Our love blossomed amidst the chaos of the isle, bringing a sense of solace and hope. Together, we would face the challenges that awaited, united in our commitment to creating a kingdom where love and acceptance thrived.
While me and uma's love was stronger than ever I had a feeling that the same couldn't be said for my sister Mal
Mal pov
After the battle and after all the meetings that Ben had things started to calm down a bit and as I watched as my friends sought comfort from their girlfriends and boyfriend I realized that maybe I was to quick to break up with Ben and that I still loved him.
Desperate to regain what we once had, I approached Ben at his castle, hoping for reconciliation. But I was met with unexpected words that shattered my heart.
"Mal, I can't deny the feelings that have grown between me and Harry. I no longer love you in the same way." Ben said
My anger flared, my eyes narrowed with hurt and betrayal. The pain of rejection swept through me, mingling with the rage that had fueled me during the battle against Zeus.
How could he move on so quickly I mean we haven't even been broken up for that long and why Harry of all people?! He's just a disgusting pirate who flirts with anyone with a pulse. Wait this can't be right. There's no way in hell Ben would date Harry he must have been spelled or something. I thought to myself as my mind went right to circe
In my fury, I confronted Circe, blaming her for the rift between me and Ben.
Bitch I didn't spell Ben into falling in love with Harry. That happened all by its self. So get the hell up out of my face with that bs circe said but i didn't believe her
This was her way of getting back at me for not coming back for her I just knew it no matter how much she denied it
The once unbreakable twin bond was strained, and my anger threatened to break it completely
Circe pov
I was kinda hurt by the accusations and I struggled to find the right words to help Mal to see that I had nothing to do with Ben and Harry being together but Mal was too angry to listen and stormed away swearing that I would pay for what I did
Just let her calm down and try again later. She won't do anything Mal is all bark no bite. She'll be back Uma said being the voice of reason but after that outburst Mal never was seen again
We didn't know what happened to her but I did know for a fact she was still alive and I hoped one day she would come back so we could talk
As the weeks went by the council took shape, and the realms began to embrace the principles of justice and balance and soon my coronation as the ruler of the underworld was held and the divine realm found stability and hope for a brighter future.
And not only that persphone and my dad got married and dad was able to move back home as a reward for helping defeat Zeus
As I sat in my throne room I reflected on my life and on the intricate tapestry of love and betrayal that had woven itself into my journey. I learned and understood that love could be a powerful force, capable of both healing and hurting. In the face of adversity, it was the choices I made and the bonds I forged that would shape the path ahead.
But did I know that the trials and triumphs I had already faced were only the beginning of an even greater adventure that awaited me and those I held dear.
