Athena lives on facts but when she starts to live on her love for a familiar hero, pain and anguish are never too far away.

Love. Noun, plural = loves. Meaning: To have an intense feeling of deep affection or sexual attraction towards someone. Being the goddess of Wisdom, Athena knew exactly how to define love. But did she know what it was like to feel love? For a long time she was lost, driven mad by the arrogance of men eventually swearing off all enjoyment they could provide. She would not be controlled. For thousands of years she was content until that boy. The first she noticed of him was when the head of her enemy was posted to their throne room. Upon learning the fate of the world rested in that sea spawn's hands she knew she had to observe his progress. Little did she know it would lead to her obsession.
As the days moved on she became fascinated by the green-eyed demigod. There was a reason why she did not approve of her daughter's relationship, she wanted him to herself yet she could not be the cause of her daughter's pain. Damn Aphrodite to the deepest pits of hell - her prized Percabeth tearing all happiness away without care. It became unhealthy - the way she imagined him conquering her when she'd turned down everyone else. Each touch that wretched offspring of hers greedily stole was like a nuclear missile straight to the heart. Jealousy bloomed within until it spread like an untameable jungle. For once she just wanted to be able to submit, let that miracle of a boy be her master. Never though, would she say that out loud. Let the pleasure remain just in her thoughts as she's left to please herself in the lonely nights. The pain will always be present, she has eternity to grieve, but while he still walks and breathes she can pretend the smiles he gives belong to her. His soft moans are directed at her. And the gentle touches were not meant to be given to that blonde demigod but savored by the immortal goddess. Heartache. Noun, plural = heartaches. Meaning: Emotional anguish or grief, typically caused by the absence of someone loved. Athena knew exactly how to define her condition and the cause of it was love. A love that could never be.
