Chapter 10, the talk with Zeus
Petsa ng paglalathala:
2020-11-06 00:49:09When Antonio went to check on Christine, she was fast asleep.
“Thought bubble, aww she’s so peaceful I’d hate to wake her up. I know the perfect way to wake her up.” He goes up to her and kisses her cheek and puts a red rose on her nightstand.
“Well hi to you to Antonio.”
“You feel better after what you’ve been through?”
“Yeah, I feel a bit better after what Hades did…evil Hades…”
“We know that, but glad you’re feeling better oh Zeus wants to talk to you not sure why, but I can keep you company.”
“Oh, ok well we don’t want to keep Zeus waiting longer than he has to…come on let's go.” Since Antonio didn’t know if Christine was stable enough to walk on her own, so he carried her which she didn’t mind at all. Antonio was around 6ft so she was small compared to him…small enough to be carried so she could rest her head on his chest while on the way there she fell asleep while in his arms…eventually, he had to wake her up for their talk with Zeus.
“Christine…wake up we’re here I hate to wake you up, but I have to.” Antonio tried to wake her up as gently as he could.
“Groan, if I must.” Christine was starting to wake up just in time since they were right in front of Zeus' house.
“Yes, you must Christine come on Zeus is waiting for us.”
“Alright, I’m awake wonder what Zeus wants to tell us.” Christine was curious as to what Zeus wanted. She had never seen him before, besides in books and some movies. Both of which she thought couldn't be really true to what he looked like.
“I’m not sure, but we’ll find out.” Both were a little nervous about talking to Zeus, but they tried to remain calm about it.
“Ah, Antonio and Christine just the two I wanted to see. Never mind Hermes you don’t have to go looking for them…” Zeus called to Hermes who was about to go looking for them, but luckily they got to Zeus before Hermes' service was needed.
“It’s nice to see you, Zeus,” said Christine with a small smile.
“Ah glad you’re feeling better Christine looks like you gained some rose back to you which is always good.” Zeus smiled as well trying to make her comfortable and at ease around him. He may be in charge but he doesn't have to be this scary being that everyone has to be afraid of.
“Thank you, Zeus, and yes I am feeling better.”
“Well, that’s only part of why I called you here. To see if Christine is alright to tell you both how happy and proud all of us are for what you did at Hade’s lair and we all think that you deserve to stay here as full gods.” Both were overwhelmed with joy. Christine couldn’t help herself but cry. Antonio just hugged her as tightly as he could with joy to comfort her.
“Thank you so much, Zeus! We won’t let you or the others down.” Christine cried tears of joy. She was hoping to get her full power someday but didn't think that it would actually happen!
“I know you two won’t and to make it official I’ll finally get to give you your full power…to the both of you.” Zeus smiled at them proudly. Both were excited to get their full powers but curious about what they would be.
“Course ladies first so Christine if you would come with me to get your power.”
“Of course, Zeus I’ve waited so long for us to get our powers.” She stepped forward a little nervous but was excited about it too.
“You don’t have to wait any longer Christine since I’ll give you your power but warning you gods to accept their power differently than others.”
“Alright, Zeus now I’m ready to accept my power.” As Zeus was giving her power, she felt a little queasy, but she was alright. “Nicely handled Christine now your turn Antonio if you please come forward.”
“Yes, Zeus do what you need to do.” Like Christine, he too felt queasy, but no harm went to him.
“Nicely handled Antonio now the deed is done, but there's more news that I would like to tell you, Antonio. Your parents did not tell you this news since I told them that I would tell you. You have a brother named Kostos.”
“A brother?? Wish that news could've been said sooner, when can I see him, and sir how would we know what our powers will be like?”
“Patience young god it will take time.”

To Olympus Epilogue
Eight years went by and Kostos hasn’t bothered them again. Both figured he had learned his lesson about messing with them both thought it was wise of him not to come back since they still remember that fight Christine did with him. Alex will never forget it since it’s still the only time he had seen her like that…Apollo, Aphrodite, Bernardo and Anita still keep a close eye on them especially since Christine is pregnant…the poor and confused child not going to know what it is? Is it a wolf or is it a god/goddess? Both think it’s going to be a girl and already picked the name of Rose Margarita Rodríguez, and no guesses yet for a boy. Both sets grandparents approve of the name…and both parents have full control of their powers…Sapphire and Grace have gotten the title of godmothers. Will and Riff got the title of godfathers. All seems well for now, but we’ll wait and see until t

Later on in the day when Christine was changing into her new white and turquoise spaghetti strapped, with beachy flowers boho style tea length dress Alex had bought her to wear for dinner when she heard something in the living room…the window was open. Puzzled and thought Alex was messing with her again so she doesn’t think much of it but checked it out. She gets to the living room window and sees no one there so she shrugged her shoulders and didn’t think of it. On the way to her room, she sees something in the window in the corner of her eye. For a moment she thought it was Alex, but when she looked in the mirror it wasn’t him…“Who are you and what are you doing here!? I’m on my honeymoon with my
To Olympus Chapter 27, the honeymoon
“Are we going to London? Is that where we're going?” Christine kept guessing places they were going, but she had no clue.“Just a stop…trust me its long plane rides, but you’ll like it.” Alex liked watching her squirm with curiosity.“Plane rides? How many planes are we taking on this trip?” Christine was curious about how many planes they would be taking.“It’ll be four stops I know it sounds long, but trust me you’ll like the e
To Olympus Chapter 26, the wedding
Finally, after waiting 5 months after the murder it was Valentine’s Day…finally, Aphrodite told Christine some more details about it.“Well, today’s the day you ready sweetie?” Aphrodite smiled at her as she was getting her hair ready.“I’m nervous but I’m ready…so what are you going to tell me about my wedding?” Christine was so curious about it. Aphrodite, Anita, and Amelia kept almost everything a secret. There were a couple of things that they needed Alex and Christine's opinion on, but other than that it was all them.
To Olympus Chapter 25, the investigation
Riff, Alex, and Christine went to the crime scene and for all of them, it was painful to see. Each in their wolf form they had a better chance of finding evidence and clues with their keen senses. Christine was a blonde wolf with golden eyes. It looked like a flash of sunlight as she ran. She was the smallest out of the three due to her being a girl, but she was about 5ft in length. Alex was a russet brown wolf, about 10 feet in length, dark brown almost black, intelligent eyes, and is very swift. And Riff was a huge black wolf, and quiet as a shadow, tall as a horse but more muscular, with dagger-like incisors and dark blue almost black. When they got to the scene still in wolf form....it was hard to investigate.“I know this is painfu
To Olympus Chapter 24, murder, murder!
`After the news of Christine’s transformation spread the others were happy and yet curious about how they were going to tame a young wolf and a young goddess. It was going to be a challenge but Alex is doing a good job so far. They were hunting one morning when they smelled blood in the air.“Thought bubble, you smell that?” Alex grew concerned with the smell of blood.“Yeah is that blood!? I think don’t it's human… it's animal.” Bernardo was with them to help Alex and Christine with their first hunt together.
