WAR GOD Chapter 135
Ares had driven straight to Athena's she seemed like his only friend at the moment, or at least the only one who knew a tad of what he had been going through for the past few days.Athena was surprised to see Ares at her doorstep, he had visited her a few times in the past, but none of those times had been unprecedented or unplanned.He had a thing for telling people he was hoping for you before showing up, and never has he shown up with a long face and sunken eyesShe knew something was wrong and did not wait for pleasantries or welcoming, with one hand, she dragged him inside without a word, closing the door behind them “Start talking.” She said, sounding a little demanding.“You sound like a mother ready to whoop her son,” Ares said, trying to lighten the mood.“Yeah, whatever,” Athena said, rolling her eyes at his remark.” talk.” She said, more demanding than the first time.“I think I fucked up big time.” He said, scratching his head as he sat, “Scratch that, I fucked up big tim

Chapter 136“Can I come too?” Vera asked with a smile.All eyes turned to look at her and her smile faded slowly as she realized, she was not one of them. She was human.“Oh, I am so sorry, I just thought…” she stuttered, finding the right words.“I don't think there is an issue with you coming, Vera,” Hermes said, turning to look at Ivan for approval.“No, it is fine really.” she said averting her eyes, “it's okay if I can't come, don't force it.” She said. “Ivan?” Hermes called.“Uhm, yeah,” Ivan said, looking around.“I will be upstairs,” Vera said, getting up and trudging up the stairs to the room.“That was cold,” Hermes commented.“She does not look so happy, you should take care of that,” Sara said, giving Ivan a pointed look.“I… I just” Ivan started.“You just what?” Hermes said, interrupting him, “Man if you don't get your ass off that seat and go talk to her.” He said sternly.Ivan looked between the both of them for a minute, Sara sat quietly but gave him a nod as if urgi

Chapter 137“It's a little chilly out today.” Athena noticed.“Yeah,” Ares said absentmindedly, his eyes focused on the road as he drove.“Hey, lighten up, okay?” Athena said, nudging his shoulders a little.“I am trying,” Ares whined. “We both know you are not.” Athena said, "If you were that frown would not be there and what is that look in your eyes again?” She asked playfully.“Stop it,” Ares said laughing.“Now, look who cracked a smile,” Athena said proudly, happy at her handwork.“Oh please, leave me alone,” Ares whined again. “Not a chance,” Athena said her eyes on the road too.“Look, man, I know you have been through a lot these past few days,” Athena said.“Tell me about it,” Ares said frustrated.“But you will be fine, okay?” Athena said, turning to look at him. “I trust you will be.” She added.“I just need a break, you know,” Ares said, glancing at her. “A break from all these happenings.” “You will be fine so don't worry too much,” Athena assured him.“And how is Sar
WAR GOD Chapter 138
Chapter 138It had been a couple of days since introducing Sara and Vera to the rest of the sect. They had blended in smoothly, especially Vera.She was human and Ivan had been skeptical about it, but he dared not show it, the least Vera took it the wrong way.Sara had been given a warm welcome, they had all missed her, and although she had little or no memory of most of them or her encounters with them, she had accepted them just like they did her.Vera, on the other hand, was so excited to be a part of the old gods, her smile was unmatched and Ivan was glad the sect welcomed her as much.Nothing had been heard from the old gods yet, but Ivan could tell they were up to something.Almost like he could smell their coup cooking. Hoping it was just his overthinking and nothing real. He could not afford any more losses.“Hey,” Vera called as she walked down the stairs smiling at him.“Hey,” Ivan said, his smile matching hers “you look wonderful Vera.” He complimented, staring at her.“Tha

Chapter 139Ares was slowly but finally getting back to his usual schedule and routine. It was hard not having Sara around, and even harder to keep the thoughts of her out of his mind.It seemed like an oddly impossible mission, but he was getting used to it.He had tried contacting her after their encounter, but his efforts had seemed futile.She seemed adamant about not wanting to speak to him, and he had decided to give her the space that she needed.Straightening his shirt in the mirror, he walked out of his room, grabbed his jacket and car keys and walked out the door The sect was finally meeting for the first time in a long while with him there, and he was a nervous wreck.He wondered if they would be willing to accept him back and let things move in like they used to.The ride to the café was short, and he stepped out of his car, with brisk long strides he walked into the café.It seemed half empty and servers hovered over tables with notepads and pens, scribbling orders.Ares

Chapter 140 Vera sat still thinking about all Aunt Marilyn had just said, it was unfortunate that she had toiled all those years with Mr. Anderson, and now everything was gone. She had nothing to show for it, she had lost her son, then her husband, and now the company. “I am so sorry you have to go through this, Aunt Marilyn,” Vera said, sympathizing with the older woman. “Thank you, Vera,” Marilyn said, sniffing. She had to be stung, she thought to herself. “I have something to tell you guys too,” Vera said. “Are you okay?” “Yes, dear, are you okay?” Catherine and Marilyn asked simultaneously. “Yes, I am fine now.” She said, looking at them intensely. She contemplated telling them, of course, they would freak out and her mother would scold her and Ivan for not involving the police like they had promised to. “I was kidnapped, a few days ago,” Vera said letting the cat out of the bag. “When?were?how?” Catherine asked in a panic. “Chill, ma, I am fine now.” Vera said reassu

“Ares!” Athena called furiously, stopping him in his tracks.To her, the meeting today was not only chaotic but Are's actions and words had made her question if he was still the same Ares she had always known It seemed all of a sudden he was so concerned about getting love and validation from these people that he had forgotten how to do the right thing.She had patiently waited for everyone to leave before she approached him on the topic.What he was trying to do was not fair, and his reasons for doing it were despicable.“Athena” Ares answered slowly turning to face her. “Look, I have made my decision, and it is final, I am not going back on my words.” He knew exactly what she wanted to say, she was going to go on about his decision and he would be damned if let he get in his way.“And you think promising them something like that or going ahead with it is fair?” Athena asked.“It might not be, but it would help. I gain their trust and love again, Athena, and that is precisely what

Chapter 186Sara sighed as she looked around the hospital room one last time. As much as she hated it here, she would miss these walls.These blank white walls that she had stared at all those nights when she could not sleep from all the pain that coursed through her, body and soul.Tuning to a waiting Hermes, she gave him a curt nod to signify she was ready to leave.Hermes patted her shoulders in reassurance, guiding the wheelchair out of the room and into the Hallway.Sara smiled and waved at the few patients whose faces she could remember, she would miss them.Not so much, though, but they had contributed one way or the other to her journey of recovery.As they wheeled out of the hospital, she sighed in satisfaction as fresh air hit her face, greeting her and the sunlight cast its warm glow on her skin.The fresh air she felt was a giant contrast to the sterile air inside the hospital, one she had slowly grown accustomed to but was now leaving behind.The scent of fresh air mingle

Chapter 183The rest of the ride was quiet, and soon they were there, parked in front of the house, with Ares too skeptical to walk up to the door.“You know we can't just sit here in the car and stare at the door all day,” Anna said, sighing in frustration.“Yeah, I know, it's just… I don't know Anna.” Ares said, his fingers gripping the steering wheel tightly, Ares exhaled a long breath.“Ares, we should go.” Anna urged him, “Let's go, come on.” Anna said, stepping out of the car and peeking in to give him a stern look.“Come on Ares,” Anna said as she walked towards the door.It was evening already, and Anna hoped with everything in her that they were in and would be willing to let them see the child.Ares finally gathered enough courage to step outside the car and all towards the door.Anna had already rang the bell, so she stood aside and waited for the door to open.Walking over to stand behind her, Anna turned to give him a reassuring look before ringing the bell again.This ti

Athena sighed as she rolled over in bed, it was one of those days when she would rather not in bed than get up for any reason But she had plans, and with the company being her sole responsibility now since Ares embarked on the journey of finding his child, she needed to be at the office.Rubbing her eyes for a few minutes, Athena finally rolled out, sitting at the edge of the bed and contemplating if all this was really worth it.Or perhaps she could ditch work and everything else for the day, fall back into her bed, and pretend none of it even existed.Scolding herself, she pushed off the bed and headed for the bathroom to get ready.Getting right into it, she did her morning business. Brushing her teeth lazily as she sat on the toilet bowl.Tearing her pajamas off her body when she was done, she trudged into the shower Putting on and letting the cold shower cascade down her back. Exhaling sharply as the cold cut through her skin, giving her goosebumps. It was precisely what she n
