WAR GOD Chapter 176
Chapter 176Ivan sighed as he knotted his tie, staring at his reflection in the mirror, it was finally time to step out of the house for the first time in weeks.“I think this would go best,” Vera said, holding up a brown jacket as she walked out of the closet. “Thank you,” Ivan said, kissing her on the cheek while he slipped the jacket on.Vera had been his strength throughout the period of his recovery from enduring the brutalities of the war.The journey towards healing from something that was as arduous as the battle he had fought.The scars it had left, both seen and unseen, had marked his path towards recovery.“Ivan,” Vera called softly from behind him.“Yes,” Ivan called, staring at her reflection in the mirror as she walked back to him.“You are doing it again.” She said solemnly, her voice soft as a sea breeze, and her hands grazed his shoulder.“Doing what exactly?” Ivan asks confused, turning to face her.“The thing where you get very deep into thought, it is scary someti

Ivan parked the car in the front of café, sighing as he stared at the building for a minute.It's only been a few days of being away and he missed it.“Are we going in or what?” Hermes asked when he stepped out and noticed Ivan was still seated.They both walked in together, the café looked packed as it was a few minutes past noon and people trooped in to get their lunches.Ivan and Hermes both walked to the back, glancing around to make sure they were safe and out of sight.Slipping stealthily into the wall and appearing in the arena. The hall was not as packed as it should and used to be.Ivan knew this was his subtle reminder as to how much war and conflict can and would affect a people.His eyes scanned the room and the solemn and sad faces, his heart went out to them mourning for their losses.Walking up to his seat, Ivan stood in their midst, his eyes could see the grief written on their faces.The pain of losing such a number was great, and although he longed to come to them wi

“Thank you,” Anna answered awkwardly. “We need your help.” She said going straight to the point.“I would be happy to help if I can,” Nelly said, giving them a look and emphasizing the can “My friend gave up her kid through this agency a few years ago.” Anna began, Ares sat back and let her do the talking since she got along with Nelly more.“Okay,” Nelly said, urging her on.“And she is on her sick bed right now,” Anna said solemnly. “Her one wish is that we find her kid.” Anna stared at Nelly for a reaction.Something to help her know if they were going in the right direction, or maybe they would have to retrace their steps.“How am I going to be of help in all this?” Nelly asked.“We just need the address of the foster family.” Anna said, "She gave a name, all we need is an address.” “I don't think I can help with this, Anna.” Nelly began, a sad look on her face.“Please Nelly, we are not going to take the child or try to fight for custody,” Anna assured her. “All Sara needs is

Catherine glanced at the mirror before she walked out of the room, clad in a flowy skirt and a long-sleeved cardigan, as it promised to be cold out.The living room was still empty, and she wondered what was taking Marilyn's time.“Marilyn?” She called up the stairs. “We will be late, and we don't want that, so hurry.” She stared blankly up the stairs and looked a little alarmed when she got no response.The last time something like this had happened, she had found Marilyn passed out.Catherine walked back up the stairs, her heart beating as she panicked. “Marilyn?” She called as she knocked on the door, pushing it open when no reply came from within.“Marilyn?” Catherine rushed to the bed when she saw her still tucked into bed.“Catherine,” Marilyn called back sadly, her voice shook and Catherine could sense that she had been crying all this while.“Are you okay?” Catherine asked, “That is a stupid question for me to ask, of course, you are not okay.” Catherine said on second thoug

Chapter 181Sara roamed the hallways of the hospital clad in the ugly hospital gown that she had been wearing for the past few days.It had become somewhat of a habit to roam these halls in her wheelchair whenever she was bored or sick of laying in her bed.She could feel herself slowly getting better, not enough to go back home but enough to sit, sometimes stand, and do minor tasks.Vera and Ivan were always so kind to drop in and check up on her, but she had asked them to limit the visits.Not that she was not appreciative or that she did not want to two, but their presence was nostalgic.Bringing with it thoughts and reminders of the war, and how she had gotten to be in her current situation in the first place.And reminders of the war brought with them crazy nightmares that kept her awake all night wondering what would have happened had she not done what she had done.Sara could still feel the pain from when she had dived into that strike, Ivan led the old gods, and she would have

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

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
