“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

Chapter 184Keeping her little family private was not exactly a choice that Athena had chosen for herself, but it was what seemed to be right at the time.She had made a family, a small, beautiful one with a mortal whom she had bared herself to.Alex was the one man who had seen beyond her mortality, and even more understood her when she explained who she was.They had met downtown when Ares had sent her on an errand. They had bumped into each other while she was trying to cover her tracks.Something had clicked between them ever since, and Athena could not resist it.Of course, they had met again, and again, and again. By the third time they met, they were stumbling into his little apartment.Lips locked, hands all over each other, and clothes flying off their bodies. Stumbling and quickly, they had found the bed and Athena was unable to remember a more passionate night for her.They had made sweet love, with his hands and mouth on every inch of her body.Athena knew then that she wo

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
