Falling for War (BWWM-MYTHOLOGY)

13

The soft gleam of moonlight danced across her face as Yanni  woke up to Klavius placing a tray beside the bed. She shivered slightly from the crisp breeze that steadily drifted in through the large arched window above the bed 

Yanni rubbed at her eyes looking around for Ares. She had spent last night in his bed. He surprisingly enough didn't try to touch her  at all. Still sleeping beside him felt heavenly. Yanni smiled to herself at the memory of how he held her all throughout the night

A single white rose was placed in the spot he had occupied. Yanni smiled at it butterflies erupting her stomach. She wondered where he had gotten it. No roses grew in his realm for sure

Klavius smirked at her dreamy expression

"The God of War told me to apologize on his behalf. He left early this morning to take care of that pesky feuding problem" 

Yanni nodded rising from the comfortable bed. She ate her food and left his rooms to begin her chores. There were not many since her main duty was to serve Ares. So she instead found other chores to occupy her time

She recalled how sweet Ares had been to her last night as they entwined within one another 

His hand caressed her cheek

"You are exceptionally beautiful" he had whispered with such reverence

Yanni remembered how deeply she blushed at those words

He pressed a tender kiss on her full mouth that quickly turned into a deep heated hungry bid to dominate and consume

Yanni closed her eyes in memory of the feel of his hard body pressed securely against her

She also remembered how he had pulled away far too soon, licked at her lips once more and whispered 

"soon.."

Then he protectively enfolded her in his muscular arms and told her to sleep

Yanni sighed as she was brought back to the present, scrubbing at the pan before her leisurely; Wishing she was with Ares instead

That is where Klavius found her, his eyes frantic as they fixed on her 

"What are you doing?!" he shouted

Yanni looked up startled. had she done something wrong?

"I..was helping to was-"

"The gathering of the gods is in 2 days we need to have an outfit fitted for you. You don't have time for that.. lets go"

Yanni was stunned. She didn't think she needed all that just to accompany Ares to the gathering. She knew all about the gathering, She had worked it for many many years. It was in her opinion simply an excuse for the gods to get drunk off wine and frolic openly with one another

Yanni recalled how much she hated working it too, because more often than not some god would attempt to grope or proposition her. however this time she would be with Ares, maybe it would be different. Maybe she'd even have a good time. 

Yanni hurried after Klavius as he walked briskly  down the halls until they reached a empty room where a woman stood. She was a mortal and had a bit of age to her but a kind smile as she perused Yanni holding up her measuring tools

"Come child there is not a moment to lose. These old hands cant sew as fast as they once could  and this outfit must be exceptional" She exclaimed her voice full of excitement

Yanni went to her and the woman immediately  set to work

Hours later after she had been poked prodded and pulled more than enough for several lifetimes Yanni was exhausted.
