Chereads / Heaven Hates Me / Chapter 10 - A mortal heart

Chapter 10 - A mortal heart

The two gods look that each other. Thinking on the matter at hand. Ella looked away from her little brother. This is her fault. She did this to her self. Lucerne gently turn her head to look at him.
"Sister this is not your fault. We all have the responsibility too. You can't be the only one to carry the burden. We have to use them. This is the way it is for us. Do not fall to a mortal heart. We gods have always use them to do task that we can't not."
"Oh. So now you want to be a prophet. Little brother I have very little feeling for mortals. Father once told me that mortals give us our powers. And must be respected and appreciated them for it. I go once a month to the temple and grant blessing to them. You should remember that."
Her anger was so cute to him. He laugh at her. Her face to so red that her body glow red. He stop laughing. Wide eyes and a jaw dropped. The glow grew brighter to the point he had to close his eyes. Ella felt her body warmer up to pain. Her powers spread through her body. Shearing her in two. Her heart stop beating. She fell over the side of the house.
"ELLA" Lucerne jump to her to catch before she hit the ground. In his arm was a young man with brown hair. The face of the young man had a define beauty. Angular cheekbones with a receding chin. His nose was small and straight. The lips are plump and lush ready to be kiss. Lucerne was shocked. Could this really be his sister in a man form? He knew his sister was a Beautiful woman. But as a man he is handsome beyond words. Ella moan.
"Ella?" Lucerne started to worried. Now that he find Ella. He has to meet up with our little brothers and sister. He was in a dilemma. He knew that this would happen, but he did think that it was this fast. He should had warn her, but then it wouldn't matter.
Ella ache all over. She moved her arms. The sting paining shot up and down her arms. Taking her breath away.
"AHHHH!"
"Ella, Ella. Please take this pill." Lucerne place a pill in Ella mouth. "It's will heal you." The pain recede. "Take a deep breath for me." Ella did. "Good, very good. Now tell me how you feel." Ella finally opened her eyes. To see Lucerne worry gaze. His eyes shine like the stars in the night sky. She reach out and touch his cheek.
"I am fine my brother. I now have some of my power. I can change my form now." Lucerne signed with relief.
"I am glad Ella. Now I don't have to worry for you. But we still have watch out. Our bothers and sisters are looking for us. Kell still has them under a spell." Ella nodded.
"At first light, we leave." Ella stand up with the help of her brother. She was off balance. They jump once more on the roof. Lucerne looked at the new handsome man that is his sister. He notice her appearance.
"Ella, you might want to change in to something more comfortable." Ella look down at herself and notice she had no clothes on. Her face turn bright red. With a wave of her hand. She made herself in to green robes. Her clothes were high silk with gold border thread. Lucerne put his hand on his face and shook his head.
"Dear sister, you want to down grade your clothes. Just a little. We have to blend in with them." Ella was taken back. Look once more at herself and signed. One more wave of her hand. Dark forest green with brown edgings robe. Still high silk. Lucerne slap his forehead. With out looking he wave his hand and change her silk robes to cotton. The young man face darkened.
"Ella please for once just do this. If you walk in silk clothing. We are asking for trouble."
"Oh for god sakes, why can't I wear what I want."
"Ella, We are hiding not standing out to be find." He rolled his eyes at her. The young Ella cross her arms and turned her head away. Even in this form she look cute. Lucerne laugh. For the rest of the night they talked. Waited for the sun to rise. They glance to the west. The first light peeked over the horizon. The day just begin and the persisted of worry from the night was still there. They jump off the roof. Alejo was the first one out the door.
"I was just wondering why are you on the roof. You could of stay in the house." Lucerne looked a bit annoyed.
"For your information. We gods can be anywhere. You just can't see us. And just for the record I don't have to tell you when we be there." Ella smack the back of his head.
"Don't be like that." The young man was handsome. Alejo eyes dazed looking at him. Never in his whole life has he seem some one like him. Young, attractive, and very good looking to him.
"Who are you?" Ella was taken back. That right she forgotten.
"See Ella. How that your in your adult form. No one can guess that you were that cute little boy from before."
Alejo was shock. He looked again at the young man. There was some similarly between the two. He looked to be around his age. No baby fat on his cheeks. No longer cute but very handsome man. His heart did a flip. He blushed. His feeling to protect this person was even more stronger than before. And there was something else was well. A feeling that he have never felt before. Think on this his father and mother came out. Both shaken to see the Ella new form. Both were confused that first. Than recognition shows on their faces. The two of them bow to her.
"No needed to do that. You have help me. So a request of me is in your right to ask of me. What little power I have. I can give you request now or you can wait until you feel the need to use the request." A request from any god. Is a wish that can be granted by the gods. Any wish or desire the heart wants can be granted by them. The freedom to chose your fate or the destiny of your life to come. Can change with that request of the gods. But it comes with a heavy price to the god. If the god can not grant the request. The power of the god of the request will be taken down by half. Most gods will never give a request to mortals. There are a few mortals in the history of the gods, that have gotten a request. Ella can remember each and every one of them. She had one of them in her life time. She never wanted to grant one but this family help her in her time of needed. Michael and Sara looked at each other. Then looked back that Ella. They shook their head.
"We will not ask for this. We have every thing we need. Our family will not ask for you to grant a request to us." Michael said.
"That is right. Our love and our honor to the gods. Go beyond others. We wish for you just to thanks us and us a blessing to our home." The wife and husband looked to their only son. Alejo smiled at his parents. He knew what they were thinking. Nothing in this world that can make them happy but each other love. Ella never thought she will meet mortals with a higher standard in life.
