Chereads / Zeus — Mythology Series #1 / Chapter 17 - Chapter Fourteen

Chapter 17 - Chapter Fourteen

Poseidon and Hades came to the kingdom of Zeus at the same time. Poseidon immediately noticed the annoyance on his brother's face. He just laughed and went inside first. Hades noticed that Poseidon laughed at him so he got even angrier.

He chase after Poseidon and forced him to face him.

"What the hell is wrong with you?"

Poseidon tried to remove Hades' grip but the god did not give up. He tightened his grip even more which made Poseidon scream in pain.

Suddenly the door opened and Hera opened up to them. She looked at his two brothers and looked at Hades' hand holding Poseidon.

"Look who showed up. The queen of the heavens. A traitor to the law."

Hera ignored Hades and approached Poseidon and forcibly removed Hades' hand.

"The law you are referring to has been removed for a long time so do not criticize me. Go inside because Zeus has been waiting for you for a while."

Poseidon first looked at Hades badly before following Hera inside. Hades just shook his head and angrily followed the two. Arriving at the meeting room, suddenly lightning flashed towards Hades. Fortunately, the god escaped immediately.

"Is that how you welcome your brother?"

"Welcome to my kingdom, Hades."

Hades looked around the kingdom. If his father had chosen him to rule in heaven, he would have been happy now and he would not have felt hatred.

"I don't care. Let's just start the meeting so that I can leave this awful place."

"So, shall we begin?"

Hera was restless in her seat. She was always thinking about her son and what was going on because Demeter was watching over him. Zeus and Poseidon were talking when someone suddenly shouted. A shout that frightened Hera. She quickly left her seat and ran to her room where Demeter and her son were and just covered his mouth with what she saw.

Demeter was just sitting on Hera's bed watching her son. She wanted to call Hestia to carry out the plan but she was hesitant. She did not want Hera's son to disappear so soon. A few minutes passed and Hera's son suddenly moved. Demeter immediately stood up and approached him because he might just be hungry and want something to eat or drink. The goddess looked into his crib and suddenly Hera's son floated back. It was scary to look at because suddenly it's eyes turned red and it's appearance changed. Based on his appearance it turned out to be a vampire.

"Is this what the sorcerer said? How can you be a vampire when vampires are our worst enemies?"

The boy came closer to her and Demeter backed away until she could not back down. She's cornered and she has no escape.

"Stop!"

"You really think that I can't kill you? Remember this Demeter or should a say, Aunt Demeter, I can kill you right now, right here where you're standing at and no one can stop me."

"AHHHHHHH!"

Hera quickly helped Demeter get up. The goddess was scratched and her cheek was still bleeding.

"What happened Demeter?! Answer me!"

Demeter looked around and stopped at the crib where Hera's son was staying. The child just stared at her like nothing seemed to happened earlier.

"Your son is a devil!"

"What do you mean?! He's a baby for heaven's sake! He can't do this to you!"

Demeter removed Hera's hand that was clinging to her and brought her face closer to her sister.

"I'm a goddess Hera and I can determine if someone is good or not. You don't believe me? Fine! But don't ever ask me for help when something bad happens to you because of that child."

Demeter left Hera's room leaving Hera all confused. He passed the three brothers in the hallway and was immediately approached by Poseidon.

"What happened to you?! Are you alright?"

Demeter ignored her and the goddess just walked straight out of the palace.

"I need to talk to Hestia."
