"Deimos how could you let me sleep so much !", Athena yelled as she gathered her things to go take a shower
"You were sleeping like a baby so I didn't have the heart to wake you up", Deimos answered which only made Athena glare at him before she went into the shower room
"So cute", Deimos said to himself and went back to sleep

"Presenting the Duke and his wife Duchess Athena", the announcer said as Athena and Deimos walked inside
"You look beautiful by the way", Deimos whispered to Athena as they walked
"I know", she answered him and they stopped in front of the priest where the throne was
"I never thought this day would come when His Majesty the Emporer said that you would only become Emporer once you find your Empress, it frightened me and I was against it, but now I see why he said so. I congratulate you for finding your wife", the pope said and tapped Deimos shoulder
"Thank you", Deimos said to him
"I crown you both Emporer and Empress of Avaloria, may your ruling be one for the history books", the pope said as both Athena and Deimos were being crowned
"Emporer and Empress everyone!", someone yelled as Athena and Deimos stood facing everyone with their royal attire, there were cheers and applause from everyone who was there
"Welcome home Empress Athena", someone in the crowd said and smiled as they watched Athena and Deimos. The day that Athena returned to the North had finally arrived
"Thank you all for welcoming my wife and I", Deimos said to everyone and slightly bowed his head at everyone
"Seems like having a wife has already taken effect", the Pope whispered to Deimos
"It's a temporary effect", Deimos whispered back to him
"You will be surprised", the pope said and smiled at him
"Deimos", a girl called his name as she walked up to where Deimos and Athena were standing
"Maya", Deimos called her name
"Maya?", Athena called in confusion
"Yes Maya, I'm Deimos' nanny's daughter", Maya said to Athena
"Oh", Athena just said and looked at Deimos giving him the "explain" look
"Oh Maya this is my wife, Athena, Athena this is Maya, she's like a little sister to me", Deimos explained
"I see", Athena said
"I'm really pleased to meet you, Empress Athena, I have heard a lot about you, I wanted to meet you for a long time now, but I was never allowed to go to Searella", Maya said as she held Athena's hand smiling
"You've heard about me?" Athena asked
"Yes, the only princess who has red eyes and white highlighted hair, it's truly an honour to meet you", Maya said and kneeled as she kissed Athena's hand
"Please stand, this is too much for me", Athena said as she helped Maya stand up
"I'm sorry, I'm just so excited to see you", Maya said and smiled at Athena
"Okay Maya, now let go of my wife", Deimos said as he pulled Athena towards him
"Of course, you Majesty", Maya said as she let go of Athena
"I hope you and I can be friends Empress, there's a lot I can learn from you", Maya said, bowed her head and left with a smile on her face. The person she was waiting for had finally arrived where she belonged. The goddess Athena had answered her prayers. Both of her prayers
