"Well, what happened was…"
The day of the court
Athena fainted and gasps could be heard all over the room
Deimos ran to his wife, fear all over his eyes, he feared he was going to lose her, he was not ready to lose her, and he was never going to be ready to lose the love of his life, his soulmate, his whole entire reason for existing
"Let me take a look," the priest said and after a go-ahead from Deimos he used his holy power on Athena to see what was wrong with her
"She is just a bit tired, she used too much of her holy power, I mean controlling the weather is no child's play after all," the priest said reassuring Deimos, but did it work.., no. He was still as worried as before if not more, if she was alright then why was she not waking up? That was the question that kept circling his head
"What do you mean by my sister is a saint?" Chloe emphasised her disbelief
She is someone who has been chosen by the goddess to do her work, the empress is the saint whom the goddess has sent down to deliver us all and if she is killed we will all suffer a great death" the priest said without a stutter
"This has to be a joke, that whore tried to kill my father and all of a sudden she is a saint, what type of saint kills people for a living?" Chloe asked and chuckled
"The Empress does what the goddess tells her to do and your father married a demon so he deserves to be killed," the priest said and that shocked everyone in the room
"A demon," Chloe asked confused
"Yes a demon, you are a product of a human and a demon, your mother is a demon, she has the spirit of Jezabell and the demon of death inside her, she wants the Empress dead no matter what, why do you think she carried that demonic doll everywhere she goes?" the priest said and asked
"Mom?" Chloe called her name
"Don't tell me you believe that darling?" her mom said and chuckled
"You know what your family did for your mother to be able to bear children, you are the devil itself," the priest said as she pointed at Chloe's mother who started laughing and asking if anyone actually believed him
Deimos was too stunned to even say a word and all he could think about was his wife in his arms
