I eyed the succubi in shock, she was high or something, causeI didn't love Hestia like that. I mean yes I did love her, but not romantically, she was my friend, the one person that made the idea of not giving up worth it, the only one I would die for , she was my safe haven in this world of nightmare….She… oh no. Was it true, did I love Hestia?

It was true, FUCK! Of all the beings in this universe I could've fell for, I fell for her… the one not interested in anything beyond friendship. Well, it didn't mattered if I loved her or not, I was happy with just being close to her, and that didn't have to be romantically speaking.

"I can taste your love," Honey giggled, "I can't believe you didn't know until know," she snorted, rolling her eyes at me, "Don't worry, I'm sure she will be happy to hear how you feel,"

"Hestia is… against having a relationship," I snorted, and she deserved better than me, better than anyone in this world, "Because of her brother, Zeus, and her dad Kronos, she decided it was best to stay single forever,"

"Were those two that bad?" Honey inquired, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

"Well, Kronos ate all of his children, including Hestia to avoid a prophecy that foretold he was going to be dethroned by one of his children," I sighed, that man had to be one if not the worse father in the universe, "and… well, Hestia remembers everything, from her being in her mother's arms, to the cries of her mother begging Kronos not to eat her, that scarred her…. then her little brother, who practically invented infidelity…" I chuckled, "Hestia would watch as Zeus destroyed families, and hurt his wife just to get his dick into something, and well… it hurt her, as the Goddess of the Hearth, the house and unity… she hated what her brother did," I sighed.

"That's fucked up," Honey clicked her tongue.

"It is," I nodded, "And don't even make me start with Poseidon, who was like Zeus but worse,"

"Her other brother?" Honey muttered.

"Yep, Zeus while an asshole, liked the process of getting your panties down, it was a challenge to him, while he did rape some, he liked it better when they gave him what he wanted willingly, Poseidon on the other hand, that bastard would rape and do shit like that just because he could," I sighed, "While yes, Zeus fucked more people than all the gods in his la pantheon together, what little Poseidon did was arguably worse,"

"No wonder Hestia wants to stay single," Honey shuddered, "That family is fucked up, and that is saying something, because I come from hell,"

"Hestia is the one… soul in that house of horrors that is pure and gentle," I smiled, she really was special. A golden soul amongst the shitty of the shit.

"Oh well, I still think you would make a great boyfriend, you have a good head above your shoulders, you actually care for others, your main intention is never to get laid, and you have a very very VERY nice dick," Honey smiled, say what now.

"Honey… How do you know how my dick looks like?" I asked, a bit worried about what the answer was going to be.

"I have my ways," Honey winked.

[Athena POV]

Adam had come back from wherever he had been hiding, the innocent young god that had suffered under the misjudgment of my father, as many had before him. Then again, I can hardly blame Zeus for this one, like him, I too like the entirety of Olympus relied on Apollo to see if someone was lying to us, and that had proved to be our lamentable downfall with Adam, a regrettable incident that I intended to try and fix.

Perhaps I could start a civilized conversation with him now that I knew where he was, where I would offer I'm an alliance between our realms, but I had a strong feeling he would not be interested in an alliance, not just yet. But I had to do something, I did not want to elucidate my failure to Olympus the next meeting.

Besides, there was something different with Adam, he was vastly stronger than he should've been by now, but that wasn't it, his behavior was almost as if he was experiencing some kind of malaise that had him on an edge.

And this obfuscated me, to no end. The Adam I had been watching in camp and this one were like two different individuals. His aura was dark and downright dangerous now, opposed to his giddy and friendly one a few months ago. It was both terrifying and scintillating, I couldn't help myself but wonder, what had changed.

If I had to take a educated guess, I would say his power was above mine, not by much, but it was, and he had been a God for less than a year, it terrified me to no end, what would happen if he continued to grow at this rate unchecked, unallied with Olympus, this was something my father failed to see, it was best for us to have him in our side, because as our enemy, he would bring nothing but chaos and destruction if we didn't fixed the bridge stupidity brought down.

Perhaps I could try to be a real sycophant to gain his forgiveness, this was however a stretch, I doubted anyone but Hestia would managed to convince him to join us, so perhaps, my attempts to convince where not on the right target, perhaps I should focus my attention on Hestia.

After all, like that foul demon that was walking him earlier said, he loves her, and men had proven to become idiots with little to no intelligence when it comes to love, "I hope Hestia still considers me a friend," I sighed, if she did, this was a war I had already won, because for all his power, Adam was still a man, and one in love.
