(Christopher The God of Good fortunes Pov)
I had been struggling for the last few weeks. Ever since I laid eyes on Mazaya. She was beautiful and perfect. Even when she was flustered and nobody was listening, she still light up the room. I was all for exploring every inch of her until she yelled at Alexander. It was like a ice cold bucket got poured on me but the fire started right back up even though it should've stayed down.
Now I've been drinking like there's no tomorrow every other day. Chasity thinks I'm stressed because of all the extra work that's been put on me but the reality is. I'm in love with my fiancee's sister in law. "I need another one." I slurred to the waiter. I was over filling it up myself.
If looks could kill I would definitely be a goner. The waiters here hated royals not lifting a finger. So as he came back and slammed my drink down I gave him one. He was fuming but could do nothing. This bar was filled with royals.
It was far from a classy establishment. It was wore down. The chairs squeaked when spinning and the wood had seen better days. It had pool tables that were no longer workable. Royals didn't play pool. So most of the balls were thrown around and the sticks were broken. I guess I could see why the waiters hated us. All the magic we had and we expected them to fix everything by hand.
As I looked around at all the damage and holes in the walls, someone tapped me. "Can I sit here?" A soft voice that sounded like they had better days asked. With a wave of my hand I gestured for them to go ahead. If they thought they would be getting any fortune from me tonight they had a rude awakening.
I was dealing with my own problems. "Christopher right?" The female said causing me to inwardly groan. I hated turning down people. It was so awkward. "In the flesh." I slurred out as I turnt to kindly tell her I wasn't using magic tonight.
"I want to apologize because I'm." I was stopped in my tracks by the sight in front of me. A very disoriented Mazaya was sitting down next to me.
She looked like she hadn't slept in days. Her hair was in a messy bun and her red curls were everywhere. Her eyes were alittle puffy and her nose was red. If someone was to look at her they would think she had a cold if she was a mortal. The outfit she wore looked like she hadn't been trying at all. Chasity showed me all kinds of pictures and I don't think any of them had Mazaya with pants in them. She had on joggers and a hoodie. Definitely not looking like the most powerful Goddess in existence. She was still beautiful but.
"You're busy?" She asked bringing me out of my head. I was just checking out my fiancees sister in law. I need to get myself together. "Did you need something?" I asked already knowing that no matter how badly I wanted to help I couldn't.
She meekly looked around and than talked. "Is there any private rooms here?" She asked. She seemed to be worried. "We can go to a booth and put up wards for privacy." I suggested already starting to get up. I probably should've prepared myself because I was losing my balance instantly.
"I got you. How much did you drink?" She asked in her sweet voice. Even when she was yelling at Alexander she sounded like a cat that had no claws. If only she knew that when she yelled and got mad she had no bite in her voice.
"Are you okay?" She asked as she helped me in the booth. She asked me something before shit. "I'm fine." I lied I was anything but fine. I was signing my death wish to Alexander.
"Okay well I'm going to just get straight to it. I need some good fortune. I miss my son."She cried out. Even her whines and cries were sexy. She didn't have a scratchy voice. It was soft and when she cried it was like a whimper.
I'm not demented but I could see why Alexander didn't care that she cried and screamed all the time. She probably thought she sounded like a tiger when really she was a baby kitten. "Can you help me?" She asked losing the confidence she had before.
I could use this to my advantage. "Yea I can. But you can't tell Alexander. You know he will probably kill me." I lied out. I would be telling Alexander about this right away. I needed to cut these feeling from the roots.
When Alexander gets her back it will be easier to breathe. Looking at her in front of me so desperate was doing things to my heart. Without much thought I was conjuring up another drink. "I think you've had enough." She whispered as she grabbed my hand.
Fuck how could Alexander not cherish her? "I'm fine but I won't drink it. Here." I said handing it to her. She looked at it and looked back at me before downing it. She couldn't take a shot right either. She did it so delicately and when she licked her lips Fuck I needed to get out of here.
"I can give you luck but you have to come by the palace tomorrow. You don't want the luck to go for something else. It will help with whatever you are desperate about." I lied. I would be giving her fake fortune.
It's one of my best abilities. Some people just can't take a hint so I fill them up with fake fortune. "Thank you." She actually cried making my gut churn. My heart wasn't happy with me.
"You'll just fill some pressure." I said. She gave me a beautiful smile and wiped her tears away. "I'm sorry. I just have had a really hard time. After this can I hug you. I feel so alone." She sobbed.
She hit me right in the heart. She didn't deserve this just because she was special. Without thinking I was giving her real Fortune. Lots of it. By the time I was done she had enough fortune to make her wildest dreams come true. I was screwed. Hopefully this fortune made Alexander treat her right otherwise I would be dead.
"Here. For the road." I said handing her another drink. She meekly looked at me and took it and downed it. "Well I guess I should get going." She hesitated. Why was she hesitating.
As she got up and started to walk away a random God came and sat down. I am not in the mood for this. As I was about to tell him off he started talking. "Are you really going to let a Beautiful girl like her go home alone crying. She looks beyond lonely. She looked like she didn't want to go." The Random God said before getting up and walking away.
Fuck i shouldn't do this but he saw it to. She hesitated and my heart wouldn't let me allow her to walk away. "Mazaya." I called out. She stopped and looked at me. Obviously she was stalling. She wanted some company.
I walked up to her alittle bit wobbly "How about I take you home." I asked hopefully she denied. At least I can say I tried. "Okay. I could use the company." She seemed to light up alittle. Fuck me.
( From here on I'm going to be combining my chapters and making them longer for detail. I hope you enjoy and it makes the experience better.)
