The Love of Family
Chapter 1: The Oda Family
Our story starts at a suburban house with 5 bedrooms, 2 ½ bathrooms, two dedicated office spaces, and a finished basement. In the Master bedroom is a peacefully sleeping couple, well one is peacefully sleeping while the other is just waking up. The one waking up is the man of the couple; he's 28 years old standing at 6'2 with tanned skin, shoulder length black hair that he quickly smoothed back and spiked up, and deep violet eyes. This man is Ren Oda, demigod son of the Shinto Goddess of Death Yuma, the Shinigami. Ren threw the covers off of him as he stood up from the bed onto the hardwood floor of the room, doing so showed that he wore black pajama pants and no shirt. Without his shirt we can see that Ren's body is incredibly toned and sculpted as he has rock hard six pack abs and a muscular but lean frame. There also appeared to be 4 names tattooed on his left peck.
After stretching a bit Ren looked to his clock and saw that it was 6:30 A.M. It was Sunday so he decided to make breakfast for his family, but first he needed to freshen up so he went into the master bathroom. Once he finished taking a shower and brushing his teeth he came and got dressed in some comfortable clothes which consisted of black sweatpants and a white T-shirt.
Ren quietly walked over to the woman still sleeping on the bed and smiled down at her peacefully sleeping face that had a small smile on it. She was so beautiful to him, whether she was asleep or awake just looking at her made him fall in love with her all over again. He slowly ran his fingers through her soft, curly black hair before he bent down and kissed her forehead.
"I love you, my beautiful Queen." Ren whispered in her ear with all the love he could put into his words. When her smile grew a bit he knew she felt his love, as she always should. Ren felt that he didn't deserve the beautiful creature he held in his arms every night, he felt she could do so much better than him. But yet this Queen among unworthy peasants had chosen to be with him, had chosen to give him her love, and had chosen to marry him.
He kissed her one more time before he left the room and headed for the kitchen, the hardwood floors that went through out the house was cold to his bare feet but the feeling didn't last. As he walked down the hall he walked past four closed doors with three of them having soft snoring coming from them letting him know that the occupants were still sleeping, there wouldn't be any sounds coming from the fourth room for a little while longer.
Once Ren reached the kitchen he quickly took out the ingredients he needed for the rather large breakfast he was going to have to make. He didn't mind though as he loved his family deeply, they were the most important thing in his life.
AN HOUR AND A HALF LATER
Ren had a couple of things cooking at once, bacon and sausage, both link and patty, on one eye, Pancakes on the second, hashbrowns on the third, scrambled eggs on the fourth, biscuits in the oven, and waffles in the waffle iron.
Ren then heard soft footsteps coming down the hall and turned to see who it was. He smile when he saw that it was his first born daughter. She was 8 years old with tanned skin, stormy gray eyes, and curly blonde hair. She's currently wearing a gray knee length pajama dress with the image of an owl on the front. His little girl's name was Annabeth Oda, demigod daughter of Athena and granddaughter of the Shinigami.
"Good morning Annie, How did you sleep?" asked Ren with a warm smile.
"Good morning Dad, I slept very well. Oh you're making breakfast! Alright what are we having!?" asked an excited Annabeth. She loved her dad's cooking and could honestly say that no matter how much she ate it she never got tired of it.
"We're having everything Annie, why don't you set the table so that when everyone wakes up we can eat." said Ren.
Annabeth nodded and went into the dining room in order to set up the table. Ren smiled as he watched his child set the table, he had already gotten the dishes out of the cabinets so he didn't have to worry about her getting them down. Annabeth was easily the smartest of his four children which wasn't surprising with who her mother was. Thinking about Athena made him frown a bit, he had loved her dearly and when she left it hurt him badly. Sure she was logical about it and explained why she had to leave but you can't explain love so when she left a part of him went with her. Annabeth was the last piece of her he had and he cherished her, he remembered that he hadn't put Annabeth down for a whole week after Athena left.
It took a while for his heart to heel but it did eventually, but even to this day he knew that deep down he still loved her. That's the thing about being the son of Death, it made you appreciate life and all that came with it, like love. Ren then heard two sets of quickly moving footsteps heading for the dining room.
"Girls what did I tell you about running in the house!" yelled Ren.
"Sorry Papa!" said two similar voices. Coming into view were two twin 5 year old girls, they were Ren's second and third daughters. The first one, which was older by a 2 minutes, had fair skin, shoulder length, straight black hair, and silver eyes. She was currently wearing white socks, dark blue pajama pants, and a black T-shirt with a wolf on the front with a full moon in the background. The younger twin had tanned skin, shoulder length, spiky auburn hair, and deep violet eyes. Currently she was wearing white socks, dark orange pajama pants, and a white T-shirt with the image of a grazing deer on the front and a bright yellow sun in the background. These girls are Luna Oda and Solaris Oda, demigod daughters of Artemis and granddaughters of the Shinigami.
"Girls please be careful, you know these floors are slippery when you run on them while wearing socks." said Ren.
"We'll be careful Papa." Luna and Solaris said at the same time. Ren would admit to himself that it creeped him out a bit when they did that, especially on Halloween.
"What are we having for breakfast Papa?" asked Luna in her usual calm and collected voice, just like he remembered their mother talking in.
"We're having everything Dear." said Ren.
"Alright, I want 10 waffles and 20 pieces of bacon!" said Solaris in a cheerful and energized voice, just like he remembered their mother saying her brother spoke in.
Ren couldn't help but shake his head at his daughter's antics though he knew full well that she really could eat that much, so could Luna. Ren chalked this up to them being the most active of his children so they needed the fuel to keep them moving.
"Go help your sister set the table girls, we're still a few members short before we can start breakfast." said Ren as the girls nodded and went to help Annabeth. Ren smiled as he watched his three girls work together in order to set the table while he tended to the food. Ren resisted thinking too much about Artemis; when she left Artemis simply handed him the twins and told him not to screw up. He knew that Artemis wasn't one to discuss her feelings but even Athena told him goodbye. Artemis leaving hurt worse than Athena's simply because of how cold she was about it.
Ren was taken out of his thoughts when he felt something tug at his pants. Looking down Ren smiled warmly when he saw his youngest daughter. She was 3 years old with fair skin, wavy chocolate brown hair, and large eyes that were a beautiful mixture of brown and deep violet. Currently she's wearing a long sleeved cream colored pajama dress that went down to her ankles. This adorable little girl is Alessandra Oda, demigod daughter of Hestia and granddaughter of the Shinigami.
"Good morning Aless." said Ren
"Morning Daddy." said Alessandra in a soft voice. Out of Ren's children Alessandra was the shyest but also the kindest and most helpful with house work. "Daddy, can I help cook?" asked Alessandra.
"Sure you can Sweetie." said Ren as he picked her up so she could help him. She just watched the food and told when to turn something over or suggested to add a spice. Once the food was finally done Ren put Alessandra down and patted her head. "Go get your sisters and tell them that it's almost time to eat." said Ren. Alessandra nodded and walked towards the living room since her sisters had finished setting the table and were now watching TV.
Ren smiled as he watched his youngest and thought about how much she reminded him of her mother. He actually didn't mind thinking about Hestia, sure it hurt when she left but she greatly expressed her desire to stay with him. She explained that she feared what Zeus would do if he found out she had a child since even though she wasn't one of the main Olympians anymore she was still the eldest Olympian. They cried together when she had to leave but she did tell him that she loved him and that she was sorry.
Ren was once again brought out of his thoughts thanks to the sound of one last set of footsteps. Turning to the source he smiled lovingly as he found his wife standing there smiling at him. She was a beautiful woman just a bit shorter than him with fair skin, long wavy black hair, a large round stomach, and deep green eyes. She's currently wearing lavender silk night dress and her matching house slippers. This is Rhea Oda, Ren's wife of 2 years, step-mother of Ren's four daughters, daughter-in-law of the Shinigami, Titaness of Motherhood, Fertility, Generation, Comfort, Blessings, and Ease, mother of the Greek Gods, and is currently 8 months pregnant with Ren's fifth child.
Ren smiled as he turned everything off, walked over to his wife, and kissed her lovingly on the lips. "Good morning Dear, how did you sleep?" asked Ren as he held his wife in his arms.
"I slept well Honey, until I woke up and found that you weren't there. I assume that was because you were making breakfast." said Rhea.
"Yes I was making breakfast which I am finished with now, come on Dear, let's go sit down and enjoy a meal with the girls." said Ren as Rhea nodded and allowed her husband to lead her to the dining room table.
"Good morning Mama Rhea." said the girls at once.
"Good morning girls." said Rhea with a smile at the girls. They may not have been her children by birth but she sure did love them like they were her own. They knew that she wasn't their birth mother, in fact they all knew that they had different mothers since Ren didn't like lying to them, but they loved Rhea anyway since she was so nice and loving to them. Rhea was helped into her seat by her husband before they all sat and started to eat. "Honey you have outdone yourself yet again, this is delicious." said Rhea with the girls nodding their heads.
"Thank you Dear, but it is nowhere near as good as the food you make." said Ren. This was true as Ren had no problem admitting that his wife was a better cook than him, as far as Ren was concerned Rhea's cooking skills were unmatched.
"Dad do you have to go to the restaurant today?" asked Annabeth. Ren was the owner and head chef of his own restaurant, Oda Palace.
"No Annie I don't have to go to work today, I took today off since I have a surprise for my little princesses." said Ren.
"DAD! You promised you'd stop calling me that, I'm too old for that title." said Annabeth with her face being bright red with embarrassment. Luna and Solaris were just fine with their father calling them his princesses and Alessandra just smile as she liked being her daddy's little princess.
"I promised nothing like that Annie, what I said was that I would think about it and I've decided that no matter how old you get all four of you will always be my little princesses." said Ren a firm nod as if he was stating a world wide fact.
"Fine." said Annabeth with a pout though on the inside she was smiling, she would never admit that she loved being her dad's princess otherwise he would call her that in public and that would be really embarrassing.
Rhea simply smiled warming at the scene she had just witnessed, she knew Annabeth liked being her father's princess much like Athena liked being Zeus's little war muffin. She also knew that just like her mother Annabeth would never admit it. While Rhea loved witnessing and being a part of small family moments like this it also made her sad to know that she couldn't do this with her own children when they were born, her ex-husband Kronos had taken that away from her. Sure she loved raising Zeus but the fact that she had to do it in hiding kept her from enjoying it as much as she wanted to. Rhea then placed a hand on her swollen stomach and smiled softly, she gently rubbed her stomach as she thought about the new chance she was given to properly raise a child. It always bothered her that she was the Titaness of Motherhood yet she never got the chance to be a proper mother.
Once the family had finished breakfast Ren was washing dishes while the girls had gone to get dressed for their father's surprise. Reha sat in her chair smiling at her husband's back, as she became further along in her pregnancy he had started letting her do less and less around the house until she pretty much did nothing at all but allow him to wait on her hand and foot. She actually felt a bit bad about it since with his job, taking care of the girls, and then taking care of her she knew he was stretching himself thin. He would never show it though, always keeping that warm and loving smile on his face.
Standing up from her chair Reha walked over to her husband and kissed his cheek. "So do you think the baby will be a boy or a girl?" asked Reha.
"Honestly, I'm hoping it's a boy. Don't get me wrong I love the girls more than anything but I am dangerously outnumbered here." said Ren with a small smile.
"I can see your point, but what if we do have another girl?" asked Reha.
"Then I'll love her like I do all of my girls." said Ren without hesitation.
"I know you will." said Reha before they became quiet for a few moments. "When are you going to tell the girls?" asked Reha. Ren sighed at this, he hated keeping things from his daughters and the fact that they were demigods was something he didn't like keeping from them, but did so in order to keep them safe.
The problem though was that Annabeth was insanely smart and would probably figure it out sooner or later. Another problem was that it was tearing him up inside to keep this secret from them, Annabeth, Luna, and Solaris have all asked about their mothers before and all he could do was give them vague information, it was only a matter of time before Alessandra asked about her own mother. He couldn't do it anymore, they deserve to know their mothers and they deserved to know the truth. He'd protect them from any danger that came their way, he'd cut the Gods themselves down if they tried to harm his family.
"I'll tell them tonight, they deserve to know and I can't keep the secret from them anymore, besides I'm sure their mothers will be happy that their daughters know of them." said Ren.
"You want me to be there?" asked Reha.
"Yes, you being there will help a lot." said Ren.
Reha hugged her husband from behind with a frown on her face. She knew talking about his past loves would be hard on him simply because he stilled loved them. If there was one thing she knew about the Shintos it was that even though they didn't have a God of love they loved harder than any other beings she knew of. While this would be hard for him she would be there for him, plus she had a plan to fix things between her daughter and her granddaughters.
LATER THAT DAY
Driving through the city in his 2004 silver Hummer Ren couldn't help but smile at what he was doing, the girls had asked him about this months ago and he was sure they had forgotten about it by now. Ren used to own a Mustang but as his family got bigger he traded it for this Hummer because he needed the space, sure he could have gotten a van but he refused to drive a van. Reha was all smiles as well since she knew the girls would love Ren's surprise; the girls were in the back seats with blindfolds on, Alessandra was of course in a car seat.
A few minutes later they arrived at their destination. Ren got out first and then helped Reha and the girls out. "Alright girls take your blindfolds off." said Ren. The girls took off their blindfolds and were shocked at what was in front of them, it was a pet store.
"Dad, are you serious?" asked Annabeth while her siblings looked at their dad with hope shining bright in their eyes.
"Yes I'm serious, you girls asked me months ago if I would consider getting you a pet. Well over those months I thought about it and talked about it with Reha and finally after see just how well behaved you girls have been lately and showing me how responsible you can be by helping to take care of Reha I've decided that you each deserve a pet." said Ren with a warm smile.
"Wait, each, you mean?" asked Annabeth.
"That's right Annie, you each get your own pet." said Ren. He was then tightly hugged by all four of his daughters.
"Thank you Dad!" said Annabeth.
"You're the best Papa!" said Luna and Solaris at the same time.
"I love you so much Daddy!" said Alessandra.
"I love you girls too, now come on let's go get some new members for the family." said Ren.
Ren and Reha watched stood at the counter and watched as the girls moved around the store looking at all the animals. Ren really hoped one of them didn't pick a bird because he knew those things were hard to keep alive. Alessandra was the first one to come back to them after making her choice, she had chosen a brown rabbit with a white tail and brown eyes. The worker behind the counter got the rabbit for Alessandra and then she and Reha went to get some other things so that the rabbit could live comfortably. Not too long after that Ren had to do the same with Annabeth who had chosen a gray kitten with white paws, Luna chose a German Shepard pup, and Solaris a chose Doberman pup. Once Ren had paid for everything they all loaded into the car and Ren drove home while occasionally looking back at his daughters playing with their new pets.
LATER THAT NIGHT 9 PM
Ren was in his night clothes sitting on his bed with Reha, in his lap was Alessandra in her night clothes. The three of them were waiting for Annabeth and the twins to finish their baths as Ren had told them that he had something he wanted to tell them before they went to bed. It wasn't too much longer before the girls came into the room in their night clothes with their hair being slightly wet.
"We're here Dad, what did you and Mama Reha want to talk to us about?" asked Annabeth.
"Just come sit with us girls, this is really important." said Ren. Annabeth, Luna, and Solaris did as they were told and climbed onto the bed and sat between Ren and Reha. "Girls I think it's time I've told you some things about our family…...and your mothers." said Ren shocking the girls.
Well everyone there you have chapter 1 of my new story. I hope you liked it, The next chapter will be about Ren telling the girls about their mothers and his side of the family and we'll see the Goddesses. I might add Hera to the harem later but I'm not sure as of right now. If you have a Goddess you want in the harem then please feel free to tell me.
Harem
Reha, Athena, Artemis, Hestia, Inari
Well that's it for now everyone remember to Fav, Follow, and Review and as always listen for when the Dragon Roars!
