Author's Note:

This is a continuation of the story,"Of Wine and War," by Tenshi no Kiri up to the 14th chapter(link: s/6222313/1/Of-Wine-and-War). After years of no updates I assumed it is safe to say her story is abandoned. There has been an update since this story has begun but we have permission to continue with this. For new readers, please read her chapters and then read mine because you have 14 chapters to catch up to.

I've also included a short summary of what happened in the first 14 chapters of the original story below at the end of this chapter (read that first if you're new).

Also, there are two author's for this story. LMFTFY: (no url) and Mickimoo:(link: u/6163798/)

Bright light streamed through my narrowed eyes. Confusion and pain hit me as I inhaled a short breath. I felt like screaming and began to panic as my lungs burned. A warm hand met the side of my face and I looked up to find a beautiful woman shoving a cup to my lips.

"Drink Percy, your lungs must not have fully healed with the first dosage," she said worriedly.

Afraid to breath, I readily swallowed her offering. Warmth spread through me as I immediately recognized the familiar taste of my mom's blue chocolate chip cookies. Thank gods for ambrosia I thought as I settled back into my pillow. It was after I settled down from my initial panic that I realized I had no idea where I was or who the woman was.

I looked around the big room. It was brightly lit with open bay windows displaying a perfect view of the clear blue sky. I was in a huge bed that must've been the size of two king sized beds put together, with lots of soft purple pillows and a thick warm purple comforter that covered my body. There were wine bottles strewn over the place, and walls were adorned with paintings of little satyrs eating grapes, and pictures of smiling chubby cheeked children with peculiar purple eyes.

Oh no. Dionysus.

"This is Dionysus's room isn't it?" I asked the woman who was observing me intently with light hazel eyes. Dread quickly spread throughout my body, and I felt my panic reemerging. Sure Dionysus had just saved my life from the completely insane Tityos that Ares had sent after me, but after being assaulted by the guy during one of his crazy episodes I didn't particularly feel safe in his presence, much less his bed.

She nodded her head but didn't speak. That's when I noticed how familiar she looked. She had big hazel eyes with long brown lashes, long wavy dark brown hair, pale skin, and she wore a silky white dress. I remembered I had seen her the night Annabeth and I had attended a party on Olympus after we'd both taken turns holding up the sky.

"You're Ariadne."

She nodded again and shifted her gaze to the big wooden doors across the room that suddenly slammed open.

"Hera is such an insufferable bi-!" Dionysus stopped when he saw me mouth agape and eyes wide open in his bed.

"Great, you're awake," he said grumpily.

He motioned towards Ariadne who quickly followed after him, both exited the room leaving me alone. I had to leave, the last thing I wanted was to be around either of them. Although, Ariadne hadn't seemed angry to see me and she didn't immediately punch me in the face like Pollux had, or yell at me for sleeping with her husband.

Ironically, she was the nicest immortal being I'd met in a while.

But still, the idea of even being in the same room with either of them filled me with dread. I moved the cover from my torso wincing at the amount of ichor blood that stained my once white t-shirt. I moved my legs across the bed and was happy to discover the leg which had been broken was only slightly stiff. I walked towards the window closest to me and my stomach flipped, the reason why the sky was so bright was because we were floating on a cloud. Imagine being in an airplane and looking down at the ground, now imagine that view from your bedroom window… As a guy whose father's sworn rival is the ruler of the skies, I can attest to it not being a good feeling.

I thought of my other options which were sadly too few. I had an emergency drachma in my pocket meaning I could call someone, but considering the only directions I had was to take a right at the big white fluffy cloud and go straight meant no one would be able to find the place.

My last option was to use the door and find either an elevator or magic carpet to get out of his house cloud and go back home.

Figuring I had nothing to lose, I slowly opened his bedroom door and peeked into the hallway. Wherever they had gone they'd left me completely unattended. I made my way down the hallway as quickly as my sore body would allow me. The walls were of course purple and had even more pictures of chubby cheeked purple eyed children.

I ran around looking for a way out but every door I'd open or stairway I went down led to just more doorways and stairways. There was no way his house could be this big, I thought. By now I was out of breath and seriously regretting my decision. I felt like I was close to passing out again, my lungs throbbed painfully along with my leg and head.

My world was spinning and to add to my luck, my legs decided to give out and I collapsed. Strong arms held me tight around my waist.

"You actually thought you'd just walk out of here," Dionysus said amused, "You do realize we are floating in midair."

My stomach churned, "Let me down, I'd rather jump out the window than be stuck here with you."

As if granting my wish his arms released me and I landed roughly on the floor. Wincing from the pain of the impact, I looked up to his cold glare and I felt a smidgen of guilt at my words. But, I still felt sick every time he touched me.

He snapped his fingers and I blinked to find myself in another bed. This one different than what must've been his personal bedroom earlier. There weren't pictures of his kids all over the walls and it was a lot smaller and less extravagant.

"You can go home tomorrow, but you still need to rest. You're not healing like you should be," he looked worried, "Rest for now and then get dressed. Dinner is at 5."

"I'm not hungry," I said stubbornly, "Take me home and I can rest there."

"Dinner is at 5," he repeated before vanishing.

Quick Summary of what happened in Of Wine and War for the lazy readers:

Ares (and Hera) plotted for a way to attack Percy. Ares ended up stabbing Percy with the venom of the Chtnonic Spirit. This would've caused Percy to die if Mr. D didn't "claim" him. Percy agreed to allow Mr. D to claim him, not knowing that by claim Mr. D meant have sex with him. Of course Percy was pissed off after the act but his bad fortune didn't end there. He was forced by Eris, Ares's twin sister, to kiss her. Mr. D showed up and was like, "I will punish you Theseus!," because something snapped in Dionysus head which made him go temporarily insane and think Percy was Theseus. He then raped Percy before realizing it was Percy he was raping and not Theseus. Theseus had been the demigod who fooled around with Ariadne before abandoning her and killing her little brother. After that Percy and Mr. D's relationship became very strained and Percy couldn't stand being around him. Mr. D felt bad but had trouble apologizing (although he did say sorry...). After that Percy was outed by Pollux, Mr. D's son, that he slept with Mr. D. The whole camp found out and Percy found it too awkward to stay there and decided to leave camp. Percy's mom and stepdad went on vacation leaving Percy alone. During that time Percy was attacked by Tityos who was sent by Ares as a way to get revenge. However Mr. D comes and rescues him. And that's where my story starts of. If you think this was interesting continue reading, and I hope I inspired you to actually read the full story because it is well written and full of drama.

Anyways, to the next chapter!
