Chapter 1 Birthday Party or Not?
Its been 4 years since Stacia's birth and Set and I couldn't be more happy. She is spoiled and has Set and my father, Zeus, wrapped around her finger along with her Aunt Artemis, Bethany, Seth, and of course me, but her dad is the one that has her heart. Ever since she was born she has had it and I'm happy that he is tender and shows his good side like he has for Bethany and me. I would not change the past and I have no regrets marrying him and I hoped that nothing would tear us apart. I hoped but I didn't know what the fates had in store for all of us, yet.
"Mommy." Stacia said, appearing in Set's and my bedroom. I was just setting my new daughter, Anna, who is a month old, down for her nap.
"Ssh. I just put your sister down for a nap." I said.
"Sorry mommy." Stacia said, coming over and I picked her up, kissing her check.
"What is it?" I ask.
"Sissy is here with Ari." Stacia said.
"Oh good." I said. I come into the living room to see Bethany with Ari.
"Hey mom. Should we send our kids to father so we can talk?" Bethany asked. I give a nod. Stacia and Ari smiled and disappeared to go by Set. I sat down with Bethany on the couch.
"So who's coming to the party?" Bethany asked as she took the cup of tea that my Kori brought to us.
"Thank you Natalie. Its gonna be a small get together of friends and family. My side its Artemis, my father, Acheron and his family, Katra and her family, and Julian and his wife. Set's side. Its You and your family, Seth and his, and Zakar." I said.
"Yeah a small get together at least." Bethany said, sipping her tea as Natalie leaves the room.
"Which is fine with me. Set's fine with it." I said. Bethany nodded as Artemis appeared in the room.
"I hope you don't mind me interupting." Artemis said, sitting down.
"No. Your always welcomed here." I said.
"Good. So when's the party again?" Artemis asked.
"Tomorrow." I said.
"On Stacia's birthday. She is gonna be spoiled by me and your dad." Artemis said.
"I think Set and I will be the ones spoiling." I said.
"Your right there." Set said, appearing with the kids.
"Mommy." Stacia squealed and appeared in my arms. I kiss her forehead as she cuddled to me.
Bethany and I got to cooking dinner for everyone. I heard Anna crying for attention. Set disappeared and appeared back with a happy Anna in his arms.
"She's also a daddy's girl." Bethany said.
"He's got three of them now. You and the girls." I said.
"Its a shocker. You and I hated each other before me and Styxx fell in love, but here you are as my step mom. I am glad its you that my father fell in love and married.
You make him happy." Bethany said. I kiss her forehead.
"You children make him happy as well and I am glad I got a big family and grandchildren that I consider family." I said. Bethany smiled. She knew I was right.
Azura's prove. One of the servents came in dragging one of Athena's Kori.
"Natalie. What a wonderful to see you." I said. Natalie brushed the hand of the servent out and I shooed him away.
"I brought the information you wanted." Natalie said.
"Good. What is it?" I said.
"The party will be held tomorrow." Natalie said.
"Good. Servent. Take Natalie to Noir. I think he's been needing some relief before we send him to our enemy." I said. Natalie was lead out. I smiled. My plan was gonna go in motion.
Athena's prove. Set was putting Stacia down for bed. I rocked Anna to sleep and she soon was asleep. I get up and put her in her bassinet. Set came in.
"We got a long day tomorrow." Set said.
"Yes we do. So lets go to bed." I said, pulling my husband to our bed and we curled up to sleep.
The next day. Everyone was in the living room of Set's and my house on the ocean in Greece. It was a present from father after the wedding. Stacia was sitting on the floor with her cousins. Mia was smiling as she watched her cousin. Ari, Ambrose, Lydia and Seth's son, and Acheron's kids were sitting on the floor with her. I leaned against Set as we watch and talked with the adults.
"She's got a lot this year." Zeus said, watching her eyes light up with the presents.
"She's spoiled." I said. Anna appeared in Set's arm and he held her close. I kiss the top of Anna's head. I caught Artemis's eye and smiled. She returned it. Stacia finished and she ran up to me.
"Mommy. Can I play with my toys till dinner is read..." An explosion stops her short and I pulled her against me and shielded her from the explosion. I turn and saw a face we knew.
"Knock knock." Azura said, with an evil smile and all hell broke loose in my home.
