Chapter 1 Athena
My eyes watered as my hired seamstress leaned behind me, pulling my vintage white corset on tighter. I gasped when she tugged a little too tight and it moved painfully over my hip. The thought of my dear Colon was the only thing that had kept me going this morning.
"Ooh god, is that not to tight, I feel like I am going to faint," I coughed and the Seamstress or Jenny just shook her head.
"No, you would have started to feel dizzy by now if it was to tight," She replied in her deep manly voice. "Do you want me to put the skirt on now?" I nodded in reply and she left briefly returning with the decorative heavy skirt. I lifted my hands over my head as she attached the skirt, I stumbled a bit but I managed to get to the mirror. I glanced up at myself, my wide turquoise eyes starred back at me. My dark red hair was pilled on top of my head with a few strands hanging down. She had also attached small see through blue beads to my hair in various places and they glinted magnificently in the morning light. I had some make up on but only enough to enhance my natural beauty or so they had said. Personally I always felt like a bit of plain Jane.
"I must leave now Athena but I will be back soon," Jenny murmured before she stepped out. I nodded at her before looking back at my reflection and I could have sworn I saw a flash of an absolutely gorgeous man standing behind me but I shook it of as jitters.
I jumped when my older brother walked in looking completely frazzled, his frantic eyes scanning my room before his brown ones locked with mine and he uttered in his pain filled deep voice.
"Athena, we will be ready for you soon," Before rushing back out again and for the oddest reason I doubted what he said.
Butterflies settled in the pit of my stomach at his words and I felt insanely nervous. I heard some muffled shouts and then a clear.
"What he can not be gone, let me look," My father shouted, my throat tightened at the desperation in his voice. I sat down choosing to ignore him, I was absolutely sure that my darling Colon would never leave me like this.
I perched on my vanity fussing with my dress, refusing to think about what was going to happen soon or God forbid tonight. I had never been one to have sex, much to most of my previous relationships dismay. I found it quite disturbing and the few times I had took part in the action I found it unsatisfying and unnecessary. If it was up to me, procreating wouldn't require such an unappetizing act. Most of my friends disagreed with me banging on about the pleasure and it making you closer to your partner what Bull Crap if that. Why would that of all things make you closer to your partner?
"Bah," I said out loud trying to shake of my worries. Some one knocked on my door and I let them in, it was my father his kind blue eyes watched me sadly as he waked in.
"Athena dear, you look lovely." He said and I looked up at my favorite parent, he had always been there for me when ever I had needed hi. Little did I know that after this conversation I was going to need him more then ever?
"Sit down," I sat glancing at my father expectantly.
"Colon, can not be found anywhere and I think that the bastard may have done a runner." My father growled, he had never been the type to beat around the bush.
"He must be back soon, there is still hours before the wedding." I gasped my blood running cold as lumps of bloody ice formed in my veins.
"No dear, we where moments away from the event,"
"What?" I asked in confusion.
"It looks as though it may be called of," He replied looking away from his gaze. My Whole body froze in disbelief the ice chunks forming into heavy icebergs in my chest.
Another knock sounded at my door, my father got up and opened it and I heard the hushed tones of my Aunt Mo outside.
My father walked back in, just as my ancient phone pinged with an SMS and with out thinking I picked it up, it was from Colon.
Athena,
I cannot carry out a relationship any longer; over the last few weeks of wedding planning I have come to realize that you and I are to different and no matter how many times I tell myself that I will love you some day. We both know that is a lie. I had tried to tell you but every time I tried to bring it up you would mention how happy you where or how much you loved me and I just couldn't bring my self to do it.
I am really sorry that you have to find out like this but I have fallen in love with another and we will be boarding our plane to Germany any minute.
Wish me luck.
Colon…
My blood boiled, the reign of those icebergs coming to a swift end, I through my phone across the room accidently hitting my father, who caught it and started to read his eyes flashing across the screen. This was meant to be the happiest moment of my life that the worst that I can remember. I felt murderous towards that… that whore. Tears streamed down my cheeks and I secretly hated myself for not noticing sooner. I hated every second that I spent thinking or loving him. I lifted my hand starring at HIS ring on my finger, I ripped it off of my finger bruising the skin and I threw it across the room. I buried my hands in my hair unable to stand the crushing grief, I pulled it out of its confines. Beads scattered around the room. I dropped to the floor, the uncomfortable position making my knees ache. I felt my fathers' presence behind me and he rapped his arms around me, offering a slightly awkward hug.
"Athena, Wake up, Athena," A deep voice whispered and I felt a warm breathe tickle my cheek as a hand skated along my thigh. Gasping I awoke with in a rather strong state of arousal, I sat up glancing frantically around for my invisible lover. I groaned sitting up feeling some what invisibly violated. I stood walking to my bay window. Someone had replaced my dress with pare of cotton PJ's, the cute pair with the Zombies from plants vs. Zombies scattered on it. I looked out my window, unusually fascinated by the gentle crash of the sea against the rocks that scattered the shore line. My gaze was drown just outside my window to a mesmerizing black shape that swirled just above the surf. All of a sudden I had the overwhelming urge to feel the cool breeze against my overheated skin and before I knew it my legs had taken my out of my front door, across my porch and I was now trudging slowly in the soft beach sand.
Yes, I know what you are thinking, what kind of loony goes out to the beach in the middle of the night, you never know who could be out there. Drunkards, rapist, Human traffic-ers or God forbid a giant sea monster that will claim my soul. But I wasn't thinking straight, you could blame it on the al al alcohol, but I have had known.
I curled my toes in the sand my long hair blowing in the wind. I stepped onto a rock, sitting on it comfortably, not caring that it was slightly damp and that there was probably some gross bug on it. My thoughts automatically went to Colon, consuming my mind and a tear fell, splashing into the sea.
I gasped as I thought of his caring hazel eyes and another tear fell.
Him loving another, kissing another and another tear fell.
Thoughts of his retreating figure as he boarded a plain with his arm around his new lover, a tear fell.
Of never seeing him again and two tears fell, dropping from each eye. I didn't notice but the sea beneath me, shimmered in anticipation, the black figure had drifted closer to my rock.
And finally I thought of never being loved again, I was the lonely, loser girl who was lucky to meet the man of her dreams and my seventh tear fell, splashing into the surf with a depressing brilliance. The black shape shimmered and sea swirled beneath me. Shocked my tears stopped as my eyes just about bugged out of my head.
The shape swirled drifting together forming just below the surface of the water. A gorgeous man appeared, his sliver eyes watched me intently as I studied his beautiful face. His long blond hair reached his shoulders; his strong jaw along with a straight nose framed his face. He was slowly rising out of the surf revealing chiseled abs with golden tanned skin, I mean seriously he either is a figment of my imagination or he has no life apart from going to the gym. He rose further and I noticed that he was gloriously naked, I blushed a deep crimson when I notice how impressively large he was, he is going to make some girl seriously hurt the next day.
I lifted my hands covering my eyes from his deathly handsome face.
"DO not hide your angelic face, from my gaze," His rich voice tickled my senses and I realized it was the same voice that had awoken my earlier. I lifted my hands away, refusing to look anywhere but the sky behind him. It made absolutely no sense but I felt strangely safe around this man, call me crazy because I have started to.
"What is your name, my lady," He asked and I finally summoned up enough courage to look at his face and his silver gaze locked with mine. I felt a shiver run down my spine at the unnaturalness of his eye colour and how they glowed disconcertingly. He was watching me intently.
"Athena Redford,"
"I have not been summoned by a Redford before, where do you hale?" Giving him an odd look, I answered.
"Umm here in Town," I said gesturing behind me not wanting to give my address to him. "What is your name?"
"Zale, my lady,"
"You said something about this summoning, have you bin at the bottle a bit?" I asked
"You did, my lady, Shedding seven tears into my waters, summons me to you." He answered in his proper way of speaking. Loosing my cool a lot, I glared at him. I had never been one to accept the supernatural.
"Bull Shit, who set you up for this, was it Colon…That bastard!" I shouted standing I began to pace. He followed and tried to engulf me in his arms but I pushed him away, with a great deal of effort from my side. I couldn't deal with physical contact so soon after being dumped and he was unashamedly naked.
"I no not of this Colon you speak of, lady. The water calls me; we must consummate our deal so I can return to the sea." He whispered and I jumped when I felt his breathe tickle my shoulder. I stepped away from him fixing him with a glare.
"Look, I need to get home, I have no idea why I came out here in the first place," I said absently waving goodbye to him. I trudge back to my house listening for his footsteps, making sure he doesn't follow me back home. I sighed when I heard known. Opening my front door, I walked to the kitchen, flicking on the kettle along the way.
I heard a rap on the door.
"My lady, I cannot leave until our arrangement has been fulfilled." He said and I jumped when I saw him leaning against me kitchen window, his breathe misting up the screen.
"This is getting ridiculous, I don't remember signing anything," I muttered to myself and then I raised my voice for him to here.
"What agreement, have I done anything legal, because I don't remember shit" I asked him stepping closer to my window.
"My lady you speak oddly, I am afraid I do not no of this legal you speak of," He said and just as I was about to answer and accuse him of mental disabilities, ooh and don't forget threatening him with the cops. A practically drunk crowd of people stumbled onto the beach; they laughed and pointed at my deliciously naked man. I felt a rush of unusual possession and protective instincts and I groaned as I opened my kitchens back door ushering in my odd perfect stranger. Alarm bells chimed in my head but I ignored them, I couldn't leave him outside for there ridicule.
I could always lock him in the bathroom and call the psychiatric ward; he seems pretty harmless despite his ample rippling muscles. Grabbing his hand I pulled him through the door, casting a glance around behind him, I closed the door. I turned back to see him fingering the light switch with a bemused expression and I tried with no luck to not stare at his delectably taught ass, restating the absurd urge to give the tanned flash a squeeze.
"I speak oddly, because buddy right now you take the cake for odd speaking," I said but sighed when he fixed me with that same frowning expression. I glanced at him, my gaze instantly going downstairs to his penis of GOD, it was one of those insanely awkward can't stop looking but desperately want to look away moments.
He was about o say something but I stopped him but I lifted my hand to silence him, despite my curiosity there was no way I can take him seriously in the nude.
"Hold it I am going to get you some pants." I said quickly turning to see if I had a stray pair of Colons lying around. I walked into my simple bed room, my large bed sat in the middle of the room, I moved over to my white dresser pulling out a pair of pants that I had bought to Colon but he had never warn. They looked perfect for Zale's larger size.
I walked back to see that he had no found my T.V remote and he was flipping it in his hand. It surprised me how confused he looked at such mundane things and how comfortable he seemed being but buck naked. I threw his the pants, he caught them and looked at the confused but pulled them on anyway.
"Sit, " I said and I flopped on the couch and he sat next to me, almost on top of me. He heated thigh was pressed onto my thigh and it was reeking havoc on my hormones. I faced him to tell him to move but I froze when I noticed how close his face was to mine and his gaze was glued to my lips, I licked them nervously and his gaze fowled the action hungrily.
"My lady the sea calls to me, we must consummate or deal." He said his rich voice smelt of fresh sea breeze.
"There it is again that deal thin, I do not understand it," I yelled loosing my cool a little. A bit taken a back he answered.
"We must make love or I cannot return to the sea… Was that not your intention when you summoned me?" He asked puzzled.
"What!" I spluttered, launching myself of the couch. "Rights that it, I have had enough of your crazy. Get out of my home." I finished and he got up looking oddly heartbroken he stood slowly his head bowed as he made his way to my front door.
"As you wish, my lady," He whispered softly as he shut my door and I felt a sort of emptiness in the place of his presence. Don't be ridiculous Athena Redford, I mentally chided myself.
