Luke and Thalia are at the Lunch table, invisible servants are serving them food, just like on Calypso Island. Thalia remembered one of the hunters telling her about it, she was in love with one of the men that landed there, a long, long time ago. Well things could not get any creepier, Thalia thought. Luke would shoot her smiles as much as he could and she would just glare back.

Thalia couldn't help but wonder about this place, last time she was here Luke fought her and she had to push him off the cliff, she hated every second of that. But she hated Luke more, she had wanted him dead. She wanted him gone, out of her life. Now here he is eating right in front of her. Ugh I have to get out of here, now! Thalia thought again.

"Thalia? Are you ok?" Luke asked, looking at her strangely.

She glared at him again and stood up; once she did he grabbed my arm. "What now? I have to ask your permission to leave a table?" Thalia growled.

"Yes," He said looking her strait in the eyes. She glared at him and pulled her wrist away.

"I'm going to my prison-I mean room." She sneered.

Once she got into her room (if you can even call it that) she fell right on her bed. Thalia took her pillow and threw it across the room. She watched it hit the wall and fall to the floor, crumpling onto the ground.

She needed to get out of this stupid place.


Luke walked into a hidden room behind a statue, of what the statue was he didn't know. Standing in front of him was a giant thrown, Luke looked up at Kronos, and bowed.

"My Lord," Luke said, head still down.

"Raise," Kronos said. "Did you get the girl?"

"Yes, what is my next mission, my Lord?"

"You will make her fall in love with you. When she does the prophecy will be ours, she will turn sixteen and we will take over the world." The Titan of time had an evil look on his face, one that made Luke cringe.

Luke didn't jump on the idea like he did when he was told to go get the girl. Kronos sneered and looked down on him again. "If you can't carry out the mission I will get someone who can."

"What if she won't love me back?" Luke said talking for the first time.

"Then you will make her love you."

"Your wish will be followed through as you wish." Luke said as he walked out the hidden chamber. He walked to the room he knew Thalia had stormed off to. When Luke walked into her room he saw her asleep on her bed; her legs pulled up to her chest. He sat down on her bed, looking down at her. He saw her cheeks were tear stained, he unconsciously brought his hand down and creased her cheek. She stirred in her sleep but just moved closer to him, still asleep. He smiled and got on his knees, coming face to face with her.

"Thalia, I don't want to hurt you, I want you to really love me. You just have to trust me, please." He knew she couldn't hear him but it was worth a try.

Luke sighed and gave her a kiss on the cheek, and stood up going to his room.


Luke knew he had to make Thalia love him but he just didn't know how. He wanted her to love him, real love, not forced love. He walked out of his room and into to Thalia's, he heard the shower running so he sat on the bed and waited. When he heard the water turn off he stood up to see Thalia standing in the door way, wearing her old clothes she found from her closet. That was one of the last outfits she wore before she was turned into a tree; Luke noted.

"What are you doing in my room?" She asked, cleaning some water from her face with a towel.

"I came to get you for dinner, you barely ate your lunch." Luke said.

"What now? I can't even walk without your help?" She asked anger oozing out of her words.

Luke glared at her and turned his head. "You are lucky I actually let you walk freely and not on a chain."

"I am eternally grateful." She said with sarcasm oozing out of her voice now.

Luke looked away in anger. "Meet me for dinner in ten minutes. Don't be late, Hunter."

His words stung her when he called her Hunter. She nodded with a scowl on her face. Her face got soft –as soft as it would ever get with him around- when she remembered her plan. "Of course, Luke. Whatever you wish." She said as she looked into his eyes, putting on a fake smile. She walked towards him and took his hand, leading him to the Dinner table.

Her plan is now a go, she will pretend to fall in love. She will fake everything, just like always.

She needs to get out of here…now.


Next Time on Falling without Grace: Luke finds a way to Thalia's heart (kind of) He might have found the way to her heart but he is still so far from getting it.
