Kronos

Kronos opened his eyes to see that he was in Salazar's car with Rhea cuddled up against his chest. She was fast asleep and peaceful, her face was so relaxed. The titan lord ran his fingers lightly across her soft lips.

" You want me to wake them up?" Kronos looked away from Rhea to see Salazar. " Your demigods are asleep."

" Yes, wake them up and let me out of this thing." Kronos told him.

Salazar nodded and moved the front seat for the titan lord. Kronos got out carrying his sleeping wife; she shifted as he carried her but didn't wake. He places her in her chariot along with her camping ag.

Salazar had made the bag bottomless by using some magic from Hecate. The demigod went about strapping the lions the the chariot as a group of monster came into view. They snarled upon seeing Rhea and tried to enter the meadow. The meadow however kept they out and the tree began to glow as did her necklace.

Kronos left Rhea with Salazar as he want to speak with nightmares that had come to help them move Rhea. " You are not to touch her." He snarled at them.

" Why are we ringing her to the ship as an ally." One of them asked. " She is a traitor."

" Because her betrayal is justified. I betrayed her the day I started eating our children." The titan lord stated with a glare.

The monsters fell silent a his admission as did the demigods behind him. A smile sat on Salazars face as he relies why the gods had him give Rhea over to Kronos. Regret was powerful and no one had more to regret then the titan lord.

" Any of you touch her without me telling you to do so will be kill." He looked at both monsters and demigods alike before walking back to Rhea. He found that the lions were strapped to the chariot. The titan Checked on Rhea and moved her so that she wouldn't fall out. He looked out over his followers for a moment and then down at Rhea and back up again.

The monsters under his command glared at him for taking Rhea back; while the demigods seemed to be smiling to themselves. To the monsters he had show weakness, but the demigods saw it as something else. The Demigods saw a husband that was worried about his wife and that understood how he had wronged her.

" You and I are much the same." Luke stated thoughtfully. " We are our own worst enemy." The titan lord could hear the smile in the boys words, and knew that they were true.

Kronos took hold of the rains as the lions sprouted wings and took off. He smiled as the wind ran through his hair. Rhea's back rested against his legs as she continued to sleep. The titaness could sleep through a war if she wanted to. The titan lord looked to his right and found that his demigods had their own flying chariots. On the left were a small portion of the monsters under his command.

They arrived at the princess Andromeda about a half an hour later. The sun had just started to rise and Kronos remembered sharing many sun ups with Rhea. Most times she had been curled in his arms stark naked. A smile crossed his face at the thought of bedding her. It didn't seem like ad idea and it would get rid of the aching within him for a few hours.

A resounding yawn alerted him to his waking wife. Her timing was perfect as they had just landed on the upper deck of the ship. He set the rains down and got out of the chariot, giving her room to stretch and get up.

A lot of the male demigods starred as Rhea moved. She was still in her outfit from the day before. The titan lord was itching to take those shorts off of her but he had to deal with the lions first. Kronos wanted to growl at the oys for oogling his wife, lucky for them Rhea took care of it for him.

" I wouldn't stare at me if I were you." She told them plainly. A playful smile lighted her silver eyes in a way that made her look like Salazar.

" Why is that?" One of the raver males asked.

" Because I'm his wife." Rhea smirked pointing at Kronos. The titan lord turn just in time to see their fear. It was amazing how scared they were of him.

" Sorry M'lady." The whole male population of demigod within the ship stated in unison. The girl simply giggled at the boys. The demigods who had gone with the titan lord spread e word that Rhea was not to e touched. THe only one who got out of that new rule was Phoebe, because she was their sister.

" Here, let me get this for you." Phoebe smiled and took over the lions.

" Siser I can do it." He almost snarled at her.

" Brother, I can see how stiff you are as well as the bulge in your pants." Phoebe stated with a grin plastered to her face. " Go bed your wife."

Kronos stood there stunned for a moment before shaking his head. " You're lucky you're my sister otherwise I'd smite you."

" Being your sister didn't' help Rhea any." Phoebe shoot back at him causing him to flinch. What he had done to Rhea was a sore spot with all his siblings. They all hated what he had put her through. heck hated himself for it too.

" Go" Phoebe told him again. " Your damn lucky she's so forgiving."

Kronos left Phoebe with the lions and walk across the deck to were Rhea was standing against railing that lined the ships decks. SHe was looking out over the water with mild interest. " Do you remember the early days? The days when we formed two groups? She asked.

The titan lord looked down at her small hands deep in thought. " How could I ever forget our days in the wild lands of Grease." He answered " We were so afraid of each other that we arely interacted." Oh yes, the titan lord remembered when they had formed two groups, male and female.

The woman had lived in a meadow with in the wooded mountains. While e and his brothers had lived on the beach. Well Oceanus had never left the ocean, though he caught enough fish for them to trade with the girls had brought fruit and other things that had to be grown and managed.

Kronos remembered meeting with Rhea once a month and trading basket of meat for fruit. He smiled thinking about the sea shell jewelry he had made as a bonus for his sisters. Some had been meant for only Rhea and she had always known which ones were hers.

Rhea turned a looked at her husband and hen at the freaked demigods. " You don't smile around em much do you? She asked.

Kronos stepped closer to Rhea " Not like this." He whispered in her ear. His breath on her skin caused her body to throb. A shiver snaked its way down her back giving the titaness goose bumps.

" Wheres your room?" She asked more than a little breathless. This caused the titan lord to smile again, but this smiled was as wicked as it was seductive. His arms circled Rhea's waist before he kissed her.

The kiss was possessive and caused her to melt into his arms. her own arms found their way around his neck as her hand played with is sandy blonde hair. Kronos explored her mouth with his tongue as he backed her up against the railing. He moaned at the feeling of his groin pressed against her stomach.

" You better share." Luke growled within the titans mind. " This is as much your body as it is mine at the moment."

The titan lord growled ignoring Luke for the moment as he slung Rhea over his shoulder. He need to get her to his room and fast. A shiver ran up his spine a the feel of Rhea's tongue on the small of his back. Picking up his pace they made it to his room.

Kronos slammed the door open and stormed in. Dropping Rhea on the bed he quickly shut and locked the door. If anyone but Luke disturbed him the wouldn't live to see lunch. The titans entire body ached for Rhea with a throbbing need.
