Megara giggled as she ran her hands over the muscular bare chest of Daedalus. His arms were wrapped closely around Megara's curvy body. It had been there second night together. Daedalus stirred as Megara's gentle touched tickled his nerves. Daedalus pressed his lips upon her swan-like neck. Megara was pleased with his soft lips.
The rose-colored bed on which the two lovers lay was made of fine silk. The dark of the night was entrancing the two into a realm of sleep. Laid gently in each other's arms, Megara and Daedalus fell asleep only to wake early the next morning to an unexpected raid.
The dawning morning sent the rays of sun bright over the horizon, waking the night dreamers. Megara and Daedalus were beginning to open their eyes to the light of the morning as a loud knock was heard on Megara's front doors. Startled, Megara jumped out of the warm bed. Daedalus remained still, watching his lover. Megara stumbled into her robes and made for the door.
As soon as the wooden door was pulled open, Megara flushed. Red filled her face. The recognized face embarrassed her, especially in only her robes. Hades was there, standing in her doorway, a disapproving look on his face.
"Helios has risen early." It was a simple sentence, a sentence for those making small talk, not for those with a long history.
"Yes," Megara looked down, avoiding the god's eyes.
"How was Daedalus?" Hades raised an eyebrow, his dark eyes accusing Megara.
Megara played with her curly brown hair as she thought of what to say.
"You think because you made Hercules mortal that you may go off, sleeping with whomever you please?" He spoke calming, though his eyes showed otherwise.
Megara sighed.
"Come now, I have work for you." Hades turned from her, when, finally, Megara spoke.
"You have always told me love was nothing, I agree with you. But that doesn't mean I can't have fun. You act as though I'm deluding you when I sleep with different men. Persephone is of satisfaction to you, you have told me this before. Do not act as though I owe you a service."
"Do not speak Meg." Hades ignored Megara's lecture, as he pulled her with him to the Underworld.
