Inara started putting Persephone to bed; it had been almost two years since their birth and the children were already walking. Thesighes was also talking as he roamed the house daily saying 'daddy' on end. Of course Achilles was off at war with a country Inara had never heard of so it was her and the kids, with only a few servants to help her. She didn't mind though as she quite enjoyed playing with the kids and watching them grow.
She began to sing Persephone's favorite lullaby.
Starting from here, let's make a promise
You and me, let's just be honest
We're gonna run, nothing can stop us
Even the night that falls all around us
Soon there will be laughter and voices
Beyond the clouds over the mountains
We'll run away on roads that are empty
Lights from the sunroom shining upon you
Nothing can stop us, not now, I love you
They're not gonna get us,
Nothing can stop us, not now, I love you
They're not gonna get us,
they're not gonna get us
They're not gonna get us
She more whispered the words as Persephone's eye's fluttered shut and into sleep. Inara placed her in the cradle and walked out quietly, kissing her sons head when she left. Inara then went to bed herself.

The next morning Achilles came home, his son and daughter ran to greet him as his wife stood by the door way. Achilles walked up to her, both kids in his arms, and kissed her lips.
"I missed you", he whispered.
He then bought the children inside.

After Achilles had put the kids to sleep he joined his wife in their room. Inara was wearing a white silk bed robe and had her perfect curls hanging by her shoulders. She was sitting at her mirror when Achilles entered. He didn't look to happy.
"Agamemnon was acting strangely happy", Achilles said as he looked at the floor.
"How so? I've always seen him as a weirdo"
"Well I thought he hated me…I have a feeling he's up to something"
"What like an attack?" Inara asked.
"Yes, he said he'd come visit us soon", Inara walked over to Achilles and sat on the bed next to him
"Well we can take him, I doubt one fat man is a problem for us", Achilles chuckled lightly.
"I still want us to be safe; I think I'll send the children to a nearby town, just so I know they're alright"
"They'll be safe with us, you need not worry"
"Inara I will send them just be thankful I'm not sending you too", Achilles snapped.
"They are my children too; I don't want some strangers looking after them", Inara protested.
"Maybe but I will have last say", Achilles lied back and turned over to sleep. Inara got up to do the same and the couple spent the night sleeping in opposite directions. After already spending months away from each other.

The next morning Achilles arranged for the kids to be taken by one of his myrmidons to a near by town and by late afternoon the kids had left.
"This is a mistake!" Inara protested.
"Inara I have heard word of Agamemnon's departure and I want my kids to be safe, I can barely look after you let alone two small children", Inara could hear the hurt in his voice and realised how hard this was for him so she took his hand and lead him up the stairs to their room.
"What are you doing?" he asked.
"What I should have done when you got here", Achilles face turned to a wicked smile as he chased his wife up the stairs before tackling her on the bed. They then washed away all their troubles with some much needed love.
