Artemis PoV

I hugged Percy tightly before leaning up to kiss him.

He pulled me into the kitchen and sat me on the cleared counter space before reciprocating the action.

He brought his hands to my face and caressed my cheek as he kissed me.

I pulled away to take a breath and he kissed my forehead.

"Welcome home," I greeted, kissing his cheek. "I missed you."

"I missed you too," he reciprocated, stepping back for me to hop off of the counter. "I just want to lay in bed with you and snuggle the day away."

I smiled and kissed his cheek again. "Maybe after we have dinner."

My boyfriend carried the hot dish out to the table and I brought the other necessary items.

We set everything up and started eating quickly.

I noticed that his free hand was quivering slightly and put mine over it. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah," he replied. "I'm fine. Getting used to not worrying about monsters at every moment is going to take some time."

"I'm sure there are things we could do to take your mind off of that," I suggested, nipping at his ear.

We continued to eat, and he explained that they had captured a strange creature formed from the remains of Titans and Giants.

"Hades probably meant that he was going to put the creature in the complex we're using to hold the mutated monsters," I guessed. "It's all very high tech and secure in a very isolated area."

The god pushed away his empty plate and pulled me close. "As long as I don't have to worry about it coming after you, all is well."

I smiled and kissed him lightly on the lips. "I trust you didn't cheat on me with Aphrodite while you were in Tartarus."

"The thought never crossed my mind," he answered honestly. "A few thoughts of that nature involving you did cross my mind though."

I felt my cheeks begin to heat and sat up in his arms. "I thought about you too."

He kissed me softly on the lips. "Do you want me to join you in bed tonight?"

I nodded and stood up. "I was actually thinking you could join me for a bath first."

Percy obediently followed me back to my bedroom and went to draw the bath.

I undressed and sat down on the bed, waiting for him to return from the bath.

The water hadn't been turned on yet and he stuck his head back out to the bedroom. "Hey, what kind of soap do..."

"Your plan didn't actually involve taking a bath, did it?" He asked, mentally ravaging my body.

I grabbed his arm and pulled him onto the bed. "Nope."

My boyfriend kissed me passionately on the lips as his hands wandered across my body.

I moaned lightly when he squeezed my ass and closed my eyes as his lips drifted down my neck.

He began sucking on the skin of my neck and chest just long enough to ensure a hickey would form before moving onto something else.

"Gods, Percy," I moaned. "Stop teasing me already!"

He fondled my breasts as he continued to kiss my neck and I bit my lip to keep from moaning.

The man dragged his fingers down across my stomach in a painfully slow manner and traced along my entrance.

I let out a quiet whimper from his teasing and he thrust a finger into me, eliciting a cry of pleasure.

I dug my nails into his back and moaned loudly as he thrust his finger in and out of me.

My boyfriend smirked and nipped at my ear before thrusting in a second finger.
