Athena PoV

After seeing the happy family the supposed threat to Olympus had, I realized I wanted my own.

Badly.

After returning to Olympus and reporting my findings to the council, Poseidon visited my palace.

"Theeny," he greeted.

I couldn't help but smile at the nickname as I let him into my home. "What brings you here, barnacle beard?"

"The look in your eyes when you talked about the child," the sea god responded honestly.

A slight blush crept up my cheeks.

"Athena," he began hesitantly. "What are we? We spend time with one another. We hold each other and speak of intimate things, but only in private. You freeze up, blushing. You act like you're scared. I don't know how you feel, and I don't think I could ever figure out how you think. I just know that I like you."

"Poseidon," I whispered, processing his words. "You...you like me?"

He pulled me close, nodding. "I want to be the man that kisses you, that takes you on the cheesy dates and makes you laugh. The man you think about whenever Aphrodite talks about something naughty. The man that makes you feel sexual pleasure. I want to make you scream my name, and I want to protect you. I want you to hold, to keep safe, to make happy. I can see myself in bed with a woman, but if I think about it, that woman is you."

I was blushing very deeply now, biting my lip. "Poseidon, that's very sweet. Just, next time don't start with how bad you want me in your bed."

The sea god chuckled, flashing that smile of his that made my knees go weak.

I took a deep breath. "Poseidon...you're married."

"No, I'm not," he blurted.

I raised a brow.

"I stopped loving Amphritrite a very long time ago, but I didn't feel for anyone else. I hate being alone, so I waited," the king of the seas explained sheepishly.

I placed a hand on the back of his neck, leaning in and placing a gentle kiss on his lips.

A while later, I found myself enthralled in a book.

After finishing the short, five hundred page novel, I found out that Poseidon was still there, flipping through a book on marine life as he waited for me to finish.

"I want to make dinner for you," The god stated simply, setting the book down.

It was a long night.

Artemis PoV

I was at a meeting with Percy, and the other Generals were going over the plans one last time.

Percy was excluded from the planning because his attention was on his child and me.

After the meeting, many of my husband's coworkers complimented the baby.

Percy kept saying that Cassandra took after me, and I smiled.

The plan was simple. Go to Olympus. State our cause. Explain everything. Leave.

Percy kissed my forehead and the baby's, placing a shielding spell over us.

I took a deep breath, and we appeared in the throne room.

It was the summer solstice, and everyone was there.

Screaming at each other, arguing over the being that was Percy Jackson.

We waited calmly, playing with Cassandra as the Olympians began to notice our presence.

Athena was the first to greet us, commenting on how much the child had grown.

I smiled and nodded, the other goddesses gravitating toward the infant.

"What's the young one's name?" Hestia asked with warmth.

"Her name is Cassandra," I replied, tucking the corner of the blanket in. "She's seven weeks old."

"She's so cute!" Aphrodite squealed. "How many siblings will she have?"

I smiled. "A lot."

No attention was paid to the glares exchanged between my father and my husband.

"Perseus is the father, yes?" Hera clarified.

I nodded. "Yeah."

"Has she eaten any cereal yet?" Demeter asked.

I couldn't help but laugh at this. "She hasn't started eating solid foods yet."

I felt a presence behind the other goddesses, and Percy suddenly by me in a protective stance.

"Apollo," I greeted emotionlessly.

"You had a child with him," my twin commented, staring at the infant.

"You are her uncle, you know," I said suddenly.

Apollo hesitantly extended his arms, carefully holding his niece.

"She looks a lot like you," he murmured, handing the child back.

I nodded.

"Why is it you are here, traitor?" Zeus boomed.

"We are here to talk," Percy stated calmly.

"And bewitch the minds of the council members with your sorcery?" The king exclaimed.

I snorted. "Perseus has no power over magic, father. He once cast a spell to make a book levitate and had pink hair for a month."

"Hey!" My husband whined. "You said you wouldn't tell anyone! Besides, Hecate makes it look way easier than it actually is."

Zeus would have none of this.

He launched his master bolt, and there was a flash of light.

There was a loud clang, and the bolt hit the wall, pinned to the marble by Poseidon's trident.

"You shall not hurt them, brother," the sea god spat.

I smirked. My father was an idiot.

Percy stood by me, sword out with the tip resting on the floor.

As the king of the gods fumed, my father in law got off his throne, coming over to greet us.

"We will talk in detail later," the god stated.

I nodded, watching as the Olympians turned on Zeus, fighting against him.

Within five minutes, the lord of the sky was hanging by his foot, caught in the simple trap I had set.

Unfortunately for him, it was made with a celestial bronze wire.

Powerless, Zeus huffed. "I'll get out, and when I do, I'll punish you all!"

After much discussion, a leader was chosen.

Percy already had a stack of papers on his desk, much to his disdain.

That night, my husband opted for a night with family, holding me close as we waited for Poseidon and Athena to arrive.

Apparently, they'd been dating.

I got the door, and Poseidon immediately went over to his son.

Athena and I talked as the father and son caught up.

Before long, the sea god was being introduced to his granddaughter.

Percy hugged me from behind, kissing at my neck as Poseidon cooed my baby.

"She's beautiful," the sea god murmured in adoration.

"Just like her mother," my husband chimed in.

I kissed his cheek and took the baby back, smiling as she curled up in my arms. "Ma-ma," Cassandra giggled.

I smiled, cooing her as she continued to laugh.

As the night came to an end, Athena and Poseidon left, Percy, holding the baby as we bade them a good night.

After we put Cassandra to bed, Percy led me back to the bedroom, kissing at my neck some more.

"Percy," I murmured. "We shouldn't." "Why?" He asked. "Cassie won't be crawling out of her crib and watching us. The walls are soundproof."

I bit my lip. My husband had a good point, and I was horny.

"It's been a while since you've touched me..." I murmured.

My lover followed me to the bathroom, closing the door.
