Ares has been given strict orders.
bring the girl in, quick and quiet, Zeus had implied.
he was supposed to drop her off to Zeus and forget all about her existence.
Ares didn’t know why Zeus wanted the goddess, but the goddess was young. she was new to the family, her mother being Aphrodite and her father Hephaestus.
it wasn’t hard too get her, the little goddess was absolutely tiny and it took less than a minute too snatch her.
only fourteen years old and still had a trillion more to live. he wondered how long it would take for her father Hephaestus too notice she was gone and how angry he’d be.
he assumed it was so Zeus was the first to marry her which he couldn’t tell if he was okay with or not.
she was practically a baby and it just felt wrong.
she sat in the middle seat in the back, still knocked out from whatever drug Ares had given her.
Ares thought the girl was pretty, but from watching her from before he’d knocked her out she seemed quite shy.
he glanced in the review mirror as she began to stir a little too wake but her hands were tied behind her back and her ankles were tied together.
Ares considered gagging her, but he didn’t see a point so he just stuck with a blindfold. he knew if she spoke too much though he wouldn’t hesitate too.
her voice rang out through the car, soft and sweet and a little groggy from just waking up. for some reason he felt like protecting her from that alone.
he knew what his father was like and didn’t want this little girl to be in bad hands and he knew that’s what zeus was.
and every time Ares imagined one of his daughters in the situation a pain would strike through his chest.
