《The war of the Gods》Apollo and Artemis(part 4 )
Advertisement
As Reece and the twins spoke, Apollo became more and more infatuated with the boy. Reece told them of his love for horses which enticed the twins into a frenzied discussion about horsemanship and Reece told them about his grandparents stables he was due to inherit. He didn't seem too eager to take on the family business though then the topic of conversation turned to dancing, Reece's true passion. He was a ballet dancer first and foremost. That's when Artemis suggested that Reece teach Apollo to dance. Apollo disregarded this idea in favour of watching Reece and Artemis take the dance floor. Take it they did. Reece was the perfect lead and again everyone watched them with envy. Finally Reece announced that he had a class at 10 am in the morning and it was getting late.
"Let me drive you. Forget calling for an Unner or whatever they are." Apollo suggested.
Reece smiled that smile at him. "Uber and I could never ask you to do that but I would love to keep in touch." He pulled out his phone for the number exchange.
"Don't be silly. You're not asking. We're offering and we promise we won't kill you." Artemis took his phone and entered Apollo's number into it. She was far more proficient at these new technologies than Apollo was.
"Well now I feel completely at ease about the ride home." Reece answered sarcastically. Artemis laughed and gave him back his phone then took his hand to lead him out with Apollo following. Outside the club a feeling of breaking free from deep, dark water broke over Apollo. The club was tiny, crowded and hot. It felt more like a prison than an escape. The twins didn't often venture from their beautiful estate. They went to work then went home unless one of them had to venture to other venues outside their estate. Tonight was an exception and Apollo was glad Artemis had dragged him out.

As the three made their way to Apollo's car just a whiles down the street talking animatedly about future ideas for get-togethers, a commotion across the street in a dark alley caught their attention. A group was crowding around a pair. One of the group slammed a young blue eyed youth into the wall. His friend stepped forward and was punched to the floor. The blue eyed black haired boy fell to his friend's side and that's when the group began beating on the two on the ground.
Reece gasped and made a run for the alleyway into traffic. "Reece!" Apollo's heart jumped in panic and the twins followed but this time the cars stopped suddenly in their approach on either side of the road to clear the way for them. By the time they reached the other side if the road Reece had been grabbed and held so the leader of the group could lay punches into his pretty face. Before Reece was struck Apollo's hand clamped on the leader's fist. The male's face twisted in pain as his fist was crushed by the god. Artemis grabbed the hair of the two men holding Reece's arms and she yanked them backward so they hit the ground hard. Reece blinked in confusion then rushed over to the boys that he had risked his life for. The last three men rushed at the twins as their leader began to scream. Bones cracked and it was clear that Apollo was making the hand that was meant to bruise up Reece's face unusable. Apollo kicked the leader at his feet knocking him unconcious like the two at Artemis's feet and grabbed one of the advancing men then threw him in the wall like he was feather pillow. The other two stopped and stared then twisted and ran for their lives.

Reece stared at Apollo and Artemis in utter horror. Apollo rushed toward him and reached out to cup his face but Reece scrambled back and covered his friends staring up at Apollo looming just inches away.
"Whatever you are, leave me alone."
"Reece..." Apollo's voice was gentle.
"Leave me ALONE!" Reece screamed. Apollo pulled back suddenly. The scream made the black haired boy moan and lift his eyes. They were red now. Not blue and there were fangs peeking through bloodied lips.
"Jason..." Reece whispered and craddled the boy close then leaned in and kissed his lips. Apollo's eyes narrowed as he came to his feet. If it was not for Artemis's touch, Apollo would have ripped that vampire to pieces. He wanted to....

Dark Lands: The Exile and the Prince
A short time has passed since the siege on Ruined Home has been lifted and as the survivors of the battered encampment slowly begin to rebuild their new home, Aurelius has returned from a failed troll hunt. Yet despite the battered prince’s failures, he has set into motion a series of events that will forever change his life. Meanwhile, Iskra has found herself at the helm of a far more favorable position and begins to forge a path that will lead her towards the first steps of a long road of revenge. Author’s Note: This is the direct sequel to the first Dark Lands story and as time goes on I will update the synopsis to help bring further detail about the story. For now however, I hope you all enjoy what is about to be written. Eight Years Arc: Eight Years have passed since Aurelius and Iskra have first met one another, and a lot has changed since then. The vast majority of Aurelius’ family has been slaughtered by the hands of none other than his oldest brother, a man that the golden haired prince had spent the past several years to hunt down and kill all in the name of vengeance. Upon his return, the kin-slaying prince has found that some things have changed during his absence. Iskra, his first wife and love of his life, has proclaimed that she no longer cares about the events that have been unfolding in her former homeland for the last several years and states that she is solely focused on raising her children. Yet it is through learning that the High Elves have taken a keen interest in the once magically-absent lands of Ranislava that Aurelius decides that action must be taken and thus he journeys south to learn more about what his distant kin are up to in such a backwater region of the world. Who he will meet and what he will do will turn the tides of fate, but in whose favor is something that only the Gods will know. (The Eight Years arc is something that was designed to be written in a way where people don't have to feel the need to go back to the very beginning of the Dark Lands story in order to know what is going on or who the characters are.)
