Jamie Campbell Bower - Better Man/ Ruelle - Live like Legends
Iapetus p.o.v
The cells contain most of the gods and demigods, all three layers of the cells. The lowest cells are the ones Kronos likes to torture, or do things for his own amusement. None of us are allowed down there, and I have a feeling none of my siblings want to go down there.... well maybe Hyperion, but he was crazy insane type of guy. A lot of people would call him Gyrfindor for that.
So that was one of the reasons I was walking down to Kronos' Detention Level and to the cell door and witnessed Percy almost at his breaking point. He was standing there with his arms around his father crying, and it breaks my heart, the one I thought I had lost.
I can't show emotions, and he mustn't know. Emotions lead to weakness and I need to be strong, especially with the FireNote Kronos got the other day...
"Get up HERO; you have a meeting with my brother." I sneer and yank the door open. It clangs and hits the wall, I ignore as it hits my back.
"No, please Uncle! A few more minutes!" Poseidon cries and holds firmly onto Perseus.
I feel my heart wrench, I can't, but I have too.
FUCK
With a growl, I stalk in and yank the boy.
"I can walk!" he snarls and wrenches his arm out of my grasp. I smile and walk behind him.
"Any noise and he is dead. Kings Orders," with that I shut the door and walk out.
"You won't kill them will you?" He asks, and I scowl.
"Keep walking."
"I saved your life; can't you at least be nice?" Percy asks wiping the back of his hand to get rid of any evidance of tears.

"YOU TOOK MY MEMORIES! I FINALLY JUST GOT THEM BACK! MY LOYALTY IS TO MY KING, AND IT SHOULD BE YOURS TOO!" I keep up my cover and see his head duck in fear.
"My, my, my brother what is with your temper?" I look up and see my brother.
His golden eyes are on Percy. Like they always are, but I pointedly block that thought out of my head, none of the Titans can be nice or care for Percy until he swears his loyalty to Kronos and the castle. Otherwise we could get hurt in the process.
"Are you sure, great uncle? Come on gramps, and he said you want to talk to me?" Percy asked, his voice going cocky, what Annabeth had called his warrior voice.
"More than talk...." Kronos smirks and takes ahold of Percy's arm.
"No, I can't betray my family. And that isn't what I want." the sea Titan denies.
"Sure?" I watch as Kronos walks up to the immortal, yet not god, or titan: His hands wander lower, and I see Percy's hesitance, his will crumbling, the longing in his eyes, yet the determination.
"Y-yes...?"
"I thought so, Iapetus you can go; I think I need to talk to Perseus." Kronos smirk goes into a lazy smile.
"Kronos, please...please stop. I don't love you." I hear, and I flash out.
Percy was a mess of emotions, so hard that I got lost. He was projecting them so loud I doubt he could feel or see any other emotions, the longing, the lust... Kronos was playing with his loyalty, and that always hurt the one with the flaw the most.
I wanted to help, yet I can't, I can only do so much.

Romance - plus Judgemental Powers? Completed
Blue was a red headed boy who desperately wanted a girlfriend. So he asked the class beauty to walk home with him. She very nicely refused him. So he asked another girl in the same class, one with an average rating in the social status ranking. She also refused him. So, still desperate, he thinks – “I’m probably at the bottom of the ranking for boys in this class, so how about I ask the girl who is also at the lowest ranking?” The girl’s name was Pink. She said yes. Gulp. “What do I do now?” was his reaction. Well, obviously, have a romance. And, along the way, they get one hell of a lot more than they bargained for. Like, for example, supernatural Judgemental Powers. How did they get those? And that was only the start. The two most insignificant students in their class become famous. Not just in their class or even in their school, but to the population at large. They end up breaking and making the top politicians and rulers of their country. But finally, of course, they get what they wanted. A committed relationship. This is an Esmeralda the Angel of Death story. It follows on from my previous novel “Maybe it would have been a good idea not to wish for a harem?”, however it is a totally separate story with only a minimal overlap in the characters. There is no need to read the first story to enjoy this one. Although you just might enjoy the first story also… This story has multiple characters and multiple Points of View. Every POV change is clearly marked with a new header. Inside each POV section, the POV character’s thoughts are in italics. This story has about 105,000 words (about 380 RoyalRoad pages). It is fully written and proof read (the poor man’s proof read using Word). It has 25 chapters, and will be published at the rate of roughly one chapter per day.
