"why hello my son" I walked into my room to see my mother nemesis 

"how could you do this to her?"

"you did say anything"

"it wasn't mine to give!"

"details, details. dami I made your life better, so I make her life much, much worse! simple as that!"

"how can you even take a gift like that?"

"Tyche owed me a big favor, she couldn't refuse" my mother smirked "don't you just love promises on the river Styx? unbreakable oath I'd like to shake the hand of whoever decided that, you think it was Gaea or Tartarus?"

"no mom, no. you can't just do that take something from me yes! but not from her!"

"no offense damien, but you don't have anything worth an arrow of eros, his help isn't exactly a dime a dozen"

"ca-can you take it back?"

"the spell stealing her luck?" she sighed "yes I suppose I can, but it won't be free"

"what do you want?" I glared 

"well lets see, for starters she wont love you anymore I'm definitely not giving you love for free"

"fine" I say though I was practically crying inside "fine"

"and" she smiled "how about your left arm!"

"what!" I gasped "you gave Ethan the ability to change the future for no more than a eye!"

"well Ethan was working for a cause I believed in, plus your kind of ticking me of"

"you're going to take my arm because I'm 'ticking you of'?!"

"yes, yes I will"

"fine"

"seriously" she raised her eyebrow

"I said FINE!" I yelled 

she smiled with a malicious look in her eye "very well" and a sword materialized from mid air and I reluctantly raised my arm looking away.

"STOP!" Chiara ran into the room and stood between me and my mother 

I lowered my arm "you can remove the love spell mother"

"I did" she frowned "I removed it the second you agreed"

"but then?"

Chiara smiled at me "I love you without a spell Damien" and leaned forward kissing me. she kissed me. without me magically making her! score!

"yes. yes fine" my mother interrupted "now your arm" she pushed Chiara away from me and sliced at the top of my arm, around where the sleeves of a T shirt ends after two seconds of agony, she waved her arm and my skin grew together leaving me with a skin layer coating the arm stump

"NO!" Chiara yelled and burst out crying "its all my fault!" 

suddenly a pink glow appeared and white feathers flew around (what the styx is happening?) "never fear Aphrodite is here!" a beautiful woman suddenly appeared she looked just like chiara just older

"Chiara, is this your sister?" I asked

"awwwww you see me as Chiara!!! you two are so cute" Chiara-look-alike waved her hand and my arm reappeared

"you can't do that" mom yelled 

"sorry sweetie but you got your price, btw those creepy smiles are giving you frown lines, if I were in your shoes I would like, stop" 

glaring at each other the two of them shouted "cover your eyes!" I did, felt a searing heat and peeked through my fingers to see an empty cabin except me and Chiara

"um what just happened" I asked

"no idea, just shut up and kiss me"

"gladly"
