Titans Rising – The Fox and the Love God
Clio would never leave Duck behind, not like this. The poor fox appears terrified, frantic.

His heart’s desire practically screams at me, to find someone to love, who loves me.
Technically, we met because she stole my car. I mean, you didn’t expect me to go through legitimate channels to find an assistant, did you?
The scythe cutting through the limb, the blood, the feathers falling from me, the agony, the feeling of horror, despair, betrayal.
“If I’m such a delight, why didn’t you tell me you were planning on moving back home? And that I had to drag my ass out here?”
Because there’s only one place in the OA with so many peacocks, and it’s a place all gods know never to trespass without an express invitation.
“If you hurt my mother, I’ll kill you. I don’t care if the sun drops from the sky.”
My father’s eyebrows shoot up at the statement. “Why do I feel your grandfather is somehow involved in that decision?”
It’s probably the first time I’ve ever hugged him; the god of war was not known for being the most paternal of figures.
The door slams shut behind me and a gun’s hammer cocks, the feeling of cold steel sitting at the back of my skull.
This is what’s pulled me home. My father’s broken heart. His lost love.

There was the sound of roaring in my ears, and I rubbed the heel of my palm over my heart. Something terrible has happened. Something relating to love.
