ARES
Catherine shivered as I traced my finger on the small bruise on her back, faint and barely visible.
"Does it hurt?"
"Bearable..." she said, turning to face me. "Athena and I kicked ass."
I want to show how proud I am, but my anger wasn't letting me. All I could do was remain stiff and watch her try to crack me.
"He told me someone wants me dead. My guess is the same person who caused the car accident months ago. Do you have any idea who would go far for something like this…?"
I peeled my eyes away from her, reaching for the shampoo to wash her hair.
"Ares… Don't you think it's time you stop leaving me in the dark?"
I sank my fingers into her hair to massage her scalp, whilst trying to calm myself in some way. This helps.
Nico explained on the phone. Catherine and Athena gave him a good beating, but unfortunately, he slit his throat. Covering up his employer more important than his life.
