Downloading Strawberries to Share: Ares’ Story (The Gods Made Me Do It 16)
“I am one of the few gods in the pantheon who wasn’t even given a wife in fiction because I was so horrible.”
Ares, ancient God of War and Courage, felt as if his life was in limbo. Nothing had changed in eons. His kin still hated him, he was still despised by anyone he interacted with... except for Hermes, but then he was friendly with everyone. But Ares was just marking each day with nothing to look forward to, or to enjoy. Until he got a text from his security company that was monitoring the cameras at his Boston house. What he saw on the feed was intriguing enough to have him thinking a spot of time on earth was a good idea.
"If I worried about things like that, I’d be sleeping under a rock and I’d never stick my nose out, even at nighttime in case the moon laughed at me.”
Marty, racoon shifter and eternal optimist had found a stash of strawberries. He knew he was taking a risk, he knew there could always be a chance he'd be run off from his little encampment, but those strawberries were too tempting to ignore. He didn't take them all - Marty believed in always leaving enough for others, but little did he know that those stolen strawberries would change his life in every way.
How on earth did I get friend-zoned when we’re supposed to be mates?
These two were a mismatch from the start, but the Fates always know what they are doing. Ares had a lot to learn about changing his attitude, and Marty was the perfect person to help with that. But even Marty had his limits. Would Ares drive his mate away like he had everyone else, or was Marty worth changing for? Maybe those strawberries were magical after all.
