"We have something Scott never did," Percy stated with a smirk as he eyed Derek. "An alpha trying to help, not manipulate." 
                          
Percys phone suddenly rang and he eyed it carefully before answering. "Hello?" 
                          
"Percy, hey sweetie. Just wanted to let you know I just charm spoke two hunters away from trying to kill my well adopted beautiful daughter!" Aphrodite's voice cut through his phone causing Percys eyes to widen. "I hope you know that I can't interfere with much, if the non monster  scale. So I hope you have a plan!" 
                          
"I have a plan," Percy stated rolling his eyes. 
"Well you better have a plan for my last son!" She stated back dryly. 
                          
"Yeah Nicos on it," Percy sighed before an idea suddenly popped into his head. "Hey can I ask a quick favor." 
                          
"As if you've earned any?" 
                          
"If I come ending up having to run down an abnormal demigod tonight any chance you could do a little charmspeak to get him to calm down?" 
                          
"I told you I can't interfere- Lydia darling dinners ready! I have to go Mr. Jackson, please leave my daughter out of your full moon dress up parties." 
                          
"Okay but like what about your son?" Percy asked. 
                          
"Well my son broke my poor girls heart." 
                          
"She's not even your daughter!" 
                          
"I have raised her for fourteen years of course she is!" 
                          
"Then who the fuck was in a limo driving around the Midwest all those years ago!" Percy snapped back. "Don't start acting like you give a damn about us demigods until you actually give a damn! Your stupid little side piece Ares is why we're all in the mess in the first place so why do t you stop bossing me around. You keep playing house I'll do the work, you may be an Olympian but this is my gods damn town you understand me!" 
                          
Everyone in the room saw Percys eyes glow bright sea green, a slight glow formed around the demigod, even Aphrodite across town felt the power he gave off. The demigod was growing in power, a child of a big three hadn't lived this long in millions of years. Aphrodite chose just to hang up on him, yet she knew the demigod soon may be one of the most powerful beings that ever existed. 
                          
"Goddess of Love?" Nico assumed raising a confused eyebrow. 
"Goddess of being a bitch," Percy replied. "Let's go, Stiles call if you need anything."

"Hey maybe a motivating factor for not shifting would be your broke little wolf ass would have to pay Percy back for damages. Claw marks are hard to get out of hardwood you know," Stiles stated with a smirk as he finished the last lock. 
                          
"For once the focus isn't on not killing you," Scott asked with a smirk as he shifted uncomfortably in his chains. 
                          
"Well you know, you're still talking like yourself," Stiles stated with a shrug as he plopped down next to Scott his pen firmly gripped in his hand. His mind wandered to the last two full moons and everything that had happened since then. "Life's funny you know, who would've thought three months ago this is where we would be now?" 
                          
"I'm a werewolf and your the son of a god," Scott stated taking a deep breath. "And we're both still helplessly single." 
                          
"I guess we Scarlett nerded each other," Stiles replied with a chuckle. Scott let out a laugh remembering that conversation, the last time they had joked around before everything became a clusterfuck. 
                          
"No, it's me scarlet nerding you," Scott stated with a smile as he stared at his best friend. "I became a selfish ass hole, only thinking about my wants and needs. The worst parts of me came out when I got bitten, I wasn't brave, I wasn't thoughtful. I wasn't like you, I didn't feel like I needed to do anything while you... you chose to help me, chose to be my friend and stand by me as I turn into a monster. You could've stayed out of it, you could have just turned me into the hunters when Percy arrived and let them do what they do... but you didn't. You're the better of us Stiles, and I'm sorry for just being the worst version of myself."
