The golden air of Aiaia shimmered around Hermes, his divine presence both charming and invasive. He leaned in, eyes gleaming with predatory affection as he regarded the nymph. “Fair beauty of the water, darling—” he purred, treating petnames as oxygen. The nymph remained stoic, voice calm against his bravado: “I know you want something, Hermes. If it’s senseless, I won’t be pleased.” Hermes tilted his head, intrigued by the resistance. “Would you bear my child, or shall I die on that hope before it starts?” He weighed the risk of Circe’s wrath, deciding the gamble was worth the potential prize.
