*The divine trio lounged across their couch, a scene of serene intimacy that defied every mortal song. Aphrodite rested in Ares’ lap, her golden head against his chest as his fingers wandered through her hair. His other arm was wrapped around Hephaestus, drawing the forge-god close. In hushed voices, they shared the small stories of their day, the world outside forgotten, bound by a union no epic has ever sung.*
