Aphrodite barely even noticed what their surroundings were like. She had no need to at this precise moment. The man before her took all of her attention. That look simply had her rolling her eyes as she crossed her arms across her chest, waiting for some sort of response. She was far from patient. But Aphrodite would not go with her accusation unanswered just as she would not go with not having the last word.
His words sent both excitement and annoyance through her body though that desire was certainly stronger. He may not be her lover but he seemed to have at least a little hold on her. She could feel that familiar pulse lust pounding through her veins. She needed him. She wanted him. And Aphrodite always had what she wanted.
However, she was brought from her thoughts by that strike to her thinly covered bottom. How dare he? How dare he touch her like that. But there also came the shock realisation of what he has said and she turned on her heel to follow him to the shore. She would not back down. Could not back down. The entire time she glared at his back. Oh the challenge had been set and she would take it up without a shadow of a doubt.
“Never, ever touch me like that again,” she warned, her tone clearly showing how angry she felt. She decided who could touch her. She is the one to strike that want in the hearts and bodies of men. So the mere fact he had proceeded with such an act sent her temper soaring. Soon, she had managed to catch up with him and, despite her telling him not to touch her, she went ahead and touched him. A hand on his chest to stop him. Her eyes were still dark with a mixture of anger and lust.
“Also do not dare to presume I would be in such a state. Given it is my domain I could easily take away the pleasure any woman finds with you including myself. Such arrogance within you! Then again, you are a man and men are born with arrogance, mortal or not.” Aphrodite shook her head then gave him a thorough glare. “You would never have the opportunity to see if you can follow through on the promise of making it difficult for me to walk for I have many men who I know could satisfy me more than you ever could. You’re pathetic.”
She had perhaps gone too far. Perhaps made no sense. But that didn’t matter. Aphrodite felt sure that she had made her point and that only mattered to her at the moment. He would know that she is in charge when it comes to this aspect of things.
