Awakening Desires: The Forbidden Rule of Olympus, Unveiled by Scarlet's Stubborn Limp

Chapter One: The Abandoned Goddess

Hephaestus, with his dark eyes, tanned skin, and dark brown hair, entered the abandoned part of Olympus alongside Poseidon. Both of their faces were still etched with shock from the security footage they had just witnessed.

Hephaestus, with a grim expression, said, "I can't believe my own brother would do something like this."

Poseidon, with a look of disgust, replied, "Zeus has always been power-hungry, but this...this is unforgivable."

As they continued to explore the area, Hephaestus suddenly noticed a faint heartbeat coming from a nearby bush. He quickly moved the bush aside and found Scarlet, the sister of Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Demeter, Hestia, and Hera, with albinism, red eyes, white hair, and pale skin, lying there unconscious.

Hephaestus, with concern in his voice, said, "She's alive, but her leg is badly broken and she's lost a lot of blood."

Poseidon, with a look of determination, said, "We need to get her out of here and to the healers immediately."

Hephaestus carefully picked up Scarlet and they both made their way out of the abandoned area. As they walked, Hephaestus couldn't help but notice how light Scarlet felt in his arms, despite her injuries.

Poseidon, noticing Hephaestus's gaze, said with a smirk, "Easy there, big guy. She's not a piece of metal you can just shape and mold."

Hephaestus chuckled and replied, "I know that, but I can't help but admire her strength and resilience."

Poseidon, with a playful insult, said, "You would, you're the god of fire and metal after all."

Hephaestus, with a smile, said, "And you're the god of the sea, yet you can't seem to keep your foot out of your mouth."

They both laughed and continued on their way, both grateful for the company and the distraction from the heavy situation.

As they reached the healers, Hephaestus gently laid Scarlet down and they both watched as the healers began to tend to her injuries, hoping and praying for her swift recovery.

Hephaestus couldn't shake off the feeling of protectiveness he felt towards Scarlet. He had always admired her from afar, her fiery spirit and her unwavering determination. He had never had the courage to approach her, but now, as she lay there helpless, he couldn't help but feel a deep connection to her.

Poseidon, noticing Hephaestus's distant gaze, said, "You know, you don't have to do this alone."

Hephaestus, snapping out of his thoughts, looked at Poseidon and said, "Do what alone?"

Poseidon replied, "Take care of Scarlet. You don't have to carry this burden by yourself."

Hephaestus, with a small smile, said, "I know, but I can't help but feel responsible for her. She's been abandoned and left for dead. I can't just turn my back on her now."

Poseidon nodded, understanding Hephaestus's feelings. He said, "I'll be here to help you, every step of the way."

Hephaestus, with a grateful nod, said, "I appreciate that, Poseidon. I really do."

As they watched the healers work, Hephaestus couldn't help but feel a sense of hope. Scarlet was strong, she was resilient, and she would pull through. He would make sure of it.

The abandoned goddess would not be abandoned any longer.
