Love Fades, But Mine Never Will

I'm loosing what was found, a world so hollow

"Ohh. I guess I understand what you mean Vika, not really because I've only dated two people. And I wasn't serious about them, I was dating them to try and get over your brother. But you don't need to stress Olena will love Lena because you love her." I soothe petting Vika's hair until she calms down. She grins sheepishly at me after. "You're fine Vika, wanna go for a workout with me? Or did you just come from one?" I ask yawning.

"Hmm I was gonna go for one to calm my mind but you've helped me calm down so I'm going to go cuddle with Lena and then take her for lunch. If you're not back by then I'll take the other guardian your dad stationed." Vika answers with a yawn. She stands up and gives me side hug before dashing back upstairs.

I feel a nudge on my thigh and look down and see two pairs of eyes staring at me pleadingly. "Eris Persephone, what are you and Hades doing out of your crates? You know you two aren't allowed out alone together. You wreak too much havoc together. I refuse to clean up throw up and ripped up clothes up again. And don't get me started on you eating my panties and bras Hades." I scold my chocolate brown 4 month old Pitt and Yelena's white and brown 4 month old Australian Sheppard.

Despite the fact that animals typically don't like dhampirs I rescued them from a fire when they were newborns and they ended up liking me enough to stay in the same house as me. They both whine and look pleadingly at me before tugging on my leg. "Oh alright I will play with you before I go on my run. But you have to go back up until Vika and Lena wake up. We aren't trying to have puppies, and Hades like to hump you when he thinks no one's looking." I huff playfully looking sternly at Eris.

I lead them in the direction of the living room and sit on the couch. Eris and Hades run to their kennels excitedly and pick up a dog toy each and bring them to me and drop them in my lap. Eris brings me her toy tire with a rope attached to it while Hades brings me a bright orange tennis ball. I take the tennis ball and lightly bounce it to the other side of the room and grab the other side of the tire and offer the rope side to Eris. Hades immediately sprints after the ball with an excited tail waggle. Eris yips happily and begins tugging until she gets tired. Hades brings me the ball back and I throw it until he also gets tired.

I stand up and walk their toys over to their toy bin and toss them in before replacing their food and water in their bowls. "C'mon pups let's get you to the bathroom before I put you back up." I walk over to the backyard door and open in and let them out before shutting it. They run around and yip happily before doing their business and running back up to me and jumping and giving me kisses on the cheek. I open the door and let them in before locking the door tightly. They walk back to their kennels and curling up in their beds with a sleepy yawn. I latch the locks on their kennels before walking out the door and locking it with my key. I plug my ear buds in my phone and play my workout playlist. I slowly begin stretching and then retire my laces so I don't have to stop to retire them.

I turn up my music and hum along when 'The Victim' by 'Daughtry' begins playing. I walk away from the house and start jogging and let my thoughts wander while I run. I wonder if they ever found who tried to frame me? The song then shifts to 'Traitor' by 'Daughtry' and I snort, it's like my mind summoned that song. Baba and I have discussed this before, we think whoever framed me had to have been close enough to me to know I have a distinctive stake. My everyday regular stake I wouldn't have noticed had it gone missing but that one had I been there I would've noticed it missing.
