a little riddle

19

"This is going to change history, please bring your brother right now, we need to see if he smells anything else" Dumbledore nodded as Snape left the room

"seriously Mattheo" Olivia looked angrily back at him, "you knew she was using a potion on you and didn't do anything about it" she cut him off

"doesn't matter Olivia, I didn't care seems like I can't keep a girl after all" he looked back at her, as Tom barged in the room with Snape

"please smell this potion" as Tom nodded and got closer to the pot and leaned in, he smelt nothing, "nothing sir" he glanced back at the teachers

"the true soulmates" Dumbledore flicked his wand and a book appeared in front of them, "Tom Riddle you can go back, but you two stay," Snap told the students

"Aphrodite was a goddess of love, attraction, and beauty" Dumbledore gasped

" Zeus god of the sky, lighting, and thunder, ruler of all gods in ancient legends" dumbledore flicked the pages

"Zeus married Aphrodite because he feared his father, and feared her beauty would cause a war between gods for her affection" he stopped reading, "She had an affair leading to Phobos god of panic and his brother Pothos, he was one of the Erotes" he looked back at Mattheo

"Aphrodite despised her sister Psyche and made her another son Eros cast a spell on her, so the goddess of love and beauty was the most powerful among 3 sisters" he continued, "which lead to getting Aphrodite herself to get cursed, not being able to find her true love, she had many lovers and children but none of them was her soulmate" he stopped reading looking back at the kids

"at the end out of jealousy and hate, she became enemies with Zeus's other spouses, after they made up she found she was carrying his child again, yet had to get rid of it since it was too powerful and Zeus would've killed the mother and the child" Dumbledore continued

"the child was never born, she got an accident and lost her child, but she got pregnant again and hid it from everyone, giving the child away, far away from this world" he stopped talking

"Zeus found out about his son and despised him, he killed his wife for lying and giving the child away" Dumbledore continued, "Your ancestors Mattheo, it's the kid that was given away, and because Zeus had so much power over everything, he made his son impossible of being loved as a curse for his wife for betraying him" he continued

"And you Olivia, after you were given away, Eros, son of Aphrodite, kept an eye on you and made sure you were loved until you met your soulmate" he gasped, "this was not supposed to happen yet, I didn't think this was true," Snape told the students

"your miscarriage was the same as she had when she found out about her husband giving more attention to his other spouses than her," Dumbledore said, "but in this world, it meant Daphne giving potions to Mattheo to keep him to all by herself" he continued

"The Greek gods knew all of this would happen and Zeus still made you Mattheo incapable of love as a punishment you will serve forever" Snape went on with

"but seems like you two will be changing Wizarding history Miss Malfoy and Mr. Riddle, you too were able to find each other deep down, still hating and despising each other's characters" Dumbledore cut Snape off

"Your kids are the end of Voldemort" Dumbledore patted mattheos shoulder waiting for an answer

Mattheo and Olivia looked back at each other in shock about what they just heard but still, just nodded in confusion, "I will be giving you a week off to do some research about your ancestors if you don't mind" Dumbledore told the kids disappearing
