His two friends tried to remain positive.
“Don’t worry, you can handle it,” Eros claimed.
Triton slammed his fist into the Love God’s stomach. “That’s for giving me such brilliant advice.”
“Hey, I meant well.”
“Should’ve listened to me instead,” Hermes said with a smug smile on his face. “But no, you thought I was tricking you. Now, would I do that to you?”
“Yes, you would, and you have,” Triton said, sarcasm dripping from his voice.
“Not this time. Hades would have been a blast.”
Like he needed to be told. Hades might have a bad rep among mortals, but a crafty God like Triton could have made it work.
“Maybe you should have listened to Zeus in the first place rather than daydreamed again.” Eros caressed his bow.
“Or maybe you shouldn’t have shagged Danae in the first place.”
“Hindsight is twenty-twenty, but that’s not going to help me now. So, what’s the plan? How are we getting out of this one?” Triton asked and gave his friends an expectant look.
“We?” Eros and Hermes responded in unison.
“You’re on your own on this one,” Eros proclaimed.
Hermes nodded. “Ditto.”
“Jerks!” Triton didn’t get a chance to continue chastising his friends. A moment later, he felt a strong force rip through his body, transporting him off the mountain.
“Eros, payback’s a bitch,” he yelled, but wasn’t sure if the Love God had heard him.
Great, Zeus wasn’t even giving him time to pack for this trip.
