I Cry, I Fall Trough The Strings Of Your Words

Summary:

Stuck in Tartarus, Percy and Annabeth are cursed by the Arae. When he’ll be at his most broken, he will have to face his greatest enemy. As he goes against Akhlys, Percy shatters. A ghostly memory, a shade of his deceased lover and enemy appears.

But life is cruel and so is Luke.

Notes:

Heya guys! This little plot bunny came to be in a brainstorming session in nightingale’s discord server. This is heavily inspired by their Lukercy letters’verse series and I heavily recommend reading it before reading this fic for a better understanding of the characterization and context. Enjoy!

Work Text:

Luke’s shade howls in laughter. Percy can barely hear it over the sound of the pumping blood ichor poison roaring trough his veins, can barely hear Annabeth’s panicked shouts over the pain misery agony he feels. He rages, a storm begging to be freed in his throat towards Akhlys who cries and cries and cries. He can smell the fear racing trough her ichor. It hurts to breathe. It reminds him of Luke and Kronos, his alpha and the titan who fought for control one last time. The smell of a rapidly dying corpse hitting his nose. 

A breath caresses his neck. A soft familiar loving alpha voice purrs in his ears :


Kill her.”

 

Percy freezes. Then, just like a puppet on a string, his body jerks into motion.
