Original Drabble: The Will of a God

“I thought I told you if you ever slept with a man who could not beat you in fair combat you would suffer my wrath!” the war god thundered his bloody gaze falling on the scrawny form of the man beside her. The flames from the god’s sword miraculously didn’t set the pillows on fire, but she could feel them burn where the blade touched her neck.
Her new boyfriend stared wide eyed at the shining terror standing at the foot of the bed.
She didn’t even bother pulling up the sheet and winked. “Our Scrabble matches are very combative.”
Author's Note: So it's a stupid, misogynistic, melodramatic trope, so I feel compelled to spoof.
