"Oh trust me. I've stayed under my brother's radar for centuries. He has too much to worry about to even think that I might have a life outside of the Underworld."

A brow arches at that and, for a moment, there is a hint of a purplish sheen to his cheeks as he blushes at that. "Hera and I... we've been close for many years. Before she and Zeus even became the pair they are today. I'm not surprised she took interest in someone I've taken interest in. You needn't worry about her saying anything to my brother though. Not if you're a friend of mine."
