Chapter: Her Granted Wish NERO’S POVBreath-taking, the only word I could describe the woman my eyes were glued on. The same word had a lot of meanings that were now dear to my heart like she was.It meant her personality, the one that was brave enough to love for as long as she did, holding on to her feelings hoping I would understand the truth and fall for her. And now I did. I fucking loved her more than anything in the world.It also meant her beauty, one that took my breath away each time I looked into her eyes whether she had makeup on or not, close to her or far at a distance. It hooked me, every single time.And if I was being truthful to myself, I could say that I was attracted to her when we first got married, I was just too bitter to believe or admit it.Athena walked into the room and I couldn’t help but feel jealous and proud at the same time. Jealous because every man and woman stared at my wife, but proud because they too could see what I saw in her and what I was seeing on her appearance.This

Chapter: What Reward? ATHENA’S POVI was startled awake by the noise around. It wasn’t that kind of noise – one with the screams and death, but it was one that was loud enough to have me wondering what was going on.After my work out session at the training field and my conversation with Nero’s Mother – more like she spoke and I listened – I spent the entire night barely able to sleep.I had never felt disappointed at the people who raised me but I couldn’t also deny that I was. Their act reminded me that I was not their child and for that I missed my parents dearly.I slipped out of my covers and swung over my legs till they touched the floor. I stood up and made my way out of my room, rubbing my eyes from the sleep I barely got.As soon as I opened the door, I met with the corridors being decorated. It was pretty but it confused me. “There’s going to be a ball and you’re attending.” The Queen’s words rang in my ear and I groaned.But maybe I could escape during that time. Maybe I could find a corner to h

Chapter: The Planned BallCHANGE OF POVAlpha King Leon sat on his bed unable to sleep. He was filled with worry he couldn’t help but feel. Not to mention the guilt that was eating away at his soul.Its all my fault. He had said to himself severally as he felt that it truly was.Beside him in bed was his mate, his Luna Queen. She too was quite with her own thoughts, ones that drifted to her daughter now daughter in law.“It’s not your fault Leon.” She voiced out of nowhere, having heard his thoughts, the ones she had noticed had bothered him for a few days. “You couldn’t have known she was going to jump in and save us.”He sat upright from the position he was leaning into the bed on. “But it is Olivia, can’t you see. All I had to do was grant them the divorce like they both wanted.” He rubbed his temple, feeling a wave of dullness rub through him. “If we had gotten them divorced, they both would be living their lives separately. Athena wouldn’t be in so much pain because of us.”The Queen nodded, agreeing with

Chapter: Going for Her ZAVIER’S POV My house was a wreck at this point but I didn’t care. I didn’t now, I wouldn’t later. “That son of a bitch ratted me out. Now I’m a fugitive!” I growled feeling the heavy weight of betrayal press me down. How could Nero stand there and watch his parents declare that I be arrested? What sort of friend was he? He hadn’t shown up at the house in a few and after our last conversation, I grew worried that he meant what he said about me letting my hate for Athena go. And how I was supposed to stay away from her. Somehow, he forgot what she had done and the promise that he made to both Zara and I. Somehow, he wanted me to just trust that he was now a changed person and I was supposed to believe him. It was hypocritical what he was doing. And I resented him for it. “What am I supposed to do now?” I groaned to myself, wanting nothing but to finish what we started. Or what I thought I wanted us to finish. I hated how I was jealous of him. I truly was. He was my friend and I

Chapter: Wanting A Clean Slate NERO’S POVIf I had felt a tug in my chest when Athena told me she hated me in the past and I didn’t care about it, it meant a great deal to me this time.She hated me, but why wouldn’t she after all hell was the only thing I made her go through, in the one year we had been married?She wanted me to stay away from her and that’s what I did or I tried to do. The last thing I wanted was to annoy her more than I already was so for the first time I listened to what she wanted, but only for some time.The night passed on, and a new day came. I wasn’t excited for it except that it was new and I could spend it finding ways to fix my mistakes.I concluded my morning routine in a hurry dashing out like a man late for an appointment. I made it to the breakfast table before everyone and seeing that, I waited for her to show up.Half an hour later, my father and mother showed up, hand in hand whispering to each other like they hadn’t literally woken up in each other’s arms.They were mates in lov

Chapter: The Partial KingATHENA’S POVI took deep breaths as I stood in the garden. The fresh air made me happy and I was grateful to be alive. Somehow, the garden had new additions to it and it made it even more beautiful than I remembered it.While I enjoyed the view, I couldn’t help but feel sad that I wasn’t around to help with the change.I loved gardening, but no one knew that. The one time I had come down to it, Nero saw me and ordered that I never step foot in it ever again.What would he say if he saw me right now? Would he think I was tainting the beauty of the scene here?I took in another breath, releasing it about the same time my mind drifted to when he hugged me upon knowing that I was awake.That action of his was strange to say the least. I wanted answers and the Queen didn’t seem ready to answer my questions and I didn’t know why.Maybe if insisted she would have told me. Maybe that’s what I needed to do.I walked around the garden some more, letting my hands touch the flowers that bloomed a

Chapter: 86JUSTINMy heart was pounding against my chest widely and a strange feeling settled over me as my eyes drifted from my father to my mother . I had never seen my parents so- tense like that before, the seemed so bothered about something I couldn’t understand why it was. My father’s jaw was tight and my mother’s lips were pressed together in a tight line as if she was trying to hold back her words. For the first time in my entire life, it seemed like there was an unresolved issue lingering between them, something neither of them wanted to talk about.My mother sat down and my father sat beside her, he held her hands tightly as if to anchor him. Then with a small sigh, he started talking. “There’s something I haven’t told you before and I guess this is the time for you to know, Justin,” he let out, his voice firm but I could tell the tension underneath it. “Years before I met your mother or even began dating her… I used to date a witch.”I frowned at what he said, refusing to believe his

Chapter: 85JUSTINI knew something was off about that girl right from the start. And right here, she proved me right the moment she disappeared. Of course, she was a witch but why had she come here only to disappear? Why show herself now if it wasn’t a part of some plan?I turned around and saw Astrid with wide and startled eyes, a million thoughts were swirling in her head. I could hear her thoughts and she was back to thinking about her wolf, back to believing she needed a witch to fix whatever was wrong with her wolf. But not this witch. Raina, Sasha, or whatever she called herself. She was the wrong person for that. A very wrong one and I had this feeling she was dangerous too. It was clear too.I walked to Astrid and placed my hand on her arm, but her mind was too preoccupied with what she was thinking she knew about Raina. “Astrid,” I whispered through our link. “Look at me. She is not the witch you're looking for, snap out of it, baby. Raina is a liar and a friend of Hunter’s. She can’t

Chapter: 84ASTRIDI was sure it was him- or at least, I thought I was. Maybe it was just my mind playing tricks on me, spinning my fears into shadows outside the window. I didn’t feel safe. Not anywhere. Not anymore. The only place I felt safe was in Justin’s arms. But what are we going to do now?I was trembling and crying quietly into his chest as he held me tight, his hands rubbing my back up and down soothingly. The only thing that comforted me was his presence and the warmth of his body. Not even a minute later, the room was filled with everyone else. The door burst open, and my parents and Justin’s came inside. I could feel their eyes on me, I could see the worry in their eyes and I started feeling overwhelmed. “What happened?” Justin’s mother asked, her voice laced with concern. “The fucker was here,” Justin replied her, his voice was strained and I could tell he was trying to control his anger. “Astrid saw him.”They all let out a low gasp immediately the words came out of Justin’s m

Chapter: 83JUSTINI was torn between staying with Astrid to protect her and the baby and going over to where Hunter was to confront him. I felt that familiar feeling of fear and all my body became tense as my mind started racing, calculating the risks. Under no circumstances must Hunter find out about the baby. If he found out, his games could get dirtier, more dangerous, and I could not afford that. Not now. Not ever. I pressed a kiss to Astrid’s temple, she was too focused on her ice cream, completely unaware of anything happening while mine was melting in my hand, dripping down my fingers. So, I got to eating it and took my eyes back to where Hunter was, but he was gone like he had never been there. I turned Astrid and tried to get her walking so we could get out of there but she wasn’t budging. “I want another one,” she whined, holding out her empty cone. I forced a smile, trying to keep my fear out of my eyes and our link. “We have to leave sweetheart,” I said, my voice steady despite th

Chapter: 82JUSTINWith an opponent hot on my heels, I ran across the pitch, the wind whipping over my hair. I didn't care that running had scorched my lungs and pushed my legs to the breaking point. There was only one thing on my mind- reaching the goal post. I focused, dodged an opponent and narrowed my eyes. And Immediately I got to the goal post, I swung the pusher against the ball straight into the net. The stadium exploded in cheers as soon as the ball got past the goalkeeper and into the net.Victory. I turned immediately to the stands, my eyes searching for the one face that made this whole moment worth it. Astrid was there, her eyes shining with pride and a big smile playing at the corners of her lips. I blew her a kiss, grinning like a fool. I could barely hear my teammates rushing towards me, to celebrate with me. The championship game had just started and this was our third win. I ran to where she was in the crowd in the stand as soon as the game ended. I immediately lifted her int

Chapter: 81HUNTERI stared at Raina and her mother, Celeste, with a bored expression plastered across my face. The room felt suffocating with their presence, their very existence was dripping with deceit. If there was one thing I had learnt from dealing with these two, it was that they were up to something. The fact that they had the audacity to show up at my pack unannounced only confirmed my suspicions. Whatever they were planning, I needed to figure it out- and fast. I had zoned out for a moment, allowing the dull hum of their voices fade to become background noise, but then, Celeste called my name, snapping me back to the conversation. I blinked, trying to focus on her as she spoke. “Hunter, we heard what happened,” she said with sympathy in her voice and I rolled my eyes. “So, what are your plans now?” She asked, her voice smooth and practiced. It was as if she was trying to sound genuinely concerned, but I knew better. I could see the calculation in her eyes, the way her lips curled into
