“Let me help you get him up the stairs,” Tony says when we get to Mom’s house.

“Thanks, Tony, I appreciate it,” I tell him.

We both help Andreas out of the wheelchair and slowly help him up the stairs to my room. We help him sit on my bed, and Tony walks out of the room without saying anything.

“I’ll be back in a minute,” I tell Andreas, and he gives me a smile and nods.

“Tony, wait up,” I call out as I get to the hallway.

“What’s up, Alpha?” He says shortly.

“Are you okay?” I ask, placing my hand on his arm.

“It’s been a long week,” he sighs. He then looks past me at Andreas and asks, “Will you be okay?”

“I’ll be fine.” I smile. But Tony just nods, looking extremely unhappy. “Are you sure you’re okay?”

He looks at me and gives me a weak smile as he places his hand on my cheek and caresses it with his thumb. “As long as you’re happy, then I’m happy,” he whispers, then walks downstairs and outside.

I sigh and go back into the room, closing the door behind me.

“He cares for you,” Andrea

    I sit up with a start when I roll over and realize the bed is empty. “Andreas?” I call out.“I’m here, Athena,” he says, and I look over to find him standing in the bathroom doorway.“Are you okay?” I ask as I push the blankets off and rush over to him.“Sorry, I didn’t mean to wake you. I needed the bathroom, but I didn’t have the energy to get back to bed.”“You should have woken me,” I say, worried, as I take his hand and help him back to bed.“I should be taking care of you, not the other way around,” he says as he lies back down in bed.“That’s so last century,” I say, rolling my eyes as I climb back into bed as well.“I didn’t mean it like that. I mean, I know you’re hurting, and I wish I could do something to take your pain away,” he says as I snuggle into his chest again. “You were calling out for Alex in your sleep,” he says sadly.“Oh,” I whisper.“You started calling him dad?”“Yeah, just yesterday,” I say sadly. “I wish I’d started calling him dad sooner.”“You had a speci

    Once everyone who can be is seated around the conference room table, I start the meeting.“Thank you all for coming. Is there anything anyone wishes to bring up before we discuss things?”Alpha Pollux clears his throat. “Beta Castor and I will be leaving soon, but I just wanted to thank you, Alpha Athena. We wouldn’t have gotten out last night if it wasn’t for your mind-link.”“What do you mean?” I ask.“We all got out in time because you mind-linked us to get out of the pack house,” he explains.“I’m sorry, I’m confused. Are you talking about the mind-link I sent out to the warriors?” I ask.“Alpha, we heard it too. You mind-linked everyone in the house,” Beta Castor says.“That’s not possible,” I say. “We can only mind-link with our own pack.”“I heard it too, Alpha,” Lauren says.I look at Andreas with a shocked expression. “Maybe you can mind-link the chosen,” he says.“I heard it too,” Noah says, and everyone in the room gasps.“Try me, Alpha,” Elder Laskaris says.I close my eye

    Jess and Jason catch up to me outside the conference room, and Jess hugs me. “Thank you for protecting my sister.” “She sacrificed herself for this pack. It’s the least I could do,” I say, pulling back. “Are you guys leaving today with Alpha Peter and Luna Rachael?” I ask as we walk down the hallway of the pack house. “Yeah. We’re leaving in about half an hour,” Jason says. “Make sure you guys find me before you go, okay?” I say as we walk outside. “Of course, we wouldn’t leave without saying goodbye,” Jess says. “We’ll find Alpha Peter for you.” “Thanks,” I say, and they walk away. I hear a crash come from inside, so I run back into the pack house and hear yelling from the kitchen. “Did you seriously think you could leave our pack without repercussions?” I hear a male growl. As I run into the kitchen, I find Beta Stephan holding Lauren by the throat against the kitchen wall. “Get your hands off her,” I growl. “This is none of your concern, Alpha,” he growls back, keeping h

    “Are you okay, Athena?” Andreas asks as he sits next to me on the sofa near the window of the pack house. “I’m monitoring Cassia,” I say as I watch her and Michael out the window. Andreas places his hand on my leg. “She’ll be okay. She’s a strong woman.” “She’s important to me,” I sigh as I turn away from the window and snuggle into Andreas’s chest, wrapping my arms around him. “I’ll do everything in my power to protect her.” “You can’t protect everyone, baby girl. You have to let people stand on their own two feet,” he says as he rubs my back. “You don’t understand. She took a chance on me when she asked me to be her Delta, and when she was staying with me at Mom’s, we became really close. I’d do anything for her.” “And I can tell she’d do the same for you. But you asked her to stay as Luna for a reason. You need to trust that she can protect herself.” “I know you’re right. I guess it’s just hard to stop being her Delta,” I sigh, breathing in his scent. I hear the door open, a

    Later That Night“Are you sure you’ve had enough?” I ask Andreas, worried that he still can’t stomach much food.“I think if I eat anymore, I’ll throw it all back up again,” he says, moving the plate away. I give a little growl, upset that it’s taking so long for him to heal.He chuckles. “I’m okay, baby girl. The Doc is looking after me,” he says with a smile as he cups my cheek. “It’s just going to take some time.”I sigh. “I’m sorry. I just hate seeing you like this,” I say, placing my hand over his.‘Alpha, we need you at the pack house,’ Tony mind-links.‘Is it important?’ I ask.‘Felix got in contact with Harry. Alpha Leon wants to meet.’‘When?’‘In an hour.’I sigh again, cutting the link. “They need me at the pack house.”“Then let’s go,” he says with a smile and gets up from the bed. #We walk hand in hand down to the pack house; the moon shining bright in the night sky. As we walk up the porch steps, we hear arguing from inside.“What’s going on?” I ask as we walk into the

    I slow down as we enter the Shadow Rock territory, Enyo on high alert as we observe our surroundings, focusing her hearing on anything out of the ordinary. The smell of burning wood can still be smelt from the fire, making me nauseous as I sniff the air to see if anyone else is in the area. I slowly walk out of the thick brush, my head down low as I cautiously approach the clearing where the barn used to be, my ears back as I let out a warning growl for the figures I can see in the opposite tree line. I stop where I am, not leaving the cover of the trees, as I wait for them to make a move. Around ten people step out into the moonlight, and I see one of them is Alpha Leon. “No need to be afraid, Alpha Athena. We mean you no harm,” He calls out. Ryna shifts behind me and comes to stand by my side. “Show us that you’re unarmed,” he yells back. Alpha Leon lifts his suit jacket and turns to show he has no weapons hidden. “And your people, too,” Ryna calls out. Alpha Leon motions for

    “Athena!” Andreas shouts, grabbing my arm. “I’m okay,” I tell him as he inspects my arm, but I start to hear growls from behind me as my pack starts to rise from the ground, snarls filling the air as Alpha Leon laughs. “That was just a warning shot. The next one won’t miss.” Andreas’s head snaps up, and he lets out a murderous roar. Cassia roars as well, and they both surprise me by shifting and running toward Alpha Leon. The rest of us roar and shift, and we run toward Alpha Leon and his pack as they shift and run toward us. We clash in the middle of the field. The sickening sounds of bodies colliding, and the tearing of flesh fill the air as both sides attack each other. I finish subduing one of Leon’s wolves, and I look around for Ares and Ellie, and I realize they ran past Alpha Leon’s men and are trying to get the shooter out of the tree. I watch as Ellie and Ares pull the shooter down from the tree by his ankle, and his screams fill the air as they kill him. But I notice on

    “How long is this bloody tunnel?” I ask, my breathing shallow as I try to fight the claustrophobia I’m feeling. “I think I see a light up ahead,” Cassia says. “We’ve been down here for nearly thirty minutes. Where do you think it leads to?” Elder Andino asks. “I have no idea, but we need to be quiet and prepare for what’s on the other side,” Athena says, the glow of her blue eyes helping light the way through the pitch-black tunnel. ‘Is Enyo in control?’ I ask her. ‘No, why?’ ‘How are your eyes blue if you’re in control?’ I ask her, confused. ‘I don’t know. It just happens sometimes. It’s like I can draw on a power from within me, and when I do, it’s Enyo’s eyes, but I’m fully in control,’ she explains. I nod, not really understanding. “Maybe you should shift,” I whisper. “Just in case there’s more of Alpha Leon’s men or the rogue pack waiting for us.” “I agree,” Elder Laskaris whispers back. Athena stops, quickly undresses, gives me her clothes, and then shifts. Enyo shakes

    The early morning sun peaks over the surrounding mountains, spreading its warmth over our territory, but I don’t feel it. My breath is ragged as I run hard through the forest. Low-lying branches smack my face as I go past them, but I feel nothing. My only focus is to get to the lake. The lake will calm me before this rage swallows me whole.I finally see it in the distance, the lake that Enyo and I used to soak in after practice. Back when everything was right in the world. Before Daddy was murdered. Before I knew anything about the chosen.I don’t slow as I get closer. Instead, I brace for impact as I dive towards the ice covering the body of water. Enyo’s large, heavy body breaks through, and the iced water takes my breath away as I slowly sink to the bottom. I let the freezing water cool my heated body; the rage releasing from my body and my mind slowly clearing.I can hear shouts from above the water, but I ignore them. As the rage fuelled fogginess leaves my mind, I’m hit with a

    “Alpha! Alpha, can you hear me?”I groggily open my eyes and see Leah hovering over me.“Alpha, thank the Goddess,” Leah says with a heavy sigh. “Don’t move, Doc Apollo is on his way.”I grab the back of my head, and I feel that my hair is wet. I look at my hand, and it’s covered in blood.“What happened?” I ask, lifting my head slightly and looking around.“You fell down the cliff side after the rogue charged you,” she explains.I look to my left and up the cliff side. “I’ve been saying for years there needs to be a railing put up there,” I say with a groan and try to sit up.“Please don’t move, Alpha. You fell a long way.”“I see that. But I’ll be okay,” I tell her, sitting up. Then I remember the reason I was in the forest. “Where’s Catherine?” I ask, panicked.“Gamma Michael and Gamma Cole have her in custody,” she explains.“And the other rogue?”She says nothing but looks behind me. I turn and see a young boy, his neck clearly broken from the fall. “Shit,” I grumble. “How did you

    “Everything looks wonderful, Melanie,” I compliment her as I look over all the decorated tables outside of the pack hall.“Thank you, Alpha,” she says happily. “I hope you like everything inside, as well.”“I know I will,” I tell her with a big smile.She smiles back and bows before heading off to attend to her duties. Andreas comes up behind me and wraps his arms around my waist, nestling his nose into the crook of my neck. “I can’t believe we pulled this off.”“The pack has worked hard. I’m so proud of everyone.”I see Rich and Noah in the distance, with the Cresent Warriors, and Michael and Beta Castor behind them. I take Andreas’s hand and walk over to them, wanting to keep the conversation away from others. “Still nothing?” I ask, disappointed.“I lost their scent on the other side of the mountain,” Beta Castor says with a frown.“Leah stayed at the Cabin in case she’s stupid enough to go back there,” Tony says.I nod. “We’ll pick up the search again in the morning,” I tell them.

    “How is the feast coming along?” I ask Melanie, the pack’s head cook.“Everything is coming along nicely, Alpha. I’ve ensured there’s plenty of food for both packs, with extras.” She says with a proud smile.“You’ve done amazingly, Melanie. If there’s anything you need help with, please speak with Gino,” I tell her.“The Omegas are all taking care of everything, Alpha. They’ve been very helpful, as always.”“I’m proud of all of you,” I tell the rest of the Omegas and they all smile and bow their heads.“Alpha, I need a word with you,” Leah says from the kitchen door.“Of course,” I tell Leah. “Please excuse me, Melanie,” I smile at her.She bows her head and returns to her work, and I follow Leah into the dining room, where I find Rich and Noah waiting.“What can I do for our Epsilons today?” I ask with a smile.“We have a report from our border patrol, Alpha,” Rich says.“There’s been a sighting of a couple of rogues hanging around our borders,” Noah explains.I stiffen. “From the pa

    Three hours laterWe watch as fight after fight ends, and the defeated warriors fill the sidelines of the training field, joining the rest of the pack in cheering and enjoying the spectacle.We watch Michael closely as he defeats opponent after opponent.“He hasn’t lost any of his strength,” Cassia says, and I think I see something flash in her eyes, but whatever she was feeling quickly disappears when she notices me staring at her.“Or his viciousness,” Ryna adds.“Nothing wrong with some viscousness in your Gamma, Beta,” Harry says.“As long as it’s towards our enemies...” Gino mumbles.I focus back on Michael as he defeats another warrior, trying to ignore the guilt I feel from Gino’s comment.“Maybe you should have just named him Gamma, Alpha,” Tony says. “He has the advantage of being a born Beta. I don’t think anyone will beat him.”“It is looking that way. But maybe that will earn him back some of the respect he lost.”“Doubtful. But we’ll see,” Ryna says.“Cole could give him

    As I walk towards Ryna’s house with Andreas, I can’t help the pounding of my heart as I think of my best friend never forgiving me.I feel Andreas squeeze my hand tightly, and I give him a small smile as we climb the steps of Ryna’s small cottage. I take a breath as we approach the door and knock.Gino answers the door a few moments later, and I’m engulfed with the anger he feels as it radiates from his body.“He needs time, Alpha.” He says shortly.“I understand, Gino. But there are pack matters that need to be attended to,” Andreas says when I don’t say anything.“I will make sure that all pack matters are dealt with,” Gino responds, his glaring eyes never leaving mine.I swallow the lump in my throat and finally find the words I want to say. “I’m not here about pack business,” I say, my voice coming out as a squeak. “I came to apologize for everything that happened yesterday.”“It’s going to take more than apologies, Alpha,” Gino says angrily.“I know, but I can only start there.”

    The Next DayAthena P.O.VI try to roll over, but I’m being held in place by Andreas. I kiss his arm and say, “Time to wake up, my love.”He groans and hugs me tighter. “No, thanks.”I laugh and try to roll over again. “If you squeeze me any harder, Andreas, I’m going to pee.”“Fiiiiiine.” He releases me with another groan before rolling onto his back and rubbing his eyes. “We can’t stay in bed,” I say as I get up and go into the bathroom. “We have way too much to do in the next few days. We still haven’t questioned the others we captured with Leon the other night. We have to get the pack house sorted out…”“I knooooow,” he says with another groan, cutting me off before I repeat the seemingly never-ending list of things we need to do.I giggle as I finish up and wash my hands before turning the shower on. I hear Andreas come up behind me, so I turn around and wrap my arms around his neck with a kiss.He smiles into my lips before kissing down my neck to my mark. He leaves a chaste kis

    Somewhere nearby…I’m flung across the room as my connection to the Alpha is broken.“Master! Are you okay?” Alyria asks, running over and taking my arm.I look down at her bony hand on my arm, then at her. I glare at her and slap her hard across the face.“HOW DARE YOU TOUCH ME!” I bellow at her.“I’m sorry, Master.” She whimpers, holding her cheek.“GET ME THE WITCH! NOW!” I yell at her, and she gets up from the ground and scurries from the room.“What happened, Master?” Wren asks from the corner of the room.“Her wolf broke the connection,” I explain angrily, standing and brushing off my clothes.“How? I thought the witch said she’d be locked away in the Alpha’s mind?”“I don’t know!” I yell at him, and he shrinks back in fear.“You called for me, Sir?” the witch, Elizabeth asks as she enters my office.I stalk toward her angrily. “You told me the wolf would be locked away in the Alpha’s mind. So would you care to explain to me how the wolf was able to break my connection to the Al

    “MURDERER!” someone screams, and everyone falls silent, turning to where the scream came from. “Karla,” I whisper, my body suddenly shaking. She looks weak and sickly, her eyes red from crying. “WHY DID YOU KILL HIM?” she screams again, and I see Cassia running towards her. “Karla, why don’t we go back inside?” Cassia says softly, taking her arm. “DON’T TOUCH ME!” Karla shouts, pulling her arm out of Cassia’s grasp. “I WANT TO KNOW WHY SHE KILLED MY MATE!” The pack members begin whispering and pulling their kids behind them. “Karla, please, why don’t we go inside so we can discuss this,” Andreas says, taking a step towards her. He takes my hand to walk with him, but my feet won’t move. I’m frozen in place. No words are forming in my mind as I stare at the woman whose mate I killed with my bare hands. “Athena?” He says, looking back at me. “I… I…” I stutter out, but nothing else comes. “ANSWER ME, YOU FILTH!” Karla spits out, and Enyo growls.
