(Athena POV)
"Serve Master EL as your lover Miss Athena." Those plain words of advice make me feel to vomit. Haist. I thought of something more challenging task would Mia tell me. But that is frustrating though.
Lover? She really wants to boost her boss' ego. However, I just don't see myself serving that idiot. Mia is a type of person who is very loyal to the people she serves. I immediately shook my head at her. Yes, I may be green minded at times. But I will never do that with him, PERIOD!
I shook my head no to Mia, again and again. Then I stared outside again as I hug myself.
(Athena POV)“EL!” I even kicked the door. But I writhe in pain because of my stupidity. It really hurts. Of course, the door is harder than my little toes. How foolish of me. Huhuhu.“Fool.” I heard him. He is the one who is making me fool. Why not let go of me? I am just like a bird who was trap somewhere and even there is a lot of way to escape I could only hope to exit in what I am seeing a glass of window. "What do you want me to do here?" As I massage my toes. Then, I did not realize that he was already next to me looking at my foot. He smiled at me.
(Athena POV)When I woke up. I was now lying on the bed, but I was still hugging something. I rushed to get up from thinking that I was still hugging EL. But it was just a pillow. I wiped my lips… which was... Ahem. I drooled, probably because of a wonderful sleep I had. I stretched in positive way.I accidentally stared at the clock next to the bed. My eyes widened because, it's almost noon?! Despite having slept for a long time already before EL grabbed me to the bed. Haist! No wonder. The temperature in this room makes me feel really sleepy. I stretched out my arms again. Then I left the bed and immediately parted the curtain. I instantly smiled. I knew that the view in this place is really nice.
(Athena POV)Choosing a dress was not the important things in this hour. I don't want to see the old woman whom I had a hair tugging competition again. I already look so bad in that image. I know that we can no longer get along. She will be my mother in law, but... she has a different impression of me now. First impression lasts forever. And what we had was negative, very negative. So, what can I expect from EL's stepmother? “Hey Mia. I need to talk to EL.” As I wake up to my situation. I need to take an action and warn EL about his stepmom impression to me. For sure she will be bad to me. Nooooooooo!"Miss Athena." I held out my hand to her. I don't need to hear
(EL POV)I hung up Lucah's phone. I looked at the people in front of me during the meeting. I smiled at them because I knew that I was acting a bit strange in front of them and I doesn’t care about their reaction. The call was a surprise for me. This is what Athena brings to my life, this feeling of sudden craziness.I smile once again and looked at them. They are in surprised; they might see something in my face that change my mood. Oh, it was better right? "Continue." As I told and nodded with the speaker. We were discussing about what happened the other day. There was a total of five werewolv
(Athena POV)EL basically gave me a problem that I should deal with. Here I am waiting for EL's Stepmom to arrive. Just a stepmom, not a real mother. Tsk. But even so, elders should be treated with respect. I should never lose that habit. They have all the experience that you are yet to face. As saying goes, Elder was on the way to return while us, the youth one was about to face the real war of life. Hope it was not that difficult to handle. It is what we called life. I was even more nervous when a convoy of cars arrived and the one in the middle stopped in front of the entrance. I cannot even enjoy the beauty of this place because o
(Athena POV)"As always, this is how I will end up with? This mansion didn’t change even a little bit from my last visit here." She remarked and I don't know if she is angry or not. So? What about me? This is my first time to be here in this place and nothing is ugly. With the beauty of the surroundings, I almost feel ashamed of myself. "When are you going to change EL's view of himself, Athena?" Huh? Can someone even do that? That hardheaded guy will never listen to someone. Even his father does so. Why would I’ll be hard to myself? What an ass. If the person wants to change himself, he will
(Athena POV)I got in the car with Tasya on my right. Her every move is sophisticated. It's something she learned, and it just became natural to her. Here is the tips, if your behavior is really elegant since birth, there's no need to study, or if you're surrounded by sophisticated people growing up, you'll just grow up absorbing it as a norm. I know someone, and that's EL. I don't have any negative comment on his actions when it comes to his sophistication. Haist. He's born in a royalty.Since I was unconscious when I came here, I chose to just stare outside. It is so beautiful that a magazine company has not been able to properly express every corner of this place. I just noticed that there were a lot of people securing the whole area. It would be i
(Athena POV)But as a result, Tasya waived her hand which means she did not like it again. Okay. She was aware that she could put a disaster in this shop if her demand couldn’t meet. The stylists were in a meeting mode again. They are eager to please with satisfaction the heart of the arrogant old woman. I walked in front of the mirror with the wedding gowns displayed on the side. I caught sight of a wedding gown that was simple and slim on the body. Mermaid tail. I feel like someone who's important to me has used it before. “Is that what you want to try?” The gay stylist remarked to me. “Don't even think about it. It is said that whe
(EL's POV) "Let her." I told Lucah. We left immediately while I massage the side of my head. “Lucah, make sure that Athena is somehow kept away from the places that are in chaos. I will immediately do the work that some Alphas cannot do." “Master El, what if you fall victim to the drug. You need to avoid going out as much as possible. That is also the order of the Grand Alpha." “Do you really think that I will let that happen Lucah? Tss.” Then I disappeared in front of them. I found myself on a high rooftop to have a good vantage point on what was happening around. I could hear the sirens all over. Is this the start of a Vampire revolution? Tss. They really had the audacity to reveal their true colors. Athena, please take care. I guess I just need to trust you amidst this turmoil around us. As I observe the area below me, I witnessed how Athena shot an arrow to a vampire who was about to bite its victim
(Athena's POV)Me? Going with Darrell? That's basically an invitation for El to kill me. I'll fight anyone, not just that man. That man is bad news when he gets angry. So, I'm really sorry Darrell.EL's men arrived, so we went out of the house. I just found out that the tear gas that was thrown at our house was positive with drugs which made El's assistants go mad."Miss Athena, what are you planning to do?" Lucah confronted me. Why is EL not with him?“As EL promised, your boss. He will give me freedom, right?”“Miss Athena, every place now is in chaos. Master EL does not want to disturb the two days he gave you but given the circumstances, we need to make sure that you're safe. You saw what happened earlier, didn't you?”“Who's responsible for this Lucah? It's you, right? If the Grand Alpha hasn't discriminated the vampires, none of this would have happened."“I don’t have a
(Athena POV)EL's staff immediately entered the house. Making sure the the surroundings were secured. Aunt Matilda and I are close to each other. We heard on television that many vampires have already joined the revolt and even turning some humans into vampires. That is the last thing they should do.Is this a start of a new chaos? Will this be another war?...The window suddenly shattered, something was thrown inside the house that immediately let out thick smoke. I had difficulty breathing… then I saw El's staff coughing out blood...It showed me how they changed their forms. I could not speak when they start changing. Their clothes torn apart, Aunt Matilda and I are backing away…. I think the smoke is what triggers the werewolves to lose control of themselves, it's the medicine that El mentioned that made by the vampires. They can attack anyone using this weapon!In the seconds that followed… we were surroun
(EL's POV)Me and Lucah haven't even gotten to the conference room yet, when he immediately told me the updates.Riot. A few cases of riot occur in just an hour. My staff are already busy taking the necessary actions. We have not even been able to find out the exact reasons about the incident that happened with Athena earlier.I rolled up my sleeves, in front of me are the newly assigned alphas set by their respective packs. Vampires are already raging against us. Lucah and I went over the responsibilities of the Alphas in each territory. They have no complaints about their given roles, being an alpha is an honor that all werewolves takes pride of. The day isn't over yet, and we already received a lot of news that many Alphas are losing control of themselves.I got up from my seat. I stared at Lucah who already knew what he needs to say."Master EL, your life may be put in danger."“No. I won’t let that happen. I
(Athena POV)Uncle approached me with a big smile on his face. Then he tapped me hard on the shoulder, it made me skip a breath for a second.“Uncle… just take it easy."“You will feel worse when you have regrets in your decisions later in your life. It'll be heavy for to carry, and that hurts. So no matter what happens, stand up for the decision you will make Athena... until the end.”“What are you talking about Uncle? Have you made up your mind? You will really give me to El huh?"Of course. Ahaha. Your parents are happy about this.” I was stunned at what he just said."Really? My parents will be happy for me being married to El?” I close my eyes as he laughs again as if the world's end is about to come. “Uncle! I am serious here!""El, the son of the Grand Alpha, he is every woman's dream to be in their lives. Women who can be far more beautiful than you."&ld
(Athena's POV)I bit unto my lips while my heart feels like pounding out my chest. It hurts more if you ignore it, it grabs my attention every moment that I'm alone… and it never stops. I sighed deeply as I slowly close my eyes. At the same time, I pull my hair, unsure where my life is going to take me now.I sat on my bed and asked myself why I suddenly lost my fear in this world. This world is chaotic. But ever since I met EL, he's always been willing to lay down his life for me, my question is… is that what love is? Full of sacrifices? EL, though you are not an ordinary creature, you still need to value the life you have.My thoughts suddenly grazed over Darrell. What is happening to him? Is that the principle of all vampires? It can't be. Since the time I'm with my Uncle Wenziel, he has never been like that.I got off my bed and left the room. I was just stunned while I was pacing myself down the stairs, Au
(Athena POV)I tried to open my eyes despite being drowned by the brutal winds. I clung around El as tight as I can, don't he dare say that the cause of my death is falling because of his stupidity."Just calm down Athena." he slightly shouts at me for me to hear. "I will not let you go; I promise!"I'm not sure what he meant by his promise… it's either he will not let me go in this relationship or from this nonsense he is doing right now. Clinging like a monkey with a koala. I'll be the koala, not the monkey. Don't compare me with him.Ahem. He is not a monkey but a wolf. Wow. So werewolves are also good at hanging on to something! They must be the missing link Charles Darwin is looking for.From the look in his eyes… I know he won't really let me go. I just have to trust my heart in him. If not, I will really destroy this man's next generation. Don't do something stupid now El. Tsk, or else I will cut something from
(Athena POV)Wait. I promised myself that I will not fall for him. I swore that to myself. I can't let this happen. No! I will never have feelings for him. Shoooo EL! Shooo!That's why I tried to let go off his clutches… but he hugged me tighter. I just waited for him to release me because I know he won't let go of me anyway."Let's go home Athena." his voice sounded very soft and tender. He kissed me on my head, so I looked up at him. His lips touched my forehead as I tilt my gaze."Idiot." I pushed him away. “You promised me that you would give me two days. A day hasn't passed yet.""You're making me worry too much Athena."“And why would you worry about me? You don't feel anything for me. You're a fool if you think like that." But El's face was serious. He closes his eyes and sighs deeply."Do you have any feelings for me Athena?" He asked me as he opened his eyes. This is the most serious questi
(Athena POV)I looked at the terrace door because I heard something broke all of a sudden. A woman screamed and she look stunned and I know it's because she just saw EL's naked body. I was about to say something, but she suddenly fell unconscious.Yes. El's body is a lot to handle, especially if you are not used to see a man with a ripped physique. His body looks like a statue carved out of a marble just like the idols engraved on Olympus.I just walked inside from the terrace… and I knew that fool would come back. I grabbed something that would cover his body. I also pulled a blanket to cover the woman. I'm sorry miss, that man is really crazy.But as I turned my gaze back to the terrace, a smiling EL greeted me. Did he immediately pacify the trouble below? I approached the railings and took a peek below. The sirens of the oncoming police could be heard from where we are."EL…" I mentioned his name…. but I did
