(Athena POV)
I haven't even digested what Lucah said when a strong hand pulled me. The camera's focus shifted to his direction. None other than, EL. Such a thief of an attention. Tsk. Tsk.
His face looked so rugged, proof of what Lucah has warned me about. The tightness of his grip was hurting my hand. Then he finally pulled me forward. The media were unable to keep up with us because of the tightness of the security by EL's assistants.
The door opens for us, and close as soon we enter. EL, drag me at the front where flowers filled the whole tables. Then the big screen shows my photo taken when I was in the middle school and EL who is in the horse racing polo attire. I was surprised and find myself dumbfounded. Is EL really serious about this?! YOU!
I pull my hand from him, but I couldn’t hold it back because of his strong grip. He just smirk
(Athena POV)Wow. It was as if my hand was itching now to slap his face. Did I hear him correctly? He is choosing me to be his mate?! And this will be a big issue for me?! Is he confessing his feeling toward to me? Or he thought choosing a mate is like it could happened in a thin air?! "Are you serious with what you are saying?!" I am surprise too. Who wouldn’t? “Are you that happy? That you are the one I choose?” Shit! He was literally the prince of arrogant. “Me?! Happy?! Dammit EL! Ever since you came into my life, everything has been a chaos around me!” That’s the godda
(Wenziel POV)My colleagues who were waiting for me immediately approached me. They smelled that I was injured, so Matilda immediately looked at what I endured. She mercilessly made it even worse by pouring a very painful medicine over it."What happened Wenziel?" asked my brother.“The vampire lord was alive. He is alive." I immediately exclaimed to them that they had stopped whatever they were doing. All eyes were on me. Their faces were enveloped in fear. “He wanted to kill me. And I know it has to do with the memory of the Grand Alpha's son. I am the one who erased it.”
(Athena POV)My heart was pounding so fast. Many threats awaited me, but the most dangerous threat came from this man with a fake smile on his lips. After he threatened me, we came back in front of the people. I think it is normal for a person with such power to intimidate a humble creature like me. I am aware that I am vulnerable to be threaten because I am one of the weakest creatures in this world. I held my own hand. I lowered my head hearing all the questions the media were eagerly throwing at us. Why would EL choose me to be his woman? I made a fist of my hand in annoyance.I will not let it happen. This is not fair on my part. And it will really pissed Uncle Wenziel once he knew about this. So I came face to f
(Athena POV)Some of his assistants and especially Lucah have lowered their heads. EL bit my lower lip and his tongue played with my tongue. Until he let go of my lips. Let me breath for a second and ravished my lips as if there is no tomorrow. He left my lips and with my eyes closed, his wet lips… and his tongue, was teasingly playing through my neck. My body has never felt this kind of sensation, as it trembled with every move of his tongue.My mind was telling me to resist but my body was just letting him take advantage of me. My own body betraying me. I was reduced in tears. I couldn’t do something against him. Until one of my hands held tightly onto his shirt. I felt his teeth sink in my neck flesh. Teasing me with its small gentle bites.
(Athena POV)“EL. Stop this already. You surely made a mistake by using me in your shenanigans. I'm just weak. I've come from a no name family. So please withdraw what you told them. It's okay if it will stain my name. It's just that... I really don't want to—.” I cut my words because of his deadly gaze at me. "Lucah!" It was as if my ears were deafened by his sudden scream to his secretary name. His men immediately circled around us. I don't know the reason why. It was as if they were waiting for danger or they must have heard something that alerted them.I was just surprised when the window around us started shattering. EL, covered my body to the shattered glass. I close my eyes in surprised that I don’t know wh
(Athena POV)LUNA. Isn't it in every werewolf story, Luna is always the name of the female protagonist? The female lead? So, it's just right that she's the one who deserves EL. While me on the other hand, Athena, a very unlikely name for the character that the authors write. Maybe I'm the villain in this story. But please don't kill me. I was just dragged by that idiot prick!"I see then." The final verdict of what EL’s stupidity bring to me. That all of a sudden there were another horde of vampires jumping to the window and each of them were carrying a human. They were in a position getting prepared to bite their necks. Their fangs are ready to sink into the innocent human lives.“EL!” I yelled his name in fright. I cou
(EL POV)The true color of these vampires has finally come out. This is what I want to show to my father. They are chasing our power than to committed in a marriage peacefully. "Marry someone else my Dear prince, not her." I just smiled at the vampire woman. Wondering why these vampires are aiming to take Athena. Or maybe it just has to do with the agreement I broke. She is making me laughed. I wouldn’t never dare to have a vampire as my mate. NEVER.I gave her a grin. I feel pity for her… if her feeling was real. Yet, I doubt that. "With what you are showing to me Luna, my fat
(EL POV)Though Luna was pissed with what I said, she still managed to smile at me. Then she quickly vanished in my sight. She could never lure me to that simple ability. No. This is actually a boring fight against with a woman vampire. I don’t want to take it, but I want to make them taste that I am not that totally obedient to my father. I know the capability of a vampire. Luring those who they get the trust showing a pitiful behavior. Tsk. I don’t agree that they already tamed by my father. They are secretly rebelling against to us. Do they think that I'm doing nothing when I am just locked inside my room? Tsk. Lupoz, you have underestimated me.
(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
