How was that for a double update? Wow, things are really heating up now! Please let me know your thoughts on this. I have been waiting for so long to get to this point.
Chapter 79: Been WaitingDemi No words come to mind that could help me describe the scene playing out before me. That’s Beta Tanner. I can tell by the distinct features of his wolf form. He’s a loved and adored member of the Harmony Moon pack. Ares has given up his disguise of Gavin and is finally showing his real face. He has Tanner pinned down, his foot crushing the massive wolf’s neck as he struggles to breath. His wolf form kicking and bending, desperate to get loose from Ares’ grip. It’s no use. He’s not strong enough. I can tell he has fought against the God hard. Many wolves would have perished way before now, but not this one. He will fight till the end and if I don’t do something, it’s sure to happen. Drake threw his arm out attempting to hold me back. I had forgotten that he had come here with me. “Demi, don’t. Let me!”Before I could protest, Drake’s body started to change. I have never seen his true demonic form before. He began to morph
Chapter 80: Then There Was Nothing--Drake-- “Fuck! Demi no!” What the hell is she doing? There’s no way Demi can fight against this son of a bitch. He’s way stronger than I anticipated. They don’t call him the God of War for no reason. I am dead tired. I’m blaming it on being out of the game for twenty years or so. I can’t let my fatigue stop me. I have to keep pushing. I can’t let anything happen to Demi.I moved to place myself in front of her. She is a keres, but being a Demi god makes me faster. I angle my fist letting my demonic flames take over my entire form. Swinging I am confident that I am going to connect with Ares face, but I miss.“Damn it!” I growl out.I drop sliding on one knee and spin, only to be hit with an iron fist directly in my temple. My sight blurs, but I can’t stop now. This isn’t going to end well for me, but this is me making up for everything that I put Willow through. If I can hold this mother fucker off until Ryder gets here then maybe, just
Chapter 81: TerrifyingDemiMy heart was beating so hard. My eyes didn’t leave Ryder’s growing dragon frame as he flew closer, gaining speed with every massive thrust of his giant wings. I heard Drake’s body fall to the ground. I heard his heart stop pumping, but still, I didn’t look away. I didn’t want Ryder to be here. Though I knew he would come, the fear of something happening to him again creates a pain within me that could never be mirrored or overshadowed by anything else. The loss of Drake would linger forever. Sorrow was a heavy feeling, but there was another feeling in the atmosphere, bloodlust. It’s accompanied by a static energy fueled by not only Ares anger and aggression, but Ryder’s as well. Energy produced from this much anger and aggression has been building for years. This is the most dangerous energy there is. It can become its own kind of power. It brings the fight between Ryder’s parents and Hades to the front of my mind. The one where together they created the new
Chapter 82: NumbRyderConsciousness evaded me. Every hit that landed on my head and face caused me to temporarily lose my eyesight. Black dots swirled and blurred my vision as I thought about what it was that I was doing. I can’t let this guy beat me. Not this time. He successfully tore me away from Demi once. It won’t happen again. Where’s my Lycan?Ahh there he is… I grinned as my teeth elongated, and my eyes shifted from crystal blue to amber with red swirls. A ferocious growl left my lips as my body continued to shape and morph. Ares attacks and blows, making everything a bit harder. My skin tore as fur sprouted to cover my entire body. I had huge paws for my back feet and humanoid hands. Surprisingly I can move just as easily in my Lycan form as I can in my humanoid form. “Your Lycan will do you no good here boy!” Ares continued. “Give up, Ryder. You are nothing.” Ares spoke and I laughed.Catching his fist in my hand, I stood in a flash and kicked his legs out from under him. H
Chapter 83: NothingRyderWhere the hell am I? Not this again, damn it! It’s pitch black. This reminds me of when I fell from earth straight into hell, but this time, I know I am not alive. I have lost to… him. Raising my hands to look, I don’t see any wounds, I don’t feel any pain. Well… I do feel the pain in my chest that comes with the fact that I have let everyone down. I let Demi down. What’s happening on the surface right now? What is he doing to her? Are my parent’s dead? Drake… I watched his lifeless body disintegrate. He got blown away into the air. Luca… He, fuck! There’s no way he would have walked away from an attack on Ares. They were my best friends. Everyone has sacrificed so much for me. I’m useless.I drop to my knees and fisted my hair. Squeezing my eyes shut, all I see is her, my Demi. Hot liquid seeps from my eyes, and that’s when I realize that I am crying. A Lycan who cries, ha! I’m useless. So… damn, useless! “I… I love you Ryder. If we can’t be toget
Chapter 84: Broken Chains**Demi**I blinked and Ares had ahold of my hand, stopping the blade from piercing my heart. “I… I love you Ryder. If we can’t be together in life, maybe… Maybe we can be together in death.” I whispered into the dusty air.Tears streamed down my cheeks. I am praying that I can see him again. I feel the blade make its way through the skin of my chest, only inches away from its target, my heart. Warm sticky liquid exits the wound and makes its way down, leaving a growing red spot on my white bustier. Then something stopped me. “You really didn’t think I would let you kill yourself, do you? Not when I finally have you all to myself.” Ares spoke. “Ares! No, let me go!”Ares hand covers mine, halting it so that it can move no further. My mind told me to scream and kick, but something else happened. It’s almost like a camera flash. I blinked, then standing before me is a solid black form. Scales so dark that it was almost like you
Chapter 85: Let’s GoDemiJust because I promised Ryder I would stay away from his fight with Ares doesn’t mean I plan to stay out of the fight all together. I grab hold of an Olympus soldier. He screamed as I lifted him high into the air. I have already used my healing powers, why would I hold my other powers back now? I dropped him placing both palms of my hands together then released a golden blast that degenerated both his body and armor. Simply dropping him wouldn’t have killed him. He’s an Olympus soldier, they are the strongest of all armies. It’s best not to play around with them.I was elated to see that Luca and Drake were alive. Luca looked like he had been road hard and put up wet, but he was alive none the less. I Kept my eyes trained on Ryder to make sure nothing surprised him from behind. He kept giving me an angry side eye every time I dropped down to assist. It was his way of telling me to get back and stay safe, but what kind of mate would I be to allow him to fight
Chapter 86: He’s HereRyderShe ran over to my side positioning herself as if she was ready to fight for me. I’ll destroy Olympus and every living thing who calls it home if they even think of taking her from me ever again. I stand. Ares tries to move but my aura keeps him in place. Demi looks up towards me with worry filled eyes. I kiss her forehead and using one arm I push her behind me. She sobs into my back, and it makes me want to end Zeus for causing her tears to fall.Black clouds roll over each other in the sky. Everything around us becomes even darker. Bolts of lightning travel from east to west with one flash after another. “Dramatic much?” I ask waiting on Zeus to show up. “Ryder! Shhhh!” Demi scolded.The fighting around us stopped a bit ago and Drake stepped up to my side. Zeus appeared right in front of me walking as if he was on a mission. I clenched my teeth and prepared myself. Poseidon and another god appeared at his side though I couldn’t nam
Chapter 87: Can’t Judge MeDemiI held onto him, not wanting to let Ryder go. Ryder gave me a reassuring glance then leans down to place a soft kiss on my lips. Pulling back, he let his forehead rest on mine the way he always did when he wanted to reassure me. “Demi, I promise you this. I won’t let anything, or anyone separate us ever again. Trust me.” His voice was calming, and I believed him, always.Ryder led me over to Selene. She gave him a promising look with her canine eyes. One’s that said she would take care of me. I snuggled into her silver blue fur, not knowing what else to do with myself. My heart was ready to beat out of my chest. Every step Ryder made that led him closer to Zeus made me want to vomit.Once Ryder was standing in front of Zeus they had both met in the middle. Noone was around them, but their voices could still be heard clearly. Ryder was standing tall. He was just as tall as Zeus now. “Ryder, I was ready to be done with you. You are
