Chapter 27
Alpha Axel's POV
I paced back and forth in my room, my mind racing with a million thoughts. How could I be this stupid? How did I let myself get Athena pregnant? And all I could think about was Racheal.I needed to talk to her, to explain everything, to make things right. I reached for my phone and dialed her number, hoping she would pick up this time.
But the call wouldn't connect. Frustration welled up inside me, adding to the already overwhelming guilt. I needed to fix this mess, to find a way out of the tangled web I had woven.
Just as I was about to give up on reaching Racheal, the door to my room burst open, and there stood Athena.
I stood there, dumbfounded, as Athena's calmness washed over me. It was as if she had taken a deep breath and found a way to suppress her emotions. Confusion swirled within me, for I had anticipated a storm of anger, tears, or perhaps even a heated confrontation. But her deRacheal's POVI stepped into the warm embrace of the shower, feeling the cascading water as I got ready for another day. As the steam enveloped the bathroom, I couldn't help but let my mind wander, wondering what awaited me outside those tiled walls. After drying off and slipping into a fresh set of clothes, I made my way to the back of the house where my mom awaited. She stood near a peculiar structure, a greenhouse, its glass walls shimmering in the sunlight. Curiosity piqued, I approached her, my eyes widening at the sight that greeted me inside.The greenhouse was a mystical haven, filled with an array of potions, strange leaves, and exotic plants. It was as if I had stumbled upon a secret world hidden within our own. My mom turned to face me, a knowing smile playing on her lips."Welcome, my child," she said, her voice laced with a hint of excitement. "This is where the true magic happens."I couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation. "What is all this, Mom?" I asked, my
Alpha Axel's POVI woke up to another day signaling the start of another mission. Rubbing the sleep from my eyes, I quickly got out of bed and began preparing for the day ahead. As I dressed in my tactical gear, my mind raced with thoughts of the artifact we were about to retrieve.Once I was ready, I made my way towards the garage where the car was parked. Just as I reached the door, it swung open, revealing the queen herself, accompanied by the elder. I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement mixed with nervousness at their unexpected presence."Good morning," the queen greeted me with a warm smile. "We have some important news regarding the artifact."I nodded, my curiosity piqued. The elder stepped forward, "It seems the artifact is closer than we initially thought," she explained. "It's located in Woodville, which is four towns away from here."Woodville? That was a significant distance, but nothing we couldn't handle. I mentally prepared myself for the journey ahead, know
Racheal's POVAs my mom led me to the garden, her voice filled with excitement and anticipation, my heart began to race.I could feel a strange energy pulsating through my veins, as if something extraordinary was about to happen.But what puzzled me the most was the overwhelming sensation of another presence, someone I couldn't see but could feel deep within me. It was Axel, my mate, or so it seemed."Alright, sweetheart, this is the magical herb we've been talking about," my mom said, pointing at a vibrant green plant with delicate purple flowers. "To uproot it, you need to be gentle yet firm. Watch closely."As she demonstrated the proper technique, my mind was elsewhere, consumed by the inexplicable connection I felt with Axel. How was it possible to sense him, to feel his presence, when he wasn't here? It was as if our souls were intertwined, bound by an invisible thread that tugged at my heart.Suddenly, the peaceful atmospher
Alpha Axel's POVAs I walked out of Rachel's house, the weight of regret settled heavily on my shoulders. Athena followed closely behind me, sensing the tension in the air. I knew I had to make things right, even if it meant facing the consequences head on."Go to the car, Athena," I said softly, my voice tinged with determination. "I need to talk to Racheal alone."Athena hesitated for a moment, her eyes filled with concern, but eventually obeyed and trotted off towards the parked car. I took a deep breath, steeling myself for what was to come, and turned back towards the house.I approached Rachel cautiously, my heart pounding in my chest. "Rachel," I pleaded, "please, let me explain."She looked at me with a mix of anger and hurt in her eyes, clearly reluctant to hear me out. After a moment's hesitation, she sighed and reluctantly agreed. "Fine," she said curtly, "but make it quick."We walked in silence towards the backyard, the tension between us palpable. Once we reached a secl
Alpha Axel's POV As I walked away from Athena, dismissing her outburst, I entered the grand hall and found myself face to face with the queen. She sat gracefully at a small table, engrossed in conversation with an elder who sipped tea from a delicate cup. Their whispers floated in the air as I approached."Your Majesty," I began, interrupting them. The queen raised her eyebrow with curiosity, excusing herself from the elder's company. "May I have a word?"Her eyes focused on me, studying my presence. "Of course, son. Follow me," she replied, beckoning me to follow her towards the library. As we reached the wooden doors of the room, Athena swiftly closed them behind us, leaving the outside world and its distractions behind.With a sense of urgency, the queen leaned in closer, her voice hushed yet commanding. "Where is the artifact you were sent to retrieve?" she inquired, her tone filled with expectation.Regret tugged at my heart as I shook my head. "I'm afraid, Your Majesty, we wer
Athena's POVI stood outside the grand oak door, my heart pounding in my chest as I eavesdropped on the conversation taking place inside. I have always been curious by nature, and this particular conversation between Axel, and the queen piqued my interest.As I strained to catch every word, my ears perked up when I heard Axel's voice. "I want to mate Athena as soon as possible," he declared, his tone filled with determination. My eyes widened in surprise, my breath catching in my throat. I had never expected him to express such a desire so openly.Just earlier today, Axel had seen Racheal, the love of Axel's life. I had hoped that their connection would deter him from pursuing my mating with Axel. But now, as I listened to Axel's words, I realized that my plan had worked. My fake pregnancy had successfully pinned him to me, and Racheal was now a thing of the past.My heart swelled with a mix of emotions. I couldn't deny the satisfaction that surged through my at Axel's words, knowing
Racheal's POVAs I stepped back into the house, my mother looked up from her book and raised an eyebrow. "What were those people looking for?" she asked, her voice filled with curiosity.I took a deep breath, trying to gather my thoughts. "They were looking for an artifact," I replied, my voice filled with a mix of excitement and concern. "The compass led them to our house, and they said they needed it to cure a disease that broke out among the werewolves."My mother's expression remained unreadable as she listened to my explanation. She didn't say anything for a moment, her eyes searching mine for answers. Finally, she nodded and beckoned me to follow her into her room.Once inside, she walked over to a seemingly ordinary wall and pressed a hidden switch. With a soft click, a section of the wall slid open, revealing a secret compartment. My eyes widened in surprise as she reached inside and pulled out a small, exquisite gem.She turned to face me, holding the gem delicately in her h
Athena's POV Time for the mating ceremony with Alpha Axel drew nearer, my heart raced with anticipation. I couldn't believe that I was finally going to become Luna, the mate of the love of my life. It was a dream I had all my life, and now it was about to come true.Standing in front of the mirror, I admired myself in the beautiful and gorgeous dress that had been specially made for this occasion. The perfect lace work and the flowing fabric made me feel like a princess. I couldn't help but smile at my reflection, knowing that soon I would be standing by Alpha Axel's side, as his equal and partner.Just as I was lost in my thoughts, my parents walked into the room. My mother held a small box in her hands, a glimmer of excitement in her eyes. I knew what it contained, and my heart skipped a beat. It was the necklace, a family heirloom that I had been begging her to give me for years now."Sweetheart, it's time," my mother said. "This necklace has been passed down through generati

Davina laughed as she held her hands.“Thank you so much sis, I love the decorations,” Rachel said as she glanced around.“I think that should be me, you should be thanking” Sam appeared from the back as she hugged Rachel, her face etched with a bright smile. “Congra
ALPHA AXEL'S POV.I ran inside the cottage as soon as I broke the door, my face flickered with shock as I saw Stephen holding Ardolf's head. I clenched my fists in anger, as tears brimmed in my eyes, I couldn't believe both my mother and brother were killed by the same people.“How dare you?” I shouted angrily as anger flared up in my veins. “You are indeed a monster,” I snapped.“Oh, you mean this?” He scoffed, raising Ardolf's head. “I thought you might want it as a gift” he chuckled.“Enough” Rachel commanded, her voice laced with venom as she walked in. “He is mine” her voice mixed with Mira's.“Rachel…” Stephen scoffed. “I heard you lost your children, I am so sorry for your loss” he scoffed. “Vampires were never my favorite, I had always hated them” Rachel eyed as she walked closer.“Bitch” Stephen cursed as he ran to Rachel, pushing her out the door and they both landed on the ground. “You shouldn't have” Stephen shouted as he tried choking her.My eyes opened in alarm and I t
AUTHOR'S POV.The evening sun cast long shadows on the ground. The slanting rays of the setting sun gave a warm orange tinge to the sky, the sky was ablaze with the fire of the setting sun. The forest was filled with the sounds of chirping birds as they flew around the forest. The air filled with smoke coming from the chimney of a small cottage in the forest.“I can't believe Athena's dead” Ardolf's voice echoed through the forest, his voice laced with venom as he slammed his fists into the wall. “What are we going to do? He shouted at Stephen.Stephen immediately burst into laughter as he stared at Ardolf. “Athena brought this on herself, I warned her but she didn't listen to me and she met her demise as a consequence” Stephen scoffed.“I told you to wait, but none of you wanted to listen, Stephen just has to let his greed drive him in pursuit of the last piece of artifact, Ardolf desperately wanted the throne and Athena wanted revenge…” Cara paused as she glared at Stephen. “Sounds
RACHEL'S POV.I woke up with excruciating pain in my head, I could hear high-pitched ringing in my head, I slowly opened my eyes, and I was in a room. “What happened?” I muttered as I tried sitting up, “How did I get here?” I asked.“Rachel, are you okay,” Alpha Axel asked as he helped me up. “Are you okay?” He asked, his voice laced with concern.“What happened?” I asked as I scratched my hair in confusion. “ Why don't I remember anything?” I scoffed.“You don't remember anything?” Alpha Axel asked as he stared at me, his brows furrowed in curiosity.“I remember running with…” I paused as my memories started flooding back, my eyes widened in fear as I remembered we had been attacked by Luthus. “You don't need to stress yourself,” Alpha Axel said as he held my hand with a reassuring smile.“Luthus,” I said. My heart hammered loudly in my chest. “Luthus attacked us” I revealed, fear etched on my face.“And you killed it, you killed Luthus” Sam revealed as she walked closer. “You kill
AUTHOR'S POV.Alpha Cole and Alpha Axel sat quietly in the room, Alpha Axel's face etched with a mixture of seriousness and concern. Alpha Axel was brows furrowed in confusion as he thought about Alpha Cole's revelation, immediately they heard a scream followed by the alarm bell.“What was that?” Alpha Axel asked as he jerked up, exchanging glances with Alpha Cole. “The alarm bell” Alpha Cole answered, his brows furrowed in concern. “It seems we have an intruder,” he explained.“Intrude?” Alpha Axel asked, his mouth fell open in disbelief. “Could it be Stephen?”.“No, Stephen knows better than to attack the Whispers in their territory”. Alpha Cole explained as he walked out, Alpha Axel followed him outside quietly.Alpha Axel and Alpha Cole walked out quietly as they searched around for any suspicious movement. “Let’s go to the gate,” Alpha Cole suggested. “We need to know what is happening first,” he explained.“I need to check if Rachel and Davina are safe,” Alpha Axel said and ma
RACHEL'S POV.“Are you sure of what you are saying?” I asked as I stared blankly at Arya, I couldn't believe Athena was on the train.“I saw them talking but that was before Alpha Cole came” she explained.“But Alpha Axel didn't tell me anything,” I said as I bit my lips, fear and anxiety etched on my face.“Maybe he didn't want to make you worried,” Arya said, immediately opening the door, revealing Sam.“We are under attack” Sam revealed as she hurriedly walked towards us. “We need to get you to safety”.“But we just got here,” I said, exchanging glances with Arya, as I gasped for air in fear.“Luthus has penetrated the palace,” Sam said as she dragged me, Arya followed behind.“I can attack it, I think I know of a stronger spell”. Arya revealed as she trailed behind us.“Should I remind you that the Whisper pack and black witches do not get along?” Sam scoffed as she led us to a dark passage.“I grew up with Teresa, isn't she the black witch that works for the Whispers, I can pose
ALPHA AXEL'S POV.Alpha Cole led me into his father's place, the mansion was so big and spacious, and its wall was covered in pure gold, different statuses stood across the hallway, they were the status of every Alpha, Luna, great sentinels and elder who had given or devoted their lives to the Whisper pack.“What were you discussing with Athena?” Alpha Cole asked, breaking the silence.“Nothing much”. I shrugged. “She wasn't saying anything meaningful, she just kept on blabbering about how she is a victim and how she will take revenge” I scoffed.“We are here” he paused as he turned to me, his face contorted with seriousness. “My father hasn't yet approved of our alliance, so please do not do anything to annoy him” Alpha Cole warned before opening the door.The door opened revealing a bright room, the room had a very pleasant scent, it was filled with different shelves that contained many books, and a wine bar was located at the side. The room was etching with luxury.“Welcome home so
ALPHA AXEL'S POV.I slowly turned my head as I glared at the lady, my fist clenched as I gritted my teeth, fire evident in my eyes. “Athena” I muttered angrily, my eyes started glowing as my claws grew longer, I was ready to attack. “You finally showed your face,” I scoffed.“I have always been by your side, sometimes but you never noticed,” she laughed.“It is good that you finally came to see me because this time I can finally kill you for good” I glared at her, but immediately my face flickered to shock as she burst into laughter.“Axel you haven't changed, you are still that boastful and proud shit but somehow you always look charming unfortunately I have changed, I have become stronger than you could ever imagine” she scoffed, her voice laced with pride.“I had always hated you after I knew you had become a vaewolf, I couldn't believe you would stoop so low, and now I just feel pity” I shook my head in disappointment, my voice laced with pity.“Don't you dare pity me” she snappe
AUTHOR'S POV.“Are you ready Rachel?” Alpha Axel asked as he approached her, carrying two bags filled with his belongings.“Almost ready,” Rachel answered. “I can't believe today's the day to travel to the Whisper pack, what do you think the Whisper pack would look like?” Rachel smiled as she folded her clothes neatly and arranged them in a box.“I don't know but all I care about is for you to be safe, and to bring Brandon back and finally get rid of Stephen, Ardolf, Athena and Cara” he explained, gritting his teeth, “I would be waiting for you outside,” he said and walked out. Immediately the door opened and Lucien walked in. “Rachel” he called, his face etched with seriousness and remorse. “I heard you guys were leaving today, is it safe for you and your babies?” He asked, his voice laced with concern.“It's fine, we don't have a choice,” she smiled. “What are you doing here and where is Davina?” Rachel asked as she locked eyes with him.“She was coming with me but I told her to wa
