ATHENA’S POV

I had told myself that I wasn’t afraid to die a few times ago. I had reminded myself that I would be much at peace dead than alive.

With Nero gone having told me what the verdict could turn out as, I stared at the space in front of me. My mind didn’t even register that my eyes should keep at alert.

I was gone in my mind, to a much quieter place that held the peace my soul needed.

“Well lookie here boys. Told you she’s a fresh one, bet even the Prince hasn’t had a taste of her cunt yet.”

I jolted awake from my day dream. I turned my head to the side and then lifted it to find three guards staring hungrily at me.

I didn’t know if it was just the sound from the one I had heard, or the fact that they had come in and I wasn’t paying attention or the look on their eyes that caused my heart to set in a panicked state.

“Been a while I had a cunt. Wouldn’t mind me having this royal one boys. I’ll take her first.”

I stared at him with eyes filled with confusion and fear.

    NERO’S POVI couldn’t contain my excitement knowing this was it. Freedom stood by my side, waiting to be granted.A part of me wanted Zavier around to bear witness to Athena’s demise and the fulfilment of my promise, where he could watch with satisfaction the justice Zara should have gotten a long time ago. But since he wasn’t, I took it as a responsibility to watch, taking in the details of today’s events so that I could tell him word for word how it happened.But to my greatest disappointed, my father chose to give her the easy way out. Something about us married being the reason she would not be banished nor killed.Why the fuck did he care about it? A man of his calibre should have keep to his word, to the laws of the pack irrespective of who broke them.What would whipping do to her? It surely wouldn’t take her life nor get us divorced for fucks sake!I had stayed in a corner ready to growl at my father and the fucking council. They had one fucking job today and they ruined it.“

  • Arranged to the Alpha Prince   They Lied to Me

    ATHENA’S POV There was no difference to what death held and the pain I had to feel. Maybe then it could be said that death sometimes allows for one to transition without pain. “I hate him,” became a chant that echoed freely in my mind. Before everyone I had to go through being whipped with the very thing meant to kill a werewolf. Because of him. He wanted me to hate him right? Silver burned the skin like acid. It was painful to the bones yet it grazed my skin when it wanted to and plucked at it like it was a ripe fruit ready for harvesting. If I thought I was used to the degree in which the pain was, the next stroke turned out worse. At first I screamed, when it landed on my body but soon my mind drifted to a place that took the pain away from me for the time being. While in that state, my eyes somehow on their own found Nero. I shouldn’t have let them find him. Because then I saw an emotion so foreign in his eyes I hated it for him and me both. And even without realising it, I

I had called out to Athena before she fell on the floor, I just didn’t realise that I wasn’t moving.Running faster than my legs could carry me; I rushed over to her and scooped her in my hands. I didn’t care that the crowd stared at me with confused expressions; I just needed my wife safe. I needed her to be okay so that I could make things right between us.I had done too many wrong things that needed to be fixed and I wasn’t going to waste any time before making sure that happened. I should have known and recognised my feelings for her. I should have known that I had somehow fallen for her in the midst of my misplaced hate for her. When I thought that all I wanted was her body, I should have known that her heart was what I craved more.She never did anything wrong and I could see that now.With her in my arms, I hurried as fast as I could towards my room. I carefully placed her down on the bed,

    ATHENA’S POVMy mind became alert, and I felt my hand twitch. I hadn’t the slightest idea for how long I had been asleep, but everywhere hurt. I was tired and a few seconds awake, I already wanted to go back to sleep.There was a lot of chaotic noise in the background that made my head bang. I started to get worried, not expecting that I would get memories from the time I lost my parents. It was something similar and it made my heart drop.I had forgotten about the reason I was on the bed and without even realising I was already on the edge of the bed, I stood to my feet.I should have known that I didn’t have strength in my legs as much as I used to. I wobbled my way out of the room with my heart racing seeing as there were people running here and there in panic.It didn’t take long for me to realize what was going on. I spotted one of them and from the scent too, I could tell it was a rogue attack.I felt adrenaline pump through my veins and I pushed myself off the wall. Something b

And when my eyes met with the Leader, I thought he could be reasoned with, that was until I got to know what he did.I should have known that Athena’s return would make him desire revenge. Athena didn’t tell me all that happened that night, not that I gave her a chance to explain how she made it out and away alive. But maybe if I had known, I would have been able to do something about it.If I had known that his son tried to rape her and she managed to escape, I would have killed him a second time for touching her.“What a hypocrite.” I heard my wolf growl at the back of my mind. “What did you expect was going to happen when you agreed to give her up as a breeder?”I hated when he his points made me feel like the bad guy. And seeing as I have had a change of heart, I really did outdo myself each time.This time I was hell bent on ensuring her safety.But no matter

    NERO’S POVAthena was still fighting for her life and it was safe to say that I was an asshole. I was still seated on the floor, waiting, hoping and praying to the moon goddess – an act I hadn’t done in a long time – that Athena would make it.She has to make it.Silver was no joke, and if I hadn’t made it get into her system on the day of her whipping then this would have been a much easier healing for her. But now that the doors were shut, there was no way to tell if the doctor has found a way to stop the bleeding.Tears continued to flow from my eyes, each bead holding the regret that I now carried. I should have known that my want for her was much deeper than having my face buried deep between her legs.And she tasted so fucking good I want that for the rest of my life.I heard footsteps, urgent and angry ones make their way to where I was seated.“Get up!” my mother snapped, pulling my arm. “You don’t get to be here, you do not have the right to, especially not when you have made

    NERO’S POV After the doctor left, my mother made sure I was put away. I was made to stay away from going close to her or even getting a glance at her. “I don’t trust you not to kill her while she’s unconscious.” She had said to me while I begged for them to let me see her. It was on me, I did this to her and now everyone else knew she was not safe around me. While we all waited through the night, my mother and a few maids walked in and out of the room. It worried me to the point where I couldn’t sit and do nothing. I pulled one of the maids aside and demanded an explanation. “The Princess is still trying to fight off the rest of the poison in her system. She has high fever that’s why Luna demands that we bring bowls of cold water so that her body can be wiped with a cloth.” The night passed by slowly but Athena made it out. I didn’t sleep a wink, I just couldn’t get my eyes to close when I knew that she was still in a critical stage. Plus, I wanted to be the one awake when day fin

  • Arranged to the Alpha Prince   The Truth

    NERO’S POV I was so close to ripping Zavier’s head off for the words he spoke. Not just because he was bold enough to speak them but solely because I knew how much of a twisted prick he could be. He could be planning to sneak into the room she was in with the intention of ending her while she was unconscious. I couldn’t let that happen. “I’m not going to lose her again.” I said to myself on my way back to the pack. I had two new missions in mind and they had to be done right away while the rest of my plan would wait until she was awake. First, I needed to have her protected at all times then I would tell my Father about the heirloom. I walked through the Palace gates with intentional steps that were ready to make a change in mine and my wife’s lives and headed for the throne room. I needed to see my Father as soon as possible but not as his son. When I got the throne room, my Father was seated with a few council men. They seemed too busy and didn’t notice me on time.

The same word had a lot of meanings that were now dear to my heart like she was.It meant her personality, the one that was brave enough to love for as long as she did, holding on to her feelings hoping I would understand the truth and fall for her. And now I did. I fucking loved her more than anything in the world.It also meant her beauty, one that took my breath away each time I looked into her eyes whether she had makeup on or not, close to her or far at a distance. It hooked me, every single time.And if I was being truthful to myself, I could say that I was attracted to her when we first got married, I was just too bitter to believe or admit it.Athena walked into the room and I couldn’t help but feel jealous and proud at the same time. Jealous because every man and woman stared at my wife, but proud because they too could see what I saw in her and what I was seeing on her appearance.This

    ATHENA’S POVI was startled awake by the noise around. It wasn’t that kind of noise – one with the screams and death, but it was one that was loud enough to have me wondering what was going on.After my work out session at the training field and my conversation with Nero’s Mother – more like she spoke and I listened – I spent the entire night barely able to sleep.I had never felt disappointed at the people who raised me but I couldn’t also deny that I was. Their act reminded me that I was not their child and for that I missed my parents dearly.I slipped out of my covers and swung over my legs till they touched the floor. I stood up and made my way out of my room, rubbing my eyes from the sleep I barely got.As soon as I opened the door, I met with the corridors being decorated. It was pretty but it confused me. “There’s going to be a ball and you’re attending.” The Queen’s words rang in my ear and I groaned.But maybe I could escape during that time. Maybe I could find a corner to h

He had said to himself severally as he felt that it truly was.Beside him in bed was his mate, his Luna Queen. She too was quite with her own thoughts, ones that drifted to her daughter now daughter in law.“It’s not your fault Leon.” She voiced out of nowhere, having heard his thoughts, the ones she had noticed had bothered him for a few days. “You couldn’t have known she was going to jump in and save us.”He sat upright from the position he was leaning into the bed on. “But it is Olivia, can’t you see. All I had to do was grant them the divorce like they both wanted.” He rubbed his temple, feeling a wave of dullness rub through him. “If we had gotten them divorced, they both would be living their lives separately. Athena wouldn’t be in so much pain because of us.”The Queen nodded, agreeing with

    ZAVIER’S POV My house was a wreck at this point but I didn’t care. I didn’t now, I wouldn’t later. “That son of a bitch ratted me out. Now I’m a fugitive!” I growled feeling the heavy weight of betrayal press me down. How could Nero stand there and watch his parents declare that I be arrested? What sort of friend was he? He hadn’t shown up at the house in a few and after our last conversation, I grew worried that he meant what he said about me letting my hate for Athena go. And how I was supposed to stay away from her. Somehow, he forgot what she had done and the promise that he made to both Zara and I. Somehow, he wanted me to just trust that he was now a changed person and I was supposed to believe him. It was hypocritical what he was doing. And I resented him for it. “What am I supposed to do now?” I groaned to myself, wanting nothing but to finish what we started. Or what I thought I wanted us to finish. I hated how I was jealous of him. I truly was. He was my friend and I

Somehow, the garden had new additions to it and it made it even more beautiful than I remembered it.While I enjoyed the view, I couldn’t help but feel sad that I wasn’t around to help with the change.I loved gardening, but no one knew that. The one time I had come down to it, Nero saw me and ordered that I never step foot in it ever again.What would he say if he saw me right now? Would he think I was tainting the beauty of the scene here?I took in another breath, releasing it about the same time my mind drifted to when he hugged me upon knowing that I was awake.That action of his was strange to say the least. I wanted answers and the Queen didn’t seem ready to answer my questions and I didn’t know why.Maybe if insisted she would have told me. Maybe that’s what I needed to do.I walked around the garden some more, letting my hands touch the flowers that bloomed a

  • Arranged to the Alpha Prince   The Actual Truth

    PLEASE NOTE CHANGE OF POV The Queen kept her eyes glued on Athena even as the doctor was checking and making sure she was completely fine like the girl was about to disappear. She had been worried about losing Athena from the moment she went unconscious during her beating down to when she was shot with the silver bullet. Her worry only grew after that but now it was such a relief to see the girl awake and kicking again. While she stared at her she couldn’t help but think about the guilt that overwhelmed her during those times and even now. She blamed herself for Athena’s misfortune, thereby promising she was going to make sure that she got her out of her marriage with Nero no matter what, especially now that she was sure he wasn’t the right man for Athena. She may have arranged for Athena to train in hopes of getting married to Nero, but now, she was going to make sure Athena got the happy ending she craved and deserved, especially with the Alpha King giving his word. While she wa

There were so many questions I knew that he wanted answers to and for the first time in a long time, my father and I were finally having a heart to heart conversation.Zavier should have been the one I should have spoken to about this, maybe even include my father but he was such a messed up fucker to even listen to a word I would say to him about my feelings changing for Athena.Well he knew, that I understood but not my father. And I knew he was going to give me the best advice if I needed him to.“I’m sorry but you’re going to have to talk plainly son.

I was unable to open them or move a muscle in my body.All that I could do was strain my ears and I heard chatters around me, some audible and the others muffled. It made me wonder what was going on. For some reason my heart started to race and I didn’t know why. Something about the noise felt oddly familiar and not in the good way.When I managed to force the eyes open, my fingers and toes twitched at well. I saw that I was back in Nero’s room. The smell was somewhat the same only that it didn’t have much of his scent left in it. It was even as if he had not been in the room in a long time.While I was still trying to gather my thoughts to what was happening around me, someone gasped in the room gasp from seeing me awake and it startled. That should have explained why some of the voices were clear enough to make out. “You’re awake, thank the goddess. She’s awake!” The Maid yelled out making me win
