ATHENA’S POV“You’re a pretty little thing and I cannot wait until we get to the base to have you.”I was more than furious but I knew better than to say anything. I didn’t want to have them pin me to the floor on the dirt like Zavier did. The thought of him even thinking to try something like that made me shiver with disgust. Imagine my reaction now when I know that these men were far from clean. I gagged.We have been walking for some time now and I was getting tired. They however didn’t look like they were going to stop walking any time soon. It was something about making sure that Nero and Zavier kept their end of the deal and the rogue leader, who I now know as Fred, didn’t want to take any chances.“I’m quite tempted to make everyone stop just so that I can enjoy you here and now. But don’t worry, I’m a patient man and I can wait.”He was walking too close to me, touching my arms a few times. He was tempted to take me and I was tempted to kill him right there and then.“Calm dow
ATHENA’S POVRelief, that’s all I felt whilst floating in the water. Nothing about it was calm, if anything I should be watching out for water falls but here I was, glad that no only were my hands free, I was away from the rogues.I stayed in the water for what seemed like hours until I saw from afar something that caught my attention – The pack, the Palace.A smile broke on my face, no wonder I didn’t feel like stepping out of the water, I must have felt connected to it somehow. It could have also been because I didn’t want to risk being followed by them.Realising the river must have been connected to the one in the pack, I said a silent prayer to the moon goddess for looking out for me. This was the first time things were turning in my favor and it was a good feeling to see it happen.The sun had set a while ago and it was already dark, I wondered how long I had been in the water. I spotted a branch and while the river flowed I grabbed onto it before pulling myself out of the water
NERO’S POVI couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw her. A sense of relief flowed through my body and I could feel my tensed muscles relax and my worry gone.She’s alive. She’s fucking alive. I could hug her right now, that’s what I thought before snapping myself out of it.But she stared at me with such contempt in her eyes and I never thought a day would come where Athena’s eyes would hold a single trace of grudge for me. And I didn’t know why it hurt hearing her say that she hated me with the most poisonous venom her voice could carry.Did I finally push her to that point?I watched as she left in a hurry, I wanted to know if she was okay and how she made it home alive. Did she make a different kind of deal with the Rogue leader?I stood outside her door and from here, I could hear soft sobs and I knew she was crying. The sound could barely be heard but my wolf was sure she was in tears. I felt somewhat guilty knowing I was the reason she was in tears but I needed to know what happene
ATHENA’S POVIt’s been a few days since the rogue incident and Nero eating me up like the food he craved. To him it was some sort of punishment and it was, but it was humiliating knowing that he could control my body like that. What’s worse was not being able to stop it even with the anger fuelling my body.I repulsed every thought of him that crossed my mind and I hated most the stupid butterflies that erupted when those thoughts came. He was making my life miserable but why couldn’t he just leave my mind alone?So for anytime I was about to leave my room, I made sure to steer clear from places he was and locked my room whenever I was in it.I got dressed and went downstairs for breakfast, I knew it was time for me to stop hiding in my room and making excuses instead of joining them at the table. I had shown Nero how strong I was and how I wasn’t going to let him put me down easily. But as I sat and waited for them, my heart thumped knowing he was going to be at the table as well.I
NERO’S POVI hit her, right on the face without meaning to. One moment I was on the other side of the table, the next I was right in front of her.I was just fucking pissed at her for trying to defy me. It was already bad enough that I couldn’t get her out of my stupid mind.Ever since that day, the thought of her moans and her gripping my hair was the only thing I could think about. Not to mention how fucking good she tasted when I fucked her with my tongue.If I had taken her that day, I knew I was done for because I would have gotten addicted to tasting her and obsessed with having her.I had found myself having wet dreams of her. Or having an abrupt boner just because an image of her popped up which meant that I had to jerk myself off to those images especially with the hard on refusing to go down.It was not only exhausting but also fucking annoying that I wanted her that much.But I was glad that my parents, especially my father didn’t try to stop me.I knew his weak point conce
ATHENA’S POVI couldn’t understand what made Nero sour this morning. But I knew it had to do with me. The fact that he hit me was more than a wakeup call for me to kill whatever feeling I had left for him.What I wasn’t ready for was seeing Zavier but it was to be expected that he’d be at the training ground. He was Nero’s best friend and they did almost everything together after all.I was too stunned to move when I saw him. I already knew the something bad was going to happen, with them together they always had things planned.I was even more horrified to hear Nero tell me that I was to be a punching bag and not block any blow Zavier was going to throw at me.“He’s going to kill me you know that.” I exclaimed my heart racing painfully. I was scared for my life.“Well then it’s about time that happened don’t you think? I mean it would be fair for him to be the one to take your life like you took his sister’s. You should be glad that I’m not the one doing it.”Nero answered casually l
ATHENA’S POV I woke up alone and covered in dried blood and dirt. Every muscle on my body ached and I felt like I had been run over by a truck, not to mention the headache that seemed to grow as the thought of me getting up from the position I was laying on. I was going to kill myself, to end it all and I wondered what it would have felt like if I did.. Would Nero feel guilty for pushing me to die like he wanted? Or would he celebrate? I tried to turn my body to the other side because the side I was on was killing but the move alone shot waves of pain through my body. I groaned in pain, noticing that the training ground was not only empty but dark as well. When I managed to pull myself to sit, I was already breathing hard. It was that much work. It was even worse when I had to stand on my feet. What should have taken me minutes, took me close to an hour of dragging myself to my room. I pushed the door open, and dragged myself in. Once the door was shut I walked to my wardrobe,
NERO’S POVMy heart tugged in my chest painfully as I watched Zavier have his feast of punches on Athena. As always, I had to pin whatever was making me feel that way for her down. I didn’t want to care and I hated that a part of me did.When he was done, he and I left her on the floor unconscious. It took everything in me not to run up to her and check if she was alive.But I had to remind myself that she deserved every bit of what she was getting. I was going to allow Zavier do anything he wished with her except take her.During dinner when she didn’t show, my parents questioned me on her whereabouts where I had to pretend that I didn’t know where she was. I didn’t know if they were just respecting my wishes or they just stopped caring about her, either way I was glad she wasn’t getting pampered by them anymore nor did they pester me about where she could be.Things were back to the way they were supposed to be before she came into our lives and I was enjoying it.Once dinner ended
