~Zenaida~“I will give you twenty seconds to run. If you're not able to run away, I will rip your head from your body along with your men.”I felt my mouth widened from what Ares had mentioned towards Zyaire. My sister looks pale now while looking at me. It seemed like her eyes were pleading with me. I was about to pity her when I remembered all the bad things she did to me. She never helped me when the Red Moon Pack was about to kill me. She didn't take me out of that cell despite how I begged her.And now I am going to pity her? I shouldn't be feeling that. Zyaire didn't deserve my pity. She never thinks of me when I am about to die in the hands of the Red Moon Pack, and I have decided.“Zenaida…”She called out my name, but I gritted my teeth with her. Shaking my head off, I crossed my arms. “If you are expecting that I will help you, just don't think about it. You better remember what you did to me.”It was obvious from Zyaire's face that she looked disappointed from what I did.
~Zenaida~After Ares told me those words, he left me immediately. I could still feel my nerves shaking as I am trying to digest those words he said to me. It still doesn't want to sink in with me. I still can't believe that Alpha Ares really said those.“Zenaida, calm down. It doesn't mean anything. Just know that Alpha Ares doesn't really care about you. He was only teasing you.”I pushed myself to believe that all the words Ares had told me doesn't mean anything. I shouldn't be thinking about it. He has a lot of women, and he won't ever spend his time with me. I am just his pretending wife. I should not forget about it.After that, I decided to go back to my room, and make myself busy just to forget about what the Alpha had told me. The next morning, I woke up so early to help the kitchen staff with their work. I was relieved because I didn't see Alpha Ares. Darkness was almost coming, but I was still outside the mansion.Cassandra and Zoey were not with me because they had an impor
~Zenaida~ It was a silver wolf. His furs were sparkling in this dark night. My eyes widened upon seeing that very rare wolf. Never in my life would I see such a wolf. It was my first, and it makes me wonder who could be the silver wolf. However, it doesn't matter to me whoever he is. The important thing was that he came here just to kill this wild wolf who was about to kill me. He saved my life just before the wild wolf could kill me. I saw it with my own eyes how the silver wolf took the wild wolf's life in just a second. Never did I imagine that he could do this. I didn't expect him to be this strong. I could say, he's truly a rare wolf for having unique furs, and also for being so powerful. His presence made me tremble for no reason, but deep inside my heart, he looks familiar to me. It feels like the presence of this man is not new to me. Looks like my gut was telling me that there's something in him that I would about to unfold. The silver wolf already killed the wild wolf, an
~Zenaida~“You're worried about me?”I just want to make sure that I heard it right. Knowing that it came from Alpha Ares, it's impossible to happen. I was doubting it. He won't say those words to me.Alpha Ares just looked at me while his brows were furrowed. It's as if he couldn't believe what I have said. The pounding of my heart still doesn't stop. I could still feel its fast beat.This is all because of Ares. I shouldn't be feeling this way. This is all wrong. I will not allow him to make me this affected.“Why, I am not allowed to worry about you?”I gulped, holding the sheet of the bed so tightly.“Tell me, this is just a bad dream.”I whispered those words to myself because I can't seem to believe it. I can't believe that Ares was telling me these words that I never think he would.Where is his ruthless side?“You are not dreaming, Athena. Starting today, we will have our new rule.”My confused self from earlier was woken up after Ares mentioned those words to me. I let out a
~Zenaida~“Are you going to serve us, or just keep on chit-chatting!?”Those words rang a bell to my ears. I turned around, and saw some unfamiliar faces, but what caught my attention was the man from the middle. He was the one who uttered those irritating words based on how he looked at me. The rest of my companions were just smirking. I know some of the wolves here knew me as a weak wolf but I know how to fight. I have already learned my lesson from the Red Moon Pack, and I will not allow it to happen again here at Ares' pack.“I just don't like how you sounded to me, Asshole.”I know my words were a bit chilly but I don't care. He felt triggered about it and he's about to hit me when someone speaks behind us, making all of us turn our heads to him. My heart pounded when I found out who just arrived, looking so annoyed from what he found here.I just couldn't imagine my heart would react this way after seeing his face.“It's not good to hurt a girl.”Ares maintained the calmness in
~Zenaida~“Someone's looking for you, Alpha Ares.”As Stephen uttered those words, I couldn't stop but let out a deep breath. A woman suddenly appeared behind his back, making me look fearful. For no reason, I suddenly felt disappointed about it. I know this girl might be one of Ares' women. It's not that surprising.“Alpha Ares, I'm glad to finally meet you in person.”The girl uttered with pride. I looked at her from head to toe, trying to read her based on her physique. The way she dressed and stood, I knew that this girl was not just ordinary. She belongs to a wealthy family and she might be a daughter of an alpha.Alpha Ares on the other hand crossed his arms when the girl was about to approach him. I was just surprised because he didn't flirt with her. He used to flirt with every girl he met.“My father told me that I should pay a visit here and give you an offer of our loyalty. We would like to have a meeting with you about this.”Ares furrowed his brows from the girl's words.
~Zenaida~“I swear I will do my best to protect you. You are safe with me, Athena.”My world stopped moving after I heard those words from Alpha Ares. Never did I imagine that he would say those, and of all men, why him? Why Alpha Ares?I couldn't move my body, my mouth widened in all shock. No words came out of my mouth because I was speechless. I can't utter a word towards Alpha Ares but when I have already composed myself back, I decided to keep on going. I left him in his office without saying anything after what he said.My legs were still trembling, while my heart kept pounding so fast. I know I am being disrespectful towards the alpha because I leave him without even telling him. I was just carried away by my emotions and just hoping he would not kill me tomorrow.“Come on, Zenaida. You're supposed not to think of him.”To help myself back into normal, I encourage myself not to think of him. Ares will not affect me and there's no way he can do that to me. I should not be thinki
~Zenaida~Ares suddenly stopped from moving which made me stop as well. I could still feel my heart pounding so fast while waiting about what he would do. He turned his head back at me, his brows were still furrowed. I can't stop looking at him, deep into his eyes as he walked back to where I was standing. There were a lot of wolves looking at us, but no one dared to disturb us. As Ares was moving, it seemed like my world stopped moving as well. It seems like it's just the two of us, alone. My eyes don't want to leave him, and I don't understand myself now. No words doesn't want to come out of my mouth.And the next thing Ares did really made my mouth widened. He took off his shirt, showing me his six-pack abs. I just felt my face blushed just because of what he did.“A-Ares, what were you thinking?” I stuttered as I asked him those.His brows furrowed while looking at me, and when he realized what I just said, he began smirking. I just felt my body start trembling now seeing that sm
~Zenaida~A month had passed since Ares survived. I thought I would lose him but the Moon Goddess never allowed it to happen. She answered my prayer and now we are together. It's been a month that we thrive to maintain the peace of all the lands. Drake is the new Alpha of the Yellow Moon Pack as I passed the throne to him. I wanted to focus on taking good care of Apollo. Ares stayed as the most powerful Alpha King of all. He has maintained his position and no one can ever take that from him. After everything that happened, we are finally back with each other. I was able to forgive Ares and give him another chance to prove himself to me. It's already been one month but still, he never fails to show me how sorry he was. Ares even courted me even though I asked him not to do it. He didn't listen to me and just continued on doing it for me. I just let him because this is what makes him happy.Today, I am with the workers of the pack as we prepared an event for all the young wolves of th
~Zenaida~The person who caught the bullet that was supposed to be for me was Ares. He was shot near his heart, making him fall to the ground. I could feel my body tremble as I looked at Ares. My eyes turned at Alexander who was smirking. “Well done. I killed him.”Gritting my teeth, I ran into his direction and killed Alexander with the gun. The gun that he used towards Ares. Tears were still streaming down to my eyes as I took the life of Alexander. I would never stop not until I heard Ares. “A-Athena…”My legs were still trembling as I went back into Ares' direction. He was already hugging our son, Apollo. Apollo let him hug him. The child was confused, but his eyes seemed to recognize that the man hugging him was actually his father. There was blood flowing from Ares' wounds, so I cut his shirt to cover it and to stop the bleeding.“This is the happiest day of my life that I finally feel my son, Athena. You have no idea how you made me happy now.” I don't like how Ares sounded
~Zenaida~We were all surprised when Ares arrived where Alexander and Isabella locked us. There were enemies who followed Ares from the back, but he was able to kill them. At this moment, Alexander and Isabella's eyes were diverted to Ares. I looked at my son and she had fallen asleep. I slowly carry him and put him on the other side. I have to make sure of his safety before ending this battle. “You're still alive, huh?” Ares gritted his teeth as he entered the room. He ran in my direction. We are both facing Alexander and Isabella. Ares' arrival saved us from what these two were about to do. I can't stop rejoicing deep inside when I think about Ares. I thought he didn't care for us anymore but seeing him here made me think that he really doesn't want anything to happen to us.“A man like me will never die easily. I could still remember the reaction from your mate's face before when I pleased her before ending her life. She was calling your name while being pleased, and it's satisfy
~Zenaida~Two days had already passed since Ares came here. I was relieved because he never returns. Maybe he realized that he has no chance with me. I will never give him a chance after all the things he did to me.I just got done taking a bath when I suddenly heard a knock from the door. My heart is pounding so fast thinking about that person knocking from our apartment's door. I took the gun and hid it underneath my dress before opening it.This might be Ares. He knows where I stayed, and I will kill him when he returns. On the other hand, I could feel my heart pounding thinking that it would be him again. Just when I opened the door, I was surprised to see a lot of men outside. I took the gun out from where I hid it, but they are so fast to take it from me. I was already cornered by these men. “Who are you?”I asked with worries written on my face. These men in front of me are not familiar. I know they are not from Ares, and it bothers me so much. My heart starts pounding so fast
~Zenaida~Ares tried to follow me but Drake and the rest of my men stopped him from doing so. I carried my son, and we entered the car just before Ares could reach us. I looked at him and he kept on screaming. The pain that he felt now has nothing from the pain I have felt a year ago. Everything that he felt now, he deserved it. Ares will never have us, not even he will have a chance to hold Apollo.Drake immediately climbed on the car. We leave the pack to stay away from Ares. Apollo is still hugging me, and he doesn't know about what's happening. He's still one year old and whatever happens around him, he would never understand. All I ever wanted is to give my son a complete family but because of what Ares did to me, I don't know if I can do that. The pain was still in my heart. I was already blinded with my anger towards Ares. “Zenaida, I am really sorry. I didn't know that the pack was under attack. I didn't know that Ares was there. Apollo doesn't want to stop crying, so I have
~Zenaida~I kneel not because I am weak. This is not already about myself. I have hundreds of people behind me and I can't watch them die because of me. Alpha Ares is the most fearful Alpha to mess with. He won't hesitate to do what he said if I keep on insisting. This is my way to let him know that I am not against him.I looked at him and found out that he was looking at me. I couldn't tell what could be in his mind at this moment and I don't care. On the other hand, we are suddenly interrupted by the sound of a coming car.My heart suddenly pounded so fast when I looked at it. It's as if my body started shaking when I recognized the car. A man went out and in his arms, there's my son. I couldn't imagine what I was supposed to do upon finding out that Drake had arrived with Apollo in his hands. My eyes turned at Ares who was looking at Drake, his face darkened.I could feel my legs were shaking but I did my best to rush in Drake's direction. Apollo's eyes were filled with tears but
~Zenaida~One week had passed since the encounter between me and Isabella. I have decided to stay in the pack and focus myself on its improvement. After I encountered Ares' enemies, I realized that I should not leave the pack. I know there are threats waiting for me outside. My son needs me and to keep myself, I have to stay there.It was already six in the evening, but it's still so clear outside because of the moon's light. I was on the balcony of the house while my sister was in her room already. I couldn't sleep while thinking about Ares. He kept disturbing my head and I hated this feeling.“I will not allow you to disturb my head again.”Letting out a deep breath, I decided to go inside my room when I suddenly heard the alarm around the pack. My heart pounded so fast upon finding out the meaning of that alarm. Taking out my gun and bullets, I went out of the house to check outside.Carter and all the male wolves of the pack were gathered in the field, preparing for the upcoming g
~Zenaida~Weeks have passed already and life goes on in the pack. It wasn't just the first time that Ares and I crossed paths together. We've been together for business matters since I have already met a lot of Alpha whom I have made a deal with. However, Ares treated me like I was a stranger. He doesn't lay an eye on me which I also did. I promised myself that I would never get affected by him.It was him who did a lot of things to me and there's no way I would be affected by him. Ares has to know that whatever he will do, he cannot affect me. I came back here because of my parents' pack and not because of him. That's what he needed to know.I had a meeting with some of the alphas I made a deal with last time and Ares was there. I went out first because I don't like staying any longer while Ares is in the room. My blood doesn't stop boiling. As I opened the door of the room, I was suddenly surprised to see Isabella waiting outside.Her arms are crossed, her lips forming a smirk. It s
~Zenaida~I approached those Alphas that I know and made a deal with them. I was able to convince them without facing any trouble. After doing that, I told Carter we shall go back to the pack because it's almost in the middle of the night and our travel would take time. The Yellow Moon Pack is far from where the event was held. Carter, who was beside me and my men behind us suddenly stopped from walking. I even stopped walking when I found someone coming on our way.My world suddenly stopped moving when I saw his face. The face that ruined my life. That same face who breaks my heart into pieces and the father of my son. Ares' eyes were also in my direction, looking surprised to see me. Beside him is Isabella who is gritting her teeth and she even moved her body closer to Ares.I didn't wish to meet him in this place. I never wanted our paths to cross again after one year, but it seemed like it was our destiny to see each other once more. My men stay closer to me as their way of protec
