~Zenaida~Ares carried me like a bride as we went back to where our car was. I tried to convince him to put me down but he's not listening. He still wanted to continue what he was doing with me and I just let him until we returned from our pack. We were just quiet the whole ride and it's not because I was ashamed of him. It's because we just felt the moment of being with each other. Ares imprisoned me in his arms while we were traveling back. I just let him until I remember something.“What about your men?”Ares furrowed his brows. A smile formed on his lips because of my sudden question to him.“My men were able to escape before the game started. They are back to the pack now.”I was just surprised from what I've heard.“Do you mean, you already know that my sister's husband no longer has your men before the game?”Ares nodded his head that made me sigh. I really have no idea about what's running in his mind. I know I failed to ask about this earlier but I respect Ares. He's not oblig
~Zenaida~As I said those words to him, Ares stood up from sitting next to me. He turned his back at me, facing the window. I bit my bottom lips from what he did and I thought he was annoyed because I mentioned Alexander's name. However, I never expected what he said next to me.“If I just had the chance of killing him for you, I would have. Alexander was an ass for doing that to you. You didn't deserve to be fooled. He fooled you and if he was alive, I would kill him for your peace.”Tears started to form in my eyes again as I heard those words from him. Ares is sincere with the words he left and it's obvious based on how he looked at me. His eyes were telling me that he didn't really like the idea that I dream about him.“But he's dead, Ares. You have no idea how I wanted to attack him for giving me so much pain. He was the reason my life was almost destroyed. I would also kill him if he's just alive but no. He's dead and I can't do anything about it. I can't avenge what happened to
~Zenaida~After almost an hour of travelling, I noticed some houses on our way. I can't help but look at it. Upon seeing the place, all I could feel was relief. It seems like the place has a part in my heart that I couldn't even understand about. I've never been in this pack. I know that I didn't visit this pack but I could feel that I've been here before.On the other hand, I just felt Ares pressed my hand, which made me look at him. He was already looking at me, while his brows were furrowed.“Ares, what pack is this?”Ares let out a deep breath before answering me.“This is Moonlight Pack, Athena. One of my ally packs. This would be our first destination.”I nodded my head from what he said. I wasn't able to utter a word with him when Stephen already opened the door for us. Ares and I got out of the car and I couldn't help but be amazed upon seeing the place. The pack is beautiful as it is surrounded with beautiful trees and there were even plants in here. Although this is smaller
~Zenaida~Tears suddenly fell from my eyes as I heard those words from Audrey. She just mentioned to me that I looked like my mother's father and I've realized a lot of things. My mother and I didn't have a nice relationship. I haven't felt the love that a mother should pour to her child. All my life, I was like a slave who followed orders from them. She never defended me when dad beat me up. Mom didn't take good care of me when I was sick and just let the maid do their job. She doesn't support me when I make achievements and most of all, she wasn't with me when the Red Moon Pack wanted to kill me.All this time, I reminded her of her father, who she hated so much that she thought he didn't care about her. All the questions in my head were now answered. I thought I wasn't their biological daughter because of how they treated me. Perhaps, they were just being so rude to me because I reminded them about my mom's father. The Alpha who didn't give the pack to Ailani, my mother.And it hur
~Zenaida~I stepped back when a group of men entered the room. My heart started pounding so fast when I realized that these men in front of us were not part of Ares' men. On the other hand, I felt Ares' men beside me, trying to protect me from them.“Are you Ares' wife?”One of these men started asking me. I can't stop swallowing my saliva thinking what they want from me.“You are not allowed to come near us. Alpha Ares will not show you mercy!”I heard those words from one of my husband's men. They are trying to stop them from getting near us. However, the enemies seemed deaf. They started walking into our direction with a smirk on their lips. I know I wasn't trained enough to fight, but I will not allow them to stay close with us. I will not allow them to use me against Ares. Maybe by fighting back these men, I could already help Ares.“We are not scared about your Alpha. We need her and no one will stop us from getting her!” They ran into my direction. I just froze in my position
~Zenaida~Beta Stephen told us that they already found the body of my aunt not far from the village. She's dead already and it really made my heart shattered into pieces. I can't stop crying for my aunt's life. I just can't imagine that she would be gone this early. She hasn't given another chance to reconcile with my mother. Aunt Audrey died so early.The Moonlight Pack lost their Alpha already. Ares already found out those men that attacked my aunt's pack based on what the wolves said who lived here. The pack has an enemy from the neighboring pack and they are the reason for the attack today. Worse, Ares found out that the one who attacked the Moonlight Pack was also one of his allied packs. It suddenly angers me because my aunt's life was taken. That pack has to pay for killing her as well as for killing those innocent wolves because of their attack.We buried the body of Aunt Audrey. Darkness has finally arrived and we decided to stay the night. Ares was planning an attack for the
~Zenaida~I was looking at him, my eyes seemed shocked upon what I had heard. The way Ares told me that I was already his weakness brought so much confusion in my head. It also fears me because once the enemies find out about it, they would never hesitate to use me against him. Ares has to know that it's time for him to teach me. It's time that I should learn to defend myself. This way, he doesn't need to worry about me that much because I already know how to defend myself. Enemies can no longer touch me because I also have acquired the skills just like Ares.It's also a great help for Ares because he doesn't need to worry about me when enemies suddenly appear in front of us. All he can think of is the pack. As long as I could, I am willing to risk my life to protect his people, to protect the place who accepts me, and fight for the pack who gives me another hope.“Just teach me everything, and you will have nothing to worry about, Ares.”Ares took my hand and pressed his lips against
~Zenaida~ No one expected that I would come out from the car, not even Ares. He was in shock from what I did which made him unable to do something as the enemies turned their attention on me. They began hissing while their eyes on me. I know they are going to attack me but before they do that, I did prepare the gun.The enemies began running to my direction but before they could even come near me, I started shooting them, all of them. Ares and his men went back into fighting to help me beat these enemies. I never imagined that I would be able to conquer my fear when it comes with killing. If I was still the same as before, I probably passed out now when I saw blood but the moment I saw how they attacked Ares made me forget that I have fears. The thing that I was thinking from earlier is to save him. To help him beat all the enemies who dared to get on his way and this is what I am doing now.We are able to beat all the enemies and no one dared to fight him. The rest of the men from t
~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
