I was resting on top of a tree when Nikki, followed by Lisa and Katie showed up. They wanted me to go down and follow them back to the packhouse.
“Athena,” Nikki said begging.
“I promise to tell you everything I know, right now it is not safe for you to be out here.”
“Athena please trust us,” Lisa pleaded.
I looked down at them without saying a word. They belong to Purple Hill; how can I trust them? I know that they are my friends and so far both Lisa and Katie have been so good to me. But then I know that they were only doing the job that Drake asked them to do. There is a part of me that knows that I mean more to them than just some assignment, but there is also a part of me that is having a hard time just accepting that fact.
The first time that I opened my eyes I saw Leon, Calvin, and Nori. All of them were excited to see me, but I was so tired that I found myself drifting back to sleep. The second time I opened my eyes, I saw Nikki talking to Athena’s Aunt. Sadly, none of the words that they spoke was audible enough for me to hear. Everything was silent to the point that it was deafening. And once again I drifted back to sleep. The third time my eyes opened I saw Nikki, Calvin, Nori, and Leon. Leon was leaning on the far wall near the window. Nori as usual is making fun of Calvin, while Nikki sat beside Calvin. My head felt heavy and my body was aching, is this how it feels before you die? I could hear several voices but the words were inaudible. The sound was getting
If there was something good that came out of the battle with Archer, it was that I can finally walk. Because of what had happened to Athena, I was only able to ask Lisa and Katie to fill me in on all the things that I have missed after I block out from almost dying. Katie said that I was healed with Athena’s power and blood. While Lisa told me how amazing Athena was in battle. She also told me that Athena has not yet shifted because she needed all her physical strength to control her powers during the battle. On the other hand, Calvin told me that Athena can move things without physically doing it and also knows how to shield someone or something. Her strength was immeasurable even in human form that she was able to defeat Archer without sacrificing a lot of our warriors. Because of her powers, Athena was so exhausted after the battle that she also fell into a long sleep.
It’s been a long time since I went home to the packhouse. It was quiet and dark. I decided to go straight to my room and sleep. I know that I was walking towards my room but instead of going straight inside I stood in front of the door of the room opposite mine. My hand reached for the doorknob and opened it. The biggest change that happened in the room was to lose its owner. I remember how Athena hovered over the door as she started our conversation as she mistakenly took Nikki as my girlfriend instead of my sister. I walked towards the bed and found myself lying down on it. There was still a faint smell of brewed coffee mixed with Athena’s sweet vanilla scent. I was not sure if I could really smell it or if I was just imagining it based on my memory. I closed my eyes as I tried to remember Athena’s smiling face.
After Nori arrived I left some instructions to Calvin. He needed to stay behind to keep things running while I was away. Parker and Nori assigned themselves as my drivers, I offered to drive as well but they did not allow me to. Instead, Parker and Nori took turns in driving, stopping only for gasoline and to buy food. It was a grueling three-day drive to reach the state where Athena was, but it didn’t matter. What matters is that I will be seeing her again. We arrived late in the afternoon and Leon met us. Leon rented a bigger room, which was a combination of two rooms converted as one. There was a small divider to separate the living room and the place where the beds were placed. The bedroom consists of four single beds, two beds on one side and the other two on the opposite side. The living room has a couch and a flat-screen TV. Just a few steps away
It’s been months since Aunt Jess and I have left Purple Hill. Since then I had been stopping myself from running back there just to check if Drake was ok. If I had healed him properly. ******* ‘You know that there is nothing wrong with checking up on him right?’ Leia said. ‘And you know very well that I can’t do that,’ I snapped back at her. ‘Promises are meant to be broken,’ Leia shrugged, ‘Especially if it’s for a good cause.’ ‘Stop it,’ I said with a sigh. ‘Just take this time to sleep or find out why I can’t still shift.’ ‘Maybe instead of asking me to look for ways, why don’t you do something about it?’ She retorted.
He’s here. I can sense him, I can feel him. I missed him. I wanted to look for him but I know I can’t. If I want to make my plan work I need to keep myself together and I need to calm down. ********* ‘Alpha is here, oh my god Drakey is here,” Leia said as she ran around in my head with so much happiness. ‘You’re not helping,’ I sigh at her. ‘You know that the solution is easy, you just enjoy making things harder than it’s supposed to be.’ ‘If you have nothing helpful to say will you just shut up?’ I begged. It’s already hard for me to control myself from running toward him. ‘I want to see Drakey, I want to see h
I stared at the closed door for a long time. So this is how it ends. Is this the end? Can this even count as the end? It shouldn’t be counted as the end since she can’t even remember me. I can’t stop thinking about how absurd this whole situation is. Would it have been easier if she just told me that she didn’t love me instead of saying she didn’t know me? My heart is breaking and the person that could stop it from happening just left me. All the questions I wanted to ask were held prisoners in my mind giving me headaches. “I think we should leave,” Nori whispered. I tilted my head back and closed my eyes as I try to calm my restless mind. But it won’t stop working, it keeps me giving all those memories
The drive home was long and quiet. The only stops we made were to buy food, gas, or rest for the night. We were not in the rush to go home, especially me. After leaving the place where Athena was staying I started to feel numb. I can sense how worried Nori, Leon, and Parker are but they did not ask me anything. They respected me enough to give me some space. They just make sure that I eat and if I was still alive. As we enter the border of Purple Hill I saw some of our runners as they ran through the woods. Upon reaching the gates of the mansion, I saw Calvin was waiting with Nikki for us. I got off the car and decided to just walk straight into my room. “You’re home,” Nikki whispered. I stopped and look at her but decided not to say a word. T
Hi, Purplelites!It’s been a while since the last time I left you a message. For those who are new, I welcome you with a warm heart. By the way, I have already started with the third and last book called Saving My Alpha. I hope that this book will answer all the unanswered questions that you have. Saving My Alpha is the continuation of both Claiming My Alpha and Redeeming My Alpha and more. The timeline takes place before Anya turns 18 and is about to shift with her wolf. I know that you miss Little Mikey and Baby Anya and Mikey’s cute claim that Anya would be his Luna. And are all curious if they would really be Fated Mates? All of that will be addressed in Saving My Alpha. Not only that but new characters will be revealed and some old ones will also make a reappearance. And that’s not all, the final battle between good and evil will finally be set. Will they finally get the peace that they have all been fighting for? And at what cost? Once again, thank you all for your const
Hi, Purplelites!It’s been a while since the last time we had a talk. And for those who are new to Claiming My Alpha, I welcome you with a warm heart. By the way, I have already started the second book which is entitled Redeeming My Alpha, I know that some might be a bit disappointed with the way things have ended with Claiming My Alpha, but let me just tell you that the fight is not over yet. Just to give you a brief insight about Redeeming My Alpha, it’s a bit of a slow-burn kind of story. But it will give you a deeper knowledge as to what has happened to Purple Hill before the timeline in Claiming my Alpha and continue to the current timeline. It will tell the story of Dana, Lana, Nori, and Seth, before and after the first attack on Purple Hill. A story about family, friendship, sisterhood, love, secrets, and the looming threat that seems to not only affect Purple Hill but all the Packs in the region comes to threaten the peace and lives of people who live there. As they finally
“I didn’t find her,” the weakling explains frantically as he kneels before us, “But you are right they have a mage with them but it was not Drake’s mate.” “Interesting,” Ares replied. I looked at my love and couldn’t help myself smile. He was everything that I asked for. Everything that I needed. And I wouldn’t let anyone harm him, especially that powerful Luna I keep hearing. No one is more powerful than my Mate Ares. And no one will be more powerful than I am. We are the indestructible couple, and we have proven that time and time again. That’s why people feared us. They would all fall on their knees as they beg for mercy asking us to save their lives. “So there is another mage lurking in Purple Hill,” Ares said with a smile. I know that smile, that’s the smile he has when he’s interested in something. Even if he doesn’t say it, I know that he was disappointed to know that Drake was alive. But it didn’t seem to bother him much before especially after knowing that Drake was actu
What’s my favorite time of the day? Well, if you ask my friends you will hear common answers like recess or lunch break. But then again I am not your ordinary girl, I am the daughter of the two most powerful and influential people in Purple Hill, the so-called Alpha King, and the Extraordinary Luna. Yep, I am a product of the most talk-about love story in Purple Hill. It was so beautifully told that it seemed like it came from one of those fairy tale books. Like my parents are characters from a happily ever after book. Well, enough about them. This is my story now. I know that their story has not yet ended and yes, after all those years there is still a threat to our freedom. That is why my parents, especially my father and his most trusted Alpha friends created an elite force that includes one of the most important people in my life. But before I go talking about him non-stop, let me answer the question I was asked earlier. What is my favorite time of the day? What else wou
If the world is perfect there will be no pain. If the world is perfect there will be no tears. If the world is perfect there will be no wars. If the world is perfect then there will be no bad people. If the world is perfect then we won’t lose the people we love. Unfortunately, the world was never built that way. It’s been two years since that dreaded day but it still feels like yesterday. I later found out that we were not the only pack who were attacked that day. Some of my alliance pack lost their Alpha, while some totally lost their pack as a whole. The number of lives that were lost because of the greediness of some is something I have always hated. “Dwaddee, dwaddee,” Anya shouts happily as she runs towards me wearing a cute bathing suit. “Anya, don’t run,” Mikey shouted behind her, “You might fall.” And Anya did fall. I was about to stand up and go to her afraid that she got hurt or that she will cry. But she didn’t. She slowly stood up and started wiping the
Regrets… Always comes in the end… It’s funny how God gave us the power of free will. The greatest power that ever existed. The decision to make a choice. Unfortunately, such power is not easy to use. Because with each decision that we make comes the consequences of such a choice. I stood in at the locked door of the operating room banging the door wanting it to break open. I am here because of the choice I made. A decision made by myself who was under a spell. I know that all of what is happening now was the result of the decision I made. And yes, I have no one else but myself to blame. Did you know that when there’s regret, the what-ifs question comes next? Like, what if I listened to Calvin and have Lana check on me sooner? What if I did not leave the packhouse and just stayed in Little Wolf’s room just like what Athena does when she’s so mad at me? What if, I was not placed under that fucking spell? What if? And I know that no matter how many what if’s I ask, nothing is goin
“Athena!” I smiled or at least I tried, as I recognize who the voice belongs to. “That’s it, baby,” Drake said as he looks down at me. “Keep your eyes open,” I can feel the desperation in his voice. I wanted to reassure him but I don’t want to give him any false hope. I don’t really know what’s gonna happen to me. ‘Leia,’ I called out for my wolf, ‘Can you hear me?’ I called out but there was no reply. I felt so weak but I can’t release the shield I placed on Little Wolf. Not until I know that she can be safe. ‘I’m sorry,’ I said weakly through the mind link with Drake. His eyes grew big and I knew that he heard me so I tried again. ‘I love you.’ ‘I love you too, baby,’ Drake said as he held me a little tighter than before. Then he looks at the person in front of him and shouted, “Why is she not healing? She is my mate for god’s sake! I should have healed her already!” “I am surprised as well Alpha,” A voice of a man answered, “I am just as clueless as you are. I am not sure
I lost… I don’t know what happened or how it happened. But here I am in a fetal position as I protect my tummy because of Little Wolf. Nori was lying lifeless once again just a few feet away from me. He did all that he could to protect me and try to put down Sam on his own. But because of his wounds and the countless rogue wolves that have made it impossible not only for him but for me as well. “Why do you keep resisting?” Sam asked as he stood over me in human form. “I am not resisting anything,” I told him, “You are the one who is insisting on something that doesn’t exist.” ‘I don’t really care if you feel the same way or not,” Sam said arrogantly, “What matters to me is that you are mine.” “I will never be yours, Sam,” I don’t care if I receive more anger from him. Because, I will never, ever tell him something that isn’t true. I will never give him the satisfaction of hearing the words that he wanted to hear. “What is it about that stupid Drake that you love?” Sam asked, “
‘At this rate, we would all die,’ Leia said, as I continue panting. I was out of shape. It’s been months since the last time I had any physical training. ‘Then make sure that we won’t,’ I said to Leia. ‘That’s a quite a demanding request isn’t it?’ Leia responded. ‘Does it seem like you have a choice?’ I asked her as I bit the head off of the wolf in front of me, ‘Remember, if I die, you die.’Death is something that I am not prepared to face right now and I can feel that Leia also feels the same. I still have so many plans and things that I wanted to do. At the same time, I don’t want Little Wolf to grow without me. I am not saying that Aunt Jess did a bad job raising me because that’s just not true. I guess what I was trying to say is there are times and things that I wish I could do or talk about with my mom. “I feel helpless Athena,” Nicolo shouted. I know how he feels but I don’t want him to feel that way. I don’t blame him and I would never let him fight when he is at a disa
