Theseus's POV

It's physically draining to keep myself invisible in this realm.

I've never had a problem with practising this specific ability before, but I've been using it non-stop for a few days, so I'm tiring far sooner than I'd like.

It's been aeons since I've walked among my people, or Celeste's, for that matter.

There's the thing about being a god. Your life comes privileged and cursed.

I've always said that we need to be with our people to know our people, but alas, gods are not known for being as one with their creations.

It wasn't always this way for me. I once was a man like any of those around me now.

I was a gifted witch with the ability to disappear and teleport.

Apparently, my bloodline heritage had left me the inheritance of my kind.

It would have been nice to know and have a heads-up that I would be left in charge of our kind for an eternity—stuck up there in the god realm watching over those who I create.

That I would have needed to pledge my life to an eternity of s

    Lilith's POV The evening had dragged past as I stood watching the women speak about everything and nothing and me... Everyone had noted the mark that evidentally sat on my neck, and I had wondered what exactly they had been interested in, why it was so magnificent to them. It wasn't until everyone had left and I was allowed to retire to my room, the one I have always stayed in... the one I showered that I had the chance to see what was so enthralling. I looked into the mirror, free of steam from the shower this time. My once burning purple mark was now a deep black trifecta. The mark makes a strange six-looped shape. Well, at least it isn't burning bright purple now... and saying that, as I look at myself, I notice my eyes, too, have changed back to my standard blue colour. I had gotten so used to seeing myself with purple-hued eyes that it must have escaped my notice this morning that they had indeed changed.

    Theo's POVTabby's laughing as she runs around with those kids Khai's friends arrive with, and I'm watching them.They are out in the yard, the four children running around to let off steam as Tabby and Arlo play tag with them as if they, too, were young children enjoying the right of passage of running freely."It's weird, watching children find happiness in the most mundane thing, isn't it?" My father asks me with one of those confident smiles that makes me want to make a witty remark back.I don't take my eyes off the children, but I do answer him after a long moment of thought and exercising control over my childish ways."Yes, father. It is hypnotising. What is it?""How do you know there is something? I might only want a small conversation about the orphan children we have within our pack now.""They aren't orphaned; we don't know that yet..." "Damian has habits, son. Those he steals from, he does so after murdering them. It's an unfortunate truth but a truth nevertheless."That

    Lilith's POVI'm snapped right of the bedroom we were just in and into a garden as green as the eye can see.My feet hit the ground, and I fall off balance to the side as I try to catch my balance before I faceplate the floor. The man stands before me, his purple eyes glistening like the night sea as he watches me make a fool of myself."You're Theseus, aren't you?" I ask because he's strikingly similar to the man standing away from us when I met with Celeste, who didn't greet me even though he sought to look at me.My... father."Yes. I am Theseus." He rasps lowly at me as he looks around with wide, worried eyes.Is he waiting for someone?"Where are we? How did you materialise us here? What do you want from me..?""That's a lot of questions, kid. I've brought you here to teach you what you need differently. I cannot watch you suffer anymore.""You've been watching me? How?""The fountain of sight, child. Come, this way now. We mustn't have you seen up here," he summons me. We walk

    Lilith's POVCeleste and Theseus show me upstairs to a grand bedroom that is dressed down in pink and gold. It looks as if once, it may have been a nursery.There are safety catches on everything, and there are stoppers in all of the plugs, but where there should be a crib, there's a large double bed. I walk around the room, looking at the handmade bedding—the printed photos on the wall and the baby pink draping curtains. Outside two doors that I had previously presumed were windows is a balcony that is lined with black iron fences to prevent anyone from falling off to their death.It's pretty out here with the wildlife and the trees swaying not far away. It's serene.Just standing here looking out over a more beautiful land than anything I have ever seen makes me sad.This could have been my life. I could have lived here as a child with the two people who were supposed to be my parents.I could have grown in this room and watched life pass by each year out here on the balcony.I

    Celestes POVI leave our home and delve. Outside into the wilderness to breathe. I never thought I would see Lilith again, not after the last time I meddled with fate by bringing her up here. Zeus had reprimanded me and took my ability to see my creations for a whole month. But now she is here and staying under our roof, and I'm sure that some of the other gods have already noted the terrible argument Theseus and I had just had. Things are reported quickly up here because there is an order in which we are destined to behave, and arguing amongst ourselves is not something that is permitted. Usually, two gods of beings living in the same realm wouldn't be living with one another, but unfortunately or fortunately, whichever way you look at it, Theseus and I were fated to be with one another. Our fate wasn't as strong as the fate of our creations, but with evolution comes genetic markers that act stronger, or so I believe with Hati.Hati was just a wolf and, unbeknownst to us, had h

    Theo's POVLeo is having his warriors ready to infiltrate Damian's land from the north whilst I lead my own to cross the south side.Three days, that's how long I agree to wait.It shouldn't be that long. I should have gone there that day. Bowled in there and got my girl back, but Leo and Khai had made a valid argument.We don't want to lose anyone. Leo has stated he has no ambition to go to those parents in his pack to reveal that whilst he had his warriors helping out a friend, their son lost their life to Damian, of all people, and I get it. I think about Arlo or Sebation, two aspiring warriors in my pack and I'd hate to have to tell Lucas or Sebation's parents that I had led them into a war that caused their death. It is almost unthinkable to relay those words, and I haven't yet had to do it since I've taken over as Alpha of this pack, so I guess I am blissfully unaware of how exactly it feels to lose a young member of my pack and do the alpha duty of revealing such a thing to

I hadn't expected her to wake from her nap in pain, I also hadn't expected her to tell me we won't be finding Lora but she did that to and despite knowing she probably has the gifts to see such things, I deny her allegations and pretend that we will find her. To say she took me off guard would be an understatement but all I could do was call for Theo Lilith has gone into labour a whole week before she's due but I think that's normal for multiple pregnancy but no less scary as she freaks at the pain and wails into my shoulder.She labours in bed, standing up and even in the shower.The whole time crying for Lora, feeling as if she might be replacing her with the children coming out from within her tummy.Sadness fills the room and the three of us did not enjoy the birth process at all.Our sons entered the world screaming loudly, clearing their lungs within minutes of each other and though Theo and I wanted to c

    Lilith's POVDane is adamant that Damian isn't dead and equally as adamant that I can use my memory to summon where his whereabouts.Apparently the witch side of me can teleport, and that's a given because I have done before but never have I teleported to a person specifically, only a place.But the more I think about it, the more it makes sense.Of course it does, if I can summon a place, then I can summon a person, right?I just have to practice, apparently. It still astounds me how much he knows about me when most know nothing about me at all.And it just so happens that I feel closest to him out of anyone I've met.I'm having a bad day today, pain is radiating along my back, a sharp stabbing pain accompanying it whenever I stand for to long.I think it's the twins, my boys that are currently safe within me.I miss Lora.I miss Calley.Heck, I even miss Lucas.I can only hope that one of them with with my baby girl, that they are doing everything in their power to protect her from
