TRISTAN “I have told you this several times. Don't beat about the bush whenever I ask you a question.”“You answer me straight or get lost!” I voiced out with all seriousness.“I was at the garden getting rid of some weeds with Loveth, my maid,” She answered.I scoffed.I unveiled the towel which I used to cover the pool of blood and she screamed all of a sudden.“Where did this come from, Tristan?” I looked at her with a side eye and hissed. “If you were here when you were supposed to be, do you think you won't hear my voice or screams at all?” She shook her head in agreement.“I'm sorry, my love. I didn't realize you needed me,” She added.That statement angered me. I became infuriated.Only if I could find a permanent solution to this dilemma of mine!I wouldn't have any need for pity.Athena.Her name once again rang in my ear.Damian would pay for this. He won't get away with what he did.I scoffed once more. I am very sure he is close to dead right now only if his pack doctor
ATHENA'S POV“Get out and never come back!”The voice of my father resonated in my ears as he spat on me whilst talking.Mother was there also. She wouldn’t even look at me.I turned to her. “Mother, I’m sorry. I don’t know what came over me!” I pleaded.“Athena, You do not belong here. There is an evil inside you and it spreading so fast. You shouldn’t be amongst us. Leave!” she said in a loud tone.“Why would they do this to me?” It wasn’t my fault.I never intended to kill Jonas. I got angry and things went haywire. He was standing right in front of me saying all sort of things about my late baby sister. I was angry. I couldn’t take it anymore. My inner wolf came out. I tried to calm it down but it wouldn’t listen. The shift was swift and before I knew it, I slit his throat with my sharp claws.He bled all over my clothes and another member of the pack walked in and saw what had happened.They wouldn’t just hear me out. “I do not want to see you here, anymore. You are not mine!
LYRA'S POVI stare in pity at the poor girl. She is severely injured and bruised in different body parts.Who would do something like this?“Hurry up. We have to take her to the pack clinic right away,” I told Josh, a warrior wolf.I watch as he lifts her gently, and we begin hurrying steadily but fast.As we clear the woods, I break off from them.“You guys go on ahead. I will meet you later,” I tell them.I head to the mansion and my brother's office. I enter without knocking.“Lyra, I have told you several times to always knock before entering,” he says without lifting his head from the papers he was looking at.“I don't want to,” I retort.“One of these days, I won't take it lightly with you when you do so,” he replied.“I doubt it,” I answered as I flopped down on one of the chairs facing him and placed my feet on his desk.He sighs at my antics before looking up. Tristan Celeste, my very own stubborn brother. Alpha of the Celeste pack.“Shouldn't you be busy right now? What do y
ATHENA'S POV“Lock her in!” The Alpha’s voice came aloud to the men who held me bound. I weep as I am cast into the dungeon. It was a dark place and it was empty. Thank goddess for the holes in the wall through which light from outside reflected through. It would have been complete darkness in here. I crawled around as I could still feel the sharp pain in my back. It aches. My wolf was quiet. A terrible being. Only helps in the most awkward situation. I hadn’t recovered fully. I couldn’t blame Lyra or the other lady, they couldn’t have done anything. He was the Alpha and his words were final. I sat on the ground and wept bitterly. I thought my suffering had come to an end. I just got myself into another. I was lone for days and felt like ending my life with my bare hands. But I couldn’t. The air was polluted and I felt nauseated. “How do I survive this hell?” I pondered. Just while I sat there in isolation, I went deep into thought. The thoughts of my baby sister
TRISTAN’S POV “You disgust me, Athena!” Her eyes became teary at the sound of my voice. I can’t deny the fact that I desired her but for that moment, I didn’t want her anymore. She hailed from a pack I had so much hatred for. She can’t even be trusted. For all I know, she might be a spy sne t to infiltrate my pack or worse.My pack found her wandering in the woods from nowhere, bruised and left to die. Perhaps she was a cast away or a forbidden one. I can’t allow my pack see me as a weak Alpha to take her in just like that. Never, I won't allow that! This is how I can prove myself to them the more. Even my Luna, Lyra, confirms it. Athena can’t be trusted. “Yes, I brought her out of the dungeon but that was only because of how I felt,” She must have charmed me. Perhaps, a hidden trait she possess. I won’t allow her have her way with me. Every wolf was present that day with me. We were all gathered at the Dome as they all longed to hear my public announcement. I was to
DAMIAN'S POV“Who is she?” “Why is she appearing my dreams?”“Why?”“You need to stop!”I said to my wolf. I don’t know who this person is. “Why do you keep bringing flashes of her to my head?”Stop It.I struggled with my wolf as I rolled on the floor.The hairs on my skin grew longer and thicker.My emotions were heightened.I felt active all of a sudden and I felt this pull to the strange girl appearing in my dreams.She looked familiar but I didn’t even want to know who she was.I had a lot in my head. It was the mating ceremony of the Crystal Moon pack.I couldn’t pick a mate and these visions and dreams have been disturbing me even before then.As the Alpha, it would only tag me as weak. I cant afford to look like that in front of my pack.But what can I do? These visions keep messing with my sanity every single time.I was always in dispute with my wolf. An unusual incident.“Who would reason with me?” “That a whole Alpha is having troubles with his wolf all because of a dre
ATHENA I found myself trapped. Trapped in that space, that awkward moment qhe it dawned on you that you have just made a grave mistake. My eyes widened in fright and shock after I beheld the blood of the maiden on the floor and on my skin. “Are you okay???” I tried to console her. “Please let me…..” I stuttered, trying to offer to help nurse her wounds as she bled profusely. She didn't respond. Instead she crawled her way from the room mumbling at me what I figure to be curse words. She had every right to so I wouldn't stop her. “What the heck have we done?” I shouted at my wolf who had gone back to hiding after causing so much damage. How am I supposed to fix this? Before I moved an inch from where I stood, the door creaked open revealing the very image of someone I never expected to see. Not even in a hundred years as I have made up my mind never to set my foot there. It was Damian, the Alpha of my origin pack. The shock in my eyes when I saw him, I wonder what he was
ATHENAI sat in the garden just right outside my quarters as I pondered on Damian's visit and words.“I…..this same me, becoming Alpha Damian's mate?”“Am I dreaming or Is this the universe cracking another joke on my life?”Cause its fond of that. First, ny parents suddenly become my enemies, my whole pack turned their backs against me and now I am in a new pack where I am not loved and I stand the chance of being killed.His proposal wasn't all I had to think of but how my wolf suddenly links up with his, with so much ease surprises me.Before he left, he whispered through the mind link, “I will be nearby when you are done thinking about it. I am not leaving here without you.”This makes me imagine how he was able to find me.“So you are here?” I heard a voice from behind all of a sudden. The voice gave me a wide jump out of my deep thoughts and I mumbled in response, “Hmm?”“You can't be here, Athena. The Luna sent the Scenters to fetch you,” Vega, another Omega in the pack said.

DEREK“Someone saw us, Derek!!!” The voice of Lyra rented the air as I hurriedly put on my clothes.The sudden movement of the intruder made me jump up to my feet.“He mustn't get away!” Lyra echoed in my ears as I dashed out of the room.I followed after the figure.I had to catch up with him. If not, I would be damned.Tristan must never hear of this. My death won't be a good one if that happens.What am I supposed to say? How am I supposed to explain to everyone that I had always been sleeping with the Luna of the pack all these while in the disguise of being her closest friend?However, nobody knows that. We had been on it secretly for months and doing it without suspicion.He was pretty fast but I knew he was going to tire out soon.I kept running after him and on a hopeful trial, I bounced on him.“Urghh,” he screamed our as my claws scratched his skin.He fell to the ground that instant and I meediately climbed on top of him.“Perry?” “What the heck are you doing here?” I sho
LYRA “She escaped?"“Arghhhh. If only you would have allowed me kill that girl.”“But no, you just insist that we keep her all because of some nonsense about healing powers,” I said to Tristan who obviously wasn't paying attention to my rants.I was angry and pained.“What do I know she will do now?”“That girl could bring her people to come and attack us!”“We have tonattack before it's too late,” I added.Tristan didn't even respond to me. He walked out of the room with the blood drink in his hands.Don't they know we have to act fast? How long is he going to keep wasting time?There is no way that girl has any healing powers.I have to see that person before I run mad on this case.If Tristan won't do something about this Athena, I will!“Hello, where are you?” I said over the phone.“Know what, you don't even need to answer that. Let's meet at our usual spot. I have something important I need you to handle, baby,” I said and hung up the call immediately.Just as I was about to
DAMIANThe last thing I remember was saving Athena from Tristan and his assistant.But all that seem odd now that I even struggle to open my eyes.The whole place was dark and I couldn't see a thing. I tried moving my hands hoping I would touch Athena but there was nothing. Just me alone.It was as though my eyes were glued to each other and as for my mouth, words became heavy for me to utter.A lot of questions rolled through my head that instant.What if Athena was already taken?What If I was actually dead and this is just a midpoint between life and death?What if the pack was I trouble and that animal has come to take them under captive lest they give in to his authority?What if?I tried to call Athena but nothing came forth.I was on the verge of giving up when I suddenly heard this calm soft voice, “Damian.”“Damian,” the voice called out again.And surprisingly, this energy came on me and I could feel my strength once again.I could now open ny eyes and right there, I saw Ath
TRISTAN'S POVI wore my clothes that instant.Are my ears hearing wrong?How did she escape?The dungeon. No one escapes the dungeon.Could it be that idiot who calls himself an Alpha?I stepped out of the room in haste and Derek stood there, his face all frowned and roaring the need for violence.“Derek, what is this I am hearing?” “I just got the news, my Lord,” he said.“My Lord, Athena is no longer in the dungeon. She escaped but she wasn't alone,” Derek spoke.“Where the heck is Jarvis?”“Isn't he suppose to be on guard at the dungeon? How did all of this happen? I raised my voice.“Just regaining consciousness. They knocked him out,” he answered.“I suspect they made him forget everything cause he doesn't even know where he is,” Derek explained.We got to the dungeon and I met Jarvis sitting sitting on the floor looking comfiused.“I see. Damian!! that dude! He was here.”“Let's go, Derek, they couldnt have gone far,” I told Derek as we head into the woods together.I sniffed
LYRA I kept tapping my feet on the ground as I watched him walk of the Alpha's chambers. I turned to Tristan. “So he is her mater or what?” “I don't care. She is not leaving my vicinity. She belongs to me until I see no use for her!” He answered angrily. “But don't you think he would come back with his people to fight us?” “And I will be ready for him,” he replied in a haste. All my plans to get rid of this Athena keeps getting ruined. I just pray She dies in the dungeon she is locked that is if she is not dead already. “My love. Come let me relieve you of this stress and rage. Don't mind that fool. He thinks he can just come to our territory and do as he likes,” I said to him as I kept caressing his chest. He looked at me and smacked his lips. “You really know what I need right now. Take me away, my sexy wife,” he smacked his lips. Tristan was a beast not only in action but also on bed. This is one reason I would never allow any Omega take him from me. He handl
DAMIAN “Do your worst!” Those were the exact words of Tristan as I stood in front of him. His eyes were blazing fire and I could feel his wolf rising in anger. Like it would swallow me up if I made any funny move. He was much ready for a challenge but I wasn't. His words hit a nerve in my body but I tried to calm myself down as much as I could. “We shouldn't allow him speak to us in that manner,” my wolf uttered. “Easy now. We “It would be a dent on us if we let that slide,” my wolf said. “Hmmm..I know but we have to let it slide. Remember, Athena needs us.” “I have been trying to get a link but nothing. Wherever she was, it's pretty hard to get there. We have to find her, Damian,” My wolf uttered. “Aren't you going to say anything, weakling?” Tristan added, poking me on the chest. “Since you have declined my request, I best be on my way. I will be back,” I said. “You are giving up so easily? C'mon. I heard you pull quite a show with my guards. They deserve
Years ago in Crystal Moon pack,JOHA'S POV“What's the report, Keith?”He was silent for a while. I knew something was wrong somewhere. “Keith, talk to me. What's the update?”“We can't go on, Enforceer Joha. They are just too many. They outnumbered us and the first slaughters is their victory.”“Crystal Moon warriors needs to retreat else we would be wiped off by these people,” Keith concluded.“What does the Alpha have to say about this?”“The Alpha is nowhere to be found, sire.”What??Alpha Brandon is missing?No it can't be.“Are you sure he is not at the battlefront?” I asked.“He is not, Enforcer Joha. That I am sure of,” he replied.“You need to give the order, sire,” He said.“Retreat. Tell everyone to pull back with immediate effect; orders of the Alpha,” I said sharply.He left my presence that instant.Meanwhile, I needed to find the Alpha else the pack would be thrown into immense fear and confusion when they arrive.The battle was a battle of space. The Celeste pack we
DAMIANI stood still.Looked around to see how many of them are really there.“We can take them all, Damian,” My wolf whispered.“I am fucking hungry for some Celeste's blood,” my wolf uttered.“Hey!!!!” A voice from a tall tower right at the edge of the gate came at me.“Are you deaf or did you miss your way here? Identify yourself before you get a piece of this artillery!” He said, another heavy machine pointing toward me.What comes out of these machines? Bullets?That would be nice. Only if they would be fast enough to hit me with them.“I want to see your Alpha,” I said.They all burst into laughter. “Who does this one think he is to request for the presence of Alpha Tristan?”“Do you even know where you are, Mister?” One of them said.“Yes, the Celeste Moon pack and Alpha Tristan Celeste is your leader.”“Tell him, I, Damian of the Crystal Moon pack, wants to see him.”“I want an official meeting right now,” I added, with so much authority emanating from my voice.“Okay, you hav
