Caleb-

“I am sorry. Will you repeat that?” I asked Zeus when I didn’t think I heard him correctly. “Are you telling me that the ruler of the underworld has taken Kyra and refused to release her?”

“If I knew he would do something like this, I wouldn’t have let him. When he arrived, I thought his intended target was Hunter. When I realized it wasn’t, I was too late to stop him from taking her.” Zeus answered.

“Don’t worry, we will get her back.” Selene spoke, but her voice seemed shakier than her usual calm tone.

“Well, I am not waiting for her to come back. I am going to get her!” I turned to leave, but Zeus grabbed my elbow before I could make it any further.

“I got your back.” Alec said, and Zac echoed as they stood up from the couch.

Grabbing Zeus’ wrist, I twisted his arm until he released me. “Don’t try to stop me.”

“I need you to think this through.” Zeus argued but didn’t grab at me again. “If Hades left Tartarus to come take Kyra because of the Scepter, what do you think he wil

    Hunter-Zeus and I explained our situation and why we needed the Scepter, but Hades hadn’t spoken a word since he arrived. Before Hades arrived, Zeus warned me not to say or do anything I might regret, regardless of how much Hades provoked me. Since we needed the Scepter and I wanted Kyra back, I had to stay calm and hopefully find a way to reason with Hades.In the worst-case scenario, I will take her back by force, but I don’t mind playing by the rules in the meantime. Staring at Hades as he remained silent and studied me curiously, I had a feeling that dealing with Hades wouldn’t be simple. Zeus and I spoke before Hades arrived, and he told me that he didn’t think Hades wanted Kyra.I also had a feeling that Hades might be after something else. I learned that Zeus and Selene had never had the chance to contact Archilles to guide me. Since Achilles had helped me, I wondered if Hades had been aware of my arrival from the start and intended to use my objective to his advantage.“I adm

    Hunter-“What are you doing?” I demanded shortly after I took Caleb to meet Hades.“Doing what I need to.” Caleb’s tone was flat, and his eyes looked as if he was utterly defeated.“I told you what was going on, but I thought we were going to discuss things. I didn’t expect you to agree as soon as we arrived.” I grabbed his shoulder and tried to pull him away from Hades.Hades was holding a scroll that had been unraveled and had to be at least ten meters long. I knew Caleb would willingly sign the contract and give up his soul, but this wasn’t what I had in mind. As soon as we arrived, Caleb demanded that Hades produce the contract and they make the deal.Hades didn’t waste any time. A scroll suddenly appeared in his hand, and when he opened it, it dropped to the ground and scattered. The text on the scroll was in a language I couldn’t read, but I would need a magnifying glass even if I could.Without asking what the contract would entail, Caleb had stepped forward and reached for the

    Hunter-Caleb and I returned home a few minutes later, but Zeus didn’t follow. As soon as we arrived, we explained that Kyra would return before midnight. We didn’t tell them about the deal Caleb made, but thankfully, they didn’t ask too many questions.Instead of sitting around and waiting, we all started working on trying to discover how the Scepter worked. I didn’t pull it out again since Hades warned me it was dangerous around the others. I did take out the book, which I had tucked inside my coat, but we didn’t find anything useful inside. It seemed that I would need to figure out the Scepter on my own.Before we knew it, midnight was upon us. “Where is she?” I asked when I checked the time.“We still have a few minutes before midnight. Maybe he is waiting until the last minute before returning her.” Xureus said as he propped his feet on the coffee table.Instead of gathering in the library, we stayed in the living room to discuss the only book we had regarding the Scepter.

    Kyra-The first three days after Hunter left went by rather quickly as I was able to keep myself busy. Since there wasn’t much I could do other than wait, I spent much of my time helping Caleb with issues that had come up in other Packs. When I wasn’t assisting Caleb, I was in my art studio.Although I was worried about Hunter, my father, and my brothers, I had plenty to keep busy. Mostly, I was concerned about Caleb. He wasn’t gone like the others but had acted weird since Hades allowed me to return.In my state of absentmindedness, as I tried to analyze what happened to Caleb, I reached out to dip my paintbrush in more paint. Instead of dipping the brush, I accidentally knocked over the tray and barely managed to catch it before a paint disaster ruined the floor. The paintbrush fell, but I managed not to spill all the paint.Shaking my head, I picked up the brush and arranged the tray so it didn’t tip over again. My attention adjusted to the canvas I had painted on. To my surprise,

    Kyra-“Then you know why I am here.” I slowly turned to face Hades.“I do, but I won't give you what you want.” Hades’s jaw twitched, but his features weren’t expressive of emotion.“Why can you all leave us alone? We haven’t done anything to anyone. All we want is to live a peaceful life or at least as close as we can get.” My voice rose slightly, but I remained calm.I was starting to regret learning who I was. If I could go back and start over, even if I had to give up the family I currently had, I don’t think I would want anything to do with Gods. If anything, I wish I could go back in time and stop my father from making a deal with Artemis.It seems like it has been one disaster after another since then, and I wasn’t going against other werewolves or even Lycans. I was going against the Greek Gods. I might be part God, but this was going above and beyond my abilities.“I am doing this for your own good, as well as Caleb’s. If you knew the truth, you would understand.”“I don’t kn

    Kyra-“First, let me explain that Caleb’s name is originally Zatyx. He was one of Cronus’s children and had the closest relationship with Hades. When…” Persephone began, but I held up my hand and cut her off.“If he was Cronus’s child, why haven’t I heard of him?”“You’ll know when I get to that part.” Persephone pulled my hand back into hers. “When Cronus was overthrown, Zatyx decided he wanted nothing to do with the issues in the family. He decided to live an ordinary life and become a farmer and trained warriors.”My eyes drifted as I tried to imagine the life Persephone talked about.“He lived many years living a peaceful life. Many people admired him, and instead of keeping the crops for himself, he offered them to others who were struggling. One day, while delivering goods to help a family, he came across a female who was running away from home. Her family was trying to sell her to someone twice her age so their son could buy a house for his new family. That woman was you.”My e

    Kyra-I watched as Hades and Persephone’s eyes slowly widened. “It might work.” They muttered as their gaze turned to me.“If Hunter can deal with her, the contract will be settled once the curse is broken. However, if the curse isn’t broken, I keep the contract.” Hades spoke.“I don’t agree. If the curse isn’t broken, I still want you to end the contract.” Persephone told Hades.“That won’t happen.” Hades shook his head. “If Caleb dies, he will come to Tartarus until the curse is lifted.” His eyes focused on me. “The only way I will agree to release him is if the curse is broken. I won’t watch my brother go through the same pain any longer. Considering your life cycle this time, you can figure out how to break the curse and keep yourself alive in the meantime. Only your death will restart the cycle.”I thought about it for a while and wondered what the chances were that killing the Goddess who created the curse would break it. I understood where Hades was coming from, but the idea of

    Kyra-Instead of returning home to tell everyone about what I learned, I stayed with my mother and the children for a few more days. Until Hunter returned, there wasn’t much that could be done. I also thought I could get more answers from my mother than from the library.After two days, though, I didn’t get any helpful information. On a side note, I was able to relax and bond with my children. I learned that Ryleigh and Cosmo were very much in love and had significantly progressed in their relationship. After everything was over, they wanted to get married, which had been the highlight of my visit.I was also able to let go of the self-doubt crawling through my mind. After everything I had encountered, I realized I needed to trust myself and those around me more. If we can overcome everything we have, dealing with the rest shouldn’t be impossible. There was no need to keep myself locked in the library all the time to find answers.I’ve come to understand that I wasn’t doing anyone any

    Kyra-With Xureus’s eyes now on me, my mind was flooded with various things I wanted to tell my brother. It was only then that I also realized I was crying. The tears that haven’t fallen, burned my eyes and blurred my vision.I wanted to hug him, but I wasn’t sure if he would allow me to. Our relationship has improved, but I didn’t know to what extent. With my hands clasped together, I wrung them anxiously as I chewed on my inner cheek.“I know I was a dick to you in the past, but I am grateful to have you as my sister. Even if you don’t remember your past lives, our history is unforgettable to me. I never imagined that in any of your lives, you would become my sister, but now that you are and the curse with Caleb is broken, I couldn’t be happier.”“I…” I began but I couldn’t conjure any other words.“Now, I want to give you a gift.” Xureus stepped forward and placed his hand over my head.I wasn’t sure what he was up to, but I quickly figured it out as a series of scenes rushed into

    Kyra-Waking up with a gasp, my eyes snapped open. “Am I dead?” I muttered.“No, my child.” My mother’s sweet voice fell over me like silk just as I turned my head.“Mom!” I sobbed as I quickly moved to wrap my arms around her.Overwhelmed with emotions, from the dream and being alive, I openly cried in the arms of my mother. Her hand gently rubbed my back and rocked me until I calmed down. Once my tears dried, I pulled away from her and looked around the room.Everyone who had been sent to the dream realm was no longer scattered around the room. They were sitting on the couch and loveseat. I was placed between Hunter and Caleb, who were still asleep. Zac was sitting cross-legged on the ground, next to Talon, who was unconscious and tied to a chair.“What is Zac doing?” I asked.“He is trying to access the dream realm, but so far he hasn’t had any luck.” My mother answered.“How long have we been asleep?” I looked around at the others and it was difficult to tell how long it had been.

    Kyra-Careful not to make any noises or sudden movements, I covered my mouth with my hand. I didn’t know what they would do if they caught me, but I couldn’t let them no matter what. Hunter and Caleb weren’t the same as I remember.“What is that?” I heard Caleb ask Hunter as they moved closer to my hiding spot.I couldn’t see them currently, but I could hear them talking as if they were standing beside me. Holding my breath, I silently prayed they would keep moving and get as far away from me as possible. That prayer was quickly diminished when Caleb and Hunter came into view, standing next to a tree a mere few feet from where I hid. If they looked in my direction, they would no doubt spot me.“I think it is the knife that Kyra had in her bag.” Hunter turned the knife I lost in his hands, examining it.“Why is it here? Didn’t you take it from her?” Caleb frowned as she also looked at the knife.“I was trying to gain her trust. I planned to take it from her, but when I caught her, she

    Kyra-“Kyra?” Tristan’s voice came from the other side of the door to my cell.I had fallen asleep in the corner, but I quickly became alert. Pushing up from the corner I had curled up in, I jumped to my feet and rushed toward the door. Tristan was standing on the other side, peeking through the small window in the door, blocked by thick glass.“I am here.” I whispered.A second later, I heard the sound of rattling keys as he stuck a key into the door. I held my breath as I waited for the sound of the lock releasing. When it did, and Tristan opened the door, I flung myself into his arms.“I’m sorry I am late.” Tristan returned my hug briefly before stepping back to let me out of the cell.After I was out, he pulled a small spray bottle from his pocket and sprayed me with it. “This will mask your scent so no one knows what direction you went. I also sprayed myself.” Tristan handed me the bottle, which I slipped into the front pocket of my jeans. “Let’s get you out of here.”Nodding my

    Kyra-Over the following three days, I didn’t leave my hospital room. Tristan took care of everything I needed and took care of me around the clock. On the few occasions he went to investigate our situation, he didn’t have anything to report.My wound wasn’t fully healed, but it was healed enough that I didn’t have any reason to stay in the hospital. At the moment, Tristan was gone, handling my discharge paperwork. I was looking forward to leaving the hospital, mostly so I didn’t have to listen to the nurses gossiping outside my door.I was fairly sure that they were doing it intentionally because their topics always revolved around me and how it wouldn’t be long until I was kicked out on my ass again. Tristan tried to defend me a few times, but Hunter punished him each time he did. Hunter’s reasoning was that rogues shouldn’t be protected.The more time I spent around the gossip or hearing about Hunter, the more heartbroken I became. As I was waiting for Tristan to return, I sat on m

    Kyra-“Ready?” Hunter asked as I stepped out of the room.“I guess.” I diverted my gaze from his.Pretending I didn’t know him would be more challenging than I thought. When I first stepped out of the room and saw him waiting for me, I had almost forgotten where I was for a moment. The way his eyes wandered over my body as if he was tempted to take me into the room and have his way with my body.“Have you eaten anything since you woke up?”“Not yet.” I shook my head.“Let’s go to a restaurant.” His tone was more like an order than a request.Keeping my attention on the floor, I walked alongside him. Thankfully, he didn’t say anything all the way to the restaurant. When we arrived, I felt everyone’s attention was on me.The restaurant was packed with people, and I knew them all. Some were from before Hunter returned from the dead. Others were new members from after we moved into my father's house, and Caleb took over as Alpha King.“Are they here?” Hunter asked the waitress who was gui

    Kyra-Peeking through my lashes, I noticed they both left. Exhaling a slow and long breath, I opened my eyes and sat up. Staring at the door, I wondered how I was going to pull this off. This situation was different from what happened in the past, but there are a lot of similarities.If someone was pulling the strings here, I needed to be careful and not slip up. For now, I will remain in the hospital so I can heal. Without my abilities, I might not heal quickly. After I did heal, I would pretend to be weary and try my best to keep up with the pretense that I was once again the scared seventeen-year-old who didn’t trust anyone.Chewing on my lower lip, I tried to make a plan. I devised a few different plans, but each one didn’t seem feasible. It slowly dawned on me that I wouldn’t be able to plan anything. Until I knew who my enemy was, I would need to be flexible and play it by ear.“Kyra?” A familiar voice spoke inside my head, which filled me with excitement.“Tristan!” I answered.

    Kyra-My head felt like I was run over by a truck. With a groan, I covered my head with my hands and applied pressure to attempt to relieve the pain. Opening my eyes, I sat up and blinked a few times to clear my vision.“Where am I?” I asked as I looked around at a room I recognized but couldn’t remember where I saw it.Glancing around the room, I noticed it was a hospital room. My mind was a little foggy as I tried to remember what happened to me. Bits and pieces of memories flooded my head, but not enough to clarify anything.As I continued to look around the room, I was suddenly hit with a feeling of DeJa’Vu. I didn’t know why because my memories were a jumbled mess. Frowning, I pushed off the covers and winced from pain. Lifting the shirt I was wearing, I noticed a long wound on my side. It stretched from my rib cage down to my hip.I couldn’t remember how I got it. Spotting a mirror on the wall, I walked over to it to examine the wound closer. The wound was sewn together, with the

    Kyra-“Did you enjoy your weekend?” Hunter asked the moment I entered the door.“I did.” I smiled when Hunter grabbed my suitcase and handed it to a maid.“Take that up to her room.” Hunter instructed the maid.After the maid left, Hunter pulled me into the house, toward the living room. When he sat me on the couch and knelt before me, pulling off my shoes, I felt a little embarrassed. This wasn’t the first time he had pampered me like this, but Tristan, Rex, and Caleb were in the room.“Samantha went home. Why aren’t you home?” I asked Rex as Caleb moved to sit beside me on the couch.“We were discussing a new training course we want to try. Not only will we implement it here, but I will travel to other packs to train them as well.” Rex answered.While Hunter continued pulling off my shoes, Caleb tucked me under his arm, forcing me to lean against him. “We weren’t sure when you two would return.” Caleb spoke.“I sent Samantha a text a bit ago, so she knows where I am at.” Rex leaned
