~AthenaAt his words, I narrowed my eyes, thinking of the best possible way to reply to him."Just apologize to him for leaving, Athena," Elsa urged.My brown eyes met his blue ones, the cold and merciless look in his eyes igniting some kind of feeling in me: anger.Why was he so riled up just because I left the mansion? I folded my arms defiantly across my chest and arched a brow stubbornly. "I was tired of staying in the mansion, and I needed some fresh air.""You left the mansion even after I told you how dangerous it was for you to stay away from my sight?" he barked, his tone frostier than snow.I rolled my eyes, already becoming tired of the tantrum he was throwing. "I can take care of myself, Richard.""Oh, for goodness sake, Athena! The last time you left this mansion, how well were you able to take care of yourself? Huh?" His eyes were wide and fierce as he glared at me."You can't talk now?That's right…", he threw his hands in the air and cocked his head to the side before s

~AthenaAs soon as he got to the bed, he leaned forward to me and checked to make sure I was asleep. I maintained my posture, holding my breath, trying so hard not to give anything away.I felt a bit disappointed when he rose from the bed and went to the bathroom. I listened to the sound emanating from there, the sound of the running water, imagining him beneath it as it caressed his lovely skin. I imagined my hand roaming round his body, tracing the chiseled planes of it, his muscular biceps and triceps, the hard wall of his chest, doing things to him I had wanted to do for a long time."Stop being naughty, Athena!" my inner voice of reasoning cautioned.I tossed and turned in bed and let out a sigh of frustration. After awhile, the tap stopped running and I could hear Richard step out of the bathroom.A few minutes later he was in bed with me. My heart was beating so fast I was afraid it might burst. I flinched as he slid his strong arm around my waist, pulling me closer to him. I c

~AthenaThe day for Sabrina's burial ceremony finally arrived. The mansion bustled with activity. She would be buried at the cemetery, the same cemetery where I heard Micheal was buried a few days after he died. My heart still felt a bit sore whenever I thought of him, what happened to him had indirectly been my fault too. If only I could go back to that night, if only… Richard and James had left early in the morning to get things in order ahead of their late best friend's burial.I was in my bathroom, having a long shower. For some reason, I couldn't shake off the weird dreadful feeling curled up at the pit of my stomach, nor could I ignore the hairs on the back of my neck standing on end, all signs that something bad was going to happen. What could it be? I pondered.When I was done bathing, I pulled a towel from the rack, wrapped it around my chest, and got out of the shower.Once inside the room, I could see Tracy looming over the bed with her hands on her hips, staring at two bl

~AthenaTracy raised her brows like a woman about to give the juiciest gossip, "It is said that about a quarter of the pack will be in attendance," she continued."They all are coming for different reasons, while some are coming to gloat at the demise of the woman who indirectly caused the king's brother's death, others are coming to see you."I furrowed my brows in confusion, "others are coming to see me?""Yes, my queen," she nodded. "You have only left the mansion once ever since you returned which was when you visited only the resettlement area. The news spread like wildfire. You know the king banned any visits to the palace by people of all classes after Ms. Sabrina's death, so this will be the first official time the people of the higher class and middle class will get to see you after what happened to you."I sighed, "Is that all?"She looked a bit surprised at my question and speculated in an unsure tone, "Were you expecting to hear something in particular?"I smiled, and lied

~RichardI narrowed my eyes in confusion at the man who had just spoken. They killed everyone?. I needed clarification on who had been killed and who had carried out the killings.But before I could ask him the questions plaguing my mind, James's voice rang out as he questioned him, "Speak in clear terms! Who were killed? Who is coming?"The man, still visibly shaken, looked at James and then at me. "All the men at the borders are dead, t..they are all dead," he stuttered.I could feel the fear that erupted in the crowd at his words. The atmosphere became very tense with anxiety as people's eyes darted around them, as though those the man was referring to were ready to launch an attack on everyone.The man's widened eyes gazed at me in fear as he explained further, "About 15 men came and they shot at us with silver bullets through the heart. We stood no chance; we had no fighting chance."My blood stilled at his words. James and I exchanged glances. If what this man just said is true

~RichardWe returned to the mansion from the Cemetery, but that was after I gave a short speech to the people on their need to be alert in this challenging time. I also let them know that they would hear from me on the next line of action we would take regarding the news that had reached us.At the mansion, everyone was still in a state of shock due to the news. It seemed though to have affected Athena more than everyone else.I immediately called all four of them to my office upon our return. My reason for doing that, was to try to advise the ladies, especially Athena and her mom, on the need to be strong now, more than ever, and not to fret so much about the situation we were currently in because if we give in to fear even before the war starts, we would have already lost the battle.I watched Athena and her mom, who were sitting beside each other on the arm couch in my office, staring into space as though they were dazed.James and Jessica, on the other hand, had pulled out the two

~AthenaI gulped at his question, feeling a bit blank regarding what answer to give. I had only spoken because I feared the idea of having to go to war, saying we could do things differently, even though I had no clue how we could go about it."We are waiting, Athena. Tell us what you propose we do?" Richard's voice reached me, reminding me of the herculean task I had been handed. I was about to shake my head from left to right when Jessica spoke, coming to my rescue and drawing everyone's attention."Your Majesty, we can extend a hand of peace. Let's reach out to this Alpha Frederick and try to settle things amicably," she explained.Why hadn't I thought of that? I guess I was still a bit shocked and confused with all that was happening. Sabastain had killed my unborn child, my stepfather, and even Ms. Seline, a woman who had taken care of me like her child and even stood up to him severally because of me. I guess he was tired of having to put up with her challenging attitude. It st

~RichardTwo days have passed already since James sent a message to Alpha Frederick through a contact he was able to establish, but we are yet to get any feedback from him, and that has become very concerning.There have not been any new attacks from him or his people, so we are clearly in the dark as to what their next move would be. James and I visited the team in charge of producing machinery and kept them abreast of the new development and also informed them of the need to manufacture new weaponry made with wolfbanes. Even though it was impromptu and we might not be able to produce as much as we needed to before the war breaks out, that is if there would be any war, we still needed to make as much as we can with the limited time we had.Everyone in the pack has been asked to stay indoors for security purposes except the head of each house who fends for the family and would need to go out in search of daily bread. If they notice anything out of the ordinary from their homes, they

~AthenaA feast was being held at the mansion with the whole pack in attendance. The gardens were filled with people from the resettlement area while the king, his dignitaries, and elders were in the great hall dining. There was plenty of food and drinks for everyone.It has been one month since I gave birth to my three little warriors. On the day i gave birth to them, my life changed completely. I felt a kind of inner peace that I had never felt before as they were laid beside me on the bed. All the pain I experienced while birthing them suddenly disappeared and was replaced with an unspeakable kind of joy.I had thought I was going to have just one kid. Throughout my pregnancy, I never went for an antenatal checkup even though Richard had suggested it a few times. I was very healthy and strong, so I didn't feel the need to go…maybe if I had, the doctor would have found out I was going to have triplets.My father and stepmother arrived a day after hearing the news, and my stepmother

~RichardSitting at the head of the dining table, I looked to my right and left at the two most important people to me in the world... One was heavily pregnant, looking like she was about to pop any minute, and the other was infectiously cheerful tonight because he had made a bold move, disregarding his fears, and it paid off big time.A few months ago, per my advice, James had told Nuella about his strong feelings for her. To his utter shock, she had revealed she fell head over heels for him from the first moment she set eyes on him in that dungeon. Their relationship blossomed quickly. I saw my best friend become the best version of himself. Nuella completely changed him and made him so much happier than I had seen him in years. I was eternally grateful to her. Fast forward months down the line, James told me he was finally ready to make that big move. I was so happy for him, and here we are now.He asked her to marry him, and she accepted his proposal.

~AthenaIt was a Monday morning. Richard drove me to the hospital after I complained about being sick. He left me in the care of the doctor as he had an important errand to run with James."I will be back in two hours, love," he said as he kissed my forehead.After he left, the doctor asked me what exactly was wrong with me, and I told him the symptoms I had been having for the past few days. I had kept them to myself as I didn't want to trouble Richard or anyone else. Today was quite different, unfortunately. I felt very lightheaded and weak and was unable to get out of bed until Richard came to my rescue and insisted on taking me to the hospital himself.The doctor took a sample of my blood and left.After a few minutes, he came back, a bubbly smile stretching his lips.I sat upright on the bed where I was resting, wondering why he was looking happy."Queen Athena, I bring you good news," he said cheerfully. I narrowed my eyes at him in surprise, as I thought of what good news he c

~RichardThe effects of the war have taken their toll on my kingdom these past few weeks. It will really take a long time to get over all that has happened, all because one silly man thought it was wise to avenge the death of his wicked, soulless brother.All the men who surrendered during the war have been put to good use rebuilding my pack, which they helped destroy. They have been allotted different duties in the pack. Some were sent to farms to become laborers and help the people in rural areas till the lands, plant crops, and harvest them. Others were sent to labor in building infrastructures, some of which were destroyed during their attacks with explosives, and so on.As for Alpha Gerald, after keeping him locked up for a week, I set him free, along with his men. He cried in appreciation, and we signed a peace treaty to seal the fact that we had now become allies.Today was the day of the scheduled meeting with the elders, and I still had no clue what they wanted to discuss, a

~AthenaToday, my father and his Luna will come to Black Knight Pack for my mother's burial, which is tomorrow. When he called and told me he would be coming with his Luna because she wanted to see me, I didn't know how to react to the news.All I said was, "Oh… Great.""She is a good woman, Athena. You will love her," my father had said.She was supposed to be my stepmother, but I was feeling quite nervous about seeing her.It has already been two weeks since the war was fought. Nothing is the same anymore. There is great grief all over the pack, in the resettlement area, and even in the mansion. Scores of people had lost their lives. I heard Richard and James discussing the other day, and they mentioned that the death toll had risen to 600 as bodies were still being found in different places. The only good thing about this fight was the fact that more people from the enemy pack had died. For every one lycan that was killed, four werewolves were killed too. So the ratio was 1:4, wh

~AthenaI was so tired but also excited about the fact that I had finally been saved by the two most important men in my life. If only my mother were alive to witness this moment, then my joy would be complete.It seemed as though the war had come to an end. Everywhere was a bit too serene. I didn't ask any questions on our way home as I was too tired to do so.When we got to the mansion, I was surprised to see a whole lot of people in front of it. They were scattered everywhere, sitting on grass and from the way they were being loomed over by some men wielding guns, I just knew they had to be from our enemy pack. We were about to make our way inside when three men from the crowd spoke one after the other.They were begging Richard to set them free. When the first had spoken, I felt a familiar dread curl up at the pit of my stomach. I brushed it off. No way! It just can't be.The second person spoke, and I still brushed it off. However, when the third person spoke, I felt that famil

~RichardI rose to my feet and ran a hand through my hair in frustration. Where has Athena gone? Why wasn't she in the cave as she was supposed to be?"No! She has to be there! I told her to stay there until I come," Alpha Kendrick bellowed in denial as he got to his knees, peering into the cave."Athena!" he screamed, his voice laced with pain. I could imagine how he felt as a father, and that was because I felt even worse. I didn't want to give in to my fears, though."Athena is safe, wherever she is," I internalized, trying to be positive.I checked the ground for fresh footprints that might belong to her, footprints I could trail to her new location, but I didn't find any."Athena!" Alpha Kendrick called out in shock. I immediately spun around."Come to me, my child," he added, extending his hands.With my heart in my mouth, I rushed towards him and went on my knees, peering into the small cave.There she was!She looked so frail as she staggered. I immediately rushed into the cav

~RichardHearing that Rebecca was dead was a very hard pill to swallow. Her death was especially painful because she had just made peace with her daughter, and they both needed time to create long-lasting, happy bonds. The moon goddess should have allowed her some more time, for Athena's sake! I sighed.I was looking out the window as we drove through the woods when my eyes suddenly latched onto something…someone…No! It can't be!I ordered the driver to stop the car, which he immediately did."Richard, what's the problem?" James asked, and I ignored him, rushing out of the car and towards the body lying on the ground, my heart racing rapidly.It was her! It was Jessica!"Fuck!!!" I screamed into the air, raking my hand through my hair in frustration as I sank to my knees, clamping my hand over my mouth as my body surged with emotion and pain, finding expression through the hot tears streaming down my face.I hardly ever cried, but for some reason, I couldn't help but do so at the go

~KendrickI was almost at the territory of the Black Knight pack when I got a call from Alpha Scott. My heart had been very heavy since receiving the second call from Athena informing me of her mother's death.All through the night, I had relived the years we shared, recalling pleasant memories from our past that I haven't seemed to let go of after several years. She was the first woman I ever truly loved, and I have never loved any woman as much as I loved her. Now she was gone. She didn't deserve to die.I answered the call from Alpha Scott and found out that King Richard was there with him. From his questions, I realized that he didn't know anything about Athena's whereabouts nor what had happened there.I told him I had some bad news, and his first inquiry, as expected, was about his wife. He wanted to know if she was okay.I paused, trying to find the best way possible to break the news about Rebecca's death to him."Alpha Frederick! Are you there?" he called out at my silence.
