Omega to Alpha 71. The Night Howlers
Athena's POV"Say nothing," he whispered, his eyes glinting in the moonlight as he laid me down on the cold, hard slab. I felt weak and vulnerable, my body exposed to the harsh elements, but there was something in his touch that made me feel safe, even as I sensed danger lurking all around us.The wind howled, whipping my hair around my face as he bit into his wrist, drawing forth a few drops of his dark, viscous blood. With a steady hand, he brought the wound to my lips, and I felt a strange, almost primal urge to drink.As the blood trickled down my throat, I felt a sudden surge of strength, my senses sharpening as the world around me came into sharper focus. But even as I felt my powers returning, I couldn't shake the feeling that there was something mysterious and dangerous about this man, something that I couldn't quite put my finger on.With each drop of blood, I felt a deeper connection forming between us, a bond that defied explanation and seemed to transcend time and space.
Omega to Alpha 72. Exposed Traitor
Athena's POVStronger mind. More boldness. I'd never known my wolf, Sue to be as fearless as the night of my induction.The other wolves surrounded the yelling body. I ran into their midst. Immediately, I recognized the scent.Walking around her, I sniffed further. The others growling at her ready to tear her up.I growled at my newest pack members, asking them to back away while I transformed back to my partly human form."You either bow to my rule or dare to be their first prey," I threatened. She kept wailing. The pain of betrayal must have caused her so much but she didn't seem to surrender,"Never! I'd rather die than bow to a female Alpha, let alone the one whom I so much despise. Bitch!"The others threatened to attack but I stopped them."Let by gone be by gone, Scarlett else, you've the chance to run and never look back. it's the only favor I can afford you or I leave you to my hungry pack," I threatened, my voice loud and threatening."Not until I collect all that belonged
Omega to Alpha 73. Missing
Athena's POVEvery time. Every single time. I hit a new phase. When I see hope for better days, life creeps in. Cripples my hope and sends me back to that same pit.

"We'll find her," Kevin whispered in my ears, hugging me. He must have felt like he was being comforting, but, that was not what I needed. Nothing could comfort me better than to find my baby. My Cosmo, back in my arms. My World. She was all that mattered to me. My reason for believing in a future.Hope had always been a bad bitch. It couldn't help me. it never did.The once possible future turned into a dark cloud of misery.I heard Kevin organize a search team outside. I heard their growls. He acted more like the Alpha. Doing what I should be doing. Not just because I was the elected Alpha, but because it was my duty as
Omega to Alpha 74. Unspoken History
Athena's POVInstinctively, I replied, "Mother?" unsure of the appropriate word to address her, after knowing my real mother died years ago.My utmost shock was finding her in Dante's palace, holding Cosmo."It's truly you, Athena," she breathed, her voice breaking from the same feeling I felt. Longing. She was alive all these years. All these years I wished I had someone to share my anguish.My foster mother, or rather my mother was alive. She was the only woman in my life that stood the mother figure for me. I forgot all about everything for the next moment and ran into her weak embrace.My eyes watered as I looked in awe at her. Every strand of her hair was grey. But there was no mistaking her eyes and her voice. I hugged her again. Unable to believe my eyes."Fate has brought us back together. I never thought i'ld find you ever again," she sobbed. I took her hands, as he seemed to be weak. I guided her to one of the seats in the lobby."Athena... I'm sorry for all I've caused
Omega to Alpha 75. Old Flames
Dante's POVI couldn't tell if it was the recent stress from the kingdom or my emotions toiling with my mind, but I could swear that I felt her presence. I perceived her.I knew it was impossible for her to be around. No one would ever come back after such rejection."Why are you out of your room, mother?" I approached my mum as I arrived at the lobby.The other woman in front of me backed me, but I saw my daughter in her hands. She must be one of the maids.I noticed the tears in my mother's eyes. I was forced to ask,"What happened while I was away? Was there another attack? Can someone answer me? Where are the other maids?" I continued, but I got no reply. I was about yelling at the woman, whom I mistook for a maid when she turned around."Athena..." my words trailed off. My worry-stricken face melt into fear, passion and regret. I lived to regret the very day I rejected her. I wished there was some way I could seek forgive or turn back the hand of the clock. But I knew Athena. T
Omega to Alpha 76. Alpha's Contender
Athena's POVThey all gathered around me, wanting to here how and where I found Cosmo. I walked into the cabin, along with the same woman who helped breast feed her in my absence. I uttered no words to anyone, including Kevin."Under no circumstance should she ever leave your sight," I ordered and went back outside."Gather around, Every single one," I sent a message to the general mindlink. Waiting at the forest clearing. I marveled at the growing pack as they converged in troops. Drooping heads, agile spirits. That was all they knew best to do. If they were competent, Cosmo would have never left my sight. I would never have set my eyes on Dante. I would have lived with the version of him I chose to believe. Now, it was all ruined. Too late to go back in time. He was the beast. He was everything I never imagined. The worst. And there was no going back this time. My tiny hope of us getting back together had been dashed against a rock.But to make that work, I had to prepare my pack.
Omega to Alpha 77. Secret Weapon
Athena's POVPain exploded in my skull as Scarlett's fist connected with my temple. The crowd around us gasped, ready to come to my defense, but I held up a hand to stop them. I was the Alpha, chosen by the moon goddess herself. There was no way an ordinary wolf was stronger than me. But as I stumbled back, reeling from the blow, I couldn't help but feel a twinge of doubt.Scarlett advanced, a sneer twisting her blood-stained lips, "So much for an Alpha," she taunted, and I gritted my teeth, struggling to pull myself together before she could land another hit."That's enough," growled Kevin, stepping forward. His eyes glowed a soft orange, a sign that his wolf was close to the surface. "She's trying to kill you, Athena."I glared at him, my heart pounding with a mix of fear and anger. "Stay out of this, Kevin. This is strictly my business and I'll prove a point to her.""I swore to protect you on the night of your coronation," he reminded me, his voice low and fierce. "I'm not going t
Omega to Alpha 78. New Territory
Athena's POVAs the sun began to rise, I surveyed the aftermath of the battle, taking headcount of the survivors. Cosmo was safe in my arms but the losses were great.I could still hear the screams in my head. It was later I realized Kevin wasn't part of our number. We'd lost him.For the first time since we marked eachother, it felt like I lost a mate. A true Mate.I slumped onto a log beside a babbling brook, tears streaming down my face as I groaned under the weight of the loss.We barely were up to a hundred. For a pack that was trice that amount.Although, we had overcome impossible odds and fought off the threat of the vampires and some rogue Lycans, temporarily, There was still much to be done. And we've already recorded so many losses.We needed to regroup, rebuild, and prepare for the next attack.It would be stupid of us to think we could relent. The threat of the vampires still loomed, and we needed to be ready but I needed to cry out the burden. I needed to help myself t

Omega to Alpha 87. Finding a Mate
Athena's POVOur new territory was fortified with bars and gates. For a whole week, we put the place in order. Taking out the dark magic of the vampires, burning down dungeons with vampire prisoners.A week passed and still I hadn't reached out to Kevin.Each time Cosmo would ask of him, I gave her the same reply,"He left."I realized no one could take his position better than him."He helped us overcome the vampires. He killed his people for us. Why wouldn't you trust him? He's saved us twice," Sue scolded one afternoon, when I got back from visiting the construction at the borders.Dante also built the training center as promised at the center of both kingdoms.I tried not to believe her. Kevin was a werewolf and a Vampire. It was hard to trust hybrids like him. But I gave in, sending him a mindlink,"We need you back, Kevin." I waited for a reply but it didn't seem forth coming."Alpha," one of the guards came to me, as I sat at dinner with Cosmo."You've a letter," he added with
Omega to Alpha 86. New Legacy
Athena's POVOf a truth, I was more than glad to see Kevin again. And the fact that he saved my life yet again from the blues melted my heart. As he held my wrist with Cosmo in our middle, it only felt right to give love a chance.But there was Dante. And I felt it. I felt the spark like it never left. Maybe Kevin could help me forget about him. The sight of Dante soaked in his blood, needing help, tortured me.I was barely a meter away. Tears dropped down my cheeks as we stepped out. I managed to hide those tears as Kevin said,"We have to burn the bodies."i halted in my steps, squatted to the same eye level as Cosmo,"Are you alright?" She nodded a response, as I noticed how feebly she looked."What's wrong?" Kevin asked."She passed out earlier.""I know a safe place she can stay untill we clear the mess around here," Kevin hadn't completed his statement when Cosmo began to throw up. Kevin rushed to carry her and ran. I trailed his steps, scared for my daughter's life. Her bod
Omega to Alpha 85. Final Showdown
Dante's POV"Who are you?" I demanded, turning around. It was pitch black but I saw two blood shot eyes glowing."A prisoner, just like you're now. You smell like fresh blood.""I'm not a prisoner," I corrected, ignoring who ever it was as I tried to find my way out."It's a waste of time," the voice said.I was beginning to believe the words until I felt a door knob. But, it pulled open without my effort. I backed away as three men barged in to me, holding lamps. "What have you done, Dante!" the man in front, with thick beards roared, while the other two men held me down."Have we met?" I asked, without regard for the authority he seemed to command.There was a loud noise coming from outside. Like a war. Then I realized my warriors were around, giving me more courage."How dare you come into my kingdom to cause havoc!" I caught a view of the turbulence outside behind him. It was a bloody sight. It was hard to tell who was winning the fight. "I presume you're the vampire Lord, ar
Omega to Alpha 84. Saving Cosmo
Athena's POVMy heart pounded heavily as we got into the surroundings of a large mansion. I had Cosmo climb on my back before we passed the rocky slope. Her weight slowed me down, as the witch led all through.I saw a large mansion, and my uneasiness only grew wild.She pulled me back as I continued toward it,"We have no business with the Vampire Lord, remember? It's this way," she said.We took the first turning to our right and proceeded down a flight of stairs that had mosses and spirogyra growing all over its surface."Where's this place?" I asked, in awe."the sacred grounds. It was the same place my people were killed and sacrificed. We would most certainly encounter opposition here. It's never left unguarded."I instinctively clutched my arm around Cosmo's wrist on my neck as we continued down the multiple stairs.She gestured for me to stop, her eyes glistening as she looked around us.A piercing cry struck me. Cosmo's cry. "Cosmo!" I yelled as I pulled her from my back to t
Omega to Alpha 83. Vampires' quarters
Dante's POV"I need your help," I broke the surprise on his face as I approached the front deck."How may I be of use to the King?" Tony asked with his crooked voice, broken with old age."The Vampire Lord. I need to know him. I need to find him. Is that too much to ask of you tonight?""My King, does not believe in sorcery. I'ld rather not bother you," he said with a bow."It's an order, Tony. It's the only chance I have. Get on your horse. Are your legs too feeble to ride?" I enquired, as he pulled an Arabian horse toward me, immediately I made the order."My skills are very much intact. my major concern is our sudden visit to the vampires. Their powers are twice as much now," he suggested, brushing the hair of his horse like one preparing for an honorary visit. "That's why you're coming with me. Do whatever you have to do.""I'm stricken with age Alpha. I'm not the best man for a fight. I can only see in part. That's the only power I have. We may need back up."We rode out of the
Omega to Alpha 82. Dry Bones
Athena's POVThe pack's healers fed the witch with herbs she'd requested herself, pointing at trees around, including wolfsbane.I squatted beside the old witch, watching how she rolled the herbs into several balls, applying the juice into every opening on her face, including her nostrils.She kept a few of the balls in her clothing,"We may need some of these. Just in case," she said.Behind me was a troop. The entire pack, arranged according to their war experiences and agility. The feeble ones amongst us were made to converge at the middle. An order we've maintained since our conception as a pack, forming a defense against the weak. Everyone prepared their weapons. Animal horns, drenched with liquid silver and wolf bane, arrows, daggers, and spears. The only weapon I had with me was the witch who seemed to know alot about our enemy."We don't have much time," the witch said in a crooked tone groaning in pain as she got back on her feet.She held a walking, but what she did with
Omega to Alpha 81. Sinister Affair
Dante's PoVI was confused. Someone was in there with her. Who was it that made her laugh more cheerfully than I ever made her? After all my efforts at making things work. Why did they choose to hide in such filth?"I don't know what's going to happen now that he's marked me. We might have to cut our seeing,"Charlotte's whisper reached my hearing even louder. There was no mistaking her voice. I followed her scent. The surprise clouded my reasoning of what could be.I was more interested in knowing how the conversation would end. I wanted to find all the answers without having to confront both of them yet my rage boiled like wild fire."His reign is for a while. We've come this far. Very soon, we'll form our own empire. I'm tired of staying in the dung. But, anything to be with you.""You flatter me.""Some day we're gonna have this on his bed. Make you moan and cry my name.""That's too risky. He'll kill you.""I've never been afraid of death. You're quick to forget my status. I'm
Omega to Alpha 80. Steamy pleasures
Dante's POVAlarmed, she scanned my face and the flowers in my hands.I didn't know what to do but my heart raced.She had to say something. I desperately wanted her to accept my offer before I changed my mind. After all, that was what she always wanted. The moment only grew more awkward and to my amazement she dashed out of my presence."Charlotte!" I yelled, dumping the roses in my hands to chase after her. She tripped on her dress but I caught her before she got up."That's not how to treat your husband, the king!" I raised my voice. It was too late to caution myself, as tears began to stream down her face."I'm sorry," I managed to say, looking into her eyes to soften the moment."There's no doubts, you're drunk again," she responded, pulling away from me and running towards the palace.I watched her run from me, heaved a sigh before trailing her footsteps.I didn't expect her to be difficult.I had to end all of it today. I had to prove to my mother that all she wanted from At
Omega to Alpha 79. Mending Hearts
Dante's POVShe was gone. I scoured every conceivable place, desperately searching for her, but she eluded me. My mother made it even more challenging for me to forget."Have you looked into neighboring packs? Don't you care about your daughter at all?" my mother interrogated one morning during breakfast."I've done everything I can, mother. There are no packs around save the vampires. Besides, She's better off without me," I replied, burdened with overwhelming guilt."Immersing yourself in strong wine and distancing yourself from your family won't lead to healing, my son. Find my grandchild as soon as you can."Her words struck me with such force that I dropped my cutlery in frustration, unable to bear the weight of her unending accusation."And what about Ben? Charlotte is the Queen Mother. It was wrong for me to have fallen in love with a werewolf in the first place. This is my way of setting things right, just as you wanted," I snapped back, muffled by the towel on my lips as I re
