Athena

I blinked rapidly unable to fathom what was before me. The girl that responded to me earlier left my side as soon as a hefty-looking man approached me. His chest was bare. The only clothing on him was the hide of a leopard around his waist, such that a flimsy view of his muscular lap was exposed. The beards on his face were so much that his mouth was almost invisible.

“When did you arrive?” the husky voice inquired. I used to think my father had the scariest voice but I was proven wrong right on the spot. I began a tireless palpitation as I struggled to crawl away from him, moving on my already-bruised elbows. Sporadic coughing flew out of my mouth in replacement for an answer to his question. He pulled me by my hair towards what seemed like a thatched house in the midst of forest ground. The chaotic noise diminished as we approached the onlookers—a large group of young females and a scanty number of males. All looking unkempt and scrawny. I could tell I was t

    AthenaI ran into one of the scrawny-looking souls scattered at the front of the building. Surprisingly, he was a male. “Watch where you’re going,” he protested as some others grumbled from the impact as I unintentionally made a few of them trip.“Who are you?”“she’s one of us now,” the fat woman responded for me as I pulled myself back to my feet.“In that case, you need a change of clothing. You cannot hunt dressed as a clown. The man who seemed to be the leader stepped close to me as the crowd surrounding me dispersed. I saw a heap of old clothing drop before me. They were faded camouflage trousers and a bralette.“Hurry up,” the man commanded as I picked up the piece of cloth that looked like my perfect fit. Maybe this was a chance to finally get to learn the martial arts without having to hide, I said to myself, as my new outfit resembled the ones used by the warriors, except that they looked old. I crawled until I got to my feet. I searched around for a place to change when th

  • Omega to Alpha    10. A mistake

    AthenaWe retired back to the omega’s quarters, which had soon become a home I was not ready to accept. We all marched along in our numbers into the thatched house. I didn’t acknowledge the massiveness of the house until that night. There was a large hall behind the masters’ lodge. Old rusty bunks with tattered beds were scattered all over the place. It was like a heap of organized mess, with a stench of rotten food hanging painfully in the air. Everyone slumped onto his or her bed. I looked out for an empty space for myself. Luckily, I found one at the extreme corner, close to the only tiny window in the room. It was no surprise that everyone took off their clothes immediately after they got in—there was only one source of ventilation. I was still fully dressed, still in shock that such a place harbored living beings. It looked exactly like an abandoned store room for unused household items. I slumped on the bed, as my body wanted. I sneezed for a minute stretch before I could adjust

    Athena“Who else knows about this?” I whispered eagerly, looking around to be sure there were no eavesdroppers around.“Just you and I, for now.”“What do you mean for now?” I asked desperately, already losing my cool. Her smile was sickening. “Answer me,” I urged.“I don’t know either, but I’m sure they will never find out soon if…” she looked around her before leaning forward. I could feel the warmth from her mouth as she whispered hurriedly,“…if you help me.”She lost me at that point. It was as though there was more she wasn’t saying. Something I had to find out soon.“Follow me,” she said. At first, I felt infuriated to be ordered around by a small girl, but I was ready to let go of my pride. The unknown can be too scary to be left to chance. I followed her out of the thatched house. We headed towards the back, very close to the blacksmith that made the nametag.“I know how to get us out of here and we both need our help.”“What on earth are you talking about?” I questioned alre

    AthenaI had to stop. It felt like I was reliving my nightmare. The same cry. I looked around in search of the young girl until I heard the cry again. I was convinced she was the one. She needed me. I ran back towards her. Not because I felt strong enough to overcome the attacker but because I wanted to do something different. I always ran from the scream in my dreams. I chose to face it. I didn't consider the fact that I could lose my life in the process. She was laying helplessly on the ground when I found her. The attacker didn't stop hitting her even as he pulled her towards the route where we came. She seemed too weak to defend herself from the slightest hit. It was clear that he was one of the guards. I pounced on him with all the strength I could muster and yelled at the top of my voice,“Run and don't look back!” He wasn't in his wolf form but his human form was hefty and strong— just the right size to snap my bones into pieces. I sustained several injuries until I fell weak.

    AthenaI was surprised to see her sit on the ground in her cream royal outfit.“Why would anyone choose to die this way?” I asked as she brushed her palm over the grass around.It was obvious that she was the Alpha's daughter.“You've got a perfect life. You have everything you need. You are not treated like the omegas. Don't rub your title on my face,” I spitted angrily.She heaved a heavy sigh. After what seemed like an awkward silence, she replied, “When I heard of your presence here, I knew we had something in common.”“What do you mean?” I asked, anticipating her next words as she continued digging her fingers into the wet soil.“You sneaked your way to school, killed a warrior, and even fought with my father. It takes a lot of bravery to do that. Your story is all over the town.”I bit my lips as she spoke. Mr. Styles must be proud of how bad I turned. But, I felt ashamed when I remembered how disappointed my mother would be. I was living the exact life she feared. The life she

    AthenaI quickly flattened my back to the wall as the door swung open.“Scarlett! Where did she go again? Hey you, didn’t I ask you to always keep an eye on her?”“I’m sorry, Alpha but the princess asked for a few minutes of privacy,” another voice responded. The Alpha was just a few meters away from where I stood. I bit my fingers as I retained a still position.“Whose order would you rather follow, mine or the princess’? You’ll be so sorry if this turns out bad.”There was a sound from below. It sounded like the heel of the princess colliding with another metal.“Who’s there!” the Alpha shouted. I closed my eyes as I saw his shadow draw closer to the curtain. He swung it open and to my surprise, the princess blocked his view.“It’s me, father. I instructed my maid to leave me for a while. I just needed to cherish every part of the house since it would be my last time here.”“Scarlett, you don’t have to miss your pack. You will always be welcome. Besides, I’m sure your new pack would

  • Omega to Alpha    15. The Ceremony

    AthenaI stared at my reflection once again, before I took off the dress. I looked different. Elegant. For the first time, I acknowledged my beauty. I smiled to myself and whispered, “I wish you were here to see me, mum. I'm a princess now. Maybe a Luna.” I chuckled silently and helped myself with a clean cloth from the princess’ wardrobe. The time was far spent—a few minutes past 12 am. As I laid my head to rest on the large bed, I heard the sound of sporadic gunshots. I gasped out of bed, switched off the light, and tried to steal a look from the window. I couldn't see anything aside from the smoke suspended in the air from afar. That would have been me if Princess Scarlett hadn't rescued me. I gulped down the forming terror in my throat as I began dressing up for D-Day.“I believe you saved me. If truly you exist, you'll save me once more,” I whispered to the moon hanging above the trees from afar.“You can do this, Athena. You can,” I encouraged myself and took out the veil. It wa

    Athena“Scarlett! are you in there?” I heard the Alpha roar from without.I flung the shoes off my feet. The wedding gown was the last thing to take off.“If you don't respond I'll be forced to break in. You can't keep us all waiting.”Immediately I heard that I rushed towards the window, raising the hem of the gown as I managed to jump out. I began climbing down the pipe—the only escape route. I heard the door jam open from above me as I hastened downward. I could feel every ounce of blood rushing into my heart. I was too scared to cry this time. I looked around me when I finally landed on the field.“Scarlett!” I heard the Alpha's roar above me. The day was burning brightly. It was too easy to spot me. I tiptoed my way toward the entrance of the mansion. The number of warriors, both from my pack and the pack of the bridegroom discouraged me. I heard footsteps running toward me. I searched for a hideout. There was none. I spotted a trashcan a few meters from me. I rushed toward it an

    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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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.
