Sophia POV

I looked in the mirror and saw my reflection, I was wearing dress clothes, black tailored pants, along with a dark green shirt with sleeves that go a little above the elbow, with a V-neck that's a little more accentuated, but the bra I'm wearing helps to keep my breasts in place, plus I've put on a white belt along with white pumps. I wore light make-up, just a quick base, brown eyeshadow with a thin eyeliner, and red lipstick.

I took a deep breath, calming my heart as I felt the nervousness begin to set in. In a few minutes, I'm going to meet Achilles' family.

It's strange, I didn't feel that way with Hyperion, but it must be because of the circumstances... I already had contact with him when I found out I was Perseus' Fated One...

    Sophia POV"I see, that's quite interesting," I said. "And when you have mates who are fated to be the same sex?""That's very rare, I only know of 12 reports of it," Lucca said seriously."Is that because it's rare, or because when it happens, they reject each other for fear of being judged?" Since I'm planning to hold a gay parade, I'd better gather some information.Lucca remained quiet, and I stopped to observe his reactions, the small ones, the ones that hardly anyone can identify. He'd only really stopped to think about it now."I never stopped to think about it, since at least when I was Beta, I didn't get that kind of report," Lucca replied."It

It's different, and I don't like it." I replied, I know the more honest I am, the better.I feel Khalid approaching and I twist my lips, I don't want him to touch me."Sophia, breathe, pay attention to me," Achilles says, but it's a bit hard to concentrate on him, as every step Khalid takes makes me even more nervous. "Move away," Achilles says, and as soon as Khalid moves away, I breathe a little easier."Sophia, are these your feelings?" Achilles asks me, still holding me in his hands, and I look up at him, not quite

    Achilles POVI saw Sophia taking my blood and Perseus' blood mixed, Khalid had given us a small container with several runes engraved on it and I know there's some kind of spell, but he didn't explain it properly, he just told us to mix the blood in the same 1:1 ratio, one part mine, one part Perseus', the same amount, not a drop more, and it was harder than I thought.It sounds easy, but every time there was a drop more we saw the container glow black, and when it was finally in the right proportion the glow changed to red. As soon as Khalid saw this, he picked up the container and then had to use the command a few times to make Sophia open her lips and swallow, although her eyes were open, she simply wasn't conscious.As soon as Sophia had swallowed the last drop, Khalid released her from the command

    Sophia POV"Imagine this, you can talk to us by mental message, and we can answer you like this, without having to speak out loud," Achilles added."Ahhhh! Got it, now it makes sense!" I said more excitedly. "Does that work with anyone?""No, there are levels... For example, the Houroux family can do this regardless of distance and place with their Fated One." Perseus began to explain. "In general, I as an Alpha can communicate with anyone in the pack, as long as they are within the territory, but not every Alpha can.""I see, and I'm managing to do it with you two... I mean, I heard Helios, but not you two.""It's easier for us because we've been used to it since we were children... For us, it's like you're sho

"Take Alex's blood, that'll be enough for now."Alex looked at me in horror and then at Achilles."Come on!" I spoke louder and put my hand to my head. I may not hear Daemon, but I know he's in pain, he's suffering, and I can't keep seeing it.Khalid approached Alex and wrapped his arms around him, the next second his fangs dug into the neck of my Gamma, who was looking directly at me. I knew he wanted to resist, but he wouldn't, because it was my order. I asked Khalid to feed on him.I can see Daemon's shadow stop twitching afte

    Sophia POVKhalid helped me get ready, and I finally managed to get out of the bathroom. My face wasn't as swollen, but my eyes were still slightly red. Achilles is standing in the middle of the room, he's worried, but at the same time he's in pain, his shoulders are kind of bent, and he's exhausted, he's raised his face, and he's apprehensive.I walked over to him and hugged him, putting my arms around his waist. He immediately hugged me back and his body relaxed, as if a great weight had been lifted off his shoulders. He probably felt all my pain and fear."I'm sorry..." I said, but Achilles put a finger to my lips."No, don't apologize, there's no one to blame here. You have every right to feel that way, Soph."

    Sophia POVThe lesson passed quickly with Hyperion teaching me more about the surrounding packs and how they behave, for example, to go from one pack to another, it's always good to let them know beforehand, even when it's a party, the packs around the Warriors of the Moon have an agreement among themselves, about coming and going to the nightclubs that they can pass without problems, as long as they carry their IDs.An official document has been created around the pack, and all the people in it must wear it. It's like a kind of ID. It contains the name, rank, and place of origin and has the seal of the smaller pack and that of the Moon Warriors, as well as three of their wolves' hairs and a small place where there's a piece of fur. That way, the trackers could always identify it by smell.Not every wo

    Alex POVSince Sophia woke up and we had that revealing conversation, where I could see that she truly accepted who she was and what was happening, the balance between us began to flow more easily. I feel my wolf strengthening every day, and I realize I had never considered humans the way Sophia described. It makes perfect sense, as almost every race I have known or heard of has a human counterpart. Humans are incredibly versatile, which gives me confidence that Sophia will survive the rejection ritual.I'm not sure how much damage it will cause her and her companions, my Alpha and Beta, but I have faith that they will recover. And, honestly? Even after the rejection ritual, I will never abandon Sophia. I will always be her Gamma, her protector. Unlike Perseus and Achilles, my function is to protect my Luna from her own companions if necessary.This function did not arise by chance. For a long time, Alphas imprisoned their Lunas so that they would not be "tainted" with inappropriate t

  • Reborn from Ashes   Acceptance and Adaptation

    Sophia's POVI woke up some time ago. Perseus and Achilles were not by my side, but that didn't worry me because Alex was in the room. Unlike before, I'm not tired, I don't feel any pain, and my mind is clearer than ever.At this moment, I am looking out the window, observing the buildings below and the movement of the people. I've done this a few times because it's interesting to know that there are people who have no idea what's happening, that the world is changing, and that there are people protecting them so they don't get hurt.I closed my eyes and let the sunrays warm me. I am at peace and have accepted my destiny. Knowing what I am is very different from being in the dark. No matter how complicated things are, I have a definitive answer about what I am."Sophia, are you okay?" I heard Alex's voice behind me.I smiled and turned around, putting my hands in my pockets."Yes, I am." I replied."You're different." Alex added."I know, but it makes sense. Now I know what I am. I al

  • Reborn from Ashes    Inner Strength

    Sophia's POVI blinked several times, feeling my body aching, especially above my heart, it was a sensation as if there was a weight on it trying to crush me. I took deep breaths several times, trying to block out the pain.It wasn't easy to do this, because the sensation changed to feeling like a hand was wrapping around my heart and starting to squeeze, wanting to explode it. The force used was extreme, but I wasn't going to give up so easily.Then I felt another hand on top of mine, and gradually the pain disappeared, and I could breathe better. Finally, I could fully open my eyes and saw that Alex was by my side. It was he who helped me overcome this challenge."Are you feeling better, Luna?" Alex asked, concerned.I rolled my eyes at him calling me by my title."I've told you that you can call me Sophia." I replied and saw him smile.Honestly? If I wasn't hopelessly in love with Perseus and Achilles, I would definitely have gotten closer to Alex."If you're smiling like that and

  • Reborn from Ashes   The Promise to Improve

    Aquiles' POVAs soon as everyone left, Soph's body relaxed, she had fallen asleep. Even after so many revelations and knowing that she is a being completely different from any other, she is still weak. Perhaps in this incarnation she is human, which is why she is so fragile.I stepped back and let Perseus put her to bed. I took a deep breath, knowing that my conversation with him would not be pleasant, but I wanted to do it now, in this place, because I knew he would have to control himself or it could affect Soph."Perseus, you need to take care of yourself... Deal with this jealousy you feel." I spoke in a normal tone, without letting my aura grow.I saw him close his eyes and his hands tremble as he stood up to look at me."I can't be as cold as you!" Perseus said through gritted teeth, moving away from Soph. "How can you be like this? Didn't you see the way they looked at each other?"I took a deep breath; Perseus seemed like a child, and this was becoming unbearable. Soph wouldn'

  • Reborn from Ashes   Internal Battle

    Khalid's POVThese past few days have not been easy, especially after I confessed my feelings to Hyperion. However, he knows I didn't act on them, and that's what kept me in the pack. Moreover, I made a blood promise not to interfere with the bond of fate, even after they reject each other. There's little chance this promise will be broken, and I doubt I have any chance at all.Part of me wishes for an opportunity to get closer to Sophia, to feel her in my arms. But my code of honor will never allow that part to take over. As punishment, Hyperion asked me to stay away from Sophia and only approach her when absolutely necessary. He reminded me that I have many duties to fulfill within the pack.That's how I spent the last two days, never getting close to the room, always following Hyperion's orders and also preparing the protective runes that would be placed on Perseus and Achilles, as we don't want the curse to spread any further.Gata is even more suspicious about what's going on wit

  • Reborn from Ashes   Explanations

    Sophia POV"From what you yourself have told and written, you were one of the first creations of the Mother of Monsters, a way to dominate and surpass other races. A creation to be one of the most powerful weapons of this Ancient." Isak began to explain. "The Ancient Gods were losing that battle, so they united to create the curse and imprisoned the Mother of Monsters within you, because as the first Chimera to be created, you have the ability to absolve the new creatures that would emerge and be created by the New Gods."Isak took a deep breath, with a touch of sadness."The problem is that the Mother of Monsters is very powerful and found a loophole in the curse to free herself. Despite you being countless different creatures, you can be killed." Isak turned his face and looked out the window, surely remembering something. "Over the ages, a creature would die. The energy of the Mother of Monsters would spread to those around, corrupting them... You were hunted many times, and each t

  • Reborn from Ashes   What am I?

    Sophia POVThere's something different in the air, I still can't figure out exactly what... But I'm absolutely sure it has to do with this man's appearance.If 1% of what I know about Miskatonic University and the Ancient myths is true, then we're doomed... Which makes me even more suspicious of this man, because it means that there are cultists out there...People who want to free the Ancients and who are involved with twisted, “ profane” magics that are far more powerful than Gáta can ever access.My eyes met Khalid's and it was a silent conversation, he understands me, more than Perseus and Achilles, at least as far as this situation is concerned. I know that your Daemon is extremely powerful and very old. This knowledge is not because I drank his blood, because I know that I am no longer bonded to him...This silent conversation has to do with our way of thinking, with our ability to see the dark side of people and situations, with our difficulty in fully trusting someone.

  • Reborn from Ashes   Burn or Freeze

    Note: In the previous chapter, there was an error in the translation.The correct phrase to introduce Isak is: “It was my fault.” The man replied. “My name is Isak Petrov, I'm the Dean of Miskatonic University.”Perseus POVI clench my other hand tightly, because I can't stand to see the way Khalid and Sophia get along, I know it's stupid of me, but I'm trying to control this jealousy and as if that wasn't enough... Khalid is now very close to my father too.The two of them had a meeting the day Sophia went back to sleep and after that they seem to have become even closer...I can't understand how everyone is involved with this vampire, his charm doesn't appeal to me and I simply can't accept him. As soon as he gave me that stupid order, I rolled my eyes.“It's not something I can do...” I said through my teeth.“Just because you've never tried it before... Helios' ability is gigantic, just like the Sun... He can burn to purify or burn to destroy. All you have to do is concentrate on

  • Reborn from Ashes   A new ally

    Achilles POVIt's been two days since Sophia went back to sleep, and honestly, I'm scared to death that she won't survive the ritual... There are so few days until the full moon... My heart squeezes just imagining something like this happening.I know we have to do this ritual, but it's not something I want to do, because I want to stay connected to Sophia in every way possible. I just wanted to find a way to control this curse.I saw what it caused... I watched the videos of the attack Perseus and I made, it was a massacre and the howls and screams of the enemies make me shudder to this day. I know it was real, but for me it was nothing like that, I simply wanted to kill everyone who was a danger to my pack and my mates.I even had to give a short interview and that's exactly what I said live. As well as explaining that Sophia is sleeping once again, since what happened at the Gay Parade was very intense.I realized that many people were afraid of me and Perseus... But they respected
