Sophia POV

The two of them raised their heads and bowed briefly to Perseus and Achilles, Andreas' expression that of someone who doesn't know what to do.

"Relax." "I've never been a fan of this hierarchy stuff." I smiled and then looked at the screen, realizing that it was a plot of land seen from above, some houses had been destroyed, as well as the farms, the road that should come here and also a forest around it.

The more I look at those images, the more they seem familiar. It's not as if I've seen this before, but it's a feeling of déjà vu, that I've seen something like this before. I feel Perseus' hand on my back and he smiles.

"It's probably a side effect of what I saw." He told me. "That must be why it seems so familiar to you."

I nodded.

"If someone else had said something like that to me, I would have laughed," Andreas commented. "But you can see the three of you together. At first, when you came in, I found it strange, but just this little interaction lets you know that you'

    Sophia POV"Not that different." I cut him off. "For example, depending on the RPG you pick up, there are wizards, sorcerers, druids, bards and various classes that use magic. One of the things I find coolest is when there are paladins, after all, what's better than walking around with a symbol saying that the God you serve has given you powers? Officially." I smiled. "Anyway... What I mean is that I have a lot of experience in making plans to destroy a city or assassination attempts. At least in theory.""If you carry on like this, Andreas and Lilian will end up losing their post," Achilles said, laughing out loud."Hey!" Andreas said, but he also started laughing, and then took a deep breath. "But your analysis is correct, at least for the most part. Yes, we have some equipment for detecting magic, our scientists took a few years, but they managed to create it... We just don't have that many, because it's not something we like to publicize, and mass-producing equipment like that wou

    Sophia POVI slipped my arm through Hyperion's and started walking towards the exit."See you later, we've got lots to do!" I said.I heard a low laugh from Andreas and Lilian, but the aura of my Alpha and Beta was complicated, it showed that they were proud, but also shocked by everything that had happened and the way I think.It shows how much I've evolved, how much I've changed... From the innocent girl to the woman I am now. I had already read that traumatic events are what make us mature more quickly, and this applies to both individuals and the collective.Wars always manage to make technology evolve much faster, whether on the medical or military side.The ride to the elevator was silent."Are you all right, Sophia?" Hyperion asked me."Um... I'm thinking about how I got here." I replied and smiled a little tiredly."Tell me, are you ever going to tell me what happened? Who is responsible for putting you in the hospital?" Hyperion asked sincerely."Yes, because now I know I'm g

  • Reborn from Ashes   A happy memory

    Sophia POVAfter a few minutes, Angelica calmed down enough and Hyperion then walked away, but first, he gave her a light kiss on the top of her head and handed her a white handkerchief that he had taken out of his pocket.Angelica then looked at me, turning red, probably ashamed of what had happened, but once again I smiled at her, to reassure her that I didn't judge her any less for expressing herself, but I'm glad I was able to get it off my chest.I hear a knock on the door and soon Hyperion opens it and the smell of meat spreads. I feel my mouth fill with water, Hyperion quickly serves me a plate and I start to eat, forgetting anything else around me.It's just perfect, with every piece of meat I feel stronger and the smell of things becomes more intense, as does the sound of their breathing.I think Hyperion said something to Angelica because I feel her presence disappearing from the meeting room, but I don't raise my head to make sure, I just keep eating. I think there were at

  • Reborn from Ashes   Second chance?

    Achilles POV"What happened?" I asked without understanding anything, but more relieved that Sophia was stabilized."I felt a very different aura coming from here, and I came as fast as I could," Khalid explained. "Alexander stayed in my lab, as soon as the results come back he'll let me know, but honestly? I don't think we need to wait that long."Khalid approached the bed."Better not clean it and let all the blood be absolved." Khalid sighed. "I felt a very strong magical aura coming from the room, you may not have noticed it, but it was certainly emanating from Sophia. What happened?""She told the story of when she met a man and sure enough, he was her fated mate... She even said that he smelled delicious." Perseus summarized."So, remember the theory about Sophia having a witch's organ? I think that's it, I don't know if it was deliberate or not. The human world is different and since I haven't been able to find out where her surgery took place, there's no way I can investigate

    KhalidWhen I took this job, I was curious about how it was possible for werewolves to have more than one mate. I'm very old, and I've seen it happen with other races, and they were usually extremely strong races.The last time I recall this happening with werewolves was with one of the ancient Kings, who was a Lycan. He was the last Lycan alive... He reigned for a long time and was murdered by his peers who were jealous of his power. When he lost his mates, he gave up on his will to live and became vulnerable. He was easily defeated.There are stories in my library about dragons having more than one mate, but now they're practically extinct. The possibility of Sophia being a dragon is non-existent, and so I looked for other options.Each possibility is just as extraordinary as the last. Feeling her aura, practically a hammer blow to the transplant theory... But there's another one, which is much worse, and I don’t think that they're prepared to deal with it.My instincts are that Sop

  • Reborn from Ashes   One conversation, one request

    Khalid - Three days laterSomething unexpected has happened. Both Perseus and Achilles have gone into hibernation with Sophia.The intensity of their energy transfer has increased significantly, causing Sophia's weakness to interfere with their bodies.Even though Alexander brought the results from the lab, the information was inconclusive. There was a very strong interference with Sophia's blood, which caused even my very high-tech and magical lab to not be able to identify her DNA and give a more in depth analysis. Another indication leaning towards the theory that a curse has been placed on Sophia. Another side effect is that Alexander's aura has grown as well, which makes sense due to the fact that he is Luna's Gamma in the pack and that it is his duty to protect her.Due to Alexander being connected to all three in different capacities, he's still benefiting from the situation. Seeing as Sophia is in hibernation, it would be obvious that Alexander's power would increase to ensur

  • Reborn from Ashes   In the middle of the road

    Sophia POVI'm in a different and strange place.. I don't understand and I can't make sense of it... I know it's not natural, or at least, I don't think it is... It could possibly just be my imagination. My logic tells me that I'm in a coma.I know that there are several reports of supernatural encounters while in this state, but to me, it always seemed to be the imagination of someone who wants to give meaning to something we can't explain.The difference is that now I know that Gods and supernatural creatures and beings exist. This is causing a war in my mind as my rational self and the atheist part of me doesn't want to accept this fact so easily. I am finding it more and more undeniable the longer I'm here. I feel myself drifting to a very far and distant place, my body growing colder the further I go. I know that I will reach a place where I will no longer be able to turn back.It's tiring to keep fighting because I've already suffered so much and this whole situation with Ac

    Sophia POV"What happened?" I ask confused. My mind is scrambled. I don’t even remember anything from the last time I was awake."You slept for five days." I hear Khalid's voice say.I turned the rest of the way to see him.'That time. The voice.’ I thought and tilted my head to the left."There's something..." I whisper. I close my eyes and take a deep breath, feeling a twinge a little further back, near the top of my head.I know where it is... The lower left parietal lobe... Near, but not near where the memories are stored."Sophy..." Perseus' voice calls me and I open my eyes to look at him.He has a handkerchief in his left hand, which he hands to me. Only then do I realize that my nose is running."I've prepared a little potion to help you recover," Khalid says, approaching me and holding out a small vial of red liquid for me to take."Minor life potion, 1d4 life," I said with a low laugh and took the vial from him.I drank it all down in one gulp. It really does taste like bloo

  • Reborn from Ashes    What is a Luna's Gamma

    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.

  • 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.

    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

    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
