Sophia POV

When I finished I went to my suitcase, grabbed the towel, wiped my face, took a sip of water and stretched, cracking some bones, to finish relaxing my muscles. Now all she needed was a good shower and she would be ready for the next step. I took out my cell phone and started looking at group messages.

When I started to answer one of them I felt a gaze directed at me and the characteristic smell of Achilles permeate the room, I know I got tense... I closed my eyes, shuddering, I don't know why, but I want to turn around and just throw myself in his arms of that man.

“Heavens! I need to get laid!”

I thought and shook my head, I had no problem screwing guys I just met, but that same feeling I have that I need Achilles is what's going to keep me away from him. I don't know what would happen to me if I let those instincts take over. But… My body doesn't want to do what my mind does, because I turned and looked into that man's eyes and it was like everything else lost color and t

  • Reborn from Ashes   Hospitalization

    Sophia POVI woke up feeling my body sore, my muscles had probably tensed while I was passed out. My mouth is dry and my head is pounding. It's like a hangover, only much worse. I hated it when that happened and it had been so many years since I'd had a seizure.It seems that meeting the Houroux had brought a lot to light and attacks that I haven't had for years would now occur frequently, panic, fear, anxiety… I don't want this for myself, I need to go back. Coming here was a bad idea.“I want to leave…” I said, my voice hoarse and dry, but I know he heard me.I open my eyes and blink a few times getting used to the white light of the hospital room.“Miss Turner… I'm sorry… It's my fault.” Hyperion's voice is filled with guilt."I just... I want to leave, as soon as possible." I spoke again and sat up and saw Hyperion handing me a glass of water. He looks much older now, there are black circles under his eye.“How long was I unconscious?” I asked and finally realized I'm wearing the

  • Reborn from Ashes   A talk with the psychiatrist

    Sophia POVI took a deep breath, twisting my mouth, and then handed him the handle of my suitcase. Do I really want to talk to Perseus and Hyperion? I honestly don't know... I hadn't said yes or no...Thinking about leaving... Going back to my friends, to my life... I can feel a metallic taste in my mouth. This is very strange, I'm having a physical reaction to a thought that could benefit me. My unconscious wants to stay here? Why?Alex grabbed the handle of his suitcase and started walking. I followed a little behind him. Trying to come up with explanations for my reactions. It was a complicated spiral. How long have I been displaying negative actions? I can't answer that precisely... I need a session with my psychiatrist.Soon we were in the car heading towards the building I was staying in, I took out my cell phone and texted the psychiatrist asking for an urgent session, she accepted, and now I just needed to get to the room to make the call to her. Meanwhile, I could feel my anx

    I grabbed my wallet and cell phone, they were the only things I needed, everything else I could buy. I walked towards and opened the door and looked over to see Alex standing there."Come on, we've got shopping to do!" I said smiling, wrapping my arm around his right arm, "I have to buy some new clothes and go to a make-up salon!" I started walking, pulling Alex, who was a little dazed. "Quick answer, I'm going to be here for a few days, enjoying my vacation... Which means I have to buy presents, clothes, make-up, hire a tour guide and lots of other things.""Um... But... Are you okay? Can you drink?" Alex asked, stopping in the middle of the corridor and looking at my face seriously."Well, that's a difficult question... No, I'm not fine, but I intend to stay... Which means I'm going to take my psychiatrist's suggestion and stop thinking too much about things and enjoy my well-deserved vacation, which I haven't taken in years." I answered as best I could at the time. "But that means

  • Reborn from Ashes   Choosing the right clothes

    Sophia POVI know Alex wants to talk to me, but I'm ignoring him, not giving him a chance to speak. I entered the mall. It was huge, with several floors and all kinds of stores, but the first thing I did was go to one of the dessert kiosks and grab a strawberry sundae with extra chocolate topping.I started eating as I walked past the stores. The club opened at 10 p.m., so I had a few hours to get ready. I need to buy my clothes first. I already know what I want to wear and what my makeup is going to look like. If I was with my friends, it would be easier, but here I needed to find my clothes first, then a place to change and do my makeup. The perfume isn't what I really like, but it will be easier to find something similar... So, let's go shopping.The first step was to go to a store with clothes for

    Sophia POV Angelica leads the way, showing us the way, we arrive at the back of that gigantic store, and there's an elevator in front of us, Angelica presses the button, and we enter, there's a very large mirror at the back and I see my appearance again. There are still black circles around my eyes, but I don't look so tired anymore, I have to say, Angelica did a great job on me, even though I was wearing very basic clothes. Alex is a little behind, his expression is solemn, he's understood that I don't want to talk, and I give him a little smile. Alex isn't a guy to throw away, but he certainly has a lot of women who want him... I took a deep breath and instinctively moved my hand to my stomach, feeling that twinge of nausea.

    Sophia POV"And do you realize how wrong that sentence is?" I looked directly at Angelica. "I live in the big city and work as a nurse... Do you know how many times I've had to treat someone precisely because the community they lived in didn't like them? Or because someone walked on the wrong side of the street? I've lost count..."I realize that the two women are uncomfortable."Yeah... Well... I'll probably only stay a couple more days before going to Europe, it'll be nice to go somewhere where I don't need a bodyguard and don't have to be afraid to be who I am." I finished and leaned back in my chair, closing my eyes. "I wanted make-up that matches my outfit."I know the mood has become heavy, but that's basically it, I may not be the best of people, but I can't stand

    Sophia POVJust as Alex was about to say something, the door opened, and the two women came in, they were dressed for the evening, Angela wearing a dark blue tube dress with some red rhinestones outlining her breasts, which went down to her waist on the left side and encircled her entire waist.Caroline was already wearing a dark pink top with purple details, a high-waisted white skirt that went down to mid-thigh and purple sandals with scales. They were both already wearing make-up."The only thing missing is the bag!" I said, standing up and holding my cell phone in my hand."Really! Come on, I'm sure we'll find something in the store!" Angelina said and I smiled."Um... What about my clothes?" I asked, remembering that someone really needed to take my clothes."One of O..." Caroline started to speak but stopped and looked at Alex."She means that one of the servants is going to come and get your clothes," Alex replied, and I knew Caroline was going to say another word.But I kept q

    Sophia POV"Let's see the cabin, girls!" I said excitedly and walked straight to the stairs and saw that there was another guard there, and this time I didn't have to speak because he quickly moved away. Room 13 was very interesting, with three sofas, two puffs, a table, a minibar and a balcony where you could see the whole dance floor. I threw my bag on one of the sofas and went straight to the balcony.I leaned forward with my hands resting on the edge of the balcony and watched as people started to come in, the music was already playing, something soft at the moment, and I closed my eyes, enjoying the situation.I only opened my eyes when I heard the door opening and the sound of several people coming in, I turned around, still leaning against the balcony and smiled, six new people had arrived, and they seemed to be couples.The way they looked at each other was something I'd seen in very few couples, they loved each other and I smiled, it was so beautiful to see because couples di

  • Reborn from Ashes   The Awakening

    Sophia POVWaking up should be easy, but honestly? In my current state, it's not. My whole body aches, as if needles are penetrating my muscles, and I let out a groan of pain. But that only worsens the situation, as my head starts spinning, even with my eyes closed.I took deep breaths several times to try and make the sensation go away, until I felt my hands being held. The touch is gentle and loving, and I can feel the sparks of destiny taking effect, spreading through my wrists and up my arms, easing my pain.After a few seconds, I managed to blink a few times before focusing my gaze. I know I should pay attention to Achilles and Perseus, but what catches my attention is a completely different smell.It's a strange mixture, dark yet warm at the same time… It's like black amber, with myrrh, mixed with the dry heat of the desert at sunset, where the sand still holds the warmth of the sun, but the air begins to cool. There's a subtle scent of dried earth after rain, rare and sacred, m

    Achilles POV"Shut up!" I yelled at the illusion, my voice reverberating through the space like a furious thunderclap.I turned abruptly to Perseus, my breathing heavy, and without hesitation, I raised my hand, slapping him across the face. The sharp crack of the impact echoed through the place, my Alpha widened his eyes, surprised not only by the blow but by the intensity of my gaze that openly challenged him."I know you better than anyone, Perseus, and I know you're not like this! You're not a monster!" I exclaimed."This is the second time I've put her in a hospital!" Perseus shouted, his voice filled with anger and despair.He pushed me hard, but my feet remained firm on the ground. His strength could have knocked me down, but I wouldn't back down."Next time she might not survive!" I said with determination. "And will you allow there to be a third time?"My voice came out cold as ice, sharp as a blade. I watched the red mark of my fingers begin to form on his face, standing out

    Aquiles POVThere is a lot of information, but it all makes sense… Although I don't like the idea of Khalid being a permanent part of our lives. I would have liked a moment just for me and Perseus with Sophia, something we've been seeking since the first moment we saw her, and now we have to accept that this moment may never exist.I closed my eyes for a few seconds and sighed. My body and my wolf are tired; after all, we've been drained intensely and constantly, and I feel my body losing strength and my legs giving in under the weight of exhaustion. Before I could react, I felt a pair of firm hands holding me, preventing my fall.“Aquiles!” Hélios shouted while hugging me around the waist.Hélios's scent became stronger, always with a woody touch and a hint of aged leather. That same scent calms me and gives me a bit more strength.“Hélios…” I whispered his name and rested my head on his shoulder. “I'm tired… My energy is drained.”“I know, my love.” Hélios said and led me to the bed

    Khalid POVWe opened the door and saw Alex there, he had already tidied up the room, and then Hélios gently placed Sophia on the bed, as if she were the most precious and fragile thing in the world. My heart tightened seeing her so vulnerable. Despite everything we've been through, I still don't know if this will last, if this connection will remain intact when the storm passes.‘What will Sophia think when she wakes up?’ I thought to myself, feeling the weight of that doubt in my chest.I sighed, automatically adjusting my suit, just to keep my hands busy. My eyes turned to Hélios, who now observed Sophia with a serene expression, something rare to see in him. I was still impressed at how someone so explosive and unpredictable could seem so calm at that moment.“No, I didn't know… At least not with 100% certainty, but I already suspected that something like this could happen.” Hélios finally turned to me, after adjusting Sophia better on the sheets. “What woke me up was feeling the b

    Khalid POV“You are dismissed… For now.” Azrik spoke after a few seconds, his voice carrying undeniable authority.His expression was one of suspicion, a glimpse of doubt that he couldn't openly express, as, at that moment, he had no concrete proof to support it. Nevertheless, his sharp eyes analyzed every detail, every remnant of truth hidden in the gestures of those present.“Soon, I will contact you regarding the punishment for Alpha Ivar Volkheim and his pack.” Azrik turned to Ivar, his gaze assessing and relentless.“Will she be okay?” Ivar asked, his voice filled with genuine concern.“Yes, she just needs to rest.” It was Aquiles who answered, with the usual calmness that characterized him.“I will analyze the information I obtained from the ritual and about the possible spells Gáta may have cast on Ivar and his pack.” Shangō declared, his tone firm, walking towards Ivar, who bowed in respect to the magnitude of his power.“We will wait.” Hélios replied, making an educated bow,

    Khalid POVBefore I could get an answer, a sharp, piercing pain shot through my chest, as if an invisible blade was tearing me apart from the inside. My gaze shot to Sophia. She was kneeling inside the circle, her eyes wide, her body trembling in involuntary spasms. A trickle of blood ran from her mouth, followed by an intense flow from her eyes, nose, and chest. The metallic smell spread through the air, permeating every corner of the hall.I stood up immediately, my instincts screaming in alarm. I placed myself between Aquiles and Hélios, a firm barrier preventing any rash advance."No!" My voice came out firm, unquestionable, filled with determination.At the same time, Ivar stood up and took a determined step towards Sophia. But something was different about him. His gaze, once filled with arrogance and superiority, now showed genuine concern. His aura was no longer as oppressive, and his stance seemed to differ from the ruthless man he had become over the years."Naomi!" He calle

    Khalid POVI know I said I don't care about seeing Sophia in the arms of others, but the truth is it hurts, but I shouldn't do anything about it, on the contrary… I must remain faithful to my words.I have known since the first moment I realized I am in love with this woman, that the rest of my life would be an eternal torture. That I would never have her in my arms and would always see her in the arms of others.I know that Azrik is paying attention to my actions, I couldn't hide the sad smile, but it lasted only a short time before I controlled myself, but I found it interesting that Hélios doesn't care about what I am doing.His reaction is the calmest possible, he just looks at Sophia embracing Aquiles with a gentle and loving smile on his lips. I know he noticed my sad smile, but he didn't do anything about it.Definitely, Hélios knows that I would never act in a way to hurt Sophia, I have done many things to protect her and it wouldn't be now that I would change my attitudes.Af

  • Reborn from Ashes   Rejection One

    Achilles POVI can feel the moment Sophia pulled my energy and breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that my mate is well, that she is conscious and that is already a great victory for me, because every second we stand still, unable to do anything, is agony.A few minutes later, the side door opened and I saw Azrik enter alone, he looked at Gáta who, before he could say anything, disappeared in a small purplish-green cloud.Seeing that color and feeling that pressure, I know that Gáta is involved with the curse, somehow she manages to pull energy from the Mother of Monsters. Khalid had said that the name for people involved in the cult of the Ancient Gods was “Cultists” and Gáta is definitely one of those people.The dragon's aura spread like fire spreading through a dry forest, but Hélios' aura protected me from the damage it could cause, especially since I am not at full strength.Boreas is doing his best to keep the connection with Sophia open and I know that if it weren't for that, m

    Sophia POVDespite his charged and imposing aura, I did not bow, for doing so would mean being afraid… I did just the opposite, I looked into his yellow, almost golden eyes, and whatever happens from now on, I cannot be afraid, for that could bring agony and reveal many secrets.“My name is Azrik Ragnharsen, I am the Elder of the Dragons and Judge of the Council of Races.” The voice of this man is hoarse, low, and has a different timbre than I have ever heard, it even has a strange sophisticated touch. “And you, despite your appearance, you don't seem like an innocent and fearful girl, as I was led to believe.”“That girl was called Naomi Blanchet… I am Sophia Turner, the head nurse at Gillian's Memorial… The Beta of the Moon Warriors pack and the woman who killed some of her enemies point-blank.” I spoke with determination, still holding my head high.It is difficult to identify the emotions on that man's face, but I managed to perceive a slight expression of pride.“Are you in your
