As they walked to the dance floor, Alex watched Athena. She was eerily quiet and he guessed she was just really shy due to the looks she was getting from the people.

And also, Alex noticed that as they passed by people, they bowed. It was a sight. He remembered that a few weeks ago, no one regarded him due to his status as a footman but now that everyone knew him to be King, it all changed.

Before they got to the dance floor, a man cornered them. Athena frowned but Alex wanted to bear what he had to say.

He bowed to Athena and then to Alex. "Congratulations, my King. May your reign on the Antarti throne be long."

"Thank you." Athena said.

The man turned to Alex. "It's surprising to know that after all these while, you were King. I knew it."

Alex was going to ask this man if this was the reason why he stopped him but he refrained from doing so. All he needed was a little patience.

    "I always knew King Athena and that footman had a chemistry right from the moment I set eyes on them both," One of the elders spoke beside Damien who was fuming as he watched Athena and Luis kiss passionately. Damien had always known that Alex was smitten by his Alpha but he didn't know that she felt the same. Actually, he was lying to himself. He knew the truth and he knew that Athena was equally smitten by Alexander. But they weren't mated to each other so it was ridiculous for them both to even indulge in the act of kissing and also, people were starting to talk. "I knew there was something going on between the both of them from the moment I saw them arguing." A lady said as she hid her face behind her fan. "Of course! No wonder he wasn't looking at any woman. He had his eyes on her." "Do you think they're mated?" "I have no idea. But I am sure as hell that King Athena doesn't have a mate. That's why she's King." "She probably got rejected,"

    Trevor took his time to look around her house. It was small and cozy, inviting. She was making coffee for him and the aroma wafted into his nose. He closed his eyes and inhaled. There was nowhere he wanted to be. The coronation party be damned. He took long strides towards her kitchen and watched as she made coffee for him. She looked really beautiful in her blue dress and her platinum blonde hair distinct to the beautiful females of Antarti. Sighing, he took a seat on the stool in her kitchen. When she turned, she was quite surprised to see him sitting there but she gave him a shy smile and gently placed his cup of coffee before him. "Do you like it sweetened and creamed?" She asked. Trevor was staring at her. He loved the fact that even after all he had done to her, she could still smile and blush. It made him feel better. "Of course, I do." "Bagels?" "Sure." Geneva went to her fridge and produced a transparent, glass jar of milk. She picked a pack

    The party was slowly coming to an end. Guests were already drunk and the party was beginning to look like a shit show. Daniel and Ciara had paid their respects to Athena who sat with Alex at the Terrazzo before going up to their room and now was the time for servants to actually start cleaning everywhere. Someone had made a mess on one of the tables. They had gotten drunk and had vomited on the table and it was an irritating sight to watch as guests went back into their room. Athena and Alexander were the only ones left and they both sat on the stone chair at the terrazzo. They had been together for almost an hour with Athena in Alex's arms as they both talked like they had known each other for years. Athena was more shocked by the whole thing than Alexander himself as she hadn't even expected to speak to him about herself and events surrounding her so well. But she was happy to be in his arms. She felt safe and loved and cared for. It was a good feeling. "So,

    Ciara was just entering her room after spending time with Daniel. She had forgotten her hand fan in the gallery and before she entered, she saw Athena and Alexander entering into a room while holding each other. A smile coated her face and when she shut the door, she hurried before bumping into the hard body of her husband. "What's wrong?" Daniel asked as he grabbed her by the shoulder. His expression was filled with worry and concern. He even pulled the door open and when he didn't see anyone, he shut the door only to meet Ciara who was laughing profusely. "What the hell? Is this a prank?" Daniel asked as he came to stand before her. Ciara shook her head and patted her chest to stop herself from laughing. "I'm sorry. I was just going to tell you something but you overreacted." "Overreacted?" Daniel asked. "You fucking screamed while coming in." Ciara threw her arm around him. She didn't like to get Daniel upset. "I'm sorry, honey. I squealed because I sa

    Daniel and Ciara had a really heated argument and it ended with Ciara bursting into tears and Daniel trying to beg her. She refused to sleep on the same bed with him. Instead, she took the floor and when Daniel saw that she wasn't going to go back to the bed until he left, he climbed down and lay beside her before she climbed up to the bed. Both couples were awake as their mind raced with thoughts. Ciara was seething, feeling ashamed and also feeling bad that she couldn't conceive. Daniel, five years ago, had assured her that even without them having a baby, he didn't care. She had believed him and she had ended her nights of crying to sleep. After that day, things had gone smoothly. Daniel never mentioned the idea of them having a baby and each time she tried to relapse, he would remind her that a child didn't matter as long as they were together. But time came and each time Ciara would visit his mother, she would always talk about children and how the hous

    They were both standing in the middle of the room that had been quickly arranged for him and Athena kept on holding his hand and watching his face like she was studying him. Alexander was tired and he needed to sleep but it seemed like Athena wasn't ready to let him go, yet. "Want me to walk you to your room?" Alex asked with a smile on his face but Athena shook her head and smiled. "I want to stay here for a bit." Alex shrugged. "Alright, if you want. I'll take off my clothes and freshen up. Make yourself comfortable." Athena walked to the window and pulled the thick drapes open. "I own this room so there's no need for you to tell me to feel comfortable or not." Alex gave her an amused look of shock before bursting into laughter. "Still cocky as ever?" "Of course," Athena smiled. Alex shook his head before stepping into his bathroom. While he took his bath, Athena took her time to put things in order so he could sleep comfortably. She had speciall

    While everyone slept, the rogues began their nightly duties. They were ten in number and two out of them carried an unconscious girl in their arms. When they got close to Antarti gates, she was dropped to the floor. Their leader sent one of them to check the gates while they planned on how they were going to break into the doors. The man they had sent to the gates ran back to report his findings. "Dimitri, there are CCTV cameras at the gate but I don't think they're in operation." The man, tall and bulky, turned to look at his messenger. "Are you sure?" The man nodded. "Positive." "Alright," Dimitri said and turned to the men who stood before him. His eyes darted to the unconscious girl. "I want you all to be really quiet when you're jumping through the gates. And as for the girl, I'll take care of her. She's very important to us." "But she's going to slow us down," One of the men bold enough to speak to him said. Only a glance was enough to sile

    On getting there, Damien and Daniel found the men patrolling around but doing nothing. Damien immediately jumped out of the car and hurried to where the men stood. "What the hell is going on?! Where is their leader?" The commander turned and bowed to Damien as his superior. "He escaped before we could catch him." Damien groaned in anger. He was the one they needed more than the men he had sent to attack Antarti. Daniel joined him a few moments later. As he looked around, he saw some men who lay on the floor dead. He walked to where Damien stood. "What's going on?" "Their leader escaped before he could be captured. He's the one we need," Daniel looked back at the men that had been caught. Three were dead but the rest were alive. "His men are here. We can get information from them." Damien didn't look like he was sure. "They're strogoids, a species of Rogues that are extremely loyal to their masters. They won't disclose any information till their ma

    "It's the men's combat game, Athena!" Damien said as he watched his Alpha strap herself with knives. She placed a diamondback knife in her boots and wedged a dagger on her arm. A pair tantos sat on the insides of her jacket and when she turned to face Damien, she smiled. "How do I look, Damien?" She asked. Damien shook his head and turned away from her. He hated the fact that she was excited for the combat. There was nothing to be excited about! She was literally putting herself in the face of danger and beckoning on it to come to her. "I don't know what to say, Athena. I do not feel comfortable with you participating in the men's combat category," Athena walked to the window and opened it. It was nearing evening and in about an hour's time or so, she would be out there, facing her opponent while everyone watched. If she was being honest with herself, she was really scared. Scared of the unknown. What if she got beaten to a pulp. What if she got paired with someo

    "What the hell is going on?" Kayla gasped as she heard the announcement the master of ceremony made. Kayla came to stand beside her. "Did the King just ask her to participate in the male category?" "Yes, he did," Kayla replied, sounding really shocked and worried. "Why would he do that?" "Because the King does what he does according to what his subject wants," A guy came and stood behind them as he spoke. Melodie gave him the stink eye. "She's not his subject. She's the King of Antarti!" The boy laughed like he was mocking her and Melodie glared at him like she wanted to kill him on the spot with her eyes. "You think. He's ruling the Lycan Confederate and can make any degree. Besides, she asked for it with her whole feminism shit," "And who the hell are you?" Kayla stepped forward in a defensive stance. "Oh," The boy touched his chest in a mock polite manner. "My name is Lawrence. I am the Prince of The Lycan Confederate," "And what are you doing here?"

    Athena stood alongside other contestants. Most of them were women and she frowned. Was this category just for women? Just then, she saw Eucaria standing at the other side of the line. The lady waved at Athena and scurried to stand beside her. "I had no idea you were participating," "Well, I am. Why is it just women here?" Eucaria shrugged. "This is a women's game. It's less brutal than combat and the rest," "That's bullshit," Athena said. The women around her gasped but she ignored them. "Why would they allow that?!" "There's actually no time for you to ask questions," A lady, dressed in combat outfit but looking like she was the referee with a whistle around her neck, came forward. She stared at Athena who matched her look without fear. "Once I blow the whistle, you all run towards the ropes hanging off those rocks on the other side of the amphitheater. Use it to lift your bodies off the ground and jump once you're about two meters in the air. Note that lit

    Kayla and Melodie were still waiting for Heyli to come back to them with good news when they saw her climbing one of the seats above. Kayla stepped forward and Melodie squinted her eyes as she watched Heyli take a seat beside Athena and Alex. She looked guilty and as Alex spoke to her, she only nodded. "Did she actually leave us here?" Melodie asked, suddenly feeling offended and betrayed by their friend. Kayla wasn't going to believe that was it. "I don't think so. Heyli won't do that to us. She's probably trying to negotiate things with Alex," "But she's seated there!" Melodie cried. Some people from the team looked at them and Kayla immediately apologized. "Let's just hope that's not the case," Melodie turned and looked at her. "Maybe that's the case." Kayla kept staring in Heyli's direction, hoping their friend would look at them and signal that she was going to return soon. But that wasn't going to happen because the master of the ceremony already stepp

    As early as five in the morning, the girls were awoken by the ringing of large bells. "I woke up at six back at home," Melodie said as she groaned and sat up. "I hate this time arrangement." Melodie noticed that Kayla wasn't in bed. Heyli had woken up for a few minutes before laying back down and falling asleep immediately. "Kayla?" "I'm bathing!" She called from the bathroom. Melodie climbed out of the bed and went to the bathroom door of bathroom. "Why didn't you wake us all up?" "I did. You both sleep like a hibernating snail. We have to prepare quickly, by the way. We're going to be manning the surroundings of the amphitheater. Handing weapons and change of clothes and help to the injured. I just hope nothing goes wrong," "What might that be?" Kayla's voice lowered. "A beast might be released. That would fight with one of the contestants. Someone told me a few warriors were killed the last time," Melodie's heart sank. "What?" "Yes," "Is this what I

    Heyli fell into his arms. She had no idea what was controlling her but she knew that his arms was where she wanted to be. Nowhere else but his arms. As she walked into his arms, he fully engulfed her in a hug and placed his chin on her glossy hair. "Did you use a new perfume?" Heyli drew away a bit. "Yes. How did you know?" Loki smiled and pulled her back in. "You love vanilla and that's your signature. But you're using something fruity," Heyli swallowed. "Well, Melodie suggested u used a different one and it was actually nice," "Because of Miguel?" Heyli shrugged. "I guess." "You guess? Or you did so because of him." "Do you want us to turn this into an argument?" "Not an argument. I'm mad." Heyli gave him an incredulous look. "Why?" "Because you are making yourself look good for another boy. It makes me want to go after him and rip his limbs apart so you don't find him attractive," Heyli gasped and burst into laughter but before she could sa

    One thing Heyli loved about this place was the fact that she didn't have to go through gates. The doors directly lead out to the streets and once she was hit with a cold gust of wind, she closed her eyes and sighed in relief. "The Lycaon Statue," She muttered under her breath. That was where Miguel said they were going to meet. Pulling up her gown, she climbed down the stairs and turned to the northern side of the road. The streets were void of people but amber lights flooded the roads and she was able to see under them. She actually didn't need any light to see but she needed to see Miguel. Somehow, she didn't trust her sense of vision to lead her to the right person. As she hurried down the road, she made sure to look back. Someone might be following her. No one was and she hastened her footsteps. She just hoped Hathaway had forgotten about her. As she turned her head to see if anyone was following after her, she bumped into a hard body and nearly fell on her kn

    The suit was lit by scented candle lights. Athena sat on the Chippendale chair that faced the windows and she stared up at the night skies. She had spent most of her day in this room. It was oddly comforting. The walls that were repainted by the sunset and the twilight. Then she lit the candles, ignoring the lights she could turn on through the switch. There was something about candle lit rooms that made her feel like she was floating. She stood to her feet and walked to her as dinner was almost near. She wanted to be early so she could mingle with the other ladies who had been smiling at her when she was taking a walk in the afternoon. This was to avoid being in close contact with Alexander. There was something he was hiding from her and if he didn't trust her enough to tell her, she wasn't sure she wanted to have anything to do with him. As for Damien and Loki, theirs was still loading. She didn't have time yet. She took out a pale green dress. It was one of her fa

    "He asked me to see him by eleven tonight so he could tell me the complete story of Lycaon," Heyli said as she pulled off her dress. Kayla wiggled her brows. "That story must be really interesting for you to actually sneak out by eleven," Heyli chuckled her chemise at Kayla who caught it in her hand and dumped it on the bed beside her. The girls were back in their room as soon as the clock struck seven. Heyli hadn't seen Loki throughout the day and neither had she seen Athena or Alexander. Melodie was just stepping out of the bathroom. Her body was wrapped in a towel. "Kayla's right. I can't believe you're going out by eleven just to see a guy you don't know," Heyli became defensive. "His name is Miguel," Kayla and Heyli exchanged looks before bursting into laughter. Heyli glared at them both but she said nothing. She wrapped a towel around her and went into the bathroom. She took her time there, opting for the soft scented shampoos for her skin and floral shampo
