Rise of Athena Chapter 131
"Shh," Alex said calmly. His voice had thinned to a whisper and his fingers had successfully pushed her coat open that her milky skin showed. He seeped in a breath. "You're so beautiful, Athena." Alex whispered. Athena was still throughout the whole ordeal. She knew she should push him away and call him selfish for trying to make a sick woman fall for his temptations but at the same time, she didn't want him to stop. She wanted him to continue what he was doing. Her skin tingled and she felt shivers run down her spine. How could one man make her feel a thousand emotions at the same time? Involuntarily, her eyes closed and she leaned back. Alex's hand cupped the side of her neck and brought her cheek to his lip so that his breath fanned against her cheek. The feeling was out of this world but ephemeral... He withdrew and shook his head like he was clearing a spell off his head. "I'm so sorry, Athena," Alex said and moved away from her. He began to stac

Alex sat in the sun room all night. He was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't hear someone take a seat beside him. "You didn't join us for dinner," Alex turned to look at Daniel. "Yes, I didn't. Wasn't feeling really hungry." "Damien told me about Athena's health. Said you were with her the whole time," "Yes, I was." "Is she getting any better?" "Before I left, she was asleep but I don't know about now. Haven't gone back to her room since then." "You can go now, though. She's awake because she sent someone to hand over the envelope to Heyli." "That's great news," Alex said but he didn't stand on his feet. Infact, he looked really hesitant. "I hope she gets better before tomorrow's evening." Daniel frowned and looked at his Alpha. This wasn't him. He was looking quite unmoved by the whole conversation and didn't even show any interest in going to see Athena. "What's up? Is anything wrong?" Alex sighed and rubbed his chin. His eyes

"Wh— what are you trying to do, Athena?" Alex stuttered as he felt his breath quicken. Seeing Athena this way, he thought maybe he might be in a trance. But he wasn't. Athena was really standing there and waiting for him to come to her. "Come over here," She muttered under her breath. Alex, slowly clouded by desire nodded and walked towards where she stood. He stopped before her and contemplated for a bit but her hand reached out and pulled him towards her. "Athena, are you okay?" Athena frowned. "What do you mean by this question?" Alex shrugged, still trying to rein his desires in. "It's just, you're never this way. You're more of a rigid person and seeing you like this is quite strange. That's why I'm kind of taking my time." Athena was already slightly upset so she nodded and turned away. She bent over and picked up her coat. Alex didn't miss the sight of her milky thighs and it made his groin tighten. Slapping a hand over his forehead, he decided tha

Today was going to be either fun or a disaster, Heyli thought as she jogged towards the perimeter, hoping that she would be welcomed warmly. From where she was, she could see a bunch of junior warriors training and sitting around so she thought that maybe they hadn't started after all. On getting there, she stopped jogging and waited to catch her breath. When she already took in a bit of air, she began walking towards the perimeter. Someone bumped into her and ran past her and Heyli nearly fell. "Hey!" Heyli called out but the person was gone before she could make any other statement. Sighing, she shook her head as she watched the girl who had bumped into her take a seat on the concrete slab and look at her with a wicked, knowing look. "She did it on purpose," Heyli muttered. The girl who had hit her wasn't the only one who was staring at her. As she entered the perimeter, she noticed that other people around were also staring at her and talking with each other in whi
Rise of Athena Chapter 135
Athena was awake early. She took her bath, cleansed her body and dressed up regally. Today was her first appearance after her coronation party and she needed to look her best. He instructed one of her servants to get Damien for her. "You look really well, Athena," Damien said with a smile. Athena nodded and pulled her leg away once her maid was done fixing the strap of her shoe. "Yes, I am. The past two days have been hectic for me." "I know. And you got the rest you deserve." Damien said. "Well, I have come with a few updates from the days you've been absent." Athena nodded and looked up at him. "I'm listening." "Well, the Lycan Confederate sent a letter to us. The letter contained the test results from the specimen they took and also added notes. I left it in your study yesterday as I didn't want yuh to be disturbed. And about the execution, people are already talking about it and wondering if you're going to execute them or let them go scott free." Athe

"What you mean is that we won't be going home anytime soon?"Ciara asked as she put on the last dress she had in her trunk. She hadn't planned on staying here for this long so she didn't bring enough clothes. She remembered how Daniel told her that she was taking so much on their way here. Who knew that they were going to stay for much longer? Daniel nodded. "Yes, we are. Honey, you should understand why we're staying for much longer." Ciara nodded. "I do. But all of my dresses have been worn and I can't wear them again." "That isn't a problem. I'd get one of the servants to wash them." Daniel said and stood on his feet. "I miss Blue moon," Ciara suddenly said and flopped into bed. "I miss our room and how comfortable I am there." "Aren't you comfortable here?" Daniel sighed and asked. "Not as comfortable as I am in Blue moon. I'm sure you feel the same way, too," Daniel shrugged. "I've never really given it a thought. But you know we'd go back so

Heyli stood in the middle of the perimeter and tried not to cave in as everyone stared at her with curiosity. The whispers were still heard and the slight giggles from girls. She even got glared at by a dark haired stud who shouldn't have been one. "Everyone, this is Heyli..." Harrison turned to look at Heyli. "What's your surname?" "Kellogg," Heyli completed. There was a disappointed look on everyone's faces and even Harrison gave her an incredulous look. "Thought you were related to King Athena." Heyli frowned. She wasn't ready to be embarrassed on her first day of being here. She turned to face everyone. "What makes y'all think that I am in any way related to the King? I just appear out of nowhere and in a few days, you all think I am in anyway related to her. Absolutely sensible." "We didn't believe you were royalty at first. It took a lot of convincing from Harrison for us to believe," Someone, a boy from the group of warriors said and turned to his
Rise of Athena Chapter 138
Athena stood before her subjects. Most of them were commoners and a few of them were among the elites. They all stood before the King in the hall as they wondered why they weren't outside, in front of the field where offenders were commonly executed. She was unsmiling and as soon as she cleared her throat, everyone focused their attention on her. "I understand that you all are talking about the execution and all. Why am I not outside addressing you all before the offender. That's because I have decided that he will not be killed anytime soon," Damien looked at Athena in surprise and the others began to talk in whispers about how ridiculous it was to extend the life of an offender but Athena didn't care. Knowing that her reasons were valid, she waited till the murmur had died down. "My King, why would you say such a thing? He is to be killed before the full moon!" Damien said. Athena turned to look at him with a smile on her face. "Be patient and listen to w

"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?"
Rise of Athena Chapter 228
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
Rise of Athena Chapter 227
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
Rise of Athena Chapter 225
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
Rise of Athena Chapter 224
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
Rise of Athena Chapter 223
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
