Rise of Athena Chapter 147
The next morning was filled with activities. It was a Saturday and somehow, the whole world had set it aside for cleaning their homes. Heyli was still asleep by eight and when she knocked on her door, she jumped fast and stared at the clock in horror. As she flung her duvet to the side, she jumped out of her bed and hurried to the bathroom when she heard another knock on the door. She made a beeline for her door, hoping it wasn't someone from the warrior team. Well, no one knew her well enough to come find her here so she was guessing it might be Ciara. But when she opened the door, she was met with stormy gray eyes. "I thought you had been kidnapped for something. Why aren't you at the perimeter?" "Loki," Heyli whispered. She turned her head to look at herself in the mirror. Her eyes widened in horror when a look-alike stared back at her, looking like she had combed her hair with the horns of a reindeer. She needed to be away from him as fast as she could. "
Rise of Athena Chapter 148
As Heyli walked into the perimeter alongside Loki, she noticed that all eyes were on them, most especially hers and remembering her conversation with the girls from last night, she knew that this would bring a lot of trouble for her. Kayla was seated on the concrete platform with Nina by her side and they were both watching her. She left Loki’s side immediately and went to meet Kayla. "Hey, Kayla," she greeted as she took a seat beside them. "I see you're setting yourself up for some drama," Kayla laughed as she gestured to Loki who stood speaking with Harrison. Heyli sighed and closed her eyes. "How am I going to say this?" "How it's supposed to be said, Kayla," Nina replied. "Uhm, Loki is my guardian," Heyli blurted out. "He's your what?" Three of the girls turned to see Melodie standing behind them. She was wearing a brightly colored ribbon on her hair and it made her look less of a warrior. "Guardian," Heyli said and immediately began t
Rise of Athena Chapter 149
Athena was known by everyone to be in her study at exactly eight o'clock but by nine this morning, she was writhing in between sheets as Alex's tongue played with her inner thighs. She felt her toes curl and her fingers grab the sheet for dear life. Never had she imagined that this could take her to different dimensions in a few minutes. Alex was doing a good job and he lapped at her juices for dear life. Her eyes were closed and her moans filled the room. She was sure that Damian or one of her servants would have found her room empty. But that wasn't the case right now. Athena's personal maid was the first person to knock on her door and when her King didn't give a reply, she guessed Athena was still asleep. She came back some twenty minutes later and knocked again. There was no answer. After doing this repeatedly, she got worried and went to inform Damien who immediately followed her and began to knock on her door. When no reply came, they had no option than t

Athena pushed past him as she walked back into her room. "It's none of your business, Damien. My whereabouts shouldn't concern you," Damien hissed. "But your safety is my concern," "To hell with that, Damien. Can I have breathing space around you?" Athena said and turned to look at him. She was upset right now. Someone scolding her wasn't something she wanted to hear from him. "I'm sorry," He whispered. Though he didn't mean it. Athena ignored his apology. "What do you want?" "There's a meeting this morning. In regards to the Royal Hunting Ceremony next month," "What about it?" "We're to make preparations. It's something that should be talked about. And your presence is highly needed in the drawing room," "What time is it?" "Eleven," Damien said and looked at the wall clock. "It's already ten o'clock." "I'll be there by eleven forty five. I have to get ready and also have breakfast," Athena said as she sat and waited for her maid to come
Rise of Athena Chapter 151
Training today was worse than yesterday and Heyli could tell by the burning of her thighs. They ran around the perimeter for close to two hours and anyone who dropped would have their names at the bottom of the scoreboard until someone replaced them. About four people had fallen and Heyli felt like she would be the next. "I'm so tired, Kay," Heyli huffed out as she jogged with the last of her strength. "Is this how you guys run?" Kayla, who was running directly in front of Heyli, turned for a bit to look at Heyli's sweaty face. "When it's Laura? Yes. I told you she's really mean," Heyli was so busy listening to Kayla that she didn't see the stone before her. Her feet hit the stone and she fell to the ground with a grunt. "You're out, Heyli!" The unmistakably recognizable voice belonging to Laura was heard. Heyli staggered to her feet and hissed in annoyance before leaving the line and going to take a seat on the stone chair at the far end of the perimet
Rise of Athena Chapter 152
Throughout the day, Athena didn't pay as much attention as she used to. Something else was in her mind. Someone, rather. After the meeting, she had immediately left the hall to the privacy of her study. She made sure to dish out instructions to Damien. One that would keep him away from her office from the time being as she fantasized about Alex touching her. Like he had said, she couldn't stop thinking about him. He had left an impression on her. One she couldn't quite defeat. As soon as she got into the confines of her office, she quickly shut the door and locked it. Then she went to her windows and pulled the curtains, making everywhere a lot dimmer save for the light pouring out from the lamp on her table. She decided that the couch would be the best place for her so she went there, lay down and closed her eyes as she fantasized about Alex touching her. Her breath became faster as she shut her eyes and delved into the memories of last night. She could fe

"You know you can put me down, Loki. Don't you?" Heyli said as they got to the palace gates. Loki didn't give her an answer. Instead, he spoke with one of the guards who opened the gates for them. Heyli huffed. She was starting to get uncomfortable now as they passed people who gave the both of them strange stares. "In no time, rumors about you and I being an item would spread around the kingdom. I'm new here, Loki. For the sake of my reputation, drop me." This actually incited a laugh from Loki but he did not drop her even when she tried to struggle to be free. "Nothing matters. Reputations, rumors and all that nonsense. It's just there to keep things interesting," Loki was just stepping into the garden that led to the palace when Heyli said something that had him turning his head to give her a confused look. "Bianca is going to have my head. She'd probably start bullying me," "Bianca?" "Yes, Bianca. I'm sure your ears are perfectly functional,"
Rise of Athena Chapter 154
Heyli quietly shut the door to her sister-to-be's study. The idea of the adoption still weirded her out as she had never heard of someone being adopted to be a sister. It was strange. But still, she didn't dispute. Maybe the Lycans did this. King Athena was seated on one of the leather couches in the room and she leaned over to the coffee table before her to pick a glass cup in which she poured in an apple cider. She raised her hand and gestured to Heyli to take it from her. Heyli had never tried alcohol apart from the time she had taken a painful gulp from her father's cup of ale. It had tasted terrible and she had actually read about it to learn about different alcohol variants. She knew that apple cider was made out of fermented apples and she was curious to know how it'd taste so she took it from Athena's hand. Athena poured herself another drink before settling back into her chair. She took a sip from her glass. "Have a seat, Heyli. Stop standing there lik

"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

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
Rise of Athena Chapter 226
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
