Rise of Athena Chapter 160
"Am I really going to climb this till I actually break my legs? I've been doing this for the past thirty minutes!" Athena complained. "If that's what's going to kill you at the ceremony, we can just do climbing for tonight," Athena's left foot was hanging in the air and the only source of her support were both of her hands grabbing onto the jagged side of the rock and one foot on the rock's foothold. "It's strenuous," "It wouldn't have been if you could shape shift properly. I use my claws to climb and it's really easy," Athena pushed herself up with her right foot and balanced her left foot on the nearest foothold. She was breathing heavily by now. "Then why are you stressing me out?! I could easily do that if you teach me how to shape shift." "I chose the hard way." "My muscles are burning, Alexander," Athena cried as she pushed herself up again. She was already close to the top of the rock but she could feel the rough edges of the rock pierce the flesh o

About two hours later, athena decided that they were done. she fell to the ground while breathing heavily and glaring at alex who kept laughing at her. "fuck you, alex." "you've been saying that all night. you're giving me a signal, aren't you?" alex said as he dropped on the floor beside her. athena punched his arm and he yelped. "ow! you punch real hard," athena laughed. "i never said i was weak. the only thing i can't do is climb and i'm getting good at it," "well, after tomorrow and the next, we'd focus on making you shape shift," to that, athena blew out a deep breath. "i can't wait," she said, her voice laced with sarcasm. alex stood his feet and stretched his hand down to her. "here, we have to go now. we're done and it's almost three o'clock. i'm sure you'd be craving your beauty sleep," athena took his hand and he pulled her up. she fell against his chest and groaned in tiredness. "why are you so comfy?" alex let her rest her head on his chest
Rise of Athena Chapter 162
Heyli woke up with a start. She found someone staring down at her and she screamed, scrambling for the other side of the bed. She had no idea that she had gotten to the edge of the bed and she fell to the ground with a thump. "Hmph!" "Are you okay?" "Yeah, I'm fine," Heyli said and came back up. She smiled and gave Alex a thumbs up. "I was shocked to see you staring down at me so I freaked out." Alex nodded. "I'm sorry if I scared you. Well, I didn't barge into your room. That would have been really disrespectful of me," Then he gestured to Athena who stepped forward. "She suggested that I healed you so you could continue training," Slowly, I move forward. Athena is dressed in a very pale blue dress. She looks unreal. With her hair styled and black obsidian eyes bright. She has minimal make up on and the cherry red lipstick on her lips makes her look like some princess out of a book. Her skin is the color of milk and her nose, really sharp. Heyli feels h
Rise of Athena Chapter 163
As Heyli got dressed for training, she could think about what Athena's decision would be. As it stood now, she was getting ready to be turned down and thrown out of the palace. Maybe today would be her last day here and she had to let everyone know, including Loki whom she greatly disliked. Sighing, she put on her boots and tied the lace before standing in front of her vanity table and spritzing her perfume. She reveled in the fragrance, knowing that this would likely be the last time she'd use it. And also, she was going to make sure she returned really late. Late enough for everyone to be asleep so Athena could break the news to her. As she left her room, one of the maids standing by her door handed her a backpack. It looked new. She had never had one like this in the past. What if this was the bag she'd be leaving with? Her heart was heavy and she didn't dare open it. She slung it over her back and hurried down the steps. As she walked to the main entrance of

"You know you can soften up a bit to Heyli, right?" Asked as he watched Athena put on her dress. "You don't always have to scare her," "I'm not scaring anyone and I have softened a bit to her. Wasn't I the one who convinced you to go heal her?" "You only did that because you wanted her to participate in the games today so she can gain more experience," Athena turned to look at him. She narrowed her eyes. "Why are you even here, watching me dress up? You should be in your room getting dressed up yourself." "Need glasses?" "What do you mean?" Athena frowned. She tied the strings of rope to the side of her body, causing the corset she was wearing to snatch her waist. "I'm dressed up already. You're the one taking my time," Alex said. "Go find something else to do, then." "I love watching you dress up. I don't think there's anything else for me to do," Sighing, Athena returned to putting on her dress. She had dismissed her maids today and asked t
Rise of Athena Chapter 165
Sighing, Heyli straightened fully. Loki was frowning like he didn't like the fact that she was here, eavesdropping on his conversation. "What? I was here before you guys came with your drama or whatever!" Heyli immediately defended. Loki facepalm. "That's not why I'm upset at you n what the fuck are you doing here? I've been looking everywhere for you," Heyli slowly picked up her bag. She remembered the reason why she had run to this place and there was no one she could tell it apart from Ciara or Alex or Daniel or Athena (Well, hers was going to be a hard one). "Well, you can see me here. What's it?" "King Athena has been asking after you. She wanted to see you on the field." "Really?" Heyli asked with wide eyes. "Yes, really. Your friends and I have been searching around for you!" "Is it that important?" Heyli asked. "I have no idea. All I know is that she's looking for you. What the fuck are you doing here?" He asked again. Heyli shr

"Where's Loki? I haven't seen him since I asked him to go get Heyli for me," Athena whispered to Alex who sat beside her on one of the special seats. Alex was watching the warrior teams warm up when she spoke to him. He shrugged. "I have no idea. This area is safe, isn't it?" "It is. But who knows what might happen with Heyli? Remember I appointed Loki to her so she can be protected from herself and from harming others when she shifts unexpectedly." "Full moon isn't until next week," Alex replies. "Loki knows what to do. I hope you told him everything about Heyli?" Athena nodded "of course. I did. I also made him swear not to tell anyone." "That's good. She's safe. I feel like they're together. Wherever they are, she's definitely safe. I trust Loki," "I don't trust him with her," Athena countered. Alexander whipped his head to look at her in confusion. "What do you mean? You think she's in danger with him?" Athena shrugged. "Not per se." "Then

The games finally started after the ring of a large bell. Everyone began cheering including Athena. She was also excited to see how it'd turn out even though she knew she was never going to admit that truth to Alexander. Firstly, the amateur team came and displayed the tricks they had learnt. A young girl blew out fire from her mouth and everyone cheered then a younger boy came up to do stunts that amazed everyone, Alex included. "How the hell did he do that?!" "He's really amazing," Athena said laughing. Someone came onto the podium to speak before the begining of the main event. They began by thanking everyone for participating in the games and also thanked the guests before specially thanking the Royal family for appearing today. Then the games started. Athena still hadn't seen Heyli or Loki and she was starting to get really worried. Heyli was supposed to participate in one of the games with the junior team and she had assigned Loki to her to protect he

"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
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
