Rise of Athena Chapter 186
Heyli woke up the next morning with intense body pain. She began to groan as she tried to turn herself on the bed. Her upper body was so stiff and she could barely raise her arms. Her neck hurt and her arms felt like a bulldozer had ran over it. She relaxed back on the bed and opened her eyes. She was in her room and for a moment, she felt her heart lunge but then, she relaxed. If they wanted her dead, they would have done it by now. They were probably going to execute her but for now, she was alive and that was all that mattered. But how the hell was she going to stand up from here! She tried again. She lifted her right arm a few centimeters above the bed and felt her joints crack. She groaned and lifted the other arm which gave off the same sound. She knew she wouldn't be able to sit up so she painfully rolled to the other side of the bed and dropped one leg down. Still painful but she could endure this one. Her arms were starting to loosen so sh
Rise of Athena Chapter 187
Athena was awake early and she sat in the drawing room, having a cup of tea. Damien was seated before her. "How is the speech going to go?" He asked as he looked at her intently. "I already wrote something. You can read through it," Athena said and handed the paper over to him. Damien took it from her and looked down at the paper. He raised his brows. "This sounds good but quite controversial. We have to convince them, not force it on them," Athena shook her head and gently placed her teacup on the saucer. "Do they look like they can be convinced? A whole pack who was terrorized by a pack of Kanimes? It'll be quite hard for them to be convinced that she's harmless. We have to come up with something they would agree to. " Athena took the paper from his hand and placed it on the table. "If they're going to hear me out, then they will understand. But if they will not, then they'll have to take it the hard way," "Your majesty," Damien said looking really wor
Rise of Athena Chapter 188
Nina, Melodie and Kayla trooped in along with othet pack members of Antarti. They were all here to listen to what the King had to say. "Can you guess what she's going to say to us?" Melodie asked Nina as she snaked her arm around Nina's. "It's obvious why she wants to address us after what happened yesterday," Nina said. "I want to know if Heyli's fine. I'm worried about her. After yesterday, I really wanted to see her but she didn't return. Are you sure she's still alive? Loki must've killed her," Melodie said in a panicked tone. "Shut the hell up. You talk too much," Kayla said in annoyance. "I just want to know if she's safe. That's all," Nina turned to face Nina and grabbed her by the arm. "You must never. I mean, never talk to her. She's not our friend. She lied to us about her identity. I'm sure there's a lot more we don't know. A true friend would let us know who she really is. " Melodie frowned. She turned to Kayla who acted line she didn't
Rise of Athena Chapter 189
Athena made sure she touched every topic she had planned on doing. There was a bit of an uproar when she mentioned that Heyli would continue training with the junior team. Someone had yelled about how dangerous it was and she had totally ignored them and also Damien who was looking at her to clarify things. "I don't have to clarify things. If they don't trust me enough to assure them safety, then they should live in fear." After the announcement, Athena wished the people good luck and reminded them of the Royal Hunting Ceremony that would be commencing in about a month's time. She left the porch, not minding if people were speaking openly about how much of a dictator she was. She found Heyli standing in the room that led to the porch and at the door stood Loki. His arms were folded before him. She walked towards Heyli. "Heyli, are you good? Loki told me about your situation and I immediately sent a chiropractor to you," "I've always been a weapon
Rise of Athena Chapter 190
"Are you sure you want to face them now?" Loki asked. "You can always go there another time, when it has all died down," Heyli was already dressed up in dark ripped jeans and a hoodie to cover her face. That was to protect her from being seen by people. She needed to stay away from the public eye as much as possible. "I want to go today. I really need to see them. I've been lying to them since I knew them and it wouldn't be funny or nice if I left them hanging," Loki nods. "If that's what you want. You'll have to be careful though. So no one sees you," Heyli frowned. "I thought we were going together?" Loki laughed. "Everyone knows I'm your guardian. They're not stupid. When they see me walking with anyone, they automatically think you're the one." Heyli, who had been feeling confident, was suddenly nervous. She thought he was going to go with her but now that he wasn't, she wasn't sure she was going to do it. "I can't." "You can," Loki said. He sou
Rise of Athena Chapter 191
Heyli went fully into freak out mode. She pulled back the hoodie to cover her face but it was already too late. Kayla's eyes widened in horror and when Melodie tried to pull her away, Harrison took a hold of Heyli's arm. Her hoodie was pulled back down. Now, she was standing before everyone and they were all looking at her. "Do you think you can escape us? Why are you hiding from us, huh?" Harrison said as he stared her down. Heyli had never seen him act this rude. She had always made sure to stay far away from him but today, he was being downright disrespectful. "I am not hiding from anyone," Heyli said with the tiny bit of confidence she had mustered up. Harrison turned back to look at his boys and they all laughed. "Kanime, huh?" Kayla stepped forward and drew Heyli behind her. "I thought I warned you to stay out of my business?" "Heyli isn't your business. You're your own business," Harrison said as he looked at her in disdain. Melodie stepped up. "She's our business
Rise of Athena Chapter 192
"Are you guys mad at me?" "Not at all," Kayla replied as she wiped a napkin over her mouth. Heyli had decided to take them for a treat to one of the restaurants in town. Athena gave her allowance every week and it was more than enough. She decided to take Melodie and Kayla to get food and drinks. "But Nina is mad at you," Melodie replied. She forked a chunk of spicy potato into her mouth and chewed. "Her brother was murdered by a Kanime. He was a warrior in the senior team that year there was a Kanime attack. He was killed while trying to save everyone's life." "I don't think that's enough reason for her to suddenly be angry at Heyli. She isn't one of the Kanimes that attack and her story is different from theirs. She never meant harm," Kayla countered. "I think that's enough reason," Melodie disagreed. "We just have to let her know that Heyli means no harm. Her brother was killed by an evil person," "But Heyli isn't!" Kayla exclaimed. "She was once a human running away from
Rise of Athena Chapter 193
Harrison was on his knees pleading for his life. Gianni had already been taken to the dungeon to be left there for the day he would be questioned. Athena was seated on her throne now and Alex sat on one of the seats that lined the large room. Two guards stood behind Harrison while Loki stood behind Alex's seat. "You have been impeached from your position as the leader of the junior team and you will be demoted back to the amateur team and watched. If you make any improvement in behavior, you'll be given a chance to return to your team. But, someone else, someone worthy of the position of a leader would be appointed as the new leader of the junior team." Harrison was horrified. Go back to the amateur team? He stayed there till he was sixteen before he was then moved to the junior team along with his friends. He couldn't imagine himself with the younger team members. It was going to be greatly embarrassing. That bitch, Heyli. He was going to make sure she paid back for this she d

Rise of Athena Chapter 230
"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
Rise of Athena Chapter 229
"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
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
Rise of Athena Chapter 222
"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
