Rise of Athena Chapter 58
"Alex being here with us is going to be really stressful." Ian complained. Alex's guards were throwing in their luggages into a bullion van as they got ready to leave for Antarti. It was quite a distance and was going to take them about six hours before they got to Antarti. Ciara chuckled. "Why?" Ian stopped what he was doing and gave Ciara an incredulous look. "You haven't met Alex in love. He's a pain in the butt." "How do you know that? Alex has only been in love once." Ian shook his head. "That's not true. He had this intense feelings for this girl when we were younger." "For real? How was it?" "It was short lived. The girl was from another pack and her father who was the Alpha had come to visit his father. They stayed for a few months because her father was running from a set of people that wanted to kill him." "Wow, that's crazy. Who knew Alex was capable of falling in love?" "He's worse than an obsessed person. It can be draining at times."

Athena was a bit disappointed. She had expected to see Alex with these people but they weren't even the Alpha and the Luna! She made sure not to show her disappointment as she led them into the palace. They got to the hallway and the woman stopped and smiled at Athena. She was older. "We didn't get to introduce ourselves, your highness." She said, Her companion also stopped walking. Athena smiled. "Of course." "My name is Cecilia Vega and this is my husband, Daniel Vega. We are both the Alpha's special advisers, my husband being the Beta." "As you all know, my name is Athena, daughter of the great Alpha Caden. You both are warmly welcome." Cecilia took her hand and shook it. "I am so proud of you. Never has it been heard that a woman is ruling a pack. You have broken that embargo." "Of course, I have. It is not an easy task." Permit me to interrupt, Daniel jutted in. Both women turned to look at him. "I have not heard of you choosing a mate. It is a

Alexander was just getting used to his room. This room was below par and it smells musty. The first thing he did as soon as he entered the room was search for any fragrance to freshen the air of the room. He could smell different body scents from people who had used this room a long time and it was quite suffocating. For a brief moment, he regretted ever thinking about coming to this inn. He would have gone to the palace instead. But he was avoiding Athena and he wanted to surprise everyone. The price one had to pay for a big surprise. Alexander didn't find any air freshener around so he made a mental note to go down and tell the porter about it. The bed he was to lay on was stiff and very narrow. It wouldn't cover his body frame and his feet were definitely going to dangle off the bed. He was sacrificing his comfort for this. Well, it was only going to be for three days and he would be gone. Sighing, he pushed his luggages into the tiny wardrobe before

The day had finally arrived. The whole town was bustling with activities and so was the temple. Guests left their rooms and went back into it after the large breakfast and some of them milled about in the hall while talking about different things. They were all dressed up for the service at the temple and they all waited a bit for their vehicles to be arranged before going into their various cars. Daniel and Ciara were walking hand in hand. Ciara was dressed in a blue taffeta gown that screamed royalty. As they walked out of the palace, they stylishly checked around to see if Athena was anywhere in sight. "Do you think it's okay for her to be addressed as King? I find it really weird that she'd be called King. I mean, what's wrong in being called a Queen?" Daniel asked and got a look from the porter standing by the door. Ciara sighed. "Can you all let the young woman do whatever she wants to do? She's the ruling one and can make any decision she wants. She can d

Alexander was already set and he was planning on going discreetly to the temple so he would be unrecognizable. Last night was quite stressful for him as he had gone around the whole of Antarti to stamp talismans at different points that were an opening into the spirit realm and he just hoped no one had seen him. Once he was done dressing up, he checked himself in the mirror. He had worn a cloak with a high collar to conceal his face from being seen or recognisable as he was not ready to show his face yet. He had planned on doing that the next day. As he was about to step out of his room, he bumped into the same old woman from yesterday. She was also dressed like she was prepared for some party or the sorts. "Out to snatch the young ladies, are you?" She said while wiggling her brows. Alexander gave her a fake smile. He wasn't interested in any conversation with her but he had to indulge for a few moments. "Nah, not really. I already have a mate." "Ouh, is th

An ancient carriage, which had been cleaned up, polished and repainted throttled through the street and people walking by stopped to gaze at the grandiose carriage in awe. "I told you that a limo would be fine. Why did I even agree to this nonsense?" Athena complained. She hated that they had to do this. Damien, who was seated beside her, shrugged. As the carriage moved, they were juggled continuously. He initially hadn't been interested in this idea as it had been brought up by the elders as a way to preserve the old tradition. Athena, who had been absent at the meeting due to preparations, had been informed by Damien after the meeting that the usage of the old carriage had been proposed to transport her to the temple. Out of curiosity, she had requested to see the so-called carriage and when it had been shown to her, she turned down the proposal. The elders had found a way to make her not disagree with it. They had used her absence in the meeting against her, tell

Ciara, who had been anticipating the dinner, whined. She had promised the women she had been speaking with a few moments ago that she would be sitting with them at the dinner table. "But I told these women I'd be joining them after the service. I already did." Alexander wasn't even listening to her. He began to walk out of the temple and the couple followed after him. Ciara made sure to ignore her husband as they walked out of the nearly empty temple. "Where's the car?" Alexander asked amidst the noise from the crowd of people who were watching the carriage leave the temple gates. "The first line!" Daniel called out. Alexander nodded and turned to look at the carriage and as it passed by him, his eyes caught Athena's and he drew in a sharp breath and turned away immediately. He was sure that Athena had seen him because her eyes widened and she craned her neck. On the other hand, Athena, while the foot men hurried the horse out of the temple gates, stared

Athena knew she had seen someone familiar as the carriage drove her out of the temple. The familiar blue eyes, chiseled and clean shaven jaw and the stance. It had to be him. Maybe it wasn't him. Maybe it was someone else who looked like him or a spirit. They had just arrived at the palace and once they had been assisted out of the carriage, Damien went over to the guards to give them instructions. As for Athena, she proceeded into the palace with two of her special guards flanking her. This had been done to protect her from any sort of attacker as these were delicate times. "I want you all to be alert. Remember the man who came here early this morning?" They all nodded. "I don't know if he's telling the truth or if he's a spy or if he's using this as a sort of distraction. I just want you all to be alert, okay?" "Yes, sir." They chorused. Damien made sure to look around for any suspicious activities before proceeding into the palace. The table was al

"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
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
