Rise of Athena Chapter 88
"You heard me right, Alexander," Ciara said as she craned her neck to see the people who were ushered to the high table. Alex shook his head and stepped back. "I am not down for this. I told you guys that I don't want to be seen. " Ciara gave Alex a look. "You are running away from Athena?" Alex shrugged. "Not per se. I just don't want to be seen by her." "Why?" Daniel asked. Alex shrugged. "I have no idea. Maybe because I don't want to?" Ciara sighed and retracted her arm from her husband's. She took a few steps towards Alex who stood a few meters away from them. "Look, I understand that she hurt you by rejecting you. I would go crazy. But you're fine, Alex. If she doesn't want you, it's fine! See, she needs to see that you're thriving without her. Have fun tonight." "It's hard." Alex said looking genuinely distressed. "I've never seen Alex this way. It's shocking." Daniel said and chuckled. Alex was listening to all that Ciara was saying

Alex was just reading through the order of the ceremony when Ciara stood to her feet and left. Alex hadn't seen her but Daniel had and he shrugged before going back to listening to the names being called by the master of the ceremony. When Ciara returned, she returned with a beautiful young lady whom Alex recognized to be among the ladies who had been ogling at him. He gave Ciara a glare but she ignored him, took her seat and began talking with her husband. Alex sighed. He was left with no option than to speak with her. "Hi." The lady greeted in a sultry voice. She flicked her blond hair behind her ear and smiled at him. Her blue eyes were filled with nothing but excitement. Alex was going to entertain her. "Hi," Alex said and nodded at her before standing on his feet and pulling out a seat for her. She took a seat and ran her gloved fingers down his arm that was exposed because he rolled his shirt up. Alex had never felt so repulsive by anyone's touch but he

The moment she saw him, she felt her blood freeze. She hadn't recognized him at first till she looked deep. He had changed a lot. He was not dressed in tattered, washed clothing and that was when she realized that Daniel and Ciara were indeed hiding him away from her. His hair had been styled to fall around his face and his back. His tuxedo was the cleanest of all she had seen and his eyes, those blue eyes that set her soul on fire were staring at her. She had quickly turned her face away to avoid being seen but deep down, she felt his eyes burning into her skin. She felt his eyes follow her as she was led to her throne and when she took her seat, she saw a lady with him for the first time. She had never seen this woman before and she stood beside Alex. His date? Nor until he pulled out her seat for her did she understand what was going on. Indeed, he had come to her party with another woman. Sighing, she decided that she wasn't going to overthink this. S

"Who's that lady?" Athena asked Damien. Damien shrugged. "I have no idea who she is." "Find out who she is right now." Few moments ago, when she had been unable to hold herself back, she thought sending out one of her men to call Alex would do the job. But he seemed to be immune to her now. Because, why the hell would he send her guard back with words about how he wasn't interested in seeing her? It was that lady sitting beside him. All she needed right now was patience. Damien sent someone to do the finding and when the said person returned, there was information. "My King, she's the daughter of Boaz, the Jewish man living close to the borders."Damien said. Athena's eyes were trained on the young woman. She was laughing at something Alex said and even bent towards him to whisper into his ears. This made Athena grow angry. "I want her out of this place with immediate effect." She gritted out. Damien, who had been speaking with one of Athena's we

"Geneva!" Alex called as he hurried after her. Her dress flew as she hurried down the dark, empty streets. When she heard his voice, she slowed down and turned. Alex was no longer looking at a woman who masked her pain with fake happiness. All he could see right now was a woman with so much pain and hurt. Her eyes were bloodshot; she had been crying. "You came after me," She whispered. "You shouldn't have." Alex, when he finally was standing before her, sighed. "I had to. Athena can be really mean sometimes." "Athena? You really call the Queen by her name?" Geneva asked as her eyes were filled with wonder. Alex chuckled and took her hand. "Come sit with me." Geneva looked unsure but with a smile from Alex, she felt like she could trust him no matter what. So she followed him. There was a stone seat built close to the tall walls of the palace. There, guards could sit down each time they needed to rest. That was where Alex led her. He helped her take a

By the time Alex returned, the party was in full swing. A lot of people were dancing while some talked loudly over drinks and food. Alex entered the hall and searched around for Daniel and Ciara and he found them by the fountain eating from a plate. They seemed to be having a conversation that had Ciara laughing and when Alex got to where they stood, she stopped laughing and looked at him. "Heyy," She drawled. "You're back. I thought you went home with her?" "I actually did," Alex said and sighed. "Actually, her mate was around. He's back to his senses," Daniel was suddenly interested. "What do you mean he came back to his senses?" "He was bewitched by his ex wife. She cast a hoax on him and that made him see Geneva as someone else apart from his mate, " "That's crazy," Ciara said. "I'm sure she must have been so happy. She's so lucky that he came back to his senses." "She wasn't happy. I feel like she was in so much shock. She probably thought he was an a

Geneva had gotten home quite a long time ago but she found it hard to sleep. All she could think about was Trevor and those words he had said. Even if he was speaking nothing but the truth, she couldn't bring herself to forget the humiliation she had gone through all because she was mated to some Alpha King from a pack she didn't belong to. Trevor had locked her up, made everyone think she was crazy and severed their connection. It had been really painful and on some nights when she couldn't sleep, she lay awake watching the night skies or in the woods shape shifting and howling till her voice got coarse. Her own people had made her seem like an outcast just because she got rejected and it had taken months for her to get used to the stares and gossips that were never ending. Tonight, she had also been embarrassed and Alex, the good looking Alpha in his good graces had followed her, listened to her. No one had ever done that for her. Nobody tried to listen to her.

CHAPTER 95 "Leave you?" Alex asked and burst into laughter. Athena was being ridiculous right now and it was absolutely funny. "Athena, I see that you have come here to make me laugh or make a joke out of me." "What relationship do you have with that woman?" Athena queried. It was in her eyes that she was highly jealous. She tried hard to conceal it but Alex could see it. "A relationship that's none of your business," Alex said and spooned the last food into his mouth before turning to leave. "Wait!" Athena called. Alex was laughing as she turned. "I miss you, Alex. Every waking moment of the day, I regret why I asked you to leave. Every time I wish I could see you and take back everything I said," she blurted out. Alex still had a smile on his face and as he moved towards her, he watched her fiddle with her dress. "So why did you ask me to leave?" Athena cleared her throat and said nothing. "You talking? I have to go now." "I just told you I mis

"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
