Charlie POV.Kronos, the titan. The father of the three-main gods. Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades. The destroyer of worlds. I look at him, my mouth open, and Gaia giggles. Fucking giggles like I’m not sitting opposite the one man who can kill the Gods.“Surprise!” I look at Gaia and she smiles at me like the bomb that was just dropped wouldn’t annihilate everything.“Kronos? As is the real Kronos?” I ask in disbelief, and he rolls his eyes with a groan.“Yes, the real Kronos. Now we have the introduction out of the way. Why are you both here?” he asks, moving back to address Gaia.“Well, we need your help. Plus, I missed your grumpy ass.” Gaia speaks with such familiarity, not that she is talking to the one man, God, Titan, then can destroy the world if he was released.“Let me guess, my sons have done something that requires me coming out of retirement?” he scoffs like this is nothing new for him. That his son’s causing trouble seems like he is used to this.“Not out of retirement, but ye
Rosa POV.It has been four months since we started this. I have lost count of the lives we have taken. Do I feel guilty? No, if I was to be asked this in the beginning, the answer would be different. But now? No, I don’t.We have moved from small towns to the cities. We move at night and kill those who have betrayed their mates and partners. Like the people in front of me. They have no idea we are here watching them.We have unlocked certain gifts. Watching from the shadows. Currently watching as a man, an Alpha is cheating on his fated mate with her mother and her best friend. This is what makes this easier.I don’t look away as I watch him plough into his mate’s mother as he sucks on the nipple of her best friend. The moans begin to get louder and his thrusts become harsher and sloppy. I scoff, knowing he is nearly finished.I chuckle loudly as I step out of the shadow that was against the wall. We have learnt to move through things like a ghost.“Bravo.” I say, clapping my hands sl
Rosa POV.I stay rooted to my spot, looking into the eyes of the titan leader. The father of Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon. Kronos.“I’m here to help you, Rosa. Your mom and your mate will be here soon. We need to move before another guardian comes for you.” That snaps me out of my confused and scared mind. He offers me his hand and I take it as he pulls me to my feet.“Why help me?” I ask when he smiles softly down at me.“What my son has done is wrong. I know it is strange for me to say that given my history, but the laws he made about children he has broken that, when he marked you for death. I am the only one who can help you.” he says I go to speak when …“ROSA!” I spin and look at my mom and Charlie running towards me. I reach for them as they run into my arms and I fall sobbing.“I’m sorry. It was the only way. I’m sorry.” I sob when my mom chuckles as she runs her fingers through my hair.“You have nothing to be sorry for. I told you I would help you. I see you have met Kronos. He
Charlie POV.“Name it!” I snap at Kronos as Rosa’s heartbeat slows.“You know what I want.” He replies and I look at him with a hiss and nod my head. He smiles at me, he moves closer to us and moves to his knees. He takes Rosa’s hand in his.“We don’t have long. The venom is working fast.” He mutters and I go to snap at him to hurry up when he closes his eyes and mumbles ancient words under his breath.I watch Rosa closely; I watch as black veins appear under her skin. The venom moving when Kronos’s hand glows and the venom moves backwards towards his hand as his magic pulls on it, drawing it out. Rosa moans I reach for her when Kronos grabs my wrist.“I will remove the mark. I need your sacrifice.” He says as I watch the venom completely leave her. That’s when I see it, the black mark around her aura.“Do it.” I say when my palm opens on its own. I hiss at the stinging pain as my blood pools and drips through my fingers.His palm opens, and he connects his palm with mine, and I screa
Rosa POV.“You have been summoned to the heavens.” This woman speaks, and I growl as Jadara, Cece, and Angel all step forward. I feel rage that I am being summoned like a loyal dog.“Oh, and who has summoned me?” I spit at her as I stalk closer to her. She smirks at me and watches me with curious eyes.“My father, Zeus.” She states and I move fast and grab her by her throat. She chuckles as I squeeze her damn throat.“I wouldn’t if I were you, Rosa. It’s not a good idea to threaten the goddess of wisdom and warfare.” She says like I’m beneath her. I release her with a shove.“Don’t fucking back down.” Jadara speaks and I have no intention of backing down. I will go as requested and unleash the angel of death. I will see what Zeus does then.“Lead the way.” I spit at her when she chuckles, raising her hand in the air and more guardians step out.“Don’t resist Rosa. Otherwise, this will end badly for you.” She says, as I am cuffed and chained.“Rosa, you can’t give in like this,” Charli
Rosa POV.Every fibre of my being was ignited. The rage grew like a ball ready to explode. Zeus was going to know the error of his ways. I lift off the ground, not taking my eyes from him as he smirks at me. My gaze moves to the two that lay dead on the ground.With a scream, I release my rage as it bursts free, the barrier shatters and I waste no time flying towards him. He throws bolts of lightning at me, but I dodge each strike. I flex my wings as daggers fly towards him as I swoop down and we clash.I attack him with such ferocity, a fury inside of me that I never knew I had. I have never felt this explosive anger before and right now it is directed at the one who deserves it.He kicks me off him, and I fly backward, crashing into the side of the palace. I slid across the marble floor as he stalks towards me.“Pathetic. I would have thought you would have been a damn challenge after all the shit you pulled, but now I see it. A frightened little orphan girl who has serious parental
Charlie POV.Gaia grabs me as the heavens fall and pulls me into a portal. Fuck! Earth has gone to shit. Kronos carries an unconscious Zeus. He isn’t dead, but he is seriously injured and it will take time for him to heal.“What happened?” I ignore the question as I close my eyes and see the devastation and heartbreak on Rosa’s face. Especially when I saw Jadara and Cece in her arms. He killed them. So this is on him and I don’t feel a grain of sympathy for him.“This is her revenge. He killed her wolf and anchor. The Angel has taken complete control. The world is burning and …”“The seas will boil, with the kingdom of heaven falling. Earth will follow, the balance has been destroyed. Demons are running loose as well as all manner of monster.” Odessa tells us and I look at her and she looks gravely at what is happening.“We need to stop her, but how?” someone asks and I turn and look at them and shake my head.“There is no stopping the Angel of Death. Especially when that golden prick
Rosa POV.I stand up and see my ancestor and Selene. They are both watching me, completely saddened by what is happening around them.“Why are you both here?” I ask as I step back, shielding Cece. My poor wolf, I only wish I was a better person to her. She deserved better than me.“We are here to help you. Rosa, you need to stop this. You gravely wounded Zeus. The heavens have fallen. Hell is reigning on earth. The Gate has been unlocked.” I look around and see Selene is telling the truth, but wait.“Zeus is still alive?” I say, balling my fists as I take a step forward. I feel nothing. If he was still alive, the heavens wouldn’t be falling.“Rosa, let me explain. Yes, he is still alive, but is only holding on by a thread. He is weak and needs to get back home. If he doesn’t, then this will be the end of life as you know it. Remember who you are. This is not you!” she says and I step up to her. The fucking Moon Goddess, my ex-aunty. She is a fucking snake.“Good, they can all burn for
