Asteria POV.It has been a few weeks since we arrived back and each day Carter is slipping and no matter what I do; he pushes me further away.I have gone to sleep on my own but have woken in his arms, but I know it’s Lykos and not him.Jerome has been here every day, and they have argued, and Carter has told him to leave and never come back. I have explained to Jerome what is happening with Carter and he has told me that he will be there for us both, even if Carter completely gives in to Sephone and her song.I have been able to find out what song it is she has used. Artemis came and told me that my suspicions were right. That the song Sephone is using is a new song. It is a combination of the song we used to calm and the song to lure. But she has added compulsion to it. To say I’m fucking angry is an understatement. Only the queen can use compulsion, and she isn’t the queen because I still live.Everyday Carter becomes more distant and I find him standing by the water looking out ov

Asteria POV.“We are sorry for not coming to you sooner. We always knew you were out there. When Poseidon brought us back the day he turned you, we told him not to say anything to you. I wish we hadn’t, then you would have been with us sooner. But if we did, you wouldn’t have become the queen you were meant to be. The world will bow to you,” he says, and I can’t help but think how things would have been different.“The impulse would have been the same. The need for revenge. I held it for so long. I watched you all die, papa. I was ready to join you all. The day he came to me, I was waiting for death. Then he gave me the choice. I chose. I don’t regret it. But the lust and the need for the death of the humans consumed me and it got out of hand. As you can see.” I say with a chuckle as I wave my hands in a dramatic flourish over myself. He chuckles before he kisses my head.“You did what you needed to do. You fought for what you thought was right. It is in your nature. Don’t lose that p

Carter POV.Waking in the morning, I was alone. I sit up and rub my head. What the fuck happened last night?“Lykos, Lykos, are you there?” I ask as my head splits with pain.“You motherfucker. Do you know what you have done?” He roars at me and I clutch my head. What is he on about?“What do you mean? I haven’t done anything.” I say to him when he roars in my head before he whines and whimpers.“You fucked Bethany and Sephone. You blocked me out. You bastard, you have destroyed her. You have destroyed my MATE!” My eyes widen as I climb out of bed and see I’m naked and I find the odd piece of clothing that doesn’t belong to Asteria. No, I didn’t. I wouldn’t. It was Asteria I was having sex with. It was her face and body I was seeing.I stagger out of the bedroom, one hand clutching my head, the other the doorframe as I open her bedroom door and it’s empty. The bed is still made. Her scent is no longer in the room.“I wouldn’t do that, Lykos. It was her I was seeing.” I say my brain fe

Asteria POV.Watching as Carter walks away from the settlement. I have a pain in my chest at how he looks so dejected.Fenrir placed an illusion around the settlement. Similar to the one in Hell. He could walk right past me and wouldn’t see, feel, or smell me. My father places his hand on my shoulder as I watch Carter disappear into the forest.I turn and face my father, who smiles softly down at me.“It will be ok, you love him. The pain you feel now. Will lessen over time. He doesn’t deserve you, Asteria.” I can’t help but feel that what he is saying is wrong. I know he was under the influence of the song. But I don’t think I can move past this. Can I forgive him when it wasn’t him?“Thank you for being there, father. I’m sorry for everything I have said to you and done. But right now, we need to prepare. She has shown her hand and has used her greatest weapon against me. She will believe that I have ran. She will believe she has won. But she has won nothing but my rage. She will kn

Asteria POV.The shriek of sirens wakes me. I climb out of bed and move through the cabin and see the sirens and wolves getting into formation.“They are here.” I turn and grab my clothes and get changed quickly as I head back out, throwing my hair into a bun. I grab a spear from one of the wolves, passing out weapons. I move through the formation to stand at the front.I turn and face them all.“Today will go down in history. The fight for Moonlight Cove. The fight for humanity against the usurper Sephone. The siren I once called my sister. May the gods bless us with victory and allow us to send them to hell. For Moonlight Cove.” I raise my spear and howls and shrieks echo around me as I turn and twirl the spear above my head before I slam it down into the ground.“MOVE OUT!” I scream as I grab it up and walk forward towards the treeline. The vibration of feet travels through the earth as I look up as a storm begins to form and I smirk.“Father!” I say as we move further down towards
Soulless Seas Chapter 58.
Carter POV.My world collapsed when Sephone thrust that spear into Asteria’s back. Lykos roared in pain as he had felt it. Something was telling me to take her to the water and when I did. I never expected her powers to return.And boy, did they return. She seemed stronger than before. The hardest part of all this was watching her leave with her people and family. Knowing I may never see her again.I watched, and I waited at the shoreline with the wolves. All of us waiting and watching for any sign that she was coming back.“She will be back. Just give her time, Carter. She needs this. She saved that little boy by once again sacrificing herself.” Destinee says to me and I turn to look at her. Her wolf, Aura, is beautiful and is so strong.“Where did that boy even come from?” I ask her when she looks behind me and I turn and smile, seeing the little boy being embraced by his sobbing family.“His family had nowhere to go, so they stayed. He left the house wanting to go to the beach. Not

Asteria POV.Swimming away from him is the hardest thing I have ever done. I fight the urge to turn around and swim back. I flick my fin harder and faster as I move effortlessly through the water when I hear it. The cries of Katrina. The killer whale from the aquarium.I open the mind link to my people, telling them to meet me there. I made a promise and I will fulfil it tonight.I swim closer and wait for my people to arrive. I breach the surface and see the aquarium in front of me. I swim towards the gates that separate the ocean to the whale and dolphin enclosure tanks.This gate is in a separate area from the main tanks, so they can’t escape unless it is opened. It can’t be opened from here.“Asteria, what are we doing here?” I turn and smile at my parents and brother.“I made a promise and I need to keep it.” I say before I dive back down and swim towards the access road. I drag myself up and let the shift take hold. I stand and no sooner do I stand. I look down and see I’m in cl
Soulless Seas Chapter 60.
Carter POV.“Carter, are you listening?” I turn away from the window and back to Jerome. I nod my head at him and he sighs as he moves closer to me.“She will be ok. You saw the news she was so bad ass releasing all the fish. I was cheering for her. Dani laughed, seeing Asteria wave at the cameras.” He says and I smile. It was all over the news what the sirens did. It is still mentioned even now. People wonder where the sirens went and have reported possible sightings, but nothing concrete.Animal activists are calling her a hero, for saving them. I couldn’t agree more. She is a hero not just to the fish and mammals, but to the town. The news also covered the war and what she did. The reporters interviewed the boy and his family, Asteria, has been named a hero of humanity.“I know, it’s just hard. She isn’t in the area and none of the sirens have been seen since that day. It has been nearly a year and no word from her or any sightings.” I tell him when he pats my shoulder, his lips in
