A sense of fulfilment enfolded me, a newfound purpose emerging in Stormwind. Finally, I felt empowered to make a positive impact on the lives of others.
The redemption of the girls marked a turning point, opening the floodgates for troubled souls to confide in us.
Amid all that, my baby bump was becoming visible, each moment cherished, especially with Ralph steadfastly by my side.
Our evenings became a shared tradition, a leisure from our daily efforts, yet progress in our mystical research remained very little. One evening in the garden, I surfaced the idea of seeking assistance beyond our means.
"Should we turn to a shaman or someone else?" I questioned, hoping to sway him.
"What do you mean?" he replied.
"Perhaps the shaman outside the city," I suggested, sensing his hesitation. His stoic expression deepened at the mention of the shaman.
"What?" I asked innocently.
"Who told you about hi

Athena's POV"No, my mind is deceiving me. There must be a rational explanation," I pondered silently.

Athena's POV"I apologize, I shouldn't have said that. You seem quite nervous," he expressed, his touch gentle against my face.He must have sensed my fear, my heart racing at an alarming pace. Despite his comforting embrace, the unease persisted."I'll ensure we create a secure environment for you and our baby," he reassured, his hand resting on my growing bump."I feel dizzy, I'll retire to my room," I feigned a smile."But you wanted to share something," he gently reminded."It's nothing significant, we can discuss it later," I assured him."Alright. Rest well," he kissed my forehead as I exited his office.In the hallway, I pressed against the wall, clutching my chest. The surroundings felt dim.

Athena's POVThe air was charged with a mixture of disbelief and joy as my exclamation echoed through the room."Mama? Baba?!"For a moment, it felt as if I had stumbled into someone’s realm of memories, questioning the reality unfolding before me. In response, my mother's voice, tinged with surprise, whispered my name."Athena?" Without hesitation, I hurried towards them, and the three of us found solace in an embrace, tears streaming down our faces.Ralph, sensing the profound nature of the moment, swiftly dismissed the enforcers. Tala, who stood beside him, was equally taken aback.Lost in the embrace, I couldn't estimate how much time passed. Eventually, my mother withdrew from the hug, cradling my face with tender hands, and studying me intently."You... you are... pregnant," she stammered, her fingers gently tracing the outlines of my baby bump.It seemed as though the unborn child ackn

A gentle knock preceded my father unlocking the door.“Baba,” I greeted him, a smile gracing my face. The reality of the moment settled in, it was not a dream but an actual reality.“Good morning,” he replied warmly, enveloping me in a hug.“And where is Mama?” I inquired after our embrace.“In the bathroom,” he responded, and I nodded in understanding.Taking a seat on the couch, my eyes were pulled to an array of snacks on the table. Unable to resist, I reached for them.“Athena,” my mother's voice called out as she emerged from the bathroom.“Mama, good morning,” I greeted her with a smile.Seated opposite me, they observed as I absentmindedly munched on the snacks. Regaining my composure, I noticed their intent gazes.“Mm,” I cleared my throat

Immersed in my office tasks, the urgent call reached me through the mind link courtesy of Tala. “Intruders are at the southern border,” she announced. “I’ll be there immediately,” I replied. Swiftly, I accessed my concealed shelf, retrieving the sword that had seen its share of challenges.As my office door shut behind me in response to the disruption, I heard a loud bang and sensed imminent trouble. Quickly I entered a car driving towards the southern border, a flood of thoughts rushed through my mind, pondering who would dare breach my pack. “Tala, exercise caution. Limit the number of soldiers at the southern border, this might be a diversion to breach into the pack while all our forces are there. Ensure the Council members are notified, instruct them to stay vigilant at home,” I conveyed through the mind link.

Athena's POVSensing a frightening disturbance, my instincts urged me to action. Ralph's abrupt exit heightened my concern, the echoes of disruption resonating from the south."Baba, Mama, please go back inside," I urged.“What is happening? What was that?” I was met with a barrage of questions."Yifa!" I summoned her to guide them to safety and ensure they remained sheltered."Luna, what about you?" Yifa inquired, her worry evident."I'm just checking on Ralph, I'll return shortly," I assured her. Lyall, our steadfast head of security, intervened."You can't step out," he warned, acknowledging the looming danger."I must," I insisted, acknowledging the gravity of the situation."Alpha will kill me if anything happens to you" Lyall pleaded, and I reluctantly agreed, returning indoors.Peeking through the window, I watched Lyall disappear from view.

Ralph's POV Witnessing my wolf crumble, Athena swiftly transformed into a colossal beast. Its strength, size, and piercing red eyes unmistakably mark it as the very creature we had relentlessly pursued. In shock, I observed her dismantle every obstacle in her path. Though an arrow punctured her, she nonchalantly extracted it, leaving no cut in her relentless advance. In a brief span, she wrought a devastating massacre. She turned her lethal prowess on our soldiers, Tala's wolf attempted to intervene, only to become a target. It became evident that Athena had no control over the wolf. Unexpectedly, she refrained from delivering the fatal impact. After ensnaring Tala's wolf momentarily, Athena withdrew, and the once-red eyes of the beast returned to their normal state, a sign that Athena had regained control. The infusion of wolfsbane into my bloodstream left me weak, Conri whimpering in agony. Struggling to shift back to human form, I extracted an arrow, my shoulder and chest oozin

Athena's POVFive years later… As the evening sun cast its golden glow upon us, I found myself drawn once again to Tala's grave, my hand instinctively resting on my swollen belly as I settled onto the grass beside her final resting place."Hey, dear... I'm sorry I haven't visited for a while. A lot has been happening," I began, my voice soft as I spoke to the silent earth beneath me. "You know, as the head of the council of Alphas, it's been hectic, but I enjoy it," I chuckled softly, the weight of my responsibilities tempered by the knowledge that I was carrying new life within me.Bringing out the water bottle I had brought with me, I took a sip before carefully arranging the forest flowers I had gathered on Tala's grave, a small gesture of remembrance and love."You know, I miss you Tala," I continued. “Let me tell you what had been happening, Ulf is still carrying her duty very well.

Ralph inquired, his gaze locking with mine."Fable pack. I yearn to lay eyes upon Sarah," I declared. Thinking of the little girl.Before we ventured further, Ralph halted me with a solemn confession, redirecting my focus towards him.He recounted the incidents between himself, Tala, and the family.

If not for the pressing matters at hand, you would have relished the moment.”“And?”“And I refuse to let this opportunity slip through your fingers. Embark on this journey with Athena, just the two of you,” she urged.“But what about Fridolf?” I interjected“Everyone stands ready to care for him.

I questioned, my voice muffled by the plush confines of our bed."Yes, my Queen. It's a momentous occasion, one that deserves to be celebrated in grandness," Ralph implored. "Very well, you've persuaded me," I conceded with a soft chuckle, the corners of my lips curling into a gentle smile.With a concerted effort, we roused ourselves from the comforts of our bed, preparing for the festivities that awaited us under the moon's luminous embrace.

You should have called me," he remarked, and I res
