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.

Ralph's POVAmid the innocent pages of a seemingly children's tale, one narrative captivated my attention, aligning with my understanding of Athena.“Tala, I believe this is what we're searching for,” I shared with excitement.“What's it about?” She inquired, leaning in for a closer look.“A mysterious werewolf possessing telepathic abilities and an imposing wolf. Originating from a potent lineage, she holds the power to both create and destroy,” I read aloud.“Alright, I grasp the formidable wolf part, but telepathic powers? I'm sceptical,” she noted.“Honestly, she does have those powers,” I admitted.“What?” Tala's expression was a mix of fear and fascination.“She's struggling to control them, so we've been discreetly studying and keeping it to ourselves.”“Hmm, that's intriguing and unsettling.”“Yes, b

"Perhaps guilt compelled her. Since Damian was here for her," the father suggested.Despite the lie, I reassured them, emphasizing my determination to bring Athena back, especially considering her pregnancy."She's my wife, and I'll do everything in my power," I affirmed, receiving pleas from her desperate mother.After consoling them, I departed for my office, where I discreetly kept away my sword. Contemplating my next move, doubts crept in. How to locate her amidst potential dangers?"Athena, can you hear me?" I attempted to connect through our mind link but met with unsettling silence.

Ralph's POVReturning to the pack, Tala skillfully navigated the winding roads back to the library where Gonzolo and Tidwulf awaited."Why this strange mix of happiness and sorrow on your faces?" Tidwulf inquired, piercing gazes studying for answers./Sinking into a worn-out couch, I sighed. "It was a dead end.""A dead end? Explain," Tidwulf demanded."He spoke of his mother's demise, and Ralph put an end to him," Tala revealed, nonchalantly placing her sword on the table."He seemed to embrace his own demise willingly," Gonzolo added. "Perhaps he sought refuge in death, but he was a coward unable to end his life," Tidwulf suggested with a wry smile. Uneasy laughter filled the room. Shifting the focus, I emphasized the need to get a solution. "We can't continue like this.""Her parents, from a potent lineage, are at your house. Have we forgotten that crucial detail?" Tidwulf, ever sensible, reminded us. The realization hit like a bolt of lightning. "How could we overlook that?" T

Athena’s POV"You need to loosen up a bit, let us know how to help you," Jacob gently urged, while his wife, Otsana, attentively dressed my wound."I'm scared," I admitted."Of what?" He pressed."I have a wild wolf that can be mistaken for a beast," I confessed."I don't think that's all," Otsana chimed in."What do you mean?" I asked curiously."Your blood glowed when that evil woman tried collecting it," she added."What?" I blurted out, confused."I come from a line of shamans. I only refused to take that duty because it turns most of them evil," she explained."That's right, my wife sees beyond the ordinary," Jacob added."I didn't see the blood glow," I mumbled."Which is why I knew she wanted to take advantage of you. You come from a powerful lineage, Luna," she added."Luna?" At that point, fear began to creep in. How did she know I was Luna? I was sure I didn't mention that.
