Andrew's POV The downpour was stronger than I had anticipated, I grumbled as I looked out the window at the cloud, the world was chilly, shivers ran down my spine, and I felt bad about everything. I sighed and walked away from the window when I heard a knock on my door; before I could allow entry, the door was shoved open and Edna entered. The rain saturated her body, revealing the linen she wore inside. My gaze darted around her, and I quickly averted them. "I'm sorry, I was on the pack's farm when the rain started," she said, and I rolled my eyes. "You should have head to your room, you know?" I said, and she gulped down. She suddenly felt reluctant and shrugged. "I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking," she said, and my eyes fell on the floor, the water was dripping from her body and had wetted the floor, I groaned and moved closer to her. "Come here!" I said, holding her hand. I took her deeper inside my room and grabbed a shirt, I threw it at her and she almost fell while trying
Andrea’s POV I look at the tiny hole that the sun penetrated, and it felt strange; it was the most beautiful sight I had ever laid my eyes on, and I didn't think a day would come when I will miss the sun so much, and I couldn't lie, I felt exhausted and drained. I don't think I can last another few days in this cramped cell; I miss my independence so much and wish I could be free again, wearing my nice clothing and having people bend before me. I sniffed, trying to keep the tears from escaping my eyes because I am not a loser and I know I will be out of here soon, either now or later, but I won't stay here forever, I can't let that happen, and I also don't want to die in the hands of alpha Gideon. I saw the guards were unusually active today, so I assumed something was going on. I turned my head to look at Lucas, who had his eyes closed, and I wasn't sure if he was asleep or not. My throat was parched, and I really needed water; it was as if the guards had forgotten that the
Andrea’s POV I clutched the knife tightly in my palm, waiting for Alpha Gideon to make one wrong move, and I'd plunge the knife into the deeper recesses of his heart. He knew I wasn't joking with him, and my eyes became angry in a way they had never been before. I licked my lips as he raised his hands in surrender; I should have gulped down some water in the kitchen because my mouth was so dry that I had no choice but to swallow my spit. "Go inside your room, my eyes are on you," I whispered, and he gently stepped back inside his room, closing and locking the door behind him. I shut the door since I didn't want anyone to bother us. “How did you get out of the dungeon?” he asked looking shocked and I cackled. “You must think I am a fool, I didn’t survive in the wilderness being a fool, I have always known how to survive, and I will continue to survive without stopping!” I said and he sighed, his hands still raised. “Okay, I understand you, so tell me what do you want? You c
Athena’s POV “What are we going to do?” I asked Alpha Daniel spacing about in my room, he sighed and came closer to me to hold my hand, and I was barely stopping myself from bursting into tears. Evelyn had fainted after transferring the crest to me, and I kept looking at my palm, wondering if it was truly worth it. Evelyn had sacrificed her life and used all of her energy to transfer the crest to me. I know her people and the pack matter a lot to her, but I'm uncertain if it means more to her than her own life; if I had known it was going to ruin her health, I wouldn't have let her do it; she knew I wouldn't have accepted it if she had told me. "Calm down, Athena, everything will be fine soon, Evelyn will definitely wake up." Alpha Daniel said trying to calm me down, but his words weren’t enough to make me feel any better. “I hope so, I seriously hope so. I don’t know if these are worth it” I said and alpha Daniel moved closer to me holding my hands. “It's worth it, I promi
Andrea’s POV I focused my attention on the file in my hand; I don't trust Alpha Gideon, and he might have modified some words; when I was pleased with what I had read, I signed the paper next to his. "I'm done," I said, handing him the document; he gave me mine and took his own. "So, when are we getting married?"I snorted as he questioned in a mocking tone. "I want my brother to be taken care of right away, he's bleeding, and when I see he's fine, we can talk about other things," I replied, and Alpha Gideon's eyes were on me, his lips twitched, and he groaned. "Guards!" he cried and the guards rushed into his office. “Take Lucas to the pack clinic and make sure he is attended to immediately, he needs immediate attention,” he said, and they bowed before him and walked out of his office, I turned to leave, and I heard him clear his throat. Which made me tilt my head to look at him. “Where do you think you are going?” he asked, and I arched my brows at him. “Where do you
Athena’s POV The warrior’s camp was not as cheery as it always was since everyone was busy preparing for an imminent war. No one knew when the war would break out, but we do know it is coming soon, and everyone must practice with all their might. I walked away from the gathering exhausted; I had been exercising constantly for three days, thinking about Evelyn, and all I could do was express my rage about my training. "Excuse me, Lady Athena, the alpha wants to see you," someone said, and I tilted my head to look at the person, a guard standing before me, his hands clenched behind him. “Okay, thank you,” I said, and he bowed before me and walked away. I groaned and walked away from the training camp, going inside the pack house and going to Alpha Daniel's office, I gently knocked on the door and heard him grumble “Come in” I pushed the door open and went inside his office. I ran into him with several files on the desk, and he was with beta Carl and another man I'd seen seve
Athena's POV“Brother!” Alpha Daniel called and alpha Andrew moved closer to us with a smile on his face. Beside him was Edna whom I hadn’t seen after she tried to kill me, Her face was expressionless as she moved closely behind alpha Andrew, I furrowed my brows and moved back a bit, I didn’t trust them. "It's good to see you again, it's been a while," Alpha Andrew replied, turning his gaze to me. "Athena," he whispered, causing my lips to tremble. "Let's go to the pack building," Alpha Daniel remarked, and we all walked back. My gaze flickered many times to Alpha Andrew and Edna, and I wondered what they were doing here and what had compelled them to take such a risk.We finally arrived inside the pack building and Alpha Daniel led them to a room. "Do you mind settling down first?" he asked and they nodded. "Yes, we don't mind settling down first" Alpha Andrew replied, and he went inside the room with Edna, I held Alpha Daniel's hand immediately and dragged him with me. I stopped
Athena’s POV We walked out of the pack building, and I walked ahead while he walked behind me, when I was sure we were far away, I stopped walking and he also stopped. I turned and wrapped my hands beneath my chest looking at him. "I apologize for calling you outside to speak with you," Alpha Andrew said and my gaze slowly trailed off his physique; he was still as attractive as ever, but the feelings I had for him had faded. "I'm listening"He exhaled heavily as I folded my hands beneath my chest. “I have always wished I could see you and apologize to you, I am sorry for the way I treated you, I was wrong to have done all that to you. I was blinded by jealousy and I didn’t think twice before sending you and the twins away,” Alpha Andrew said, and tears clouded my eyes. I remembered how much the twins adored him; he was the first person they addressed as 'dada', he was the only man in my life who witnessed their pregnancy, and an accusation without interrogation or investigati
