Athena’s POV The sun was scorching today; I looked up at the sky and sighed; my lips were parched, and I needed to drink something to quench my thirst. I exited my room and headed down to the kitchen to fetch some water and possibly some nibbles. I could have called Miriam to help me fetch all of these things, but she was with Evan and I didn't want to bother her. Everyone I passed nodded to acknowledge me, and I knew the word of Evan being the alpha's son and me being his mate must have spread throughout the pack. I was already used to the looks, and I don't mind when people lock their gaze on me, I stepped into the kitchen and all the chatting stopped. I ignored them and took a glass of water, which I drank all at once and then took another, hoping to cure my awful thirst. When I was pleased, I grinned and walked out of the kitchen. I spotted Alpha Daniel approaching and paused my steps, furrowing my brows, the idea of the dinner we had crossed my mind, and I was angry with the
Andrew’s POV It was a wonder Edna agreed to work with me; I know it was a difficult decision for her to make. She must have despised me, but her independence is important to her, just as I need her help to rebuild my pack to its former glory. She is a skilled and outstanding businesswoman, and I require a large sum of money to complete a large amount of infrastructure. I went to the pack clinic, hoping to find Edna there, but the doctor said she had already left. I was surprised because I expected her to take a long time to recover, but it appeared she recovered very quickly, so I decided to walk to her chambers and asked about her health, I have to be conscious of everything I do with her. I finally arrived at the front of her chambers after walking for a while, I exhaled deeply before knocking on the door, and I heard her footsteps and the door creaked open, her furrowed brows softened when she saw me standing at the door, and my gaze went down her body and I noticed she was
Andrea’s POV Everyone in the pack has treated me with such respect since Alpha Gideon and I began our relationship. I noticed Lucas wasn't as close to me as he used to be, he kept his distance, and I know he is not thrilled with the thought that I am with Alpha Gideon. But I don't care; his viewpoint is irrelevant; all I want to know is what Alpha Gideon has and how I can use it to implement my plan; it's so inconvenient that I don't know where Athena and her son are, and if Alpha Daniel died, the news would have spread because he is the alpha king. I know I have more than one foe to deal with, the two brothers divided by their desire for the throne; I will definitely use it as bait to deal with the two of them, I sneered and mashed my lips together. I was sitting in front of the mirror, trying to appear beautiful before going over to check on Alpha Gideon; I needed to make him desire me badly so that he would have no option but to obey all of my wishes. I rose from the dress
Andrea‘s POV Enraged, I hurried back into my room; what does he think of me? After I let him kiss me, suck my breast, and touch me everywhere, despite the fact that his mere presence repulsed me, he told me I shouldn't have asked about such a contentious topic. I look in the mirror and realize that my red lipstick has smudged all over my face, most likely from kissing; I grab a moist tissue paper and slowly wipe it away. I sighed slowly and hoped that if I had overreacted, he wouldn't believe I had other motivations for asking him such a question. I immediately stopped cleaning my face and slammed my palm angrily on the desk, I shouldn't have let my emotions get the best of me, I thought about what to do and considered going back to see him and apologizing for the way I reacted. I sighed and slumped my hands beside me. I was walking back to him when I heard a knock on the door. I wrinkled my brows and opened the door to see Alpha Gideon standing there. His face was guilty, and
Daniel’s POV "The eastern border wall appears to be collapsing soon, and I believe it requires immediate intervention," Beta Carl stated. I was currently at a meeting with my council members about the pack's difficulties. "What do you think we should do?"I inquired, tapping my chair gently. "I believe we should demolish and rebuild the wall." Beta Carl responded. "I don't think that's a good idea, Alpha; if we do that, the other sides will be affected, and we'll have to destroy the entire border wall and rebuild it again."One of the elders, Gabriel, stated. “But we can’t possibly let it be, if the enemies try to attack, that wall will be the easiest way to get to the pack” Beta Carl argued “I am not saying we should let it be, we could just patch the wall and let him be so that it won’t affect other sides” Gabriel insisted. "That won't do; it's better to break down the entire wall and rebuild it." beta Carl stated "What if the enemies find out, that will give them th
Andrew’s POV I sighed and dropped the journal in my palm; with Edna's assistance and some encouraging words, I was able to read a few more pages, and it was strange how I felt an instant connection to my father. It appears he was misunderstood and wanted to be heard, so he kept this journal; however, the entry was a little confusing. My father will repeatedly emphasize how hard he worked to depose the previous alpha king before becoming one. Edna had been away from the pack for more than a week for business reasons, and I hadn't been able to read another page since she departed, I was caught on the page we read together, and all I could do was go back and read it again. I stepped outside my room, feeling fatigued; I decided to take a walk around the pack in the hopes of seeing my pack members; my eyes wandered around, and I saw a lot of work going on, the building of the pack, and I was relieved. I considered never having war in my pack again; I would rather go to the enemy p
Athena’s POV The air was chilly, so I wrapped Evan up to keep him warm. I sighed and went to the restroom, looking at my bruised body, the training session I went through yesterday was hectic, and I got injured a lot, but it was worth it, I want to prepare enough so that even if Andrea beats me, I won't feel bad. I cleansed the remainder of my body and returned to my room, where I wore something to cover up my body and bruises, knowing that if Alpha Daniel was aware of my injuries, he would not be thrilled to see my body in this state, and I don't want to be in a scenario where he warns my fellow warriors, and they begin to ease up on me. I decided to go down and get some snacks to eat because it was my resting hour and I had nothing important to do. I unlocked the door to try to get out when I spotted Alpha Daniel's hand in the air, he was probably ready to knock on the door, so the smile on my face vanished and I furrowed my brows. "Alpha Daniel," I called, and he curtly nodded
Lucas’s POV I tried to grasp what Andrea was trying to do, but no matter how I put it together, it didn't feel right; she was far too ambitious for me. This was meant to be my title, but she is taking it too personally, and I began to have my own concerns, what is Andrea up to, she is attempting to engage Alpha Gideon more like attempting to exploit him, and she has no idea how intelligent the man might be. To have a thriving pack like the one he has now, he must be incredibly intelligent and know what he is doing. I groaned, rubbing my eyes, I've been so restless trying to process everything, but I can't. I haven't been able to return to the pack and meet the few individuals who live on the land, and who knows if I will meet them if I go back; they are all rogues, and rogues like to flee when things don't go their way. I suddenly remembered Andrea using an elixir on me and how stupid I was not to realize she must be up to something. I don't know, Andrea isn't fighting for me
