Andrea's POV It had been days since my encounter with gamma Thomas and I hadn't heard anything from him; I was afraid he wouldn't fall for my tricks and end up telling alpha Gideon, which would eventually ruin all of my plans; my heart was racing, and I decided to check on alpha Gideon, who hadn't checked on me either for the past few days. I arrived at his chamber and tapped on the door. I heard his feeble voice and pushed the door open, entering the room. He was sitting on the bed with a file in his hand, which he dropped beside him and raised his head to see me. He had a slight smile on his face as his eyes wandered around me; he didn't look as happy as he usually does when he sees me, and I became concerned; what if he's just sleepy or doesn't want to see me? I swiftly zipped down my gown, took it off, and came closer to him,"What are you doing?" He inquired, his brow furrowed at me. "You haven't asked of me in a few days, and I had missed you so much, I couldn't breathe
Lucas’s POV Andrea is certainly hiding something from me, and I can't figure out what it is. I groaned, rubbing my palm all over my head, exhausted; I need to figure out how to go about it, and I can't stay here feeling useless. I walked out of my room with the intention of walking around the pack to get some fresh air, but my steps came to a halt when I noticed Alpha Gideon standing nearby; I want to be on his good side so that he doesn't suspect my motives, and I had been giving him the cold shoulder before learning about Andrea's plan. I was walking closer to him to exchange greetings when I saw he was exchanging hushed tones with someone, I peered to look at the person, and it was one of the servants, and they seemed as if they didn't want to be found. I became skeptical because I knew alpha Gideon couldn't be too good to be true; he wouldn't be able to manage such a large pack with so many armies if he was a fool who could easily fall for any woman; he might know who we are a
Lucas’s POV My legs failed me as I raced out of the room, barely managing to lock the door and walk briskly to my room, perhaps certain secrets are not meant to be revealed and this has shown alpha Gideon is not what he appears to be. "Please, please save me!"Her voice rang in my thoughts as I walked back to my chamber, wondering who the lady could have been. She was neither dead nor living, and she appeared to desire to be saved, no! She must be rescued. How can Alpha Gideon be so cruel as to imprison someone who is half-dead? What had happened to her? Her eyes seemed lifeless, her hands feeble, and she could hardly stand on her own. How did she get to that point, and why is Alpha Gideon isolating her from the rest of the world when he could simply kill her and rescue her from the pain she is subjected to, countless thoughts raced through my mind at once, and I felt...hopeless. The scene was terrifying, and I was suddenly afraid for Andrea, despite everything she was doing.
Athena’s POV I didn't understand why I lied to Alpha Daniel, I could have told him that nothing occurred between us and that we barely kissed a few times, that we couldn't be intimate because of the kids, and that we were just waiting for the proper time to get to that point before everything got wrecked. Maybe I lied because I really wanted to embrace alpha Andrew, but I never did; I never experienced what it was like to be loved and make love; I never made love; I just had sex as a breeder and nothing else. It hurts my heart, and I sometimes wish I could be in the embrace of love, but I've learned to accept my fate; I wasn't built for love. Love is not for me, and every time I go through a trial, I end up hurting myself. I should just focus on my son, and that should be my primary concern. Who knows when Andrea and Lucas will decide to make another appearance? I yawned and rose from my bed, checking on Evan, who was blissfully asleep; I had been so fearful of anything happen
Athena’s POV It's been a few days since I went out to walk with alpha Daniel in the middle of the night, and I've been trying hard to avoid him since that night triggered something deep within me, and I've been dreaming about being in his arms, which is absolutely the last thing I want. I walked out of my chamber with the idea of heading to training; Miriam was with Evan, so I had no need to be concerned; nevertheless, my movements were abruptly halted when I noticed Alpha Daniel approaching me, his gaze focused on mine, and he slowed his movements. "Good morning, Alpha Daniel" I greeted, nearly groaning at the fact that all my efforts to avoid him appeared futile, I should have known he will definitely find me “Good morning Athena, I was coming to your chamber to see you,” he said, and I arched my brows at him. “Why? Is everything alright?” I asked and he nodded positively. “Yes everything is fine, I just wanted you to know I will be leaving the pack for a few days, I hav
Andrea’s POV I was lost in thought about what Lucas told me a few days ago, about alpha Gideon hiding someone in the abandoned side of the pack building. I don't know what to make of this, and I'm so irritated that Lucas is making me scared. I'm not very interested in Alpha Gideon's history, present, or future. All I care about is gaining control of his pack and utilizing his army. I groaned and exited my room, needing to drink something to calm my racing heart. I headed to the bar and grab a strong wine, clutching it tightly in my fingers as I walked back to my house, when I noticed Gamma Thomas walking away, and he didn’t see me, an idea suddenly popped into my head and I swiftly moved over to meet him. "Gamma Thomas," I yelled, and he turned to face me, his gaze falling on the bottle of wine I was holding. "Andrea," he exhales, and I grinned; I know my very presence disturbs him. "Do you mind sharing this wine with me, I'd like to drink with someone, and please don't say
Athena’s POV It's been four days since Alpha Daniel left the pack; I've been wondering what he's up to, and every time I see Evan, he reminds me of him. I went out of the pack building, practically dazzled by the sun's brightness, and I groaned, shielding my face. I noticed Philips, and he grinned as he approached me; he's been polite to me since the day he followed me to the pack clinic, and I don't mind his company at all. "The sun is shining brightly today," Phillips observed, and I nodded. "Yes, I noticed, it's blinding," I remarked, and he chuckled as we began heading towards the training center; gamma Alfred doesn't play with any of us, and he made sure we trained thoroughly; I don't blame him because we are indirectly preparing for war. I abruptly came to a halt as I noticed a guard approaching us; Philips ultimately came to a halt as well, "What is it?"I inquired as the guard came to a halt in front of us, his hands on his knees panting heavily, and I wondered why he wa
Lucas’s POV I gently returned the keys to Mary without her awareness. I saw there were other keys and decided to steal one so that I could readily visit that place whenever I wanted. It was late at night, and most people had returned to their chambers. I decided to go to the abandoned section of the pack's building to make sure I had seen that woman correctly; who knows, I could have been hallucinating. I was walking down the corridor when I heard footsteps and immediately hid between the walls. I observed Alpha Gideon walking down the direction I would have taken and cautiously followed his footsteps, making sure to stay away from him because I didn't want him to see me stalking him. He finally stopped walking in front of the half-alive lady's door, opened the door with the key in his hand, and went inside the room, I stood outside, and after what seemed like fifteen minutes, he came outside and locked the door before walking away, I watched him walk away, and when I was sure he
