111. Selene scoffed. She couldn't believe he was bringing up the matter of friendship right now, when he was the one who was trying to ruin her efforts. He was her friend alright, but he was being selfish and had refused to support her in what would bring help to them all. She turned and looked at Apollo, who waited patiently for her to run into his arms. If there was one thing he knew about Selene, it was that she valued their friendship a lot and had put in great effort to make it work. He was certain she wouldn't choose a nobody over the friendship they shared. “If you valued our friendship so much, you wouldn't be acting like a villain in my love story, Apollo,” she replied and his eyes widened. He was not expecting this from her. “If you were truly my friend, you would have cheered me on. You wouldn't have tried to force yourself on me.” her eyes turned glassy as she spoke. Apollo's fists tightened, his jaw clenched as anger built up in him again. “Selene! What has come over y

I swung on the chair in the office as I looked at the business proposal sent by Alpha Norman of Shadow Clan Pack. From my research, he was a very powerful Alpha and was a business associate with Elora's father before his death.I had gone through his profile and also did some research. He was a good man, and wasn't involved in any fraudulent activities like the miscreants the late Alpha worked with before.Elora walked in, looking exhausted. I smiled at her. “Why do you look like you just got beaten by a bear?” I asked.She walked to where I sat and slumped on my body. “I'm so tired.”“It's only 11am.” I laughed and she pouted.“So? Can't you see I'm not in the mood for stress today?” She rolled her eyes cutely. “I've been working on some files brought in about Zora's father since morning and haven't had the time to eat or rest.”I smiled and made her sit on my lap. She wrapped her hands around my neck. “So, what do you want to eat?” I asked.“You,” She replied and my eyes widened. My

115.Selene appeared in Zeus's throne room and looked around. He wasn't on the throne, and she couldn't feel his energy either.“Zeus!” she called, still looking around. “Zeus! I want us to talk, please.” she called out, and he appeared on the throne, his commanding presence, sending a wave of electricity throughout the room.Selene stood unmoved. It didn't shock him because she was the only one who could measure up to his strength. She could be like a second to him if he could put it that way but even she didn't know that.“Selene.” he called.“Greetings,” she bowed slightly, and he gestured for her to take a seat on one of the seats there. She smiled appreciatively and sat down.“What do you want, child? I told you not to come here until you've taken your powers.” he looked away from her.“That is exactly why I am here, Zeus. The full moon is only a day away in the mortal world. I came to plead with you again for another chance at love with Dominic,” she said and his countenance cha

117Swimming Class…The students all lined up at the back of the swimming pool with their swimsuits on. Most of the girls used that opportunity to wear revealing suits that would seduce the boys present.Selene was still in the dressing room with Naya. She wasn't comfortable with wearing the swimsuits and Naya sighed.“Babe, it's no big deal. Are you scared of water?” she asked, amsued that the moon goddess would be scared of something. Selene shook her head. “I'm not scared of water. Why would I be scared of something I can manipulate?” she sighed. “It's just that I find this swimsuits disturbing. Isn't there a way I can skip today's class? Afterall, my grades here doesn't matter anyway.” Naya shook her head. “But you need the experience, my dear, so step into one of these or better still, change it into something you would be able to wear. You have the power to do that, don't you?” Selene smiled and was about to say something when Matilda walked in. “What powers is she talking ab

119.It was out.Selene couldn't believe the moon was literally out. She stared at the light that reflected and sprayed its rays through the window. She could feel her powers calling out to her, begging her to come take them. The emergence of the moon seemed to awaken every tingling senses she had in her, and she felt more powerful.The moon was still going to be active for a few days, meaning she still had time to talk to Zeus and hasten him up to know what his decision would be about. The only thing she needed from him was a go ahead. Artemis and Aphrodite appeared immediately.“Selene!” They called and she turned to face them.“I know. The full moon is out,” she sighed and ruffled her hair.The goddesses shared worried looks. “What are your going to do now?” Artemis asked.Selene massaged her temple. “The moon won't be disappearing soon. I still have some time to convince Zeus.”“But Selene, Zeus spoke with the gods and goddesses and…” Aphrodite trailed off.Selene looked up at th
