The world stopped for her when she opened her eyes and looked into the most alluring grey eyes. Only their erratic heartbeats were heard, nothing else. It looked like they even stopped breathing.
When Athena slipped, she expected to fall into the arms of the cold ground. Not into the arms of her heartless ex mate. His strong arms were wrapped protectively around her slim waist while her hands were on his hard chest as they looked into each other's eyes. They were intoxicated by each other's scent.
"Do you always do what you are asked not to?" Dominic suddenly spoke up with a blank look on his face.
He didn't know what he was doing here. He didn't know why he came here but he just came. He was supposed to go to a peaceful place and find some peace there. Then why did his legs bring him here? To her. Being near her brought him anything but peace. She was the reason for his restlessness and m
"I would like to talk to her. Leave us alone everyone, right now."Everyone looked at the door and saw Stacey standing there with a polite smile on her face. Her chin was held up in pride and sophistication. She looked somewhat powerful. Athena wondered what was the source of her power."Good morning, Luna." Nathan said in a neutral tone and received a small nod for Stacey. "Luna, I am afraid you can't talk to her alone without the alpha's permission." He added after that. His tone was serious."As the Luna of the pack, I get to decide with whom I will talk and how. So, leave." Stacey said in authority in her tone.Athena looked at her from head to toe with a judgemental look on her face. She likes to call herself a judgemental bitch but she is not guilty for that. It gives her a little power over the opposite person because most of the time she turns out to be right.
"Athy! Come here! We are here!"Athena heard Suzanne's voice from her left while she was wandering off mindlessly. She was trying to catch Ace's scent to find him and Suzanne. Suzanne was sitting on the breakfast table with unknown faces. Ace was sitting between Nathan and another man, surprisingly not with or beside Suzanne.She walked toward the table with a cold look on her face, trying to present herself as unapproachable. There were two unknown faces with Suzanne, Nathan and Ace."Ace." She called him, who was busy giggling at something the other man was saying. He looked up as soon as he heard her voice and gave him a big smile."Mommy!" He exclaimed loudly in happiness before standing up on his chair and jumped on it. "I love it here so much!" He exclaimed with a clap, making her shocked.She looked at Suzanne who was giving her a worried look
Ace ran upstairs without knowing any way of course. He wasn't even seeing where he was running as his eyes were filled with tears. He ran to the third floor of the building and kept running through the hallway with his small legs. He didn't have the intention to stop as he wanted to hide far away from his mommy. He was really angry at mommy this time. He wasn't going to forgive her easily this time. His chains of thoughts were cut short when his small leg got stuck with the carpet and he was going to face plant the floor. "Mommy!" He let out a cry in fear as he waited for the pain to hit him. But that didn't come. He had his eyes still closed when he realised that he wasn't on the ground anymore. He was held up on the air. "Mommy, don't think I am going to forgive you just because you saved me. I am very angry." He blabbered out, trying to sound angry. His eyes were still closed. "Why are you angry with your mommy?" Ace quickly opened his eyes hearing a new voice which didn't b
"Don't you dare to touch him!" Ace gasped at the loud voice before hiding behind Dominic's back. He crouched down and turned himself into a small ball. He clutched Dominic's shirt tightly in his small fist. "Stacey? What the hell is this behaviour?" Dominic asked with a deep frown. He didn't like how Stacey just barged into his room, without his permission. On top of that she was acting as if she owned this place. Her attitude was not acceptable to him at all. "You think something is wrong with my behaviour? What are you doing?" Stacey asked with a mean frown as she invited herself in the room by herself and walked toward him. She stood in front of him with a clenched jaw and hardened eyes. She glared at Ace which made him crouch some more. "Stacey! You are scaring him!" Dominic snapped at her in irritation while holding Ace's little hands assuringly. "What are you doing here with him, Dominic?" Stacey asked in irritation. "That's none of your business. What are you doing
"Any news, Nathan? Justin?" Dominic asked in his usual cold tone as he looked at his second and third in commands. "No news till now." Nathan spoke up with a small frown on his face as he fell into thoughts. "Alpha Derrick is lying low. No threats or anything from them. They have been too silent." Justin answered as it was his duty to keep a tab on what's happening around the packs. "Try to gather enough proof against him and then I will call a community meeting to put him down from the thrones. Because if he is really misusing his power by kidnapping and torturing people, he doesn't deserve that." Dominic said in a cold tone while looking outside the window to the big forest. "We can talk to Suzanne and Athena. I am sure what they have got to say is enough to throw him off the throne." Justin suggested. "Yeah, let them settle down a little bit and then we can talk to them." Nathan replied. "We can't let our guard down. Even though he doesn't stand a chance in front of us, he
“That witch! I feel like pulling all her hair out!” Patricia huffed in anger as she cursed someone under her breath. “I am so angry right now. How dare she behave like that with Ace! She scared my poor baby.” Suzanne said with a frown as well as she caressed Ace's face lovingly. “Calm down, girls. He is okay now. Let him sleep for a few hours. He will be completely fine.” Even though Athena acted like she was calmed down but in actuality she was burning in anger. Ace has just fallen asleep after crying for the past half an hour after they came out of that room. He was a little scared of the way Stacey behaved with him. “He didn't eat well at breakfast. Should I ask the maid something for him and for you as well? You also haven't eaten anything since yesterday. Oh god! It's been more than one day. I will ask the maid to make something right away.” Patricia spoke up in a worried tone. "Oh, please don't stress over something like that. I am absolutely fine. You don't need to dis
"What the fuck are you doing?! Leave me! I said leave me, can't you fucking hear me!" Athena shouted and trashed around to get freed from his hold but her struggle was nothing in front of his steel body. She punched on his pack hard while dangling upside down but he didn't even acknowledge that. He continued to climb up the stairs with her on his shoulder. She looked around for help but suddenly the whole pack house was empty. There wasn't any sign of soul. What the hell? He might have mindlinked everyone to leave until he orders. What the hell is his problem?! Athena couldn't handle him or his actions anymore. "Put me do-...!... Ouch!" She scowled as she was abruptly dropped on a bed. She didn't realise when they entered the room. She looked past him and saw that he even locked the door. What the hell?! When did that happen? She quickly came out of her useless thoughts and glared at him who was already glaring at her. He was breathing really hard as he tried to control his
"Mommy! Mommy! Wake up! Look where we are! Mommy!" The familiar little hands shook Athena. She slowly started to come back to consciousness. She let out a groan as she opened her eyes and completely came back to her senses. Her head was blasting. She slowly sat up. "Ace, baby, can you please keep it low. Mommy's head is aching." She said slowly and lovingly as she picked him up. She put him on her lap and kissed him on the cheeks, making him giggle. But he listened to her and didn't say anything else. "Of course your head will ache. You didn't have anything for so long and went to cook. Now look at what happened." Suzanne said in a stern tone as she suddenly came out of nowhere with a tray filled with food. "Suzy? What's going on? Where are we and what happened to me?" She asked in confusion as she tried to remember things but her mind hit blank space at that moment. "You lost consciousness. Now we will talk later, first have this food." Suzanne ordered as she pushed the tray
