Achilles POVKhalid was right about using my powers instinctively, because I feel completely exhausted. I don't know how the vampire is doing so well... Perseus also seems much more tired than usual.“Your wolves are recovering and came out to use the little energy that they had recovered while resting.” Khalid explained, as we sat at the dinner table.Soph is very tired, but she needs to eat, so the dinner is light, but with plenty of high protein meat.“It also means that it will take much longer for you to be able to go through the rejection ritual.” Hyperion said, which is something that we all already know.On the one hand, I'm happy, but on the other I'm scared. We don't know how strong the curse is able to or will become.I look at Soph and see her close her eyes. I quickly get up and take her in my arms. Her breathing is still steady as she leans her head on my shoulder. As much as she wants to stay awake, her body is very fragile and desperately needs the rest.“What can we d
Sophia POVI took a deep breath, looking around me at the buildings and the movement in the streets. A part of me finds it so strange to be responsible for so many lives. I'm the Luna of this pack… And this is the first time that I'm actually thinking about it.I never thought of myself as the hero type, who would rather sacrifice herself than see someone else hurt or killed. I would have no qualms killing those who wish to harm me or the ones I love... But I can't, in good conscience, let my loves one to get hurt because of me.“Khalid...” I called the vampire.My tone is low, almost inaudible, but I know that he would hear me. Perseus and Achilles are taking care of some pack business and that's why there's only Alex, Khalid and myself in the room.“The balancing has been going on for some time...” I state, pausing for a few moments to organize my thoughts. “It means that I should now have some of Achilles’ and Perseus’ abilities, shouldn’t I?”I raise my hand and touch the glass
Sophia POVIt's been a week since the changes were brought into effect and, for the first two days it was hard to get used to all the new staff members around me. Especially as they are human and, to me, it was as though they didn't even exist. As if though something was missing from them.Achilles explained to me that it was the lack of their spiritual auras. I started to understand why Dafne always referred to me as a mere human. Nobody was aware of me being Perseus' mate, and we hardly ever acted more intimate towards each other in public.Of course, they all thanked me for the opportunity to work on this floor and they were happy to help. All these changes were explained to them and no one complained about them, as it was very clear to the pack that the balance was painful.The diet was another thing I had difficulty getting used to. It took much longer to adapt to the new diet and menu. So far, I don't enjoy eating as much, but I do feel a lot stronger. I haven't had any more fai
Sophia POV“Soph.” Achilles called out, taking my hand and helping me up.I looked at my mate, concerned, as his expression was serious.“Since you're feeling better, I talked to Gáta, and she and Khalid already have a spell ready to connect you to my father, so he can help you control the flow of energy.” Achilles explained.They had already told me about this, I don't feel comfortable, because Sapphire still doesn't like me, and I'm sure she doesn't like the idea of me being connected to her mate, even more so because of my curse... Now if they think it will help me, then I'll agree to do this ritual.“I know, Soph...” Achilles hugged me and I let myself be enveloped by his warmth. “But we have to try... Khalid said he'll use some tricks to protect my father from the curse.”I closed my eyes, letting myself be carried away by his warm scent.“I won't object, it's already been decided.” I whispered.“Soph, if you don't accept it wholeheartedly, the spell has every chance of failing.
Sophia POVI blinked a few times, focusing my gaze, realizing that I'm alone in bed, but the smell of Perseus and Achilles is everywhere. I yawned as I sat up, looked around and saw my two mates sitting at the table, they're looking at a tablet, probably analyzing something.“Good evening, Sophy.” Perseus said, looking up from the tablet.“Good night, loves.” I said, realizing I was wearing a nightgown.Perseus stood up, with Achilles who was carrying the tablet, and as soon as he got close he handed me the tablet. I took the object and saw that there was a satellite image of the pack, the Terra Verde camp and some roads leading to other packs.“We know you're getting bored.” Perseus said and gave me a kiss. “That's why I decided to bring you one of the tablets that have already been reviewed, with information about the attacks that have taken place.”I smiled at my Alpha, happy to know that he understood me so well.“As the Gay Parade is due to take place in the next few days, it has
Sophia POVMy current name is Sophia Turner, you might wonder why these days, well, I've had a lot of names and all that just to survive my past and not let it catch up with me, I'd rather die than go back to the way I was.Today I am a nurse at Gillian's Memorial Hospital, I have few friends, but these are very dear to me and are the only ones who know my story.I am a beautiful woman, today I see it, my short hair is dyed an intense red, a color that highlights my greenish eyes, with bluish lines, many say they look like cats' eyes. My nose is thin and so are the general lines of my face, yes I've had plastic surgery and I don't mind saying that. This new face is who I am, who I was born to be: A grown woman, independent, with likes and dislikes, with strong opinions and who doesn't take shit home.I'm 1.72 m tall and I don't wear high heels, after all, spending 12 to 48 hours on my feet isn't for everyone and even less should be done in heels, but the good thing is that I manage to
Sophia POVI woke up with the noise of the alarm clock and yawned, looked at the time and it was time to go back to work. Apparently nothing had happened while I was sleeping. I got up, took a quick shower, brushed my teeth, did my business, then changed into a clean new uniform, fixed my badge and left the room.Soon I'm on the 42nd floor, the first thing I noticed is that some guards had changed shifts, as well as the doctor in charge. I arched an eyebrow at the updates next to the tablet I picked up at reception.“Hey Julie, good morning.” I greeted my friend.“Hi Soph, glad you’re back.” I heard her speak, relieved."Something happened?" I got tense, but I didn't take my eyes off the tablet, going through the information on each patient, it seemed that the majority that were there had not yet been released, it was because there was a trace of silver in the organism.“These people, you know…” Julie spoke in a low tone and I took a deep breath.They were the kind of people I hated,
Sophia POVI woke up again with the sound of the alarm and went to take my medicine, wash my face, prepare coffee and something to eat. I did everything I had to do before leaving my apartment and going to the hospital, I had turned off my cell phone just so I wouldn't know what was going on, it was something I always did, doctor's orders, because after my shift I had to rest and not be overwhelmed thinking about work when I wasn't working.I greeted people as I went to the locker room and put on my uniform, clocked in and went to reception to get my tablet. Apparently I was still working and in my role, but I was still assigned to the 42nd floor, but as a consultant and not responsible, was this his way of apologizing? Well, it wouldn't work.I started my shift normally, passing by the trauma ward, talking to everyone and even attending to some cases, when I realized it was lunch time and I went to the cafeteria, took what I wanted and sat down immediately.I started replying to mess
