Chapter 99 (Another Adventure)
Ralph's POV
Since our return home, the relentless pull to reclaim the kettle has haunted my thoughts incessantly. Unable to shake its grip, I beckoned Tala to my office, eager for counsel.
“I'm contemplating dispatching our finest soldiers to retrieve it,” I confided to her.
“Come on, Ralph,” she countered.
“What?”
“Remember what you said during our quest for Athena in the woods? If not for the pressing matters at hand, you would have relished the moment.”
“And?”
“And I refuse to let this opportunity slip through your fingers. Embark on this journey with Athena, just the two of you,” she urged.
“But what about Fridolf?” I interjected
“Everyone stands ready to care for him. He's no longer a newborn, he'll be perfectly fine,” she reassured.
“I suppose, but I'm unsure how Athena will take to it,” I mused

Athena's POVFive years later… As the evening sun cast its golden glow upon us, I found myself drawn once again to Tala's grave, my hand instinctively resting on my swollen belly as I settled onto the grass beside her final resting place."Hey, dear... I'm sorry I haven't visited for a while. A lot has been happening," I began, my voice soft as I spoke to the silent earth beneath me. "You know, as the head of the council of Alphas, it's been hectic, but I enjoy it," I chuckled softly, the weight of my responsibilities tempered by the knowledge that I was carrying new life within me.Bringing out the water bottle I had brought with me, I took a sip before carefully arranging the forest flowers I had gathered on Tala's grave, a small gesture of remembrance and love."You know, I miss you Tala," I continued. “Let me tell you what had been happening, Ulf is still carrying her duty very well.

Athena's POV "I, Damian Jasper, the Alpha of Cone pack, reject you, Athena George, as my mate". The words tore through me, a scorching pain gripping my heart. An unspeakable hurt consumed me as he should have declared me as his Luna. Maybe it was a mistake, I thought desperately. Before I could comprehend the unfolding scene, he declared Ashina, my cousin and only friend, as his mate. Tears gushed down my face as I witnessed her acceptance. Was this a twisted nightmare or a cruel reality? "What is happening?" I managed to choke out, desperate for an explanation. "You're a pathetic excuse for a wolf" Damian insulted. Each word cut through the air, exposing my vulnerability to the entire pack. "Why? Why are you doing this?" I barely whispered, my voice barely audible. "You're a disgrace to all werewolves, a disgrace to our kind" Ashina cursed, her hand intertwined with Damian's. "Accept the rejection!" she smirked, her mockery visible. "I... I can't," I stammered, the weight

It was the unsettling desire within me, almost welcoming the thought of him ending my mystery. I couldn't muster the strength to plead my innocence. Back in the dungeon, I was left motionless, unable to cry or do anything. Since the final sentence, no one has tortured me. I was just left there, drowning in my misery. I wondered how my heart made it through the night, replaying my situation endlessly in my mind. The next day marked Luna's funeral. As the pack celebrated, my mother reached out to me through the mind link. "We'll get you out of there my Athena" she confidently said. "Mother, perhaps I'm better off dead than alive" I told her, losing all hope. "Don't ever say that! You have been nothing but a blessing to me and your father. You must live and I know we'll be reunited someday, just wait for my signal" she conclud

Because he is a vicious monster who kills without mercy?" she questioned, sensing my fear.In response to my reaction, she laughed. "My dear, you don't have to believe everything you hear.
