"I was doing just fine before you came, Zeus,” I whispered and the wind blew softly across the flowers decorated around his grave. My chest raged with a burning pain intertwined with anger and sadness. My eyes embattled warm tears I resisted from touring across my cheek. I couldn't help but get swallowed in the moments we had together. They came in a flash yet each moment struck hard in my heart. Like a burden that kept pulling up."But then you came like a star, you stole my fragile heart." My palms curled into a fist as I breathed softly. "And like a strange visitor, you left me." My voice trailed off. "You left our child. You left us..." A tear gently toured down my cheek and my pain only dosed, my head kept replaying his last moment. How he had died horribly. How I had failed in protecting my mate when he needed me the most. "Let it out..." I heard his voice tone softly beside me. I frowned whilst turning my head sharply to my right."Zeus?" I called weakly in awe and disbel
The night was surprisingly cold in Olive land, the moon hung dimly than usual, the forests were unusually eerie as if it had noticed my present. But I cared less about these things and simply focused on tracing the Lycan's abode. "We both know you're doing the wrong thing, Green." Zeus sounded beside me as I trailed on the dry leafy path. "This is not the time to lecture me." I retorted, keeping my gaze forward. "I'm going to avenge you and that's all that matters." "Green..." He held my wrist causing both of us to halt. "I know you want to avenge me, I can understand the rage fueling inside you but killing the Lycan would only worsen things. It won't ease your pain." "I know it won't." I heaved a sigh as my gaze lowered to the dry leaves. I couldn't even look into those Hazel eyes, I was unworthy or perhaps I was scared I might change my mind. "Then why are you doing this?" He asked softly. "I can't bear it, Zeus. I can't bear to see him happy while I'm miserable. I can't seem
As I walked on the hallway leading to my room, amidst the darkness and solemnity, my mind trailed to our first night together. How he had carefully treated my wounds with his ointment. I still remembered how smooth his touch felt, his warm breaths, the relief intertwined with pleasure I felt.I pushed my twin doors open and I was immediately welcomed with warmth and darkness. I heaved a sigh, tired of everything. Without thinking, I crashed into my bed. I flipped my fingers against each other and my clothes disappeared leaving my underwear. My eyes faintly closed and then I felt his presence again. I opened them and there he was. His accustomed warm smile and Hazel eyes that gleamed, his blonde hair were perfectly messy to my taste."At least wear a smile for me. Aren't you happy to see me?" He toned sweetly but I only managed to feign a tiny sad smile."I failed to avenge you Zeus." I mumbled with a heavy dose of guilt blooming. "I failed you once again." My voice broke as tears grac
PETER'S POV"Centuries ago, My Father was a debtor to a ruthless Alpha." I started on a solemn note as I stared at the whiskey in my cup. It took me to the night I had my last drink with Zeus. My palm gradually curled beneath the table while their gaze fell on me. Martha and Simon, seated by my side."Unfortunately he died without paying his debt and I was forced to carry the burden. I became the Alpha's secret right hand. Doing his dirty jobs. Killing, kidnapping, stealing and all sorts. They were payment for my father's debt."I paused, my gaze still retained on the glass. A tiny smile beamed on my face. A sad one that didn't live to see the next second."And one day, the Alpha asked me to kill Zeus." I paused again, reliving the whole moment in my head. "Fear was the first feeling I experienced hearing his name.I wondered why the Alpha had asked me to do it or why he found me worthy to conquer a beast. But I had no choice. To run would only mean putting my family in danger. So lik
"How long are you going to remain like a statue?" Henry chirped but I still froze regardless. I kept staring at him in awe and disbelief. After so many years, here he was. Before me, wearing a cheerful countenance on his black outfit as if nothing disastrous had happened between us. As if he didn't disappear for centuries.He took the bold step, gingerly walking towards me till he stood barely inches away from me. His face still retained it's attractiveness like I remembered, but they also beheld suffering he's probably endured over the years. His hair had a slight trace of gold strand on closer look, one I once used to run my fingers through. I still maintained my frozen status regardless. His smile deepened and then he gently wrapped his arms over me. Holding me firm in his cold embrace.My breaths ceased and my eyes twitched. I was hoping to find comfort in his embrace like the old times but nothing was forthcoming from his cold body.They weren't like Zeus. Warm and endearing.I h
"Remember the days when we used to row?"Henry asked in a tone blooming of faint excitement as we walked side by side across the lake. I simply nodded as I stared across the waters reflecting the clouds' evening shade. It was gentle as always, with the ducks paddling peacefully and the air silent and warm. It reminded me of old memories and rather than smile, sadness dawned in me again."We were bad at it compared to Martha..." He continued."She was a monster at it and no matter how we tried, even when we cheated, she remained the best." We both chuckled reminiscing on good old times. Times when we were naive and free of life's ugly fate."I wonder where she is now..." He mumbled with a light sigh following suit and my tiny smile gradually faded. I suddenly lost the interest to walk and rather stare at the ducks paddling."She's happy." I mumbled in a weak tone. "With her mate somewhere.""But you don't seem happy about it." He noted."I don't like that look on your face." He respond
"Zeus..."Her voice sounded faintly."Zeus!" She pitched again. "Zeus! Zeus!!" She screamed in a voice that hid not her pain, I could hear her sobs, I could feel a divine bond between this lady and I. I could recall her smile, those green eyes, those rosy red lips that I could never resist. Yet, it felt like she was a total stranger to me. She felt so close to me yet so far away. Who was this lady? Who was I? And what was this darkness surrounding me?"Zeus!!" She screamed again and my body shuddered to life immediately. Warm breaths escaped my nostrils sharply, my chest heaved in an upward and downward manner, my muscles were constricting and expanding, I could feel slight aches rage across my body and my eyes faintly responded to the bright light gracing the room. Although my vision was still hazy and I still had no memory of myself, something felt awfully familiar about this room."Don't do this to me Zeus!" She cried again and like lightning, my memories came flashing before me. M
