FATED TO THE WOLF GOD -55-
*Meanwhile in her realm* |ORION| I clenched my fists, trying to control my anger as I stared at Astraea’s unconscious body laid out on the bed while the healers treated her. Bruises marred her arms, and her pale skin was a clear sign of how long she had been immersed in water. “What is it? Why isn’t she up yet?” I demanded, my voice tight with frustration and fear. “I’m afraid she’s in a coma, Sire,” one of the healers responded softly. I growled, the sound reverberating through the room as Raeya tried to calm me down. This would have never happened if I didn’t have so much to do. I would have been able to watch her. “She’s fine, she’s safe here with us,” Raeya said soothingly, placing a hand on my arm. “Safe? What do you mean safe? Do you know how much can happen in a coma? She could fucking die, Raeya!” I snapped, my voice rising in anger. Raeya flinched at my aggression, but I wasn’t sorry. I was furious with myself for leaving her unattended and allowing her to get hurt. I

|ASTRAEA| “You're wasting time.” I gasped as I found myself in a meadow, this time around it wasn't just the veiled goddess. They were three. The first being was a god, with dark hair and onyx eyes. He had a slight resemblance to Orion but a very stark contrast. He was dressed in a nice outfit that seemed like it was meant for a special occasion. The second was a goddess, her hair was blonde and she had grey eyes. Her face looked calm and collected and I stared down at her arms, her protruding belly sticking out. She was pregnant. And the third one, of course, was the veiled goddess. She looked the same as I had always seen her. “You are wasting time.” The god repeated and my attention snapped to him. The goddess stared at him, “Arien, you'll scare her.” Arien. That was his name. He stared at the goddess, who stood on the other side of the veiled goddess away from Arien’s reach. His face contorted to a look of helplessness as if he couldn't reach her. “W-what do you mean?” I

ASTRAEA| I was hit. The blood pooled out of my knee, and my breathing became heavier. “At this rate, you should just get adapted to life here because you’ll never return.” I growled in anger, getting up on my feet and running towards her. My sword appeared in my hand, and I jumped mid-air, clashing my sword with hers. The impact sent a shockwave through my arms, but I held my ground, pushing against her with all my strength. She smirked, her eyes gleaming with malice. “Is that all you’ve got, Astraea?” she taunted, effortlessly deflecting my attack and swinging her blade towards my side. I twisted my body just in time, narrowly avoiding the strike. The pain in my knee flared, but I refused to let it slow me down. I parried her next blow and countered with a quick slash aimed at her shoulder. She blocked it, but the force of my attack made her take a step back. “You’re stronger than you look,” she admitted, her smirk fading into a serious expression. “But strength alone won’t sav

|ASTRAEA| I returned back to Kallias’ palace. I could never get used to this, to the fact that in this universe he was my mate. I hadn't seen him all day so I tried to enter his chambers but the guards blocked the door with their spears. My brows furrowed in annoyance. “What is this about?” The guards avoided my gaze and I tried to get through. “Please, return Princess. The Sire does not wish to see you.” “Well I don't look like a wish fairy, and I don't remember asking for permission. Step aside, or face the consequences. Trust me, you don't want to see me angry." The guards stared at each other and I used that opportunity to slam my fist into the left guard making him hit the other guard as they collapsed to the floor. My blood boiled as I pushed the door open, walking into the chamber searching for Kallias. I stepped into the I stepped into the dimly lit room, my eyes scanning the familiar surroundings. Kallias stood at his desk, his posture rigid, his hand hidden from view

|ASTRAEA| In the quiet of the palace chambers, surrounded by the familiar faces of my family, I gathered the courage to speak the words that weighed heavily on my heart. "I'm not here to stay," I whispered softly, my voice barely above a whisper.Their smiles, though weak, spoke volumes of their understanding. "We know," my father replied, his voice filled with a quiet resignation that tugged at my heartstrings.As I gazed at them, taking in their slightly weathered faces and the subtle signs of aging that marked the passage of time, a wave of disbelief washed over me. "How long have I been gone?" I asked, my voice trembling with shock."Two years," my mother's response was barely a whisper, but it hit me like a tidal wave, leaving me reeling from the realization of just how much time had passed in my absence.And then, the question I had been dreading hung heavy in the air, casting a shadow over our reunion. "W-what of Alan?" I ventured, the silence that followed deafening in it

ASTRAEA|As I walked away from Haiti, the throbbing in my head intensified, the voices growing louder and more insistent with each passing moment. It was as if a storm was raging inside my mind, threatening to consume me whole.Raeya noticed my distress and hurried to my side, concern etched on her features. "Astraea, are you alright?"I shook my head, trying to block out the voices that echoed in my mind. "I don't know what's happening. I keep hearing... things."Raeya's brow furrowed with worry as she placed a comforting hand on my shoulder. "We need to get you out of here, to somewhere quiet where we can figure out what's going on."With her support, I pushed through the crowd, the cacophony of voices and magic swirling around me like a whirlwind. Each step felt like a struggle, the weight of uncertainty pressing down on me with every breath.Finally, we found a secluded alcove away from the chaos of the festival. Raeya helped me sit down, her expression grave as she studied me int

ASTRAEA|I jolted awake, gasping for breath as I found myself in my chamber, disoriented and confused. How did I get here? The last thing I remembered was being with Kallias, his lips on mine, the intensity of his gaze searing through me.My heart raced as I struggled to make sense of what had just happened. Kallias... I couldn't shake the memory of his touch, his scent lingering in the air around me like a haunting whisper.“Asana,” I whispered, seeking solace in the familiar presence in my mind.‘I’m lost for words,’ Asana murmured, her tone reflecting the turmoil within me.Before I could gather my thoughts, the door burst open, and Eloise rushed into the room, her expression a mixture of shock and concern.She wasted no time in crossing the room, her footsteps echoing in the tense silence. With a swift motion, she slapped my back, the sting jolting me into awareness.“Seriously?” Eloise's voice was a mix of disbelief and reproach. “You were with Kallias! Do you know how Orion reac

|ASTRAEA|I never recognized anyone. Heck I never went anywhere that I had to recognize someone. They all looked the same to me in my fathers ball parties, I would always come, greet and return back to my chambers out of boredom.My heart thumped as I stated into the mesmerizing hues of the figure’s eyes."Who are you?" I demanded, my voice trembling with a mixture of fear and defiance.The figure chuckled softly, a melodic sound that echoed in the cold room. "Ah, you may not remember me, but I assure you, we are old acquaintances."My mind raced as I tried to place the voice, to recall any memories of this mysterious figure. But try as I might, my thoughts remained shrouded in darkness, the memories elusive and distant."Why have you brought me here?" I pressed on, my voice growing stronger with each word. "What do you want from me?"The figure's smile widened, revealing a glint of amusement in their eyes. "Oh, my dear Astraea, I have brought you here for a purpose—a purpose that wi
