Athena was bored sitting on the bed all day. Everyone left Dominic's mansion long ago, including Dominic himself. Now she was alone in the house. Even Ace left with Justin and Patricia. They took her to the park to play with other kids.
And Suzanne… only she knew how she convinced her best friend to not ask any questions regarding anything. She had to promise Suzanne to tell her everything until the right time comes. Though she didn't know when the right time might come, that time wasn't it for sure.The answer of Suzanne's question was going to mess things up more than it already was. She couldn't afford that until she got a hold of the situation again and got everything under control. Until then she has to be really careful.She let out a sigh and walked down the bed. She recovered really fast this time even though she doesn't have her wolf with her. She knew it was the mate bond which was helping her recover so fast.The mate bond…."Shh! Shh! Calm down, calm down. Everything is okay. Everything is alright. Calm down." Dominic whispered in a soothing tone as he pulled back from the kiss and pressed her head on his chest. She was slowly calming down with the rhythm of his heartbeat. But she was still breathing hard but she was back from the previous state which almost took Stacey's life. Her eyes widened as soon as she realised what was happening and she jerked away from him. She looked around in confusion and a small panic settled inside her. But before it could consume her completely, he clutched her shoulders again and made her look at him. He had a serious look on his face as he looked down at her intensely. "Wh... what just happened? Wh... what's going on?" She asked in shock and confusion. She could still feel the previous changes in her body and it was scary for her. "Nothing. Everything is fine. Don't worry. Calm down." Dominic said in an assuring tone but she wasn't having it. She frowned at him de
"Beautiful, isn't it?" Dominic asked in a soft yet husky tone as he found her sitting and looking at his red rose garden in total astonishment. His soft tone was sounding very foreign to his own ears but he didn't put much thought into it."Very." She replied while caressing the roses softly without removing her eyes from the beautiful roses. Her tone and posture was calm, so different from what it was a few minutes ago. As if the red roses did its magic on her as well and calmed her down like it works on Dominic. "Why is this part of the garden forbidden?" She suddenly asked, breaking the silence. She didn't look up yet but his next set of words forced her to look up at him with widened eyes."Because of you." He answered while looking at her intensely as if waiting for her to look up and meet his eyes."Because of me? How?" She asked in utter confusion as she looked back at the roses for a second before looking back at him. He didn't show any expression on his face as he slowly sat d
Dominic was looking at Athena's sleeping face with a blank look on his face. His eyes weren't blinking even for a second as he drank in her beauty and got lost in her flawless face. She looked like a baby as she slept. She was tired and getting exhausted pretty easily because of the loss of connection with her wolf. Also the thing that happened with Stacey and all exhausted her a lot. She dozed off out of nowhere in the garden as they sat there in silence without talking and enjoying the moment. After she fell asleep, her head fell on his shoulder. That made him feel like the most right thing in the world. He sat there for a long time in that position until he realised that it might be uncomfortable for her. Then he picked her up bridal style and walked back to their-...his bedroom and placed her back on the bed. But he still couldn't leave the room or her. More like he didn't want to leave, hence he didn't leave. Because just when he was going to leave, he felt someone pulling him
A boy around the age of eight was running as fast as his small legs could. He wasn't even looking back and was running with all the dedication and passion in the world while chanting only one thing in his mind. But he could still hear the sound of those beasts running behind him howling scarily.'I have to survive. I will not let them destroy me. I have to survive to take revenge. I will take revenge for everything that is taken away from me. I will return and take my revenge.'The more he reminds himself of those words, the faster his legs work in the dark night through the dangerous forest. He was running through the forest, cutting himself with the fallen branches here and there but he didn't care. He soon noticed the road and a smile came up on his face. He was now at the other side of the city, far enough from that burning fire. Now he is safe or he thought so.Soon a blaring sound came from his left and
"Hey, Athena! I am surprised to find you here!" Patricia exclaimed as soon as she saw Athena walking inside the pack house awkwardly while looking around subconsciously."H...hey, Patricia..." Athena greeted her softly, trying not to gain as much attention. But her plan ruined as soon as Patricia called her loudly from the big group she was sitting with.Patricia was sitting with a group of female pack members. They were generally chatting while playing cards. They were in a good mood as they all laughed around to something someone said when Athena came inside. There were six women in total, including Patricia and it seems like Patricia being the third in command, arranged a refreshing free time for those pack members."Athena? Why are you standing there? Come here! Join us. Come!" Patricia exclaimed while urging her to come and join them. The table went silent as soon as everyone noticed her and she felt more uncomfortable because of that. Everyone in that area was looking at her wit
The pack house was like a house of some festival. It was so loud at that moment, filled with loud laughter, happy cheers, bright smiles. Everyone present in the room had the feeling of happiness and contentment. Kids are patiently waiting for their cookies while doing the little tasks Athena assigned them with. The tasks were like designing the cookies as they pleased or maybe choosing flavours or colours. They were really happy to be engaged in this activity. Everyone was happy seeing the kids so happy and obedient for the first time. Because on some regular day, they are the real definition of little devils. The nannies and their parents have some real hard time controlling them at once. They always create havoc whenever they are together. They stay put only in front of their alpha. So, they must really like Athena to hear her words like pretty little angels! On the other hand, the women of the packs were having some nice time as well in helping Athena make the cookie. Other wom
Patricia successfully managed to get everyone guarding the basement out, using her lady in their in commands. Athena didn't have much time in hand. She quickly walked inside the dark and dangerous basement while making as little noise as she could. She wasn't much worried about getting caught because Patricia stood outside, guarding for her while she got her job done. She increased her pace while ignoring the foul stench of dried up blood and other foul smells. She ignored the howls of pain as the prisoners cried in the effect of the previous punishment session. She tried her best to not think about why they are being punished in the first place. She raised her nose up in the air and tried to locate his foul scent in the foul environment. It wasn't that hard for her to do that because she found it immediately. Because to her, his scent was the foulest. With a blank and down look on her face, she walked toward the end of the basement hallway. She reached the door soon and stood
IN DOMINIC'S BED ROOM"I am sorry, Suzy. I wanted to tell you before doing anything. I even looked for you everywhere but you didn't tell me you went out. I needed to go to the basement immediately and when everyone was busy, that was the perfect time to do that. I didn't want to lose that opportunity." Athena quickly explained herself to Suzanne as Patricia sat there silently. She didn't want to come between two best friends though she knew she belonged to that group as well now. "I am letting it slide for the last time but I have two conditions." Suzanne spoke up in a serious tone. Patricia and Athena shared a look before looking back at her with a frown. "What are they?" She asked in confusion, thinking of the things Suzanne might demand for."First, you are going to tell us everything. Why did you go there, what you found out till now, what you have been doing. Everything. And secondly, you are going to tell us everything you do from now on. Include us in everything. We are frien
