AthenaTill we reached close to the mansion, I was a whole different person. It was debate whether I even remembered my own name, however, I did not have to be told twice that I still knew each and every syllable of someone's name and that someone was none other than my mate whose anger hadn't lessened even the slightest bit yet he kept me cradled to his chest like some precious belonging that needed to be protected."You are strange," I murmured burying my head into his chest, "You try to act like someone you are not but always end up leaving clues to the one you are in reality, but for some reason, try to enforce others to believe what you pretend to be in real life. Everything about you is so strange, but I still can't stop loving you.""If you were not this drunk, I'd whip some senses into your head," His voice was not as harsh as it always had been, "You have completely lost your mind.""No, I haven't," I mustered, "I'm telling you my feelings."" I don't want to hear about your
AthenaSebastian's fists balled up to his sides, his breathing picked up an unusual pace and lust flared in his eyes, but he remained still, unmoved and tied with invisible restraints."Athena, Just go and change." He let out, dominance dripping from his tone. I could not fathom why he was so reluctant in touching me today. He never acted like this, for a person whose only way to any sort of calm was my body, it was strange how he was acting today but the reason was still unknown. "What has happened to you? Is your dick broken?" I frowned, a look of disappointment spreading over my face.His face reddened with anger and undeniable frustration I have been putting him through this entire time."Go and change." He ordered, strictly."You know what you are not a coconut, the name was too cute for a rude, arrogant, jerk like you," I spat, my anger surely could have competed with the amount of his rage, "You are a Gorilla. A stupid Gorilla.""What did you just say?" He looked beyond pisse
Sebastian'I love you'—Her words echoed inside of my head over and over again in a continuous, never-ending loop, wiping any traces of sleep away from my eyes, keeping me wide awake for obvious reasons I tended to avoid.It felt weird to hear those words in repeat.Why did she love me after everything I have done to her? How could she still try to love me and bring me back from where I preferred to stay?I wanted the darkness, then why was she trying to drag me to face the light where she hoped would prevail an escape for both of us? It was hate that she was supposed to feel for me, not the love she was surging over me every day and every second.I glanced down at her, hearing the faint sound of her relaxed breathing as she slept on top of me. I knew she was sleeping because the only time she remains this unguarded was when she was asleep, other than that, it'd always be her trying to stay careful with every little thing, every small movement she makes or even breathing and making a s
AthenaWhen I woke up, I found myself tucked under the duvet.Yawning, I stretched my hands over my head and sat up. A sudden invisible force attacked my head from all sides, forcing my body to fall on the surface of the bed, however, that did not happen as the memories from last night came flooding inside of my mind like a tsunami but somehow inexact and glitched.I'd gone to the party with Sebastian...But what happened after that?The glitched memories kept flashing in front of my eyes until my mind acknowledged the entire event.I almost got raped yesterday...Chills of terror ran down my body, I felt sick to my stomach even at the thought of that guy being near me.Calm down. You are safe, he saved you.I blew out a sigh of relief when the thought of Sebastian murdering Chris crossed my reminiscence.For the first time, the thought of somehow being dead was providing me comfort; Made me feel safe and secure.My eyes glanced around the room in search of any sign of Sebastian but n
Sebastian"Show me the CCTV footage of yesterday," I told Pete who immediately ordered one of his guards to bring his laptop.They worked fast, wary about their movements as I have already let them know that I was more than willing to kill them if they fail to give me the right information. So, it was either do or die for them, although my situation was not so stable as well. The argument with Athena has left me and my beliefs shaken. She fucked me up pretty badly, and my last statement before I exited the room, did the same thing to her in return. I'd seen it in her eyes— I have broken her."Alpha, here's the footage." David opened the video, connecting the laptop to the big monitor for a better view."Speed it up." I barked, tapping the ash of the cigar on the ashtray beside me as I fixated my eyes on the screen, to be very specific, my mate.There was no question that a werewolf's eyes will miss any of the odd changes or even the slightest movements that did not go with the situat
CelineI waited for the phone to ring for a solid twenty minutes until it finally rang, breaking the burdening silence of the room.I quickly received the call, hoping to hear the news I have been waiting for, "Hello. Has he left yet?""It took a bit of work, but yeah, he left." The response from the other side made me finally release the breath I did not know I had been holding on to for so long.Finally....It was a relief that the plan was finally working and he was coming out of his cold facade. Although it was still not sure if this change of one night was going to be permanent. Sebastian was absolutely capable of holding himself together till the last bit, nothing could be comparable to how strong he was when it came to pushing away everything he has, to hold onto something he doesn't want to let go.If there was anything he truly treasured from the bottom of his heart, that was his curse and now, perhaps, it was Athena who undoubtedly held more importance to him."He's coming t
AthenaHe slowly closed the door, surprisingly not with a loud slam like all the other times. Something about him felt strange, at first, I could not identify it but when the smell of strong liquor hit my nose I finally realised why his movements were slightly unsteady. He was drunk. Alcohol and cigars were a part of his daily life, it was no surprise for me to smell alcohol from him, however, today he looked a bit too consumed by the effects of the liquor.His movements were barely collected. Deep down I was expecting the worst. Sebastian's arrival has never brought any good news for me. From the very first day, he stepped into my life, everything has been a living nightmare for me, that I wanted to escape so badly but failed every time.Perhaps, if someone else had brought me from the auction, things could have been even worse than this but, at the very least, I wouldn't have to live with the fact that it was my own mate who left no levels to stoop in order to hurt me, put me thr
AthenaHe kissed me as if his life depended on it, within every caress of his tongue against mine, he was awakening some new within me. I didn't know the start or the end, all I was aware of was the fact that I was absolutely engrossed in everything he did. I truly loved this man, and yes, if it did make me pathetic for being in love with the man who has left no bounds to hurt me, behaved like a monster and was a heartless being who did not care about anyone but him, I did not care. I was not in the state to consider anything at all.Sebastian's one request has thrown all my beliefs, my decisions, my hopes and dreams, every negative and positive thing in my mind here and there, like a cluttered mess which I couldn't gather whilst my eyes were locked with ones. And the result? Here was I, under his captive like all the other times but the mere difference was, today, he was not here to cage me; He was here to free me from the same cage he'd put me in, and constantly build a new wall ar
