Sophia's POV

I woke up some time ago. Perseus and Achilles were not by my side, but that didn't worry me because Alex was in the room. Unlike before, I'm not tired, I don't feel any pain, and my mind is clearer than ever.

At this moment, I am looking out the window, observing the buildings below and the movement of the people. I've done this a few times because it's interesting to know that there are people who have no idea what's happening, that the world is changing, and that there are people protecting them so they don't get hurt.

I closed my eyes and let the sunrays warm me. I am at peace and have accepted my destiny. Knowing what I am is very different from being in the dark. No matter how complicated things are, I have a definitive answer about what I am.

"Sophia, are you okay?" I heard Alex's voice behind me.

I smiled and turned around, putting my hands in my pockets.

"I know, but it makes sense. Now I know what I am. I al

    Alex POVSince Sophia woke up and we had that revealing conversation, where I could see that she truly accepted who she was and what was happening, the balance between us began to flow more easily. I feel my wolf strengthening every day, and I realize I had never considered humans the way Sophia described. It makes perfect sense, as almost every race I have known or heard of has a human counterpart. Humans are incredibly versatile, which gives me confidence that Sophia will survive the rejection ritual.I'm not sure how much damage it will cause her and her companions, my Alpha and Beta, but I have faith that they will recover. And, honestly? Even after the rejection ritual, I will never abandon Sophia. I will always be her Gamma, her protector. Unlike Perseus and Achilles, my function is to protect my Luna from her own companions if necessary.This function did not arise by chance. For a long time, Alphas imprisoned their Lunas so that they would not be "tainted" with inappropriate t

    Sophia POVThe arrival at the beauty salon didn't take long, as it was close to the main building, but it was enough for many to be surprised to see me standing. However, it was a good surprise, as everyone smiled at me and made a brief bow.I believe my aura has changed a lot since I accepted my role and who I am. This has brought changes in how people see me, as clear as a cloudless day.Alex opened the salon door and everyone made a brief bow."Beta," the people said."Lu..." Angélica began to speak, but quickly changed.But for a second I looked at Angélica, she had started to say something else. Something that no one knew.'Calm down.' I mentally told Alex, as I know he wants to interrogate Angélica.I'm not sure if she started to call me Luna out of instinct, or if she already knows something, as she spent a lot of time in the main building, helping to organize the parade.Another thing I noticed was that no one noticed this detail.

    Perseus POVEveryone knows that in these last days I have been very unstable in my aura, and the explanation I gave was that I am very worried about Achilles and his mate. I still haven't gotten used to the fact that no one knows that Sophia is mine too, and now that we know what she is, I just want to scream to the world that I have found my mate too.Of course, I am dealing with this with Lucca. He, as my psychologist, is helping me better understand these feelings inside my chest and make the rational part keep up with the emotional.Regarding my jealousy, what helped was seeing that Sophia put some distance between her and Khalid, and that makes me happy. Rationally, I know that my mate would never betray me, but my emotional side is still trying to understand.Lucca said that this has a lot to do with the instinct that Alphas have to protect their mates, to think that she is theirs and this jealousy comes from that instinct.So when Sophia entered the office, with her new haircut

I can already feel the hair on my arms standing up; it's been a while since he last appeared in my room.I don't like this, and I can feel the hair on my arms and neck standing up, while my blood heats up. These are clear signs that jealousy is starting to take over.I took a deep breath, remembering Sophia's lips on mine, the warmth of her body against my hands, and the scent of her arousal invading my nose... All of this because she was with me, and I remembered her voice saying she loved me.I paused for two seconds before opening the door to the room. I found Sophia close to Khalid, holding his cell phone and looking at something. Whatever it was, it was making her happy, as her smile was unmistakable.

    Khalid POVEverything seemed to be in slow motion, as I initially couldn't understand how Sophia had the speed to place herself between me and Perseus. But I quickly realized she used the auras of Perseus and Achilles, combining them to become faster than either of us."NO!" I shouted, as I held Sophia's body, feeling her heart begin to stop beating. I had to fight against my spiritual side to keep from killing Perseus, but at that moment, we needed to help Sophia. I saw Alex running out of the cabin."THE HOSPITAL IS WAITING!" Alex shouted.Surely, the entire pack must have felt Sophia's pain at the moment of the blow, since she is connected to the Alpha and the Beta... And there's another aggravating factor: it was her companion who hurt her, which causes even more pain and makes the wound more severe.I concentrated the shadows around me, transforming them into tiny particles of sand, trying to recreate the paths of the veins and arteries that were cut, in a desperate attempt to ke

I got up, took a quick shower, brushed my teeth, did my business, then changed into a clean new uniform, fixed my badge and left the room.Soon I'm on the 42nd floor, the first thing I noticed is that some guards had changed shifts, as well as the doctor in charge. I arched an eyebrow at the updates next to the tablet I picked up at reception.“Hey Julie, good morning.” I greeted my friend.“Hi Soph, glad you’re back.” I heard her speak, relieved."Something happened?" I got tense, but I didn't take my eyes off the tablet, going through the information on each patient, it seemed that the majority that were there had not yet been released, it was because there was a trace of silver in the organism.“These people, you know…” Julie spoke in a low tone and I took a deep breath.They were the kind of people I hated,

    Sophia's POVI blinked several times, feeling my body aching, especially above my heart, it was a sensation as if there was a weight on it trying to crush me. I took deep breaths several times, trying to block out the pain.It wasn't easy to do this, because the sensation changed to feeling like a hand was wrapping around my heart and starting to squeeze, wanting to explode it. The force used was extreme, but I wasn't going to give up so easily.Then I felt another hand on top of mine, and gradually the pain disappeared, and I could breathe better. Finally, I could fully open my eyes and saw that Alex was by my side. It was he who helped me overcome this challenge."Are you feeling better, Luna?" Alex asked, concerned.I rolled my eyes at him calling me by my title."I've told you that you can call me Sophia." I replied and saw him smile.Honestly? If I wasn't hopelessly in love with Perseus and Achilles, I would definitely have gotten closer to Alex."If you're smiling like that and

Perhaps in this incarnation she is human, which is why she is so fragile.I stepped back and let Perseus put her to bed. I took a deep breath, knowing that my conversation with him would not be pleasant, but I wanted to do it now, in this place, because I knew he would have to control himself or it could affect Soph."Perseus, you need to take care of yourself... Deal with this jealousy you feel." I spoke in a normal tone, without letting my aura grow.I saw him close his eyes and his hands tremble as he stood up to look at me."I can't be as cold as you!" Perseus said through gritted teeth, moving away from Soph. "How can you be like this? Didn't you see the way they looked at each other?"I took a deep breath; Perseus seemed like a child, and this was becoming unbearable. Soph wouldn'
