Sophia POVFinally, one of the most awaited days is happening. The day has dawned full of festivities and I can feel something different in the air, all this joy is contagious and I see all the employees smiling, talking and joking more.I'm happy that something like this is possible and that many have opened their eyes to the fact that previous thinking was archaic and that accepting the new isn't a bad thing. Of course, I know there are a few protests going on, but they are tiny compared to the festivities.I had ordered a wonderful dress, it has a V-neckline, but with a corset to support my breasts and make them more contoured, with slightly thicker straps, a small ribbon around the waist and a pinker skirt with an opening on the left leg. What's most striking is the print, which is in the watercolor style with the colors of the rainbow.I asked them to do a very colorful make-up on my face, adding glitter to bring out the colors and make it look very festive. Hyperion had selected
Sophia POVI can feel the pressure of the auras increasing as I get closer to the party room, Alex is by my side and that makes me feel calmer, because I know that if necessary he'll use his skills to help me during this party. I know it won't be a problem if I leave before then, but I have to stay until the scheduled time for Achilles to pass out. I took a deep breath before entering the room, the doors are closed, precisely to contain the auras of the people there, the food and drinks were already inside.'It's going to be all right.' I heard Perseus' voice in my mind.Surely they must sense how nervous I am, I smiled more calmly, happy for this little message. It's very difficult for my mates to do something like this, precisely because we expend a lot of energy, since I'm not connected to the pack and I don't what they call mentally message with the others, just and only with them and it's very rare.'Thank you.' I replied, concentrating on sending that message.I can feel an eve
Sophia POVI could hear people stirring, many were calling for the doctor and there was already a team there, including Dr. Ioannidis who was leading the way. Lucca laid me down on the floor carefully, while I relaxed more, letting my breaths become longer.I think someone could give me an Oscar for my performance, but it's a good thing the doctor already knew about our plan. Precisely because my breathing was slower, I knew that my heartbeat was too, I had practiced this since the plan to make Achilles faint was made."NOW!" I hear Hayden's shout.I can feel the gigantic increase in auras, at the same time as the noise of transformation and the sound of fighting spread."Hayden!" Lucca called out, as his aura increased, trying to make a bubble around me.This time my breathing really started to get heavier, as I struggled to open my eyes, then the taste of blood invaded my mouth and I swallowed, knowing it was the blood of Achilles and Perseus.This gave me the strength to stand up a
Achilles POVNote: This chapter takes place at the same time as the partyAs soon as we left the room, I had to hold back my urge to take Perseus' hand and intertwine our fingers, because I feel more and more bonded to him. I see him looking at me with the same desire as mine.It's getting harder and harder not to show it whenever we're in the same environment, which happens a lot, and yet people have noticed that Perseus and I are getting closer.I can hear the whispers, feel the emotions of those around us and many are happy about this, because it means that the pack is stronger, the greater the bond between Alpha and Beta, the stronger we are.As soon as we get on the electric trio I notice all eyes turning to us, the cameras, the reporters and the whole crowd. Lots of shouts, lots of emotions, there's a lot of happiness in the air.I smile, pleased to see how much Sophia has changed the pack in such a short time, all of this is only happening because we know her, because this wond
Perseus POVIt's getting increasingly difficult to resist the urge to wrap Sophia in my arms and take her... Just as itโs becoming harder to ignore the attraction I feel towards Achilles. This desire only grows stronger, and a large part of me doesn't want to fight it.Itโs as if I want to blow everything up and simply mark them both, to show the world that I have two mates and that nothing else matters. I stopped for a few seconds near the elevator door, taking deep breaths to control these instincts.It took me a few moments to finally extinguish that flame in my heart, and I put on a serious expression as we walked towards the place where the electric trio will be. I see people giving us a brief bow, and many are happy.This feeling is very good because I know Iโm on the right path for the changes the pack needs, even though there are some who still havenโt accepted it. Those voices will be heard, but any physical, mental, or social attack will be met with firmness and justice.Weโ
Note: This chapter returns to normal time.Alex POVI always knew Sophia was strong, but I couldn't have imagined it at the level I saw. The way she used Boreas' ability to manipulate her emotions and let out only what she wanted.I was fooled, as soon as I felt her fear so palpable, it almost made me turn and advance against the enemies, but her gaze was direct and it was the only thing that made me stop and trust her.I won't deny the shock I felt when I saw her raise a firearm and shoot Hayden. No one expected anything like that and in the next movement to kill two more enemies, the aura she exuded was intense, as she stood with her head held high, shoulders straight, a regal posture.At that moment it became clear that she was a true Luna, there is a respect that spreads through everyone who is present and I feel that respect spreading through the pack, everyone who was watching the news knew not to mess with Sophia.The woman has many tricks and she will use them to win her battles
Sophia's POVI blinked a few times, trying to make sense of something. My head was spinning, and at the same time, I could hear voices in the background, agitated, but I couldnโt understand what was being said. My body ached, especially my chest, there was a weight that felt different, something that made me feel sick. My breathing became labored, and I let out a low groan. I tried to bring my hand to my chest to see if I could remove that weight.A part of me knew that this was an irrational action, that this weight wasnโt something physical that I could grasp, but still... I simply didnโt know if I could continue carrying such a thing. Iโm not someone who cries, but I could feel tears starting to run down the corners of my eyes because I had no control over my actions. It was so hard to move, to breathe, and I couldnโt even open my eyes.It was terrifying because the voices grew louder, and I needed to understand what was being said. Instinctively, I knew it was about me, and if the
Khalid POVFeelings are treacherous. I always believed I had absolute control over them, that I could keep them at bay, like a hunter observing prey without ever getting caught. I was wrong. I never thought that, after so long, I could still be shaken by someone. Especially by a human. But Sophia is not just any human. From the first moment I saw her, I sensed something different about her, something that sparked in me a curiosity bordering on obsession. At first, it was just that: curiosity. How could a human be destined for two powerful Lycans like Perseus and Achilles? How could she survive this fate without succumbing to the weight she carried?But over time, that curiosity evolved into something more, something I should never have allowed to grow. And then, seeing her succumb to the curse, a tightness gripped my chest, bringing forth a despair I thought I had overcome centuries ago. I, who have lived so many lives, who have witnessed countless tragedies and triumphs, never imagin
Sophia POVBut from this chaste kiss, a new emotion began to take hold. I felt Perseus's hands on my back, and my skin tingled at the mere touch of his firm, warm fingers, tracing invisible paths on my skin. It was as if electricity pulsed between us. I slightly parted my lips, surrendering to the moment, and my Alpha soon took control of my mouth, as if he had been waiting for this silent invitation.Our tongues began to intertwine with speed, with force, with a hunger that could no longer be contained, while he made me suck in his air to breathe better. But there was a different fire, something beyond simple lust, something that began to consume me from within, because I wanted much more than just this kiss that burned like embers in my mouth.I took my hands from the back of his neck and slid them down to his shirt, feeling the muscles beneath the fabric, desperately wanting to remove it, because all I could think about was how his skin would feel against mine. I could already feel
Sophia's POVI parted my lips and felt air rushing into my lungs, and it was like breathing for the first time. My skin tingled, every nerve seeming to wake from a deep sleep, as if it had been imprisoned for ages. My chest rose and fell slowly, heavily, but filled with a warmth I didnโt recognize, it wasnโt the heat of fever or exertion... It was different, exotic, and complex...I opened my eyes and blinked several times as the light hurt them. Colors and shapes began to form in front of me as I raised my hands to shield some of the brightness. I felt my muscles stretch; the sensation was strange, not painful, not tingling, something entirely new. My whole body was lying against the marble floor.But I could understand: everything was new because this body had just been born, and I would need to get used to it. I saw my hand in front of my eyes, and the first thing I noticed was that my skin tone hadnโt changed, I was still fair-skinned. My fingers were slightly longer.In the backg
Sophia POVAs soon as I opened my eyes, I found myself in a gigantic space, so vast that I couldn't fully comprehend its size. It was as if I were an astronaut seeing the Earth from afar.I realized that as my mind adapted to this new dimension, things began to make sense. Walls of clay appeared, along with various doors and stairs. Many of the doors were already broken, with some pieces still hanging, but many parts had fallen to the floor where the door should have been. I also noticed broken chains.I walked to the nearest door and looked through the space where the door should have been. I noticed green smoke filling the room. I shivered, understanding what it meantโeach door represented a creature I should have had, but which was now taken by the Mother of Monsters.My heart tightened as I looked around and saw so many broken doors, so many shattered chains, each representing a part of my soul that had been taken. Sadness began to set in, as many creatures would never see the lig
Sophia POV"You are a Chimera." Nina spoke again, in a gentler tone, like a kind teacher explaining to a child how things work. "Changing your appearance is not simple."Nina's words changed the atmosphere in the room again. Everyone fell silent, absorbing the weight of that statement. Achilles approached me, as if he could protect me from the truths that were about to come. Khalid just watched, with a serious expression."Alright, I understand." I said and felt Achilles hugging me from behind, his hands passing around my waist, a silent form of comfort. "Continue.""A Chimera is composed of several beings, several animals, mythological or not." Nina explained.And then she looked me up and down, analyzing every aspect of me, both physically and my soul, and I noticed a touch of melancholy in her eyes."And you have lost several since we first met." Nina explained.I felt a pang of pain in my chest, as I knew that meant I had died in agony each time one of those creatures left. Nina n
Sophia POVNina turned with the same grace that always surrounded her, her movements smooth like a silent dance. Her eyes landed on Alexandre, and to his surprise, her expression remained serene, unaltered, as if the words he had just spoken were no more than part of a trivial conversation.Alex was not prepared for such tranquility. The lack of reaction completely disarmed him, and I could see insecurity take over his features. Even his wolf, which had been animated and even aggressive, retreated inside him, as if shrinking before Nina's calm. All the aggressiveness that had emanated from him dissolved into the air."Interesting." Khalid said with a low laugh.Nina looked at him, and for a brief moment, I saw a subtle smile on her lips, but then she turned back to Alexandre again."My name is Alexandre." Alex introduced himself, almost stammering."I remember your presence in our laboratory." Nina replied, her voice maintaining a neutral tone.Alex nodded, not daring to speak. Nina's
Sophia POVKhalid nodded at my response. There was no questioning, no questions, and certainly no doubts, only understanding and acceptance. And that brought me a peace I didn't know I needed.This had always been my bond with Khalid, long before he became my mateโฆ The vampire understood me on a different level from Achilles and Perseus, but that didn't mean something would happen between us.I had never thought of betraying my mates, I had never thought of Khalid as anything more than a good friend, only now, feeling the attraction of the bond, I started to feel this way, never before."When do you want this change?" Khalid asked me, his voice now carrying a more sensual tone, something I hadn't noticed before."As soon as possible!" I replied without needing to think much about it.I felt Achilles's body tense up, and I turned my head to look at him."You just woke upโฆ" Achilles explained. "I don't want to put you in another comaโฆ Your body is under a lot of stress."I sighed and he
Sophia POVI feel a shiver run down my spine with that phrase, something I didn't know was possible, because there's a different tone, it's not like Khalid telling me I'm an object, it was differentโฆIt was acceptance, certainty, as if, by calling me that, he was recognizing something beyond the physical, beyond desire, beyond the blood that pulses in our veins.He didn't see me as a possession, but as part of something ancient, sacred.My Shi. A phrase that meant our souls were connectedโฆMaybe that's how I should have felt from the beginning with Achilles and Perseus, but I was different back then, I didn't know about this world and had to learn about everythingโฆIt's not that the connection between me and Khalid is stronger, but it's differentโฆ And this difference is glaringโฆ Because Achilles and Perseus had to fight from the start to win me overโฆThey were the ones who taught me about the Bond, the Balance, and what it means to be a mate, and in this difference, there's an added w
Sophia POVWaking up should be easy, but honestly? In my current state, it's not. My whole body aches, as if needles are penetrating my muscles, and I let out a groan of pain. But that only worsens the situation, as my head starts spinning, even with my eyes closed.I took deep breaths several times to try and make the sensation go away, until I felt my hands being held. The touch is gentle and loving, and I can feel the sparks of destiny taking effect, spreading through my wrists and up my arms, easing my pain.After a few seconds, I managed to blink a few times before focusing my gaze. I know I should pay attention to Achilles and Perseus, but what catches my attention is a completely different smell.It's a strange mixture, dark yet warm at the same timeโฆ It's like black amber, with myrrh, mixed with the dry heat of the desert at sunset, where the sand still holds the warmth of the sun, but the air begins to cool. There's a subtle scent of dried earth after rain, rare and sacred, m
Achilles POV"Shut up!" I yelled at the illusion, my voice reverberating through the space like a furious thunderclap.I turned abruptly to Perseus, my breathing heavy, and without hesitation, I raised my hand, slapping him across the face. The sharp crack of the impact echoed through the place, my Alpha widened his eyes, surprised not only by the blow but by the intensity of my gaze that openly challenged him."I know you better than anyone, Perseus, and I know you're not like this! You're not a monster!" I exclaimed."This is the second time I've put her in a hospital!" Perseus shouted, his voice filled with anger and despair.He pushed me hard, but my feet remained firm on the ground. His strength could have knocked me down, but I wouldn't back down."Next time she might not survive!" I said with determination. "And will you allow there to be a third time?"My voice came out cold as ice, sharp as a blade. I watched the red mark of my fingers begin to form on his face, standing out
