Sophia POV

The two of them raised their heads and bowed briefly to Perseus and Achilles, Andreas' expression that of someone who doesn't know what to do.

"Relax." "I've never been a fan of this hierarchy stuff." I smiled and then looked at the screen, realizing that it was a plot of land seen from above, some houses had been destroyed, as well as the farms, the road that should come here and also a forest around it.

The more I look at those images, the more they seem familiar. It's not as if I've seen this before, but it's a feeling of déjà vu, that I've seen something like this before. I feel Perseus' hand on my back and he smiles.

"It's probably a side effect of what I saw." He told me. "That must be why it seems so familiar to you."

I nodded.

"If someone else had said something like that to me, I would have laughed," Andreas commented. "But you can see the three of you together. At first, when you came in, I found it strange, but just this little interaction lets you know that you'

    Sophia POV"Not that different." I cut him off. "For example, depending on the RPG you pick up, there are wizards, sorcerers, druids, bards and various classes that use magic. One of the things I find coolest is when there are paladins, after all, what's better than walking around with a symbol saying that the God you serve has given you powers? Officially." I smiled. "Anyway... What I mean is that I have a lot of experience in making plans to destroy a city or assassination attempts. At least in theory.""If you carry on like this, Andreas and Lilian will end up losing their post," Achilles said, laughing out loud."Hey!" Andreas said, but he also started laughing, and then took a deep breath. "But your analysis is correct, at least for the most part. Yes, we have some equipment for detecting magic, our scientists took a few years, but they managed to create it... We just don't have that many, because it's not something we like to publicize, and mass-producing equipment like that wou

  • Reborn from Ashes   Venting and acceptance

    Sophia POVI slipped my arm through Hyperion's and started walking towards the exit."See you later, we've got lots to do!" I said.I heard a low laugh from Andreas and Lilian, but the aura of my Alpha and Beta was complicated, it showed that they were proud, but also shocked by everything that had happened and the way I think.It shows how much I've evolved, how much I've changed... From the innocent girl to the woman I am now. I had already read that traumatic events are what make us mature more quickly, and this applies to both individuals and the collective.Wars always manage to make technology evolve much faster, whether on the medical or military side.The ride to the elevator was silent."Are you all right, Sophia?" Hyperion asked me."Um... I'm thinking about how I got here." I replied and smiled a little tiredly."Tell me, are you ever going to tell me what happened? Who is responsible for putting you in the hospital?" Hyperion asked sincerely."Yes, because now I know I'm g

    Sophia POVAfter a few minutes, Angelica calmed down enough and Hyperion then walked away, but first, he gave her a light kiss on the top of her head and handed her a white handkerchief that he had taken out of his pocket.Angelica then looked at me, turning red, probably ashamed of what had happened, but once again I smiled at her, to reassure her that I didn't judge her any less for expressing herself, but I'm glad I was able to get it off my chest.I hear a knock on the door and soon Hyperion opens it and the smell of meat spreads. I feel my mouth fill with water, Hyperion quickly serves me a plate and I start to eat, forgetting anything else around me.It's just perfect, with every piece of meat I feel stronger and the smell of things becomes more intense, as does the sound of their breathing.I think Hyperion said something to Angelica because I feel her presence disappearing from the meeting room, but I don't raise my head to make sure, I just keep eating. I think there were at

    Achilles POV"What happened?" I asked without understanding anything, but more relieved that Sophia was stabilized."I felt a very different aura coming from here, and I came as fast as I could," Khalid explained. "Alexander stayed in my lab, as soon as the results come back he'll let me know, but honestly? I don't think we need to wait that long."Khalid approached the bed."Better not clean it and let all the blood be absolved." Khalid sighed. "I felt a very strong magical aura coming from the room, you may not have noticed it, but it was certainly emanating from Sophia. What happened?""She told the story of when she met a man and sure enough, he was her fated mate... She even said that he smelled delicious." Perseus summarized."So, remember the theory about Sophia having a witch's organ? I think that's it, I don't know if it was deliberate or not. The human world is different and since I haven't been able to find out where her surgery took place, there's no way I can investigate

    KhalidWhen I took this job, I was curious about how it was possible for werewolves to have more than one mate. I'm very old, and I've seen it happen with other races, and they were usually extremely strong races.The last time I recall this happening with werewolves was with one of the ancient Kings, who was a Lycan. He was the last Lycan alive... He reigned for a long time and was murdered by his peers who were jealous of his power. When he lost his mates, he gave up on his will to live and became vulnerable. He was easily defeated.There are stories in my library about dragons having more than one mate, but now they're practically extinct. The possibility of Sophia being a dragon is non-existent, and so I looked for other options.Each possibility is just as extraordinary as the last. Feeling her aura, practically a hammer blow to the transplant theory... But there's another one, which is much worse, and I don’t think that they're prepared to deal with it.My instincts are that Sop

  • Reborn from Ashes   One conversation, one request

    Khalid - Three days laterSomething unexpected has happened. Both Perseus and Achilles have gone into hibernation with Sophia.The intensity of their energy transfer has increased significantly, causing Sophia's weakness to interfere with their bodies.Even though Alexander brought the results from the lab, the information was inconclusive. There was a very strong interference with Sophia's blood, which caused even my very high-tech and magical lab to not be able to identify her DNA and give a more in depth analysis. Another indication leaning towards the theory that a curse has been placed on Sophia. Another side effect is that Alexander's aura has grown as well, which makes sense due to the fact that he is Luna's Gamma in the pack and that it is his duty to protect her.Due to Alexander being connected to all three in different capacities, he's still benefiting from the situation. Seeing as Sophia is in hibernation, it would be obvious that Alexander's power would increase to ensur

  • Reborn from Ashes   In the middle of the road

    Sophia POVI'm in a different and strange place.. I don't understand and I can't make sense of it... I know it's not natural, or at least, I don't think it is... It could possibly just be my imagination. My logic tells me that I'm in a coma.I know that there are several reports of supernatural encounters while in this state, but to me, it always seemed to be the imagination of someone who wants to give meaning to something we can't explain.The difference is that now I know that Gods and supernatural creatures and beings exist. This is causing a war in my mind as my rational self and the atheist part of me doesn't want to accept this fact so easily. I am finding it more and more undeniable the longer I'm here. I feel myself drifting to a very far and distant place, my body growing colder the further I go. I know that I will reach a place where I will no longer be able to turn back.It's tiring to keep fighting because I've already suffered so much and this whole situation with Ac

    Sophia POV"What happened?" I ask confused. My mind is scrambled. I don’t even remember anything from the last time I was awake."You slept for five days." I hear Khalid's voice say.I turned the rest of the way to see him.'That time. The voice.’ I thought and tilted my head to the left."There's something..." I whisper. I close my eyes and take a deep breath, feeling a twinge a little further back, near the top of my head.I know where it is... The lower left parietal lobe... Near, but not near where the memories are stored."Sophy..." Perseus' voice calls me and I open my eyes to look at him.He has a handkerchief in his left hand, which he hands to me. Only then do I realize that my nose is running."I've prepared a little potion to help you recover," Khalid says, approaching me and holding out a small vial of red liquid for me to take."Minor life potion, 1d4 life," I said with a low laugh and took the vial from him.I drank it all down in one gulp. It really does taste like bloo

    Sophia POVAchilles broke the kiss when both of us were already out of breath, but he descended his mouth along the side of my face, distributing kisses until he reached my neck, and there I felt an even greater shiver every time he grazed his teeth against the sensitive skin.In sync, Perseus gave a light bite to my left nipple, which made me moan even louder, while my entire body heated up. I brought my hand to Perseus' head and pressed it against my breast, while the other went behind, between me and Achilles, and I began to caress his hard dick.In response, Achilles pressed his teeth harder against my neck and I rolled my eyes, feeling an indescribable pleasure."Imagine when I can mark you." Achilles whispered and bit the tip of my ear."It will be wonderful." I replied automatically, because I'm sure it's the truth.Perseus moved his mouth away and Achilles held my face."Open your eyes wide." Achilles whispered, and then I looked at Perseus.My Alpha began to undress, I saw hi

    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

  • Reborn from Ashes   A New Form

    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 didn’t recognize, it wasn’t 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 hadn’t changed, I was still fair-skinned. My fingers were slightly longer.In the backg

  • Reborn from Ashes   The Ritual Two

    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 meant—each 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 mate… 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 up…" Achilles explained. "I don't want to put you in another coma… Your body is under a lot of stress."I sighed and he

  • Reborn from Ashes   The Awakening Two

    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 different…It 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 connected…Maybe 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 everything…It's not that the connection between me and Khalid is stronger, but it's different… And this difference is glaring… Because Achilles and Perseus had to fight from the start to win me over…They 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

  • Reborn from Ashes   The Awakening

    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 time… 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
