ATHENA'S POINT OF VIEWI called my dealer in Europe to send an invoice for the Brotelli diamond Sienna had ordered.It only made sense that she wanted the Brotelli diamond but why did she want the invoice? That was my Company's report. Even then, I didn't want any more drama from she or Scarlett Stone. Since she wanted to pay for it directly, she could have the invoice and the order report.My phone beeped that morning and I saw a message from Valerie, a new project had come up.I dialed her number immediately."Hello, I thought I said to shut down any projects until we were done with the Stones Contract?" I asked her over the phone."Yes ma'am I know but this order came in urgently and it is from a huge company. Only problem is that they ordered for twenty pieces of silver jewelry." She replied."Didn't you tell them we don't work with silver?" I aksed her. Humans were my only problem in this business. They found it weird that a jewelry company did not work with silver, and the orde
ATHENA'S POINT OF VIEWI got to the Stone Mansion early. I waited at the Greenhouse going through the remaining designs while I waited for the stone to be delivered. I got a call from my friend in Europe an hour before and he confirmed her payments and that he had sent the stone already.I spent about two hours trying to fit the minor stones we had purchased for the bracelets Sienna had requested for. Each work required precision and it took about ten minutes each to fit one diamond in place.About an hour later Sienna walked in with a box in her hand."The diamond has been delivered" she said. "I'm excited already, aren't you? Today is my engagement party and I am going to be wearing one of the most expensive diamonds in the world. Everything will fall in place tonight. It is so exciting" she squealed sauntering into the room gaily. She placed the wooden box on the table and opened it. The Stone was truly a masterpiece, it was even more beautiful than in pictures."Did you place an
SEBASTIAN'S POINT OF VIEWThrough out the engagement party, I wondered what Athena was doing. I wanted to be with her, spend some time with her instead of being trapped in a crowd with people I didn't want to be seen with.Everything proceeded smoothly, the security has covered the environment as I had ordered, even then I felt worried. My senses never lied when something was wrong. I walked through the maze outside hoping to catch some air and understand what was wrong. Then I saw the lights at the Greenhouse were still on. A smile came to my lips, she was still here, but the minute I thought of her, my heart skipped a beat. I walked towards the greenhouse, the door was ajar."Strange" I thought to myself. As I walked into the room, it was empty. There was food on the table and a glass of wine. The food looked untouched except for a small piece that had been removed.I picked up the glass and put it to my nose, just as fast, I took it away from my nose. "Damn! What was that smell?!"
ATHENA'S POINT OF VIEW I hadn't expected to wake up to the light of day again. After the previous night, everything had gone dark, the pain which coursed through me was evidence that I was going to die. The room looked dark because the curtains were closed. There were several bouquets of flowers on the table beside me and on the chair. My entire body hurt and my mouth was dry, my lips felt chapped and everything tasted and smelt like chemicals. I looked at the drip connected to my vein, "another chemical" I thought and threw my head back on the pillow. The door opened and a Doctor I recognized walked in. "Had Sienna brought me to the hospital?" I thought but that didn't sound right. Sienna hated me.Doctor Steve had a smile of relief on his face and I managed a slight grin which made my face hurt."You look like shit Athena. Thank God" it was an odd comment but I smiled at it because it came from a good place. Dr. Steve was the only one in the Stone family who had ever treated me wit
SEBASTIAN'S POINT OF VIEWIt was a crazy decision I had just taken but I knew it was a worthy one. I couldn't imagine losing Athena in this lifetime. I had just risked my family's alliance with Sienna's family but I was already sick of doing everything they wanted me to do. This was one sacrifice I couldn't just make. But why would Sienna even suggest I let Athena die? It all seemed kind of off, who poisoned her? Who took the drink and food to her? And dragged her to the Shed? Only few people had access to the Mansion's properties , so it had to be someone within the family.If I found out that Sienna or Scarlett had something to do with what happened to Athena, they wouldn't like my response.I drove down to the office even though Dr. Steve had warned me about stress. I was an Alpha wolf, I was going to be fine at the end of the day. Athena was all that really mattered to me. Mateo walked into my office almost immediately I sent for him."I need you to run a series of investigations
SEBASTIAN'S POINT OF VIEWIt took alot from me to stay calm, it was too soon to react, I needed more information to confirm these facts. It made complete sense but it was madness in its entirety. Only one thing could distract me and that was Athena. "Mateo" I called. "I want you to find more information on this, and get it to me as soon as possible" I said my eyes going blind with rage. I needed to see Athena, seeing her would make me calm.I got into the car and drove straight to the hospital. I picked up a bouquet of Madonna lilies outside the hospital and took them up to her room. I wasnt surprised to see her up and doing. She was no longer hooked up."Great recovery" I smiled and put the flowers down. She smiled a one sided smile and sat up."Thank you for saving me"she said looking up at me."Yeah " I shrugged."Why?" She asked and I looked down at her. "Why what?" I asked back "Why did you save me? Anybody could have donated that kidney to me but...you chose to do it . Why?"
SEBASTIAN'S POINT OF VIEW"What else did you find?" I asked Mateo quietly while we met outside the Mansion one morning. "Boss, I spoke with Miss Athena's secretary and she informed me that there was an extra parcel ordered alongside ma'am Sienna's Brotelli diamond on the day of the engagement. She asked for the invoice and order request from Miss Athena a day before. I tried to align the results you sent to me with the parcel received and the parcel order was that of a rare spider venom mixed in silver. That's what was written on the order of the parcel she received the goods from. There's only one drop shipper for wolves in the West. That's where I found the order receipt." He said handing me the order receipt. I checked the paper work and everything was just as he had relayed it."What about the background check?" I asked my sunglasses shielding my face."Here is the flash I put every information on" He said and handed me the flash."Hmm" I sighed, I knew I wouldn't like what I wo
ATHENA'S POINT OF VIEW"What rubbish are you spitting?" I asked Scarlett becoming extremely furious that she would dare speak about my Mother."Leader of a white wolf pack. Did she really think she wouldn't have oppositions? I respected your mother as a woman of power but character was not her strong suit""How dare you?!" I growled standing up with my claws out ready to fight, but Scarlett sat unwavered."Yes, exactly, reveal the rogue in you. You don't belong to a pack Athena, you belong in the wild with Charlatans just like yourself. Homeless monsters" she said"You're the Monster! You think you are any better than the rest of us?! You're an Animal, Scarlett Stone!" I snarled. She merely laughed at my reaction, she was getting exactly what she wanted."Sit down, Athena, I'm not finished." She said with a compelling authority that made me calm down. Alphas always had that ability over the members of their pack, even a Luna."There is a way out of all of this for you, take the money
