CHAPTER FIVE

AIDEN’S P.O.V

"Mother, why aren't you saying a word?" I asked. After I had rambled everything that had happened to my Mother, she just kept staring at me.

"What do you want me to say? I warned you didn't I? I told you that girl is of no good for you, but what did you say?" Mom said angrily and I sighed.

"But she's still my mate," I pointed out.

"And you just found your second mate which is a good thing, you are surprisingly among the people who the moon goddess choose to give a second mate at last you will be free from that girl's clutches" she said.

"I ordered for the pack doctor to get rid of her pregnancy, I don't want the rumors that have been spreading around in the pack to be confirmed" I said.

"Rumours? I don't see anything in what they said to be rumors, it is all true that your mate wasn't loyal to you and had gotten pregnant for another man" I clenched my fists as the images of Athena on our bed with that scunt Sebastian, I would kill him.

"Mother, that's enough stop reminding me about it. I have done good by you and would announce Greta to be my new Luna in the next four days" I said.

It was such a coincidence that right after I found out about Athena cheating on me with another man, I found out that Greta is my second mate.

"And I am proud of your decisions son" mother walked towards me and placed her hand on my cheeks, smiling.

"I would be back soon, I just need to take care of some things" in said stepping out of her embrace and walking back to the pack house.

"Finally you've showed up" Brian my beta said as I stepped into the pack house.

"What is the problem?" I asked.

"A lot of things is the problem. You ordered for Athena’s unborn child to be killed, you know Athena would never cheat on you" he said and I frowned.

"Do not ever utter that name in my presence, ever again” I growled using my Alpha tone and he bowed his head in submission.

"Of course, I just want to inform you that she died why they tried to kill the child" he said in a cold tone.

"Okay" I replied, I have better things to do than talking about a cheating mate.

"I see" he replied and turn on his heels walking away.

I sighed then walked to my chambers, I have to get everything ready for the initiation.

THIRD PERSON'S POV

"My Luna, she's dead" the pack doctor who had watched Athena take her final breath hurriedly left the pack hospital in search of Greta to inform her about the success of her plan.

"That's great, you see, if you hadn't done it you would have been in the same position with her" Greta said. She didn't feel a twinge of pain at the lost of her so called best friend.

She had always love Aiden and was hoping she would be Aiden’s mate when the time comes but instead Athena had been his mate.

"You can take your leave now and never speak of this to anyone, your grandson is safe" Greta said and the woman quickly thanked her and walked out of the place.

Greta smiled, it was time to inform Aiden that Athena had died and play the role of a good mate with him.

GRETA’S POV

"Aiden” I sobbed as I walked into his chambers.

"What is it, Greta? What's wrong?" Aiden asked. He looked worried when he saw the tears on my face and I smiled, the witch sure knew what I wanted.

"It's Athena, the pack doctor could not safe her, she died with the unborn child" I cried more, making him feel like I was pained that Athena was gone when it was the exact opposite.

"Oh, that" he said and I stared at him in confusion.

"I have been informed already" he said. He didn't even look bothered about it. This is great, I can now finally have him for myself.

"I ordered the guards to bury her and you my queen would be named my Luna in the next four days" he smiled.

I pulled him closer to me and placed a kiss on his lips which he responded to.

I guess there was no much work for me to do.

"I guess I have to go get prepared" I said and went out of his chambers. I have to inform Ursula the witch that everything had worked according to plan.

"My Alpha" the Beta ran into the pack breathing heavily.

"What is it again, Brian?” Aiden asked in an annoyed tone, it seems like the two got into an argument.

"The body is missing" Brian said.

"What body?" I asked confused.

"Her body, Athena’s body can't be found" he said and I stared at Aiden in shock.

Didn't that Pack doctor informed me that Athena was dead? Then how did her body get missing?

"I thought you said she was dead?" Aiden asked, the same question was running through our mind.

"Yes, at that time I saw her dead body but the guards I left there could not find her body" he replied.

"But you confirmed she was dead" I asked again.

"Yes, I did" he replied.

"If she was dead before her body went missing, what's the essence of being paranoid" I said.

"Send a search party and find her body" Aiden said and Brian nodded quickly then left.

Aiden was in a sour mood, I walked to him but he pushed my hands away.

"What's the matter with you?" I asked.

"It's nothing, weren't you planning on leaving? You can leave now" he said.

"Fine, if that's what you want" I said and banged the door shut before leaving.

I guess I had spoken too soon, he is still in love with that Athena. But one thing I know is Athena is gone and wouldn't return.

Cheers to my hard work!
