Apollo looks down at his phone, checking the time. He left them alone for hours, hoping that they were able to spend time together. He didn’t want to interrupt that time.

If he’s being honest, a part of him is a little jealous. It isn’t everyone who comes across their mate to find out that they saved themselves. The selfish, animalistic side of him wanted to be the one to take her first time. It’s probably an ‘Alpha’ thing, or maybe any man would feel the same way. He could have pushed the issu

    ~Akia~I didn’t plan to fall asleep, but I couldn’t help it. Everything was a lot, and I was running on fumes. I can’t even remember how all of this started because it feels like I’ve been going for days and not hours. I guess life gets like that when facing circumstances like the ones I just escaped from. Settling against Atlas made me feel safe, and sleep came quickly.My body is moving slowly, but it’s enough to wake me out of my sleep. I blink rapidly, trying to get my eyes to adjust. When I open my eyes, I find myself gliding in the air, wrapped in the arms of one of my mates. I want to look and see who it is, but the exhaustion is overwhelming. I let my eyes close and snuggle against the warmth that’s surrounding me.⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲⇱⇲I wake up startled and sit up in bed. I gently touch my head and find it

    ~Akia~I don’t know what to say right now. Ares is bleeding out on the ground right now. Apollo is standing over him, but there’s no emotion on his face. Atlas has passed out next to Ares’s body, the stress having gotten to him. I’m standing here, not knowing what to do.My mate is gone… one of my mates is gone. I should feel sad, heartbroken. My heart should be shattered, and I should be trying to figure out how to survive without him. This is what I should be doing, but I’m not. I’m actually okay, and that’s a bit terrifying to say.If I’m being honest with myself, it feels like there’s a weight that has been lifted off me. Ares and Adolf are gone, and I’m not even mad about it. It’s crazy how calm I feel, but the truth is what it is.I know that Ares is the first of my mates that I met, b

    ~Atlas~The pain in my chest was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced in my life. It didn’t hurt this much when I was told that my mom had walked away from us or when we found out that she hadn’t left, but she’d been killed. I never knew something could hurt this much.There’s a warm hand on my back, tracing small circles. The feeling is soothing, but I don’t want it… I don’t deserve it. My head rests on softness, but it’s different from a pillow.I’ve stopped screaming and begging for something different. My throat is dry, and there are no more tears. I’m just left with the horrific pain. I killed my brother. I ended the life of my blood brother. I can never face anyone again; I can never be forgiven. “It’s okay, my child.” I slowly lift my head, struggling against the intense desire to disappear.

    ~Nyx~I stand and watch Adolf lose his sh.it. He huffs and puffs for a while, his eyes shut. I’m sure he’s trying to contact his human, but that isn’t happening. His connection with Ares has been severed by me.When that doesn’t work, he runs toward the others, but he moves right through them like a gas. It’s kind of funny, and if this weren’t a dire situation, I’d probably laugh at him. I can laugh later, right now, I will let him exhaust himself.His growl is strong enough to shake the trees if they were in the same plane that we are in. Adolf turns his head toward us and sneers. All of his teeth are visible, and there’s saliva dripping off the sharp tips. What did you do?!I scoff and roll my eyes. “What are you talking about?”Don’t play with me, bitch! Wh

    ~Ares~Everything was going good, I swear it was. I had Atlas dead to rights, and I was going to finish the job. I’m not a sentimental bitch! I handle business regardless of who that business is with.I ended Akia’s parents because they were determined to take her from me. I had to let my mother go because she agreed with them and was going to put me away for ‘treatment’ as if there was anything wrong with me. My father had to go to ensure that he kept his fucking mouth shut. It was also because I was sick of him trying to interfere in my life. I say all that to say that I had no problems putting an end to Atlas, brother or not.I should have made sure that Apollo was gone. I should have, at least, made sure he was truly incapacitated if he wasn’t dead. I got ahead of myself; I got too cocky. They have always said that was a problem of mine, but I never saw t

    ~Apollo~I don’t regret joining Atlas in his fight against Ares, but I wasn’t prepared. I can’t say how long it’s been since I’ve gone against Ares, but it’s clear that it’s been a long time. I’m not sure how much help I’m being to Atlas, but I have to keep going.My fists fly along with my feet. I’m catching hits and landing a few. It seems like every time I go down, Atlas takes over, and the same happens when he gets hit. Ares is no slouch when it comes to fighting, and he has mania on his side. Fighting someone in a manic state is very different than anything else.I keep going, ignoring the exhaustion that’s starting to set in and the pain that’s radiating all over my body. I have to pretend that I’m invincible. If I give in even slightly, I will lose everything and that includes Akia.

    We were let right through the gate without hesitation. We were also given directions to reach the pack hospital. The moment we pulled up, I wasted no time in pulling the door open and jumping out. I’m not even sure that the car actually stopped, but I can’t be bothered with that now.I run into the

    ~Apollo~The car is quiet, except for the hum of the motor. Atlas is neck deep in pack work on his laptop, and the warriors in the front are doing their jobs quietly. I’ve been sitting next to Atlas, lost in my own thoughts. We are heading to Akia’s pack right now so we can meet her family.We went

    ~Akia~On Fridays, I usually have two classes with Matt. I was excited to see him since we had gone on a date the night before. Matt wasn’t in class. I don’t remember him being sick last night, so I got worried.I walk into the dorm and plop on the couch. I pull my phone out for the millionth time,

    ~Unknown~I do my homework, and I do it well. I found the registration office in a short amount of time. I swallow the disgusting liquid I got from an acquaintance. It’s something I’ve used in the past, but I hate using it when I do.It’s a potion that doesn’t last too long, but allows me to distor
