“Th… that wasn’t the one you met first?” I shake my head. Esme backs up until her legs hit the edge of the couch. She falls onto the couch and places her hands on her chest.

“Damn! I spoke to the Alpha that way?! Why didn’t you stop me, Akia?!” Esme shuts her eyes and curls into a ball on the couch. I want to laugh at how dramatic she’s being, but I won’t do that to her. I sit next to her and rub her back.

“It’s okay. I know it’s hard because they are identical, but I promise you that’s Atlas.

    ~Ares~Atlas was supposed to have breakfast with my girl, and he did. He had a very limited breakfast, and I watched from the shadows. I waited for the right moment to snatch her up, and that time came when she left to take a phone call.I made sure to follow her in the hallway. I could hear the phone call, and I didn’t like it. Who was he to question my mate and ask where she’s been? I especially didn’t like him demanding that she present herself in front of him. No one gets to demand anything of my little flower. I don’t care who they are or what title they hold.I stand in front of her with my hand on her hip. Our eyes are locked, and I see love swimming in her eyes. My heart flutters at that, knowing my girl loves me even though she hasn’t said it. “Let’s get out of here.”“Wh… what?” She’s dazed, and I know it’s because of that kiss. I smirk, loving that I have that effect on her. I grab her hand and move forward.“Let’s get out of here.” I turn and continue forward to have her p

I sit next to her and rub her back.“It’s okay. I know it’s hard because they are identical, but I promise you that’s Atlas. Ares is upstairs somewhere.” Esme starts to groan, and I rub her back.“I guess I need to apologize.” I let out a little laugh.“Yeah, you probably should do that. Also, don’t try to attack anyone else until you know who they are and even then, just don’t. Okay?” Esme pops her head up and looks at me. “I know, Esme, but please.” She shakes her head and closes her eyes. I guess that’s as close as I will get to an agreement as I can.~Atlas~I could almost cry out with relief when Akia emerges fro

    ~Atlas~I have to admit that I woke up with a spring in my step. That is not how I usually wake up, and I have a feeling that I know what the cause is. I know that I got ready much faster than I usually would, and Roul was right there with me. Alpha Atlas?Yes?There’s a young woman here. She’s asking for your guest. A young woman asking for Akia? It’s probably that girl who was with her when she got here. I wonder what she wants with her.Have her wait in the sitting room. We will be there shortly. I cut the mindlink and hurry to find Akia. When I got there, my entire being lit up at the sight of her. I knew the mate bond would be a life-changing thing, but I didn’t expect it to impact me so thoroughly and so quickly.Ares, walking up to the group, immediately added tension to the scene. I know that Apollo and Ares don’t really get along, but I had hoped that would change as we matured. It seems like something recent happened, but I guess I have to wait until later to find out.I tig

    I’ve had broken arms and legs, which healed like a human’s because I didn’t have my wolf yet. One time, I swore that Ares had his wolf. As improbable as that seems, I still believe it to be true.We were around 10 years old, and Ares was at it again. I won’t go into the details, but I was hanging off the side of a mountain, praying to the Moon Goddess that I wouldn’t die. Ares was leaning over the side, staring at me. I swear I saw his eyes flash to black and then go to his natural color.I know it shouldn’t be true because getting your wolf at the age of ten is unheard of. I wanted to go to my parents and ask, but I thought that would just cause more problems. Since then, I always tried to keep my distance just in case I really did see what I thought I saw.Ares has always acted as if he hated me, and I could never understand why that was. I ended up building a sibling bond with Atlas, and I only tolerated Ares because we are related. I’ve always felt that I had one brother instead o

    ~Adolf~A jolt rolls through me, causing me to jump up. I look around, but there’s nothing but darkness. This time, the darkness is different; it’s familiar. Ares? My voice is soft and raspy. I don’t like that at all. I clear my throat and try again. Ares. Adolf?! What the fuck man?! Where the hell have you been? What happened?I… I don’t know. I remember we were going to get Akia… I remember what happened. One moment, I was sharing consciousness with Ares. We had a plan, and we were about to set it in motion. We were going to mark Akia and then take her away. Then, in an instant, I was being toyed with by Nyx, with Selene watching. That can’t be real, right? There’s no way that actually happened. Right?Yeah, we followed her around. We had a plan to mark her and take her away. Right before you could do it, you disappeared. I’ve been waiting for you for a while now. There was nothing but a void in my mind where you were supposed to be. Shit! Maybe it wasn’t a dream after all. That me

    ~Third Person~Adolf was ready for the next step, and Ares was wholly on board. They have been watching Akia all night and knew that all they needed was a good distraction to get her alone. There wasn’t a rogue attack at all. They knew that the distance it would take to get to that border and back would be enough to get Akia and get out of here.It was torture following her around all day. It wasn’t so much that they couldn’t have her, though that was part of it. It was more so the fact that his brothers wouldn’t keep their hands off her. The fact that they kept touching her was making them almost murderous.The plan was to grab Akia and mark her later, once they settled. That plan went out the window when they got close, and Adolf caught her scent. Her scent is overwhelming in the best way possible. It was more than enough to make him weak in the knees.Adolf decided then and there that he would mark Akia first, and then they could take off. Ares agreed with the plan without any conv
