ATHENA’S POV“Are you okay? I heard what happened.” Alpha Jeremy asked me as he held my shoulders.“Y… Yes, I am.” I managed to speak out, although with a shaky voice.“Get her something to wear, immediately! Or what are you standing here for!” Alpha Jeremy yelled at them.“Jane just went to get her something to wear, Alpha.” One of the maids responded politely.Then I felt Alpha Jeremy’s stare on me. He embraced me, and I could feel his warm breath around my neck. Anyone would think that I was happy with the way he came to me, and embraced me, but I wasn’t totally happy when I knew that there was no possible way, he could treat me better than his beloved, Octavia.“I don’t feel too comfortable.” I spoke out, and he let go of me, slowly.Then I felt Jane’s presence. She must have brought the gown with her, so I walked into the dressing room without anyone informing me that I had to. Jane walked into the dressing room, and helped me remove whatever she had used to cover me up, but I st
ATHENA’S POVMy heart broke, and it felt as if they had thrown spikes at my heart. Even as I was blind, I still would feel embarrassed if I ever went outside, and what was even more heartbreaking was the fact that it sounded as if Alpha Jeremy was only pissed because of his image, and not because of how I was going to feel towards it.“You need to stop this unnecessary jealousy. It isn’t worth it. Now, because of you, I would have to call for a press conference, because obviously, only a press conference would do justice to this.” Alpha Jeremy lashed out.“But… everyone fears you, my love. You can just tell it to the media to debunk any idea they have of you.” Octavia spoke, calmly.“It’s not done that way. I can’t use the fear to get rid of the thought from people’s head. Apart from being feared, they will still have this idea that I don’t treat people right, and most of all, the blind, and that’s not how it’s supposed to be. A king is expected to be more, okay!”Then I felt someone
ATHENA’S POVIt felt so good to feel acknowledged, and noticed. The excitement bubbling in me just at the thought of going to a college of Arts was quite overwhelming, and what was even more delightful about the offer was the fact that it wasn’t a school specially made for the disabled, so I didn’t have to feel pitiful or miserable. Going to a school with normal people felt like an honor because most of my life there had always been that line, that boundary—no matter how great I was at what I did, they still acknowledged me as a different person. We were different people because I couldn't see but they could. I was at a disadvantage. Most of the time, it had struck me deep that although I could do most things that a totally normal person with two beautiful and working eyes could do, and sometimes, even better than they would do, but there was little I could do about my situation. I had been forced to accept it. The thought of the press conference strayed into my mind and a sigh esc
ATHENA’S POV“Good morning, miss.” Jane greeted as she helped me up.“Good morning. How much time do I have until the press conference?” I asked, inquisitively.“About two hours, I think. You’ll need to get ready as soon as you can, so you can join Alpha Jeremy and Octavia for breakfast.” Jane replied politely.“Uhm… Regarding the breakfast, can I have mine in my room?” I inquired, not interested in being anywhere around Octavia.“That’s not for me to decide, Miss. You can talk to Alpha Jeremy about it, but I doubt he would listen. I know you might be feeling reluctant to share a meal with Octavia, but you need to act confident, and if you’re trying so much to avoid trouble from Octavia, you can just eat silently while at the table.” Jane advised, and held my hand softly.“Tha… Thank you.” I appreciated her, and found my way to the bathroom with the help of my cane.I would have loved it if I could stall at the bathroom, but that could also be me, opening wrath to myself. But I couldn
ATHENA'S POV“You did so well. I love that. I have already made preparations for your school, so get prepared to start attending, from tomorrow.” Alpha Jeremy informed me while we were in his car.I was wondering what I was to expect, tomorrow, and I hoped that my experience there would turn out great. When we got home, I walked back to my room myself, and then a knock came on my door immediately I settled down.“Come in.” I urged and heard the person, walking in.“How are you doing, miss? I came to offer you fruits.” Jane said as she placed the tray of fruits beside me on the bed.“Thank you. What’s the occasion?” I asked as I still wasn’t used to being treated this nicely.“You just came back from a press conference which can be quite stressful, especially with the questions you answered there. Dinner isn’t ready yet, so I decided to provide you with fruits to hold on.” She explained as she handed over an apple to me.“Thanks.”“So, I heard that you’ll be attending a college of art,
ATHENA’S POVI gulped down my saliva, nervously, and moistened my lips. They may not have any bad thoughts towards me. It might just be all in my head, but first, I needed to use the restroom, and I don’t think I can wait too long, anymore.“Hello. Please can anyone of you, help me to the restroom?” I requested for help, but all I got was them, laughing out loud.It was quite surprising that it was the response to my plea for help. Could my hunch have been right?“Why do you think we’ll desire to help you, blind girl?” One of them with a thick voice, spoke out.That cut deep into my heart, because this wasn’t how I expected my first day at college to go. “She’s speechless.” Another giggled and ended her giggle with a satisfied sigh.It was painful that I couldn’t see how these ladies looked like to know how dangerous they could be to me, either physically or mentally.“Did I perhaps offend you? I’m sorry, but I just can’t wrap my head around the reason you are all laughing at me, and
ALPHA JEREMY’S POVI closed my laptop, and gulped down the remnant of my chilled wine, and then stretched. It was so relaxing to have completed my work in one sitting. Now, what I needed was to hold Octavia tight, and have the best time with her.I walked to the bedroom, and met Octavia lying down sexily with her phone in her hands. I moistened my lips, and my dick got excited as I placed my laptop somewhere safe.“Oh, this looks so good.” She complimented, staring at my dick, sexily.That was one thing I loved about her. She understood signals easily, and was always ready to please me the way I wanted. She made even my sex life, more interesting. Who in their right senses would let a woman like Octavia, go, when there are only a few of them in this world?She moved closer to me, and touched me softly.Her touch sent a wave of signal all through my body and I was all charged up for a good sex with her. I also bit my lips in response and stared into her eyes lustfully. Then I held her
ALPHA JEREMY'S POVI wrapped a robe around myself and went to get some water to drink. Octavia definitely knew how to get me exhausted whenever we slept with each other and thinking of the moments of electricity we shared minutes ago, I couldn't help smiling to myself.As I drank, Athena's maid walked past, bowing as she did and I recalled I hadn't really seen Athena since she got back from her college."Has Athena eaten?" I asked, leaning against a wall and she turned to look at me."No. I… I haven't seen her yet. She's yet to return." She replied in a timid voice, keeping her head bowed and her fingers tangled together. "Yet to return?" I asked in surprise, then dropped my water on the counter and left to check on the driver.Surprisingly, the driver was at his quarters, and immediately he saw me, he bowed low."Where is Athena?" I asked, putting my hands in the pockets of my robe, and he raised his head. His eyes shifted restlessly, refusing to meet mine and finally he bowed real
