"Come in," the professor's deep voice came from behind his office door.

With a deep breath, I pushed the door open and walked in. He was working on his laptop with an undivided attention.

"What do you want?" he asked without sparing me a glance.

His cold, impassive conduct sliced through my heart. How heartless, how unfeeling could one be to not find the slightest of kindness in his heart to return after everything. A little display of gratefulness wouldn't hurt that much. After all, if it wa

  • Zeus - The Alpha of Hatred    Chapter 44

    Did Mrs. Valerious's hatred for me truly outweigh her love for her own son? Had she become so blind? Gerald had undoubtedly tried killing Zeus, yet she helped him escape. Why? How could she?The questions kept spiraling in my mind without interval. I just couldn't wrap my head around them, no matter how hard I tried. Zeus sat beside me, calm and collected as he silently sipped on coffee, but there was no mistaking the cold, icy undercurrent of rage simmering right beneath the surface of his skin. He hadn't said much, but he had been firmly holding my hand since our plane ride started an hour ago. It was as though I was the only thing keeping him anchored, preventing the storm of emotions smoldering inside him from erupting. It pained me to see him this way. As far I knew Mrs. Valerious had always played favorites between her children, and after her daughter died, she had indirectly blamed Zeus even though it was never his fault. I had seen him yearn for his mother's love on so many

  • Zeus - The Alpha of Hatred    Chapter 43

    A soft, melodious hum faintly drifted through the air when I blinked my eyes open, almost lulling me back to sleep. But the unfamiliarity of the high, vaulted ceiling reflected by a light glimmer of sunlight streaming in through the large, arched windows, brought me out of the trance. Outside, a vast forest stood tall, the trees dark and ancient. To my left, a sleek, holographic monitor floated mid-air, displaying my vitals in glowing texts. I frowned, jerking upright so fast, my head swam. “You're awake.” The sudden male voice jolted me, my gaze darting around the room. A figure moved in the corner, his back to me. Long, golden hair cascaded over his shoulders, brushing the collar of his deep emerald scrubs. Even though he was right in front of me, it was as if he didn't exist—no energy, no presence, nothing to sense him in the air. “Who are you?” My voice wavered as the danger radar inside me kicked in, my eyes flicking to the pale gray walls as if they were about to attack. “W

    “Beta Mason,” I called out, striding into the pack office building urgently. “Where is he?” “Luna!” Caught off-guard, he dismissed the other employee hastily and faced me, trying to conceal his unease with a polite smile. “Who are you talking about?” “You know exactly who. Zeus. Where has he gone?”He opened his mouth, clearly about to spew some half-truths in order to placate me. “Don't dare lie to me,” I warned him before he could.His mouth snapped shut, tension radiating through every inch of his tall frame. Then he straightened, getting all serious. “Luna, I can't tell you.”“You have to. You don't understand—”“It's the Alpha's order. I can't go against him.”I took a deep, trembling breath, trying to keep the immense desperation wanting out in check. “I need to know. The man he's facing… he is a trickster. He can go to any length to win. Please, tell me.”“The match will be held officially with council wardens and guards monitoring everything. He can't pull anything funny. B

  • Zeus - The Alpha of Hatred    Chapter 41

    I stumbled down the hall, my mind spinning as shock crashed over me in waves. My breaths came out in shallow gasps, the air feeling too thick, and my lungs too tight. My heart thundered against my chest, my throat aching as if a scream was lodged into it or sobs. “Zeus…” I called, but no sound came. I didn't know what was happening, too lost in the whirlwind of emotions tearing through me. Could it be true? Could he really…?My vision obscured around the edges, my legs trembling. Just when I thought I was losing control, Zeus appeared at the end of the hall, his urgent gaze fixing on me as he swiftly moved, closing the distance between us. “Anastasia.” “Z-Zeus,” I finally managed to voice. Pushing myself forward, I stumbled into his arms, and he caught me with ease. “Anastasia, what is it?” “Zeus,” I whispered, clinging to his shirt as if it was the only thing keeping me together. “Zeus, he—” I choked out, my breath hitching. “M-my father… my father's alive.” The thick worry o

    “Ana!” Samara squealed, hurtling towards me and almost tackling me to the ground with the force of her hug. “Oh my God, girl, how have you been? I have been so worried about you. I wanted to come see you, but Talia wouldn't let me. Are you okay? What about Mrs. Miracle? I heard she had a heart—” “Sam!” Talia's sharp voice shut her rambling up, and she finally breathed, her cheeks flushing. “Sorry,” she muttered sheepishly. “I just couldn't help it. I’ve missed you so much. How are you?” I couldn't help but laugh, shaking my head as I returned her hug. “I'm okay. Mom’s fine, too. And I missed you just as much.” I glanced around, taking in the familiar campus grounds. The old stone buildings, the woods at the back, and the chatter of the students; it was good to be finally back. Of course, it took a lot of pleading, convincing, and a dozen promises to get Zeus to let me come back. He wasn't thrilled with the idea of me being here without him, especially, since he wasn't returning to

  • Zeus - The Alpha of Hatred    Chapter 39

    “Begin,” Zeus commanded, and the feast came to life. The grand pack hall buzzed with clinking of cutlery and fine china as the pack members indulged in the ceremonial meal. Laughter and chatter echoed through every corner, excitement humming in the air. Only, I wasn't feeling any of it. My dinner sat untouched before me, my nerves tightening. It felt as though a dagger hung suspended above my head, inching down closer and closer with each passing second. The anticipation was unbearable, like waiting for a storm I couldn't escape.I had heard tales about bones shattering and reshaping, skin stretching, and muscles tearing as the body took a new form. One of the late bloomers in the pack even described it as being set on fire from the inside out. Even though I had experienced the transformation once before, it had happened so suddenly and in such a blur that mixed with the rush of adrenaline, the pain hadn't felt as intense as it should have. I took a shaky breath, trying to steel

    "Reviewing the results of your tests, I'm happy to say there is no issue with your heart," Dr. Johnson informed, her round face lighting with a smile. "Are you sure?" I asked. "Maybe you missed something?" I decided to make an appointment with a doctor to make sure I wasn't actually disregarding

    The odd pain in my chest wasn't the only concerning fact. There was something more."What do you feel about parties, Ana?"A different kind of sadness."Ana?" Like a part of my soul was howling to death. Literally. "Ana!" "Huh?" I jolted out of my thoughts. "Where are you lost?" Samara quizzed.

    "Tasia, my baby. Wake up." "Ana, please, talk to us." "Ana." Several voices pierced through the haze in my head, snapping me awake. I opened my eyes, and the harsh daylight hit me like a tidal wave, making my head throb painfully. A groan slipped out as I shifted in the softness of my bed. "T

  • Zeus - The Alpha of Hatred    Chapter 1

    Fire crackled through the wood we’d spent half an hour collecting, casting a warm glow in the dark redwood forest. My mouth watered as a delicious smell of meatloaf filled the air. I reached for a piece, watching as Tyler, the neighbor's son, and the host of tonight's campfire, fumbled to pick one f
