Athena’s POV I wake as if it's an emergency, as if sleeping had become a dangerous thing. My heart beats fast and there is a buzzing in my brain that sends electric pulses through my body as it replays the last few scenes from before blacking out. I had been bitten by a vampire then the witches, they were chanting but I couldn’t understand what they were saying, I knew it was Latin because of the dialect but I didn’t know the language. Sitting up and looking around I had been placed back in my room. Had they not learned I wouldn’t stay put? Not when my pup was the target. Walking to the doorway I stopped in my tracks when I hear the muffled voices of both Hector and my mum. I tried to listen in but only managed to pick up fragments of their conversation. What I heard sent a pang of pain to my heart. Axel had been intimate with Vanessa before knocking her unconscious. The worst part was that he done a bodge job of a c-section to remove the pup after finding out her pregnancy had been m

Hector’s POVI knew I was hard on Athena, but I needed her to understand the seriousness of her actions. She had always been the more sensible out of us so to see her make a split-second decision like that, it was terrifying. It wasn’t just her life she was now risking but that of our pups. If something happened to either of them it would finish me. Axel had been distant since he returned. His pup placed in the children’s ward at the hospital as he refused to bond with her. Everything had turned from bad to utter shit. We were avoiding each other even though we knew we needed to be together to accomplish what needs to be done. To harness the power of my mates it would likely kill me, but that was the duty of a silver wolf. To protect the gifted wolves. I had blocked out the emotions of my mates, their feelings blending and merging with my own it felt like my head would burst.Knowing we wouldn’t have long until the evil bitch reared her ugly head again, I headed to Axel’s office. I kne

Athena’s POVI couldn’t help the chuckle that left me when Axel singed Aunt Marie’s fur. The growl she gave him really did cheer me up. I could feel his hesitation about being near me, but truthfully, I was grateful he hadn’t left my side. As much as I’d hated to admit it, I felt safer with him. Everything moved so quickly, more and more portals began to open allowing more wolves to enter. We were surrounded. Axles pack warriors had been blocked from the pack house with some kind of barrier spell. My mum and dad’s wolves were fighting side by side the entire time. They were the ideal couple, something I had hope me and my mates would one day become. They loved, moved and fought as one. Axel was fighting in human form as Thor had retreated following the death of my sister, though he was able to use his fire element to take out the odd opponent here and there. If he could take them down safely that was without burning the entire place to the ground. With us stuck in here that would be a

Athena’s POVOne Year Later“Come on we’re going to be late” My words were rushed as I threw the changing bags into the boot. My parents were throwing a party for Layla as she turned one today, and we were going to be late… again.“We have plenty of time, stop worrying” Hector came up behind me placing a kiss on my cheek before getting into the car. Checking the children were strapped in their seats properly I got in beside him. Lately we were always late which really irked me, I was someone that liked routine though lately I didn’t even know what that was.“Please tell me Axel will be back in time. I haven’t heard from him” The day I killed his mum he left for a few weeks and truthfully, it did us all good. We needed time and space and he knew that. He knew I wasn’t just going to roll over and forget everything that happened. That I wasn’t just going to forgive him, and he accepted that. When he did come home however, both Hector and I were waiting for him. Our relationship isn’t perf

Hectors POVMy hands clenched my chest. My heart soaring with pain. Axel had been gravely injured and our bond to him was fading. Athena was on the floor her mum taking Roman as she began to thrash in pain. The look on her face said all I needed to know. We were running out of time. Axel was dying. Forcing the bond away was just enough to dull the pain enabling me to move. Crawling over to where Axel laid unconscious a sliver knife sat embedded in his chest. Feeling for his pulse it was there but it was getting weaker by the second. Silver was fatal to us and the position it was in made it impossible for me to remove.“Come on let’s get him to the hospital” Alpha Jake and my father were at my side in a heartbeat. Both helping me to my feet before picking Axel up. The fighting had stopped, the rogues running away as their leader met his demise. No-one chased after them, my mate was every ones priority at this moment.“My darling oh my goddess” my mum cupped my face tears falling from he
