Semua Bab Rise of Athena : Bab 181 - Bab 190

"Who ended up winning?" Athena asked Damien as she shut the door to her study. Damien had just returned from the just wrapped up games. He looked worried and Athena knew why but she wasn't going to say anything regarding it. "Magenta team. Teal came second place and Orange third." I feel my heart sink. I want to laugh out loud but I stifle it enough to make it a cough. "Has Heyli returned?" He asked. "That's what is more important to me right now. I need to know that she's safe," "No, she hasn't." "Why have we not sent a search team, yet?" "Because Loki is with her." "How are we sure of that? We need to know where she is! I am really worried," "You know how they view Kanimes here? Did you hear that they had a Kanime attack one time and a lot of people were killed? They're going to mete out their anger on her and I don't want to take the risks. Loki is with her and she's safe." "You can make an announcement, pass a warning that she shouldn

Alex had left Athena hanging and his stupid words before he left her on the table, unsatisfied and yearning for more was; "I told you that if I won, I'd make you do anything I want. I didn't say I was going to do anything with you." Blushing in anger, she climbed down the desk and put herself in order. She had shamelessly let him torture and told her what to do and now, she was here, all alone, wishing she could kill without having to be questioned. As soon as she was done dressing properly, she closed her curtains. Then she remembered that Heyli hadn't returned yet and she got really worried and felt slightly guilty for engaging in unscrupulous acts with Alex instead of worrying about Heyli. Well, it was all Alex's fault. She opened her office and locked it before taking a deep breath and going for the palace entrance. She was going to wait at the porch till Heyli returned safely and if she didn't, she was going to send out a team of warriors, making sure sh

Loki, after spending some time alone at the porch decided that maybe this was his destiny. To protect Heyli. As he walked into the palace, he remembered a certain time when he was told by the Shaman that he would be the protector of a great person and he was warned to guard his heart. Was it Heyli she talked about? Loki shook his head. He wasn't sure. Heyli didn't come close to being a great person. Yes, she must have been lucky to find favor in the King's sight, but that was all. "You're Loki?" A man standing at the foot of the steps said. Loki nodded. "Of course." The man nodded and gestured for him to take the staircase. "I'm the one showing you to your room. Were you informed by the King?" Loki nodded. "Yes, I was," The man nodded and followed Loki up the steps. He was a quiet old man, with receding gray hair and a hunched form. Loki wondered what he was still doing here as a porter. They walked through the corridor and past Heyli's roo

Athena was awake early and she sat in the drawing room, having a cup of tea. Damien was seated before her. "How is the speech going to go?" He asked as he looked at her intently. "I already wrote something. You can read through it," Athena said and handed the paper over to him. Damien took it from her and looked down at the paper. He raised his brows. "This sounds good but quite controversial. We have to convince them, not force it on them," Athena shook her head and gently placed her teacup on the saucer. "Do they look like they can be convinced? A whole pack who was terrorized by a pack of Kanimes? It'll be quite hard for them to be convinced that she's harmless. We have to come up with something they would agree to. " Athena took the paper from his hand and placed it on the table. "If they're going to hear me out, then they will understand. But if they will not, then they'll have to take it the hard way," "Your majesty," Damien said looking really wor

Athena made sure she touched every topic she had planned on doing. There was a bit of an uproar when she mentioned that Heyli would continue training with the junior team. Someone had yelled about how dangerous it was and she had totally ignored them and also Damien who was looking at her to clarify things. "I don't have to clarify things. If they don't trust me enough to assure them safety, then they should live in fear." After the announcement, Athena wished the people good luck and reminded them of the Royal Hunting Ceremony that would be commencing in about a month's time. She left the porch, not minding if people were speaking openly about how much of a dictator she was. She found Heyli standing in the room that led to the porch and at the door stood Loki. His arms were folded before him. She walked towards Heyli. "Heyli, are you good? Loki told me about your situation and I immediately sent a chiropractor to you," "I've always been a weapon
