/Selene's POV/My phone had never rung before.I stared at it for a full second, the glowing screen, the unfamiliar ringtone, the unknown number— before my brain caught up."It's obviously Thompson," Athena said flatly. "Answer it.""I knew that," I said, reaching for it."You absolutely did not.""You know what? " I snapped. "I think I preferred you mute." The words were out before I could stop them — my mouth operating, as usual, several seconds ahead of my better judgment. "Life was quieter. Maybe you should go back to hibernating."Silence.Not the comfortable kind."Your wish," Athena said quietly, "is my command."And she retreated, not all the way, not like before, but enough that the familiar warmth of her presence dimmed noticeably. I felt the absence like a small cold draft and wanted very badly to take it back.I didn't mean it, I thought toward her.She didn't respond. But she didn't leave entirely either, which I chose to interpret as forgiveness on a payment plan.I ans

/Eros POV/I began working on the paperwork again. Two hours later, my stomach protested, and I dropped the pen before picking up my phone to dial Julietta's number. She answered on the second ring."Hello, how are you today?" Julietta's voice came through warm and slightly suspicious, the way it always did when she hadn't seen me eat recently and was preparing her opening argument."I'm well. I need coffee sent up.""It's past nine o'clock." Her tone sharpened precisely. "Your dinner from last night came back untouched this morning. Care to explain?"I leaned back in my chair. Outside, the day was bright and happy, if I may add, entirely indifferent to my dietary habits. "I was tired. I slept on an empty stomach. It happens.""It happens because you allow it to happen." I could picture her exactly, at five foot three, hands on her hips, the expression she reserved for pack warriors who had disappointed her and apparently also for kings who neglect their health. "I will send up coffee

/Eros POV/Marcus talked for forty minutes and twenty-five seconds.I let him. I asked questions when he stopped, kept my voice even, kept my face neutral, and catalogued every detail he offered against the version I carried — the gaps and overlaps, the places where his memory and mine ran parallel and the places where they diverged entirely.He'd seen her first from the VIP section and was drawn under compulsion. A burgundy dress. Blonde hair. Moving through the crowd with the quality he'd described earlier, decided, like someone who had made up their mind about something and was seeing it through.He'd tried to approach her.She'd pushed him off, despite being weaker.He'd been about to argue about it when something had apparently persuaded him otherwise. He didn't know what. One moment he'd been reaching for her arm, and the next he'd been walking in the other direction, which he'd described as strange at the time and still couldn't fully explain.The memory gap he experienced was m

/Selene’s POV/“Get me food, you this man,” I screamed.“Okay okay, we will soon get to the nearest restaurant, just be patience with me, geez why are you acting like my pregnant wife??” He muttered silently and I heard that part and my head spun.“Pregnant?? Could I be???” I thought about the possibility but I shrugged it off.“We're here. What do you want to get? Should I go and get it for you or you'd go by yourself?” He questioned.“Fries and sauce with pancakes and syrup, I don't want to go inside, I'm afraid my stomach may churn,” I ordered and he whipped his head back and for a moment I thought he was going to get a whiplash.“Fries and sauce with pancakes??!!!! Will you eat that together or you'll eat them separately??” He exclaimed and scrunched up his nose in disgust.“I'll be eating them together of course, why are you overreacting as if you haven't heard the sweet combination before?” I asked with irritation dripping from my tone.“I know it's not in my position to ask, but

/Selene’s POV/“Well, congratulations to you, you've successfully hunted for an apartment but you have to make payment so it can validate your hunt as a rented apartment.” He dropped the bomb and I resisted the urge to jump up in excitement.“Can I check out the apartment first before making payment?” I inquired and bounced my knee in anticipation of what he was going to say, June too was listening and rubbing her hands while we were in suspense about what will happen.“Yeah, sure. You can do an apartment check before paying the money.” He reassured and June’s racing heart come to a halt when she heard that, she shrieked and asked for the location and area of the apartment.“Oh, it's just a few blocks away from Cerize restaurant.” He muttered and June squeaked and cover her mouth making me glance in her direction.“Okay, what time is suitable for you to meet up?” I inquired.“It's already late, so how about we meet tomorrow morning, if we can meet early and you pay up immediately, the
