~AthenaThe tone of Richard's voice, though calm, hinted at a problem. He was different. The man talking to me right now was not the same man I knew. This was the first time I was seeing this part of him."Are you there?" he called out, wanting to make sure he still had my attention."Yes, I am," I managed to say, my voice coming out a bit hoarse as there was a lump in my throat."Okay, I would go straight to the point," he stated matter-of-factly.My heart went into my mouth."I just got a call from Jessica," he paused.I swallowed hard, knowing where the discussion was headed."According to her, there is an urgent matter I need to attend to. She has even involved the council members. That woman is really getting on my nerves at this point," his voice was hard as he said his last words.I kept quiet, not knowing how to respond."Why are you quiet, Athena?" he asked.I thought hard about how best to reply to the question; the best I could come up with was, "Nothing really, I am just w

~AthenaEveryone rose to their feet as soon as Richard and I walked in and bowed curtly in greeting. I stared at the faces that stared back at us. Sabrina and Jessica were together, occupying the two front seats on the right-hand side. The two front seats on the left were empty. Shrewd-looking elders filled the seats from the second row to about the sixth one.I could feel several pairs of eyes glaring daggers at me. If only looks could kill, I would have probably dropped dead the second I walked in.I looked at the podium, and there were two seats there. This was my first time being in the conference room. I wondered whether there had always been two thrones or if another was added because I was going to be here today.The room was painted white and had two windows draped with beautiful blue curtains. The ceiling was very high with a chandelier dangling in the middle, being the most prominent source of light illuminating the room. Other tiny fluorescents surrounded the four corners o

~ RichardAthena asked me to go and apologize to Sabrina for what happened in the conference room. I told her I was going to do that later, but she insisted I find Sabrina and do it at that moment, as leaving it to prolong might foster animosity in her heart towards me and, in extension, towards her too.I went outside hoping to see Sabrina lurking around somewhere or just basking in the sun like she loves to, but she was nowhere in sight. I even asked James and Michael, who were outside, if they had perhaps seen her around; they all answered in the negative.There was now only one place she could be: her room.I decided to go up to her room and apologize. Just after I had apologized and she accepted amidst tears, I pulled her in for a comforting hug, and that was when it happened.She covered my lips with hers, causing my eyes to grow wide. Her lips were so soft and succulent. I opened my mouth to hers and savored it for a bit. Her hand slid down to my manhood, which had become hard a

~AthenaBlissful days passed, and finally, the long-awaited day arrived: the day of the feast. The garden was bustling with a large number of people, with lots of food and drinks served to pack members. It was a very busy day for the members of staff.The day before, I had helped Ms. Sandra in selecting the different types of food that would be on the menu, and the cooks had gone to work preparing it. I had also assisted with menial jobs in the kitchen. Richard, James, and Michael had made sure all the drinks that would be needed were supplied in large quantities.To my surprise, even Jessica and Sabrina had helped as well. They assisted in the decorations of the garden where the pack members would stay and even inside the large hall in the mansion where the king, his council members, and some dignitaries in the pack would be served during the celebration.All hands were on deck. Everyone saw to it that the celebration would be a success. Sabrina had been suspiciously nice to me in th

~SabrinaI blinked as his words sank in. James? In love with me? I stared right at him in confusion as I tried to make sense of everything.He ran his hand through his lush, thick brown hair and pinned me with a subtle gaze as he added, "I have been in love with you since we were kids, right from the moment I was old enough to know what love was." He swallowed and managed a nervous smile, one I didn't return as I was still in a state of surprise, trying to soak it all in.It all finally made sense. All those times I got treated specially by James, it wasn't just because we were close childhood friends as I had thought; it was because he loved me.The realization hit me like a ton of bricks. I already knew what my response would be, but I didn't know how to break it to him. I didn't know how to tell him that I was in love with someone else. I didn't know how to tell him that I have never seen him as anything but a friend. Those revelations will shatter him.Despite being someone who s
