Athena Complex Novels & Stories

Iris shook her head vigorously, and both laughed for a second, but again silence swarmed in the room like clouds. "You know, Theia," Iris gently kissed her daughter's temple, "they say it's not wise to name your daughter after the names of the gods. But I did it anyway, you know why?" Athena shook her head, indicating her curiosity. “Because Athena symbolizes love, intellect, and battle strategy,” she sighed deeply. “I always thought you were my little fighter. Maybe I shouldn’t have named you after her, and you wouldn’t have had these many struggles in your life.”

Athena said sounding empathetic. And Luka would respond with a mixture of gratitude and relief, his guard gradually lowering as he confided in Athena about the complexities of their relationship. Unbeknownst to him, Athena's outward empathy was a facade, a tool she wielded to gain his trust, to lull him into a false sense of security.

Athena went back into her chambers and wrapped a cloak around herself before leaving her room. She hurried down the ornate staircase, nearly bumping into one of her servants who immediately jumped out of the way. When she got to the door, the ostiary immediately pulled the door open for her. Indeed, they were men standing at the base of the steps leading to the porch. More than ten of them and they were all able bodied, filled with testosterone that dripped off them in torrents.

She hissed inwardly. Two years had passed, and Athena leave the institution that she's been working on. The General agreed to her decision but with the condition of not joining any other institution that opposes their beliefs. The now fourteen-year-old Aracelli was living under Athena's roof. "Oh! You're home!" Aracelli stopped and greeted the newly arrived Athena. Aracelli has a glass of milk in her right hand while holding an egg-drop sandwich in her left. The side of her mouth is quite full as she takes a bite of her sandwich before the elder twisted the knob of the door and entered the house.

I stopped fiddling with my hands, all my movements; if it was possible, I may have had forgotten to breathe at that moment too. "What do you mean? Jodi, come on? Talk to me..did they forced you to act that way? You're not a fucking robot! Don't do what they tell you to do! Those people out there are a bunch of assholes!" I saw her twitched but it didn't faze her. She remained stoic looking at me without even batting an eyelash. "No. No, Nick the truth is I'm an interpol agent. Me being inside the arena wasn't coincidental. It was all planned; my assignment was to get close to you and expose the compound's location. And I was successful, I guess."

Athena had already accepted everything thus she couldn't withdraw and go back on her words. Besides, it was rare for a person to have two identities so she took it without hesitation because she found it favorable on her side now that she was aiming at something. She got plans and being ZENITH MONROE is a good counter for those who loathed her as Athena Stanford.

Axel stepped towards her taking her hands in his as her eyes went straight to her fathers as he spoke. “Because Athena is pregnant and because your mum already tainted Vanessa’s pup with her own DNA the only way her plan can work is if that pup dies making this pup the first born or if the power is transferred from Athena’s pup to Vanessa’s. She doesn’t care which option she uses, and she will take Athena as a backup”

All the girls look beautiful in their own right. "This is for you queen Thea" the assistant bought a box and presented it to Thea. Thea looked at the red velvet box with surprise and opened it curiously. She gasped with surprise when she found a pair of diamond-studded earrings and a matching diamond pendant inside it. "Beautiful," Ophelia said with aww. "Ya," Thea agreed. She tentatively picked up the pendant and fastened it around her neck. It sits beautifully on her collar bone.

The city blinked below, unaware of the war raging in its shadows. “Status?” she asked, her voice silk wrapped in steel. A young man in a lab coat stood behind her. “Vault EVE-09 is destroyed. All primary data presumed lost.” “Presumed?” He hesitated. “ARES’s signal was detected post-collapse. He’s alive. But so is Subject Athena.” Hekate smiled faintly. “Of course she is. She always survives.” “And the protocol?” “She doesn’t know the trigger,” Hekate said. “But ARES does.”
