Lucas X Athanasia Novels & Stories

“A means to an end. Your power, fully awakened, is the end.” I didn’t wait for more talk. I drew my sword. The rasp of steel echoed. Janita’s head snapped toward me. Her smile widened. “The Lycan,” she purred. “Come to die in the dirt where you belong.” I charged down the last of the stairs. My bad leg buckled on the final step. I went down hard on one knee, the impact shooting nausea up my spine. Janita was on me in a flash, her dagger aiming for my throat.

“Zaphyr—” “She’s with them. The same pack responsible for the attacks last winter. The same filth that tore through the Southern border, killing innocents without warning. You know what they are, Lucy.” Lucy crossed her arms, turning her face away. “She’s alive and for me, that's what matters. And now she’s the fated mate to the new alpha… Thorne. This could be an opportunity.” I laughed dryly. “Opportunity? They’re power-hungry dogs who think territory equals dominance. You really believe Thorne will just… play nice because of her?”

“Rena denies that she had not tried to kick Nixie out of the pack when she returned two years ago. Is that true?” I look at Joshua expectantly. He will tell Elijah the truth. I relax a little, waiting for the truth to come out. But why do I have this bad feeling? “No, I saw her two years ago with the Luna,” Joshua replies calmly, with a subtle smile on his face. “The Luna did threaten her and tell her to leave the pack.” What?! “Joshua, what the hell are you saying?! I didn't even meet Nixie!” I rise from my seat in shock and look at him in disbelief.

This time, Lucas even began to seek an opening on Luna's lips, attempting to slip his tongue into her warm and inviting mouth. Luna's thought was correct; she knew that Lucas wouldn't be content with just a few light pecks. For Lucas, Luna's lips and her entire body had driven him to lose control, making him want to shower his wife with praises. Lucas genuinely admired every aspect of Luna's beauty, as it felt like he was experiencing an unparalleled paradise.

"Jason, you are correct. I'll make sure I have a conversation with her to address any confusion." Jason patted Leo's shoulder and grinned. "Leo, that is the essence. Just keep in mind to exercise patience and understanding. We should respect Anna's limits since she's gone through a lot." "Thank you so much, Jason. I will do as you said. I appreciate your concern a lot." Leo thanked Jason. "You don't need to thank me, Leo. What are friends for? Just follow my advice and clear your doubts." *******

A long stretch of silence descends, whereby Lucas and Damian engage in a stare-off. “Well, I don't know what you want me to say, Lucas.” “I want you to choose someone else.” Lucas instantly responded. “Someone more appealing and presentable to the court.” “Unfortunately, it's too late for that. I've made up my mind, and I'm not changing it.” Damian came close to me. “Aviana is going to be my Luna, and that's final.” Lucas turned to face me like I could change Damian's mind. “This is not going to bode well for you, Lady Aviana.” That was all he said before spinning around on his feet and walking out.

But when spring came the next year, Lucas showed up uninvited. I was holding Leon's hand, buying hot dogs at a food stall in the market. Leon's eyes sparkled as he took happy, hungry bites. But when he looked up, he locked eyes with Lucas, who was staring at us longingly. The hot dog Leon was holding dropped to the ground, and his grip on mine tightened suddenly. I stepped in front of him and looked at Lucas with displeasure. "What are you doing here?" Lucas' gaze lingered on my face for a few seconds, then shifted to Leon's. Seeing our guarded expressions, he smiled bitterly. "Anna, I've missed you so much."

I told Alec who was trying hard to keep his anger in check but it seems he was beyond angry with his pup for keeping finding his mate from him. "Get a hung of that aura of yours pup, you are hurting my mom."came an authoritative voice acompanied by an inmerse aura that made Alec submit. "Gush who could be so powerful"Alec asked as he bare his neck in submission.The pressure was redrew after Alec fully submitted. "Took you enough resisting pup"came Luci's voice as I looked to see Cas's confused expression and Lucy's smirk."What!,did she just force Alec into submission?"I thought staring at Jane who had a proud amusing smirk on her face as she stared at Lucy with approval.

"You ruined me! You took everything away from me!" She suddenly moved closer. As if she thought of something, she added with frenzied, smug joy, "Lydia, you don't think you can really be Andes' Luna, do you? Tell me. Will he still love you if I told him that your body has been thoroughly used up?" I quietly looked at her, wanting to say something, but I was so speechless that I had nothing to say. This was how she had been harming others all along. My piercingly cold gaze made Serina increasingly guilty. Her eyes darted away, and she instinctively took a half-step back.
