Novel & Cerita Old Queen Athena

The king spoke, "We need to find Sophie as soon as possible. Because if Sophie is really in Zack's hands, she's really in danger. Because Zack might be doing the onerex right now," Onerex? What's that? This is the first time I've heard those words. "What onerex are you talking about, father?" Drake asked. "Onerex is a ritual performed on half-vampire creatures," said the king. "To the legendary goddesses who are half vampires," said Alexa.

I'm not ready to handle her cause she's like a pain in the ass. Athena walks in. She wears a dark blue dress with straps and her dress has a V-neck which exposes her toned cleavage. She's beautiful, perfect and she fits into my dark personality. Athena was supposed to be my slut. She fucks me when I want to be fucked and it has been casual not until my father decided to be best friends with Athena's father who is a Godfather of his crime family. Athena is the only girl amongst three brothers. She's tough and she's vicious. Something I like in a woman.

Its marble steps glimmer faintly under the morning sun, pale and solemn. I approach the small altar, kneeling before it. The incense curls around me, rising in slow spirals that twist into the air like whispers meant only for the heavens. Sandalwood and jasmine fill my lungs, familiar and calming, yet unable to quiet the storm inside me. The priest is already there. He is old—older than anyone living in this palace, it seems. His hair falls like pale silver threads across his shoulders, and his eyes hold a depth that makes my chest tighten whenever they settle upon me.

“Get out.” She slowly stood, but before she left she started laughing. I got confused. Why is she laughing all of a sudden? “You should enjoy the palace while you can.” She said. I frowned slightly. “What does that mean?” Athena shrugged casually. “Oh… didn’t you know?” Her eyes sparkled with satisfaction. “The Queen Mother is already preparing to replace you.” The words made my heart skip. “She’ll throw you out soon enough,” Athena continued sweetly. “Once she realizes you can’t give her the heir she wants.”

The intense moonlight bathed me, and the sacred mark on my neck pulsed with a blinding, silver light. The crescent seemed to come alive, the ancient runes swirling around it like a celestial river, emitting an aura of divine, untouchable power. "It's... it's real..." an elder Alpha stammered, his voice shaking. "She truly is... the Luna Queen..." "What have we done to the Luna Queen?" "Gods... we're all going to die..." Fear spread through the crowd like wildfire. Ronan gently cupped my face, his eyes a storm of rage and heartbreak.

Maxim POV Holy mother goddess… What am I witnessing right now?! Athena is shifting. At the age of 17, which should be impossible. And her wolf has red eyes instead of black. If she even is a wolf, that is... If I am to believe the men in front of me, she isn’t. But, what is she then? What are they?

I exchanged glances with James again, who was as utterly confused as I was. My brows furrowed. "Is this some kind of a joke, woman!?" "Your Majesty, Athena is in trouble. You are the only one who can save her. She sent me to you," she said bitterly amidst tears. I laughed dryly. "Your daughter must think me stupid," my gaze darkened as I glared at her and growled, "you both must think me a fool!" In an instant, I covered the distance between us, suspending her body in the air with my clawed hand wrapped around her throat.

He gave me a soft smile, making me return a shy smile. “You know, in Greek mythology, Althaia was the Queen of Calydon, and a woman of fierce passion. She is celebrated in an ancient story about the fate of her son, Meleager. When he was born, the Moirai, or the Fates in English, came to foretell his future, and they predicted he would die as soon as one of the sticks in the fireplace burned out completely. When Althaia heard that, she pulled the stick from the fire, put the fire out, and hid it in a safe place.”

I just smile at her direction then she managed to give an order to her minions to do something. The car door was opened, then her foot came out first, which was old and wrinkled. I don't know what she is putting in herself to fight against old age. But it was visible already. Athena, didn't I just say to hold in your evil horn, right? The second time you meet with her, maybe you can correct the mistakes you did in the past. And I hope she already put that in her past also. Huhuhu. *hik.

The King stuttered out. “Celeste saved my life by making me the Moon Goddess.” I said nonchalantly. Athos started to take a few steps towards me before I heard Koa let out a low warning growl. I held my hands up, one to each of them to tell them to both stop. “Do not come near me Athos. I have seen your true colors and you are…well words that a Goddess shouldn’t speak. As for you missy,” I turned to look at Koa, “You should know better. History will NOT repeat itself. Do you understand me?”
