It was bright outside so Dimitri had opted to stay inside his mansion. This mansion was located in the thick of the woods and surrounded by tall trees with stratas that covered almost every part of the building. This was their base and where they planned most of the time. Dimitri's boot left thuds in his wake as he paced about in his large sitting room. Two men were seated on a couch before him and they waited for him to speak. "She's not returned since last night and it's getting me worried." "I understand. Have you checked to see if your mind is still linked to her?" One of the men asked. "It's broken,"Dimitri said with disappointment in his voice. "I couldn't connect back to her. They already walked into her mind." "That's fucked up, Dimitri. How are we going to attack again? They seem to become smarter each time we attack," Dimitri sighed. "We need to devise another means." "How about Trey?" Dimitri scoffed. "He's as stupid as anything. I wonder
Rise of Athena Chapter 118
Ciara's eyes cracked open and when she stared out of the window, she noticed that it was already day time. She felt a bit energized but there was a general weakness in all of her joints. Knowing that she would be alright if she climbed out of bed, she threw back her covers and climbed out of her bed. The first thing that caught her eyes was a tray filled with food. She raised a brow in confusion as to why there was a tray of food sitting on the bedside table not until she remembered that Daniel had promised to get her breakfast. She slapped her forehead in frustration. She had probably gone into a deep sleep as she was sure that Daniel had brought her the food and had probably tried waking her up to no avail. The food had gone cold and Daniel was nowhere to be found so she threw on a robe and walked out of the room. She noticed that the corridor was quite empty as everyone if the guests that had been at the party last night had all gone home. Remembering that she had

Alexander and Athena stared at three of the men. They had already found the culprit but out of anger, Athena had asked that they locked the three men up. Tomorrow was going to be the day of execution and the culprit would be called out. The men had been thrown into the dungeon as Athena had commanded and after that, she had called for a meeting with the cabinet members. Damien sat beside her as usual but on her other side was Alexander so she was flanked by the two men. Damien had been silent and only speaking when he was asked to. He never made any suggestions whatsoever. "We have to fortify the building. Human technology isn't enough," Jayman said. Jayman was the new minister for security and he had been appointed by Athena. "And what is your suggestion, Jayman?" Athena asked in her authoritative voice. "I suggest that we include spiritual means into this whole security of a thing. The walls, electricity and cameras are not enough. We need some sort of magi
Rise of Athena Chapter 120
The meeting had ended in a heated argument and Alex had left angrily. He walked out of the hall angrily as he thought about why a bunch of old stupid men were chosen to be cabinet members. It was absolutely ridiculous and he was going to speak to Athena about it after the meeting. She needed young blood mixed with a few older men who knew what progress meant. Shaking his head, he took the steps up the first floor. He was so deep in thought that he didn't see one of the maids coming down the steps with a pile of laundry that covered her face. The clash was disastrous as the tall pile of clothing fell down the steps. The maid lost footing but Alexander was quick to grab her by the waist to stop her from stumbling down the stairs. "Oh my goodness!" The lady squeaked as she grabbed Alex's arms for support. "I'm sorry, I didn't see you coming," Alex said as he stood her up properly. "Kali?" He recognized her from her sheer green eyes and plump lips he had enjoyed kissi
Rise of Athena Chapter 121
Ciara decided that after having lunch with Heyli, she needed to show the little girl around while also taking a walk to stretch her legs. She hadn't seen Daniel all afternoon and it seemed like he was really busy so she decided that spending a little time with Heyli wasn't a bad thing after all. After lunch, both women took a walk around the garden and Ciara almost bled her ears out from listening to Heyli gush about the beauty of the garden. The next place she took Heyli to was the training grounds. "This place is where warriors train?" Heyli asked. "That's smart of you,"Ciara commended. She made sure to sprinkle compliments here and there. Heyli seemed to have been starved of it from a young age and it was a way to build her confidence. "This is where warriors train every morning and evening. They're all gone to their duty posts. The first set trains in the morning while the second set does the morning shift and vice versa. They also interchange. Would you like to join?"

From where Damien stood talking with Daniel, they heard the piercing scream come from inside the palace. Damien's ears perked up immediately. "That's King Athena," Daniel said. "I have to go." Damien said quickly and hurried off. Daniel followed after him. Alex was also speaking with Kali when he heard her scream and immediately, he left the garden and bounded up the steps, his destination, Athena's chambers. When he got to her door, he began knocking but there was no response. He kept on knocking till he got tired and pushed the door open. Athena was standing in front of the shattered pieces of glass before her vanity table. Her hands were wrapped around her slender frame as she stared at the pieces of glass. "Athena?" Alex said as he slowly moved towards her. "Don't come close to me. Just leave," Athena said in a firm voice. She sounded pissed. "I need to explain things to you, please. Just listen to me this one time." When she turned to
Rise of Athena Chapter 123
Heyli was standing before an impressive man. Even on his seat, she knew he was a tall, intimidating man. Harrison had taken her to his office before leaving and she stood there for about two minutes before he finally gave her attention. "Why haven't I ever seen you here in Antarti?" The man asked as he studied her small frame. He had pinched lips and the most intimidating set of brown eyes she had never seen. Somehow, she saw the strictness of her father in this man. Heyli moved from one foot to another as she thought about what to say. She decided that lying was going to save her. She'd have to tell Ciara about it. "I'm related to Queen— King Athena!" Heyli said and blushed in embarrassment as she corrected herself. The man raised a brow at her as he wrote down something in a book. He sighed and leaned back on his chair before speaking. "What do you say is your name again?" "Heyli." "Just that?" Heyli nodded and fiddled with the hem of her shirt
Rise of Athena Chapter 124
Ciara stood to her feet. "You know that's not possible," Alex shrugged and watched Ciara go into the palace before standing to his feet and bounding down the porch steps, his destination, the dungeon. Ciara found Athena sitting in the sunroom. Athena seemed to want her own privacy at this time but Ciara had no option than to disrupt it. Athena felt another presence beside her and immediately turned to see Ciara standing at the door with an envelope in her hand. "Come in, will you?" Athena said with a welcoming voice. Ciara nodded and did as she was told. Athena gestured for her to take a seat and Ciara did so. Both women smiled awkwardly at each other. "What brings you here?" Athena asked as she sipped from her cup of tea. Ciara slid the golden envelope across the table over to Athena who took it and felt the texture of the envelope. She rubbed the edges and her fingers ran over the seal before she looked up to Ciara who was waiting for her to say som
