Alex, when he finally surfaced, glared at her. "You're going to regret this!" He called out from the top of his voice. Athena burst into laughter. "Of course, I know." Alex glared playfully at her and swam a little before turning back to look up at her. "What are you waiting for? To be pushed?" Athena looked down at the water. She could see jagged rocks at the edge of the water and somehow, she became nervous. How had she pushed Alex so spontaneously that she hadn't seen that dangerous spot? They were lucky that he hadn't hit the wrong place. Athena could imagine his brains being washed away by the water stained with blood. "I can't," She replied. "Why?" "Those sharp rocks. What if I hit my head and die?" Alex facepalms and bursts into laughter. "You literally pushed me. Why didn't you think of that then?" Alex was looking at her. She looked like a little child and was absolutely adorable. "I didn't see it. I'm just seeing it now." "Do you know how to swim?

Alexander cradled her in his arms and slapped her cheek lightly but there was no response from her. Alex was getting worried. He lay her gently on the ground and lowered his head onto her bare chest. She was breathing quite fine but she was still unconscious. Then he placed both hands on her chest and began to push. Water spurted out of her mouth in small quantities and after a while, she coughed violently and her face reddened as her body jerked upwards. He immediately lifted her up in his laps. "Athena?" She slowly opened her eyes and looked at Alex before looking around her. She sat up slowly and Alex's hand didn't leave her. "What happened?" Alex sighed and sat back on the floor. "You swam towards the waterfall even after I asked you not to go there! You nearly died!" Athena seemed to still be disoriented. She looked down at her naked body. "How did I get naked?" "You shape shifted," Athena's eyes widened in surprise. "That's not true, Alex. I don't
Rise of Athena Chapter 202
Athena began by untying the ropes around his waist that were used to hold his shorts. She has no idea where the confidence was coming from but she felt it had been fuelled by the brief caresses he had given her. His thumb brushed her nipples as she worked on taking off his shorts and she moaned and threw her head back. Alexander brought her hand back to his shorts and she finally untied it and his shorts dropped to the ground, revealing him in his naked glory. Athena felt her breath quicken. She had never been attracted to a male body before but he scared her shitless. She stared at him for a long time, marking those crevices, the dips, the taut muscles and the slight hair that peppered on his chest. She placed her hand on his chest and felt his rapid heartbeat. She could also hear it vividly. She could hear how quick his breath was and it was vivid, like he was breathing directly on her. Her hand grabbed onto his waist and pulled him to her. She looked down at his p

"What papers, Heyli," Kayla asked. She hadn't forgotten that Loki talked about her signing some papers and she had been meaning to ask Heyli that question for a while now. They were just stepping out of Kayla's house and Heyli had met her mother for the first time. She thought the woman was a nice woman. Fashionable and really beautiful. A total opposite of Kayla. Kayla was more of a warrior though she had that facial beauty of her mother. "Uhm, Athena wants me to be her adoptive sister," "But that's not possible." Kayla asked in confusion. "I've only heard of parents adopting children." "Same here," Heyli shrugged. "I'm guessing she was able to manipulate it in her favor due to her status," "That's right," Kayla nodded. "Well, I hope it works between you both. People have spoken about the King as someone who's cold hearted and emotionless. Is she that way?" "I used to think she was but recently, she has been softening towards me and I got to understand her bette

Loki stood here, frozen for a moment as he tried to make sense of what was happening before him. "What did Bianca tell you?" "Exactly what I'm asking you. She's carrying your baby?" Heyli asked. Her voice sounded so harsh. "You shouldn't listen to her," Loki said and walked to his closet to take out a shirt. "We've not confirmed if the baby is mine, yet," Heyli laughed. "Wow. That's terribly great. So you pretend that you and Bianca aren't a thing so you can also have a thing with me? I am familiar with your game, Loki," "I told you the truth. And what's with me wanting to be a thing with you?" He laughed as he shrugged into his shirt. Heyli felt a pang of pain in her chest but she stood tall. She wasn't going to let him see or read anything or even hear her heartbeat. "Bianca says you like me." "Heyli, Bianca is just trying to brainwash and confuse you. Stop listening to her, please. I beg of you," "Why did you let me kiss you back there?" "It was a mi

"I can't believe we are attending the Royal Hunting Ceremony!" Kayla squealed as she sat on Heyli's bed. Melodie was helping Heyli pack up for the trip and Heyli was going through a catalog. She was seated at her vanity table and looking quite worried. "When is Nina going to arrive?" Kayla shrugged. "She said she was going to come so let's hope she actually does." Heyli sighed. "I am more worried about her coming than this whole trip. I need to make things up to her." "Well, I am more concerned about that kiss you shared with Loki," Melodie sang. Kayla glared at her. "You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to, Heyli," Heyli shook her head and dropped the catalog on the vanity table before standing to her feet. "I need to go check. Nina must have arrived and she's probably confused on how to get to my room," Kayla and Melodie watched their worried friend leave. "She looks different. Not herself." Melodie said. "Must be the kiss. Nothing else.

"Have you noticed the strained relationship between your sister and Loki lately?" Loki asked as he stood in front of the car they were going to be leaving in. Athena was seated inside the car already and she poked her head out to see what he was talking about. Heyli was walking to the bus with Kayla and Melodie as she had decided to go with her friends instead of following the Royal entourage. They were talking quite freely and she searched for Loki. He was speaking with one of the warriors. "What did you notice?" Athena finally asked. "They've not been talking a lot. One time, I was in the living room with Heyli and Loki came in to ask if she was going to camp with them on the night before the trip. She outrightly ignored him, stood to her feet and walked out of the room. Loki didn't seem surprised. He looked like he has been asking her this same question several times and when I asked him, he said she was probably mad at him," "Mad at him about what?" Athena asked.
Rise of Athena Chapter 207
Heyli had been able to ignore the looks people were giving her but Nina seated here? That was going to be like walking into hell. She was staring directly at me and that made her uncomfortable as hell. Melodie, who had just come up behind her, saw Nina. "Oh, shit." She muttered. "Hey, Nina," Kayla greeted as she dropped into the space beside her. Nina was seated close to the window and she was going to be in the middle and it was a good thing. At least, Nina wouldn't be glaring daggers at her. "Hey, Kayla," Nina replied in the most unconcerned voice ever and now, Heyli was starting to believe she was causing a rift between the three friends. Come to look at it. Things used to run smoothly between them all before Heyli came into the book and it was actually making her feel guilty right now. "Hey, Nina," Heyli nodded in acknowledgment but Nina turned her face away like she didn't see Heyli. Heyli shrugged and sat before Kayla who nudged her not to feel bad about it.
