Athena POVI sat down next to him and looked out the window in silence. I could feel his eyes on me the whole time. He was looking at me with thought, which added to the tension in the air.When I could feel him looking at me from head to toe, it would send shivers down my spine. Even though I tried to look calm, my heart was always beating fast in my chest.We were alone again, and I could tell by the way he looked at me that he was already taking off my clothes in his mind. I gave him a quick glance and saw that he was already looking at me. He was leaning back in his seat, and one of his feet was on one of his knees. His hands were spread out on the hand rest. He appeared to be sitting on a throne. He was looking at me with a strange look on his face that I couldn't put my finger on.His long dreadlocks hung loosely over his shoulder, and a muscle in his jaw was ticking away as he clenched it. When we looked at each other, I got another chill. The dark look on his face made me worr

Athena's POVIn the next few hours, I had no control over myself or my body. Those women were taking care of me in every way. It was so much for me to handle. At one point, I felt like yelling as loud as I could."She's just a puppy," a woman said with a frown as she ran something through my hair and made it smoother. "She still smells like a puppy." I heard one of the women say, "I didn't know the King was taking such young girls." While they were making out with me, I was shocked and wondered if he had really slept with every woman there.Every time I thought he couldn't get any worse, he showed me an even worse side of himself."Whatever it is, I think he picked her up because of how she looks," one of the women said, giving me a very critical look that made me feel even worse about myself.I wanted to leave, and I even tried to run away a few minutes ago, but these women don't seem like normal women. I knew they weren't people, but I also knew they weren't lycans.They were magica

Athena's POVI told Lupe how I got to the festival in the end. She and the other girls were all shocked and happy to hear this. I told them about Zeifa, and they were very interested in what I had to say. I don't know when it happened, but soon we all got used to each other. It soon seemed like we were long time friends.Lupe told me, "Your hair and make-up are done, but they are still making your dress." She told me, "You're taller than us, so none of our clothes fit you," and I agreed. Lupe offered to show me around when I wanted to ask what they were going to make me wear. I said yes without even thinking about it because I still wanted to get out of that place.I thought at first that it was just a small wing of the castle where these women would be locked up, but it turned out that it was a whole floor of the castle just for them. Everyone there was a woman. I did see a few men here and there, but Lupe told me they were eunuchs.The whole place was split up and given to different

Athena's POVIn fact, the night was interesting. There was a very different feeling there. Even though the midwinter festival was being celebrated in his kingdom this morning, it was nothing compared to what happened in the court. The people in the court were the only ones who could eat, drink, dance, play games, and see other shows.It was a whole different world there, and for a moment I did forget about Zeifa and the people who would find me there. I didn't feel any worry at all. That night, I was totally caught up in everything. I would have been lying if I said I didn't enjoy myself there.I really liked it!No matter who or what they were, those women knew what they were doing. They really knew how to make people have fun without doing anything sexual. Surely, each of them was very skilled. They were wonderful.At the beginning of the night, there was music and dancing. Then it was time for the drinking games. Otsana was a great host, and I couldn't ignore the fact that she had

"Because you're not pretty!" Lucian's cold voice not only cut right through the dark she-heart, wolf's but it also made the four shadowy beings watching them from a distance gasp.They held their breath and watched as Lucian pushed the she-wolf quickly through the portal.Otsana's hands were balled up. She had never been more angry at Lucian than she was now. She had a hard time believing that he could say something like that for a moment. Otsana had heard it all. She had heard Lucian question a woman's strength and intelligence, but she had put up with his extreme views until now. This, however, was a completely different crime, and he had the nerve to say it to his friend. She was just a small puppy who didn't do anything wrong."I can make his drink bad. It would be simple for everyone, "Otsana made a move. Fowol sighed next to her, and Aphrodite made a laughing sound. While that was going on, Eros was busy picking out the sharpest arrow from his quiver."That wouldn't help at all.
The King's Rebel Chapter 23
Athena's POVLocros gave me a cup of lotus tea and said, "Here." I picked up the cup and looked at the hot brown liquid that was steaming in it. As my hands shook, small ripples came to the surface of the liquid. Locros put his hand under the cup to steady it, then took the cup and put it to my lips. I only took a very small sip. Even though the hot tea burned my tongue, I didn't do anything about it.Locros did notice it, though. He still had that strange look on his face as he puzzledly looked at me and blew on my tea to cool it down a bit. During that time, his eyes never left me. We were in my wing's small kitchen at the time. After calming me down and wiping away my tears, he carried me here. Even though I looked calm on the outside, I was still bleeding inside from the wound Lucian had given me.I would sometimes let out a small sob, and tears would run down my face. Locros would worry even more, and he would always reach out to wipe away my tears. He tried hard to make me feel

Athena's POV"He told me that he didn't want me because I'm ugly!" My words lingered for a while in the empty room and rang in both of our ears.The Queen's dark blue eyes kept staring at me for one more second. She lost it when she finally understood what I was saying."What?" She did. I heard the disgust in her voice right away.Was I the target? Was she also turned off by me?"He told me he didn't want me because I'm ugly!" I spoke again. I had no idea that my words could hurt me over and over again. I cried by myself.Part of me couldn't believe I was crying over such a small thing. Someone hadn't called me that for the first time. People did tell me I looked different when I was young, but it never hurt me this much.The only thing that made this hurt more was that my mate said this was why she didn't want to be with me. It was both very stupid and awful, but he was telling the truth, right? A small voice spoke inside me. I shook it off right away because I didn't want it to be r
The King's Rebel Chapter 25
Athena's POVI didn't know what the Queen was going to do to make Lucian pay, and she didn't give me any hints about what she was going to do. She only told me not to think about him too much. She made sure I had enough things to do around the palace to help me with this.Even Locros stopped asking me the same question over and over after a few days of pleading and fighting. Even though I knew he hadn't yet given up.The Queen's plan to keep me busy around Zeifa so I wouldn't have time to hang out and think too much about a certain lycan worked. In fact, it went very well.I didn't realize that it had been a few months since the event. Everything seemed to be getting back to normal, and I did feel normal most of the time, but there were times when my feelings and thoughts about what had happened caught me off guard.I was lying in bed one night, waiting to fall asleep. Even though I had worked all day and was very tired, sleep was nowhere to be found. I was tired, but not so tired tha
