Wanted By The Alphas Background
ATHENA'S POV.I didn't know what to make of his words, or in what direction to think. He knew me? But why didn't I know him. Was I to really believe he knew me just like that? Where did he know me?"You know me. How do you know me?" I asked, and suddenly felt my wrist taken into his large hands. I tried it snatch my hands back, he held it firmly, although even in the firmness of his grip, he didn't let my wrist hurt. "I knew you when we were much younger. Much, much, younger." He replied, rubbing slowly against my wrist with his thumb.What was he doing? Or trying to do?"Much much younger? I'm afraid I do not recall that." I said warily. "That's a time anyone can easily claim to know someone." I added, and he gave a light chuckle."You were my bethrothed. Our marriage had been decided by our fathers a long time ago. It's been so long, but I still remember it. You may not remember it, and I won't pressure you to…""Can I say something?" I asked, and he stopped talking. If he neede
Wanted By The Alphas Starting Afresh
ATHENA'S POV.I was shocked by what he had said. My father had been an Alpha? No way. I had been an Alpha's daughter all along?I began to think of all the misery and pain I had gone through. Did I really have to go through all that? It was so easy to picture me painting in the garden, and having maids feed me strawberries. I could have run around in the field with friends. Balls, ceremonies, and celebrations could have been something I loved. I could see myself in the castle dressed in finery, and running towards my father. That was a life I could have lived, but I didn't get to have such a beautiful life.I didn't want to miserable, and pathetic, crying over something I couldn't change, but it was quite painful. Thinking of everything I had to experience, compared to everything I could have experienced, brought tears to my eyes. "There's no need to cry anymore. However ugly your past may have been, snap out of it, so you can begin to make your future beautiful." He said to me, an
Wanted By The Alphas Being Home
ATHENA'S POV."Welcome party?" I asked him, turning around slowly."Of course. I want everyone to know you're back. The daughter of the Alpha is finally back after years of absence." He replied, and I felt him walk past me gently. "Oh." I was taken aback, and grateful that he actually thought about that. The fact that it was a welcome party, made me even more convinced that I was where I ought to be."What would you want as a gift? You seem to like the garden, perhaps you'd fancy flowers?" He asked, turning me around gently, and placing a flower on my nose. The scent was nice, and seemed to help me relax. Could I really trust this place?It wasn't that things weren't convincing enough, I just had my expectations dashed too many times."Flowers are nice too." I replied, taking the flower from him."Or you want snacks you can munch on?" He asked, and I smiled. "Snacks are okay too." I replied. Alpha Tristan and I spent a lot of time in the garden, and we were served breakfast there
Wanted By The Alphas Being Welcomed
ATHENA'S POV.The maids continued to dress me, throwing compliments my way, as they did, but I couldn't help but feel the anxiety crowd me.It was my party. Mine. The party was for me, so why was I so scared?Maybe it was because I had never had a party held for me in my life, or because I had never had to be the center of attention. The main reason something was taking place. "It's all done." A maid said, and I got up from the chair. However, the dress felt too tight. It had a slit at the back, but was still tight, and that made it hard to walk."I'm sorry. This is a little too tight. I feel so uncomfortable." I voiced out, and there was silence. "But it's beautiful." One of them said, in a voice full of disappointment."It's a party. I will be forced to eat and drink. When I do, it would be easier for the dress to split. I wouldn't want that." I explained further, and they sighed. "That's very fine. We will get you another pretty dress to wear, although these set of jewelries wou
Wanted By The Alphas Loving Home
ATHENA'S POV.All eyes were on me as I spoke, and it gave me nervous chills, which ran up my spine. I moistened my lips to say another word, but couldn't.The fact that I couldn't see them made it worse. If I eventually spoke, would they like the speech? Would they think of it as excellent, or would they wonder what my speech was all about?It felt like I was beginning to breathe too fast, and my dress which was free from the waist down, seemed to suddenly feel too tight. Just then, I felt a hand alight on my shoulder. It was Alpha Tristan. He didn't say a word, but that simple gesture made me feel a lot better. It made me feel everyone else was eager to hear me talk and that they'd accept whatever speech I made. "Honestly, it's… it's an honor to stand before you all today, and I truly appreciate it." I began, and my eyes filled up with tears. "What does being home feel like? Honestly, it feels like the best thing ever. Everything's just so new to me, and the fact that I'm being ac
Wanted By The Alphas The Past
ATHENA'S POV.It was late at night, before I was allowed to get some sleep.I had not only danced with Alpha Tristan, but with some other men, who according to Alpha Tristan, had been dying to meet me. Thereafter, I had eaten in the midst of mothers, who all seemed to have sons they felt I would like.After hours spent in the great hall, the crowd begun to thin out, as people went to rest. "Thank you." I said to the maid, who had helped me bring all my presents to my room.She laid them all on the floor, as I asked her to, and excused herself.Then, I took a long shower, then found my way to the closet, and scanned around for night clothes. I found a light gown, and pulled it on, before making my way back to the bed slowly. Thanks to the maids, who were always in the room. I was able to navigate my way around the room carefully. When I had been dressed, I had heard the voice of the maid bringing me dresses, and had marked the direction from which her voice was coming, as the direc
Wanted By The Alphas Revenge
ATHENA'S POV.My fingers fiddled with each other, as I tried to speak of my painful past.Speaking about it would help me in moving on. It would make me feel better. "I know." Came his reassuring voice, and I felt even more probed to talk. One after the other, I could hear the maids, trying to walk as quietly as they could, past Alpha Tristan and I. They opened the door, and I heard them all leaving. Alpha Tristan had probably signalled to them to leave, since I seemed to be having difficulty in opening up."Thank you, Alpha Tristan.""Call me Tristan, please. The younger you would cringe if she heard you calling me by the Alpha title." He said, and I sighed. "It feels a little awkward.""You'd get used to it. Just keep calling me that way, and you'll feel better." He said, and my smile grew wider. "You don't have to act so tamed now. I don't know much about you, but I'm guessing you used to be a maid. Although I wonder how you could have handled things." He wondered, and I scratc
Wanted By The Alphas Proposal
ATHENA'S POV."You can help me get revenge?" I asked, pulling away from his hug gently. "Yes. I personally feel Jeremy, and your sister ought to feel remorse for the wrong they have done. If your father had been here, he would go nuts over his daughter being treated in that manner. He would not stand for it." He explained, and I felt relief wash over me. I could not help imagining Lorrie realizing I was someone, who was probably more important than she was. The satisfaction from it, would be blissful. But thinking about it again; Lorrie didn't really matter to me. Thanks to her, I had learned to survive in the world, despite being blind. The real people I needed my revenge on were Ragas, and Alpha Jeremy. The both of them needed to suffer for the wrong they had done to me. "Thank you. Thank you, Tristan." I let my gratitude flow in the form of more tears, and he wiped them away. "You'll be fine. You're home now, and we can comfortably think of means to get back at them." He reas
