Chapter 64: Suspicious

Athena exhaled harshly, after she shut the door on its hinges.

She glared at her shaking hands.

Hadn’t she planned for this? So, why was the thought of battle over her children making her sweat?

Athena shook her head. She needed to submit her body to an intensive work out, to remind it of what she had gone through the first year, after her exile—without help from anyone, apart from the friend Gianna had directed her to.
