Our Luna, Our Mate Chapter

Athena's POV

After parting ways with Maya, I slowly make my way towards the dining hall and to where my family would be waiting for me as I had been told by uncle that I was needed to attend, for what I had no clue just that I had to be there or else. 'Any idea as to why we're needed' I moved to ask Artemis once more, hoping she would have an

answer.

Unfortunately I do not answers Artemis as I continue on my way, unaware of all the attention I was receiving.

"My, My, look at what the cat dragged in or should I say wolf" purrs a voice, causing me to halt as I turn to see Brian who slowly saunters up to me. "What do you want Brian?" I ask, trying not to cause a scene between us..

"Easy there, wouldn't want me to do something drastic would you?" glares Brian, who had no problem showing me his ability which sends shivers down my spine as I move to reign in my temper. "N-No...

At the mention of David and Shane, I can't help but shiver as they were both next in line to be Gamma and Delta just as Brian was next in line to be Beta which made those three a powerhouse. "Please..." I whimpered, not wanting to be touched by them as Brian continued to hold my face. "Please what" growls Brian, his grip now holding tighter as his eyes narrow slightly.

"Please.. I'm a good girl" I tell him, hoping he would spare me tonight like he had done the day before when I spent almost the entire day decorating the ballroom..
