Our Luna, Our Mate Chapter 28 Ares POV

It hadn't taken long before Eros and I slowly approached the Alpha's Office, as he was just finishing up with Jacob, his son when suddenly out stormed Jacob in all his fury surprising us as he marched away, a glare evident on his face. him

right, ,Athena is OUR mate now. Not his. He lost that privilege when he rejected her. Now the Moon Goddess has blessed her to us' I tell him, not feeling one bit sorry for the Future Alpha. in approval from Zeus, we move to knock on the Alpha's door. "Enter" is the gruff voice of Alpha Paul, Jacob's father.

Taking that as our cue we slowly enter the room. "Ah Alpha Ares, Alpha Eros, to what do I owe this lovely visit? As I'm quite sure you may have heard how I handled my son just now, so hopefully he doesn't decide to keep causing trouble for you" replies Alpha Paul, his eyes looking to the twins who stood before him.

"Well actually, we wanted to talk to you about Maya" replies Eros, wanting to get straight to the point and not draw it out anymore than needed.

"Maya? What about her? She is only an Omega" remarks Alpha Paul, confused.

"We wanted to ask if it was okay for her to return back home with us, to the Mystic Shadow Pack. We know she is just an Omega but she would be a friendly face to have around for Athena" I say to him.

Pausing, Eros and I study his features as he thinks about his next set of words before speaking. "I don't see why not, after all Athena is your mate. If it's Maya you seek, then Maya you shall have although it'll be hard to see her leave Maya deserves to be happy as well and who knows maybe her mate will be at your pack" admits Alpha Paul.

"So.. You agree?" asks Eros in surprise as the Alpha nods his head. "I do," smiles Alpha Paul.

"Thank you Alpha. I promise we'll take good care of Maya" I exclaim, happy we could take her back with us when we left for home.

"For Athena, anything. If only I could have done more for her" whispers Alpha Paul, a sad expression now on his face which confuses us. Chapter 28

I wonder what he meant by that, I wonder as Eros and I continue to stand before the Alpha. But just as I was about to ask, did Kai call out to us through the pack link, urgently telling us to return to the room as something had happened to our mate. With a glance towards Eros, who only nods, we quickly say our goodbyes before turning and rushing back to our room.

"ATHENA" we exclaim, just as Éros and I come running into the room only to receive a hushed whisper. "Shhh, she's sleeping" whispers Emma, who was currently sitting next to our mate, Athena curled up on the couch asleep.
