Our Luna, Our Mate Chapter 55 Athena's

POV

We don't have much of a choice in the matter" is all I he from Eros, knowing fully well that both of my mates hated Jacob, just as much as Artemis did, except for different reasons, ours being that he rejected us for my cousin Diana. This is going to be bad' I murmur to Artemis, knowing that nothing good ever happens between Alpha's. At least with those we hated. Like Jacob. Agreed. Maybe we should have gone on alone' whispers Artemis, weighing our options that laid

before us.

"Are you nuts? They would be even angrier if we tried to approach Jacob all on our own' I say, scolding her for even suggesting that. "They'd still be angry regardless' remarks Artemis, not seeing the logic behind my words.

Groaning, I moved to ignore her for the time being, my attention now on my mates as we moved in the direction of Jacob, who by the way was currently outside waiting for us. The Servants not trusting him enough to let him into the packhouse 'Do you blame them?' scoffs Artemis as if making a point.

'Do you mind. If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say it at all' I say, finally having just about enough of her at the moment.

Taking in her pause, I move to speak again, 'Look, I know you hate him. I hate him too for obvious reasons, but for now can we at least see what he has to say before we attack him? He's still Alpha of the Moon Walker Pack' I add quickly, before she could think of a comeback.

Sighing, she refuses to speak, only hanging close to me in case I needed her. 'Sorry' she mutters eventually. Smiling, I know she meant it before returning my attention back to the task at hand. Jacob. Biting my lip, I couldn't help but admit I was nervous when it came to seeing Jacob again. Please, let this visit go smoothly, I plead to the Moon Goddess, just as Jacob slowly comes into view, having walked on ahead of my mates, as they walked ever so slowly behind me with their father and Alpha.

"Jacob, Hell-" I start only to be cut off as Jacob grabs me by the throat, officially cutting off words, as my hands claw at his hands as I try to pry them away from me, struggling to breath as 1

I cry in hopes she'd be able to help me. Artemis, trying to help me but unable to for some apparent reason. Coughing, I begin to feel my vision clouding only to be yanked away suddenly as Jacob is now laying sprawled out on the ground. Eros and Ares now in wolf form and growling rather angrily.

Smirking, Jacob moves to continue, taunting my mates a little more only for Alarick to finally speak up. "ENOUGH! All of you. Ares, Eros, go get some clothes on, NOW! Jacob, follow me.
