Chapter 87 Athena's POV

2 Months Later

It has officially been 2 months since the war with Ezra and the Rogues and while many lost their lives, many had been given second chances. Including that of the girl that I had been looking for during that time, as she had been hiding in the forest, too scared to fight even though she really couldn't as she was only 16 and didn't have a wolf yet for apparently when she had become a Roque, she had been really young, her parents both being from a small pack that had eventually been destroyed by Ezra including the girls parents forcing hey to join his pack.

So when finding the girl did I eventually move to approach her, her body shaking like a leaf.

"Please don't kill me whimpered the girl the closer I got to her.

"Don't worry, no ones going to kill you, you're safe here" I tell her, my eyes still locked with hers. "Do you remember who I am?"

Watching her nod, does she move to speak. "Y-Yes... your Luna Athena, that girl that King Ezra was always hurting" replies the girl still

scared.

Nodding, I move to smile warmly at her. "That I am, and since you know who I am, would you please tell me who you are?" I now ask, wanting her to feel safe with me.

"I-I'm Seraphine but many just call me Sera" answers Seraphine who was beginning to relax around me.

"Hello Sera, that's a pretty name, how old are you?" I ask.

"16" was all she said, causing Artemis to growl.

"Yes" then with that she moves to take my hand, drawing a small welcoming smile to my face as I move to lead her back towards the others. Except upon returning, do

she doesn't have her wolf yet' I quickly add, knowing he would probably ask as I hear

like this' I tell him,

while the bond isn't complete due to age and wolf, I'm still able to sense it even if she can't admits Rick, his eyes now soft as he looks at the girl. "Mate? That's

your mates are 23 so even though she's 16 I at least have the patience to wait until she's 18 remember wolves stop aging at 30, so being older doesn't matter it's when the Moon Goddess decides it's time for you to have a mate or not remarks Rick for even though he was indeed older by almost 10 years, he knew she was his, his wolf could sense the faint bond between them,

my eye, I chose to ignore the little girl bit for my uncle was right, only the Moon Goddess could determine when and how you got your mate or if you were even worthy of having one in which my uncle was clearly

big day, except I'm not so sure about these little one" I say with a giggle my hands coming to rest on my baby bump, my tummy having stopped growing as I now counted down the days until I gave birth, a birth in which could happen almost any day or at least that was what my
