Chapter 119 Athena's POV

After receiving that phone call from Elise I couldn't have been happier, the need to get away from the pack slowly draining me. And while that meant leaving my children with both of their fathers as well as their grandparents I knew this was something I needed to do for myself.

I can't afford to miss this chance, I mused. Knowing that if I didn't take the offer now, then all I would be doing would be stressing out over Lily until she was found.

"Don't worry love, the kids will be safe here with us, besides you should go and enjoy yourself" replies Ares as if sensing my inner

turmoil.

"Huh?" I say, having not been prepared for that.

"I agree, you've never been able to just do something for yourself, I think Ares is right, you should totally take tomorrow and just go have a girls day. Have some fun and don't let the thought of Lily ruin you as you do." admits Eros, hoping to encourage me into having fun. "But- It's just shopping, how fun can that be?" I ask, having never been able to shop before because I was never allowed to leave the pack grounds before, my uncle always made sure of that.

Blinking at my words, Ares and Eros move to look at me as if I had suddenly grown two heads before slowly asking the one question that had magically popped up within each of their minds. "Shopping? Are you telling us you've never gone shopping before?" asks Eros. Shaking my head no, do I move to reply back, "No. My Uncle would never let me leave the grounds" I admit, now embarrassed by that lone fact.

Catching my uneasiness do Ares and Eros move to change the subject.

"It's okay love, we were only curious" admits Ares with a smile hoping to calm me down.
