/Ashina's POV/
"Athena.....do you remember meeting our mate?" I trailed off because I can't remember and I'm frustrated.
"All your questions will be answered when you father arrives little mate, by the way Fenrir says he want to meet your wolf." He replies.
"Fenrir? Your Lycan? Want to meet my wolf? No, thank you." I counter back.
"What do you mean by No? I want to meet Fenrir also, I've been dying to meet him...…why are you depriving me of seeing my mate?" Athena snaps and I roll my eye at her because she should know that meeting her mate is not happening soon.
"You know we can't allow him to know our identity, we don't trust him....what if he thinks that we are an abomination and rejects us or worse kills us?" I answer her and she recoil because she knows I'm saying the truth about our identity not being revealed.
"We can trust him, he is our mate.....and I'm very sure he can't reject us, I don't need to transform...you can just give me control for now." Athena bargains.
"Your identity??well whenever you're ready to reveal that to me I'll wait....please just do as she said, give her control...Fenrir is going crazy in my head." He begs me.
"See, if we're going to work you need to stop entering my head." I warn him.
"We'll see about that, I do not take threats lightly little mate….. I take it up as a challenge and you do not want to challenge me ." He counter back.
"Ash, Ash where are you?" My father asks and I know he could have just tracked my scent to my room but he wanted to know if he could come in.
"I'm in my room dad you can come inside." I invite my dad inside.
"Hey, Are you okay?? Hope you're not hurt?" My father rambles while checking my body out for any scratch i burst out in laughter because even if I was scratched, I'll be healed by now….. pecks of being a werewolf.
"Are you insinuating that I'd hurt my mate? I can see your perspective about me haven't changed." My mate directs his speech to my father.
"Your majesty." My father gulps while baring his neck to my mate.
"Can we have a word outside?" My mate asks my father with his neck still bared to him.
"Yes your majesty, please follow me." My father leads the way and I wonder what they want to discuss.
"Little mate I'll be back, behave don't act stupid...….and most importantly do not run away...…you don't want to be chased by a beast or a troll." He warns me.
"Dad you have a lot of explanations to do, I hope you know that." I mention.
"I know and I'll explain everything to you, let me talk to his majesty first." My father replies and walks outside with my mate.
"Athena what do you think they want to talk about?" I ask her.
"How do you want me to know?? I'm trying to tune in the conversation but I think there's a barrier preventing me from doing that." She reports back.
"Athena by chance, do you know about the existence of Lycans." I ask her.
"Ashina how do you want me to know, I don't know if I can remember I used to hear the elders speak of them as nightmares to us then." She remembers.
"I can't remember but I know they used to tell us scary night stories at the market square but I can't remember the Lycan part." I reply her.
"Ashina, it can't be that bad.....I'm sure our mate is a really nice person, I can feel it in my gut and you know my words don't fail." She cajoles.
"Wait....you mean we'll leave our life here in white crescent and follow a stranger to his pack." I ask her because I don't want to leave.
"Ash, it's not like you have anything to lose....you know nobody likes us in this pack...it's all pretense….the only people that likes us is Daciana's family." She reminds me.
"I'm going to miss Daciana, what will I do without my best friend and worse I don't think my dad is going to come with me.....I'll be on my own in an unknown land with hundreds of giants." I mutter.
"You'll be fine and well respected, you have me...besides you're not going there to be trampled on, you're going there to rule them.....they need you." Athena gives her support.
"What if I'm not fit to rule them? What if I can't? What if I fail them?" I ramble on.
"That's too early for you to worry about that, and you're not the only one doing this ....you have Fenrir, our mate and I at your side." Athena encourages.
"You trust our mate so much, at this rate I think it's safe to say you trust him more than Daciana. " I observe.
"I have it in my gut that he can never hurt us and he's here to protect us." She says.
"What are they still discussing?? Athena try tuning them in." I inform her.
"I still can't do that, been trying to tune them in...….I can't even hear shit." She reply me.
"Oh well, isn't this the point where we start packing? Because I don't think our mate is ready to give us time to pack. We're probably going with him today." I confide.
"Yeah…..looks like we should have been with him for a very long time but for some unknown reasons we got separated so I don't think he's gonna let us go...." She trails off.

"Oh damn....how do we start packing?? I really don't know how to go about this." I say to her.
"Just pack up like asif you're going for a vacation." She advises me.
