Chapter 5

"D-daughter of Hades?

.... I thought you said they get rid of all the children of the Great 3... wh-whats wrong with me?"

My voice was trembling, betraying my former confidence with fear.

"Do not worry Sarina, there is nothing wrong with you. They most likely allowed you to exist because you are my Mate, the future queen, and they would like you to be as stron- actually probably stronger, than I am."

It took me a minute to process all of that, I'm going to be a queen, I'm going to be as strong as a God, my father is Hades.

This all didn't even make sense.

I came out of my thoughts to an amused Alexander.

"What's so funny Alexander?"

"You're very beautiful when you're lost in thought, did you know that?"

I tried to resist the searing blush rushing to my cheeks, but it was inevitable, even though I didn't like this man much.

"Back to business, we have to get you back up and walking, and then training.

Now that your powers have been awakened from their dormancy it's key to make sure they're under control.

You are extremely powerful, and during this period you are also extremely volatile.

Please be careful agápi mou. "

His eyes went from stern to sincere in a matter of seconds, making my heart melt even more.

"Okay."

"Okay?" He repeated, a gorgeous smile erupting on his face.

'I think I wanna be the cause of that smile... I want to see that beautiful smile a lot more'

*Well I'll make sure you do*

Another voice came up in my head...

'What. The. Hell.'

"I forgot to tell you, I can hear your thoughts unless you put up a mental block. The part of me linking back to you was triggered when your powers awakened. "

But his voice didn't seem like it was in my head. It felt like it was invading my ears from an outside source.

This was becoming more and more peculiar.

*It's like putting up an imaginary wall, it'll take some time to get used to, but I promise I won't listen.... most of the time*

He had a mischievous smile laden on his face.

'Why is he so mysterious'

*Everything with be revealed with time*

"CRAP," I said out loud, not able to restrict it.

"Alexander. STOP LISTENING TO MY THOUGHTS!"

The purple smoke erupted again, but this time it wasn't towards Alexander, I was only speaking to him playfully, it was towards something next to the door.

I had caught it in the corner of my eye multiple times in the last five minutes, as if it was watching us, waiting for the moment to pounce.

"Agápi Mou? Darling, what did you see?"

His eyes traced my line of vision and he saw what I was angry at. It was a white goblin, everybody, even the mortals, know that those are evil.

Mortals know to stay away, and the Wolf-Bornes will kill them, but I couldn't hold back.

"Oh my. What do we have here, don't tell me- Ah it's a pawn of the Cretans." He turned to me, mischief lining his gorgeous blue orbs.

"The Cretans are a species that are like Wolf-Bornes, but without a Monarch to keep them in check."

I was amused to say the least, but Alexander made the mistake of turning his back.

The white Goblin immediately got up and attempted to attack him.

What surprised me the most was how my powers reacted.

This time they didn't shoot out of my hands, my fingers made a snapping noise and it appeared, erupting from the underworld.

"DO. NOT. TOUCH. MY. MATE." I said, my powers only becoming more intense.

My body reacted by itself, I couldn't control it. He had a creepy smirk on his face, but I was too busy trying to control myself to pay much mind to it.

"

Agápi Mou. Eínai nekrós, boreí na eísai akóma. exakoloutheíte na eíste árrostos"

(My Love. He is dead, you may be still, you are still sick)

His fluent Greek was somehow understood by me and I stopped, but when I did I felt so drained, as if I had been running for years.

"Syngnómi," I said, before involuntarily falling asleep in his arms. (I'm sorry)

———•

For the next couple of days Alexander stayed with me in my chambers.

Just talking and reading with me. Telling me stories about the wolf-bornes.

Entertaining me and constantly giving me a purple elixir even though I was completely healed.

I didn't question him though, he was my mate, what harm could he do.
