It was the next day and yesterday was repeating.
I was late, once more.
Yesterday, she wasn't there so I didn't have any issues but today, I don't know what happened. I was being lazy and cleaning extremely slow.
I pushed open the office door with my shoulder.
I sensed her before I saw her.
My shirt hitched on to her door but I shrugged it off.
"I apologize, your highness. I lost track of time." I rested the tray on her table.
She was looking for something on the book shelf.
I looked at her and suddenly, she tensed and her neck snapped to me. Her red eyes looked at me with a look I couldn't place my finger on.
"You're bleeding."
"What?"
My cycle wasn't until next month... or the next two months, who knows?
Her eyes zeroed on my arm and I looked down.
Oh.
It was where the door had hooked my shirt.
I did not feel that.
There was a huge slice on my hand going vertically. Blood seeped from the wound and my body started to recognize the pain.
I heard Athena growl and I looked at her.
Her eyes were darker than their usual red, a dark red, and they switched from black to dark red.
"Get out." Her voice came out distorted and she shook her head as if trying to get rid of...something.
My mind screamed at me to leave but I was frozen in place.
"Lauren, leave."
There was something about her voice that had me wanting to get on my knees.
Oh my god.
"Get. Out."
Oh, right.
I left her office and hissed as the wound start to burn. It shocks me that her door did that.
I went downstairs and dressed the wound before sighing. What the hell was that and why was I... turned on?
I need to get myself checked out.
Maybe it's because I haven't masturbated in the longest while.
Yes, that's why.
And I can't even do anything due to the rooming situation.
I muttered some incoherent words and went to the living room and turned on the tv.
Athena Kings
I had to control my hunger.
My beast was going feral.
A rush of hunger flew through my body, something I haven't felt in a long while.
I fed yesterday, drained 4 bodies. Where did this hunger come from?
Calm the fuck down, I snapped at my beast.
Mate. We need her.
If you're not horny, you're out for blood. I rolled my eyes.
It calmed down after a bit and I inhaled. The faint scent of her blood lingered in the air and I wanted to do nothing more than go to her and claim her.
It sounds like I'm fighting an addiction.
My office door was pushed open and Solana halted at the door as she unhooked her shirt from the door.
What the fuck? I need to change those doors.
"What the fuck, Athena? Are you trying to kill someone?" Solana hissed and looked at me.
"You're the second person the door caught. I didn't even know it was a hazard until a few seconds ago." I told her.
"The second? Who's the first?"
I give her a look.
"Ooh," she nodded when she got what I was saying. "I swear that girl is going to live long. I was just coming to you about her."
I scowled.
"Stop coming to me about Lauren." I told her.
"Just say yes." Solana said and folded her arms.
"Yes to what?"
"The day off."
"Do whatever you want. It doesn't concerns me." I told her. Solana smirked at me and her red eyes stared into mine.
"Also, before I take her out, one more thing." She looked at me, as if examining me and I raised my eyebrows at her. "You need to stop pushing her away. You're gonna be late to claiming her."
With that, she left my office.
What does she mean by that?
I don't care.
