The Alpha Calls Me Princess

Chapter Sixteen- The Tomb

Pythios's POV

I ran through the castle. My father was going to be inside in any second. I had to find her, I had to find her before he did.

Artemis's shout voiced over her thousands of soldiers, shaking the walls around me.

Goddesses..geez.

Two hallways stopped me in my tracks. It has been so long...which way do I go?

As if Zeus himself had heard me, a little maid came running out from the right hallway with some of Amara's crowns.

I groaned ignoring the thief and ran to the right.

He couldn't get her....I would never let him.

Amara's door stood slightly cracked open.

I burst through. My father claimed he didn't wish to hurt her nor her mother, yet he wanted to take her...the sick God.

My breath hitched painfully in my throat.

She wasn't there.

An estranged cry, shook the walls once again.

Only this time it was mine.

Amara's POV

The blue walls surrounded me when I awoke once again.

You do know that sitting here doing NOTHING in your head while you're asleep sucks, right?

Woah, where did that come from? One day of having you and you already have an attitude with me.

It just feels right. Maybe I used to pick on you a lot before we lost our memory.

If Priscilla was a physical person I would've punched her in her throat for making me think of my current situation again. I couldn't remember anything...and just trying made my head pound.

"Oh...you're awake."

Oh yeah, and it didn't help this random alpha had been keeping watch on me like a hawk while my "mate" was working the pack.

"No really? I thought I was still asleep." I smiled up at him. At least he put me in a good mood...even if that mood was a bit sarcastic.

The corner's of his mouth lifted up in an almost smile before a look of pain of want crossed his whole face.

He turned away from me, and I bit my lip confused.

Every time I made this alpha-well Cole- even slightly happy, he went into this mood.

And this mood scared the fuck out of me.

Maybe he is just mad because he is spending time here with you all day when he wants to be with his mate.

A flush of anger went through me thinking of Cole with a mate, but it disappeared as sudden as it came leaving an empty feeling inside of me.
