Chapter 82
Zeus tried to run after her but felt something wrap around her right hind leg. The wolf growled, and the root let go. When he felt liberated and went out at full speed in search of the flirtatious nymph who had captivated him, but he could not find her. For a while, he sensed that the forest had him circling in the same place, he thought it was that naughty girl who didn’t want him to follow him, he whispered mentally: “Let me catch you and I’ll give you your punishment for being flirtatious.”
Zeus walked towards his herd and I suspect that the forest knew of his intention, as the path was clear and fast. He arrived at his mansion, took on his human form, and began his search. He talked Galilee into making him a potion for when he found his mate and could undo their union in a less painful way for both of them. He already knew that his Moon was that beautiful nymph.
Back in reality, Perseus knew he had to find the nymph who had bewitched him. However, the search had been in vain, and his impatience overpowered him. In an attempt to free himself from his attraction to her, he had decided not to meet her, but the mysterious nymph continued to haunt him in his thoughts and dreams.
A week later.
“Eda, slow down, you’re already 18, when are you going to grow up?” And I warn you, I don’t want to flirt with the wolves in this pack. We only came for diplomacy,” Eos said seriously and threateningly.
Eda turned to look at her and laughed as she increased the speed of the SUV.
“Oh, little sister! You are the one who came to hand over command of the pack, not me. I’m only accompanying you at the request of my parents. Besides, if a little wolf comes along that I can amuse myself with, you know I’ll take advantage of it, until the Moon goddess puts me in my path.” I hope that will happen in the very distant future.
“You’re shameless. How can you say that? Being in the company of other wolves just for fun, what will go through your mate’s mind when you finally find him and he finds out about your antics? He exclaimed with an exasperated sigh. Her younger sister enjoyed the life of partying at parties in the blue pack.
“Nothing, because I only enjoy their company, a few dances, a few kisses,” he chuckled, “and a few scrubs, but I haven’t been intimating with any of them yet.
Eos rolled his eyes in annoyance as he caught sight of the majestic entrance of the herd. He felt the speed of the car slowing down. They used to undertake their solo journeys most of the time.
Upon entering, they were guided to the residence of Alpha Perseus. As they advanced, the guards looked at each other in surprise to see the two princesses traveling unaccompanied. What they didn’t know was that each of them possessed extraordinary abilities. Eos, as a nymph, had the power to invoke nature’s intervention to her aid, while Ada was an expert warrior in combat. In addition, the Moon goddess had bestowed upon Venus a special wolf who, with her charms, could distract and eliminate any wolf in the blink of an eye.
Ada parked the vehicle in front of an imposing mansion that retained its elegant period structure.
“This house is really beautiful. Our grandparents had exquisite taste. I hope this Perseus enjoys it as much as we would have,” Eos said as he got out of the vehicle.
“Miss, welcome to Vilkas Manor. Young Perseus has decided to keep his grandfather’s name and legacy. I’m Galilee, the person in charge. Please stop by and settle into your rooms; they need to rest. Alpha Perseus is outside the pack, settling a land conflict, but you don’t have to worry about it,” Galilee explained with a warm smile. He had sensed the powerful energy of Eos, and if his magical intuition did not fail him, it must be the alpha’s destined mate.
“Hello, Galilee, I’m Eos and this is my sister Ada,” he said with a pleasant smile as he walked inside the mansion.
When they entered, two maids bowed in respectful bow to greet them.
“Greetings, Princesses Eos and Ada. “It’s an honor to have you in our pack,” said one of them, in a calm, friendly voice, as the other continued.
“Princesses, please follow me.” It was a long journey and they must be tired.
The two girls looked at each other, and Ada was the one who spoke.
“Don’t call us a princess. I’m Ada and she’s Eo,” pouting he continued. I’m hungry, can you take me to the kitchen? I want to make myself a sandwich,” he turned to his sister. Do you want one?
“No! I’m going to rest.
“I’m Tina, follow me around.”
Eos exchanged a farewell gesture with his sister and followed Tina, while Ada was led into the kitchen by the other maid.
Eos entered the room and slumped exhaustedly on the bed, feeling the pain in her body. Her sister used to take shortcuts through the woods and venture down any trail she would find on her way. However, she didn’t know when she fell asleep.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
When he woke up, he headed to the bathroom to freshen up before leaving. He went downstairs and found his sister, Ada, already sitting at the table, enjoying her breakfast.
“Eos, you’re a sleeper. I walked into your room and you were snoring like a lion. I had to run out of there,” Ada joked, causing Eos to blush at his sister’s nonsense. Eos then looked at Galilee, who was present at the table, and smiled at her.
“Bon Appetit, Galilee. Sorry for my sister’s nonsense.
“When they’re done with breakfast, I’d like to give them a tour of the herd.”
“Yes, yes, I’d love to. The weather was perfect, wasn’t it, little sister? And I hope you’re in a good mood so it doesn’t change,” Ada said with a mischievous smile on her lips.
Galilee understood the reason for Ada’s words to her sister. After the young ladies arrived at the mansion and went to their rooms, she ventured into the forest and sought the wisdom of the local white witch. Their suspicions were confirmed: they were in the presence of the queen of nymphs. The two women shared a knowing laugh as they understood why Zeus hadn’t ceded control to Perseus when he demanded it and also understood the reason why the alpha had had trouble sleeping since he met his mate.
“You’d better eat and behave, Ada. I don’t want to hear that you ran away partying,” he blurted out as he shoved a spoonful of food into his mouth.
When they finished eating, they left the mansion and began to walk through the herd. Eos was delighted: the streets were clean and there were modern buildings along the way. They entered a shopping mall and Ada was amazed by the things she saw; in every store he went into.
