Chapter 33
Danna was steadily descending the stairs beside Eros, and when she saw his warriors, she smiled warmly.
“Welcome guys, how was the trip?”
“Danna my dear friend, the trip was smooth, we had no setbacks,” Ares blurted out with politeness in his eyes.
“Ares, this is Eros, he is the alpha of alphas and leader of this pack.
Ares scanned it suspiciously, because he knew Danna’s story with her mate and, as far as he knew, they were not on good terms.
Eros, noticing how the man was looking at him, firmly but carefully grabbed Danna by the waist. His gesture had a dual purpose: to prove to Ares that he was his mate and to show his domineering presence to any wolf.
“It’s a pleasure to have you in our herd, make yourselves at home,” Eros said as he looked at one of his servants. Candle, guide men to wash themselves and rest a little; Soon they will be called for food.
Ares saw Eros’ gesture and, without embarrassment, approached Danna animatedly. He stood beside her and, in an amused voice, whispered to her very softly, which only she could hear.
“I thought there was going to be a nuclear war between you and your mate, but from what I see you’ve already marked it as your property.” He pulled away from Danna and looked at Eros. Thank you for the welcome, my men and I are leaving. After the meal, we need to meet to be briefed on what we’re up against.
Danna felt embarrassed with her friend, she didn’t know what to say to him, she had to keep her composure in front of Eros.
Maya arrived at that moment, with a smile on her face, she exclaimed excitedly.
“Big guy, you’re here at last!” We’d been waiting for them for two days, don’t tell me the wolves wouldn’t let you out of the pack.
Ares opened his arms tenderly and wrapped his sister in a warm and affectionate embrace. Their hearts were joyfully reunited in that fraternal embrace, they were together again to face a new adventure.
Maya, with a bright smile, returned her brother’s embrace, feeling protected and loved at that moment.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
The others present watched the scene warmly. It was a reminder that, even in a world full of wolves and conflict, love and family togetherness were still powerful and comforting.
“Little devil, I missed you so much. I hope Danna put you to work and that you’ve been busy organizing everything around here. Ares said fondly as he parted ways with his sister.
“Who says so?” The laziest of the pack,” Maya said, pouting adorably.
Danna leaned softly into Eros’ ear and whispered to reassure him.
“Stop tensing up, Eros. Ares is part of my family, he’s like my brother, just like Maya. They, his father, and my grandmother Hecate are my family. You don’t have to worry about it. Danna’s words were full of tenderness and understanding towards the feelings of Eros, who had made no secret of his jealousy in the presence of Ares.
Eros, who didn’t like that man getting too close to Danna, relaxed his gaze and whispered to her sincerely.
“I don’t like any man coming near you, and it bothers me to see that Gamma’s confidence in you.
“Well, get used to it, because in my pack there are few who call me majesty or queen, most call me by my name,” Danna said with a mischievous smile to soothe Eros’s jealousy. It was also a way of telling him that she was his and that he shouldn’t worry about the other wolves in his pack.
At that moment, from the stairs, a shrill bang was heard.
“Man, if you’re mean to Eos, you came and didn’t come up to see me. With a huge smile, the girl hurried downstairs.
Ares, seeing the girl, ran to her and caught her in the air to embrace her lovingly.
“My princess! I missed you so much, and your grandmother Hecate sent you lots of kisses.” She gave him a loving kiss on the cheek.
Eos let out a chuckle full of affection and joy.
Minutes before, Ofelia had gone upstairs and reached the room where her daughter was. He hugged her tenderly, and then handed her the potion to disguise his she-wolf essence. Gina briefly told her mom what was going on and then went out to the princess’s room, who was already awake waiting for her. After grooming and dressing the girl, he told her that the warriors of the Dawn pack had arrived. Eos, excited to hear the news, ran out of the room.
Gina sighed in fright as she watched her go, and hoping not to be recognized as mate, she crept out after the princess. She went downstairs cautiously, aware that Maya was watching her intently. However, noticing that his mate, Ares, showed no reaction to his presence, he heaved a sigh of relief.
“Puppy, I’m going to get jealous as soon as you’ve cast me away,” Eros said, as Hercules growled inwardly.
“Handsome daddy, don’t be sad, he’s my handsome uncle too,” the girl made a face of astonishment. He knows many stories of wars.
“Tell your daddy that he has to share you with me, because I’m your favorite uncle and your ugly Aunt Maya comes second,” Ares added humorously, as Maya slapped him on the shoulder.
Ares then placed the girl on the ground and whispered to her affectionately.
“Princess, I’m going to clean up and eat, then tell me how she’s treated you in your new home.”
“Yes man, I’ll tell you everything,” she whispered, moving her little body from side to side.
Ares bade farewell to those present and left the room in the direction of where his men were. Maya ran to Gina’s side and whispered very softly in her ear.
“Are you okay?” That potion is effective, he doesn’t seem to know you’re his mate.
“It’s the one that worked for me instantly, I’m relieved he didn’t notice my presence. Gina replied with a sigh. The strategy of hiding her true identity as Ares’s mate seemed to be working, at least for the moment, and that reassured her.
Danna took her daughter’s hand and bent down to whisper tenderly.
“My puppy, after breakfast, I need you to stay with your grandmother Eurides and Gina, please don’t part with them. Mommy and Daddy have to meet the warriors and then we have to leave.
“Yes, Mommy, I’ll stay with them and listen to what they tell me. I hope they come back soon,” the girl replied with obedience and a hint of sadness in her little voice at the thought of her parents’ departure.
Danna hugged her daughter tightly, feeling a knot in her stomach as she pulled away from her. Eros stretched out her hands and took her daughter in her arms lovingly.
“Come on, little princess, I must feed you.”
After the meal, Danna, Eros, Maya, and Ares met to discuss the events and plan their next steps. That afternoon, Danna and Eros said goodbye to their puppy.
“Danna, she’ll be fine, I promise. Trust me, she won’t be in danger. Zeus will be her guardian,” Eurides said with a warm smile, trying to reassure her.
Eros gently took Danna’s hand, indicating that it was time to leave for war. He was proud of his mate for being a protective mother, and if he didn’t take her with him, he knew Danna wouldn’t get out that afternoon. They all set out for the battlefield on horseback to get to the camp faster.
