Chapter 56
A couple days later
Ares POV
I have been so da mn angry these days, Nora and Helios talked while Helios was unconscious. I
wanted to talk to her also but no, she didn’t come to me. Perhaps she never has forgiven me and never
will. Helios has been telling me that she has forgiven me a thousand times over but I don’t believe him.
I can’t forgive myself so why in the world would she?
*Punch*
“Haha, son, don’t think of other things in the middle of a fight. It was your idea to have this fight thing
and now you can’t even concentrate?” My father said and I glared at him.
Right after everything with the crazy witch we began with the fight tournament and my first fight was
with my father. And my thoughts are in the way so I will lose? Never.
I duck under his next punch and hit him on his back, which makes him stumble and growl at me.
“Good, boy,” father says and I smile. I have always wanted our dad’s attention.
“Come on Ares, you can do better” Helios screams and laughs.
I growl at him and then kick our father but as I thought I would win, I was wrong. He took my leg and
twisted it and I landed hard onto the grass. Ouch.

“I believe that I will win this fight then” father says but I try to get up, but da mn, that hurts.
“Five seconds, Ares.” Uncle Dave shouts.
“I give up” I say and hold up my hand.
“D amn, father. That move really hurts.

days.” Father laughs and looks down at me with a pained face.
I huffed but took his hand when he reached down for me and I let him help me up but as I put my
weight on my leg I whined. Da mn, that really hurts.

Go to Melinda and she will help you.” Dad says and I nod as Gray comes over and helps me over to
Melinda.
Daniel was true to his promise, he is sitting by Nora’s side when he isn’t fighting. It has been a rough
couple of days where Daniel has been conflicted about Nora and Melinda but Melinda helped him
yesterday.
She punched him so hard that he broke his nose and then she screamed at him so he sat like a little
boy on the floor, with his head hanging. She said that his first priority is towards Nora and she would
never be his mate if he ever put her first over Nora.
Da mn, Melinda is strong. Daniel agreed and then they went up to his room and .. no, I don’t want to
think about what happened later between them. I shake my head and Gray laughs.

“I bet you thought about Melinda yesterday when she put Daniel in his right place? Under her heels”
Gray laughs and so do I but we stop quickly when we see Melinda’s face.
“I don’t wear heels” she said and I swallowed hard and I almost cried when Gray ran off after helping
me down onto the chair.
“I didn’t mean anything by it, Melinda. But it was fun to watch as you literally brought him to his knees
and made him ashamed of himself” I say and snicker and I watch as Melinda blush.
“Yeah, I don’t know what flew in me but I was so angry at him that time. Even if I am his mate, Nora
should be his first priority” she says and smiles.
“Daniel has told me stories about her and I am very curious to meet her properly and talk to her, she
seems to be a very nice girl” Melinda says and smiles.
“She is and I think she would like you. but..” I say and let my words die out.
“I can help you with that if you want to?” Melinda says and I tilt my head at her.
“Helios and Andrei, please come to the center of the arena” uncle Dave’s words sounded over the
entire place.
“With what?” I ask after clapping my hands.
“Talking to Nora, like Helios did” Melinda says while she examines my leg.
“Really, you can do that?” I ask way too eagerly.
“Yes, I will put you under with magic and help Nora by guiding

her into your mind” Melinda laughs as I blush by my
eagerness
“Please, I want to do that, when?” I ask and almost kisses her with joy.
“Don’t kiss me but after the fighting today, you can spend the night in Nora’s room and I can connect
you two. Does that sound okay?” She asks while she holds out her hand above my leg and I can feel
her healing magic.
“Oh.” Yes, that would be so great. Thank you so much” I say and smile at her.
“Of course.” If I had thought of it earlier I would have done. that but I have been occupied these days.”
Melinda shakes her head
“Hehe, it’s not so easy with lycans around, are you and Daniel okay then?” I ask and she blush lightly
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbut nods.
“Yes, it’s going well but I have decided that this ceremony won’t happen until you, Helios and Nora
have done it. So Daniel is a bit .. you know..” she explains.
“I get it, but when will you mark him then. By the way, can you mark him? How does that work
anyway?” I ask with genuine curiosity
“Oh I actually asked my mother and I have to mark him with magic, so basically I will infuse my magic
into him and he will have like a tattoo on his neck” Melinda says and it sounds.
cool.
“Cool.” Can you do that on others as well?” I ask and I don’t mean a mark, I hope she understands that.

“Yeah, haven’t you noticed a small rose on Nora’s hand?” Melinda says and points at my hand.
“Yes I did see one this morning. “Was that you?” I ask her.
“Yes, it will work as a barrier. If anyone with or without magic will try to harm her it will send out like a
signal to me and I can just transport myself there and help her out.
“Like protection magic then?” I ask and she seems surprised that I know that much.
“Yes, you seem to know some things about magic” Melinda
says
“I listened to Mia a lot even though it didn’t seem like it but I am curious about the whole thing.” I say
and shrug.
“Hmm, if you want to learn more, I can give you some books,” Melinda says.
“It would be interesting but I can’t learn magic, you know” I say and look away.
“That’s a myth actually. everyone especially lycans can learn defensive magic” Melinda say and I look
at her
“Please teach me!”
