Chapter 20

Crystal's P.O.V.

Surprise!

I felt the cold air blow by and heard the screams of the dead when Mrs. O'Leary jumped into the shadows.

It was only a second, but it felt like forever.

I opened my eyes and looked at my surroundings.

We were on the other side of a river. The river snaked around the valley.

There were many dirt paths that led to different places.

On a hill, I saw a bunch of temples going up, but there was a temple bigger than the rest at the top.

Another way, there were towers and such, which must be where the Romans trained.

There were stables nearby.

I also saw a city.

New Rome.

I stared around me in awe.

When I looked in front of us, there were many people dressed in armour.

One girl was in the front. She looked about sixteen.

She had long black hair that was tied in a braid. Her eyes were deep brown. Her skin was tanned skin glistened in the sun.

I think that's some of Reyna's features, I'm too lazy to find the page that describes her in the book so whatever.

Her stare was intense, I could tell she was a great leader.

She had two dogs on either side of her. One of gold, the other of silver, both had ruby red eyes.

I was fascinated by them. I've never seen anything like them.

On the other side of the girl was a boy who looked about sixteen. He looked Chinese and he was burly and tall. He had a little bit of baby fat on his face.

His hair was black and was in a military cut. His eyes were dark, like Reyna's but didn't have that intense stare, they were more gentle.

Then there was another girl besides him.

She had curly cinnamon-toast colored hair, her amber eyes shone bright with small flecks of gold here and there. Her skin was the color of chocolate you could say. She was short compared to the boy. She looked at least fourteen.

Nico and (y/n) started getting off Mrs. O'Leary. I followed suit.

"Hey Nico!" The short girl beside the boy waved.

"Hi Hazel." Nico waved back, smiling a little.

Hazel....oh right! She is Nico's half-sister!

Nico and (y/n) walked up to the three people.

"(Y/n), Crystal, this is praetors Reyna and Frank, then this is my sister Hazel." Nico introduced us.

"Hi!" (Y/n) smiled brightly.

I just waved shyly. I'm not use to people really.

"Hello! You must be (y/n)! I have heard a lot about you from Nico!" Hazel smiled brightly.

"Oh really?" (Y/n) smirked at Nico.

Nico was avoiding her gaze.

I chuckled slightly.

"What's your name?" The other girl, Reyna, asked.

"My..um...my name is Crystal, Crystal Laurens. Daughter of Apollo." I told her.

Reyna nodded.

"Well it's nice to meet you Crystal. Now, how 'bout we go eat? You guys probably haven't eaten yet." Reyna turned to Nico.

Nico nodded and we started following the Romans.

/timeskip/

(Y/n)'s P.O.V.

I got along great with Nico's sister. We talked almost the whole time during breakfast.

Crystal was either talking to Reyna or just eating.

Nico was talking to Frank. By the look of Frank's face, Nico is most likely threatening him or something like that since Frank and Hazel recently started dating.

"So...?" Hazel started, bringing me out of my thoughts.

"So...what?" I mimicked.

"I heard you're a werewolf." Hazel said.

"Yes I am." I confirmed.

"And my brother is your mate." Hazel smirked.

My face started going red.

"Y-yeah." I chuckled nervously.

"How long have you two been together?" Hazel asked.

"Um...probably about a month or less." I guessed, and took a sip of my water.

"Hmm...do you love him?" Hazel asked.

I was caught off guard by this question and started choking on my water.

"W-what?" I asked.

"Do you love Nico?" Hazel asked again.

I thought for a moment.

Do I like Nico?

Yes.

But...do I love him?

"Yes. With all my heart." I replied, smiling softly.

"Good. I can see you make my brother happy, I just want to make sure you truly do love him." Hazel smiled back.

"I would never want to hurt Nico. He was the one that helped me get to Camp Half-Blood, he helped me out a lot there. He was also my best friend before he was my boyfriend." I smiled a little, thinking of the memories before all of this.

"I was wondering...are guys just here to visit, or is it something more?" Hazel asked, curiously.

I sighed.

"My dad is trying to look for me. Wants to force me into a marriage. He was getting closer to Camp Half-Blood, so we had to catch him off guard and travel somewhere else. We also got a prophecy telling us I had to go." I told her.

"Why is your dad forcing you into marriage. As werewolves you have mates, so why would he force you with someone you know isn't your mate?" Hazel asked.

I like Hazel, asks good questions.

"He doesn't want me to become Alpha. He doesn't care if the wolf is my mate or not, he just doesn't want a 'she-wolf' to run the pack." I told her.

"What kind of a dad is he?" Hazel furrowed her eyebrows.

"The type who doesn't give a fuck about other people." I frowned.

It was silent for a minute.

"Hey! You never told me who your mother is." Hazel pointed out.

"My mother is Aphrodite, or Venus to you guys. I am also blessed by Ares, or Mars." I told her.

"Oh! Frank is a child of Mars. And I can tell you aren't like most daughters of Venus, like Piper. Definitelyig you are blessed by Mars." Hazel smiled.

"Yeah. But Pipes still can be like an  Aphrodite girl when it comes to shipping people." I laughed.

Hazel joined in.

"True." Hazel laughed.

"I see you guys are getting along well." A male voice said behind me.

"Of course! How can I not get along with your sis Neeks! She's the best!" I smiled.

Nico chuckled and sat beside me.

Frank was now sitting beside Hazel.

"Hey (y/n)! How about later you show us what your wolf is like!" Hazel suggested.

"That's actually a good idea. I want to see your wolf." Frank said.

"Same here. I haven't seen you in wolf form before." Nico smirked.

"Please! We haven't ran in awhile!" Myla pleaded.

"Sure. How about after breakfast?" I smiled.
