Chapter 57 The Desperate Choice

• Aphrodite's Point of View
• It had been some days, but to me, it was like years. I received another jolt in my heart for every single second that passed by without Ares and with another wave of guilt, almost unbearable to shake away. The pack was high alert; however, there was no lead, no sign of my son. I had barely slept, barely eaten. Zeus tried to reassure me, to tell me I would be okay, but his words seemed hollow. Every hour that slid past since Ares' disappearance only seemed to reinforce the worst of my fears.
• I couldn't just sit there, doing nothing. I had to do something. Anything.
