• The Luna's Redemption   Cafeteria

  Georgina Sinclair's POV:Marius steps away first.His warmth lingers near me even after he put distance between us. But the moment he steps away, I can sense the line he is carefully redrawing. It's soft, invisible and firm. I quietly glance at him and observing the way he fix his expression into something casual. Although I know what just passed between us was not casual at all.Marius is giving me space and respecting my pace.The gesture deeply affects me even though I remain silent. It is something fragile that has not been looked after in a long time. I then give him a slight smile.Before we can say anything else, the door opens with a soft knock. Then Harry walks in again. His expression looks dry and he is holding a phone in his hand."The food is now ready, sir." he announced.Then he glances between us as if he just walked into the middle of something. Harry pauses for a second before he adds something."You two can head over now."And just like that, the ambiguous atmospher

• The Luna's Redemption   Broken Mug

  Georgina Sinclair's POV: I am not sure how long I sit there silently and looking into my coffee as if it might give me the courage I lack. Marius has not moved since we last spoke. He is still sitting across from me. He is quiet, patient and watching me the same way someone watches a delicate thread and unsure if pulling at it will make the whole thing fall apart. Then something inside me has changed. It's not because I feel obligated. It's not because he asked. But I want to let someone know. Someone who does not treat me with suspicion, disdain or compassion. Someone who does not take advantage of my words. I lift my gaze to his and I speak. "It was Ryan." The words falls almost too soft. But Marius hears them. I can see the quiet storm forming behind his eyes. He tightens his jaw but says nothing to me. He is not even breathing loudly. "I confronted him." I continued. "About the false accusations he kept pointing at me. I asked him if he even wanted to hear my side

• The Luna's Redemption   Coffee

  Georgina Sinclair's POV:I turn the last page of the Silver Project collaboration contract and let out a soft breath. Even though the room is still silent but the air has grown lighter and warmer. Alpha Marius has been observing me patiently the entire time. He appears to be trying to memorize every emotion on my face."Your legal team did an excellent job." I said while breaking the silence and closing the folder gently. "The contract is well-written. It's clear and fair too."Alpha Marius leans forward and rest his elbows on his knees and clasp his hands together. "Of course it is fair." he replied with a smile. "I can not afford to treat you unfairly. Not even in writing."I raise an eyebrow before smirking a little."Oh? And why is that?""Because you would find a way to burn my company to the ground using nothing but your words and a single post-it note." he said with a grin.I laugh and shakes my head. "You're so dramatic.""I'm not dramatic." he said while holding up a finger

• The Luna's Redemption   Company Visit

  Georgina Sinclair's POV:The trip to Alpha Marius's workplace seems to take longer than it does. It is mainly because my thoughts are unstoppable and persistent. But as soon as I pull into the Peddleton Enterprise Tower parking lot, I take a deep breath and allow myself to be in the moment.I park my car and get out of it. I adjust the light coat around me and careful not to touch the still-healing scratch on my cheek. I ignore the way a few people at the entrance glance my way. Maybe some of them recognizes me. The lobby has large and polished marble floors. A large but minimalist chandelier hangs above us and the scent of expensive air freshener stays the air.I hesitate by the front desk and wondering if I should ask the receptionist to call up to Alpha Marius's office. But nefore I can grab my phone, a man wearing glasses comes up behind me. "Miss Sinclair." he called before stopping just a step in front of me.I blink my eyes. "Yes?"Then he offers me a polite nod. "I am Har

• The Luna's Redemption   Hangout

  Georgina Sinclair's POV: I am still standing by the window when my phone vibrates on the vanity behind me. I blink my eyes then slowly turn around and pick it up. It's a message from Alpha Marius.(Want to hang out?)I raise an eyebrow at the message before a laugh almost escaping my lips. Hang out? What kind of Alpha casually says that like we are still teenagers sneaking out of training to find pastries in the village?I shake my head before typing back a reply.'You probably have way too much free time. I envy you.'The response comes almost immediately. And I can already see the smile tugging at his mouth's corner.(Nope. I just have a very reliable secretary who thrives on paperwork. So do you want to hang out or not?)I stare at the screen for a few seconds longer while considering his words. The air in this mansion feels stale. The tension is clinging to every corner like thick fog. And despite my firm resolve earlier, I can feel the way the walls seem to judge me and how the

• The Luna's Redemption   For Freedom

  Georgina Sinclair's POV:Soon, a group of omega servants walk past me. One of them bumps my shoulder.It's not hard but not softly either. She doesn't apologize while the others snicker.I pause and glance back just once. She freezes for a moment under my stare. But then, she tosses her hair and keeps walking. They think my silence is weakness. That I've already lost everything.They are all wrong.What I've lost was never mine to keep. And what I'm about to gain is something they will never understand it.When I reach the staircase leading to the garden wing, I see two warriors standing guard. They don't greet me. One looks away while the other pretends to check something on the wall. Then I sigh quietly.This is the cost of choosing myself.But I will pay it tenfold if it means I can finally step out of a life where I was shrinking to fit in. I continue down the corridor and head toward the back of the estate where the meeting room for the former Dark Shadow Pack members is temporar
