Kayla's POV

Everything was blurry.

My ears were ringing, my chest felt tight, and it was like my body had just… shut down. I heard voices around me, but they sounded distant, muffled—like I was underwater. My limbs were heavy, my breathing shallow, and I couldn’t even tell if I was lying down or floating.

Then, slowly, the light got clearer. The smell of antiseptic hit my nose. Cold sheets beneath my hands. Machines softly beeping somewhere close by.

I blinked hard, struggling to lift my head. My vision was still a mess of shadows and light.

“Luna Kayla?” Ingrid’s voice cracked.

I turned my head slowly to the side and saw her sitting beside me, her face pale with worry and her hands clenched tightly in her lap.

“You’re awake,” she whispered, her voice shaking with relief.

“What… happened?” I croaked, my throat dry and sore.

“You passed out,” she said gently, pushing the hair away from my face. “Right after… after everything came out.”

We can work with that.”Several of the older board members nod and start whispering to each other with bright, greedy eyes — like I just handed them the company’s future wrapped in a red ribbon.I sit there, frozen, feeling my stomach twist. They aren’t celebrating me. They’re celebrating the fact that it’ll only take a month to sink their hooks deeper into my life.What did I just do?I try to smile, but it feels forced. My throat’s dry. I can already feel Hector’s burning stare from beside me.The applause fades when he suddenly grabs my wrist and pulls me out of my chair.“Hector—”“Outside.” His voice is low, controlled, but there’s thunder behind it.He doesn’t wait for me to argue.

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Another marriage proposal

    Ivonne’s POV Hector is practically vibrating with anger beside me now. I could feel him Seething. Silently. Dangerously. And I’m sitting right next to him, trying to hold myself together while the entire boardroom watches us like they’re waiting for someone to get stabbed with a pen. My pulse was already racing, but I forced a calm breath into my lungs. Losing my cool now will only make things worse. Hector’s anger was starting to feel like an electrical storm in the room — thick, sharp, crackling against my skin. It’s making my nerves jump in ways they have absolutely no business jumping. I straightened my back, smoothing my palms on the table, and finally speak. “Alright,” I say, sounding far calmer than I feel. “Before anything gets blown further out of proportion, I need to be very clear. I have never — not once — expressed romantic interest in Justin. And he never proposed to me.” Mr. Clarkson leaned back like he’s been waiting for his cue. “But did you, or did you not,

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Another proposal

    Ivonne's pov "Well, that’s very interesting, Miss Ivonne,” Marcellus said smugly, “because we actually came here to discuss your marriage with Justin.”I blinked as The words hit me like a slap. “My—what?” I sputtered. "With who?"" Hector went completely still beside me. Not tense. Frozen. Like he was debating between homicide and world domination.I couldn't blame him, because how was a man supposed to react when he was informed that his fiancee was engaged to another person.Before I could even start to think about what to do, Hector sat up higher in his seat and let out a low growl of warning. Lincoln muttered, “Oh, God…” Something told me he was familiar with his Uncle's temper and currently didn't want to be here. Mr. Clarkson flipped a folder open. “As you know, Miss Ivonne, the board has been considering a merger with the Mr Justin's Corporation—” Justin’s family. My stomach twisted. “—and Justin Ravel has expressed personal interest in you. He also told us th

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    What next?

    Ivonne's POVHector’s eyes darkened and he said. "I will tell you what really happened that night." I honestly felt like my mind blanked out when Hector leaned down and whispered those words.Like what did he mean?! My brain was still stuck on that when everything else started moving at a dizzying speed. I should’ve demanded he explain. I should’ve asked how that made sense when Tessa had just shown a literal video of Solenne plotting with her uncle. But Hector didn’t give me a second to form a coherent thought as he started lifting me out of the Stand. Then the next thing I knew, Marcellus—still red with humiliation—stormed up to us, barking, “Hector! wait! You cannot just—” Hector turned on him with such cold authority that even I flinched. “Elder Marcellus,” Hector said, voice dangerously calm, “interrogate Lady Solenne first. Now. Unless you wish to defy the court you claim to represent.” Marcellus actually stepped back. “You can’t order—” Hector moved closer. “Try me.”
