MELANIA….

The sky was gray. Not stormy, not raining, just unbearably heavy, as if even the heavens were mourning my parents.

The entire pack stood dressed in black, lining both sides of the sacred grounds. The air smelled of burning incense and wet earth.

Two pyres stood at the center, adorned with white lilies and silver wolf insignias, the mark of the Lombardi bloodline.

My mother.

My father.

Gone.

I stood at the front, unmoving, my face calm, my spine straight. Livia, Simona and Adriel stoo

    MELANIA….."Stop smiling.""I'm not smiling.""You are.""I'm really not."I glared at Raymond. This man had been grinning nonstop since he woke up. It was irritating. Very irritating. And somehow, that grin became even wider.A knock suddenly sounded on the door.Before either of us could respond, the door swung open."Mama! Papa!"Isla rushed inside. We were still in the closet. I heard her footsteps growing closer to the closet. She popped her head inside to check if we were inside it. A wide smile spread across her lips when she found both her father and mother inside the closet. My heart nearly stopped. I quickly wrapped a towel around myself to hide my body from Isla. How am I going to answer her if she asks me what happened to my body and from where those marks came from.Raymond coughed into his fist, earning a glare from me."Good morning, sweetheart." I greeted her.Isla froze. Her eyes moved from me to Raymond. Then back to me. A mischievous smile slowly spread across her

  • ALPHA CYRUS' CHOOSEN LUNA: CHASING HIS EX-WIFE   45. Love bites

    MELANIA…..The warmth surrounding me was the first thing I felt when I woke up.For a moment, I remained still. Because it was too comfortable. Then reality slowly returned. My eyes fluttered open.The summer morning sunlight streamed through the curtains, bathing the room in a soft golden glow. I blinked sleepily. Only then did I realize I wasn't alone and I wasn't sleeping in my room either. Then I noticed strong arms were wrapped securely around my waist. My breath caught.Slowly, I lifted my head to find Raymond was asleep beside me.No. Not beside me. I was practically tangled up in his arms. His chest rose and fell steadily beneath my cheek. One of his arms was possessively wrapped around my waist while the other rested beneath my head. As though even in his sleep, he refused to let me go.A strange warmth spread through my chest. For six years, Raymond had respected every boundary I placed between us. Never pressured me. Never demanded anything. Never complained. And now, for

  • ALPHA CYRUS' CHOOSEN LUNA: CHASING HIS EX-WIFE   44. Will you make me the mother of your child

    RAYMOND…Today, I came home late again.A mountain of paperwork and endless meetings had kept me occupied throughout the day.As soon as I stepped into our room, I stopped in my tracks. The room was dark, not completely dark. Dozens of candles illuminated the space, casting a warm golden glow across the room.Confusion filled me.‘What was all this?’I slowly walked forward only to be greeted by her mesmerizing voice. "Welcome home, My Alpha."I immediately looked around, searching for her. Then she stepped out from behind the wardrobe with a bright smile on her face. For a moment, I forgot how to breathe. The candlelight danced across her features, making her look ethereal.Like a fairy who had stepped out of a dream.She wore a long white dress that flowed gracefully around her figure. Her dark hair cascaded freely down her back and over her shoulders. A touch of makeup enhanced her natural beauty. And somehow, she looked even more breathtaking than usual."What's all of this?" I as

    RAYMOND…..I was taken aback when she turned towards Serena and smacked her face. "How dare you do such a thing, Lady Serena?”The slap echoed throughout the study. The force of it sent Serena stumbling sideways.A thin line of blood appeared at the corner of her mouth.The room fell deathly silent.Serena slowly raised her hand and touched her cheek.Then to everyone's surprise, she laughed like a maniac, throwing her head back. Rosalyn stared at her in disbelief. "Serena!"But Serena ignored her. She wiped the blood from her mouth with her thumb and looked at it. Then she laughed again. " Yes, I did it. I drugged Raymond’s drink when I saw his daughter bringing juice to his room. I didn't want to lose this opportunity. I knew I could never make him mine if I didn't pull this stunt. It was the only way left for me. I don't regret what I did. Because everything is fair in love and war." Her eyes were red and filled with something unhinged."I loved you for years, Raymond. I crossed

  • ALPHA CYRUS' CHOOSEN LUNA: CHASING HIS EX-WIFE   42. Interrogation

    RAYMOND…..I couldn't believe that Melania kissed me last night. I thought something would happen after that but she just kissed my forehead and left the room. I didn't know if she was regretting kissing me. Was it a mistake? Did she get carried away by emotion when she heard my words? Is there any chance that our relationship will take the next step? Will she give me a place in her heart? Will she finally accept me as her husband and mate?There were so many questions going on in my mind but there was no answer to me. And I didn't have the guts to go and ask her directly. Because I was afraid to hear that I'm still her friend only.I sat behind my desk in my study room, my fingers drumming against the wooden surface. My gaze remained fixed on the door as I waited for Rosalyn and Serena to arrive. They had better have a damn good explanation. Because if what I suspected was true then I wasn't sure I could forgive them.How dare she drug me and try to take advantage of my condition to

    MELANIA….After finishing the discussion with Livia and Aaron, I headed toward my room. The corridor was unusually quiet. As I approached the door, I heard something crash inside. My brows furrowed.What was going on?I quickened my pace and turned the doorknob only to find it locked so I used my key to open the door. After unlocking it I pushed the door open.The sight that greeted me made my blood run cold."Leave."Serena stared at him. "Raymond!""Leave." His voice shook with rage."You could put every woman in the kingdom in this room, and I would still choose Melania. The only woman I want is my wife. Now get out before I forget you're a guest.”"If you have any respect left for yourself, walk out that door." I heard Raymond saying, pointing at the door.My eyes filled with tears seeing his loyalty for me. I don't know what great deed I had done in my past life to get him in my life as husband."Raymond!” I called him. And he looked at me. He didn't waste a second and ran to me

    MELANIA…..“Alpha, your uncle came to visit you. He's waiting outside the door.” Fabio, my bodyguard, stepped into my study to inform me.Uncle Matteo!A chill ran down my spine. He had been on my suspect list after the car attack, but the evidence had cleared him. But It doesn't mean that he would

I turned toward the door only to find Raymond standing there, arms crossed, concern etched across his face.I frowned. “Why didn’t you knock?” I asked, deliberately ignoring his question.“I

I hadn't slept. Hadn’t even tried. I was waiting for Melania’s call. I had talked to Adriel. He told me Melania c
