Chapter 24: Angry Thoughts
Adriana hadn't seen that one coming.
The next time Jaina lunged at her, though, she was ready.
She ducked and extended her leg forward, spinning so quickly that she didn't even realize what she had done. In a second, Jaina fell back, ungracefully landing on her rear.
"Good," Jaina said, giving Adriana a not so happy smile. "Your reflexes are quite fast."
"I've never done that before," Adriana said honestly. "I've never fought anyone in my life."
Because she was never able to. How many times had she wished she were able to punch Rhonda in the face, or at least push her away when she inflicted pain upon her? And Alpha Darien... he was so much bigger and stronger, which should have given him a clue that the punishments he inflicted on Adriana were much more painful...
She pushed back the tears that threatened to gush out of her eyes.
"I don't pretend to know what you've been through," Jaina said as she stood up.

"What are you doing?" Rowan backed away from Stacy, pushing her back and making a conscious effort not to use too much strength. He hadn't intended for things to go like this. Stacy looked at him, taken aback by his reaction. "Aren't you happy to see me, too?" She smiled, edging closer to Rowan again. "It's been so long. I've missed you." Rowan backed away, all of a sudden feeling a tingling down his spine. He felt the faint scent of Adriana. But that couldn't be possible. She was with Jaina, right? "Stacy, this isn't the time and place to talk about this," Rowan eyed the omegas guarding the door, who looked straight ahead, pretending not to listen. "But I thought I made it clear when you left that we were no longer a thing." "But I'm back! We don't need to do the long-distance relationship thing anymore. I… decided studying was not for me. Life in the human world is dreadfully boring.” Her voice was as chirpy and fake as he remembered it. “No, we talked about this. I told you
Alpha Rowan's Secret Luna Chapter 26: A Date?
An hour later, Adria found herself on the couch downstairs. Tears streamed down Adriana's face as Marla handed her one picture after the other. After the incident with Stacy upstairs, Marla hadn't let go of Adria, save for the few minutes it took her to run back to her house and return with a photo album filled with pictures of Adria and her family. It was as if an enormous weight had been lifted off Adria's shoulders. A whirlwind of emotions swept through her as she flipped through the pages of the yellowed-out photo album. She did look like her mother, but she seemed to have inherited her father's hair and eyes. She had a past, an existence before the Turnbulls. People who had loved her and wanted her. "And here is the main house, where you were born!" Marla handed her yet another photo, this time of a house that Adriana vaguely recognized. "Your grandfather built it." By now, everyone had given up trying to console her. Rowan paced around the living room, looking like a wreck
Alpha Rowan's Secret Luna Chapter 27: Splurging
Later in the evening, Rowan lay in bed staring at the ceiling. It had been a really long day, beginning with Adria's nighttime encounter and the incident with Stacy.There were so many things he still needed to learn about her. How did her powers work? What had changed when they... turned her? Was that what had happened to her?Her test results would be back tomorrow, probably, and Rowan trusted Jaina to help them discover what had happened, at least on a genetic level.Earlier in the afternoon, he realized Adria had somehow blocked their mind link. He had tried to talk to her while they were dealing with Stacy, but either she was great at ignoring him, or she was simply not listening.As if she had read his thoughts, Adria's voice appeared in his head."Rowan?" she said through the mind link."Adria? I thought you were asleep," he quickly replied. "Do you need anything?"He wanted to ask her if he could go over to her room, but that's not what he had agreed to. If they were really go
Alpha Rowan's Secret Luna Chapter 28: Who Are You?
Adria's shopping spree with Luna Marie was tiring and an eye-opening experience. Not only had she never had her own clothes, but she'd never had a meal in a restaurant, and it was clear that there was so much she still needed to learn about being out in the world. She had made a mess with the salad dressing and accidentally added too much of it, trying to imitate what Luna Marie did with her own food. Then she dropped the silverware to the floor and Luna Marie kindly slapped her hand away when she was about to plunge the fork back into her food. Back in Black Moon pack, she was lucky if they gave her napkins. They did more shopping after lunch and then finally returned to the house, where all Adria wanted to do was hide. How on earth was she supposed to go on a date with Rowan if she barely knew how to eat like a normal person? "Hello… How's your day going?" Rowan's voice said through the mind-link, startling Adria as she dropped dozens of bags onto her bed. “Hi!” she repl
Alpha Rowan's Secret Luna Chapter 29: It's ALPHA Rowan
Why did they smell so similar? It couldn't be his perfume, since the one Rowan used was markedly different. Maybe it was just her senses that were confused. She had undergone a transformation of sorts, even if the effects were less noticeable now. She shuddered when she remembered the strange hunger and hypersensibility she felt while in a daze after Rowan had rescued her. "...I'm sorry about that. Aunt Marla says she's on her way," Luke said, and Adria began paying attention to his words again. "Let me get you more water." Luke stood and held out his hand. When Adria attempted to pass him the empty glass, it bounced off her leg and shattered on the floor beneath them. "I'm so sorry!" She stood, not realizing that a glass shard had flown into her sandal, wedging itself between her pinky toe and her fourth toe. "I'm making such a mess," she cried out, as blood poured out of her foot. Luke didn't even look at her when he picked her up and placed her on the couch. Adria didn't ha
Alpha Rowan's Secret Luna Chapter 30: Bad Blood
"Sorry. Alpha Rowan," Luke said, nodding towards Rowan. The tension in the air was almost palpable, and after a few seconds of a very strange standoff, Adria began to wiggle in Luke's arms."We're pretty much here. I can walk, really," she said, her eyes dashing between Rowan and Luke.There was clearly some history or bad blood between the two, and she didn't want to be in the middle of it. Luke looked like he was about to protest, but Rowan spoke first. "If he carried you here, then there must be a reason for it." Without so much as a warning, Adria felt Rowan's arms around her, gently picking her up from Luke's arms. "What happened?""It's just a small cut...""Let's go inside," Luke said, gesturing for them to enter the clinic. Adria hadn't even realized that they had already arrived. A nurse rushed toward them, and Luke promptly told him there was nothing to worry about as they navigated some hallways and reached an office with a bed. It was clearly Luke's; the walls were li
Alpha Rowan's Secret Luna Chapter 31: Stay With Me Tonight
Rowan didn't know what to say. He had behaved like an ass, and he knew it, but his pride didn't permit him to say this out loud. Part of him thought that he was STILL being an ass, not trusting Adria with this... issue he had with Luke. But he was angry, and he wasn't known for being a rational man when incensed. "Nothing..." he muttered, stepping out of the car and heading towards the door. When he reached it, he realized he hadn't even let Adria out. Turning, he saw that she had simply exited the car through the driver's seat. The wounded look on her face threatened to make him get down on his knees and beg for her forgiveness."Rowan?""You shouldn't be walking," he said, approaching her. She placed a hand on his chest, stopping him from picking her up again."I can tell there's something you don't like about Luke. Is it anything I need to know?" That was the problem. He didn't really have anything against Luke, other than the fact that he had basically grown up under his shad
Alpha Rowan's Secret Luna Chapter 32: I Always Finish What I Start
"I mean, a little longer?" Adria quickly added, realizing Rowan could misinterpret what she meant. "I'd love to stay with you," Rowan said, smiling at her. "For as long as you want." "Until I fall asleep, then?" "Sure." Adria went to the bathroom to get ready for bed and came out to find Rowan on the side of the bed she didn't use. She almost gulped at the sight of him without his shirt on.He was casually looking at his phone as if this was completely normal.Was he daring her to not... do anything?But then again, she hadn't thought of him when she changed clothes. The pajamas Luna Marie were short, barely covering her rear, and the top was a thin thing that clung to her skin. His eyes drifted toward Adria, who still stood by the bathroom door. She quickly looked away, setting her clothes on the dresser. "Your fan doesn't work," Rowan said as an explanation. "I'll have them come check it tomorrow.""Oh, I hadn't noticed." Adria went towards the bed and got in on the other side
