Rebecca

The final count was drawn out like a tortuous, agonizing pain by the auctioneer's voice. "I'm going once."

My ears throbbed with my heartbeat.I was afraid I might break my teeth from clenching my jaw so tightly. "I'm going twice"

"Two thousand." It was a voice from the rear.Before I could even process the number, I felt a wave of relief.

The man in the mask was the same. Two thousand. I almost let out a squeal. My whole body lurched as if someone had suddenly poured freezing water and blazing fire into my veins.The impulse to rush over there and wrap my arms around him made my fingers tingle.

I wanted to give this total stranger a hug for sparing me from financial disaster and public shame. I tilted my head as though I had anticipated this moment and pressed my lips into a gradual, smug curl.God forbid I showed anyone how on the verge of panicking I had been. It was a necessary business ethic to remain composed.

The auctioneer also appeared startled, but he recovered.Two

  • Cursed Luna   Rebecca

    Rebecca The street was so calm that it felt like I was strolling into a painting. The only things that moved were a few sellers now and then. Everything else was dark and quiet. My guards walked two steps behind me, close enough to follow me but far enough away to be polite and act like they weren't leashes. Tch. There were a lot of different smells in the air. There were smells I liked and smells I didn't like. It was like a lot of things and nothing at all. The fragrance of poverty, which I had grown up with, and schadenfreude. A bad try at being a wannabe. My walk came to a standstill as the one shop in particular lured me in. It was hidden between a cobbler’s and a tailor’s, its wooden sign deteriorated to the point where the painted letters were only ghosts of what they used to be. In the display window, was the reason I had stopped. The sparkle from the shop had captured my attention. Jewelry. I had always adored sparkly things. My mother used to joke tha

  • Cursed Luna   Rebecca

    I attempted to remove the sensation that persisted on my skin by running my hands down my arms.It was unsuccessful. I could still smell him.I was plagued by the heat of that kiss and the pressure of his body. I was ashamed of myself for experiencing this emotion.If I had anything to blame, though, it would be the cursed bond.It left me powerless. For a brief minute, I had worried whether I was in my heat as my core fluttered.I could still stand, but there was a new sensation burning between my thighs, so I guess I was getting used to him a little. I began brainstorming fresh strategies to evade the Alpha while my mind was still spinning, attempting to process what had transpired.Finding something to occupy my time was the first thing I did on my list of excuses. He became my personal trainer, so that had gone south. My second priority was to leave the pack home. I had only ever left my father's house to run errands before.I was essentially a prisoner and never had enough time

  • Cursed Luna   John

    John I just gazed at her as if what she had said made no sense when she had cursed me, but memories flew through my mind, and something kept bugging me. Bloody memories, including my father's body, being the reason behind my mother's passing.I kind of held myself responsible for their demise.However, that didn't validate her claims or alter anything. "Do you believe that putting me in jail makes a difference?"Her voice was calm and gentle as she requested."Son, you bear the same darkness that I do.Don't act as though you are clean, John. However, after I left her in that dungeon, her words followed me like a second shadow.I had hoped for clarity when I went there.However, I departed with a disorganized and chaotic state of mind. I therefore proceeded to the one location that was often helpful.The training room.Somewhere I could beat it out of myself, sweat it out, or bleed it out.All I needed was something to strike. However, I was surprised to see that Rebecca and he were standi

  • Cursed Luna   A Spy

    RebeccaIt was like getting hit by a horse if a horse left a funny tingle in your toes and a satisfying jelly-like sensation in your legs anda burning in your throat and an oddly sharp and metallic scent at the end of your nose. Wait.Metallic?My eyes opened, and I stiffened at the sight of the wooden sword pointed in my face.And it was stained with red. Blood. Oh, that was what my blood smelled like, dripping from my nose. I blinked rapidly, willing the dizziness away as I scrambled to sit up. My butt hurt.My pride hurt even more.“Are you okay?” came a lazy, deep voice above me. He offered a hand and I swiped at it,annoyed that I had failed just like that, disgracing my ancestors.I tilted my head and blinked through the sunlight, looking at the now familiar face.When I walked in to see him standing there I had wondered if the world really was this small or was this guy stalking me?He raised an amused brow. “We have to start from the basics, ma'am. You can’t skip the proc

  • Cursed Luna   The Luna

    RebeccaOver the next few days, I dug through the archives at my office in my spare time, looking for information about what it meant to be Luna. Apparently there were old laws, ones that weren't practiced anymore for almost a hundred years. I also learnt that the Luna shared in the Alpha's powers when she was fully marked, there was no place where it was mentioned that the Luna marked the Alpha. It incensed me for some reason.All my life I was told to learn to be submissive. Yield to authority. Do my father's, husband's, and then my son's bidding. Nowhere was it mentioned that women got these rights.Well, thankfully most women knew better than to simply be daughters, wives and mothers. I've seen a few inspirational women and I dared to dream that I would one day become one of them.All I wanted to do was rebuild the legacy my mother left behind. Even if it cost me everything else.I felt a quiet rage simmering inside me. All my life, I had been molded to be something silent. Pleas
