“You’ve got the wrong person.” Rael’s voice cut like steel between us cold and unshakable.

He stepped in front of me so fast I didn’t register the movement until I was staring at his back instead of her face.

Mara.

“I’m sorry,” she stammered behind him. “I... I thought…”

“You thought wrong,” he said flatly.

My heart slammed once and hard. I kept my head down, sunglasses on, and lips pressed tight.

“Zara?” she tried again, softer now. “It’s me… It’s Mara.”

I said nothing; I didn't blink or move. Rael didn’t either.

"As I have said earlier, you got the wrong person."

Rael said, getting irritated. "Keep walking," he added

“I just...” Mara’s voice cracked. “I saw her and she looked like...”

“You’re mistaken.”

His tone didn’t rise, didn’t shift but it vibrated with threat and still, she didn’t back off.

“It’s her. I know it’s her,” Mara insisted. “Zara, please...”

Rael’s hand brushed mine briefly and firmly.

I turned and walked fast without hesitating or reacting.

  • Luna By Blackmail   Chapter 32

    Zara's POVThe screen lit up, and the sound of my own past filled the ballroom.At first, the audio was muffled. The scrape of a chair. A low male laugh. Then Ethan’s voice, sharp and ugly.“She thinks she’s untouchable because her daddy left her money, that whore doesn't even know what to do with it."Gasps rippled through the crowd. My hands curled at my sides, but I didn’t flinch.Jade’s voice followed, sweet and venomous. “She’s pathetic. Always looking at me like I owe her something. Tonight, she’ll finally learn her place.”A woman near the front row actually put a hand over her mouth. The cameras snapped wildly.Then Mara. Softer, hesitant. “What if she catches us? What if she walks in right now?”The sound of bedsheets rustling. Jade laughed again. “Then we’ll give her a show.”The crowd erupted with disgusted murmurs. Someone whispered, “Monsters,” loud enough to carry.And then it came. My own voice, brittle and breaking: “What the hell is this?”The ballroom went still. Hea

  • Luna By Blackmail   Chapter 31

    Zara’s POVI let the disbelief crawl across their faces. Let the cameras flash. Let them sweat. I didn't rush them.Finally, I spoke.“You know who I am.” My voice carried without effort. “You buried me.”The silence shattered into gasps.Ethan lurched forward from the front row; His face was a blotchy red, eyes bulging with panic.“This is insane!” he barked, spittle catching the light. “That’s not Zara...she’s dead! This is… this is some actress, a cheap trick...”I tilted my head, slow and deliberate.“An actress wearing the ring you slid on my finger?”I raised my hand. The diamond caught the chandelier’s light, throwing sharp sparks across the room.Cameras clicked like gunfire.Ethan froze for half a second, then doubled down. “She’s lying! She’s been manipulated and brainwashed; this is Alpha Rael Kade’s doing. He found a woman who looks like her and fed her lines.”“Don’t say his name,” I cut in, calm as steel. “This isn’t about him. It’s about you.”The crowd shifted. Guests

  • Luna By Blackmail   Chapter 30

    Zara's POVI turned from the screen without another word, waiting for Rael to respond.My decision had been made, and I didn’t need agreement. I didn’t need comfort either. What I needed… was to feel like I belonged in this body again. Like I hadn’t been broken and buried and torn apart by men who didn’t deserve to say my name.And somehow, in this silence, in this room… I did.Rael was still standing behind me, watching. He had not spoken a word, but I could feel his eyes on me.Our eyes locked. The weight of everything between us, rage, ruin, survival, settled into something quieter. He walked to me and touched my cheeks"I'm not broken anymore," I whispered.“I never thought you were.”His hand lifted to my jaw. His fingers were rough, warm, and grounding. He just held me tenderly. I moved forward and kissed him; it was slow at first, then he kissed me back deeply, like he had wanted this all along.I tugged at the hem of his shirt and removed it with his help. His hands pulled me

  • Luna By Blackmail   Chapter 29

    Rael's POVLena’s words still hung in the air like smoke."Mara isn't your sister."Zara looked pale and broken, she stared into space as if she had been hypnotized.Lena glanced between us and excused herself without another word. The click of the door shutting left a silence that was almost alive. I watched Zara instead, not the way a man studies a woman but the way a soldier studies a wound. Assessing the depth, the bleed, and whether it could kill.“You...” I started.She stood before I could finish and turned away without a word. I thought she might head to her room, but her steps turned down the opposite hall to mine. I followed without sound. She opened the door quietly and entered. I closed the door behind us.She didn’t move far, she stopped in the middle of the room, arms crossed, shoulders high.No sharp edges tonight. No fire. Just weight, the kind that bends a person inward.I walked toward her slowly, each step measured. She didn’t look up when I stopped in front of her

  • Luna By Blackmail   Chapter 28

    Zara’s POV “She’s not your sister.”Rael said it without hesitation. No preamble or pity, just fact.I stood frozen, my back to him, staring out at nothing. My own reflection hovered in the window like a ghost.Not my sister?No. Of course she wasn’t; that’s why it hurt so perfectly. Rael placed the file on the table behind me. I didn’t turn.“She’s Silas’s daughter,” he said. “From another woman.”The air snapped in my lungs like it had teeth.“Her name is Mara Leclair. She was born three years after Silas married your mother. He kept her hidden.”I finally turned around.“What?”Rael’s eyes were steady but his jaw was tense.“She’s your half-sister, Zara but only through him. Your mother… she wasn’t Mara’s.”I stared at him. My hands felt too light; my chest felt heavy.“She’s not adopted?”“No.”“She’s his?”“Yes.” Rael muttered.“She lived in my house,” I whispered. “She wore my clothes. She slept in my bed when I had nightmares.”“She was placed in your life on purpose.”“To do
