"Luna is missing!" Phoebe yelled, running toward the festival and holding her gown up. Alexa was slowly trailing behind her with a smug look on her face. She was glad Luna could not be found and hoped she was not going to ever come back. "She went missing after falling off the roof," Phoebe said. Bartram turned at the mention of Luna falling off the roof. Adrian stopped talking and glanced at Phoebe. "What do you mean by she fell off the roof?" Bartram asked, jumping to his feet. Phoebe rubbed her eyes; tears were threatening to fall from her eyes. "We were having a chat on the rooftop, and Alexa showed up. She pushed Luna off the roof." Alexa frowned. "I didn’t push her; she slipped." "You pushed her!" Phoebe yelled. "You did it intentionally." Alexa walked toward Adrian. "You don’t believe her, do you? I never did anything to Luna; she slipped." Adrian stared at Alexa, not knowing what to say. Everyone who could hear what was happening began murmuring. Bartram was on the e
Adrian stared at her, a shocked expression written all over his face. He wondered what he had done wrong. She showed up and claimed she was going to reject him."You can’t do that!" He yelled. "You can’t reject me."Bartram grabbed Luna by her wrist and excused himself. "I want to have a word with her."Adrian nodded, but Alexa was smirking. Phoebe looked horrified that Luna had said she was going to reject her brother. The T brothers, on the other hand, were only watching out for what was going to happen. Bartram dragged Luna to a corner, and before he could start talking, Luna began."I don’t think I can accept him as my mate; he never believed me or his sister when I told him his girlfriend pushed me off the roof.""His girlfriend?" Bartram was taken aback. "You mean Alexa?""Yes." She answered. "I am not willing to fight for a man; if she wants him, let her have him. She dares push me off the roof to kill me; I feel like casting a spell on her and making her ugly and disfigured."
When Luna woke up the next morning, Adrian was gone. After they had walked around and talked about random stuff, he offered to walk her home, and when he did, Her father invited him in for a drink, and he gladly accepted it. The men began talking and totally ignored Luna. She walked up the stairs and went into her room to sleep when she was about to fall asleep. She heard her father in front of her door telling her goodnight. After having her bath and changing into casual minishorts, a crop top, and a jacket, She hurried downstairs to find her father. When she found him, he was in the kitchen, cooking. The food aroma was alluring, so she walked beside him and glanced into the pot to see what he was cooking. "This looks so yummy." She complimented. "I feel like eating already." Her father smiled at her. "Good morning to you too." She glanced at him. "Good morning…" Her father, guessing what she wanted to ask, interrupted her. "Yes, yes, Adrian left late at night. He almost got dru
Luna frowned after what had happened yesterday. Adrian still took Alexa with them after their walk yesterday. He had asked about her ankle and said he was going to question Alexa properly. Luna was sure he did, and he believed the lie she told.Alexa smiled as she looked at them. "I'm going to see my mother to ask if I can also join the class."Phoebe frowned. "No way! You can't join."Alexa moved her head toward Luna. "If she is joining, I am too, and if she is not, I won't."Alexa smirked at Luna. Phoebe's frown grew wide. "You can't join because you are different from Luna.""Different? We are both Beta's daughters."Luna decided to make it stop. "Let her be Phoebe; she is only going to ask her mother."Phoebe gave Luna a look and whispered. "I am going to kill Adrian.""Are you getting in or not?" Adrian asked."Why won't we?" Phoebe asked.They walked to the door; the door opened, and Trevor was holding it for them to get in."If your brother hadn't let her in, she wouldn't be on
After dropping Alexa off on a pathway that leads to the woods, Luna asked about her mother staying there alone. They shrugged her question off without replying. The ride was longer than they claimed, and Luna was homesick by the time they reached the school. "We have arrived," Adrian announced. As he opened the door and stepped out, Luna stood up from her seat and threw her bag over her shoulder. Walking towards the door, she took a quick glance around, noticing that the place was empty and quiet. The building was painted a bright shade of white, while tall trees stood proudly within the compound. The building itself looked impressive against the vast environment. "This place feels like a school for witches," Luna remarked Adrian reached out his hand, offering it to Luna. She took it, and with his assistance, she stepped out of the carriage. Phoebe and Trevor followed suit, and Phoebe began speaking about the building they were approaching. "It used to belong to the witches, but t
He hoped Neon had done as he was told. He had arrived here in the morning to speak with her and see her, but she was with a girl, and they were heading somewhere. He didn't have the time to follow them, but Neon had suggested he follow them to know exactly where they went.He stood in front of her door and rang the doorbell again. He knew her father was there; he had seen him through the window. He was helping her arrange her room."Who is it?" Her father's voice called from the inside.Ashford was quiet. He rang the doorbell again. Inside, Bartram dropped the book in his hand and walked to the door. He pulled the door open with a frown on his face. Ashford's back was facing him, and Bartram furrowed his brows when he could not recognize the person."How can I help you?" He inquired.Ashford faced Bartram and met his gaze. Although he had seen Bartram a few times before, this was the first time he had seen him up close. Luna and Bartram looked similar except for their eye color. Luna'
She stepped back as he approached. He shouldn't have known about her being mated to someone else. She had previously told him that she wasn't interested in being his bride, but now she had confided in him that she had agreed to become Luna of the werewolf pack."I really don't know how to break it to you. I was aware that you would be upset," she clarified.She felt a chill as she looked into his icy gaze and instinctively stepped back. He kept advancing, causing her to retreat until she was backed up against the wall of the building. He pushed his hand against the wall, trapping her between his body and the hard surface. She braced herself for what was to come, raising her hand in defense.Her heart was pounding in her chest as she closed her eyes, unable to meet his gaze. She couldn't stop thinking about what he might do to her for rejecting him and choosing Adrian instead. She could feel his warm breath on her face as he leaned in closer, and then his breath on her neck.""You shou
Luna looked up as she heard footsteps approaching, taking her focus away from her own thoughts. The sound grew louder, prompting her to turn back to Ashford. His eyes were locked on her with intensity."Before he gets here, you should leave, or..." Her voice trailed off, and she seemed hesitant."Exposed?" Ashford asked, looking at her knowingly. "Are you worried he'll find out that you're also associated with a vampire?"Luna looked away, finding it difficult to admit that she wanted him to leave to protect her hidden secrets. He had a remarkable talent for detecting when she was lying."What happens if he catches sight of me?""I can't say," she replied.Ashford's touch was gentle as he cupped her face, his gaze unwaveringly locked onto hers. Luna maintained eye contact, her gaze tracing the path his eyes took from her own to her nose, lips, and finally her neck."You inquired about whether I could mark you, didn't you?"Luna remained silent, allowing him to continue, his voice a so
