The Luna's Prey Chapter 25: That Thing Called 'Love'
(Luther)I DELIBERATELY walked away as slowly as I could because I wanted Alexandra to call me. I wanted her to stop me from walking away because once I get out of these woods, once I leave her here with Giovanni, I feel like we’ll only drift further away from each other.Here I was, thinking we could somehow work things out since she was starting to talk and open up to me. But this happened.In the end, my expectations had hurt me again. I never really learned.My parents were the living proof that falling in love was a terrible thing. And yet, even while knowing that, I still fell in love with Alexandra. I only realized it when I saw her embracing another man. I think I’d been in love with her from the first time I saw her and that feeling must have grown more as I watched her from afar all these crazy years.Maybe I first fell in love with her bravery. No one was ever that brave around me. When I saw her again in Manila, I fell in love with her determination, with her guts.Then I
The Luna's Prey Chapter 26: Never Enough
(Luther)AFTER getting out of the car, I ran. I don’t remember ever running this fast before. Fear and anxiety were gripping my heart so strongly that it was difficult to breathe. I could feel the sweat building on my forehead and yet, I feel cold inside.In the hallway, I found the fifty-year-old butler and the head maid. Both of them looked stupefied.“Where is she?” I asked in a hoarse voice.The butler lowered his head. “We will lead the way, Sir.”In my head, I still wanted to believe that this was all a lie. My mother couldn’t be dead. Pa was not even here so maybe it wasn’t true. Maybe this was only a prank because she wanted to see us. But then, Pa was never around when she needed him, when ‘we’ needed him.When the butler led me to the mortuary, my hands began trembling.“I’m sorry, Sir. When we found the madam, it was already too late. When we brought her in this hospital, the doctor declared her dead on arrival,” the butler said in a low voice.I could still hear his words.
The Luna's Prey Chapter 27: Crimson Moon Pack
(Alexandra)“IF YOU join the Crimson Moon pack, we will help you out. If you were to join the Silverstone pack, your father’s previous pack, then it’s okay. We will send you to them. I know them. They are nice people. They will accept you and be glad to welcome you once they find out who your father is. The choice is yours, Giovanni. But let me tell you this: choosing wolves meant that you will belong to us from now on. Your loyalty will solely be to the pack and not to the humans,” Alpha Calypso told Giovanni after the latter told us his situation.Giovanni’s condition seemed better this morning. But he will still need training. Lots of it. Based on his story, he was not a true Sinclair. And he had only found out about it yesterday through Davina, his mother. Davina fell in love with a wolf and it was Alpha Bernard from the Silverstone pack. He was my father’s friend.And because their love for each other was forbidden, Davina and Bernard had a secret relationship. But then Mason spo
The Luna's Prey Chapter 28: The Villain You Created
I UNCONSCIOUSLY hit the break. Luther just called me this afternoon. And then I remembered his voice when he spoke. It was not like he didn’t tell me. He wanted to. But I unknowingly stopped him from doing so. Besides, those were the things I should have known if I was by his side.But I wasn’t.So, this was why I’d been feeling uneasy. Something happened to my true mate. I glanced at Giovanni.“You heard it. We are not going back to the woods. We are going straight to where my husband is,” I said as I maneuvered the car and stepped on the gas.Luther had been very careful not to drop his mask in front of everybody. That was because he had something he wanted to achieve. I know that much at least since I’d been studying him these past few months. He had never let his guard down except last night, when we were together. I felt… his sincerity.In front of the public, he was a flawless businessman, a good friend, and an obedient son. He had never displayed his real emotions. He had been
The Luna's Prey Chapter 29: Her Own Kind of Devil
(Alexandra)“THAT woman you’ve been glaring at is Michelle Villar, twenty-seven years old. She was last year’s Miss Universe first runner-up and currently works as a runway model in the States. She’s your husband’s ex-girlfriend and among his ‘tremendously famous’ exes, she’s the one who got to be with him for more than a year. I heard that was his longest relationship ever. She was currently having a vacation here and unlike someone I know, when she learned about Luther’s situation, she rushed to his side that there were some people who thought she was his wife.”“I’m not glaring at her, Beatrix. I’m only looking at her face. And so what if she’s famous? I know my worth, Beatrix. You can’t put me down just like that.”She giggled. “Then why are you pouting?”“I just think that the reason why people mistook her was because she doesn’t know her place. That woman is not the real wife but look at her, acting like a snake as she wraps her arm around Luther’s arm,” I answered while my eyes
The Luna's Prey Chapter 30: Stay
MICHELLE staggered. And just like the guests, she didn’t seem surprise about my identity. She knew what I am.I noticed that she was more gorgeous up close. She didn’t have to wear a heavy make-up or to dress so daringly for men to look her way. Her breasts were almost exposed because of the extremely low neckline of her black dress. It didn’t seem like she came here to mourn, but to seduce someone, especially with that silver stilettos. She just made this mansion her runway!Looking back, had I ever hated a female human like this before? I think I’d always been too busy to care.Not to mention that Luther hadn’t glance at my direction the entire night. These were the things that I wouldn’t normally pay attention to. And I didn’t want to pay attention as much as possible. But I find myself constantly looking at Luther. As soon as I saw someone getting close to him, I felt a lump in my throat.“You’re joking, right?” Michelle said, stuttering.“Wolves don’t joke around, Miss Villar. So
The Luna's Prey Chapter 31: Same Book, Different Pages
(Luther)I WOKE up when I felt a soft hand on my cheek. When I opened my eyes, I saw Alexandra sleeping beside me on the grass in the backyard. When I glanced at my wristwatch, it was almost eleven in the evening. She really did stay.For others, this woman was my poison. And maybe she truly was my poison the same way she was my cure. Only this woman could build me up, break me, and then build me again. Tonight, because she was beside me, I was able to breathe just fine. The whole time without her felt like there was something stuck in my chest that I couldn’t get out.Things don’t magically become okay just because we are with the ones we love. That bullshit only happens in movies, in books. But I realized that somehow, with Alexandra around, things become a lot less painful, they become… endurable.And how I wished my mother was able to feel something like this too when she was still alive. But from the day she fell in love until her last breath, love just remained a poison to her.
The Luna's Prey Chapter 32: I Like It When You're Bad
(Alexandra)THE SOUND of my ringtone woke me up. I was still yawning when I opened my eyes only to be surprised when I found out that it was past six in the morning already. I think I woke up twice, but my body still felt too heavy that I couldn’t force myself to move.Or maybe it was because of Luther’s scent in the room that I was able to sleep comfortably again. He arrived in the room at four and when he saw me awake, he said that he could take a nap now that there was Suzanna who could replace him downstairs. Then he pulled me close as he slept and without knowing, I fell asleep again.I found my phone on the bedside table. The call was from Clay. Luther had also woken up from the sound although he remained lying on the bed as he held my free hand.“How are things there? As for the pack, the new wolf didn’t let anyone here get even a wink of sleep last night. It's morning now, but he hadn’t shifted back to his human form yet,” he stated.“So, it’s about Giovanni,” I said and turne
