Georgina Sinclair's POV:

Ryan finally left almost an hour ago. Not with an apology. Not with clarity. Just a stunned silence and followed by the sound of the door closing behind him. It was softer than how he came in.

The same blanket is wrapped around my legs while I'm sitting in the same chair. This time, the magazine has been left on the floor and my tea is now cold. My hands are neatly folded on my lap.

But I am not alone for long.

A quiet knock taps on the doorframe once. Then again. Lighter this time. I don't answer but I turn my head on its direction.

And there she is.

"Ver." I quietly said.

She carefully enters my room and swiping her wet hair away from her face. The scent of the forest clings to her clothes while carrying her bag over one shoulder. She appears tired, damp, and slightly annoyed.

"I apologize, Luna." she said while closing the door behind her. "It took longer than I had expected. Some of the ingredients for the masking potion are almost impossible to find these

  • The Luna's Redemption   Bride-To-Be

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:The sunlight enters through the window is warm against my skin when I finally wake up. For once, I don't feel groggy or tense. My limbs feel light and I don't feel any stress or restless thoughts. I stretch under the soft sheets before letting out a satisfied sigh.Then last night's memories come back slowly. I had a late dinner and Marius shared some of his childhood stories. The way he tried to impersonate Lydia's stern voice made us both laugh for almost an hour. When Marius lets his guard down, he has a playful side that is surprising for an Alpha with authority ingrained in his very being.I grab my phone from the bedside table. There are no new messages from Ver. But then I see a single missed call from Ryan. I roll my eyes and toss the phone back on the bed with a sigh. I can almost hear his voice already. 'Where are you? Come home now! You need to explain yourself to the Council."But not today. I will not let Ryan to ruin this peace I finally found e

  • The Luna's Redemption   Adored

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:The room is too dark when I open my eyes. I can not even remember where I am for a second. I do not recognize the soft sheets or the subtle jasmine scent in the air. Then I recall the lovely lunch, Lydia's generosity, and Marius's estate. And after that...I stand up slowly while rubbing my eyes.I do not plan on sleeping this long. I just wanted to lie down and think. I get my phone from the side table and check the time. The screen lights up in the dim room and nearly blinding me. It's already past eleven.My notifications show a few missed messages from Ver.(The old councils are looking for you. I don't know why. But something feels off.)(Also, Old Keith asked to talk to you. Alone.)(Alpha Ryan is still in the estate. He's been busy after Danica complained her stomach is throbbing. The doctor said it was because of stress. She is making it everyone's problem.)I let out a tired sigh and type back a quick reply.'Let them wait. Tell Old Keith I'll talk to

  • The Luna's Redemption   Wedding?

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:"Please sit. Come on, dear."She ushers me toward a chair with a motherly sense of urgency and pulling it out herself before turning away to fetch a tray. I glance toward Marius and Harry who are already seated at the other end of the table. Marius raises a brow at me with a half smile on his face while Harry offers a polite nod.But Lydia? She's in full motion.She starts by giving me a bowl of tomato soup. Then she also brings me sliced roast lamb, a plate of garlic rice and a small bowl of stir-fried vegetables back."Lydia...""You hush. You are much too thin for a young lady. Look at those wrists! You need meat on those bones. You are probably not eating at all. Marius didn't mention you were practically wasting away!"I blink and caught between amusement and mild horror."No, Lydia. It's just—""Don't worry, dear. We made this with a full heart." Lydia adds while setting down a glass of freshly squeezed juice beside me."I... Thank you." I say with a sma

  • The Luna's Redemption   Beta Lydia

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:Ver returns not long after. She walk straight to me and gives the bag with a quiet grunt."There are clothes and toiletries. I couldn't take much without looking suspicious." she muttered.Then Ver gives Marius a sideways glance before looking back at me. "I will keep you updated, Luna. I will hide your location for the meantime. Only a few know you left but that might change soon."I nod before looking at Ver with soft eyes. "Thank you, Ver. I owe you.""You don't owe me anything, Luna." she said. "Just... Take care of yourself."Ver gives Marius another look like she is reminding him she will know if anything goes wrong. Then without another word, she turn around and leave. "Alright." Marius said before getting the bag from my hands. "Let's go now.""Yes." I answered.Marius puts my bag at the back seat before we both enter his car. After several hours, we finally arrived at his estate.The word "estate" barely describes it.As we get closer to the long i

  • The Luna's Redemption   Crashing

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:I can still feel the last of the tension as I see the large gates of the council estate. I feel like I am carrying the weight of everything. But beside Marius, I feel just enough at ease to keep moving forward.Then I hear hurried footsteps behind us."Luna Georgina!" It was Ver's voice.I stop walking and sees Ver running toward us. "Are you alright, Luna?" she worriedly asked.I nod and shows her a tired smile."I'm fine, Ver. Really. I'm just... Shaken. That's all."Her eyes quickly scan my face to look for any cracks in the lie. She must see something that reassures her because she finally nods. Although I can still see the worry in her expression. Then her gaze moves to Marius.He is quiet beside me. He is not moving or saying anything. But I can tell he is watching her just like how Ver is watching him. Two unfamiliar wolves are silently sizing the other up. Ver squares her shoulders and straightens her posture. She doesn't back down. Marius tilts his

  • The Luna's Redemption   Verbal Fight

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:All eyes are locked on him.Marius looks composed wall and calm. But I know better. His calm expression is hiding a simmering tension. Marius seems to be holding something back. But I can see the look on his face.Marius is furious.Yet he doesn't raise his voice. He does not stomp or snap like Ryan or the other Alphas do. He walks confidently and showing that he has nothing to prove. Alpha Robert, who had just been roaring accusations at me moments ago, stiffens as he turns to face Marius fully. His eyes narrow at him."And who exactly are you?" Alpha Robert asked while trying to sound stern. "And what are you doing barging in during a private council meeting?"Marius raise an eyebrow and gives him an amused look. He doesn't respond right away. Instead, he casually adjusts the lapel of his dark coat and sweep his the room with idle interest until it lands on me.Then our eyes meet.Something inside me settles. Not because I need saving. But because finally,
