In the car, my face hardened on its own.

“Sorry, the number you have dialed is not Miailable. Please try again later.”

Three times in a row, the same automated voice.

I called Julian.

Still no answer.

Missing both calls made my irritation boil over. A violent edge flashed in my eyes. “Drive faster.”

The driver answered quickly and pressed harder on the gas.

Mia tugged lightly at my sleeve and said carefully and timidly. “Victor… don’t be like this. You’re scaring me.”

Normally, I would’ve soften

  • Too Late to Save Your Luna   Chapter 11

    Before Mom’s anniversary, I flew back to the United States.That day, Julian was waiting early in the hotel lobby to take me to Mom’s grave.We parked outside the cemetery and walked in together.He’d bought so many flowers, like he wanted to make up for what he’d missed back then.On the headstone, Mom’s smile was still gentle, still warm.The wind lifted my skirt hem. I held my trophy in my hands and talked to her softly, endlessly.Julian stood aside the whole time, quiet from start to finish.When we left, I still couldn’t hold back the tears.Julian asked with red eyes, “Grace… is it true that no matter what me and Victor do, you will never forgive us?”I wiped my tears and spoke calmly. “I can forgive you.”“As long as you never come disturb my life again.”I could never forget those days of agony.And I would never go back to how it was.The wound healed, but the scar remainedI didn’t want to waste my life on hatred.So I chose to put past aside and to look forward, to keep goi

  • Too Late to Save Your Luna   Chapter 10

    Mia and her mother were brought in front of me by Victor’s people.I almost didn’t recognize the old woman as Mia’s mother.She wore dark clothes, no makeup, fine wrinkles etched around her eyes, gray at her temples. She looked sixty or seventy.Mia looked exhausted too, nothing like her old delicate, pampered self.In less than two years, they’d been worn down into this.They’d clearly suffered.I won’t lie, seeing them like this felt satisfying.But along with the satisfaction came a cold sadness.Back then, Victor and Julian adored Mia.And Julian, he’d treated Mia’s mother with such respect.I’d suffered so much because of their protection and favoritism.But after I left, they turned around and took their anger out on Mia and her mother.Their love, their hatred, their likes and dislikes. They were all so cheap.I admitted it: I hated Mia and her mother. I loathed them.But now, I loathed Victor and Julian even more.If Mia and her mother were pure bad, pure poison, then Victor an

    I called the police.After all this time, Victor no longer had his old confidence. He looked worn down, exhausted.In my imagination, without me, the “annoying” one, Victor might’ve been sad for a few days, then gone right back to living happily with Mia.I didn’t expect I’d mattered to him this much.But honestly?Who cares.The police arrived quickly.“This man has mistaken me for someone else,” I said helplessly. “He keeps harassing me.”I took out my driver’s license. “My name is Mia. It’s always been Mia.”“No. You’re Grace,” Victor insisted, even after seeing the ID. “Not Mia. We grew up together. I can’t be wrong.”“Then what proof do you have?” I asked.Victor went silent.I knew it.He didn’t have a single photo of me.Even childhood pictures, I’d gone to Julie myself and taken them back.Before I left, I burned every photo.Every last one.I let out a small laugh. “See? You can’t even produce proof. You’re just saying words. Why would anyone believe you?”Victor’s expression

    So I could only start preparing.To make sure I wouldn’t run into those two in San Francisco, I logged into an Instagram account I hadn’t used in ages and opened a certain group chat.There were more than twenty people in it, always loud, always lively.I had no interest in scrolling through rich kids flaunting luxury lives, so I searched their names directly.In the past two years, Victor ruined Mia’s reputation completely… and he didn’t keep any good image either.A year and a half ago, Mia claimed she was pregnant with his pup and cried in front of the media.That scandal made Victor even less favored by the elders.Less than a month later, Mia fell at home and lost the pup.Mia and her mother were kicked out of Bloodmoon Pack.They left New York and moved to another city.But with Victor and Julian keeping eyes on them, their lives wouldn’t be easy.From the chat, I learned Victor was on a business trip in Germany, and Julian’s whereabouts were unknown.No other useful information.

    Julian and I arrived at the station one after the other.He stated his identity and demanded to see the surveillance footage.After we watched it, a young officer brought out Grace’s personal belongings.“The footage shows Grace never left after returning to the villa,” he said. “She most likely perished in the fire.”“These are some of the items recovered from the scene.”Inside a clear plastic evidence bag was a diamond and a Blood Moonstone so burned it was barely recognizable.That diamond’s shape matched the diamond on Grace’s mother’s necklace exactly.The second Julian saw it, all the color drained from his face. He looked terrifyingly white.“That’s Grace’s most treasured Blood Moonstone… and her diamond necklace.”He murmured it under his breath, his throat sounding like it was stuffed with cotton, his voice raw and ugly.The room spun.My vision blackened in waves, my legs almost giving out.Mia arrived at the station too.“Victor… Grace, she—”Before she could finish, I whip

She’s spoiled and terrified of pain, so this time she’s still lying.”Mia leaned against me, her voice light and sweet. “Grace just c
