"I never expected that you would be able to break out of the illusion." Tristan heard the voice of the moon goddess.   He looked around to see that he was in a dark space but hearing the Moon goddess voice made him feel at ease.   "What happened, Moon goddess? How did I get there and why am I here now?" He asked, perplexed.   " A lot happened to you while you were asleep but rest assured. You only slept for two hours. There is still plenty of time for you," the Moon goddess told him.   "What do you mean? The last thing I remember was collapsing in my office. So why did I wake in that place and why am I here now? Why did I suddenly feel pain in my chest?" He asked inquisitively.     " Like I said, a lot happened. Tristan Stone was attacked in your body and stabbed. He was on the edge of dying but I had to intervene and switch things up wh

  "How have you been?" Tristan asked Lydia with a smile on his face.   Just holding her hands made him feel warmth in his stomach.    "I've been good. I'm glad you are awake now," Lydia told him.   Simon cleared his throat. "Aren't you going to go after Tristan?" He asked.   Tristan rose his brows up in a questioning. "What would I do?" He asked.   The facial expression on Simon's face told Tristan that he was surprised to hear his reply.   Tristan had decided to keep Lydia by his side now that he was awake and stay away from Jade so that he would get his mission done.   Jade was a problem before the Moon goddess had altered time and now she was one too. She didn't even change one bit and he wasn't surprised.   "Wow! You are really not going after her? What if she commits suicide?" Simon questioned.

Now that Tristan was left alone in the room, he saw it as the perfect opportunity to speak to the moon goddess and have her clarify to him all that had happened and why he was friends with Jade when he wasn't.   He tossed and turned on his bed, disturbed by so many things. He wanted to call for the moon goddess but he just couldn't at the same time.   He was lying on his back with both palms placed on top of his stop while staring at the ceiling. It wasn't dark in the room yet it felt dark for Tristan. It has always been dark for Tristan. All his life he saw darkness.   Whenever he thought of his curse, he wished his father was never cursed and his mother did not have to die because of it. A memory of the past resurfaced in his head and a lone tear slipped down his cheek.               Seven years old Tristan saw his ma

Jade stared at Tristan with a frantic expression masked on her face. "What do you mean by that?" She asked. Tristan took a deep breath. He had always said he was going to do what he felt was right after all his fate was in his hands. He didn't want to keep acting nice to Jade anymore, not after what she did to him before everything changed. "It's as it implies. You say Lydia is suspicious but the true suspicious person here is you. You can't accuse someone you do not know when you are the real suspicious one," he told her.  Jade's eyes fluttered and then her brows creased. "I'm surprised by your statement. You think I am suspicious?" She scoffed. "I have known you for years Tristan and as for you, you haven't known her for half a year and you trust her more than you trust me? Why is that so?" She got up from where she was seated and raked her hair with her fingers.&n

Tristan had never felt so good before. Since he woke up in the morning, he had a smile on his face, one that he was sure could not be replaced because of the moon he was in. He felt he was closer to accomplishing his mission in the human world and the thought of going back to his world and seeing the reaction he'd get his pack member sent warmth of delight in his belly. As much as he'd miss some things and people in the human world, he knew it was all temporary as he'd have to go back to his world where he ruled as an Alpha.  "Sir, Miss Melton is here." Aria informed Tristan. "Tell her to come in," Tristan ordered and she nodded her head before leaving. Lydia walked in looking effortlessly gorgeous in a strapless black dress, showing off her long legs and gladiator black heels to match. She was barely having any makeup on her face, l
