บททั้งหมดของ The Vengeful Luna of Shadow: บทที่ 71 - บทที่ 80

(Anna)My hurried steps took me towards the burial place of my parents and family members. With a heavy heart, I stepped inside the pack cemetery and made my way to the graves of my parents, closer family relatives and pack members.The wind howled all around me and stray brown leaves whirled in it, announcing the onset of autumn. I stood there, watching the stone epitaphs with the names of my parents and others.They rested underneath the soil, never to rise again and the thought gnawed at my soul. I fell to my knees near my father's grave and placed my hand on the stone slab. It was cold as I rested my head against it and softly cried. My body shook from small tremors that wove their way through me because of the grief I had experienced."I am so sorry, Dad; I haven't been able to avenge your death until now. The people who wronged you are still roaming freely." My hands traced his name, 'John Carol' engraved on the gravestone."I am sorry everyone. I haven't forgotten any of you or

(Anna)Arriving at Asher's home we entered one after the other. As soon as I stepped inside, Oliver was waiting for us. He rushed towards me with his little arms open wide and a huge grin of relief on his face."Anna! You are back. I missed you." I bent down and he hugged me tightly, bathing me in relief."I missed you too, Oliver. How have you been?" I gently carried him to the sofa so we could sit and talk. Asher sauntered over and sat down beside us."I am good. I was just lonely without you. But now that you are back, I am happy." My heart squished knowing he wouldn't be pleased learning I had to go away again."About that, I have another important meet-up with the pack who invited us to that dinner banquet. So I will be leaving tomorrow."Oliver's lips downturned at my words but he quickly got his composure back and answered."You know what, I think I will join you guys on this visit and can learn a few things."

(Anna)"Oh! I am ready. Go on, Anna." Lancelot took another sip of his whisky.So I began by telling him everything that had happened 6 years ago. Ruby and Noah's betrayal and their involvement in killing my father and other important family and pack members.I informed him I never colluded with any rogues; they were all made-up stories. And then how I had to join the Shadow Organisation to become strong because Ruby killed my wolf with Aconite.Every revelation had Lancelot's eyes widening and his angered grunts becoming louder."Those two, I never thought they would be so evil. I am so sorry, Anna, I wasn't there to protect you. What must John think of me? What kind of friend am I who couldn't protect his daughter?" Lancelot was shaking from the anger and all the lies Noah and Ruby had concocted.I knew it wasn't Lancelot's fault. They had everyone fooled. So I comforted him."I don't blame you. No one would have believed

(Anna)(NSFW Content)Firstly, such a lavish dinner with flowers, and now the documents. What was this man doing to my heart?I peeked at him with gratitude-filled eyes and my voice came out heavy as I thanked him.Asher leaned closer until there was a distance of a few inches between us. Taking a stray strand of my crimson lock he twirled it on his index finger and asked in a deeply husky voice."Is that all you are going to offer, Anna?"He tucked the hair behind my ear, and his thumb grazed my cheek, making my skin sweetly tingle, and my cheeks burn.I understood that a simple thank you won't suffice this time."What do you want Asher?" I asked, trying to keep my voice from quivering so much. His eyes danced in mischief as he answered in his deeply throaty voice that hit straight in my core."You know exactly what I want." His silky words were all I could hear. The heat scalded my whole face and I lowered my gaze to escape those alluring eyes of his. They wished to trap me.But my

(Author's POV)Taking Asher's advice, Anna began to frequent the social events of Howler City. From charity auctions to gala dinners.She would put on lavish gowns with matching heels. Curl up her hair and hold a fancy clutch in her hand. While her other one would be wrapped around Asher's arm.They made a perfect couple, the media and paparazzi couldn't get enough of them. Their pictures would be flashed and made headlines."The heiress returns with a bang.""The forgotten heiress makes a glamorous comeback.""The foxy heiress and the handsome Alpha King."Every newspaper printed their own version of the headlines and story.

The Howler City was caught in a frenzied storm, created by Anna Carol.Soon it became well-known that she was very close to the Alpha King as well his young son, Prince Oliver.
