All Chapters of The Rise Of The Ugly Luna: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

JARISIf I didn't know any better, I'd think this was a dream.I knew what she was up to when she stood behind me. I knew she wanted to give me a massage—something that was beyond weird.I wanted to stop her, except my hands didn't work with my brain.The second her hands touched me, I was enchanted, trapped in a time and place I didn't want to escape from.Her hands on me were divine, bringing me sensations I didn't think were possible from mere hands. How the hell was she able to do it?So, despite how strange the situation was, despite the fact that I should've stopped her, I sat there and let her. And enjoyed it.If I didn't know any better, I'd think she was doing this because she liked me. But I knew what she was there for. I knew the mark she was looking for. And I knew she'd gotten her answer the moment she lowered the shirt from my neck.I kept my eyelids sealed, giving her the freedom to discover her answer.There was no mark there. No color. And I sensed her disappoin

    LYRIC "How're you doing, Lyric?" The frostiness in her tone didn't make it seem like she actually cared. The woman was naturally cold and intimidating—something that proved she was the mother of Jaris. "I'm doing just great, Luna. And you?" I added the last words hesitantly. As expected, she didn't answer that. "It seems...you and Jaris are getting along well." My forehead creased as I met her gaze. "I notice the cheerfulness between you two these days. Yesterday, you even visited him at his office." She scoffed. "How cute." Okay. What was she driving at? "Is...there a problem, Luna?" "Of course, not." She shrugged. "I just hope you still remember what your deal is with Jaris. This whole thing—it's fake. It's a contract. And in less than eleven months

LYRICI realized I hadn't been mistaken when I spotted someone familiar from the crowd. It was her.And even now, she was staring at me, giving me that chilling look, letting me know she could see me.What was she doing here? How did she get an invite?Unlike the previous day, she was wearing a long pretty dress. The tattoos on her arms and neck made her look fierce in a dress that should've made her look like a Princess.The dress didn't even look fitting on her. She looked like she'd be way better in jeans or whatever she wore at the mall yesterday.I broke our contact, attempting to distract myself with something. But it wasn't possible. Not when I had a killer in front of me. A killer who was out to get me.But was it possible she knew who I was already? Was that the reason she was here?I took a deep breath, trying and failing to calm the storm in my heart.I needed to know if she was here for me. If she was, I was dead anyway. So, why don't I just risk it?There was only one

LYRICFor a moment too long, I was frozen, not knowing how else to proceed.Maybe I should turn around and leave. What if the corpse manages to speak and expose me?I knew it sounded stupid. But I wasn't joking when I said I wasn't thinking straight.I pushed myself forward. It was better if I knew what their thoughts were. At least, that way I'd know how to proceed with myself.Getting to the entrance, I found all the people I knew in there, Jaris being at the forefront. The body was still there, a painful reminder of the life I'd taken."What are those marks on her wrist?" Luna Isolde asked.Jaris crouched to touch it. Judging by the look on his face, he had no idea about it.He turned to some of the guards beside him. "Take care of the body and find out who she was."At that moment, I couldn't express how grateful I was that there were no cameras in this part of the Pack. The guest house was hardly used.The guards nodded as Jaris walked away, coming toward the door. He paused

JARISThe Elders were already waiting in the meeting room before I arrived. The look on their faces wasn't good at all.I expressed concern when I noticed Luca's state. The man was badly bruised, like he had gotten into an accident or something.A hint of what the problem might be crossed my mind, and I didn't like it."What's going on?" I remained standing at the head of the table.Somehow, Luca looked angry at me. But it seemed he was too scared of me to act it."I was attacked, Alpha Jaris. And you wouldn't believe who it was."I said nothing, prompting him to continue."Someone from the dead." My hand slowly curled into a fist. "Your brother."I experienced a profound chill deep inside, like frost settling over the warmth of my heart. I'd seen it coming. But getting to confirm it was another feeling on its own.My expression remained impassive. The Elders might easily think I don't care, but they didn't know the war taking place in my head."What is this, Alpha Jaris?" Anot
