All Chapters of The Rise Of The Ugly Luna: Chapter 201 - Chapter 210

LYRIC"Wh—What do you want?" I had to clear my throat to make sure it didn't come out raspy and give away the fact that I was crying."It was you."His words made me furrow my brows, until slowly, they made sense.He still pointed it out."The girl at the hospital. The one that saved me."I hadn't realized the extent of what I did until Caden himself was thanking me for it. Gosh, I hated myself right now."I didn't save you. I was stupid and didn't even know who you were," I snapped. I'd been beyond stupid."But you did save me." He sounded serious. "I've been looking for that same lady for years, Lyric.""Well, keep looking!""This whole time, you knew but didn't say a word."I pinched my brows, my frustration mounting as I so desperately wanted to let it out on someone."We—We need to talk, Lyric."What the hell?"Have you lost your mind? I'm not seeing you.""Please. I just need to...I need to see you.""Why?""It's important!" He suddenly laughed. "You're a Siphon, Lyric! Do

LYRIC Shocked gasps and whispers rippled through the crowd.The guards started moving, carrying in big ballot boxes.I could only watch in awe. Jaris planned all this for me?The place got noisy as people discussed the issue. I excused myself from the stage, running to a quiet hallway where I wept more.How did I deserve this?Just yesterday, I'd been worried sick that there might never be a solution for me. And today, he had gone the extra mile for me. The jerk was ready to give up his crown for my sake.What the hell?I heard approaching footsteps and knew it was him.I faced him, my vision blurred, offering a quivering smile."You jerk." I hit him lightly in the chest. "Why would you plan all of these and not even tell me? I didn't— I didn't even say a word."He cocked a brow at me. "Well, I didn't mention anything about you giving a speech, did I? I only asked if you were strong enough to stand before the Council."I laughed then hugged him, burying my tear-soaked face in the

MARTAThe mirth was gone from her face. She looked vicious now as she stepped toward me."You think I don't see what you're doing? You probably forced yourself on Jaris and quickly took in for him. All for what? To secure your spot beside him? Well, guess who's still Queen, Lyric."I laughed in her face. "Oh, poor Marta." I tsked. "Stupid Marta. Always thinking everything's a competition. What Jaris and I share is special and something I'll never call a competition. Sadly, it's also something you'll never be able to understand as you've hardly ever been in love."The thought struck me, furrowing my brows. "Have you ever been in love, Marta?"The further crumbling of her mask said it all."Good gods," I muttered, faking pity. "You've never actually been loved by someone. Your whole life, you've only wanted a man who has never really wanted you. A man who only made you Grand Luna 'cause he chose his kids. And despite being grand Luna, you're still insecure because you know you'll

JARIS At first, I felt nothing, my mind numb. Then, a small laughter slipped through, followed by a bigger one."Lyric," I repeated, still laughing.Then, just like a switch had been turned off, I stopped abruptly. "Why don't you tell me, which part of your brain has been affected? Is it terminal? Are you going to die? Oh, I hope you do die 'cause your brain is definitely tired of working.""I'm serious," Caden said."And I was serious when I said I hope you do die."A brief moment of silence, followed by an atmosphere thick with tension. "I need her," he sighed. "I've been searching for her for years and didn't know she was your mate this whole time. I'm trying to make this as peaceful as I can. Hand her over, and you'll never hear from me again.""Too bad that is never happening," I tsked. "As a matter of fact, you're an asshole for even spitting this trash. How possible do you think it is that I'd gladly hand Lyric to you? You mention her name one more time, and I'll damn t

     JARIS The argument lasted for sometime with people from the low ranks throwing words against the high ranks. When I'd had enough, I signaled them to stop talking. "Miguel," I called the high-ranking Alpha involved. "You do realize that Jaxen's family worked hard for this company, don't you? If the roles were reversed and you had to give it up—something you've worked so hard for—would you be happy about it?" He shifted uncomfortably in his seat. "My King, I perfectly understand your point. And truly, a part of me feels bad that I'm taking this from him. But it's my inheritance. Mg father was a clueless man who didn't know how to work hard for something, and instead, gave it away. Now I want it back. I even told Jaxen he has the right to demand for something higher if he doesn't like what I'm offering. I think I'm being considerate enough." "Oh, fuck you and you consider
