All Chapters of The Rise Of The Ugly Luna: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

        LYRIC  "What do you want from me!?" My voice rose a notch, tears starting to hit the back of my eyes.  "An apology." His eyes nor words held no emotion. "For not keeping me updated on such a huge step." "But you told me to stay away from you!" "Then, you should've sent a text or something. I just hate that I had to hear it from someone else, Lyric!" Oh, damn it. Luna Isolde is a very pretty woman, but she did a poor job raising her son. He was a manipulative monster! "I'm sorry." I ground the words. He pushed away from the table, coming toward me. "I can't hear you, Lyric." What? I looked up at him, same time a stupid tear came rolling down my eyes.  "I said... I'm sorry." I swallowed hard. It was humiliating to know I was apologizing

Fortunately, Jace was free when I asked him to come over. In less than three hours, he was at Darkspire and met Kael and I in the little outdoor restaurant within the Pack. Jace stopped in his tracks when he found Kael sitting at the table with me. I already told him he was to meet up with someone, but he didn't know it was Kael. "The fuck is he doing here?" He asked with a crumpled look. "Is he holding you hostage or something, Lyric? Or he's just here to try to piss me off again?" I noticed Kael fist his hand under the table, obviously fighting down his retort. "Jace, please. Sit." I urged, tapping the empty seat. He glared really hard at Kael before sitting down. Two seconds later, it sank in before I could speak. He raised his hands. "Nah, hold on. Don't tell me the 'someone' I'm supposed to meet is this fucker?" 

JARIS"Feel free to tell me about it. Everything, Jaris," Nivia said, her voice alone sounding soothing. Few days ago, if someone had told me I'd be seeking out Nivia for help, I'd have punched them in the nose.She was a popular psychological doctor. People came to her when they were passing through things they could not understand. Being over sixty years old, Nivia was very experienced and well respected in our world. People say she had answers to every psychological problem. I stood facing the window, my hand in my trouser pocket as I told her my problem. "For more than fifteen years, I have not been able to cum." Except that one time, five years ago. But I didn't mention that. "I am hardly even aroused or interested in a woman. But a week ago, I saw someone naked. And that very night, I came to the image of it." I shook my head. "I have not been able to get it off my mind. Worse, I keep cumming to that very image."I did not have any fear of sharing this with Nivia. She

    LYRIC  Jace sat next to me, his shoulders slumped in defeat.  "At least, tell me what you did, Ly. Why are these people after you? I need to understand how I can help." I exhaled a long breath. He was right. If I needed his help, he should know what I did.  It was terrifying that I had to say this. I was letting out a very big secret, but I didn't have a choice.  "Three years ago, I was in Mystopia." It was where I met Penelope and had my twins. But I didn't mention that to Jace. It wasn't important.  "I got a job in a hospital, but I was under training and supervision. I hardly interacted with the patients there. Then, I noticed that the few times I did, the patients could easily get better." I bit my lip, hesitating for what I was to say next. "One day, I stumbled upon a certain room. Before then, I'd noticed that room

LYRIC My appetite left with Jace after our painful conversation. I was scared, and a tiny voice in my head kept mocking me that I might not be alive for very long.I heard my door unlocking and snapped upright, waiting to see who'd enter. It hadn't been long since the maids brought me food. So, who was—Oh.My thoughts took a pause. Swallowing hard, I rose to my feet as Jaris made his way in. He was still wearing something corporate, which meant he must just be making his way home. But it was almost midnight. Why was he just coming back?'It's none of your business, Lyric.'"Good evening," I murmured. It was the first time he was coming to see me since he locked me up. I couldn't believe he could be so cruel to do this to me. I noticed his eyes linger on the tray of my untouched meal. He didn't seem pleased."Why haven't you eaten?" He asked coldly. "Nothing. Just didn't have the appetite.""Seriously?" He huffed. "You're not eating so you can lie to people that I starve
