All Chapters of Rebirth Of The Broken Luna: A Second Chance at Luna's Heart : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Chapter 51: The Breaking PointLUMINAThe room began to spin all over me as I watched Silvia lead Sophia and Riley through the penthouse like they were best of friends. The sound of her constant praise for Riley, the way she kept touching Sophia's arm familiarly showing love and acceptance– it was everything she'd never given me in six years of marriage to her son.My chest felt like it was being tight all of a sudden, each breath becoming more difficult as the reality of the situation dawned on me. This wasn't just a surprise invitation. This was a deliberate humiliation planned by Silvia who wanted to show me exactly where I stood in this family. And it was at the very bottom, apparently.The voices around me became muffled, distant, as if I were hearing them from underwater as I began to sway from left to right. My vision became blurry and I felt a familiar panic rising in my throat..I needed air. I needed space. I needed to get away from the sound of Silvia's happy laughter as

Chapter 53: Dinner From HellLUMINAThe dining room had never felt more like a battlefield in my life than it did that evening. I sat in my usual chair, the one I always used when coming here for countless family dinners over the past six years, but tonight it felt like I was sitting in the enemy's territory.The table was swinging a precise setting – seven place settings instead of our usual five, with Sophia who was seated directly opposite me and Riley was seated beside Ollie.Samuel had taken his usual place at the table. As the head of the family although I could see the tension in his shoulders and the way his eyes kept moving between his wife and the rest of us, searching for something .It was clear to anyone that would pay attention that he was clearly uncomfortable with whatever game Silvia was playing, but he wasn't going to call her out on it publicly because she was still his mate first and foremost.Xenois sat beside me, sitting tense as his jaw were grittee together tig

Chapter 55: The Unravelling XENOISThe tension at dinner has been too much and it felt suffocating even to me.There were forced smiles and polite exchanges that were being exchanged through the dinner and it kept piling on a shaky foundation.When we were finally done with dessert, I knew I couldn't let this petty charade continue any longer without addressing what was happening here."Sophia," I said, standing from my chair slowly keeping calm as I looked at her, "could I speak with you privately for a moment?"Her eyes brightened up with that looked dangerously like hope as she beamed happily nodding her head. "Of course.""Perfect!" Mother spoke up before I could say anything else to her as she took lead once more and said. "You two go have your chat. Lumina, dear, why don't you help me with the dishes? We can have some girl talk while they handle their business."The way she said "girl talk" made my skin crawl, especially when I saw the look of pain that crossed Lumina's face.

Chapter 57: Safe HavenRILEYI was so happy when Ollie came up with the brilliant suggestion for a sleepover despite the fact that we hadn't talked about anything like it happening and I tried not to let the relief show on my face when Mom finally agreed to let me stay for the night. It seemed that she was backed into a corner especially with Silvia insisting that it was good she had a restful night without me around but I was grateful because I knew that I wasn't going to be the person she was going to take her anger out on.Inside, my stomach was doing flip-flops, but it wasn't the bad kind like when Mom got angry with me. These were the good kind, like when you find out you don't have to do something scary after all.From where I stood behind Ollie. I could tell that Mom was mad about whatever happened on the balcony with Mr. Xenois. She has put on that fake tight smile she wore when she was trying not to yell at me to stop being a brat in front of other people. Usually when she

Chapter 59: Food For ThoughtsLUMINAThe hot water rolled down my body from my hair as I stood in our master bathroom shower, finally allowing myself to have a moment to decompress from everything from what had to be one of the most stressful evenings of my life. I shook my head in resignation as I still remembered Sophia scent that had clogged my nose and Silvia scatting remarks.I was also surprised a little by Xenois behavior throughout this evening. He seemed to be the only person on my side. How ironic and here I was expecting it to be only Samuel and his support would be polite Indifference as usual.The steam rose around feeling like a protective barrier, and for the first time in hours, I could breathe without feeling like someone was watching every move that I did, waiting for me to make a mistake before insulting me. I leaned against the tile wall, letting the water wash away the tension that had been building in my muscles since the moment Sophia and Riley had walked throu
