All Chapters of The Luna's Redemption: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Georgina Sinclair's POV:Alpha Marius has been persistent.It's been two days since the first message and I should have stop replying him by now. That would have been the smart and safest thing to do. But instead, I keep replying to him. Sometimes my replies are short. Sometimes it's sharp or with just enough sarcasm to bait him. But only those who are aware of his influence on others can afford his responses which are always so simple. Even worse, I find myself waiting for his next message more and more as it drags on.Most of our conversations are tense. It's half business and half banter. His questions about the Silver Project are strategic and precise. And yet it somehow always loops the conversation back into something that hovers at the edge of personal. He is playing a dangerous game with me.And the fact that I am playing it back bothers me.(Marius: Should I assume the silence means you’ve finally read the fine print? Or are you too distracted thinking about me?)'I was actu

Georgina Sinclair's POV:The steam from the bath has barely left my skin. But I'm already layering calm over my features like it is an armor. The shirt I wear is a deep midnight blue. It looks elegant, understated and not something I've worn in front of Ryan in a long time. I pin my hair up with precision and letting just enough fall to frame my face. Then I press a scent patch to my neck with a steady hand.It smells like wild primrose and frostwood. It's clean and crisp. Unlike the chaos in this house.I take a final glance in the mirror and straighten my back. Then I walk downstairs with poise. The click of my heels is soft against the hardwood but enough to announce my presence.Ryan is on the couch and lounging with Danica who is currently half-curled against him like a delicate ornament. She is laughing at something he just said in her ear. Her fingers brush against his chest in a slow circle as if claiming she is claiming her territory.The sight doesn't shock me anymore. The h

Georgina Sinclair's POV:After a long moment of quiet, I notice that Alpha Marius is still watching me. There's something calculating behind his gaze now. It's not cold or cruel. Instead, his gaze is too thoughtful for me.Then unexpectedly, he speaks."Tell me, Luna Georgina..." he slowly said. "Do you know how to tell if a land can prosper or not?"The question throws me off for a moment. It's not what I expected after our business exchange. I blink my eyes then I carefully reply."A little. I've learned things over the years especially after I start managing the Silver Project. You will learn how to read the earth, the flow of water and how the wind moves over open fields. You learn to listen."Marius smiles faintly and almost like he's pleased. "Good to know. Then come with me."I raise a brow. "Come with you where?" I asked."To see a land I own." he plainly said. "It's a vast and undeveloped land. I've had my eye on it for years but I never found the right person to evaluate i

Georgina Sinclair's POV:The hut has been deserted for months. Many spiderwebs are hanging from the corners of the hut, the wood appears old and the roof is a little crooked. When Alpha Marius opens the door, he both notices the windows are dirty and the door is making a loud creaking sound.There is also a cloud of dust rising from the wooden floor of the hut when we enter it. The whole hut smells like old wood and stale air. But still, the whole structure looks solid overall. Although the hut doesn't have a regular maintenance, this place still looks sturdy enough to withstand a storm.Alpha Marius puts his duffel bag near the door and looks around like a trained soldier. I silently rub a thick layer of dust off the old table by the window with my fingers."It is not much." he muttered. "But this will do."Alpha Marius flips a switch he finds on the wall but nothing happens. I did not expect electricity. But my hope dies hard."There should be supplies left behind." he said and alre

Georgina Sinclair's POV:The sunlight coming from the window wakes me up. My lashes flutter open slowly and I feel reluctant to leave my good sleep behind. The gentle brightness of morning is entering in from the hut's narrow window and it is landing directly on my face and it is forcing me to finally wake up. So the storm has finally passed. There is the faint chirping of birds outside the hut. But above all, the thunder has stopped. Seeing this, I try to remove the blankets from my shoulders.'Wait a minute. Blankets?' I blink my eyes again until my mind becomes clearer now. There is a familiar weight over me. I recall this thick fur lining was placed next to Alpha Marius last night.I look around and sees Alpha Marius is sitting on the wooden floor beside the fireplace. His head is leaning back on the stone wall and still fast asleep. And he is still very much half-naked.My eyes widened at the sight. His chest steadily rises and falls. His strong arms are loosely crossed. A few
