Все главы Reborn for vengeance: From ashes to Luna : Глава 151 - Глава 160

RYDER'S POVAs we watched, we did not expect the next thing that happened. It finished up the pieces that were dropped for it and stared at everyone in the room with a slight tilt of its head. The chicken jumped down from the table and began to walk around the room.“What is going on? It looks fine. I do not think the cake is poisoned,” Elder Calipers said, his eyes still pinned to the chicken.I turned to Lyra, and she looked unbothered. Gabriella, on the other hand, looked like she was freaking out. My eyes left her and returned to Lyra, who still did not look bothered that the chicken was still alive.“What is giving her such boldness? ” I thought to myself.“How long are we supposed to wait?” Gabriella asked. “The chicken has not died yet. We should conclude this immediately,” she said.I could hear the nervousness hidden under her voice.“It is about time the chicken died. It should not take this long,” the doctor said.“Maybe the poison is not the type that kills off immediately

ADIRA’S POVAs the warm water cascaded down from my head to my body, I could not help but sigh for the umpteenth time. I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs, but I could not do that.My wolf chuckled at my frustration and pain.“How can you be amused right now?” I hissed.“Do not yell at me, please. None of this is my fault,” she snorted. “If I were to advise you, I would say be fast and leave the house. At least the embarrassment you feel would have gone down before the end of the day.”“As much as I hate you right now, I think this advice is good, so I am going to do that,” I replied.I hastened up and quickly did all that I needed to do in the bathroom. Once I was done, I dried off and left the bathroom. Without thinking much, I grabbed a pair of jeans and a shirt to fit. I put them on quickly and grabbed other things I would need before I left the room.Slowly, I made my way down the stairs, tiptoeing to make sure I did not make any sound. I stopped as I got to the middle and

ADIRA’S POV As I walked out of the room carrying Lumina, Ryder was already done cooking. The aroma filled the place.“Yummy…” Lumina yelled happily, jumping in my arms.I chuckled at her excitement as I dropped her on her high chair.“Why does it feel like Lumina likes you more than me?” I asked as I sat down.“I do not think so.” He chuckled and sat down. “She does not like me more than you. I think it is my food she likes.” He looked at Lumina as she stuffed her face with the food.“She has quite the appetite.” I said in between laughter. Moving closer, I cleaned her cheeks with a napkin.“Like someone I know.” He muttered with a smirk.“I do not think she took after me in that. If anything, you are the one she took after.” I defended myself.“Well, let us leave it at that. Anything that helps you sleep well at night.” He replied and started eating.“Hey, I sleep at night alright. I do not need to lie to myself to do that.”“Okay, if you say so.” He replied, smiling.“You have to b

RYDER'S POVThe laughter was much needed because it diffused the tension.It did sound weird that two adults who are married and have a child are sitting together and then asking themselves what their favorite color is, but that is our story. It is unique and different, but it is ours.“We skipped the process.” I said to her. “But who cares? It does not matter how we got here; what matters is that we eventually made it here.” I said, still laughing. “What you asked was a perfect question, so let us start from there.”“Okay then, so what is yours?” She asked, crossing her leg.I cleared my throat. “I do not know how this would sound, but my favorite color is what you are putting on right now.” I replied.“Your favorite color is blue?” She asked, surprised.“Yes,” I replied.“That is quite the surprise. Guys always say their favorite color is black because they want to sound masculine.”“That is right. I also do that.” I chuckled awkwardly. “But I had to tell you the truth. Growing up I

ADIRA’S POV Her eyes flew up to mine as she noticed my tone change. “Luna…” she muttered, her tone soft and a little worried.Sincerely, I had tried to ignore the thoughts, but it didn't work. I was certain that there was something she wasn't telling me, and her attitude was clearly showing it.It also greatly worried me that my parents barely dodged the poisoning that killed them in their past life, and suddenly Lumina almost got poisoned. An incident that hadn't happened in our past life. It felt like it was the death my parents escaped that moved over to my daughter. Because one thing I learned is that for everything you change, there is a repercussion. That was one of the rules of the second life I got.And in between all that was Lyra, who knew about both deaths and also saved both. So I was right to be a little curious and suspicious.“Lyra!” I bellowed. “Are you going to make me force you to tell me the truth?” I snapped.I hated myself for doing this, but I knew I had to.“Lu
