All Chapters of Reborn for vengeance: From ashes to Luna : Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

ADIRA'S POVI did not mean to disrespect him. I just could not bring myself to stop. But even now, after everything, I did not feel any better. My heart still felt like it was going to explode.My fingers curled tighter around the steering wheel, and I rested my head on it. I was still seated in the car when I heard a knock at the window. I turned around to find my parents’ faces.I heaved a sigh. Reluctantly, I pressed the button to pull down the window. “Hey mum, hey dad,” I greeted.I did not bother to look at them because I knew I would not like what I would see.Dad grabbed the door handle and pulled, but the door was locked. “Adira, open the door. We need to talk,” he said in an angry voice, though I could hear the underlying worry."I am sorry, Dad, but I need to go now. I have things to attend to in the pack. Plus Lumina is waiting. I promised to take her to go see flowers today,” I replied, still looking straight ahead.“Young lady!” My mum whisper-yelled. “We really do need

RYDER'S POVHer nose flared in anger. “What do you mean by ‘that’s not true’, Ryder? Are you trying to call me stupid?” she snapped.“No, I am only being sincere,” I said quietly. “Sincerely, at first when I saw her, I was caught off guard. I couldn't believe she was standing in front of me. It was something I never expected to happen, so I can understand when you say I looked at her a certain way. But after that I wasn't sure how to act. My heart still recognised her, and seeing her brought back memories of what we shared. I couldn't bring myself to immediately be harsh to her. But that never stopped the love I have for you.” I unconsciously moved closer. “That day that people saw us leave her room together, nothing happened between us.” I explained and went on to tell her everything that happened between Scarlet and me that day. “That was all that happened. I don't want to be with Scarlet. My heart belongs to you,” I said sincerely.“You say that, yet you changed the moment she set

RYDER'S POV“Dada?” I heard Lumina yelling. The sound felt like it was coming from far away, like a dream. “Dada!” I heard it again, and this time it came with some soft taps.It finally felt real, but I still could not decipher what was going on. Lumina could not possibly be in my room. Adira hates me, so I have not been able to see Lumina much.I sighed heavily as I stirred and lay on my back before opening my eyes. With my eyes fixed on the ceiling, I immediately noticed something was wrong.“This is not my room…” I thought to myself in slight panic mixed with disorientation. I could feel some sort of heat by my side, which was unusual because I had been sleeping alone. “Oh no,” I muttered. “Did I sleep with Scarlet? Please let it not be Scarlet,” I thought to myself anxiously.Slowly, I moved my eyes, my heart beating rapidly, but before I could see the face, Lumina yelled again, “Dada!”This time I was forced to turn and look down. The voice sounded too real to ignore. “Lumina?”

RYDER'S POVI left the room quietly and went back to mine. I slumped onto the bed and lowered my head into my palm.I felt irritated with myself, a feeling I had come to know too well since I realised how badly I had treated Lumina and Adira. I was not just irritated and disgusted with myself; I also felt physical pain in my chest at the thought of how much she must have cried and hated her life during those times.I massaged my chest softly, trying to ease the pain away. But it persisted. I sighed heavily. I know it sounds selfish, but I had really thought we were past this. I thought we had built a solid foundation filled with love and happiness that drowned the past. But apparently not.My head swung up. “Actually, this is all Scarlet’s fault. Things would not have gone bad if she did not appear out of nowhere and stir trouble,” I muttered to myself angrily. “I hope she is out of this pack already.”I opened my mindlink and reached out to Jackson. “Jackson,” I called out.“Yes, Alp

ADIRA'S POVI watched as he enjoyed the breakfast, and once he was done, he took out his plate and cleaned it up.“I am done now.” He folded his hands on the table and looked at me.“Do not be too surprised or shocked. It is honestly a lot and quite worrisome.”“Okay. I will try,” he replied.I went on to tell him everything that I found out in the book. While talking, I brought out the book from my bag and pointed him to places he should read. His face remained expressionless as he read. I worried that I might have broken him by telling him not to act shocked, but as my eyes landed on his hands, I knew exactly what he was feeling.His fingers tightened on the book almost to the point of tearing it. He eventually looked up slowly, his eyes remaining impassive, yet they had turned red.“So what this means is that the masquerades are after Lumina because there is someone else trying to use her for evil. So in order to stop them, they try to kill her instead of killing the crazy person t
