All Chapters of Reborn for vengeance: From ashes to Luna : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

ADIRA'S POVWe left the hospital room and made our way out. Ryder walked ahead while I followed behind.I froze when I noticed bloodstains on the floor. My gaze shot up, and that was when I saw it. His sleeve was soaked, blood dripping from his arm, leaving the trail behind him.Before I could think, I rushed forward. “You are injured!” I grabbed his arm, panic rising in my voice. “Didn’t you notice? You should be treated before we go.”As I raised my head, his shocked eyes met mine, and that was when I realised what I was doing.I pulled my hand away quickly, heat rushing to my face. “Why are you acting out!” I scolded myself silently. Clearing my throat, I forced my tone flat. “You should get treated. I am only saying this because you were hurt while saving Lumina,” I added, hoping to ease the earlier awkward situation.I didn't want him to think I still cared or liked him.His expression hardened. “Leave it alone. I am okay,” he muttered and turned away.I walked briskly and steppe

RYDER'S POVEveryone who had been involved in the unfortunate incident was finally awake. Lumina, the omega girl, and Lumina’s nanny, but the doctor had insisted they remain in the hospital until tomorrow for proper monitoring.So I was home alone because Adira remained with Lumina.I couldn't sleep. I didn’t know if it was because the house felt empty and hollow or because my mind was racing with thoughts I didn’t want to think. But I worried for Lumina and for the pack.After tossing and turning for a while, I eventually left the room. I took a bottle of red wine and a glass from the kitchen and drank in the dark sitting room. Wolves have high alcohol tolerance, so before I knew it, I was down to the last glass and slightly tipsy.My ears twitched at the sound of footsteps close by. It was night, and everywhere was silent, so I was certain someone was trying to enter the house. I moved quickly toward the door, a hundred thoughts running through my mind.“Could they be here for Lumin

ADIRA'S POVLumina was asleep after eating this morning. As I looked at her sleeping figure, I sighed.I should have dropped her off at the nursery to play with other kids, but I couldn't. I went in with her and still left with her. It wasn't until that moment that I realized how much fear the kidnapping had put in my heart.Real fear that made my heart pound and my eyes water. So I took her back home with me. And as I entered, I locked my door.My excuse was that the house was too quiet… someone could come in.I sat by the window of my room in silent thought.Neither Lumina's nanny nor Lyra heard or saw anything that could help us solve the mystery behind Lumina's kidnapping. So it was a complete dead end.“Do you still have the memory of our death?” my wolf suddenly asked.“Yes, I don't think I will ever forget. I can still remember every detail, but I have come to terms with it. It no longer sends me into hyperventilation,” I replied with a sigh.“Why do you think we came back to l

ADIRA'S POV“What do I do? We are about to be tied down to this life again. We have not even found any clues about our death in our past life,” I asked my wolf.“We may be about to be tied down, but certainly we are not the person we were before. Make the rules, drive the bargain, and make sure we do not fall into misery a second time,” my wolf replied.I turned around and walked over to the end of the office. I leaned on the wall and weighed my options.“Why is Lumina at the center of everything? In my past life, at the moment of our death, I had begged them to let Lumina live, but they had refused,” I thought to myself.Now again she was almost kidnapped. Is she the target, or am I the target? Or are we both the target?Does staying in this pack protect her, or will leaving protect her? Just like in past lives, the men who had caused us harm came from outside.So many thoughts ran through my mind. I could not figure out what to do.Mum’s face suddenly filtered into my mind, her word

THIRD PERSON POVAfter I left the office, I headed to the nursery to see Lumina first before anything else. I stood by the door and watched her play for a while without her seeing me.And true to Ryder's words, four warriors were guarding the vicinity for Lumina's safety.“Thank you for your good work,” I greeted them.They inclined their heads slightly. “It's our duty to protect her,” they replied.I turned to leave, but something crossed my mind, and I turned back. “I heard the story going around the pack that I am involved with the rogues, and I also heard that it was our warriors who started the rumor. Is this true?” I asked straight to the point without mincing words.Their eyes widened as I caught them off guard. “N…no, Lady Adira. Actually, we heard the story too. The only part we contributed to was that you go for a run occasionally, and that's the only time you leave the pack. I don't know how the story suddenly changed,” one of them replied.I nodded. “Thank you.” I turned a
