All Chapters of Never Reject A Secret Luna Heiress: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Rue’s POVThe very next morning, I hadn’t expected the dean’s message so early—his assistant appeared outside the class’ door, smiling politely as she said, “Miss Rue, the dean requests your presence at the main auditorium in an hour. You’ve been chosen to give the opening speech for the new academic term.”I blinked. “Me?”“Yes, ma’am. As the top student of the department.”From the seat next to mine, Vicky squealed. “ Rue! That’s huge!”I rubbed my temple, half amused, half exasperated. “I wasn’t prepared to give any speech.”“For sure,” She said, already tying her hair into a knot. “I am positive lots of people will be there. The dean, the professors, the seniors… maybe even reporters! Rue, this is your big moment!”Her enthusiasm was infectious, even though I was hiding it behind a nervous smile. “Let’s go then.”By the time we arrived at the auditorium, the hall was already buzzing. Hundreds of students filled the rows of seats. The faculty sat up front, smiling expectantly.Laur

Rue’s POVVicky’s relatives had already made themselves comfortable on the velvet couches as though they owned the place, their judgy tones filling the air.“I’m not saying you did that,” one aunt said, crossing her legs elegantly, “she’s the one who bought the villa for you? Right?”Vicky stiffened beside me. “Yes,” she said carefully. “Rue’s my best friend. She worked hard for everything she has.”“Worked hard?” another woman drawled, lifting her chin. “Ah, yes, of course. But these days, who knows what ‘work’ really means, hm?” She paused just long enough for her words to sting. “A girl like that must have…rich targets.”The way she lingered on the word made me feel uneasy.Vicky’s hand tightened around her teacup. “You’re implying something ugly,” she snapped. “Rue doesn’t need to ‘target’ anyone. She earns what she has, fair and square.”The eldest uncle gave a nervous chuckle. “Now, now, let’s not fight. We’re just curious how someone so young could make this kind of money.”“I

Sora’s POVI was the first to speak.That mattered to me because once words were spoken, they became true if spoken with enough conviction.“Rue once loved Aiden deeply,” I said firmly, my voice cutting through the silence in the living room. “That kind of love doesn’t disappear overnight. If we go to her in person, if we apologize sincerely, she will see us. She’ll do it for Aiden’s sake.”I repeated it in my mind as I spoke, polishing the idea until it sounded unquestionable, even to myself.She loved him.I had seen it with my own eyes. The way she lingered outside his study, the way she endured humiliation, the way she still defended him long after he had stopped defending her. Love like that didn’t vanish. It transformed, yes, but it could still be used.I didn’t say that part out loud.Instead, I straightened my back and continued, already constructing the future in my head.“When we meet her,” I said calmly, “I’ll ask for very little. Just an introduction into the inner circle

Rue’s POVThe luxury car glided forward in near silence, its tinted windows sealing me off from the world outside. The city lights slid past as I leaned back against the leather seat and let out a breath I hadn’t realized I’d been holding.Going back to that Pack.The place where I had once lived as someone expendable.I had thought, once upon a time, that time would dull the pain. That distance would soften memory. But some wounds don’t scar over.They become part of the bone.I no longer felt anger. Not even resentment. Just… clarity.They had belittled me when I had nothing. They had dismissed my voice, my worth, my existence. And when my daughter lay between life and death, burning with fever, they hadn’t merely turned away.They had cursed her. Cursed a child.That was the moment hope had died like a candle snuffed out by careless fingers.The car slowed as we approached the outer perimeter of the Pack grounds. Guards straightened when they saw the crest on the hood, recognition f

Rue’s POVThe fifteenth arrived without ceremony in my heart, yet the world seemed determined to make it unforgettable.I woke before dawn. For a long moment, I lay still, listening to the distant footsteps in the corridor, to the low hum of servants already at work, to my own breathing.Today was the engagement banquet. Blood Claw’s engagement banquet. One that my father had originally organized with Red Moon Pack before I had run from Blood Claw Pack. This time, it was confirmed.I rose slowly, dressed simply, and made my way toward the grand staircase. The estate was alive.Below me, the vast hall bustled with activity. Servants moved in lines, carrying floral arrangements, crystal trays, ceremonial banners embroidered with the sigil of Blood Claw. Guards stood at attention along the villa’s pillars, their armor polished to a shiny look. The air itself felt charged, humming with expectation.“Big day, huh?”I turned to see Cole leaning against the banister, arms crossed, a faint s
