The Moon's Curse; Mated To The Alpha Who Killed Me のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 51 - チャプター 60

Vera couldn't take her eyes off the stone. Her name was carved into it. This wasn't a coincidence and not something similar. It wasn't something close enough to make her doubt herself. It was her name exactly as she knew it. The sight made her stomach twist because there was no explanation for this. The stone looked ancient. Older than the academy. Older than the kingdom itself. Yet somehow her name was sitting there like it had always belonged. How could a name that was modern, and probably not the same name she could use in a past life no matter what be here? Even if she had a past life, there was no way she had used this name, right? Raymond noticed her expression long before she spoke. "You've been staring at it for five minutes. Is there something you would like to say?" Vera looked at him. "Can you read what's written on it?" Raymond walked closer and studied the symbols for a while. His eyes narrowed slightly before he shook his head. "No." "You can't read any of it

The moment the symbol began to glow, all three of them seemed like they were frozen. The half-moon mark lit up with a soft silver light that spread across the ancient stone structure. The glow wasn't violent or dangerous, but Vera still felt her heart beating faster. It felt familiar. Too familiar.She unconsciously took a step back."What is that?" Henry asked quietly."No idea," Vera answered honestly. "I don't think it's anything you want to mess with." Raymond didn't say anything. He was staring directly at the symbol.Vera looked between the both of them. "Can you see it too?"Henry frowned. "Of course I can see it."That made her feel slightly relieved.At least she wasn't hallucinating. For a moment she had wondered if she was the only one seeing it again. The probably wouldn't believe her if she said she was the only one who could see it. The silver light continued spreading through the ruins until strange symbols began appearing around the structure. They slowly lit up one a

Lying on the floor was a crystal. It was not just a normal crystal. The inside looked like liquid moonlight. It glowed softly. It looked beautiful and dangerous at the same time.Vera felt that strange pull again. The same feeling she had when she saw the necklace. The same feeling she had when she entered the ruins.It was calling her. She hated it.Raymond noticed. "Don't touch it."Vera frowned. "I wasn't planning to.""You were thinking about it. I can tell what you're thinking.""Stop reading my face.""You make it too easy. You don't even know how to hide your expression and you expect me not to read it. I can tell you a very mad at me right now."She rolled her eyes. Henry crouched down and carefully picked up the crystal. The moment his fingers touched it, nothing happened. Everyone looked disappointed.Even Henry."I was expecting something dramatic."Vera sighed in relief. "That's good. Let's keep it that way."Unfortunately the universe didn't listen. The crystal suddenly f

Vera couldn't stop thinking about it.Even after classes ended, she kept replaying everything in her head. The competition. The Founder's Ceremony. The mandatory participation. The relic. The mark. And somehow Raymond was connected to almost all of it.That alone annoyed her.She had spent two years staying away from trouble. Now trouble seemed determined to follow her everywhere.The moment classes ended, students flooded the academy grounds. Groups were already discussing strategies for the competition. Some were practicing combat. Some were forming teams. Others were bragging about how they would win.Vera wanted nothing to do with any of it.She headed toward the library instead.Unfortunately, she wasn't lucky enough to be left alone."Running away again?"She didn't even need to turn around.Raymond.Of course.Vera kept walking."I'm busy.""No, you're not.""I'm about to be.""Doing what?""Getting away from you."She heard him laugh behind her. For some reason that made her c

Raymond could hardly sleep the insane night because he couldn't stop thinking about Vera and how she was being so annoying to him, he just felt like strangling her most of the times but then he felt like he was getting too involved with her and getting angry, he didn't understand why he felt this way. He didn't want to admit to himself but he cared a lot about what she was holding back there. Even though she didn't want to show him and she kept hiding it from him, he was going to make her show him anyway but then what she said made him realize that he was forcing her and she didn't want to tell him anything so he just had to stop himself. But he felt like they came out his anger on everyone that was around him, including Henry, who came to ruin the moment between him and her. He went to take a cold shower because he felt like he was an idiot since he couldn't get her out of his head. What the hell was wrong with him? He kept thinking about the possibilities that he might have been be
