The Luna’s Reckoning
On New Year’s Eve, I made a last-minute decision to get my claws done.
The salon was packed, so I had to share a room.
The moment I sat down, the woman beside me glanced at me with open disgust.
“Get out. I’m allergic to poor people.”
The attendant tried to smooth things over.
“Ma’am, we’re fully booked today. Please—”
But she cut her off coldly.
“Do you know the pink diamond Sotheby’s auctioned on Christmas? Worth six hundred thousand.”
“Today, I’m setting it into my claws.”
She looked at me like I was filth.
“With someone like her here, what if she swaps my diamond?”
Sotheby’s?
My hand froze over the magazine.
She smirked and held it out.
“Take a good look. Know the difference between you and me before you crawl away.”
I glanced once.
And recognized it instantly.
That diamond… was mine.
“I lost it recently,” I said calmly. “Interesting how it ended up with you.”
She laughed.
“Jealous? My mate gave it to me as a New Year gift.”
“You wouldn’t even survive hearing his name.”
I smiled faintly.
“Try me.”
She lifted her chin.
“My mate is Kael.”
My smile froze.
What a coincidence.
He’s my mate too.
I raised my comm-stone and dialed the patrols.
“Hello. I’d like to report a theft.”
