Novel & Cerita Blood Orange Karina Halle

I winked at him and I saw his face showing his shock about something again. “Hello everyone! Mind if we join?” I heard an unfamiliar female voice. In the corner of my eye I saw Zurig turn his face in her direction too. Oh, that must be Caroline. I can understand why he would say I look like her. She has the same Red Urban color hair as I do. Her eyes are the color of the rainbow. Never saw that before.

Alice wasn’t sure if all of them were vampires, but she continued counting people inside and tried to memorize their faces as much as she could. "Hey, what are you standing there for. Go on and do your work." A staff inside, which she was sure was a human, suddenly scolded her and Karina. She doesn’t look like a maid but like a corporate employee instead. Her bright red lips irk Karina for some reason though.

Karina screamed in shock. “WHO ARE YOU?!” Rebecca shouted, her eyes glaring at Karina. “WHY ARE YOU CLINGING TO MY FIANCÉ?!” Samuel reacted immediately, stepping between them. “Rebecca! Hey! Wait! It’s not what you think!” Rebecca brushed off Samuel’s hand. “I’m not asking you, Samuel. I’m asking her. This woman! Who are you, huh?! Trying to get attention by pretending to fall?!” Karina—aka Nora—pretended to panic. “I don’t know who she is! I just accidentally bumped into him... I don’t know anyone here, I just arrived…”

Katarina’s POV A scream tore through my throat as my eyes trailed down to my bloody body. My blurry eyes shone out in terror as I stared dangerously at the blood-stained down from his body to the bed, almost streaming to where I lay. I couldn't help but scream again as I realized what today was, and instantly hands reached for my mouth, covering it to avoid more cries from coming out as I kept staring at him for heaven knows I didn't know the face of the man laying beside me in the pool of his blood.

I moved slowly out of my room. And then I saw her. Cara. She was standing in the hallway, wearing a red dress that sparkled like fire. Her hair was curled perfectly, her lips painted red. She looked… proud. Confident. Evil. When she saw me, she laughed softly. “Wow,” she said, looking me up and down. “That’s what you’re wearing? You’re not even trying anymore, are you?” I didn’t answer. She moved in closer and whispered, "Don't go to the pack hall. You'll only embarrass yourself. Do you want to cry in front of everyone when he claims me as his Luna?"

Aries takes Alyona’s hand, and they leave for the club. *** At the Club, Cara stepped out wearing a crisp, white shirt that contrasted with her black mid-thigh skirt. She coated her face with layers of makeup, making her lips stand out in a bold, cherry-red shade. Her dark blonde hair was up in a high ponytail, and Kohl was highlighting her hazel eyes. The manager cast his eyes up and down upon her, and Cara felt anxious under his penetrating stare. “Open the first two buttons of your shirt. Our waitresses need to look hot and desirable.”

"Shall we?" Georgia nodded, her excitement palpable as she hurriedly opened the door. As they stepped out into the less bustling hallway of the hotel, all eyes turned to Karina, her radiant beauty captivating every onlooker. "Isn't that K. Everhardt? The famous entrepreneur!" "She's the brilliant actress taking Hollywood by storm!" "I never thought I'd see her in person. She's even more stunning than I imagined!" Karina soaked in the adoration, her confidence soaring with each passing moment. As she approached the waiting white limousine in front of the building, Georgia caught up to her, a hint of urgency in her voice.

After drying off, she pulled on a fresh outfit and brushed her hair into a neat ponytail. Without wasting another moment, she headed down to the first floor for breakfast. --- The dining hall buzzed with conversation and laughter. On one side sat the omegas. At the head of the other table sat her father, with her mother by his side and the other high-blood wolves she recognized. Her uncle and Harold sat beside Thalia, who was beaming. Beta Kelvin was smiling. Knox sat nearby, dressed in a black suit, his hair tied back in a sleek ponytail. The sunlight highlighted the sharp angles of his face.

Hastily, she placed one hand on the bathroom door and yelled, "Don't! I'm coming out now." She closed her eyes, opened the door, and finally stepped out of the bathroom. Slowly, she walked out into the bedroom while trying her best to cover her body with both hands. A hungry look flashed through Kirk's eyes once again. Caroline was wearing a red bikini. Her skin was fair enough, and the red color made her skin glow even more. It also emphasized the red marks all over her body. She looked very enticing, like a strawberry he wanted to gobble up in a single bite. He couldn't restrain himself any longer.

Karina looked confused, the meaning behind Nina’s words completely lost on her. Before Karina could ask, Nina stood up and took Orion’s hand. Noticing the half-eaten tangerine in his grasp, she casually took it with a playful raise of her eyebrow. “What? Your own mom isn’t allowed to eat your tangerine?”
