Novel & Cerita Golden Scar

Strength she shouldn’t have. Gus reached into his shirt and pulled out a thin gold chain. A teardrop ruby pendant caught the filtered light and burned like a drop of blood. Kaela’s breath stopped. She knew that necklace. He placed it in her open palm. She turned it over. The engraving on the back was exactly as she remembered. **ARGENTUM LUNA.** Silver Moon. “Where did you get this?” Her voice came out thin. “Auction,” Gus said lightly. “Fancy one. Didn’t bid for it myself, of course.”

Tried to bring in as much money as possible but with my father’s illness- “She is in session. What is the nature of this visit?” One of the guards asked that stood beside the golden door. Like the door, their armor was made of golden metal. Gold fused with steel. Or something of the sort. If I had one of those, I could feed my family for a thousand years, if we worked with the money well enough. Yet here the spring goddess was, squandering it on her most elite guards. Never looking after her people. “He hunted in the sacred forest. The punishment-“

The secretary said. Manger York? The Yorks? Senior Zimmer grew excited. “Hurry and let him in!” *** “Another villa near the riverside!” “Thirteen million dollars cash!” “Ten golden combs denoting a happy marriage!” “Ten golden phoenix hairpins signifying an auspicious omen!” “Ten jade abacus for good fortune!” “Ten pairs of gold bracelets denoting a match made in heaven!” “Ten sets of golden bowls and chopsticks signifying conjugal felicity!”

Her fingertips showed faint wolf claw shadows from her nerves, which quickly faded. She feared Gloria couldn't gather the money and would ask everyone to chip in again. But Tamara had little cash left. Most of Adelaide's jewelry had been pawned. She heard Gloria had gone wild, and found out Sabrina bought a ruby set worth tens of millions at the Golden Jewelry Store. Her pupils shrank in rage. This was pushing the Bloodmoon Pack to the brink! Hearing Gloria was the one to buy it, she was so shocked her mouth hung open. Had Gloria lost her mind?

"Done!" I had no idea how long I spaced out, but Carla's voice brought me back to reality. She stepped aside for me to view my face in the mirror, I looked amazing, more beautiful than I have ever been. I also noticed my hair was done and my feet were now in a pair of Golden heels. Benedict's idea to look Golden for the Golden Stone pack. I wore a Gold and white strapless Mermaid dress, which glittered under the light, Golden butterfly pins holding my hair in a tight bun, my makeup simple yet beautiful, I looked my best.

I turned on the flashlight of my cell phone and Chase lifted out a medium sized bronze box which had beautiful designs and rare gems studded on it. "It's rusty and brown in color, Aless. I wonder why they call it golden box." Chase placed it on the bed. "Leave it right there, fuckers or you're gonna pay for your foolishness." Laura cried. "Just shut up, you old hag. Your voice is so annoying. I feel my ears bleeding by your vocal torture." Anita sealed her mouth with a duck tape. "You want to know the reason why they call it the golden box?" I looked at a dazzled Chase who eyes were scrunched while examining the locked box.

She glanced up at this. “Yea. Right after closing hour. They are expecting us at the Malabar Gold and Diamonds.” I mentioned the biggest pure carat store in town and I saw the brief flash of surprise in her eyes. “Nothing but the best hmm.” It was not really a question. She should know my taste by now. But just in case she did not understand yet, I nodded. “Nothing but the best.” For my Mate. I added the last part silently. She will soon understand not just what it means to be Christos Fernandez’s wife, but also what it means to be Luna to a powerful wolf pack like mine.

“Come on, man. You’re a Golden Retriever so you should buy those expensive and out of the world jewels.” Kazal halted again. This time, his expression contorted into an annoyed look. He rolled his eyes in exasperation before meeting eyes with Rein. “…Just because I have that ‘Golden’ in Golden Retriever doesn’t mean that I have to buy any expensive things out there. Moreover, I never heard of any rumors about that jewel circulating among the echelons or nobles. If that enchanted jewel exists they should have been in possession among one of our clients already.”

"But inside here, it's not like out there. We have unlimited fields." "How?" I asked, my mouth full of food. "The gold," he said with a knowing smirk. "It enhances everything around it." "I knew it was odd to have so much gold everywhere." "It's just a light coating on the outside of everything—from the gates surrounding our lands to the wooden posts in our crop fields. Every crystal has a unique quality." He held up his blue coffee mug that reflected the light. "Is that the same blue crystal used in your food supply that deformed most of your pack?"

My hair wasn't pinned into a perfect, frozen crown by a team of stylists; it was loose and wild, tangling around my face as the tide came in, bringing with it the scent of deep water. I looked down at the gold band on my finger—the one Silas had given me in the wreckage of the boardroom. It was different from everything else he owned. It didn't have the Vane crest stamped for brand recognition. It didn't have a serial number recorded in the company archives for insurance purposes. It was just gold. It was heavy, warm, and undeniably real. "The pilot says the weather is clearing over the city," a voice said behind me.
