Halo: The Mona Lisa Novels & Stories

Monalisa’s brows lifted in wonder as she saw so many people gathered in the place she knew as the arena. She did not know that Hamilton had so many people living in viper city and all under his control. She could tell just by looking, those who are slaves and those who are vampires like him. “There are so many vampires here,” she said inwardly, turning her gaze around the arena and slowly her gaze rested on Doctor Clara who was trying to get her attention with her gaze as well.

Ferna’s brows furrowed, and I felt my stomach twist. A halo? What was she talking about? Elsie blinked, her smile faded as she noticed our stares. “What?” she asked, shifting uncomfortably on the floor. “Why are you both looking at me like that?” Ferna leaned forward. “Wait. What did you just say?” Elsie frowned. “About the moon goddess having humor?” “No,” I said carefully. “About the halo.” Elsie tilted her head. “What about it?” “You… see one?” I asked.

Maya is scared, but she has grown so used to hiding every bit of emotion that the last thing on her mind is letting me through the walls she has erected. Walls that I shouldn't even be thinking about breaking down. As her hand grazed the painting of a half-naked woman bathing under the sun, I remember her, standing naked by the window, her towel in a pool at her feet. She has the body of a goddess, the setting sun on her petite curves making her look even more ethereal. I try to bury the image along with the rest of my dark memories, but it just keeps resurfacing. Swallowing instinctively, I take another sip of my brandy.

Chapter Sixty Nine: A Smile That Wasn’t Mine Selene’s POV The hall was bright. Too bright. Candles floated in the air, and golden cloth hung like ribbons from the high ceiling. People clapped and raised their glasses, smiling at us — at me. But I couldn’t smile back, not really. I could only pretend. And I did. Over and over again. I stood beside Evric, dressed in silver and red, the traditional colors of a Luna. My hands rested on my growing belly, and every time I looked down, my heart squeezed so hard I thought it would shatter.

Antonio shivered, Davina crumpled to the ground, the last surviving Twilight warrior dropped dead with his heart ripped out. The Silvermoon pack stood victorious. Raphaela bounded in, transforming to human form immediately. Lorenzo smiled, his blind eyes not seeing her. It was all over. He collapsed.

The head organizer widened his eyes, looking at Haya when she was trying to understand the situation. "Supplement?", Haya exclaimed. A lady was there with the organizer. She picked the sachet up and examined it. Haya was still clueless about what was happening. She could just realize that something would go terribly wrong. "It's illegal immunity booster", the lady gritted her teeth as Haya's jaw dropped. "You took this?" "It's not mine", Haya blurted out, looking at the girl who bumped into her. "She bumped with me" "Mine?", the girl clamoured. "What will I do with immunity booster pills? I'm not even a player, nor a dancer"

Chapter 8 “They will definitely like you, in fact, love you.” he stated, looking back at her. “What makes you so certain?” “Because you are their Luna!” he replies. “Their,” Sheila whispers, slightly looking away from him. “Who are they?” she anxiously asked. “We are close already,” he stated. “When we get there, you will know.” “Okay,” she nods. Without knowing what the term Luna entails. The term is even strange in her mouth as she tries to pronounce it.

The road was surprisingly free. “Not bad? Don’t sell yourself short Brown. You were literally drooling over the Lycaon Ascension." “Is that what he calls it?” “That’s what Jeff calls it. Tony says he particularly asked for that piece with every single detail as it is in the mural.” “Who’s Tony?” “My boyfriend.” Brown’s eyes immediately peeled away from the road and immediately latched themselves onto her face. Did he just see her swallow? “Boyfriend?” “Yes. Boyfriend.”

I said. “I appreciate Luca.” She said, there was something in her voice that said a lot about how desperate she was. Halo and I watched as Nico left with her. Halo turned to me, “Are you for real? You want me to be in charge of that lady who could end up being a snake?” I tapped him gently on his shoulder. “You are way tougher than anyone I've ever met. You can deal with a mere hacker. I trust you.” with that I grinned at halo before walking back into the mansion.

Hector sent for Luna Emelda. She came almost immediately when the call got to her by the guards. “You sent for me, son.” “Yes mother, I met Naradya yesterday and she let me in on a secret that can save the Halo clan from the recent catastrophes and restore us back to our former glory.” Luna Emelda, very excited, let out a joyful ear-piercing scream. “Yesss … I knew it, this can't be the end of the mighty Halo clan. There's got to be a solution somewhere and now it has been confirmed by the seer.”
