Chapter: CHAPTER 235CHAPTER 235Serene “Diego is…is everything OK?” I wondered what had happened to have him cry like that."Why Serene...why?" he asked in a hurtful tone as I struggled to understand what was going on."I…I do not comprehend what you are saying, Diego. Is everything okay?” I asked, looking at him confused.“No!” He went down on one knee and said, "Nothing is fine unless you accept my proposal.""Diego,” I whispered."Serene Brights, will you marry me and make me the happiest man in the world?" he begged, tears streaming down his cheeks and his lips shivering.“Ye…yes I will…I will marry you," I murmured, helping him get up as we hugged.“Woo!" I heard Grace and Miguel.So they were pretending to be asleep.(Two days later)I stood in the center of the stairs, a veil enveloping my head like a breath of silk.My wedding gown was beautiful as dew, exquisite and unbending, just like I had weathered all storms.My babies clutching to the lace sleeves and chatting fast.

Chapter: CHAPTER 234CHAPTER 234Serene Two weeks later Our home was filled with peace, and everyone had the smiles we had all been waiting for. The girls were preparing for their naming ceremony.The entire house was filled with balloons and flowers. Grace and Rina were racing up and down making sure nothing went wrong since this was a ceremony they did not want to ruin at any cost.Miguel exclaimed, "The priest is here!" and everyone moved to greet him."Be blessed, my kid," he whispered, resting his hand on top of Miguel and offering him a sweet.“Mommy, can I give the girls some?" Miguel asked about breaking the sweet."Oh no, baby, you'll give them plenty when they grow," I smiled.We went to sit around the fire as the priest started the ritual. He sprinkled olive oil on their foreheads and smiled at them."Great riches and power are within their destiny, and joy will always be a part of it, but dark times will come," he warned, causing my heart to skip a beat before he added, "But they are strong

Chapter: CHAPTER 233CHAPTER 233Serene I awoke to the sound of a little scream coming from one of the cradles and rushed out of bed, only to find Diego already cradling the baby who had awoken.“Hey that was fast," I smiled."I know, madam, you can sleep," he said, carefully turning her from side to side."No, maybe I need to feed her," I said, preparing to take her from him when she began sobbing."I think she wants to remain with Daddy," Diego murmured, and I smiled, wondering how she had already taken sides.I am not sure how I fell asleep, but I woke up every time a small cry sounded from the crib. The next morning, we all prepared to travel to New York. "Mommy, I hope you will snap plenty of pictures of my sisters when we get on the plane," Miguel stated as we climbed into the Van."Yes, my darling," I said as I brushed his curly hair.We arrived at the runway and boarded the plane. "Goodness, I can not wait to get to New York," George said."Me neither," Rina murmured, going to rest on his shoulde

Chapter: CHAPTER 232CHAPTER 232Diego "In other news, millionaire Diego Myers has been cleared of all charges following his detention in London, and some individuals have lately posted touching images of him and the Queen leaving a hospital after his release. Could he be the father of the two angels we saw?” The reporter remarked this as she zoomed in on a shot of Serene and me strolling with the girls."Gosh, these folks never miss an opportunity to create a trend," Serene commented, taking a seat next to me, but I had to ask if she needed anything since the prospect of her fighting an entire nuclear war alone terrified me.“No, I'm OK. You're acting strange lately, are you OK?” she asked."Yes, but I have been thinking about something, and you do not have to agree if you are not ready," I answered when she asked for my opinion."After everything you have been through, I was thinking about you going to therapy." You have been through a lot. I just want you to be OK.”“OK, I'll. Anything else?" She aske

Chapter: CHAPTER 231CHAPTER 231Serene It was a Saturday morning, and I awoke with the sensation that something was missing. I am not sure what it is, but I know a part of me is not present. "Good morning," Diego said, strolling in with flowers in his hands."Hello, where have you slept?" Rina had informed me he had not gone home, so I inquired."Umm, somewhere safe. I can not go home until I know it is safe for everyone, but for now, we need to get your belongings together and go," he stated."Finally, they are going to meet their brother and grandmother," I grinned.I watched Diego prepare my bags as I calmed the girls down after they began weeping."Ms. Brights, you appear to be in for a lot of fun," observed the doctor as he strolled in."Definitely, but I will be around, so it will be fantastic," Diego said, as the doctor nodded and walked away.Pete walked in and assisted Diego with our belongings, as I made my way to the car behind them. I am not sure why they had to hire so many guards, but Dieg

How dare you do this to me in my own home?" Sofia replied."You are stupid for not double-checking the property paperwork. This is a house Serene bought for me, but I asked her to give it to you because I knew I would need it on a day like today, so do not push it or I will kick your ass out right now," Charlotte said, flinging Sofia to the floor.Max, Sandra, and I looked at each other in sh

Chapter: CHAPTER 125CHAPTER 125Ariella Annie left and I was alone. I neatly packed my room and was about to go take a shower when I heard a knock on my door. I didn't have to ask who it was or anything. I knew it was him— Luis.“Come in," I said before turning around.“Are you free?" he asked, trying to sound neutral but I could feel the pain in his tone.“Yeah. Do you want to talk about something?" I asked."I'm sorry…I'm sorry for keeping you in the dark Ariella. I thought pretending to love Emily would make her lead me to Neil but it didn't work,” he said when I lifted my brows."Pretending? Luis, you chose her child over mine,” I said."Yes, I did, but the truth is now out, and I don't want to keep you in the dark anymore. I meant it when I said that I loved you, Ariella,” he started, and I could feel myself getting nervous.“Luis, please, you're not fine. Try getting some rest," I suggested, trying to stop him from continuing, but he didn't want to.“I've to say this Ariella. I know I've been a fo

It was as if she were looking at someone who was rotting or something, but I wasn't in the mood for her drama. I'd already made it clear that I wasn't going to be nice if she tried me. “Well, look at the runaway girl, I knew you couldn't live without Luis' wealth, Ariella. You indeed are just the gold digger I thought you were," she smiled, probably expecting that to hurt me but I was mentally prepared. “I actually don't mind digging for gold, especially when it's from my husband's pocket. But wait aren't you the one carrying a married man's child?" I asked when embarrassment covered her entire face. “Don't push it Ariella you're nothing compared to me OK I'll—”"Shhhh Emily. I don't have enough joules to waste on an attention-seeking bitch like you. Stay the hell away from my room because I'm nothing like you OK,” I said before pointing to the door.

It was as if something more important than tonight's meeting was taking up his time. I asked my man to contact him but his phone wasn't going through. “I think Neil is here," Monica rushed to tell me before I made my way outside to welcome him.Gosh, he really seemed like the devil himself. I could tell that I had a lot to learn. Darkness covered the entire atmosphere, and I could tell Lucia and Monica were both uncomfortable, just like me.“Lucia, you seemed like someone with all the potential to get back into Luis's life,” Neil said when I looked at her in shock. "You two know each other?” I asked, looking confused. “Yes and her return was no coincidence. I wanted her back into Luis's life so I could destroy him from the inside but she failed so badly," Neil replied, his voice deep yet powerful.“And you didn't bother to tell me?" I looked at Lucia.“Some things aren't meant to b

The moment I heard Ariella's voice from that backseat, it started beating fast, and I could feel myself wanting to pull her into a hug.When the cafe closed, I was so upset because Ariella didn't show up, but after finding her in my car, I was shocked. I had so many questions to ask but the safety of our children was a priority.We drove to a different location and had a little confrontation before I noticed a red mark on the window. My heart felt out of place as I asked Ariella to bend her head.Somebody was about to shoot at us. I quickly drove away. There's no way I was going to let Ariella go back to her apartment. She was stubborn about going back to the mansion but we had to do all that for the children's safety.When I found her in Hope's room I just couldn't help but imagine what it would have been like if she had taken my little girl with her— Maybe she would have been alive.Ariel

Chapter: CHAPTER 121CHAPTER 121Ariella We got to the mansion and I was about to jump out of the car when Luis asked me to wait. He walked to my side of the car and opened the door. I wasn't happy at all. This was a place I wanted to be far away from but somehow I keep bouncing back.“I'll meet you inside," he said, going to talk to his men.I looked at the gate that was closed and then shook my head before going into the mansion. I had slippers on so my steps weren't that loud.“I've been telling you to stop the act and get out of here already," I heard someone whisper from the living room.“I know but one of us needs to stay. You know the mission is close to being finished. Now all we need to do is get rid of Emma," I heard Kendy responding.I knew her voice well enough to recognize it. I moved a little closer just to see who she was talking to when Emily was about to walk out, but froze looking at me.“You?" she said, looking at Kend, who was wondering whom she was talking to before coming to take

I was certain that I would be far from Luis and all the drama in Atlanta but guilt just couldn't let me wait for the plane to take off.I changed my mind and got off before it could take off. Since Luis was going to look for me I didn't want to be in contact with Emma.But after what happened to Hope I just didn't know how to react anymore. That child was the most beautiful thing that ever happened to me in that mansion. Even though Luis and I weren't her biological parents, the chemistry she made us build was more than that of family.I just don't know why one would target an innocent child to get back at someone. I knew Neil was behind everything. That day, after I left the airport, I was in a cab with one of his men. Since I was in the back seat with a veil on, he didn't recognize me, so he kept telling someone over the phone about my and Luis' divorce.The person on the other end was telling him how badly Neil wanted me take

MOONBOUND: LOVE BEYOND THE BOND
"Aria please give our love a chance?" he begged.
Aria Knight was destined to be Luna—beloved mate to Alpha Claus Sawyer, heir to the Nightshade Pack, and the only wolf she ever loved. Their bond was undeniable, written in stars and sealed in childhood promises. But fate, as cruel as it is cosmic, twists with ambition.
At the annual pack gathering, Aria arrives expecting a proposal… only to witness Claus publicly announce his engagement to Camila Greer of the powerful Black Moon Pack. A political alliance. A betrayal masked in smiles. A rejection so devastating it severs not just hearts—but souls.
In a moment of heartbreak and rage, Aria invokes forbidden Luna magic to cut their bond—a soul-rending act that awakens a buried evil: Eryx, the ancient entity that feeds on broken mates. Her cry shatters the moonlight, and the Council brands her rogue. Her pleas go unheard. Her legacy erased.
Alone, hunted, and wounded, Aria collapses near death—only to be saved by Catherine, a sharp-tongued exiled witch. Catherine leads her to Duskrend, a cursed pack led by the cold and brooding Alpha Zion Hurricane. Zion lets her stay, but something in her scent unnerves him… and awakens his wolf.
As Camila and the corrupt Council plot Aria’s destruction, and the shadows of Eryx grow stronger, Aria discovers a new purpose: protect the innocent, master her magic, and heal the curse threatening the wolves of Duskrend.
But with war looming, and Zion’s fate now entangled in hers, Aria must decide—will she remain a broken Luna, or rise as a flame-touched warrior, ready to burn the world for those she loves?
She was betrayed by her fated mate.
Now she is the spark of rebellion.
And the moon will never shine the same again.

Chapter: CHAPTER 0211CHAPTER 211Zion My heart was not in place after Bruno passed out. I haven't seen him that weak in days. At first, I thought it was stress, but when the apprentice told us that he had been charmed, I couldn't help but wonder how someone would try that on Bruno. Not that he lacks anything but he had just lost his second mate.“You need to stay here," the apprentice said to Bruno and then asked if I wanted to wait there, but I couldn't, so I promised to send someone.I made my way back to the car, which was parked a few minutes away, because Catherine used to say the sound of its engine tempered with the aquatic life and spirits close to her cave.I jumped in and then drove back to the Palace. The twins rushed to hug me before asking where Bruno was and I had to lie. They were children so I couldn't risk worrying about them. We all went to the living room where Nia and Aria were taking the boys to bed. “Is everything OK?" Shakira asked before taking a seat on the sofa. The moment th

What are you doing here?" I asked before she smiled and then walked inside closing the door.“I'm actually on my way out. Would you like me to get you something," I asked when she used force to push me on the Alpha's chair.“I wanted this," she bent to whisper in my ear before attempting to sit on my thighs when Nia walked in.“Nia," I whispered quickly jumping to my feet while Shakira looked down in shame.“I'm sorry please forgive—”"No we're sorry. I need you to keep this between us,” I said to Nia before she went away.“She wouldn't do a thing. We should have continued," Shakir

I don't know what you're talking about, please just leave me alone,” she replied.Before Derrick could say anything else Shakira ran outside. I was going to follow her but Bruno held me back.“I think we should give her some time," he said, and I agreed and then asked the maids to show Derrick his room.Zion came to kiss me and then headed out with Bruno. I was just with Nia, the twins, Derrick, and Shakia, who was being dramatic.After some minutes, Shakira made her way to the living room; this time her face was serious.

I couldn't sleep while the quadruplets were still awake, so I sat on the chair I had placed next to the cradle.I don't know why my babies were so happy. It's like they knew mommy was upset so they took it upon themselves to cheer me on.“I can look after them babe. Please rest," Zion said but I just couldn't even if I wanted to.I knew that I shouldn't have followed him but I had to. I wanted to know what that abusive beast wanted. Just a few minutes after Zion left I followed him and hid until Derrick came.I wish I had listened to White when she asked me not to go, but being stubborn got the best of me, and I now I heard things I wasn't supposed to know.Back in Nightshade we all knew about Shakira's oak tree encounter because she told us about

Aria was definitely the one who asked him to follow.“Sorry," I heard a tired voice behind my back when I turned around and saw Derrick who was breathing heavily.It was as if he had been running from Nightshade. “I'm not here to wait. What do you want?" I responded looking like I didn't care.“I need your help Zion. I have never touched that woman. She's busy accusing me of all that," Derrick started.“Is this a joke or something? A few days ago you wanted to take that same woman home and now you want to be helped from her," I said looking at him with disgust.“I know that's why I called you here. Look, Shakira has been hurting herself badly for the past 2 months. I've tried to stop her, but she kept calling me names and then mentioned something about the shares our parents promised to give me,” Derrick said, and I wondered how he could have ment

I don't think anyone would tell somebody they despise any of that.The door opened, and Aria walked in with Nicholas, who was asleep in his arms. She smiled at us and then placed him in the cradle before coming to hold my arm.“What are you two talking about?" she asked, looking at Shakira and then me.“It's nothing. We were just discussing howDerrick's shares could benefit me as his wife,” Shakira replied while Aria looked at me with awe."I thought those had been given to charity?” Aria asked while Shakira pulled out her eyes."How's that even possible?
