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

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

"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.

I got you this," she added, wrapping a bright bracelet around Ariella's hand."Wow, this is lovely, sweet. Where did you acquire it?" Ariella responded by lowering her body to meet Hope's height.“From a secret place," Hope responded."Ladies, please, I am feeling jealous," I said, hoping to get their attention."Daddy, please save us the trouble; I need to take Mommy away," Hope answered."OK, I guess I'll get David to freeze all your accounts, madam,” I smiled.“Now, you dare not, if you want your David to survive," Hope whispered, pulling Ariella away as I trailed them behind like a guard.“Daddy please hurry," Hope said while I was just lost looking at Ariella's h

I am surprised she had the confidence to confront Luis after what she had done to him because I wouldn't.I'm surprised he gave her over to the police, which is strange because death is all he would have offered her. I surely am missing something.My issue, however, is that she nearly murdered Ariella, which makes me want to blow her brains out in those jail cells. I murdered that woman and wouldn't watch her be killed in the same manner, especially now that she is bonding with me."I followed you to the graveyard the other day," Monica remarked, giving me my coffee.“What?" I responded."I simply wanted to make sure you were okay, but…I ended up seeing how calm you were around her —Ariella,” Monica said, looking at me with teary eyes."Monica, please, I do not think this i

To my amazement, they were bickering, and Luis was defending me like the male protagonist in a romantic film. Before Luis could come out, I dashed back to my room and locked myself from the inside. I had shivers simply thinking about how Luis was protecting me. It's like I was about to fly. Did I mean so much to him?I told myself to calm down and went to bed to take a nap, but I could not fall asleep.

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.

I told Thea before requesting the guards to take her batches.“No please Alpha it was a mistake I—" I just gave her a fierce look before making my way upstairs to check on Aria. I could not even go freshen up without checking to see whether she was okay. I was so duped by Thea that I did not realize she was trying to be kind to Aria. I should have warned Aria. Following the deaths of her parents, Thea despised familial relationships more than anybody else in the pack. I believed Aria had melted that cold, and they appeared to be pleased."Aria," I murmured after knocking on her door, but no response came."I am OK; just leave me alone," she said in a voice that was still weeping."I am sorry; I could have done better," I said, hoping she would open the door, but there was no reaction."Just break it immediately; our mate needs us," Pine suggested, but I could not listen at the time.I returned to my room, had a shower, and dressed up befor

Bruno asked with worry."Yes, I am only dizzy," he said, opening his blue-lit eyes.“I'm sorry Alpha I—”"Are you coming with us?” he cut me off."No, I can't; I am better off here, Alpha," I protested, but he merely shook his head and stood up when the ladies handed him water."I need you to realize that I am not going anywhere until it is with you.""You are an Alpha, and I am simply a rogue Alpha. Please leave.""Look here Aria I do not care if you burn me alive or use your abilities to chop off my head; just know that the minute I let you remain, you were a part of my pack, and after everything you have done for us, I can not let you go," he continued, and White blushed.“Yo

Let me leave instead; it is I that they want," I added, my tone hurtful."No, my Queen, please do not leave," she cried, gripping my hand.I attempted to hold back my emotions before opening the door to go outdoors. I knew they were watching me."I am here, OK. You do not have to kill the dwarfs; you want me," I murmured, taking a big breath."My Queen," the small woman said in a cracking tone."It is going to be OK," I said, turning to face them as a massive black-furred wolf with streaks of ash gray golden eyes emerged from behind the shrubbery.This was unlike anything I had ever seen, and I sensed a connection between us."It's him," White exclaimed

I have been searching all the corners of this pack for the path the mystery automobile would have traveled to take Aria away, but I could not find anything of her smell.It was approaching evening, and a day without Aria caused my wolf to stop talking to me. None of the food the maids had brought resembled anything Aria would cook. I could not even detect the distinct flavor in Aria's dish.I sat on my golden stool in the yard, seeking Aria's aroma while a cold breeze blew.I recalled how she fell into my arms after healing my wound with her powers.“All this wouldn't have happened if you just listened to me!"

I could recognize Kael from any angle even when I'm in a deep sleep. My pulse started racing as I realized he was driving me to Nightshade. My heart began beating as I realized he was driving me to Nightshade."There is no time to consider jumping out!" White said, and I was afraid at first since the automobile was going so fast.“Aria there's no time jump!"
