BORN TO BE A LUNA 49.
Aria's POV "They won the trial." I can't help but be happy on this day for a couple of different reasons, one of which being the Crescentius' victory over their accusers. I almost punched Elora earlier because she conveyed the news so suspensefully. I truly believed Mysha had lost the case; thankfully, Elora quickly repudiated what she had said earlier. Otherwise, I would have been devastated. "How did you get that information anyway?" Instead of heading straight to my room, I ended up in the living room, gossiping with Elora. Yet, one thing that puzzled me was how she obtained such info. She didn't respond to my query, instead showing me her phone. The moniker 'GGE' gossip girl era attracted my interest in a specific group chat. So she received the gossip from here? "Creative source of intelligence, no?" She laughed and nodded. After Elora and I talked, I didn't spend much time in the living room. She has work to do with servicing the guests because there is so much to cater t

Nicholas went back to the homestead after sending Aria home. He needed to confront someone from there because of the mess. His mate was hurt because of Arturo's negligence to informed his constituents about his and Aria's arrival. Aside from that, he wants to know how many cases of robbers breaking in and stoning individuals who enter without permission have occurred. His first project for this year was an alarm monitor that transmits an alarm if someone who is not a member of the group enters. Although there was no such scene before, the hurling of stones persisted. “Alpha, you’re back,” Arturo declared. His previous softness had faded, and all that remained was cruelty. Nicholas used to show mercy under Aria's presence, but now he doesn't. He is mindful Natasha wields considerable power in this area and suspects that the girls are aware that Aria is not a thief. It was a sabotage act. Given his mate's complexion, aura, and attractiveness, being mistaken for a thief is already an

Aria's POV "Is this your schedule?" I asked Nicholas curiously, holding the daily record he gave me. He remembered what I told him last time when we went to the homestead. Five days have passed since that event, and my wounds have also healed, owing to Kaia's help. "Yes," he answered. My eyes ran through the handbook that Nicholas handed me and noticed that it contained not only his schedule but also his previous and forthcoming projects. While reading, I glimpsed the homestead project, including the structure where he forced me to carry bricks to help the omega. There are ten projects in all that need to be established, with the remainder already underway. Nicholas must have developed a plan to turn Red Moon into a megacity in the realm. "I'll be gone on Megasus Pack tonight," he explained. "Please look after the Pack while I'm gone." My brow creased. Nicholas didn't want me to accompany him. It's not a big deal, but he should at least ask me, right? Every Alpha are supposed
BORN TO BE A LUNA 52.
Aria's POV My eyes fell so heavy as soon as I opened them, and a godlike face greeted me. Yesterday's event had me chained in my bed. "Nicholas," I whispered faintly. It was barely four in the morning when we decided to sleep. Nicholas was insatiable and wild in bed. He only stopped when I begged him because the middle of my thighs was throbbing like hell from the succeeding round he gave me. "Good morning, Aria," he beamed, kissing my temple. My gaze was drawn to his nude torso, with only a towel covering his impressive member. His hair was dripping wet, making him twice as appealing, and his adonis physique aroused my hormones. Nicholas had just gotten out of the shower, and with his god-like features, he could be every woman's fantasy. I grasp the blanket and wrap it around me before standing up, but then I wince a bit when the pain shoots from my core. Damn! Nicholas instantly slides beside me with a worried look on his face. "Are you okay?" My cheeks reddened as the blanke
BORN TO BE A LUNA 53.
Aria's POV"Which Kairo are you talking about?"Nicholas's eyes shot daggers at me, and the frown on his forehead also became more visible as he grabbed my wrist. There was no hint of idea etched on his face: it was blank and confused."Stop fooling around! I know you know what I'm talking about!" I growled.His jaw clenched, and I could feel his self-control. But I couldn't be wrong. I am infallible that it was Kairo. It must be him. "What the heck are you talking about, Aria?"He won't admit it. 'He obviously didn't know, Aria,' Kaia annoyingly butts in. 'Stop initiating a fight.'Fine! I wouldn't press this matter further. However, I certainly won't let this pass. If Nicholas can hide things from me, then I'll unravel each of them until he has no more secrets to hide. He had to wait for it. I heaved a sigh and met Nicholas's gaze. "Forget what I said...it was actually just an act. I kinda plan to be an actress."It was the most implausible explanation I could think of, yet noth
BORN TO BE A LUNA 54.
Aria's POVMy plan went down the drain when Nicholas came. His judging eyes pierced through me while Elora excused herself. I calmly sipped my coffee, acting as if everything was normal and there was nothing to worry about.For once, I begged fate to be on my side, but it constantly got in the way. Thinking about everything, especially the secrets Nicholas is keeping from me, does not make me feel at ease. I swore to accept everything he could give me, no matter how bad it was. However, I couldn't help but feel how unjust our situation is."What did Elora do here?"I didn't glance at him and kept my gaze set on the horizon. "She brought my coffee."There were no follow-up inquiries, and I sensed Nicholas' leave as the mood lightened. I sighed and distracted myself by playing with my nails. Just the other day, we were okay, and then suddenly, everything changed. It was my fault, alright.This developing passion within me is vile; it has torn me between humbleness and fighting for my ri
BORN TO BE A LUNA 55.
Aria's POV"Please save our parents, Aria. I begged you."It was Mysha's first text message to me in six months. She seems to have no option but to humble herself to save the person she has worked so hard to protect. I was torn. I am not just my parent's daughter but also the Pack's Luna. My choice should be free of bias. It must always be logical. Even though I know Nicholas is only using me, I have accepted the position, and it would be a betrayal to abandon Red Moonians to save my parents, who are the source of their misery. They have suffered as a result of my parent's pride, and they deserve justice."I told you your parents aren't here, unlike what your sister claimed," Nicholas shouts angrily."Mysha won't come here to presume anything," I say gently.I'm familiar with my sister. She is not like me, who acts irrationally most of the time. She must have had a reason for coming here earlier; it cannot have been merely a simple assumption that Nicholas had taken our parents into
BORN TO BE A LUNA 56.
Aria's POVThe next morning, I was awakened by a tremendous boom that had penetrated my chamber. I rubbed my eyes before glancing at the vacant side of the bed. Nicholas had to have risen early. I got up slowly, putting the comforter over my body, and went straight to the balcony to check the commotion.The scene that greeted me threw my system into confusion. The once-organized pack was packed with people, which was not normal. A few familiar faces ran through my eyes, and I couldn't help but gasp in surprise.With my pajamas, I immediately left the room and went straight downstairs. The doors were shut, and a few omega's stood at the threshold like some kind of military blocking the way."What's going on?" I exclaimed, walking straight to Elora.The sense of being idealess burst through my body, followed by a burning perplexity that was now slowly turning into wrath. Even the members of Rojo La Luna were present among the residents of the homestead. Trying to process what had transp

BORN TO BE A LUNA Epilogue
Nicholas I was peering out the window, clutching the cigarette I had just lighted, waiting for an update. I sent Kairo to spy on Crescentius, but the fool was caught, so I despatched Milan to spy. I was in the midst of my thought when the door to my office opened, and the wounded Kairo appeared. Angry, I delivered a powerful punch to his face, causing him to fly against the wall. He groaned in pain before falling to his knees. "You careless fool!" I growled. Kairo coughed up blood before struggling to rise. He was tortured so much because of the number of wounds on his body. Well, Luke does not easily let go of rogues. They kill them after torturing them. So how did Kairo get away? I puffed on my cigarettes, thinking about something. "How did you escape?" "Trek's youngest daughter released me," he admitted. I throw my cigarettes away while hearing Kairo's pathetic report. He was saved by a woman and not just any ordinary she-wolf, for she is the enemy's daughter. Look at how fa

Aria's POVNatasha's rage puts the baby she's carrying in danger. Fortunately, Doctor Green intervened quickly to prevent a possible miscarriage. So, instead of coming in the hospital for a check-up, Natasha ended up being confined. Her pregnancy wasn't quite healthy; a little stress would have stripped the pups she was carrying away."Let her take this medicine on a daily basis; it will help the baby grow healthy inside her," Doctor Green stated as she handed us a pill.She spoke softly, moved smoothly, and was very professional. Earlier, when Natasha attempted to scratch her face and cause havoc in the hospital, she calmly dodged her attack and injected her with a calming antidote.Rejecting her was probably Matthew's biggest regret. She is the epitome of grace and elegance. Not to mention how respectable her profession is. If I were in her shoes, I would never assist the woman my mate prefers over me. Nonetheless, she put her personal life aside and remain professional. She handl

Aria's POVLast night's conversation with Nicholas took us nowhere. He became irritated, so instead of staying outside for a few hours, we returned home earlier than planned. But, to be fair, despite his irritation, he didn't left me there. He's truly improved; perhaps he learned his lesson from the past."Luna Aria, there's a letter for you," Elora said as she handed me an envelope.I accepted it while combing my hair. The texture and fragrance of the envelope felt familiar. Only Crescentius sent letters on ivory paper, and the logo on the front of the envelope proved my claim. When I opened it, there was a small piece of paper stick inside. "M.S." I read the writing at the bottom.After reading the letter's contents, my breath caught in my throat and I had to stop combing my hair. I went back and read what had been said to make sure it wasn't just a delusion, but it wasn't. It was real. Mysha send me a letter. She wished for us to speak.My heart swelled with excitement. I have be

Aria's POVWe returned home as dusk approached. I knew Nicholas had made us stay in the village for a half-day so I could spend time with my new found family. That man frequently works behind my back, not to hurt me, but to make me happy."I wish I'd get to reconcile with, Mysha," I blurted out as we approached the gate.The previous conflict had been resolved. Nicholas and I are also steadily establishing our relationship, and my human family has accepted me. Only my relationship with Mysha remains unresolved. "You'll reconcile sooner, love. Let time heal the wounds of the past or....how about you reach out for her?" he advised as he parked the car.My goal had always been to mend our shattered connection. I want to reach out to her, but every time our previous encounter comes to mind, fear stops me. She wanted me dead. So I'm worried that if I go to Crescentius, I won't make it out alive. Aside from my issue with Mysha, Alpha Luke had also disgusted me. I knew he was rational, but
BORN TO BE A LUNA 78.
Aria's POVI was drifting off into space, recalling what had just transpired. Things had quickly gotten out of hand. I'm not sure how to respond to all of the thoughts racing through my mind. It's commendable that the Elder acted fast and dispatched someone to address the disagreement. They also clarified what transpired in the past and cleared up any confusion. And Mysha was mistaken; our parents duped her into believing their lies, which she did.Our parents' previous attack on Rojo La Luna was laced with jealousy and threat. The reason they claimed Nicholas's parents were hiding in the rogue, even though they weren't."Are you okay?" Nicholas asked, sliding his hand on my stomach, hugging me from behind.I sighed before nodding. The trace of blood from Mysha earlier haunts me with worries. She is pregnant, yet she is willing to jeopardize her health for the sake of vengeance. Mysha is a fool for making that decision. She endangers not just her people, but also herself and the baby
BORN TO BE A LUNA 77.
Aria's POVAngered by the discourse she had with Nicholas, Mysha launched an attack. Our defense line was the first to meet Mysha's army of wolves, followed by the attacker, and they did the same. I looked at the sister I once admired, and I can't seem to find the familiarity in her anymore. She's totally different."Is there no other way to end this war?" I asked Nicholas.I don't want us to get to the point where blood is spilt and there is nothing left in the land because of my and Nicholas' parents, who are the basis of all of this. They're gone, therefore this meaningless fight must come to an end. We'll never know who uttered the truth on both sides because they're all dead. They are no longer present to testify about what occurred in the past. So, why are you still hanging on to that sad phase of life? We should all go on and forget about it. We will never progress if we remain rooted in the past. "If the Elders find out about this, both packs will suffer greatly," Natasha sa
BORN TO BE A LUNA 76.
Aria's POVI was so taken aback by Natasha's words early in the morning that I didn't have time to shower, brush my teeth, or even get dressed. I followed her in my pajamas to the packhouse, where all of the officials were already dressed in war gear. They look like royal armies ready for battle, whilst I am completely unprepared. My form right now was so out of place."How did you know my sister was coming?" I asked Nicholas, who was perched on his seat.Despite the fact that Mysha and I do not get along as siblings. Maybe she thought of me as a stranger by now. Hurting her feels like a second regret that I'll have to live with for the rest of my life. My parents' demise made me realize how important family is. I can't face the idea that something horrible will happen to her."Our Crescentius spy delivered us a message," he explained.He had planted a spy in Crescentius? How could I have missed that? "Why do you have a spy there?"A gust of doubt hustled through my nascent trust in

Aria's POVNicholas' feverish kisses resumed once we entered his car. I was a little sober from the inebriated sensation, but a slight touch from him put me on my knees. I surrendered myself to him, ignoring my rationality. I couldn't stand the heat. Nicholas' kisses literally steal my sanity."You taste like honey, my sweet," he said in my ear as his hand began to make advances on my body.Our movement is restricted, though, due to the limited space within Nicholas's automobile. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine making out inside a car. It made me feel both scared and excited. Fear of being caught. Thrill at the prospect of new experiences."Nicholas, can't we be seen here?" I told him. He planted soft kisses on my neck. "It's tinted, baby. Don't worry." I know it's tinted, but we're in the werewolf realm. Their vision is more developed than that of humans, and they could presumably see what's within even if it was tinted. Nicholas must have forgotten it because he was so co

Aria's POVThe meeting was cut short due to Luna Beatrice's temper tantrums. Nicholas can't forced Alpha Dony to return so that they can continue what they're talking about."Should we go see the cityscape?" he inquired.We were heading back to Red Moon around five o'clock. I'm not sure what Nicholas' plan is, but he mentioned the cityscape. Perhaps because it's almost night and the light there is excellent."It all depends on you; what are your plans?"I'm game for anything he wanted to do. Aside from the fact that we only go out from the pack on rare occasions, this could be a nice time to decompress."Let's unwind there for awhile," he said.True enough, we went directly to the city and reserved a table at one of the city's tallest restaurants. We are presently on the rooftop, from which we can overlook the entire neighborhood. This place reminds me of Antohollan; I've never been there at night, but I imagine it looks exactly like this at night. The magnificent streetlight embelli
