Lucas sped through the streets of bustling Los Angeles in his sports car, ignoring the honks and curses from other drivers as he raced to his destination. He had to be quick to get where he needed to be.

Vincentius was a sensitive topic for Lucas. After Carlos informed him that something was wrong with Vincentius, he didn't hesitate to rush over. Carlos had told him that the orphanage where his childhood friend resided was facing trouble. Vincentius was the name of that orphanage, where both his little childhood friend and other companions lived.

Lucas brought his luxury car to a stop right outside a small hospital on the outskirts of Los Angeles. He stepped out of the car and immediately hurried inside, with Carlos following closely behind him. They navigated through the hospital's relatively quiet and spacious corridors.

"Here, sir," Carlos said, causing Lucas to halt and then look through a window. Lucas took a deep breath before he reached for the doorknob.

    "So, do you like fairy tales?" Luna asked, standing in front of the room. She was addressing the children who were sitting quietly, holding the balloons and toys she had brought earlier. Luna turned around to face the whiteboard behind her, grabbed a marker, and wrote the words "fairy tale." Then, she turned her attention back to the kids who were still silent."What fairy tales do you know?" Luna asked again.Click, click, click.Several camera flashes continued to illuminate her, as Alicia had mentioned that there would be reporters covering her activity with the children at the hospital. Alicia approached Luna and whispered to her."You're interacting with kids, Luna, not playing the role of a lecturer demanding a thesis from your students. You're scaring the kids. At least put on your friendly smile," Alicia whispered, causing Luna to glance at the children in front of her, who were sitting quietly."I told you, I'm not good at dealing with them," Luna whispered back."You just ne

    Luna and Lucas immediately turned towards the source of the sound."What are you doing here?" Lucas asked with his cold tone."Come on, dude, I just missed you. Don't you miss me?" he asked while walking closer to Lucas and Luna."Aren't you going to introduce your handsome cousin?" he asked again after reaching them. Lucas gazed briefly at Luna, who was also looking at him, as if asking who the man in front of them was."He's Travis, my distant cousin," Lucas said, understanding Luna's gaze."Nice to meet you, Miss ____," Travis said, hanging his words while extending his hand, waiting for Luna to respond."Luna Estrada," Luna answered, but without shaking Travis's hand. Rather than being offended, Travis chuckled and withdrew his hand."Hah, the rumors outside are indeed true. You two match," Travis said, making Luna give him a sharp look."Oh, sorry, not in a bad way, but in a good way. You match because both of you are handsome and beautiful, that's what I meant," Travis said, sti

    Luna blinked as the sunlight streamed in through the window."Lili, I'm thirsty, get me something to drink!" Luna exclaimed with her hoarse wake-up voice, her eyes still half-closed. She waited for someone to bring her a drink, but after a while, she only heard silence."Lili, come on, I'm thirsty!" Luna called again, but once more, there was only silence. With a lazy feeling, she slowly opened her heavy eyelids.The bright light pierced her vision as Luna blinked a few times to adjust. She then surveyed the spacious and magnificent room she now occupied."Where am I?" Luna muttered, trying to recall what had happened to her the previous night."Oh God, no!!" Luna exclaimed, her face turning red as she hid it behind her pillow, remembering what had occurred the night before.Slowly, Luna lifted her face, memories of her and Lucas from the previous night causing her heart to race."My goodness, my heart... what's wrong with my heart?" Luna muttered while clutching her chest tightly.Lu

    Luna entered the Forbes office with Alicia following behind her. "Our spot is on the seventh floor," Alicia informed her."Find out where Albert is," Luna commanded, causing Alicia to stop and look at her."Luna, can we just finish our work first before looking for Albert?" Alicia tried to persuade her."I'll do my job, and you do yours. Deal?" Luna bargained, stepping into the open elevator that Alicia held for her."Luna, I'm not sure if Albert is really here or not. Can we focus on our work for now? I promise I'll find out about him later," Alicia tried to reason, hoping Luna would understand.Luna turned around to face Alicia. "It's your fault for telling me about Albert's presence in the first place," Luna retorted."Well, I regret it now," Alicia replied.*Ding.*The elevator doors opened, and they both walked out, heading towards the photoshoot location."Good afternoon, Miss Estrada. How are you?" one of the Forbes magazine directors greeted them."Fine," Luna replied curtly,

    "I don't want," Luna rejected once again."Come on, it's just a simple needle. It won't hurt," Lucas tried to persuade Luna, who gave him an annoyed look."For me, it's not just a needle, Lucas," Luna stated.They had been arguing about this issue for a while now, and the staff and a few others behind them had been observing their small argument."You can close your eyes," Lucas suggested."No, I don't want to," Luna declined again."Don't you have any crazier ideas besides drawing my blood for a wedding ring?" Luna expressed her frustration, finding Lucas's idea to be outrageous.As part of their previous plan, they were currently designing their wedding rings. Luna and Lucas had come to a renowned jewelry store in Los Angeles. Luna had initially thought this would be a quick process, just choosing a ring she liked and being done with it.However, unexpectedly, the young billionaire had an unconventional idea that Luna had never even considered before. Lucas suggested incorporating b

    Luna continued to gaze out of the window, her mind wandering far away, leaving Alicia and Lili, who happened to be with her today, looking at her friend and boss in puzzlement."Did something happen yesterday?" Lili asked Alicia."I don't know. Yesterday, she went out with her fiancé," Alicia whispered back while looking at Luna, who remained unfazed."Did they have a fight?" Lili inquired, and Alicia just shrugged indicating that she didn't know."I think something definitely happened. She's been quieter since yesterday," Lili continued. Lili looked at Luna, who was still focused on the view. Lili was Luna's assistant and lived with her in her penthouse. Since Luna's return yesterday, she seemed more reserved and spent more time in her room, which was unusual for Luna as Lili knew."Cia!" Luna's voice broke the silence, causing the two who were discussing her to fall quiet."Yes, Luna?""Do you know something about Lucas?" Luna asked, making her two friends fall silent and exchange g

    Lucas immediately answered the ringing phone while occasionally focusing on the road ahead."Yes," Lucas replied."I'm sorry, sir. There are many paparazzi waiting for you and madam at the Viceroy Boutique," Carlos said. Before heading to the boutique for their wedding dress fitting, Lucas instructed Carlos to go ahead first because Luna insisted on driving with him. Lucas glanced briefly at Luna, who was also looking in his direction."Deal with them and secure the area!" Lucas ordered."I'm sorry, sir, we can only clear a few hundred meters from the location, there are too many of them," Carlos said."Too many?" Lucas murmured. "Right, it seems like they were intentionally called by someone," Carlos explained."Very well, then handle them properly," Lucas ordered before ending the call. He looked at Luna, who was focused on the road ahead."So, you deliberately called them?" Lucas asked, making Luna turn towards him."Who?" Luna asked, her face showing confusion about Lucas's questi

    Luna gazed at herself in front of the large mirror that was the same height as her, allowing her to see her entire body in its reflection. The long white gown she had designed herself finally clung to her body perfectly, looking both fitting and beautiful. The dress had a simple design, yet it exuded an air of luxury when worn by Luna Estrada.A necklace with a pendant resembling the wings of a fairy was wrapped around her neck, adding to her overall beauty. A tiara, not too extravagant but fittingly placed on top of her head with small diamonds at its center, made Luna look like a queen.Her cheeks were flushed pink, whether due to the application of blush or her slightly racing heart, Luna wasn't sure. Even though she couldn't guarantee that this marriage would end happily, she was determined to go through with it. Whether it would be a joyous ending or not, Luna would leave it to fate. After all, she had made her decision. She was complying with her grandfather's undeniable wish, w

    Slowly, Luna begins to open her eyes and surveys the room she's in. She feels something tightly holding onto her hand, and as she looks down, she sees Lucas, who's asleep while clutching her hand. Luna reaches her other hand to gently stroke Lucas's hair, rousing him from his sleep."Did I wake you up?" Luna asks, causing Lucas to blink his eyes a few times."Are you awake? How do you feel? Is anything hurting?" Lucas inquires, his worried expression reflecting in his eyes."Am I okay?" Luna replies with a faint smile on her lips. They fall into a brief silence, just gazing at each other, before Lucas finally finds his voice again. He extends his hand to tenderly caress Luna's cheek."I'm sorry I couldn't protect you and our baby," Lucas says, causing Luna to furrow her brows."What do you mean you couldn't protect our baby? Did something bad happen to our baby?" Luna questions, concern evident in her voice."I almost let us lose our baby," Lucas says, his head hanging in regret and a

    Luna screams as Travis attempts to remove the knife lodged in her shoulder. He glares at Luna with a murderous intent, gripping the blood-smeared knife. Finally summoning her courage, Luna manages to stab Travis's shoulder using a knife she had hidden under the pillow. As Luna suspected, Travis hadn't realized she had hidden two knives earlier as a precaution. Taking advantage of Travis's momentary lapse due to exhaustion from their previous activities, Luna strikes back.Luna finally manages to wound Travis's body, even though her strike misses its intended mark on Travis's chest and ends up hitting his shoulder. Despite this, the wound is deep enough to make Travis grimace in pain, blood quickly staining his chest. What proves lucky for Luna is that Travis had forgotten to lock the door to the room Luna occupied.This oversight allows Luna to flee down a flight of stairs, leading her to realize that the room she was in was at the very top of the building.

    Lucas, Arka, and Leo are starting to look anxious after flying for hours, yet they haven't found the island where Luna is hidden."Have you checked the island properly?" Lucas asks, causing Leo, who has been focused on a flat object in front of him, to mutter."I don't want us to end up on the wrong island this time," Lucas says again, earning an annoyed look from Leo."Why, do you think finding that secluded island is easy? I might be able to track Luna's whereabouts through her phone network, but look, there are numerous islands scattered across the entire ocean. I don't know which one is where Luna is. Besides, I can't currently trace the phone's signal," Leo explains, making Lucas frustrated. Earlier, they had landed their helicopter on two islands, only to realize they were wrong. This time, Lucas hopes they're on the right one."Do you think that island looks suspicious?" Arka says, gazing at the island below. Lucas also looks down and sees a single building on the island, which

    Travis started to bring his face closer, starting from behind Luna's ear where she was particularly sensitive. His tongue danced around her neck, gently grazing it, even as Luna continued to squirm and curse at him. Travis paid no attention to her protests, following his heart's desires even in the face of Luna's resistance.Travis was determined to have Luna, and he intended to do it with tenderness and affection. He believed that Luna would eventually give in to him, even though he was met with rejection at the moment. Luna clenched her fists tightly as Travis touched her so softly. It was far from what she had expected; she thought Travis would be rough and filled with anger, especially after she compared him to Lucas.However, now Travis was touching every inch of her body with a sense of emotion that made Luna have to bite her lip hard to suppress any moans."Even though you've rejected me, I will provide you with a beautiful first night experience that you will never forget," Tr

    Luna slowly opened her eyes, sensing someone tightly embracing her, sound asleep. She felt the rhythmic breath on her neck, and as she turned her face slowly, she saw Travis's closed eyes. Luna began to move her palms cautiously in front of Travis's face. When she was sure that Travis was deeply asleep, she attempted to lift Travis's arm that was wrapped tightly around her waist.However, just as she managed to lift his arm a few inches, Travis's body tightened against hers again, causing Luna to hold her breath and close her eyes once more. She was afraid that Travis might wake up as she was about to put her plan into action. Luna waited for a few moments, ensuring Travis was sound asleep before attempting to pull his arm away from her waist once more. She succeeded this time. Travis seemed to be deeply lost in his dreams. Slowly, Luna began to lower her leg off the bed and made her way to a nearby cupboard, retrieving a hidden knife.Returning to the bed, Luna held the knife with tr

    Luna takes a step back, her heart racing, as she faces Travis's intense gaze, holding a phone in his hand."Quickly tell me where you got this phone from," Travis asks in a cold voice, making Luna wary since he could potentially harm her and her unborn child, even though she manipulated the pregnancy test results she gave him earlier."I just found it in the wardrobe," Luna replies, her voice shaking, as Travis then hurls the phone against the wall behind her, shattering it into pieces. Luna's eyes widen in disbelief. Then, Travis walks briskly towards her, grabbing her shoulder with a tight grip."Tell me quickly, who gave you this phone?" Travis demands, his grip intense. Luna closes her eyes tightly, not expecting Travis to become this aggressive. She can't tell him that she stole the phone from Priscilla, as she doesn't want Travis to punish the servant who indirectly helped her. Priscilla had informed Luna that she was on a remote island in the middle of the sea.Luna is taken ab

    Lucas and Arka forcefully enter a lavish house after Lucas's men incapacitate the guards. Bursting into a room, they startle the occupant who stands up from their seat."What are you doing here?" the person asks, visibly surprised."Tell me where Luna is," Lucas demands, gripping Leo's clothes tightly."What do you mean? Why are you looking for Luna here?" Leo asks, trying to free himself from Lucas's grip and attempting to choke Arka. Arka senses Lucas's emotions and moves closer, trying to restrain him."Don't you want to finish this brat off in our current situation?" Arka says, causing Lucas to finally release his grip on Leo's clothes. He then pushes Leo forcefully, causing him to fall onto the floor."Tell me, did you give her the bracelet she's been wearing?" Lucas asks, making Leo furrow his brows for a moment before lifting his head."So, Luna wears my bracelet every day??" Leo remarks with surprise."That's not the point right now," Lucas replies sternly."Did you plant the

    Lucas, Leon, and Arka, followed by Carlos and a few detectives, are currently visiting the homes of fishermen to inquire whether there have been any foreign ships around in the past week. Lucas, Leon, and the others observe Arka as he talks to the fishermen. After waiting for a while, Arka approaches Lucas and the group."How did it go?" Lucas asks."They said there hasn't been any ship passing through Darmaga or any foreign vessel seen in the past week," Arka reports, causing Lucas to rub his forehead, unsure of how to proceed in finding Luna."Does that mean the kidnapper is still on the island?" Leon guesses, to which Arka shakes his head."I don't think so. There must be a way for the kidnapper to take Luna off the island. If he's still here, we would have found her by now," Arka's statement prompts Lucas to nod in agreement."So, what do we do now?" Lucas asks, causing Arka to fall silent as he contemplates their next steps."We need to think of another approach," Arka suggests.

    The next morning, Luna woke up to find Travis absent from her room, which brought her a sense of relief. Instead, a servant was present, informed to attend to her needs. "I've prepared warm water for your bath," the servant said as she exited the bathroom, prompting Luna to get out of bed and head towards it.Luna spent a few minutes in the bathroom, trying to gather the courage to use the pregnancy test that Travis had given her. She felt a mix of curiosity and anxiety about whether Travis's claims were true. After a deep breath, Luna finally took the test and then turned her back to it, unable to face the result.Summoning her courage, Luna slowly turned around to see the test. Her eyes widened as her palm covered her open mouth in astonishment. She couldn't believe her eyes – the pregnancy test showed a positive result. Thousands of butterflies seemed to flutter in her stomach as the reality sank in. She felt a surge of joy and excitement.Luna was about to stand up from her seat,
