Aria's perspectiveI shoved her aside gently and headed for the stairs. She scoffed, gripped my wrist, and spun me around to face her.“What’s the meaning of this?” I asked and folded my hands defensively across my chest. I was thinking of having a word with her after what Silas told me about her. A lot had happened within these past weeks and I wasn’t able to reach out to her.“I should be asking you, do you think you can move around because you have Neon’s mark on your neck? Do you have any idea what he would lose because of you?”“Because of me or because of you?” I huffed and took a step closer to her. “Isn’t that way you are doing this? Have you forgotten you lied to me, Diana? You told me you were just a worker here meanwhile you were Neon’s temporary Luna. You said you cared about me but you lied, you did that so Neon would hate me.”“So?” She uttered.I gasped in unbelief.That was what she had to say? She wasn’t going to apologize for what she did.“You are unbelievable Diana.
Silas' perspectiveI tried to make Aria eat but she just sat there looking gloomy and won’t touch the meal I served on her plate. One minute she’s happy and the other she’s sad, the bitter-sweet moment she shared with Neon was sickening to me.I wanted her to be happy, and whenever I see her this way, I hate it.I wanted to help her but I didn’t know how to cheer her up or what to do.I had lost my appetite to eat, I shoved my food aside and watched her.She sighed, and stared at the clock that was above our heads. Was she waiting for Alpha?I was angry at him, why would he choose to treat Diana that way when his mate was before him? He should have pushed her or kicked her aside and stood beside Aria instead. But Neon has a soft spot for Diana, and he couldn’t see her get hurt.I don’t know how I was going to prove to him to see the truth side of her, she was nothing like he thought she was, and if she tried to hurt Aria the next time I wouldn’t just sit back and watch her.She was luc
Aria's perspectiveNeon came back and I followed him to the bedroom, I dropped the box I had taken along with me on the bed. Neon was taking off his shirt. There was a slight stain of blood on them.“Is Diana okay?” I asked, standing behind him.“She’s fine.” He rumbled and tossed the shirt aside, he walked to his wardrobe to take another shirt.“Neon, I didn’t—“He spun around and exhaled, my mouth clamped shut. I couldn’t say what I wanted to, I didn’t want Neon to see me as if I was that kind of a person. I would never hurt anyone.“It was a mistake, that was what Diana said, and worse, I couldn’t sense that you lied. Diana was telling the truth that you pushed her. Why?”“She was blocking my path.” I tried to explain, why did Neon think I did that to her, and what lies Diana fed him that he believed what she said.“And you pushed her away?”“No, Neon that was not it. I would never push her that way, I have nothing against Diana.”“She told you she has feelings for me and that got y
Neon's perspectiveI swept everything off my desk, flipped the table in the study room and screamed.This isn’t what I wanted but I couldn’t stop it from happening. Aria wasn’t wrong that I was afraid of losing my title as Alpha, my father lost it before he was killed by rogues.I didn’t want to end up the way he did, that’s why I thought I could handle the situation.But things were getting out of hand, and I almost fought with my Beta, which was wrong, Silas has been beside me for a long, and I know I shouldn’t have done that to him.It just happened at the wrong time. I was already pissed after the conversation I had with Aria and his words just happened to ruin everything.I have to explain a few things to Aria and make her see things the way I do. I don’t want her to leave me, I don’t think I would be able to survive it if she leaves.I slid on the ground slowly and held my hands around my legs. I wanted to see Aria, but I needed some time before I went to her. Maybe she would hav
Aria's perspective“I love you, mate.” That was when I opened my eyes and saw Neon leaving the bed. I heard all that he said to me but I didn’t respond, I pretended like I didn’t hear him.He walked to his wardrobe to pick up a jacket. He was about to leave when he switched the lights off.If I didn’t say anything, he was going to leave the house. If he leaves the house at this time, he is probably up to something, and it has to involve violence.“Where are you going, Neon?”He wasn’t going to get his dinner, he wasn’t preparing for bed either, everything he had just said wasn’t it. He was lying to me, he was heading somewhere else, which he didn’t want to say.It couldn’t be any place good.“I thought you needed some time. I was going to stay away for a while.”I scoffed, and sat upright, with my head on the headboard and my hands folded.“So?”“I was going for a hunt.” He admitted and stared at his feet for a moment before he looked up and met my gaze.“Hunt?”He hummed.I lay on the
Aria's perspectiveWhen I woke up, Neon wasn’t in the room with me but there was breakfast on the bedside table and a note.I entangled myself from the bedsheets and picked up the note.‘I have an important meeting, I will send Silas to come get you by 7 pm. I made you breakfast, make sure you eat. Neon.’A smile touched my lips as I read the note. I dropped them beside the breakfast that was covered on the table.I wanted to freshen up before I ate breakfast, so I left the bed and went to the bathroom.I didn’t leave the room after breakfast, I decided to use the paint Silas brought, I took it to the balcony, there was a straight door in Noen’s bedroom, that led to the balcony.I sat there and painted.I heard a knock which distracted my thoughts from the paintings, and decided to go get it.I wasn’t expecting anyone and Neon won’t be back home by this time and he’s never the type that knocks.I opened the door, holding it with my hand, and glanced sideways, my eyes fell on Diana. She
Aria's perspective“Aria, I’m here,” Silas announced from the door, I was putting on my earrings, and I was already done dressing up. I wore an evening dress with a strap hand and a flat shoe.“I will be out in a second!” I yelled from the inside, fixed my bracelet on my wrist and packed my hair.I glanced at the mirror, and smiled, satisfied with my looks.I walked to the door and opened it. Silas was standing outside with his hands in his pocket. He waved at me and dropped his hands awkwardly. He did everything to avoid meeting my gaze.“We should leave, I have gotten the car ready.” He cleared his throat, I nodded and followed him out. The guards at the door bowed at Silas, they opened the front door and Silas stepped out.They lowered their head when they saw me behind him, I’d wonder if they ever talked, I have never heard them say a word.“Don’t they talk?” I asked Silas when we were out of the house and was standing by the Bentley car.“They do but...” He sucked his teeth and he
Neon's perspectiveOur hands were intertwined as we walked towards where I kept a mattress for us to sit, I brought dinner as well. I asked Silas to order them because I didn’t have enough time to prepare them when I left the office, I was already running late.Aria looked so beautiful, and she accepted to be my Luna. I couldn’t change that she’s human, the only thing I could do was protect her.Silas was right when he said I should decide on what to do, I can’t reject her or send her away from me.I want Aria close to me. I don’t think I would be able to live without her.“This is so beautiful, Neon.” We stood in front of the mattress and I held both hands.“Not as beautiful as you,” I responded. Her cheeks turned red, I let my fingers graze on her cheeks and smiled.“Let’s eat.” I made a gesture for us to sit.“So is it true that the Moon Goddess lives here?” She asked while we sat down.I shook my head. “I doubt that.”We laughed. “I think the Moon Goddess is everywhere watching us,
