Moonlight Deception: A Tale Of Ties. Chapter 32 - Pick A Side.
Vincent's POV Do I deserve to be happy? After everything I have done? After everything I have been through?"Vincent, are you okay?" Akira's soft voice jolts me out of my thoughts and back to reality. I shoot dagger glares at her and push her far away from me. "Stay away." I sneer as I feel tears prick from the corner of my eyes.I hear Akira sigh in frustration but I ignore her and take multiple steps towards Roman. "You are a bastard and a liar! I know everything! I know you had a hand in Kaid's death! I do not know if it is because of the jealousy you always felt towards him or if it was because of your unrequited love towards Akira?" I blurt out. I actually regret saying my last statement because I know that the last thing I should be doing is involving her into any of this. I hear her scoff at me and before I can say anything, Akira runs away from me. "Unrequited love? Did that bitch tell you that I ever had feelings her? I do not know what has gotten into you Vincent or why y

Akira's POVVincent thinks I left him but I am only hiding behind the corners, trying to shake off the fear I feel as I watch Elara point the camera in Vincent's face. My heart races extremely fast at Vincent's sudden outburst, how did he just lose control all of a sudden? I feel worry for him, I can not help but gaze at him with pity even though he clearly warned me to stay clear.Something is going on with him and yet again he is hiding it from me. Maybe the both of us do not make that much of a good team after all."I am going to find Kaid's killer and help Akira prove her innocence." I hear Vincent say in such a confident tone. I actually feel reassured by his words, I do all the time. Something about the way he confudently makes his statements always has me believing in him, even in the darkest times. Either that or it could just be the stupid mate bond I happen to share with him.What was the Moon goddess even thinking when she made me Vincent's mate? I mean, it is clearly an ab

Akira's POV My question remains hanging in the air. I am too afraid to walk out of the corner and ask Vincent. I am ashamed as well because Kaid used to be my husband yet he never mentioned anything about his past to me, worse of it all is that I was too stupid to never even ask. He must have thought that I never cared and that was most likely why he never mentioned it.I feel guilt wash over me. I wish I could go back in time and ask Kaid, I wish I acted like I cared more about his past. All those things could have been eating him up on the inside, for the first time since Kaid's death, it actually pops into my mind that Kaid might have committed suicide.I mean as I dig deeper into this case, I slowly realize that Kaid never actually lived a happy life. He was haunted by his pasts and he never actually forgave Vincent which means he was still holding onto a grudge. Could that have been what pushed him to kill himself? Maybe he had already poisoned himself and thereafter, I accident

Akira's POV I suddenly feel tears roll down my cheeks. I bite my lower lip to stop myself from breaking down into sobs. Some people passing by gaze at Vincent and I while making whispering noises while others probably recognize me as the woman who killed her husband. I can feel eyes boring into my soul and it makes me feel a sense of emptiness. I thought Vincent had my back but knowing that I am just some sort of investment to him makes my heart break, I am nothing to him and that means I am alone. I always have and i always will be.I choke out a small cry at the reality of my miserable life. How come I never noticed? "Oh my goodness. Now, you are crying." Vincent mutters. He runs a hand through his hair and takes a few steps towards me. I catch him gaze at me with a look of concern. Or maybe those are just my imaginations? Vincent does not care about me. If he did then he would not have called me an investment."Why are you being so emotional today, Akira?" He asks, his voice is s

Vincent's POV I continue to rant but I notice that Akira's attention is no longer on me but on a certain woman serving drinks in the bar. I clear my throat and that is enough to startle Akira and jolt her back to reality. She stares at me and mumbles. "Look at that lady Vincent." She gulps a lump down her throat and points at the woman."What about her?" I ask with a raised brow. I am slightly irritated at Akira's pathetic attempt to change the topic. I know she does not want to talk about our feelings but why is she trying to cause a diversion by pointing at some random woman? Does she think I am that stupid to fall fir her dumb tricks?"Do you recognize her?" Akira whispers softly while staring at the woman. I scoff and throw my hands in the hair. "This is so unbelievable." I snap at her. Surprisingly Akira nods her head in agreement and flashes me a mischievous smirk. "I know right. Who would have thought that I would meet her here?" She chokes out a small laughter.I can not help

Vincent's POV "Do you think it is a good idea to see her husband instead? I mean it feels kind of disrespectful in a way that we are reporting her to her husband. Do you not think so?" Akira mutters from behind. I scoff and shoot dagger glares at Akira, that is enough to silence her."Easy for you to say. She should have thought about it before throwing trash all over me. I mean look at the way everyone keeps glaring at me as if I have shit on my face!" I yell angrily. Akira raises her hand in mock surrender and takes a few steps backward. She has a disgusted look on her face just like how everyone else gaze at me, with irritation and disgust."Excuse me Sir." I hear someone yell from behind. I turn around to gaze at an old fragile man clutching a walking stick tight. Who is he? I raise a brow at him and gesture him to start speaking before i lose my patience, Akira on the other hand just bows her head at him respectfully."The customers here are not pleased by the stench.

Akira's POV“I hereby sentence Akira Dormac to five years imprisonment!”The judge's gravel came down, sealing my fate once and for all. I stood still, my entire body covered in sweat. I gulped a lump down my throat as the guards marched towards my direction. They were not going to spare me a minute to talk to my loved ones.I managed to sneak a glance at Elara. Her eyes were covered in tears and she was lying carelessly on the floor, wailing.My entire body trembled before everyone. My heart raced extremely fast like a wild animal. The courtroom's tense atmosphere suffocated me but I refused to back down, I could not. Here I was, taking the blame for Kaid. I could not imagine the thought of my husband going to jail, I had to take the blame for him. Out of the love I feel for my husband, I insisted that I go to jail in his place. I paused to gaze at Kaid, our eyes met and a look of pity flashed over his face.“I will get you out of here!” He yelled with so much enthusiasm. “I prom

Akira's POV “Elara!” I yell with tears rushing down my cheeks. My sister glares at me with a nonchalant and unbothered look on her face. She leans closer to the bedside table and pours herself a glass of wine.“Those darn guards, how dare they let you in?” Kaid sneers. He eyes me with a look of disdain.I break down into sobs. I clutch my stomach tight and allow the tears to rush down my cheeks as I realize that the real reason why Kaid never visited was not because of pack duties, it was because he had moved on with his life and I was stupid for holding onto him.“How could you?” I stutter, my entire body trembles in shock.“How could I? Come on Akira, let us be realistic here. How did you expect me to wait for you for five years? I am a Man, I have to satisfy my sexual feelings.” Kaid says in a defensive tone.I place my hand over my mouth and my eyes widen in shock at how bold he is to defend himself.“I did it for you! I did everything for you! The reason I spent five years in p

Moonlight Deception: A Tale Of Ties. Chapter 31 - Doubting Happiness
Vincent's POV I felt anger course through my veins as I watched Roman yell at Akira. I clenched my fist tight and gritted my teeth in anger as I noticed how Akira's face fell, her hands were shaky and as a matter of fact, her whole body trembled. I felt pity for her. She was already going through so much and now Roman was making it worse by making her feel severely guilty."Stop." I heard Akira beg in a shaky tone. I sighed heavily, as Roman continued to yell at Akira, I could slowly watch her break into pieces. She took a few steps backward and accidentally bumped into me.Akira's face softens, I hear her mutter something like. "I am not alone." I sigh heavily and push her behind me. I stand in front of Roman with a huge frown on my face. "Stop bullying her Roman. At least have some dignity. She is already feeling enough guilt. You are making things worse." I snap at him.Roman eyes me with disdain. He scoffs and shakes his head at the both of us. "So what are you guys now? A couple
Moonlight Deception: A Tale Of Ties. Chapter 30 - Not Alone
Akira's POV Vincent shrugs lightly and waves it off but the suspicious look I give him causes him to throw his hands in the air and flash the phone screen in my face. It is a call from an unknown number. "Why are you not picking it?" I ask, furrowing my brows at him in confusion, mixed with slight suspicion at the way his face becomes slightly pale by my question."It is an unknown number Akira, I do not know who is calling." Vincent retorts. I roll my eyes at him. That should be more reason why he should pick the call. It could be Elara or Roman. Unless, Vincent might know who it is but is trying to cover it up in front of me. I eye him suspiciously and snap at him "How else are you going to know who is calling if you do not answer the call.""Come on Akira. More like those are a lot of reasons why I should not answer the call. It could be a prank call." Vincent trails off. I scoff and choke out a bitter laughter. Is he kidding me right now? Prank call? Who would want to prank him w
Moonlight Deception: A Tale Of Ties. Chapter 29 - What Are We?
Akira's POV I slowly flutter my eyes open and they come in contact with a very peaceful version of Vincent. His eyes are shut close and i can help but admire how beautiful he looks when sleeping. His eyelashes are soft and long. I fight back the urge to caress his face. I gulp a lump down my throat as I clutch the bedsheets tight. What have I done though? Did I just have sex with my late husband's brother? I feel guilt wash over me and I release a sigh of frustration. My feelings are confusing me by the day. The more I draw closer to Vincent, the more I feel excited by his presence. I know I am doing the wrong thing, i know I should stop but I keep doing that.Is Kaid seeing us? How disappointed is he in me? I killed him and now I am having sex with his brother? I am such a horrible person!"Good morning." A familiar deep voice jolts me out of my thoughts and back to reality. I snap my eyes open and they come in contact with a beautiful pair of grey eyes. My heart races extremely fa
