My Human Luna from Slum Chapter 10
Amelia’s POVThe next morning.I wake up in the king-size bed in a new silk gown and stretch my body. Then I walk in front of the window and pull open the curtain, enjoying the sunshine in the morning.There’s breakfast warmed on the table. I open the lid, and my nose is graced by the smell of the hearty breakfast. I take the fork and begin to enjoy the best breakfast that I have ever had. If only I own this mansion!The breakfast is finished. Now it’s time to face the reality.I slump in the chair and sigh while rubbing my legs, which ache from running long miles.The memories of yesterday flood back, I was running like mad, chasing Bucks, running frantically for fear of being chased by Nyx…I shake my head, trying to blot out these memories. It’s a nightmare that I don’t want to relive.Nyx didn’t come here last night. I don’t know the reason. I thought he would come back. After all, he’s the one who insists I stay in the pack house. Forget about it. it’s the best if he can change h

Nyx’s POVAmelia looks up at me in surprise. Her eyelids are red and swollen. She must have cried yesterday. And this thought wrecks my heart.Last night, I had a drink with Duke. In a low mood, I got drunk and I didn't want to meet Amelia while smelling of wine. So I chose to stay in the room next to our bedroom. I miss her all night long. Now I see my little mate is having a bad time, too. I walk over with a bouquet. It’s made with flowers and diamonds. She’ll definitely like it. Her eyes light up when I raise the bouquet in front of her, but she doesn’t take it over. She’s still mad at me, but I won't give up.“Amelia, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t push you. I should've given you more time. I apologize for what I did and said yesterday. That’s just a spur of the moment.”“So what? You’re still gonna lock me in the bedroom.” She looks up at me with her watery eyes and purses her lips. It softens my heart and makes me want to kiss her.“Sorry, I won’t do that again,” I answer.She blinks

Amelia’s POVAfter days of staying together, I find Nyx less annoying.He insists that we sleep together in one bed. When he wakes up one morning and kisses me on my lips, my heart beats so fast that I forget to push him away.I’m falling in love with him inextricably and way out of control.This morning.I open my eyes and stretch my body, glancing around, Nyx isn’t here. After washing up, I walk downstairs in my sleep gown.He’s not in the living room. Where is he?I turn my head and find him in the kitchen.I stand outside the door and look inside. He stands in front of the countertop, with his back to me. He’s in an undershirt and pants with an apron on. He turns on the fire and puts a cube of butter into the pan. He’s frying a steak. The muscles on his arms and his broad back seem more sexually attractive as he cooks. The apron string tied at the back sets off his slim waist. My eyes are fixed on him.Soon, the sizzling sound and the smell of food work up my appetite. I’m hungry

Nyx’s POVThe next morning.When I open my eyes, I feel something is not right.It’s already 8:30.For this second, I snap out of it.I have a meeting at 8:30 am every Thursday.And as I think about it, the clock points to 8:31.I’m already late. I grab my phone and there are three unanswered calls and many messages. I cover my head in annoyance.I’ve been the alpha of the pack since I was eighteen, and this never happened to me except when I was hurt or ill. I know I need to perform my duty to the best if I want sincere respect from my pack members.And today…I should’ve restrained myself last night.Amelia is still sound asleep. She must be tired. I give her a kiss on the forehead and leave the bedroom on tiptoe. I get dressed within one minute, wash up for three minutes, and skip the breakfast. It’s 8:40 when I arrive at the door of the meeting room. God, I haven’t buttoned the top button of my shirt. I button it and check myself again.I take a deep breath and walk into the meet

Amelia’s POV“Can’t you stay for dinner?” I ask him. It’s Sunday afternoon, and he’s getting dressed. I choose a tie and wear it for him. Perfect!“Sorry, honey, I need to leave,” Nyx says. He looks perfect in the clothes I picked out for him. If only he stays here with me in this suit and tie.He is about to leave. I stop him by tugging at his suit. He turns around and sees me in curiosity.“You look so handsome tonight. Stay with me. You know today I’m turning twenty…” I purse my lips and mumble. He smiles at my reaction, leans over, and kisses me. By doing so, he also interrupts me.The kiss lasts for a minute. When he stops, I already forget what I’m going to say.“Honey, I really need to leave. I have an important meeting. And I’ll stay out late. No need to wait for me tonight.” He kisses me on the forehead and leaves soon.I stare at the door of the bedroom, although he has already left.This is my birthday and all I get is a kiss, awesome!Twenty! I’m turning twenty! What more
My Human Luna from Slum Chapter 15
Amelia’s POVAnother clerk comes over and eyes her. Then they start to whisper while covering their mouths. From time to time, they look at me and gloat.This makes me feel very bad. I’m the mate of the alpha, and even the clerks know something I don’t.“What party? What are you talking about?” I ask them.They exchange a look and lower their heads, keeping silent and refusing to give me an answer.This irritates me. “As the mate of the alpha of your mate, I’m asking you, what party are you talking about?”A clerk raises her head reluctantly, “It’s the full moon ceremony party. It’s the most important event of the pack and everyone…”Suddenly, another clerk nudges her.She immediately “I mean, most of the pack members will join the party.”And Nyx is definitely there. But he told me that’s an important meeting. Why didn’t he just tell me it was a party? Why did he lie to me?I need to find out.I put all this stuff back in the showcase except the birthday cake. I pay the bill and turn

Nyx’s POVWhy does Eva keep glancing outside while we’re dancing? What’s in there?As we swirl, I get the dance to look outside the window. But I see nothing.Weird.As I dance, all I’m thinking about is Amelia. What is she doing there? Will she miss me? She asks me to stay with her, but I reject her with a false excuse. And here I am, dancing with Eva.I think she told me something, but I didn’t hear it clearly. I’ll ask her what’s that thing when I come back.Before the ceremony, both Duke and I agree this is the best way. But now I begin to doubt myself, is it really the best way?Whatever, the lie has been told. I’ll tell her everything and make up for her after the ceremony. “It’s just a dance. It will end soon,” I say to myself.I make a point of not touching Eva’s body with my hand in the air, but Eva relentlessly moves closer to me. This makes me annoyed, but I can’t do anything in front of so many people.God, this is a long dance.***********Amelia’s POVI turn around and

Nyx’s POVFinally I’m back. The partying of the night exhausts me.I stand outside the door and look at the window of my bedroom. The lights are off. She must have fallen asleep.I’ll level with her tomorrow morning.I look down at the small jewelry case in my hands. I'll put it beside her pillow so that she can see it when she wakes up tomorrow morning. I can't wait to see her excited smile.I open the door and walk. I slow down so I don’t make any noise. And there’s no need to open the lights. I have excellent night vision. I walk upstairs and slowly open the door of the bedroom.And my eyes meet Amelia’s in the darkness. She sits on the sofa, waiting for me motionless, like a sculpture.I’ve told her not to wait for me. Shouldn’t she fall asleep now?I walk over and put the box in her hands.“Why don’t you have the lights on? I got you a …”Before I’m finished, Amelia waves her hand, and the gift falls.It falls on the carpet and doesn’t make a large sound, but it stings my ear and

Amelia’s POVIt’s eight-thirty in the morning. Nyx has left for work. He came back at midnight yesterday and I don’t even know when he gets up this morning. He’s literally working his guts out. I want to check his injury and I still don’t get the chance. But I bet that wound is quite severe. I can tell from his pale face.I get dressed, leave the pack house, and walk a long way to the appointed place, a coffee shop. It’s in somewhere remote in the pack and it’s a nice place for some private talks.I enter the shop, order two cups of coffee, and begin to wait.As I’m waiting, I look around the coffee shop. The wall next to me is something like a mirror, reflecting my face and my determined look.Soon, the guy I wait shows up and sits in front of me.“Hi, Duke,” I push a cup of coffee in front of him.I can see that he’s a little nervous because I asked him out without telling him the reason.“Remember that promise?” I ask.Duke nods calmly. But he keeps drumming his finger on the table

Nyx’s POVStartled by my words, Eva stops all her movement and looks at me, fear and tension evident in her eyes.I signal her to sit back. She does accordingly. I’m already clenching my fist for fear that I might lose control and kill her. Yes, this can totally happen.“Eva, there’s one thing that you need to explain. Why did the emergency happen exactly after you poisoned me?” I cross my arms and examine her expression closely while I speak, trying to tell whether she’s going to lie or not.“What do you mean?” Eva looks at me in disbelief.I sneer, “Should I make it clearer? Amelia, the rogues attack the pack at the time that fits them the best and ambush me at the right place. What role did you play in this?”She looks at me with her eyes wide, as if she can’t believe my eyes. So she’s playing the victim now. If it wasn’t for her, things wouldn’t have come to this.“Nyx, do you mean it? I’ve been the Luna of the pack for such a long time. Now you’re suspecting me! Do you really th
My Human Luna from Slum Chapter 28
Amelia’s POVI check the message. Still no reply.I don’t believe a word Eva says. But I can tell from Eva’s reaction that Nyx is fine.He must be very busy now. He’s out on a trip and an emergency happens. There must be a lot for him to handle.But I hate that I have to know it from a third person, especially a woman I hate.It sucks.Anyway, I’ll just come back home and wait.After taking a quick shower, I change into my sleeping gown, lie on the sofa in the living room, and pull a blanket over my body.I need to know it immediately when he comes back. I also need sleep. So I’ll just wait for him in the living room.Because of fatigue, I fall sound asleep very quickly.Somehow my forehead feels wet. Someone kisses me.Is it a dream?I slowly open my eyes. Nyx’s face is what I see first.Nyx is back! I’m not dreaming, am I?Seeing that I’m awake, he pulls me into his arms tightly and kisses me on my lips.I wrap my hands around his body.All the tension and worry for the whole night

Amelia’s POV“Amelia, you’re not escaping from the pack, right?” Duke asks with suspicion. What is he talking about? This idiot!Well, he has a good reason to doubt me, because it’s a godsent chance to leave here, with Nyx out of trace and the pack in a mess. But I’ll prove to him that I’ll stay and help.“I’m going to the hospital,” I say to Duke firmly.Duke looks at my expression closely before he nods. Then he stops a warrior and orders him to take me to the hospital.The warrior nods.As I enter the hospital, I’m shocked by what I see.The corridor is crowded with injured warriors. And the physicians are moving in and out of wards. It looks quite similar to the hospitals in the human world.Growing up alone, I have to learn a lot of medical knowledge, because I have no one to turn to when I’m ill. I’ve also learned something about first aid. And these days I’ve been studying the herbs. I believe I can be helpful.A woman in white comes over and notices me. Before I say anything,
My Human Luna from Slum Chapter 26
Nyx’s POVI give my arm a hard pinch so that the pain can sober me up. Before she touches me again, I summon all my force to kick her on her stomach. She lies on the ground and looks at me bitterly.I stumble to the window, open it, and tear the window gauze. I climb on the windowsill. I’ve promised Amelia that I won’t be alone with Eva. I need to get out of here! Damn, it’s the eighth floor. If I’m not posioned, this would be easy for me. But now my head is spinning and my eyelids are heavy, I’m not sure.“Nyx, don’t!” Eva’s voice is getting louder from behind. She’s coming over! No time to hesitate, I swing my legs and take a leap out of the window. I’d rather get injured than stay in the same room with her.Luckily, I steady myself on a narrow ledge outside, gripping the outer wall of the hotel with finger.“Nyx!” Eva looks outside from the window.It’s windy, but the wind doesn’t make me more lucid. And I can feel the strength losing out on me. Shit, I need to get down there fas
My Human Luna from Slum Chapter 25
Amelia’s POVI don’t know exactly when Nyx leaves, because I’m sound asleep at that time. The moment I’m awake alone in the bed, I’m seized by a sense of loss. I begin to miss him.I get up, enter the study room, and try to kill time with books. But I just can’t focus on books! Nyx comes to my mind from time to time and always distracts me. Now I’m learning the effect of bloodroot. And the next second, I’m thinking about what Nyx might be doing now, whether he will miss me, and how he and Eva will get along. He’s out on a pack visit, so I refrain from contacting him. But I miss him so much and I’m expecting his messages. Every time the message notification comes out, I will grab my phone and see if it’s from Nyx. And I will be disappointed.It’s gonna be a long day.Finally, it’s night!More precisely, the sun has set and it has just turned dark. But I can’t wait to contact him! I can’t wait to listen to him talk about his day! I can’t wait to see his face!I know the schedule is v
My Human Luna from Slum Chapter 24
Nyx’s POV“There isn’t a rule that says the alpha needs to stay in one room with Luna, right?” She asks. “No. Of course not. I won’t be alone with her, and I promise no physical contact.” I shake my head wildly, trying to reassure her. I hate to see her looking distressed, although the way she gets jealous is so cute.The Sapphire Pack has a long-standing relationship with The Blue Blood Pack, but the last visit between packs happened two years ago. And this time we have plenty to discuss and agree on. We have to stay there for one night.Amelia purses her lips and doesn’t say anything, with dissatisfaction written across her face.“Honey, trust me! I’ll get you a gift when I come back!” I carry her in my arms and make her sit on my lap, coaxing her and kissing her.Her eyes light up. “I believe in you. Just so you know, I’ll make video calls with you at night. And you’d better answer them immediately” she says with a threatening tone.I smile. “Definitely!” Then I think of something
My Human Luna from Slum Chapter 23
Amelia’s POVEver since I saw her dance with Nyx on that night, I haven’t had any opportunity to see her alone. It’s the first time.I don’t know what she thinks of me. And I don’t care if she’s mateless or what. There’s no need to factor in the third person in my relationship with Nyx. It’s between Nyx and I.Her mere presence once brought me so much pain. And it’s so embarrassing to see her alone. I can’t say I like her, as that challenging smile when she danced with Nyx really stings my eyes. But I’ll be polite.“Hi, Eva.” I force a smile at her.She raises her eyebrow and then reveals a fake smile, “I thought you were not going to say hi.”OK, she hates me. That’s for sure.And I don’t like the way she smiles. She should look herself in the mirror when she smiles, cuz I’m sure she wouldn’t do it if she knew how fake it looked. “Why not? You’re a good Luna.” I ask her with a bright smile, putting on that kind of expression that I’m completely fine and I don’t understand what she’s
My Human Luna from Slum Chapter 22
Amelia’s POVIt’s the first time that I feel that love again after the worst birthday of my life. That kind of strong electricity is running through my veins again.I sit up straight from his arms. Now I look at him, my heart begins to race as I see him in the outfit that I choose for him.Nyx cuts off a piece of cake, puts it in front of me, and feeds me with a spoon. Then he looks at me nervously.The sweetness of the cream mixed with the flavor of strawberries activates my taste buds. It doesn’t look good. But it tastes so nice that I close my eyes to savor it.“It’s so good!” I say with great satisfaction.Nyx’s nervousness shifts into a bright smile.I take a spoon and eat it. Wait, something hard hits my teeth. Why is there something hard inside the cake?I spill it out with a tissue to see what it is. I pick it in my hand and see it closely. It’s a gold ring with a diamond on it!I look at Nyx with great surprise. He takes it from my hand and slides it onto my finger.“Isn’t th
