Ezra’s POV

The comfort of the bed and the thick duvet forces my body to stay. I look on the left side of my room to check the clock. It’s already 10 in the morning and I am still here in my room.

I actually think it’s a good thing to stay here inside. It’s been three days since I last saw Ryler. After that conversation, he did not sleep here in my room nor invited me to stay with him.

Another three consecutive knocks were heard in my door room. The knock has been going on for (if I am not mistaken) 3 hours now.

Someone knocked on my door as early as six in the morning. I do not have the energy to get up so I let it be. Eventually, they stopped for a couple of hours until they went back to wake me up again.

I don’t usually slack off, but these days, it’s been hard for me to get up and start my morning.

I stare at my currently closed door. Good thing no one dares to open the door unless I give them permission.

They already knocked thrice. I should open it now.

“I’m coming,” I said.

I gagged in front of the toilet bowl. I let out all the food that I ate last night.I already lost count of how many times I vomit today. The first thing I did this morning is rush in the bathroom and puke.I am not feeling well since yesterday. Well, actually, since last week.It’s been exactly seven days since Ryler and I talked. He also haven’t get home yet.I am not feeling well emotionally since then, but now, even my physical health is declining.I heard my front door burst out open. I do not have to rush to check who it was.“Luna!” Gia called when she saw me slumping down on the bathroom floor.She’s the only one who has the guts to barge inside my room without asking for my permission these days. It started when she saw me lying on the side of my bed. I told her that I was just tired and did not notice that

    “Bruce...” I whispered.My heart started pounding loudly. I feel like my feet are glued on the floor. It’s been months since I last saw him. That was the first. There was never a day in my life that I wish not to see him again.“Luna, we should sit there. The auction will already start...” Gia keeps on talking in the background but her voice keeps on fading in the background.All I can see is him. I still remember how he disrespect me.My gaze landed on the three girls beside him. I scoff. He still haven’t change. He is still the same manwhore who buys slaves because no one wants to f*ck him.“Luna?”I blink uncontrollably. Gia tapped my shoulders to pull me back in reality.“Are you okay, Luna? If you are not feeling well, we can go back–”“I’m fine. I just saw the guy who wanted to bought me before when I was sold in an auction,” I replied.I did not wait for her response and went straight to the table. I do not know if this was the table reserved for us or they really did not let a

Let's go grab one," I replied.We stand on our seats to go to the food area but Shiro stopped us."Are you going to hoard all those food?" I furrowed mg brows due to what he asked. I turn my heat at his direction. Shiro shrugged. "I just thought you guys are excited to eat those kinds of food," he added.I stared at him without giving him any expression. I completely face him.I can't believe this shallow form of jokes is still used.I closed our gap. Even though he is taller than me, since I am standing and he is sitting on his chair, he looked up to me."Would you mind leaving our table? I do not like you near me," I said straightforwardly.I can take the insults thrown at me but it would be a different issue when they'll start insukting those who stay beside me.I stare at him without flashing any expression so he

Nothing changed on how she looked from the last time I saw her except to the decent gray dress that she is now wearing."Seriously?" I heard Shiro commented. I darted my gaze at him. His eyes are all on my mom, frowning. "I went here to buy a slave, but none of them told me that this is the kind of slave they are selling," he added.My hands curled into a ball. I did not notice that my fingers are already digging into my palm.I know my mother did horrible things, but her words are strucking straight into my heart.Gia walk towards me and reach for my elbow to gently catch my attention."Luna," she called.I look at Shiro from head to toe. I do not see him that much in the territory but when I do, I always feel so distant from him. Before, I thought it is because I was simply awkward on how we started. However, I realized the reason behind why

Your own mate's family was murdered by your family!"Gasps from the audience echoed the place. I gritted my teeth. So this is her plan all along, huh? Bring it on.I roam my eyes on the crowd. I raise a brow up before taking a deep breath. "I know suspision is already rising to each of everyone of you," I said.The whispers died down and now, all attention is already on me."Slavery should not be normalize. I know some of you already know where I came from." Silence enveloped the crowd. Now, because I started this, I need to end it. "I was a slave--""Yeah, I remember you. I wanted to buy you before. No wonder Ryler bought you for $100,000. He probably saw the beauty in you like I did!" Bruce excalaimed, cutting me off.I almost rolled my eyes from what he did. Whispers once again started.

The glittery halter top dress shines bright and makes my fair skin dominate.Gia lean towards me and levels her face into mine. We both look at the mirror.“You look like a godess of light!” she commented.I chuckled and slightly shakes my head.“Stop it, Gia!” I softly and playfully hit her arm.She made me stand as we both walk in front of the full-length mirror.“See? You look pretty!” I smiled. I reach for the hem of my dress and lift it a little. I made a small sway to see how the skirt of the dress will move.“I do not know why I have to dress this way. It will be torn anyway.”Gia sighed. “Even so. This is the day that you will transform! This is the day that you will meet your wolf.”“Can I just do this privately?” I asked.I swear, I have no idea how many times I tried everyone around me, including Ryler,

I can sense Ryler's presence on my back, but I did not date look back at him until we reached the balcony just across teh dinning area."What do you want to talk about?" I asked.I do not know why I am acting this way. Indeed, I told him to give me space. But I won't lie. My heart feels warm whenever he visits me and tries to court me. It is true that I do not want to go back to the Midnight Shadow pack. However, the thought of him not pursuing me to go back with him also hurts me. "I know you do not want to rush things, Celestine." He inserted his hand into his pocket and look straight into my eyes."But...?" I continued.I can sense in his tone that he wants to say something."The pack is already looking for an heir. I cannot disclose to them about you and the baby. I do not want to put pressure on you."I gu

Did he call him?Clement noticed the weight of my stare and looked back at me. He then shrugs his shoulders and continues eating.Well, based on how he is acting, I think he is unaware of this.“Midnight Shadow Pack? Isn’t that the pack where you came from?” Briner asked, breaking the silence.I darted my eyes at him. “Yep.” I avoided my gaze at him and went back to eating. “Ohh, alright,” he murmured.He caught my attention. “Alright, what?” I asked.He raises his hand in front. “Nothing. It just comes to mind that he is possibly your ex-mate.”“He is,” my brother answered. “Should we let him in?” he asked my father.My brows furrow. Why is he only asking Father and not me? Clement directed his head at me after noticing my heavy gaze.“Do you want him here?” he innocently asked.Thought you

Clement doesn’t want to tell me. All he said was his family and ours are close friends. He also emphasized that he is single and an Alpha.“You look exactly like your mother, gorgeous,” Loryna commented. Her hands gently rest on my shoulders as we both look at my reflection in the vanity mirror in front of us.I flashed a small smile. The glam team that my brother hired to doll me up did a great job. My cheekbones are enhanced, they made my eyelashes longer, and the rosy blush cheeks perfectly complimented my fair skin.What I did not like was my hair. They tied my hair in a messy bun. It did look good on me, but I am not comfortable with my hair tied up and exposing my neck. I got too shy to ask them to repeat it, so I just told Loryna to fix my hair right after the team left.“It’s probably the makeup,” I replie

The sun is shining brightly but gladly, it doesn’t hurtfully strike through my skin. Hit by the blinding light of the sun along with the warm breeze of the wind here on my small balcony, it feels refreshing.My head turned on my closed door when I heard three consecutive knocks. “Come in,” I confidently replied.There are only a few people who knock on my door. Whoever it was, I am pretty sure I won’t be awkward to face them with my morning face.I tied tightly my robe around my waist while I watched the door push open from the other side.“Good morning,” Clement greeted.I smiled at him. “Morning,” I replied.“May I come in?”“Sure.”Clement closed the door behind him after he stepped inside. He then walks towards me.“You like the balcony?” he asked.I chuckled. “Yeah. I love watching the sunrise.”“You should have got the r

I just want to talk to your ex-boyfriend," he shrugged.Clement stood on his seat and buttoned his coat. He fixes his necktie as if he is preparing for a formal meeting."Ryler isn't my ex-boyfriend," I clarified and avoided my gaze.In my peripheral vision, I can feel the weight of his mocking stares at me. I look in his direction and bravely lift my chin up, giving him equal intensity as his stares.Clement cockily looks at me with his left eyebrow shot up. "Not your ex? Then what is he? Still your boyfriend?"I pushed my tongue on the inside of my left cheek. The smirk on Clement's lips grew wider.He isn't my boyfriend. He is my mate! We did not even enter that phase.

I was out with my brother and father for a couple of hours, and when I got back in here, my plain pearl-white room was now replaced by a beige and a more lively atmosphere.Loryna was not already here when I got back. I roam my eyes around. Aside from the light atmosphere, there are also indoor plants placed on the hanging cabinets on the wall of my room. I smiled. They say greens are good for the eyes. I don’t know if it’s true, but staring at these calm-looking plants, I think they were right. I was enjoying the simple view here in my room when I heard a knock on my door.“Celestine, may I come in?” Clement asked. I smiled. We were just together a while ago but he’s already here again. “Yeah, sure,” I replied. The door was pushed open from the other side. Clement stepped inside while carrying a mug of I

All I have in my mind right now is to know my pack. “U-Uhmm…” To be honest, I do not know what to answer. I may be a Luna in the Midnight Shadow pack, but I am completely new to this pack. I do not know any of their law. “What about the basic rules here in the pack?” I suggested. “That’s good. But I suggest you start with the people inside the house,” Clement said. He reaches for my hand that is resting on the table and caress it with his thumb. “I know you are eager to take back the life that was stolen from you. We want it too. But you do not have to rush, Celestine. You have forever to know us,” he added. I smiled at him. Now I completely understand why I felt this way when I first saw him. I was indeed intimidated because he came from an influential family and pack, but out of all the people in power who I have met, he’s the first one I get comfortable with. “Clement is right
