How exciting would that be like?!“Tell me this is not a joke, Paige! I thought you told me that you will wait for me until I am ready to settle down with you. How could come you tell me that you are married?!” Dylan did not hold back his emotions of anger and rage, and abruptly lashed at her.“Look, Brother Dylan. It is a rushed marriage. I am getting old and no man would want to marry me. I waited so many years for you yet you refused to make me yours.

    Calven rebuked her further charges against him. He closed his eyes and settled for sleep. However, it was harder than it thought. His mind kept recollecting what the old man had said. Some months ago, he met with the old man and explained what he had been feeling since his encounter with Paige. The symbol on her arms and actually what it meant. It wasn't a coincidence that the moon goddess and her shared the same twelve symbols, which gave it only one meaning, she was the moon goddess. If her rebirth story actually coincided with when he had that accident, then it only gave answers to his question. Calven scanned Paige's body as she wrapped herself in towel and removed her cloth.

She was nothing compared to Eddey's beauty and the only main reason men went after her and not Eddey was because of personality issues. Asides that, Eddey was far more better

    “But then again, why would I want such a 'non-beneficial' role when I could have been the movie director? Did Alyssa not tell you the news? I am the movie director!”“....” Silence dawned upon Belinda and her heavy breathing was the only sound heard through the speaker. Paige smirked knowing what Belinda was perhaps meant be thinking of and immediately her next reply confirmed it.“You cannot be too ruthless on Alyssa! Remember you used to dote on her before!” A sneering reply came again causing Paige to chuckle softly.

    “I see you've fallen in love with it,” Paige tilted her head to the owner of the word and gasped when she found how close he was to her. She could literally feel his breath on her lips and that, she cringed and stepped back fighting to hold off a blush from appearing on her face.“Yeah, it is beautiful, ” Paige admitted as she withdrew from his embrace and stood far away from him. Her hands tucked into her pocket as she frowned at the thought of her heart beat uncontrollably because of their closeness. Her minds were tolling with so much thoughts she hadn't noticed that Calven had grabbed her index finger and slipped the golden ruby ring into her fingers and was examining it.“Fits perfectly.
