This tension presented a dilemma in my heart. I wanted to see my father happy, but on the other hand I also didn't want to disturb my father's happiness."I want to thank all of you who have come tonight," my father's voice echoed throughout the room. "Tonight is very special for me, because I want to introduce someone new into my life. This is the new Luna, Luna Maria.”Instantly, all eyes were on Luna Maria. She waved with a sincere smile, but I could see the doubt in her eyes. Maybe she felt the same tension. I felt mixed feelings. On one hand, I wanted to support my father, but on the other hand, I felt lost. My mother had married another man long before and eventually gave birth to my half-sister, Isabella. My mother also loved Isabella more than me.“I know this may feel sudden to you,” my father continued. “But Luna Maria is someone who means a lot to me. She has brought new happiness into my life, and I hope you can accept that.Related chapters

Ariane’s POVI felt mixed feelings. On one hand, I understood his responsibility as Alpha, but on the other, the pain he left behind was still raw. “But, Dad, we need you too. We feel abandoned.”He nodded, his face full of guilt. “I know, and I’m sorry. I want to fix everything. I want to get to know you and Putri better.”I looked at him, feeling a new hope. Maybe this was the beginning of something better. “I want that too, Dad.”That night, we talked more. My dad told me about his life as an Alpha, the challenges he faced, and how he missed us every day. I could feel the sincerity in his voice, and slowly, the walls that had been blocking me started to crumble.When the party ended, I felt lighter. Maybe, our journey to repair this relationship has just begun. I promised myself to give my dad a chance, and hoped he would do the same.As we left the Blue Moon Pack, I felt a new hope in my heart.

Ariane’s POVWhen we gathered in the living room, Luna Maria brought an old photo album that she found while cleaning the attic. She asked us to look at the photos when my father was young, and everyone started telling stories about past memories. Laughter was inevitable when seeing my father's strange hairstyle and how ridiculous he looked in some of the photos. At that moment, I realized how Luna Maria had managed to bridge the gap in our family. She was not only my father's partner, but also a best friend to us, his children. She listened to our complaints, gave advice when we needed it, and celebrated every achievement we made.Not only that, Luna Maria also taught us the value of togetherness and supporting each other. She had a unique way of making every activity special, whether it was by having an impromptu picnic in the backyard or cooking a new dish together.Over time, her presence made us realize how important it is to have someone we can

Mark's POVI rushed home from the restaurant and carefully opened the door, I knew that Ariane was probably asleep. However, when I saw the empty dining table and the quiet living room, worry clouded my mind. My gaze was directed to the bedroom where the lights were still on. I found Ariane lying on the bed, closing her eyes with a frown on her forehead, holding back her discomfort. "Ariane, are you okay?" I called softly as I approached the bed. Ariane opened her eyes slowly. Her face was pale. She tried to smile reassuringly, but none of them were fooled. "Just still a little dizzy, Mark. Maybe because I've been too tired lately." I knew Ariane too well to believe those light words. Lately, Ariane had been visiting her flower shop less often. The small business she had pioneered with great enthusiasm seemed to be a burden as her health condition slowly declined without me realizing it. "Ariane, let's go to the hospital!" I said firmly. I

Mark's POV I explained to my twin daughters Zara and Zoya.“There are several steps we need to do, honey,” I replied with a smile. “First, we need to prepare all the ingredients for this chocolate cake. Have you seen the recipe?”Zara nodded and opened the recipe book on the table. “We need flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and chocolate, right?” she asked excitedly.“That’s right! Besides that, we also need baking powder and a little salt. Let’s get everything from the kitchen,” I said, inviting Zara and Zoya to help.After all the ingredients were gathered on the table, Dad continued, “The second step is to melt the chocolate. We can do it using a double boiler or in the microwave. Zara, do you want to melt the chocolate?”Zara hurriedly took the chocolate bar and cut it into small pieces. “Yes, Papa! I want to!” She was very enthusiastic.Meanwhile, Zoya had arranged the other ingredients. “I will prepare the flour and sugar,”

Ariane’s POVDays passed, and my headaches did not get better, but became more unbearable. Every second felt like the roar of waves crashing against a cliff, demanding attention and pain that never subsided. I knew something was wrong. However, I tried not to burden Mark, my husband, with my worries. He was already busy enough with his work, and I did not want to add to his burden. One day, while Mark was at work, I decided to go to the hospital myself. With steady steps even though my heart was shaking, I drove to the nearest hospital. After registering, I explained to the doctor about the complaints I was feeling. In a calm tone, the doctor asked me to undergo a series of examinations. After waiting for several hours, the results of the examination came out. How shocked I was when the doctor said that I had stage one brain cancer. Like being struck by lightning in broad daylight, the world seemed to stop spinning. All the hopes and dreams that I had built w

Ariane’s POV"I… I was just diagnosed with brain cancer," he said, his voice shaking. "I don't know what's going to happen next. It all feels so scary and confusing," I continued, my voice barely audible.Mark looked at me with empathy, as if he could feel the weight that was weighing on my shoulders. "Ariane, I know this is hard. But remember, you're not alone. We'll get through this together," he said, trying to provide some relief amidst my anxiety.I paused for a moment, trying to process everything I had just said. It felt like a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders, replaced by a deep sadness."I'm scared, Mark. Scared of this whole process, and what would happen if…" my voice began to sound hoarse.Mark nodded, understanding my hesitation. "It's normal to feel afraid, Ariane. Everyone who's faced a situation like this feels it. But we can find ways to deal with it," he said calmly. "There's a lot of support out there

Ariane’s POVI nod, remembering the beautiful moments when they were babies. "Yes, and now they can run and play by themselves. It feels like time has flown by so quickly," I reply, trying to hold back the tears that are starting to pool in my eyes. Mark takes my hand, giving me the support I always need. "We will get through this together. I know it's hard, but you are not alone. We have Zara and Zoya, and they need you." Mark's words always strengthened me. Even though I felt tired and depressed by this disease, seeing my daughters' smiles gave me the spirit to keep fighting. We arrived at the park, and Zara and Zoya immediately ran to the swings. They laughed happily, and I couldn't help but smile at their happiness."Let's play together!" Zoya shouted, inviting us to join. Mark and I looked at each other, then we followed them. We played on the swings, ran around, and even played hide-and-seek. It was as if all the burdens on my shoulders disapp

Ariane’s POVMark shook his head again. "Don't think like that. Every day is a new chance. We will fight, and we will pray. I believe in your strength, and I believe in our love." He took my hand, holding it tightly. "We will find a way to be happy, no matter what.”I felt a little more at ease with his words. Although fear still gripped my heart, a glimmer of hope began to grow. "But what if I can't do it?" I asked again, voice still shaking. Mark smiled softly. "Let's not think about all that right now. Let's just focus on today. We can watch a movie, or maybe you can read me your favorite book. We'll find a way to laugh, even if it's just for a moment." I nodded, feeling the warmth of his embrace. "Okay, let's do that," I said, trying to take my mind off of everything that was scary. "But I want you by my side." "Always," he replied, and we both got up from our seats, heading to the couch in the corner of the room. That night, we spent

We can build sandcastles or play beach volleyball,” Zara added, her eyes sparkling with excitement.After breakfast, we all headed to the beach. The soft white sand felt warm beneath our feet. Zara and Zoya immediately ran towards the water, while Mark and I followed behind. We laughed and joked, feeling the simple yet precious joy.Mark looked at me. “Look, Dad!

Has the doctor told you anything?"I shook my head. "Not yet. Still waiting for the test results."Mark sighed, and I could see the burden he carried. He always tried to be the pillar of strength for us, and I knew how hard it was for him to see me in this state.Zoya, who had been playing in the corner, now approached.

Ariane’s POVI chose to follow both of them, feeling the excitement around us. The sounds of footsteps, laughter from children, and soft music from a nearby café added to the atmosphere. Every corner of the mall seemed to offer something interesting. We paused briefly in front of a food stand, where the spicy and sweet aromas of street food enticed our appetites."How about we try some snacks after this?" I suggested, hoping to satisfy my hunger.

Meanwhile, Zoya, who is quieter and more introspective, has a charm of her own that makes many want to get to know her better.As we sat together in the living room, Zara suddenly broke the silence. "Mom, there's a boy who's been approaching me," she said, her face flushing red. I could see how nervous she was, but there was also a sparkle of happiness in her eyes.

The full moon would reach its peak in a few hours, and we had to be ready.As the night grew late, we moved toward the location we had chosen. It was an open field surrounded by tall trees. From there, we could see the full moon clearly, and Leon would not be able to hide from its light.When we arrived at the field, the atmosphere felt tense.

Mark, my husband, would certainly be worried about me right now.I woke up in darkness, the cold walls surrounding me sending chills down my spine.
