CLARA

After the little chat with Lillian, I felt a bit better, I didn't even get to enjoy my snacks because I rushed them all, The orange drink was filling and the cookies were so yummy. I back into the mansion after two hours only to face an angry Roberto

"Oh please for heaven's sake, don't give me that look Roberto" I frowned. His facial expression softened and he walked closer to me.

"I'm sorry, I was worried, where were you?"

"Outside, taking fresh air, I needed to clear my head and the weather seemed nice"

He made an 'O' with his lips and nodded like he understood. "That's great to hear, you okay now"

"A bit, someone talked some sense into me"

"Who?"

"No one really special but special"

He raised a brow at me clearly confused but didn't push the matter any further.

"You hungry?"

"Yes yes, I am! The snacks I had weren't really satisfying"

"Oh is that so?" His face twisted a bit. "Who made such? Let me know-".

"No no, I meant that it was so good I didn't have enough to my fill"

    CLARAAfter cooking, Roberto called for Maria and the maids to clean up while we wanted to go and refreshen up, I had flour well everywhere, my hair, face and my white clothes damn, I could say more for Roberto especially thanks to me turning flour at him multiple times. Immediately Maria walked into the kitchen after she was summoned by Roberto she burst out giggling but stopped immediately when Roberto stared daggers at her. "Don't even talk about it Maria" He warned"I'm sorry My king and Luna, it's just" She couldn't hold it any longer and started laughing which made me feel embarrassed. Roberto noticed my slight discomfort and cleared his throat. "If you don't stop laughing I'll have your head on a silver plate," He said sternly which immediately shut Maria up. He laughed at her reactions but stopped when he noticed how angry I was. "Roberto!" My eyes widen at him. "That wasn't funny""Well it was to me" he chuckled. "No, it wasn't!""Of course" he rolled his eyes and pecked

    CLARAAfter the run with Rae, I shifted back to my human form and headed back into the palace, everything felt somehow off immediately after I got in so I decided to explore the palace once again, this time heading for the painting room. "Being a while since I last touched paint" The nostalgic thought of me painting and drawing made me smile, I skipped while humming to myself until I finally got there... I think. It was a big door but somehow colorful, the door was designed with gold and silver then black traced on it, I couldn't describe it but it was beautiful, I gently pushed the door and found myself opening my mouth wide open. It was A FREAKING BIG HALL FULL OF ARTWORKS AND PAINTING EQUIPMENTS!!! I squeaked like a child and started admiring every piece of art I saw. First, I walked past the shelf filled with clay models, pots, and stuff like that then I noticed a box filled with Wait what are those? I picked up a strange-looking object that seemed interesting but creepy so I

    CLARA"Hey baby" I heard someone say and nudge my arm. "Hey Clara""Hm?" I groaned while taking a very long stretch and finally opened my eyes. "Oh hi Roberto!""You are finally awake" He smiled. "I have been trying to get you to wake up for some time now""Oh really? Sorry must have fallen into a very deep sleep, not going to lie those snacks really hit the spot""Hmhm" He nodded and helped me get up. I yawned covering my mouth with my hands and turned around"Oh, we are still in the painting room?""Yeah, it's 2 am by the way""2 am?! Wait I slept here since that time?"He looked at me with a 'yeah obviously face' and then chuckled. "Come on let's go"As I was about to head towards the door, I remembered. "Hey Roberto, What were you painting before I fell asleep?"His face turned red and he cleared his throat. "Oh that, Hm come here," He said as he walked towards a small painting board that was covered with black clothes, slowly taking it off I finally got to see what he drew. It w

    CLARA"Fuck this" I muttered unable to resist the urge to curse countless times, what is so hard there? I know something is going on but why won't anyone tell me?? Knock knockI ignored Knock knock knock"Who is there?!" "I am sorry Luna, it is me Lillian your handmaiden,""Come in," I sighed and sat on my bed"Good morning Luna" She bowed "I'm sorry for the disturbance, but breakfast is served,""I will pass,""How about I bring it upstairs if you don't want to eat downstairs?""No""Alpha personally said we should make sure you at least eat something, you skipped dinner yesterday,"Oh, now he cares? I mentally shook my head in disbelief at how confusing and unpredictable Roberto can be sometimes. "I said I will pass,""But-" She attempted to speak but kept quiet when I turned to face her angrily. "But what?" I said not hiding the annoyance creeping in. "Nothing My Luna, I will leave now, if you need anything please call me.""I won't for now, you can leave,"She nodded and le

    CLARAWe both sat in the dining while the servants filled the table with different types of food and fruits, my mouth immediately started salivating at the sight of the food. Unfortunately, when I tried to pick up my spoon, it fell and I groaned looking at my fingers. Damn, they really bandaged it really tight. "What's wrong?" He asked as he looked up at me noticing that I wasn't eating"It's nothing, it's just-""Just what?""I can't eat,""Why?" He raised a brow. "You don't like the food? Should I have them throw it away and make another?""What?!" I exclaimed. "No no that's not it, they wrapped my fingers so tightly I find it a bit hard to pick up my spoon"He made an 'O' face and then smiled. "Want me to feed you?""What?! I... What...... I... " Wow, I didn't know I was a stammerer. He stood up took the chair next to me sitting there and picked up my spoon. "Now open up""Roberto, people are watching," I whispered as I looked at the servants surrounding us"Oh them? They don't m

    ROBERTOI sat in my office paying half attention to what everyone was saying, it was a meeting about a new pack trying to invade our lands. "I suggest we take them out?" Alex, my right-hand man suggested. "Taking them out would cause war," I heard another voice say."But they asked for it, what do you say My Alpha, give your orders and I'll wipe them out immediately," Alex turned towards me with a bow.I wasn't even paying attention anymore, my head was hurting, and lack of sleep was really taking a toll on me. I couldn't even think straight and I didn't want to make a bad decision, Leo had also been quiet ever since the meeting started. "Let's postpone this meeting, I have a slight headache,""But," Alex tried to object but kept shut when I looked at him. "Of course Alpha," They all bowed and exited my office, I summoned Maria immediately. "My Alpha, you summoned me?" She said as she entered my office."Ah yes, I need coffee," I said as I rubbed my temples trying to soothe the pa

    ROBERTO "Mom?" I stood up from my tiny little bed using both of my hands to clean my eyes. "Mom?" I called out again.No response.I quickly dashed out of my room heading towards her room but I stopped in my tracks when I heard noise. The same nightmare over and over again, just like the other times but this time it was different, I stared at the horrible scene in front of me, my father was slowly dragging daggers along my mother's body torturing her and making her death a slow and painful one. I was just a kid, I stood up above watching what was going on, using my hand to hold my mouth, my mother's eyes finally met mine and she shook her head 'No.'Slowly my father turned his head towards me with a sick wicked grin, as I was about to run away I felt someone grab my shirt. Clara? My eyes widened, this time the whole scene had just changed right before my eyes, it wasn't my mother my father was torturing anymore it was Clara and she held onto my arm screaming for my help.

    CLARAI woke up in Roberto's arms, I looked up to see that he was fast asleep, thankfully the dark circles around his eyes seemed to disappear a bit, I quietly got up trying to make sure not to wake him up but I felt someone pull me by hand back to the bed. "Where are you going?" I heard his deep voice say but when I looked at him, his eyes were still tightly shut. "Oh hi, good morning, I thought you were asleep and I wanted to use the bathroom.""Oh, alright then, but come back immediately after you are done," he let go of my hand and turned over making him lay on his side. "Sure," I smiled and pecked his cheek. I tiptoed to the bathroom and stood in front of the mirror, sighing deeply I turned on the tap and splashed water on my face, I still couldn't believe it, all along it was Roberto, my heart sank just remembering his words from yesterday. Poor guy he's been going through all that all alone, not only he didn't get to enjoy life with his mother, he dreamt of her death every

    CLARATwo years later."Silver, come here," I cooed at my little baby who had just finally taken his first step. "Aww, look at you. All grown up and handsome."I picked him up and caressed his chin while he tugged at my sleeve. "No, don't chew that," I scolded and yanked my sleeve away causing him to cry."Dear heavens, Olivia please take this child away from me."She chuckled and took Silver from me, who immediately stopped crying and started giggling. I scoffed as the both of them started cooing at each other."Might as well be his mother too."Olivia chuckled and sat in front of me. "Luna, he loves you and you know it.""He's stubborn.""He's like his mother," she whispered under her breath, but I heard her loud and clear."How DARE YOU?!" I playfully scolded her. We both sat there, she carried silver in her hands humming softly to him, while I knitted a cute baby cap for him.He was turning two very soon. I was so excited to finally celebrate his birthday! Even though it's a few m

    CLARAI woke up feeling a bit lightheaded, I looked around confused. Why was I in a hospital?I groaned as I placed my hand on my head, I felt something wrapped around it...a bandage?Wait..that's right.I was kidnapped and-What the fuck happened next?!!!I tried to move, but a sharp pain emitted and I collapsed back on my bed panting hard. I remember Cassandra hitting my hand and I hit my whole body with a tree, but what happened next?But more importantly, where's Roberto, Landon? Storm? Olivia? Mateo?!!!I groaned louder as I forced myself to get up, the hospital room was extremely large, large enough to be a whole chamber.I gently pushed the door open and I gasped when I saw Mateo standing outside. "Mateo!" I sighed in relief."Luna-" he was cut short when I wrapped my arms around him pulling me into a tight hug."Oh, sorry," I blushed and pulled away from him. "I'm sorry, I got excited and it's good to see you. Alive and well."He smiled and nodded. "It's great to see you too L

    CLARAI struggled against the ropes, my heart racing as I sucked in my breath. Cassandra and Alexander seemed to be deep into their conversation as both of them turned their backs on me.Suddenly, Cassandra went behind me, I could feel the ropes that tied my hands getting tighter."Cassandra, what are you doing?" I gasped, breaking through the surface.She leaned over, her lips bearing touching my ears. "Just making sure," She slid the glass I hid in between my palm. "You know, you aren't very smart."She waved the glass at my face before throwing it into the pool. "How foolish of you, you actually thought you could outsmart us and run away?""Let me go! You won’t get away with this!" I shouted at her."Such fire! But you're not in a position to make demands," She taunted, glancing back to Alexander, who was watching us with a blank expression on his face."I can't wait any longer. Let's proceed," Alexander spoke up, crossing his arms. "The longer we wait, the more unpredictable our l

    ROBERTOI sat in my office and glanced over at the wall clock opposite me. It's been an hour since I left Clara, but I just had this sudden urge to see her.I left my office and headed to her room. The guard who stood there moved and bowed as he sighted me. "Clara?" I knocked, but no one answered."Where's the Luna?" I asked the guard who stood outside her room."No Alpha, the Luna hasn't returned yet.""She hasn't? It's dark right now. Could she still be outside?"I went back to the courtyard, but she wasn't there. My heart started racing fast as I began to run around the palace but there was no sign of her."Mateo!" I picked up my phone and dialed his number. "Find the Luna!" I said and cut the call.After a few minutes, he ran up to me, panting hard. "Alpha... The Luna hasn't been found yet.""What do you mean you can't find the LUNA?!" I screamed at the top of my voice as Mateo returned, his eyes seemed like they were about to pop out."I left her outside! And I have strict instr

    CLARAI lay on the ground, the world around me began to clear, and panic surged through my veins as I struggled to comprehend what had just happened.The last thing I remembered was the gentle breeze and stars then-"Fuck!" I cried as I held my head, all I could feel right now was a headache, one that could split my brain into two."Roberto?" I called out softly. Where am I? Suddenly, my vision began to fade, and the shadows around me began to close in. I felt the weight of the night pressing down, and just before everything went dark.I caught a glimpse of a figure looming over me."Who are-""You should have listened to your dear husband and stayed in," The voice whispered, sending chills down my spine.That voice..."You're-""Hello, sister."I gasped as the realization hit me. That voice was unmistakably familiar- my elder sister."Why did you-" Betrayal coursed through Mr as I succumbed to darkness, realizing I had been trapped in her twisted game all along."Olivia was right...

    CLARAI was fast asleep when all of a sudden Olivia burst into my room breathing hard. The sound of my door being shut hard made me jolt up."What is it?" I gasped as I rubbed my eyes, I controlled myself not to scream at her."Luna? Why are you in bed?" She stared at me with wide eyes."What do you mean why am I still in bed? I've been in bed ever since you left!" I answered annoyed."I'm so sorry...it's just, I thought I saw you outside the training ground. Just now!""What?" I blinked rapidly, the sleep had now disappeared from my eyes. ~O~Roberto sat on my bed, holding me in his arms as he gently rubbed my belly, for some reason, that calmed me down and I enjoyed it.Olivia stood opposite us, her eyes wide and her hands shaking terribly. While Landon sat on the chair next to my desk."Olivia, repeat what you told the Luna," Roberto said, his voice laced with slight annoyance.She took a deep breath as she cleared her throat. "I went out for some fre

    OLIVIAI stood at the door watching Luna cry softly, she wasn't aware that I was in the room with her. I came in to drop her breakfast as she had completely stopped eating at the dining.To her, she claimed it was pointless since the cooks had been changed and only me and Ma'am Maria had control over what she ate.I let out a deep breath as I stood there, holding the tray still in my hands, carefully enough not to make any noise.She's going through a lot and I hated it, neither she nor the Alpha deserved this. They were good people, so why such a cruel fate?I sighed deeply and slowly slid down the wall, landing on the wall.Unfortunately, I winced when I cut myself with the penknife I kept on the tray."Who's that?!" Her voice spoke up."It's me, Luna!" I announced as I got up and slowly walked towards her with a forced smile. "I'm sorry I-""You heard me crying, didn't you?""I'm sorry..." I bowed my head down in shame. "You weren't aware when I got in and I suddenly heard you cryi

    ROBERTO"The Luna is pregnant," The doctor announced as he stood up. "However, there are signs of possible miscarriage, it would be best if she was to refrain from stress and such. Her body is weak so is her mind, a healthy mother is the only thing that can guarantee a good baby.""How long is she gone?""Alpha, I'd say a month. Early-stage pregnancies are easily prone to miscarriages, I'll bring over some drugs and drop a list of fruits and food she should eat, to prevent terrible news.""Thank you," That was the only word that could escape my lips, as he left. I sat on her bed, carefully stroking her hair.Mateo was outside her room, while Olivia and Landon were inside with me. "What do we do now?" Landon spoke up."Find my father and kill him. That's all we can do, Clara is pregnant, and now I have two important people to look after. Two souls that nobody should harm," I looked at him with a determined look."I'll find him, and end this so that my family and my people will be safe.

    CLARAI woke up feeling extremely tired, I looked down at myself and sighed when I realized I was still wearing my party dress.Still can't believe Storm's crowning ceremony and wedding were yesterday, still feels like a dream.I'm so happy for him! It's almost like it was me that those things were happening to.As I was about to get up, I let out a scream when I saw Mateo and Olivia right in front of my door, both of them had eyebags underneath their eyes, Olivia was leaning against the wall, while Mateo stood tall."What's going on?" I said, snapping them out of their thoughts and back to reality."Luna!" Olivia was the first to bow, followed by Mateo. "Good morning My lady," They said in unison."What's going on? Why are you guys in my room?""Uhmm..." Olivia scratched her head. "Last night..or would I say early this morning? The Alpha personally instructed that I would always be in your room, even when you're asleep.""Why?" I shot a brow up."He didn't say, my lady. I dare not q
