THE LUNA BRIDE FROM TOMORROW CHAPTER 57
After that day, when Reagan came to see me to tell me about his new lead, I just couldn't help but wonder what could possibly be hidden behind the secrecy of Julius Silverstone's property on South Shore Drive. I had asked Klen and Taylor to come along with me because I was aware that my thoughts would be unable to move past this situation if I did not have any information regarding the property. I explained to them that I needed to look at a property that belonged to my late father in South Shore and that I needed to do so as soon as possible. Initially, Klen was a little hesitant to trust me on this matter; however, after I told them that the two of them could come along with me, Taylor and Klen both ended up allowing me to leave anyway. Once again, I was accompanied by a large number of security personnel as was to be expected. It is very difficult to move around, especially when a lot of eyes are watching my every move. This makes it even more difficult. But I couldn't leave th

It never occurred to me that one of the people I would run into here, or even come dangerously close to colliding with the vehicle of my security team, would be Henry..He was also taken aback when he saw that he had come dangerously close to colliding with the car that was serving as the vanguard for my security detail. I had no choice but to react quickly to the predicament and check on him to see if he was okay. It was too late for Klen to even try to stop me from running because I quickly ran away from him before he could grab my hand to try to slow me down.I quickly positioned myself outside Henry's window to check on him and offer assistance..“Oh my goodness, Henry. I'm worried about you; how are you feeling? Is there anything else wrong with you, or does any part of your body hurt?" I immediately inquired of him while attempting to look him over thoroughly.Henry had a hard time finding the words to express how he felt, particularly after seeing me instantly standing next to

It took me quite a while before I came to realize that Henry had been waiting for my answer for a while now. For a little more while, I just looked at him and I can’t help but wonder whether I will decline him to come with me or not. However, since this is actually my first time going to South Shore, I don’t think that bringing him along isn’t a bad idea at all knowing that he sounded like he had been there several times.Which is why I immediately answered him with a beam on my face that was then followed with, “Of course, I think I would really need someone who could tell me about being around there.”Although, I didn’t really anticipated his response when he told me, “Afraid to be lost again?”I just chuckled at the silly jokes of him. “Silly. But I don’t think I’ll ever get lost there, especially now that you’re coming with us.”Henry stood proudly after he heard my praise for him. He doesn’t even look too arrogant for me. The way he showed it to me appears more playful than that

Has fate been so cruel to me that even though I really don’t wish to see some negative vibes, fate still just keeps on showering for some more?I never thought that I would actually get to see him since I believe that Henry said that he was running some errands for him. It never occurred to me that what he meant by errand earlier was that he’d been instructed to find a drink for Dmitri.Yes, that freaking Dmitri. He dared to actually ask Henry to get him a drink while they were in South Shore and far away from any nearby convenience mart. Just when I really thought he was running some really important matters only to find out this.Dmitri sure can really be annoying in every way possible that even something like this just made me instantly harbor an ill feeling towards him again. I really am not planning to head where he is, but since the number of security men from behind me isn’t something that won’t attract any attention, I knew that Dmitri would certainly notice me right away.An
THE LUNA BRIDE FROM TOMORROW CHAPTER 61
Dmitri may have said it clearly before my face that this property we’re currently stepping on is now his, but that still doesn’t register in my mind as the real thing. I am still trying to figure out how it exactly happened.There has got to be some kind of mistake here which made things become how it is now. I don’t understand why would Julius Silverstone even give this property to the likes of Dmitri?There are some suggestions running inside my head right now and sure thing that those were not really favorable for Dmitri knowing that what I am actually thinking is that he could have counterfeited some documents to make him the new owner.Although I really can’t just go with that claim particularly since I don’t even have any evidence to prove myself. Aside from that, I don’t even have the land title certificate which would prove that Julius is still the owner of the property.I really am not the type who would go fight to the death just for land properties. If necessary, i’ll just

They talk about me being the last heir as if they knew a great deal about Claudette, which is something that I don't even know about myself. In the end, all I did was simply look at them while maintaining a perplexed expression on my face. It was necessary for me to start playing the amnesia card with them because I had no idea what they were talking about in the first place. It would appear that both Taylor and Klen were successful in discovering the fact that it is indeed difficult for me to provide them with an answer. After Logan had told me that, Taylor came out from behind me immediately to explain the situation to the couple. I guess the two of them immediately noticed that perhaps the reason I can't remember is because I have that so-called amnesia. "Please accept my apologies for interrupting your conversation so abruptly, but I'm afraid that our miss Claudette won't be able to grasp what it is that you are trying to tell her." Taylor explained. I reached for her hand an

Following the sudden entrance of the red wolf, everyone beyond it made a quick stop before heading in my direction. The rest of them were also shocked and terrified by the sudden appearance of the creature.Who would actually believe that they all existed, not unless the rest of them belonged to pacts such as the blue moon and the silver moon pacts. However, looking at the expressions on their faces, most of the security personnel seemed to be having their first hand experience of witnessing a werewolf right in front of their eyes.The red werewolf was growling very low, but I can feel that the vibrations of its growl indicates harm. I don’t know where this werewolf came from. But somehow I just couldn’t help but find it strange that a werewolf this large would come out of here.Whoever this werewolf be, I still couldn’t find peace to be anywhere near him or her. I am still not certain whether this werewolf is on my side or just a foe who wanted to take me down on his own.Perhaps it

I have never been this scared my entire life. Seeing the angry-looking red werewolf right in front of me, I can only hold on to the hem of my blouse while trying to control the shaking of my entire body out of fear.The scare that this red werewolf right in front of me is already giving me enough goosebumps, not to mention how ferociously looking are its canine teeth that were peeking to see me as well.I don’t understand why this werewolf suddenly came quickly to catch me just when I thought that he saved me back there from my own security guards who were also chasing after me.Perhaps, I may have been overthinking that this werewolf could actually have the sympathy over my situation. I mean if it were even in its human form, I highly doubt it would help me out from my obstacle.I could only believe that perhaps it wasn’t really its intention to save me from them. I mean, what else could I expect from some whom I don’t even know.Suddenly, I just couldn’t shake off the feeling that

Now that sounds really suspicious. But I know I can’t just argue with her about it. Taking that step might just make her harm me or take back the antidote from me. I have to pretend like everything is okay from my end.In this situation I am in, I have to make it appear before Magindara’s eyes that I totally agree with her suggestion. Somehow, there are points from her statement that really do convince me but a greater picture doesn’t deny me the intuition that she might be trying to take me in as tool for her ulterior motive.I don’t know what it really is but I have to be vigilant and ready about it. Ready in a sense that I at least could handle the situation even if I am not aware what kind of battle that I am about to face here.“I’ll see what I can do.” I just replied.I believe that would be the safest thing to say for now.“Do you have any other question so far?” Magindara asked me. I wonder why she suddenly came up with that question.Did she find or somewhat noticed it from m

“Nothing that involves you or Florante.” I told him that shut him up quickly.This time, I didn’t wait for Leandro to act on my request to withdraw the troops away from Magindara. And so, I yanked my head to their direction and yelled, “All of you! Lower your weapons and withdraw from her at once!”“You can’t do that, Miss Emalia.” Leandro tried to protest.“And why can’t I?” I retort back.“Because I am the one leading them, Miss Emalia.”“Very well.” I said with full pride facing the troops, I then added, “As your master’s bride, I also hold the highest command alongside your master. Deny me of this and you shall be severely punished by your master.”And it was like a fearing statement, all the troops begin to withdraw from Magindara and not even Leandro was able to stop that.Magindara still hasn’t remove her barrier but I saw on her face that she is convinced that I did this so that we’re somewhat even for keeping me alive. I nod at her as I make my exit from the cave.As the gua

It makes me feel regretful though but a tinge part of me has become quite the curious as to how the image from the translucent pearl just keep on showing Florante when I am so focused to see my mother?My inquisitive thoughts have been rattling me once again and this just makes me frustrated as I know I won’t set myself aside without trying to know the reason why. But apparently, it seems that Magindara doesn’t have the answers for me as well and this bugs me.“I feel bad for this but do you still wish to try it again?”Though deep down within me says I would prefer to, I think it would be better off if I won’t pursue trying again. It’s kind of scary trying again and then Florante will just be the end result of it.And so I told her, “No. We’ve done it twice already. If it’s not meant for me then it’s okay, but what I just don’t understand it that, why does it keep on showing Florante no matter how I try to concentrate to see my mother? Do you perhaps know a deeper thought about it?”

After handing over the small flask of my tears to her, Magindara went to her drawers and drop in some kind of a blue liquid into before she heads back in front of the translucent pearl once more.“Come closer. Now, as I drop your tears into the pearl, I want you to envisage the moment you wish to see.” She told me.It will be quite difficult for me to try and picture it out since it was the day I was born. I have zero recollection about it except for the stories that my dad often tells me.I wonder how on earth will I start creating such image in my head. But as Magindara head on to drop the liquid on the pearl, I quickly had to concentrate and think deeply about that moment when I was born. I could use my baby images to help me concentrate and it appears that it is working.The translucent pearl is beginning to glow and I couldn’t hide my excitement that I’ll finally get to see the image of my biological mother after twenty-seven long years.Even though Magindara has stop from singi

The beauty of the silver clam boasted as it spread itself open before us. It revealed a shiny pearl inside.“This is a translucent pearl. It can give you a mirror to reflect anything you wish to see from the present and past.”Could that pearl really be that powerful enough to see anything from the past?“Will I be able to see someone from the past even if I hadn’t got the chance to know them?”“Well, the pearl never misses anything the water could see.”“There is someone I’d like to see. Could it be possible thought…I wonder.”“Do you have anyone in mind you met while you are anywhere near bodies of water?” Magindara asked.I’m not sure if it’s okay to tell her a weak side of me. But I’ve been yearning to see an image of my mother. I wonder for real, if doing this will give me the chance to see her even for a short while.“I’m not sure. The last time I was with her was when I was born. My father says she died giving birth to me.”“I’m sorry about that but it seems like we have no oth

“You came back here for the purpose of knowing the truth. But your appearance in this era has made quite some changes in the present time without your knowing.” Magindara stated. She glides her way towards rock formation that resembles a cellar.Magindara gestured me to follow her and I followed. It’s such a surprise that I actually don’t find it scary following her. For some reason, I am just too confident or was it more like I find it normal.It never came into my mind that I am inside an enemy’s lair and a mythical creature that could easily harm me. was this boost of confidence because of the other half of the orient pearl residing inside of my chest?I held into my chest and tried to scrub it gently, I wanted to feel the pearl inside of me but when I find myself looking weird, I immediately stop.Magindara and I stop when we reach the ground where a lot of jars are kept. From different sizes and colors. The whole place appears like Magindara’s secret laboratory for me. I didn’t k

“Did you even try to talk to him again?” I asked. For some unexplainable reason, I really didn’t understand why on earth did I asked that. Was I really trying to torment myself further? I guess so.Magindara just looks at me with a serene face and answered, “A lot of chances came to me but I never push through.”My brow wasn’t able to control itself from rising up as I followed up to ask, “But why didn’t you?”There, Magindara just smiled shyly, “I came to the point of asking myself, if I ever ask for forgiveness and he forgive me. Then the two of reconcile, what would happen if Aman Sinaya will return and ask for the same question again. I’m scared that my loyalty for Aman Sinaya will only make Florante hate me too much that he would rather kill me to death than see me alive.” She said back.I wanted to strangle her. Deep in my thoughts I wish I could just slap her for once but who am I to do that even if I am Florante’s fiancé.Magindara is bound in her faithfulness towards Aman Sin

“Florante saved me once. When some fisherfolks tried to hunt me down, Florante came to my aid and wash them out using the tidal waves. I owe him my life, so I told myself that I would love him and care for him…”Hearing those lines from Magindara stiffen my nerves. This impulse is making me crazy. I am now being consumed by the jealous frenzy. And the feeling just got more intensified when Magindara added saying, “…and I was happy that Florante noticed me and my affection for him. Perhaps it was because he was longing for someone to value and take care of him that’s why he finally noticed me. For quite some time, I stayed in his dome and had the vision of being wed to him. I know it came to his mind that he would ask me to be his wife but something came up.”The sudden turn of events from statement made me more curious. I just have to find the right words to make it sound from my end as if I was just less interested yet at the back of my head, I am so eager to know.And so, I asked, “

There I realize that maybe that was the bargain they made for their only child. That in exchange for their child to live, they have to offer even their own lives. It’s a very noblest thing for his parents to sacrifice at such extent.I feel all the pain that the young Florante is currently experiencing right now as I see him nestled himself on the ground wailing in tears. I can read through the movement of his mouth how he tries to call for his parents but since they were stoned, apparently the poor boy won’t be able to receive the response he was yearning to hear from them.“In exchange for the boy to live longer, his parents made a deal with the sea God. They will offer their lives to be used as auxiliary life source so that Amanikable could transfer his mentala to the young boy. Florante’s state was so fragile that if it’s not done that way, Florante might not be able to handle to amount of mentala inside his body that he will soon perish to death quicker than they could even imagi
