THE MISJUDGED LUNA 37
"Are you okay?" Luna Brenda asked the girl who had finally decided to come out of her room and come to hers.She was amazed when Adrianna decided to speak up for Fredrick. She had not seen a girl as bold as Adrianna since after her days. Indeed, she could see a part of her in this girl named Adrianna.After breakfast, Adrianna went straight to her room to sleep. Luna Brenda thought the girl was refusing to open the door because she was angry but the truth was, Adrianna didn't open the door because she was sleepy and had already dove into the soft bed.She always feels sleepy whenever she eats oatmeal. She slept off till late around 2 pm. She had slept till that time because she didn't sleep well the night before"Luna Brenda, good afternoon. I am okay" she sat down on the bed before falling flat on her back with a smileEven though she has never entered Luna Brenda's room before, she felt safe and warm in her room"Luna, can I transfer to your room? I feel a kind of joy being in your

In the dim room, Roman stood beside the window as he spoke to someone over the phone.Roman was in the study having a conversation with Lucas. The man was in the human world arranging some things. Roman had called to ask when he would be backAlthough they had been discussing mainly business, sometimes, Roman was tempted to tell him what was going on with him and the two girls. Lucas would understand better.He has missed the man so much, at this point, he is confused and doesn't know what to do anymore. Lucas was one person that could help him get it right if he ever was wrong.Roman still doesn't understand why his wolf keeps screaming in his head that Adrianna was his mate when he knew it was Dianne. His body and mind only accept Adrianna and his mother seems to like the lady as well. What would Lucas say of her?Roman had not been in his right state of mind since the argument that happened this morning. He had not taken sides with any of them but he didn't know why he was still bo

In anger, Dianne marched to Adrianna's room. She knew she was supposed to calm down and take this calmly since she has already planned the girl's death but she couldn't help it, she was so angry she wanted to pour her anger on herWhen she got to Adrianna's room, she barged into the room only to find it empty. She called and called as she searched everywhere for the girl but Adrianna was not in her roomAgain, she matched out of the room,"You better be gone because if I find you, I'll strangle you to death" she murmured as she marched out of the houseShe doesn't want Roman to know that she was angry. She has already planned how she wanted to convince Roman to tell Adrianna to come with her to the woods.Dianne knew she can't make any wrong moves now. Roman can't know that she knows all that happened back in the human world and Adrianna can't also know that she knows.When she wants to kill Adrianna, she would tell her and finish her off. As she made her way into the wood, she called

Dianne's eyes darkened when she noticed that Adrianna wasn't scared. This girl kept developing some annoying courage that she wanted to destroy."Are you here to join us to cook?" Adrianna asked her.Dianne turned to look at Fredrick whose hands were already shaking due to fear. Adrianna did not see this but Dianne did. She faces Fredrick instead"Oh, we brought guests into the house and all you could do was ask her to cook with you. Don't you have a single respect?"Before Fredrick could reply, Adrianna did,"You don't worry about me. I was the one who insisted, Dianne""What is going on here?" Luna Brenda asked. Immediately Dianne passed her, she could feel her heart troubled. She had come here to check on Adrianna and yes, Dianne was here as usual causing trouble. Indeed, the girl was trouble"Mother, Mr. Fredrick, and I were cooking dinner when Dianne came. I don't know what's wrong with cooking dinner" Adrianna pouted.Dianne's eyes widened when she heard Adrianna call the Luna,

"Roman?" Adrianna peeped in only to see Roman sleeping on the desk. She raised a brow before quietly entering the study.'Did he work himself to sleep?' She wondered as she walked over to his tableAdrianna stared at his face, Roman had his eyes closed with his lips a little bit apart. She observed from his brows down to his long lashes then the bridge of his nose down to his lips. Pink soft lips that she was tempted to touch.She was staring at the same lips that she had kissed three times already. Those lips tasted as sweet as honey. As she stared at them she wondered how it would feel if she could just bite and chew on his lower lip which was so soft and pinkAdrianna swallowed before bending down to face him. His hair covered a small part of his face so the girl carefully took it off his face before caressing his hair.'He must be really tired to sleep so deep, he wasn't even shaking or waking up' She said to herself.Adrianna's eyes moved quickly down to his lips as she wondered

During dinner, Roman's face was as stony as the stone itself. He was so angry that Adrianna knew a lot about Fredrick. This was exactly what he was trying to avoid.He would have scolded her but now he can't because his mom was involved. He wondered when they had gotten to know each other so much that they were already talking about their best foods and birthdaysRoman felt left out but he refused to leave even after dinner. He would make sure Adrianna enters her room and locks her door before he would leave her. He would have to speak to his mother about it because of what was going onIf his mom had just told Adrianna that indeed royalties were not allowed into the kitchen then none of this would have happened. Now Adrianna is not only going to cook with him, but she is also now even instructing him to sit with her in the dining"It's time for everyone to go to bed," he said before standing to his feet"Oh okay," Luna Brenda stood up before wishing them all a good night."Adrianna,

"I do not understand you mother. What are you talking about?" Roman asked with a frownWhen did he order someone to be tortured? It has been so long that he couldn't even remember it.Luna Brenda did not keep her mouth shut. She promised to make Roman apologize to Adrianna. she knew how it is in jail and then adding torture to it, and she could understand clearly now why the girl ran away in the first place.Late that night, Luna Brenda told Roman everything that Adrianna had told her about how she had been tortured and starved of food. She also told Roman that she was disappointed in the man because she never expected that he could do something like that to his subject or someone that looked exactly like his wifeRoman stood there in shock. He has specifically instructed the guards not to harm her. He had asked for her to be interrogated only and for them not to torture her. Now, he blamed himself for not going to check on her while she was in prison"Mom, I promise you, I never knew

After a while, Dianne calmed down. Roman kept caressing her shoulder down to her back"Come on, dear. Can you tell me what happened? Was it that scary?"Dianne nodded before shifting, "It's Adrianna"Roman froze when he heard Dianne call Adrianna's name. He wondered if perhaps the moon goddess had appeared in her dream to tell her of what happened at the study.Dianne held Roman's shirt,"I… she… I couldn't tell her that she was my sister. We both separated and I wasn't able to tell her that we were both sisters" her cry increased again causing Roman to wonder what actually was making her cry"Dianne, if that it is, you should be happy that Adrianna has not separated from you yet. Go and tell her that you both are sisters"Dianne shook her head, "I can't. Adrianna doesn't like me. She wouldn't even want to talk to me if I asked her to. She hates me so much already""There is always a way," Roman said to her.It is true that she and Adrianna always had clashes but he knew Adrianna had

“You did what?”Asher sighed. His Beta’s jaws was currently hanging off the floor. He had known Victor would strongly oppose, known also that Elise was one of the few creatures on this earth that managed to unnerve the life out of him. The woman creeps Asher out too, and once, maybe he’d liked the dangerous and sexy type. But he was literally a married man now and the only reason Elise would be coming to the pack was so that she can help find Kihara.“You invited her here? Are you mad?” Victor continued loudly.“Keep your voice down okay,” Asher hushed. “You know Victor, that we’ve been doing this ourselves for a while and failing. We need help, and she’s the best help we can get.”Victor shook his head, the look of horror on his face still not clearing. “Of course she’s the best Asher, she’s a fucking bounty hunter, hired killer, assassin,” Victor counted on his fingers, his eyes seemingly widening each time he dropped a finger. “And a fucking were-snake Asher, let’s not forget about

Twilight pack had gradually declined to a somber graveyard in the absence of it’s Luna. The halls bleak and lacking of color, every wolf felt the same bleakness inside of them, as though an emptiness had been carved in their hearts. More cruel was that they had no idea what to do. To mourn their Luna? For if she was dead, then that was the right thing to do. Or to hope? To dare look up to the moon and hope that she was still alive and that one day she would be returned? It did not seem likely, but it was a possibility they were willing to entertain. For their alpha, he needed it, needed that hope. That was all he ran on.Hunting down Sebastian had never become more primary than now. Asher has men combing every nook and cranny of this town. He was sure that one day, he would hit the jackpot and one of those searches would unlock the villains hiding place. He did not need to search for long however, it seemed that the villain was done hiding.It was early morning when it happened. Asher

“Please,” The prisoner begged, “You don’t have to do this.”Asher’s eyes burned. Why could he not do this? His mate was stolen from him, why did he not deserve to at least transfer his rage to this man who had helped make it happen.“I’ll talk, anything you want, I promise.” The whimpered, his voice pitchy and breathy.Asher paused in his steps. “Then start talking, and fast.”The man nodded furiously, his body visibly deflating with relief. “Where is Sebastian?” Asher asked coolly, the hammer hanging casually by his side.The fear was back in the man’s eyes. He looked up at Asher, his gaze with utter defeat, as he shook his head,“No?” Asher’s eyebrows twitched with impatience.“I really don’t know. I swear.” The man whimpered, voice so shaky it was barely comprehensible.“If you don’t know, then you’re not at all useful to me.” Asher growled lowly.The man fell to his knees. “We were hired randomly. They promised to take care of our families if we died for this, kill them if we didn

TRIGGER WARNING: Themes of torture mentioned below.)Brody found him first, in the thicket where he had chosen to bleed out his feelings. He felt like a broken man and no words needed saying as Brody looked over Asher. It was obvious that he’d not found Kihara, that he had failed in protecting his mate and now she was in the hands of a moon cursed wolf.“Come on Alpha, we’ll find her another day.” Brody said. Just not today, Asher thought. How was it acceptable that he came here with his mate and has to leave without her? How is it acceptable that she remains in that man’s lair, dead or alive for even a day?Brody helped Asher up and walked him back the way he’d come, until they broke out of the woods and unto the road. Asher’s leg was still bleeding but not as profusely as earlier and the pain of the wolf’s bane was also fading. Asher missed that pain, it was more merciful than the clenching and unclenching of his heart. This ache and this utter feeling of emptiness that was evading
THE MISJUDGED LUNA 86
Asher felt it rather than saw, from the distance of a still forming mate bond, his mate’s distress. He looked up, and that was when he saw the man that had introduced himself as Ajax with his mate. He’d knocked Kihara out and now she lay cold and unconscious in his arms. A growl tore through the air and earth. Asher’s eyes shivered with emotion, fear and anger. Ajax looked over his shoulders at him, and for once, that unsmiling, unfeeling face dissolved with a smile. He’d won.Without time to waste, and with Kihara in his arms, Ajax ran off the roads and into the mountains. His mate weighed nothing in his arms, and was hardly an inconvenience, or deterrent to his speed. Asher screamed with fury, the panic traveling up his throat, clogging his airways. The men charged at him and he swiped and stabbed at every single one of them, not holding back his strengths. He needed to get to Kihara; the only thought that rang loud in his head. He couldn’t let Ajax have her, knowing where he was t
THE MISJUDGED LUNA 85
Ajax’s men drew their weapons, axes and blades glinting in the air like the shine of cruel death. Leila turned to Kihara hastily. “Whatever you do, you’ll stay with me okay?” Kihara nodded, her hands tightening on her gun. I have this, she thought to herself, she ought to be fine. Asher from a few feet away glanced back at them quickly, he shared a look with Brody and Leila and they seemed to understand a they both nodded. To kihara, his eyes softened and seemed to tell, ‘be safe.’ Kihara nodded at him. She did not plan to let any of these men get close to her.And they were a lot of them. They were beyond outnumbered. The men were ordinary humans, and against a dozen well trained wolves were like an army of ants, but ants that they were, they crawled towards them from every angle, swarming in as if they could choke off the air. The men were way more than preoccupied in a few seconds, battling claws with blades and axes. The wailing sound of men broke through the peaceful mountainous

Sebastian listened quietly the messenger, a drink in his hand illuminating the colorful swirl of candlelight it captured. The messengers words echoed softly through his ear drums. After the man was done, Sebastian nodded. “You’re dismissed.”The man backed out of the room, his legs were about to cross the threshold when Sebastian called. “Don’t go back to the woods Jerry. I doubt that our boy will be anymore useful after today.”***Everything was set for their journey to Ever-moon. Transportation and envoy and the gifts Kihara had prepared for ever-moon waited downstairs while the Alpha couples exchanged swift words with each other.“You know why I worry Kihara, it is dangerous.” Asher was saying, the veins in his temples bulging as he emphasized on the word dangerous. Kihara was having none of it as she stood glaring at him with her hands crossed above her chest. ‘I don’t see how that is an issue.” They had had this conversation last night, and the night before, still, Asher was in

Kihara had never been to the pack dungeon. She was not even aware that a place like such existed, but as it turned out, the underground bunker was not the only thing underground. The dungeon was built a bit off ways from the pack, the only thing that lead to it was well like construction with stairs. The dungeon wasn’t well kept, unlike many areas of the pack, because it was hardly used. Asher told kihara the last time it had been opened, it was used by his father, and now him, to lock up Justin.Kihara climbed down the narrow stairs that led down to the dungeon with her heart feeling heavy and in her throat, Asher right behind her. At the bottom of the stairs, the dungeon opened up to9 a big musty space. The air was hot and drier around here. Directly in the middle of the room, two iron cages sat beside each other, and Justin sat in one, on a stool, his hands and knees bound. The cages looked ordinary to Kihara, there was no reason why they should be able to hold a werewolf, Kihara w

Kihara’s honeymoon lasted three nights. Three good nights of no worries, three nights of forgetting that there was even anything to be worried about. It ended too quickly for her liking, but they needed to get back to their duties, and Kihara needed to start hers. The bodies they found in the woods had been buried properly. In the days Kihara and Asher remained completely indoors, the only time they opened their doors was to receive food, and in their absence, Victor had taken charge. He’d put off alerting human authorities about the bodies in the woods and for good reason. No human police would not believe that the work had been done by a pack of werewolves. It’d be like putting handcuffs on their own wrists and walking to the police station to be locked behind bars, not that any police bar or handcuff could hold a werewolf. Apart from burying the bodies, there were many other issues. The pack had grown hesitant of stepping outside pack house boundaries. Members who had human jobs
