The Vengeful Luna Strikes Back Chapter 10
A smirk playing on his lips.Aster cleared his throat, prompting Darren to release my hand."Forgive my manners, Valeria," Darren said smoothly. "It's in our blood to misbehave when we meet a woman as beautiful and captivating as you."Despite myself, I smiled. Darren found me attractive. That was a bonus.Casper cleared his throat, casting a pointed look at his son."Don't you agree, Father?" Darren challenged. "Who would've thought Aster would choose someone like her? Classy, elegant, and beautiful—just the way we like our women.""He is my son, after all," Casper mused. "Why wouldn't he? Look at your mother, look at Thalia. Don't they both look amazing? And now Valeria. We know how to choose the right women."They laughed."Yeah, we sure do," Darren added.Aster squeezed my hand, his face glowing with the silent message: I told you they would love you."Shameless," Abigail scolded. "Stop embarrassing the poor girl." Then she turned to me. "Don't mind them. That’s just how my boys

“You couldn't help what?” I asked.Before he could answer, a voice called his name.“Darren, is that you?”He turned—and there stood Thaila. Once beautiful and perfect, she now looked pale and disheveled.“Thia, what are you doing downstairs?” Darren asked, pulling her into his arms.“I wanted some fresh air and thought I could step outside.” She turned to me briefly before shifting her gaze back to her husband.“Who is she?” she asked.“Oh, that’s Valeria—Aster’s fiancée,” Darren replied. Then, turning to me, he added, “Meet my wife, Thaila. She’s been having a hard time because of our baby.”“Nice to meet you, Thaila. And congratulations,” I said.&nb

ASTERWhen Freya said those words, I thought to myself—she never really knew my family. She called them great; I called them greedy monsters who would do anything for money, with no exceptions for anyone—except me.I don't want to raise my children under such influence. But I also don’t want to hurt Freya or condemn my family in front of her. She seemed to love them, and they loved her too. Let things stay that way until after the coronation—then I’ll find a reason to move her into the Alpha quarters with me."But I still want us to have our privacy," I said and she frowned."Don't worry it won't be now"“When?” she asked.“We won’t move out right away, maybe after the mating ceremony and coronation.”“But I don’t want to move out. I want to live with your family,” Freya insisted.There was something in the way she said it, that made me st

I took the last brownie out of the oven and placed it on the kitchen counter. Then, I dished out the vegetable salad I had made for myself along with fried chicken. On another plate, I served the white rice and sauce I had prepared for Ryder. Carefully balancing the tray, I carried the food to the table.Ryder had already finished setting up by the time I walked in. He helped place the plates down before heading back to the kitchen to grab two bottles of water.By the time he returned, I had already started eating."Can’t you wait for me?" he asked."Why would I? I’m starving, and you were taking too long.""I told you, starving yourself doesn’t suit you," Ryder said, shoveling a heap of rice into his mouth. "I mean, look at what you're eating—just to be something you’re not."I envied him. It wasn’t that I wasn’t allowed to eat rice, but I had consumed far too many calories in the past few days with Aster

FREYA"I'm done," Ryder said, picking up his plate and heading to the kitchen. I finished my meal and followed him after clearing the table. Once we were done washing the dishes, I followed Ryder to my office, where he kept his laptop.As soon as the device came to life, Ryder punched a few buttons, and what appeared on the screen left me in shock and amazement.On the screen was Linnet Shadow-Moon with Cornello—both naked on the bed, having sex. The video was explicit. Every moan was crystal clear, and Cornello’s filthy hands roamed over her smooth skin. I could hear Ryder moaning along with the old fool in the video. I smacked him hard on the back, and he chuckled."What? Aren't you enjoying the show?" he asked.I shot him a glare.He ignored me and continued, "No wonder the old fool couldn't get enough of her. That woman is incredible in bed. A

LINNETMy phone chimed, and I froze, afraid that Eric had heard it. I quickly grabbed it and hid it.Ever since Cornello started making his ridiculous demands, I had learned to keep my phone on silent, fearing he would call while I was with Eric.I thought killing Evelyn would make Eric love me—but it never did. I was the one who found him first, the one who fell in love with him first, but he chose my best friend over me.I met Eric in college. He was in his final year, while I had just enrolled. He was the most ruthless and feared Alpha in school. It was a prestigious institution meant for Alphas and the children of the wealthy elite.As a cheerleader, I had the opportunity to participate in various school activities, including sports competitions. That was how I first met Eric.He was the most popular guy on campus, the star of the school's cha

So, I invited Evelyn to a girls' night out. We partied until dawn. She thought it was a send-off celebration before her wedding. I had arranged everything—the venue, the guests, even the drinks.She never suspected a thing.I drugged her drink. When the effects kicked in, I lured her out of the house to my father’s hotel, far outside our pack’s territory.Once she was settled in one of the VIP rooms—rooms rarely used due to their cost—the men I had arranged entered. I handed them a bottle of poison and left them to do the rest.What I didn’t know was that Cornello had seen us entering the hotel that night.I had taken the back door of my house, parked my car in the backyard, and used a secret entrance at the hotel. I had planned every detail carefully to keep it a secret.But Cornello, that chronic womanizer, had been in on

LINNETThe next time you mention Evelyn with that filthy mouth of yours, I will rip out your tongue. I don't care what any of you think, but I made a promise to her. I must find her killer, and I will never spare them."As soon as Eric let go of me, I collapsed to the ground, coughing hard."Get ready. We're going to your pack this evening. Make sure you take everything you'll need," he said before shutting the door.Despite the pain in my neck and the ache in my heart, my mind was forced back to reality. Friday was only two days away—the day of my brother's coronation and the day I was supposed to hand over a hundred million dollars to an unknown person. My heart sank.Dragging myself up from the floor, I started packing. I couldn't afford to provoke Eric’s wrath again. I pulled down my large suitcase and shoved in my valuables. I needed to sell some of my things and pretend I didn't need them anymore. Thaila would help me find buyers.

The Vengeful Luna Strikes Back Chapter 51
“She has everything to do with this,” Darius hissed without looking back. He continued brushing his hand through the girl’s hair, his tone sharpening like a blade. “You came into our land. You threatened our people. You thought there’d be no consequences?”He gripped the back of the girl’s neck, wrenching a cry from her lips.“You fucker! Stop it!” Emos shouted, trying again to break free.But the ropes held.Darius turned his head slightly, his voice now thick with contempt. “You dared come here to hurt our daughters. And now you beg me to spare yours?” He shook his head. “Why should I show mercy when you showed none?”The two adult women and the the boy stood frozen in horror as Darius manhandled the girl, their eyes wide and helpless.Emos’s gaze darted around the room, frantic, desperate for help—anything that could turn the tide. But Miguel and Alex stood still, arms behind their backs and their expressions unreadable. No help would come from them.Defeated, Emos dropped his head

“Because,” I said coldly, “my man shattered your spine.”Darius grinned wickedly.Without wasting another word on him, he turned to the second man. This one was quieter, more composed, but clearly in pain. His dark hair was tied into a ponytail, and tattoos covered his broad chest and arms. His sharp blue eyes fixed on Darius with silent defiance.The brown-haired one started thrashing again, desperate and futile. Even paralyzed, he tried to fight. He pulled against the restraints until his energy finally drained and his body sagged forward in defeat.“Now that that’s over with,” Darius muttered.He dragged a chair across the room and positioned it directly in front of the man with the ponytail. Then he sat down, one leg crossed over the other, and leaned back, studying his prey like a predator deciding when to strike.“Do you know who I am?” he asked softly.The man said nothing, his jaw tight, teeth grinding in pain. He refused to look away, but he wasn’t speaking either. I’d dealt

“Then make them talk,” I thundered, slamming my hand down on the desk. “Don’t make me think you’re useless, Darius.”The words echoed in the small room like a threat, and the tension thickened. My glare sharpened, my eyes darkened with the weight of my power. A frosty energy rippled through the air, curling into the corners of the room like smoke.But Darius didn’t flinch.Not because he was defying me, but because something in my outburst sparked a memory—something from a life he once lived, a title he once bore. The shadows deepened, swallowing the light, and I felt a sweaty drip on my forehead despite the cold.He clenched his fists, jaw tight, teeth grinding with a sound that filled the heavy silence between us. For a moment, we stared at each other, locked in thought—me, simmering with barely restrained anger, and him, standing with quiet resolve.Then, slowly, a small smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, softening the tension like a sudden breeze.The darkness receded.And

I kissed her gently, her soft breaths growing steady as sleep claimed her. She curled around me like an octopus, wrapping herself around my body, drawing in my warmth as if it could chase away the ghosts of the night. I sighed, staring at the ceiling, the guilt settling deeper in my chest. I felt worse than I had before—worse than I deserved. Claiming her had been selfish, cruel even. And it had been her first time.Carefully, I slipped out of bed, unable to bear the weight of my guilt. My feet carried me toward the woods, blindly, instinctively, running until dawn began to stain the sky with pale light.I was just returning to my lounge, the chill of morning clinging to my skin, when Darius called. His voice was urgent. Our pack was under attack.This would be my first battle as Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack.Darius had been on patrol when he spotted the rogues. He’d rushed ahead to the scene and urged me to bring reinforcements. As I sprinted toward the pack house to arm myself, I ca
The Vengeful Luna Strikes Back Chapter 47
ASTERI looked at Valeria’s face as it battered in blood; her once smooth and flawless face turned brutal and masked with the blood of the rouge's, which made it look even more alluring. I wanted to touch her, to have her there and now, but she refused saying she was filthy. Did she know how intoxicating that word is? Yeah, I love my women filthy in every bedroom sense.Thinking of these, my heart clenched as I recall last night when she sat so close to my brother Darren. I can't stop feeling that she is drawn to Darren, or rather, Darren was drawn to her. Such thinking makes my heart clenched. When I came back home from the office last night and couldn't find her, I had to call her line more than twenty times. She left us at the hospital and rushed off, and I thought she was devastated because of Linnet's health condition and needed some time alone to process it, so I let her be, but when it passed midnight, and she wasn't home, I became worried and started calling her line. I

VALERIA My words must have caught Aster off guard. He stared at me for a beat, then a slow, dark smile crept onto his lips. His fingers grazed my cheek.“Alright then,” he murmured. “Let’s finish this.”He halted in front of a heavy steel door, punched in a string of numbers, and with a metallic click, the lock disengaged. The door swung open to reveal a private armory—walls lined with weapons, each one deadlier than the last. The room smelled of oil and blood, as if it had witnessed violence too often.Aster strode forward, selecting his gear with chilling efficiency. Guns, blades, explosives. War lived in his bones.“Take what you need,” he said, his voice low, urgent.I didn’t need to be told twice. I reached for the knives—long, silver, and razor-sharp. I’ve always preferred steel that sings when it meets flesh. There's something intimate about killing up close, about watching the light fade from your enemy's eyes. I strapped on as many as I could carry, changing swiftly into gear

By morning, my body ached in places I didn’t know could ache.Damn that wild animal. Aster had ravaged me in the most wicked way—and I had loved every second of it.The room was quiet when I woke, but he was gone. I forced myself out of bed and dragged my sore body into the bathroom. After a long shower, I returned to find breakfast waiting, delivered by the new chef, Enzo. I didn’t have the energy to face the Shadow Moons today.When Enzo returned to collect the tray, he handed me a folded note.It was from Thalia.“Meet me in my room in ten minutes.”I smirked. Little bitch, I thought, crumpling the paper and tossing it in the trash.Still, I decided to visit her before heading out to the pack house.Thalia was lounging on the couch sipping some nourishing herbal tea. Like ours, their suite had a separate sitting room, bedroom, private bathrooms, and even a mini kitchen.She looked up and smiled—calculated and fake.“Sit, Valeria,” she said sweetly. I obeyed, watching her carefully.

Darren recoiled instantly, pushing me gently aside as he rose to his feet. His eyes were wide—shock painted across his face.I didn’t have to turn to know who was behind us.Thalia.I wasn’t sure how long she had been standing there, but judging by the tight line of her lips and the distant flicker in her eyes, she'd heard more than enough. My stomach twisted—but not with guilt. Let her feel what I felt two years ago. The pain of betrayal.“Thalia?” Darren stammered, already moving toward her, his voice heavy with panic. “What are you doing here? Aren’t you asleep?”“I had a bad dream,” she murmured, stepping into his arms like she belonged there. “I woke up and couldn’t find you, so I came looking. I was about to head into the kitchen when I heard your voice… Valeria—is she okay?”Her voice trembled—just slightly. Enough to make her sound fragile, concerned and perfectly innocent.She was good.Too good for her acting.And Darren, ever the fool for her, bought it—like he always did.

"Are you really sending me away tonight? You're such a heartless brother-in-law.""You should have thought of that before trying to seduce me," Eric said coldly, walking into the house without sparing me another glance.I smiled faintly and turned toward my car. It was clear now—someone else was after Linnet. But who?When I arrived at the Shadow Moon mansion, the whole place was cloaked in silence. It looked deserted, the only signs of life being the guards stationed at the entrance. They nodded in greeting, and I returned the gesture before heading inside.Just as I stepped onto the staircase, I spotted Darren in the hallway. He appeared to be returning to his room but stopped when he saw me. He waited at the top of the stairs until I reached him.“Darren,” I called softly.“Valeria? What are you doing awake at this hour? Are you just getting back?”There was no point denying it. I sighed. “Yes. I went to see Eric. I wanted to know why he abandoned Linnet at such a critical time.”A
