CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVMy hands were still trembling as I was already standing in the center of the stage, despite knowing that I wasn't alone since both Kris and Siege were together with me. I faked a cough to clear my throat before I held onto the microphone.I introduced myself and told the crowd about my past. There was nothing that I could hide from them, and I had no intention to do so. I told them how I first got to know about Siege and also the fact that I wasn't really born into this realm.However, realizing that the crowd didn't care much about my relationship with Siege, I chose to change the subject to something between me and Kris instead."Beta Kristoffer Wong has always been with me since the beginning, especially during the times that I was feeling lost," I mumbled, placing my clenched fist in front of my chest to make my speech a little bit emotional. "I never expected that Beta Kristoffer Wong would be as kind as an angel. I'm certain that all of you know how rut
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVMy entire surroundings felt like they were spinning, and my vision was still blurry as my head felt like it was about to burst out. I don't remember that I had any drinks yesterday, and I can't even recall anything at all.Upon my first attempt to stand up, I completely failed, as I lost my balance because of how both of my legs were tied up, as well as my feet and wrists. There were a lot of ropes that were tangled around my whole body, and it made me immobilized."I see that you're finally awake, Celestina. If I were you, I wouldn't move much since I'd just be wasting my damn energy. Those ropes were tightly tied on you, and there's no way that you can untie it all by yourself," a man spoke, and I can't even see where the person was hiding himself.I almost froze when he threw ice-cold water on me, causing me to flip my body around the floor. "Who are you, and why are you doing this to me? Don't you know who I am?" I asked, even though I wasn't confident tha
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVI initially believed that Celeste would be shifting with me as soon as Leo leaves the Silver Moon Pack's basement cells, but she didn't. My wolf urged me to wait for the person who was rushing to come to find me. Deep down, I'm hoping that it will at least be Siege. And if not, let it be Ice.I can't face Lucas at this point, since I know that he would be bursting in anger upon realizing that I turned my back on him. He will definitely think that I only used and treated him as an option, and now that I have such a great opportunity for me to come back to the Crimson Moon Pack, I might end up leaving him behind for good."Celestina, where are you?" A man was calling me from outside, and the next minute, I heard endless knocks on the door. "Are you there? Call out my name or at least say anything!" He screamed, and judging from his voice, I knew that it was the person I hated to see at this moment."Lucas!" I yelled out as loudly as I could. "I'm here, Lucas!"
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVMy perception of the personalities of everyone residing within this realm began to change. There was no purpose in relying on what they've been showing me lately since they can easily change how they act towards me.And upon those realizations, I've come to the conclusion that I can only possibly rely on either Ice or Siege, since they are the only people who I've really been with for years, and I highly doubt that they will also betray me, even if the time comes that they're in a pinch and only have the choice to attack me behind my back."Don't resist, Celestina. You'll only be hurting yourself if you try to fight with us. You do know that if you fight, you'll end up dead because it's going to be two versus one, right?" Lucas mumbled, forcing me to go with him inside the house of the beta.I seriously believed that Lucas had no clue about Leo's whereabouts before, since he told me that Leo didn't pay him a visit, not even once. Seeing him drag me in there m
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVIt has been a couple of minutes since I've been trying to fight back against the same man who had a strong lust in his eyes. There was no way out for me in this small room. There wasn't even any window, which I could've possibly used."Stop moving around, lady. Stay silent and don't resist. I'll make sure that we will finish quickly if you stay put. However, I can't guarantee that you wouldn't ask for a second round after you've had a taste of the first one," the man suddenly started to speak.I grunted as I furrowed my eyebrows as I continuously attempted to break his bones from his hands, but they kept on growing thicker. I can't tell if it's his muscles or if it's his fat."Were you paid by Leo to do this to me?" I asked him, even if I wasn't sure if I'd even get a real response. I was just buying time for myself to think about how to get out of this mess.He looked sideways, letting me think that the beta didn't have to buy him off to do this. I think tha
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVIt's not that I have no other choice left. Deep down, I was really waiting for the time that Siege would end up breaking in between my pledge with Kris, and that was the main reason why I paused and hesitated before.I nodded my head. "You should also promise the same thing. I don't care anymore if you've really gotten Stella pregnant; just get her out of the Crimson Moon Pack. I want to be your Luna, and I can't bear seeing my sister taking my spot," I said, which came out of my mouth instead of letting it be said through our mind-link.Siege placed his hand above my head, slowly ruffling my hair, saying that I was beautiful. It was the first time for me to hear him call me beautiful now that I'm a grownup. I know that Siege endlessly called me pretty when we were kids, but I never took it seriously since we were still young back then.He moved away from me, telling me to stand still at the corner and let him handle things with Lucas and Leo. I kept on remin
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVEven after all of those provocations that I gave Leo, I still have no concrete plan on how I can possibly take someone as strong as him down. However, despite the difference in our strengths, I still have the will to fight back because of the moral support that I'm getting from Siege. And besides, he's also in a bind because of Lucas.I never imagined that these two would actually team up and yearn to defeat us, since all along, I seriously believed that Lucas wasn't on good terms with Leo. And it's now making me wonder if Ice was also on the same side as his alpha and beta, or if he had a different mindset than the two."When are you going to stop this farce? I'm getting exhausted from all of these; I just want to live a peaceful life; can't you at least grant me that?" I asked, which was followed by a loud sigh. "I don't deserve to experience all these, do I? I mean, I wasn't even born here; what right do you have to make me suffer like this?" I added to ma
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVThe aura that emitted from Siege was bursting with intense bloodlust, even though he was still not shifted to his wolf form. In each step that he made towards Lucas and Leo, he was glowing in a mixture of a dark and crimson aura."Give me Celestina's pendant back, Leo. I'll give you three seconds to hand it to me," Siege seriously mumbled. He wasn't even looking at any of them, and despite watching them from behind, I can see how Siege was only glancing at his feet."Oh, is this what you're after?" Leo showed him the pendant, waving it in front of his face to force Siege to look at it.The beta of the Silver Moon Pack attempted to break the pendant, but he was unsuccessful in every attempt he made. I couldn't help but smirk upon witnessing how much he humiliated himself in front of Siege because of that failure.I guess Sarina was still on my side after all."You thought that you were being protected by the Moon Goddess?" Siege scoffed, finally raising his he
