All Chapters of BORN TO BE A LUNA: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

"What's your plan now?" Natasha asked.Nicholas puffed his cigarette and looked around. Aria left him two years ago. He can't, however, blame the woman. He hurt her, even if it wasn't on purpose. So when she left, he let her go, stopping himself from finding her, giving Aria enough time to heal the wound he gave.It was late when he realized he had made a huge mistake by seeking vengeance and wasting his time with her. He was so preoccupied with his plans that he took the woman for granted. So when Aria fled, a rush of enlightenment washed over him, causing him to experience a slew of feelings he had never experienced before—emotional torture.Nicholas realized how much he adored her. Not because they were fated, but because her understanding had planted roots in his heart. When she discovered his secrets, lies, and malicious intent, she stayed and kept her word. He didn't.Years of suffering with his broken heart and angry wolf, where booze had become his companion so that he could

Aria's POVYesterday's encounter with Mysha was not pleasant, but thankfully Luke is still sane enough not to cause trouble. He calmed Mysha, and the latter relaxed, enough for us to depart. If not, chaos will reign supreme because of her rage."Aria..."I stared lazily at the bedroom door that had just opened, through which Nicholas had entered. We're not completely fine. But I have no choice but to swallow my pride. So we made some concessions. I returned to the pack, but not on his life—hence the separate bedroom."Yes?" He coughed up. "Lunch is ready downstairs; let's eat."I nodded. There was no place for me to be stubborn about these little details. Nicholas is trying to reach out to me in many ways, but something inside of me isn't ready to risk another possible heartbreak. He's made it apparent that he wants me back, it's just that I'm scared.That horrific recollection is what is holding me back. It reduced my ability to weigh things. It makes me question everything that ha

Aria's POVThe meeting was cut short due to Luna Beatrice's temper tantrums. Nicholas can't forced Alpha Dony to return so that they can continue what they're talking about."Should we go see the cityscape?" he inquired.We were heading back to Red Moon around five o'clock. I'm not sure what Nicholas' plan is, but he mentioned the cityscape. Perhaps because it's almost night and the light there is excellent."It all depends on you; what are your plans?"I'm game for anything he wanted to do. Aside from the fact that we only go out from the pack on rare occasions, this could be a nice time to decompress."Let's unwind there for awhile," he said.True enough, we went directly to the city and reserved a table at one of the city's tallest restaurants. We are presently on the rooftop, from which we can overlook the entire neighborhood. This place reminds me of Antohollan; I've never been there at night, but I imagine it looks exactly like this at night. The magnificent streetlight embelli

Aria's POVI was so taken aback by Natasha's words early in the morning that I didn't have time to shower, brush my teeth, or even get dressed. I followed her in my pajamas to the packhouse, where all of the officials were already dressed in war gear. They look like royal armies ready for battle, whilst I am completely unprepared. My form right now was so out of place."How did you know my sister was coming?" I asked Nicholas, who was perched on his seat.Despite the fact that Mysha and I do not get along as siblings. Maybe she thought of me as a stranger by now. Hurting her feels like a second regret that I'll have to live with for the rest of my life. My parents' demise made me realize how important family is. I can't face the idea that something horrible will happen to her."Our Crescentius spy delivered us a message," he explained.He had planted a spy in Crescentius? How could I have missed that? "Why do you have a spy there?"A gust of doubt hustled through my nascent trust in

Aria's POVI was drifting off into space, recalling what had just transpired. Things had quickly gotten out of hand. I'm not sure how to respond to all of the thoughts racing through my mind. It's commendable that the Elder acted fast and dispatched someone to address the disagreement. They also clarified what transpired in the past and cleared up any confusion. And Mysha was mistaken; our parents duped her into believing their lies, which she did.Our parents' previous attack on Rojo La Luna was laced with jealousy and threat. The reason they claimed Nicholas's parents were hiding in the rogue, even though they weren't."Are you okay?" Nicholas asked, sliding his hand on my stomach, hugging me from behind.I sighed before nodding. The trace of blood from Mysha earlier haunts me with worries. She is pregnant, yet she is willing to jeopardize her health for the sake of vengeance. Mysha is a fool for making that decision. She endangers not just her people, but also herself and the baby
