Semua Bab Broken Season: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Luna continued to gaze out of the window, her mind wandering far away, leaving Alicia and Lili, who happened to be with her today, looking at her friend and boss in puzzlement."Did something happen yesterday?" Lili asked Alicia."I don't know. Yesterday, she went out with her fiancé," Alicia whispered back while looking at Luna, who remained unfazed."Did they have a fight?" Lili inquired, and Alicia just shrugged indicating that she didn't know."I think something definitely happened. She's been quieter since yesterday," Lili continued. Lili looked at Luna, who was still focused on the view. Lili was Luna's assistant and lived with her in her penthouse. Since Luna's return yesterday, she seemed more reserved and spent more time in her room, which was unusual for Luna as Lili knew."Cia!" Luna's voice broke the silence, causing the two who were discussing her to fall quiet."Yes, Luna?""Do you know something about Lucas?" Luna asked, making her two friends fall silent and exchange g

Luna gazed at herself in front of the large mirror that was the same height as her, allowing her to see her entire body in its reflection. The long white gown she had designed herself finally clung to her body perfectly, looking both fitting and beautiful. The dress had a simple design, yet it exuded an air of luxury when worn by Luna Estrada.A necklace with a pendant resembling the wings of a fairy was wrapped around her neck, adding to her overall beauty. A tiara, not too extravagant but fittingly placed on top of her head with small diamonds at its center, made Luna look like a queen.Her cheeks were flushed pink, whether due to the application of blush or her slightly racing heart, Luna wasn't sure. Even though she couldn't guarantee that this marriage would end happily, she was determined to go through with it. Whether it would be a joyous ending or not, Luna would leave it to fate. After all, she had made her decision. She was complying with her grandfather's undeniable wish, w

"Travis," Luna mumbled."What are you doing?" Luna asked.Travis fell silent and gazed at Luna momentarily before putting that smile back on. "I thought that was Lucas in there," Travis said."He's still in the ballroom," Luna replied, narrowing her eyes at Travis, suspecting he hadn't just bumped into Lucas downstairs."Oh, I didn't see him. Maybe he's chatting with other guests," Travis answered, tilting his head slightly and looking into Luna's room. Luna quickly blocked Travis's view by standing in front of him and crossing her arms."So, it seems like you have no reason to stand here anymore, right?" Luna asked, causing Travis to raise an eyebrow, giving her an unreadable look."Why are you looking at me like that?" Luna inquired, but Travis didn't answer. Instead, he took a step forward, moving closer to Luna, who instinctively moved back. Travis halted right in front of Luna, only a few centimeters away. He put his hands in his trouser pockets and continued to gaze at Luna, mak

That word was now running through Luna's mind. She kept her eyes closed, continuing to savor the comfort and warmth she was feeling at the moment. She was even reluctant to open her eyes. She couldn't remember the last time she had slept this soundly.However, a little while later, Luna jolted as she felt something encircling her waist, pulling her closer to where she felt the most comfortable. Luna kept her eyes closed and could hear the sound of someone's breathing and heartbeat.Wait, this isn't my heartbeat.She then moved her hand to feel what was near her. Her hand touched something soft, and beneath that, she could feel a broad chest. Luna's eyes shot open as she was shocked to see Lucas' sleeping face. He was tightly holding her in his embrace.Luna blinked her eyes a few times. How did he end up so close? Where did that damn bolster pillow that was supposed to separate them last night go, Luna wondered.Before he wakes up, I need to move away, Luna thought, trying to gently l

The last question from Luna left Carlos and Lucas momentarily speechless, staring at her. Luna, however, maintained her indifferent expression even though her question was a fairly common one."Are you sure you're asking that?" Lucas inquired."Yes, of course. Wasn't my previous statement clear enough?" Luna replied, and Lucas glanced briefly at Carlos.Carlos, who had been feeling uncomfortable being caught between them, cleared his throat before he attempted to stand up from his seat. "If that's the case, I'll take my leave. I'll report back later, Sir," Carlos said, but before he could fully straighten himself up, Luna spoke up again."Where are you going?" Luna asked."I need to attend to my duties, ma'am," Carlos answered."No, stay. I might need your assistance," Luna said, causing Carlos to briefly glance at Lucas. It seemed Carlos understood the meaning behind Lucas's gaze, and after a nod from Lucas, Carlos resumed his seat."So, what's your answer?" Luna asked, referring to
