The figure turned around, and I got a clear look at who it was."Oh, Catherine.""Oh, Catherine? You don't sound happy to see your mother-in-law," she huffed, a trace of annoyance in her voice.Did I say that out loud?"I'm just tired. Why are you here?" I began to take my shoes off. "And why does the house smell like an ice cream vending machine?" I tried not to sniff too loudly, but the vanilla scent was overwhelming.She turned back to flipping pancakes. "Oh, the house smelled like a flower garden, which is not much of a fancy scent. Besides, I'm having a friend over, and she likes this scent, so I thought, why not go for a change?"I rolled my eyes. "So... why are you here?""To take care of my son's house. I don't need permission to do that, do I?" She looked back at me with a very condescending smile."No, you don't. Make yourself at home. The maids will give you whatever you need," I said, turning to leave, but stopped halfway when she called my name."Why don't you go move you

I stuffed my dried undies back into their bag and dropped it in the closet. With a sigh, I went back to the door to see if Catherine's visitors were still there. From the top of the stairs, I could see the living room teeming with women who were clearly in no hurry to leave. Resigned, I grabbed my car keys and bag, heading downstairs. As I became visible to the living room, all eyes turned to me. Catherine had a scowl on her face, and the other women just stared blankly.There was no greeting. Why? Because they were friends with the previous Luna. One plus one equals two.I turned to Catherine, whose scowl vanished the moment the women looked at her. “I'm going out, don't wait up.”“You can stay for a late lunch,” she said, getting up and ushering the women to the dining room. “I made mac and cheese, your favorite.”“They're not my favorite, and I'm late to wherever I'm going.” I honestly didn't know where I was going. I had tried to sleep, but the women's loud laughter had made it im

I fumbled for my phone, hands shaking, and dialed the emergency services. My voice trembled as I explained my situation, giving them my location as best as I could."Please, hurry," I urged, my anxiety spiking as I glanced back at the burnt car and people from around staring at it and me. "My car just blew up"The operator assured me help was on the way, and I hung up, trying to steady my breathing. Standing by the side of the road, I felt utterly alone and vulnerable. The deserted stretch of road, with its silence only broken by the occasional rustle of leaves, did nothing to calm my nerves.While waiting for help to arrive, my mind wandered back to the events of the day. Catherine and her friends, the heated confrontation, the nightmare that wouldn't let go—all of it seemed to converge in this moment of crisis. I felt like the universe was testing me, pushing me to my limits.Minutes later, the sound of sirens pierced the air, and I saw the flashing lights of a fire truck and a tow

I didn't know where to turn or who to talk to. Victor wasn't an option, I just couldn't bring myself to tell what has been going on. And the rest of the people I trusted were few and far between, and I didn't want to burden them with my troubles. But the need for connection, for someone to understand, was overwhelming. I felt so alone, adrift in a sea of my own emotions that I couldn't control.Tears welled up in my eyes, blurring my vision. I tried to hold them back, but the effort was futile. They spilled over, running down my cheeks in silent streams. That was how close I was to breaking.I needed to put an end to all this, to put the pieces of myself back together. But in that moment, standing by the side of the road, all I could do was cry. I cried for the pain, for the fear, for the exhaustion that had seeped into every fiber of my being. I cried for all my lost and how long I was planning to keep enduring.I didn't have all the answers. I didn't know how I was going to move for

The backyard was beautifully arranged. A large table with chairs around it stood at the center, adorned with a variety of food and drinks. Maids stood discreetly nearby, ready to assist. The setting was picturesque, with twinkling lights hanging from the trees and a gentle breeze adding a touch of freshness to the evening.This was my first time here, and the beauty of the place did help soothe my nerves a bit. Before joining the gathering outside, I had to fulfill a small but important duty. Cecil guided me inside to greet her sick grandmother who was upstairs. We climbed the wooden staircase, and was soon in the room. Her grandmother lay in bed, surrounded by flowers and family photos. Frail appearance and dull eyes. They were older maids in with her and it was quiet in there."Hello, Mrs. Whitmore," I said gently, approaching her bedside while Cecil stood behind me."Luna, it's so nice to finally meet you," She replied, her voice weak but welcoming. "Cecil has told me so much abou

Everybody has a lucky month and June clearly wasn't mine. Literally.After the gathering, I didn’t feel like joining the games everyone else had chosen to play. I was emotionally drained and just wanted to leave early. I waved Cecil goodbye, and also had to swear on everybody's life that it wasn't because of her or what happened earlier. She offered to drive me home but I declined, she was pregnant and she needed her family more than she needed me.After thanking her for inviting me, I walked to out of the building where I had ordered a ride.The cab arrived shortly, and I slid into the back seat, giving the driver an address before settling in. I pulled out my phone and began scrolling through the internet, desperate for a distraction from the turmoil in my mind. Fortunately, there was no mention of my accident on the pack's blog. I knew the uproar it would cause if people got wind of what had happened. The idea that someone might be targeting the Luna would send waves of fear throug

“Where exactly are we going?”“It’s a surprise,” he said, carrying me toward his bedroom. “But first, let’s get you cleaned up. You do look like a mess” He set me down gently on the edge of the bed and went to the bathroom to prepare the shower. I could hear the water running, and the sound was oddly soothing. When he returned, he had a warm, inviting and infectious smile on his face.“Come on, let’s clean you up,” he said, extending his hand.I took his hand and let him lead me to the bathroom. The steam from the hot water filled the room, enveloping us in a cozy warmth. He helped me undress. Once I was under the warm spray, he carefully washed my hair, his fingers massaging my scalp in a way that made me feel both relaxed and I almost fell asleep.As he rinsed out the shampoo, I closed my eyes and let the water wash away the remnants of my tears and the stress of the past few days. For the first time in what felt like forever, I began to feel a sense of calm.After the shower, he w

As we continued driving through the winding path surrounded by trees, I noticed the scenery starting to open up. We emerged from the dense woods onto a wide expanse that looked like a private airfield. I blinked in surprise, taking in the sight of a sleek private plane parked on the tarmac.The driver turned the car toward the airfield.Victor asked with a smile playing on his lips as he glanced at me. "Surprised?"I nodded, still processing the sight. "Definitely. This is your surprise?"He chuckled. "Part of it. We have a bit of traveling to do."The driver pulled the car to a stop near the plane and got out, coming around to open my door. As I stepped out, the cool night air hit me, and I shivered slightly. Victor immediately took off his coat and draped it around my shoulders, enveloping me in warmth and the faint scent of his cologne."Thank you," I murmured He smiled and took my hand, guiding me toward the plane. "Come on."I looked around the wide space, I almost screamed. It

Victor instructed the guards to keep a close eye on the building and Ana, specially, before he entered his car, without his driver and drove off. He drove through the dark, isolated roads that led to a warehouse on the outskirts of the city in the middle of the night while Ana remained asleep. The night was quiet, with only the occasional distant sound of an owl hooting or his passing car.His watch kept beeping as the forest began to grow denser as he approached the secluded warehouse, a camouflaged building standing quietly among the trees. He parked the car nearby and took a moment to steady himself.After a few seconds looking at the surrounding. Victor approached the entrance, the gravel crunching under his boots, and pushed open the heavy metal door.Inside, the warehouse was filled with an array of gadgets, cars, and various equipment. The dim lighting cast long shadows across the space, creating an eerie atmosphere. In the empty center of the warehouse, a man was tied to a cha

It was a yacht. It was a yacht.I stared at the very neat, beautiful, and big creation in front of me. With Victor standing behind me, his hands resting gently on my waist, I used my hand to shield my eyes from the morning sun as I took it all in. The yacht was immaculate, gleaming white, and it looked like something straight out of a dream.I had woken up earlier than I expected, probably because of the excitement. The word "surprise" always did something to me, kept me on my toes and all. I felt like a kid on Christmas morning, eager to see what the day had in store, what surprise he said he had for me. After a quick shower and wrapping myself in one of Victor’s shirts, which smelled wonderfully like him, I went downstairs to find him already waiting with a knowing smile.We went out for breakfast at a cozy little café not far from the estate. I was still in his shirts and one of his shorts, both of which were too big for me. I probably looked funny, but Victor kept saying I looked
