Chapter one
The Rogue Luna/Vine Ifechukwu
~ANGELINA~For a normal person, today was an exciting day.But I was far from being normal. Within me, anxiety and fear exploded—making a disastrous mix. Rather than bask in euphoria as someone celebrating her three year wedding anniversary, I was filled with dread. So much that I almost buckled to the floor while getting out of my car.Exhaling deeply, my breath misted in the chilly air. I grabbed the two bags of goodies I'd gotten earlier this morning and started towards the massive building of Schnitzel Corporations.Walking through the glass doors, all eyes swung to me. All movements halted and then came the chorus:“Good afternoon, Luna.”Despite my anxiety, my cheeks heated up. I held my composure together and replied in a calm voice.Briefly exchanging pleasantries with the receptionist, I asked, “Is the alpha by Amy chance free?”Smiling knowingly, she replied, “Yes, Luna. He is.”“Thank you.” I returned her smile and went straight for the elevator that would lead me to his of

~ANGELINA~Evening had fast come and the atmosphere was anything but comfortable. A harsh breeze blew, swaying trees and raising debris in the air.I remained, hunched on the ground, crying. I couldn't believe Luca would treat me that way. Like I was some sort of trash. It was true he'd never liked me too but I had thought his attitude would change as time went on. Obviously, I was wrong. And the fact Luca would see me as the reason for our childlessness just demonstrated how low he thought of me. I didn't know why the moon goddess had decided to punish me this way.My tears kept pouring. Even when my stomach growled out of hunger, I didn't stop. Then, a stinging sensation hit me.At first, I resisted the urge to rub my eyes, but the discomfort grew by the minute till I began a fresh set of tear. Not out of emotional pain, but physical.I stood to leave, but caught sight of a figure several feet away from me. It didn't make sense at first, but soon enough, I realised what it was.From

~ANGELINA~“What's going on here?” I stepped in. The soft music that had been playing died down as all attention turned to me. Luca frowned as soon as he saw me. His flair pinewood scent rose to my nostrils, bringing with it memories that were filled with bitterness. He was dressed in a white fitting robe that made him appear dangerously handsome.None of that intimidated me. I was more concerned about what was happening here than his hateful gaze.I stared at the priest, hoping he'd give me answers.“Can someone tell me what's happening?” I asked again, my eyes falling on Lucas hand which was still joined to Glenda's.“Glenda?” I turned to her, eager for answers. She looked radiant in a sleek ivory gown. Her hands rested on Luca's arm, her eyes gleaming with triumph. How did they even get to change in those clothes when they’d been at the office only some time ago? This question chimed in my head as beads of tears began to form behind my eyes.For a moment, I couldn’t move. Coul

~ANGELINA~My attacker never finished me off, nor did he come around. I’d laid on the bare ground for what could be ages, drifting in and out of sleep which was haunted by nightmares. I kept seeing Glenda running after me with her claws. And having Luca baring his teeth at me. All this meant I wasn't safe.I'd thought of simply killing myself, but hadn't gotten around doing it. One, I was too scared, timid to carry that out. Two, suicide was a taboo; I wouldn't want to incur the wrath of the moon goddess.Heaving myself off the ground, I looked around the dark woods. The sounds of crickets and a howl rang it into my ears that I was lonely. I didn't know where to go from here.Without thinking, I just simply began to walk. The half moon lit my path up; the gently swaying plants whispered nothing but words of sympathy to my ears. Inwardly, I nodded even as tears crowded my eyes. I refused to come to terms with my harsh reality.Time stretched on and I continued to walk. Soon, the tears
