All Chapters of The Rise Of The Ugly Luna: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

       LYRIC  My lips parted but no words formed. Jaris was asking me to stay. He might not be straightforward about it, but he wanted me to stay.  When I still didn't say a word, Xyla started another conversation. And fortunately, the conversation drifted from me.  .... So, I did stay.  The twins and I spent some time watching a movie in the home cinema. Yup. Jaris had a freaking cinema built into his mansion.  The twins slept off before the end of the second movie. I had to carry them one after the other to their rooms. When I was done laying them both in beds and tucking them in, I turned to the door and startled when I found Jaris leaning against the doorframe.  Geez! That gave me quite a stare.  "Good job." He tipped his head toward the k

       LYRIC I was reading a book on my phone when a text popped on my screen, freezing the air in my lungs. 'Hi, Lyric. Have you missed me?' It was from Roderick, and it was accompanied with a photo of me at the airport from when I newly came into the country. What the hell? He had taken a photo of me that day? But most importantly, why was he texting me? The doorbell ringing interrupted my thoughts. I scrambled off the bed and into the living room to check who it was. The kids were in their room, playing a video game. Who could possibly be visiting Jaris? I opened the door and was met with surprise when I found Marta. Unlike her, she didn't have any makeup on. Her hair looked like it had been hurriedly brushed and parked. Her eyes were swollen, indicating

"What?" Her mother murmured. "How's that—How's that possible?" "They can't be his, Marta. We bought them, remember? Or did someone manipulate the results?" "Beatrix is Jaris' aunt. She'd definitely want to know if her nephew was being deceived, and if he was, she'd expose it. She wouldn't cover up for us for any reason." Marta pulled at the roots of her hair. "This isn't right. Something isn't right." "Hold on," Her grandmother took a seat. "Are you trying to say the kids we arranged for and bought in a far away country are actually Jaris' kids? How in hell is that possible? Who's their mother, then?" "I—I don't know, grandma. But this can't be good." Marta's eyes were wide with panic. "How did I end up with Jaris' kids? How is another woman pregnant for him and...and he knows nothing about it?" "More importantly, who's the mother of the twins? How could she possibly

I walked out of the patient's room, carrying the chart in my hand and going through it.  I instructed the nurse beside me on what to do to one of the patients in the chart.  I came to a pause when someone stopped in front of me. I was forced to lift my head from the book, and in front of me was Marta. Oh, great.  "Do you need something, Doctor Monroe?" I resisted the urge to roll my eyes.  "Yes." She had a dubious smile on her face. "How has life been without your best friend being close to you?" I widened my eyes at her. Was she really going to do this in front of a nurse.  Turning to the nurse beside me, I dismissed her.  "What is wrong with you, Marta?" I shook my head.  "Why don't you tell me? I mean, it's been two days since he was kicked out of the pack. Ho

LYRIC I hesitated for a moment, trying to think of the best way to handle his mood. "I've been calling for fuck knows how long! You didn't return any of my calls! I was fucking worried, and this whole time, you were with him?! Are you for real?"I glanced at the car behind me. Alpha Zarek was still there. His glass wasn't tainted, so we could see him. "No! It's—It's not what you think. I tried to call back but—""What is wrong with you, Lyric? Do you really have no self-control? How can you be this loose?"His words struck me deep in the heart that my jaw dropped to the floor.Kael shifted uncomfortably and turned to the guards with him. "Let's go,"he whispered.I watched as they walked off, leaving me with the unreasonable side of Jaris."How can you even say that?" I scoffed. "I don't sleep around, Alpha Jaris! So, you have no right to use those words on me!"Now that we were alone, I felt that I could finally raise my voice. Although it came more from pain than frustrati
