Semua Bab A Luna Prize For The Twin Alphas and Their Father : Bab 1 - Bab 10

[Ciara's Pov]My name is Clara Baxter, and this is the story of how I met the one person who would turn my world upside down. It all began on the night my best friend, Julia, forced me to follow her to the club. She had just caught her boyfriend of four years cheating, and all she wanted was to drown her sorrow in alcohol.I was the perfect person to be with her at the club. Now, we were seated at the bar in the wildest nightclubs in California, and all I could think about was how the bass from the speakers pounded through my chest.The music thumped so hard it felt like it was knocking the breath out of my lungs. Bright lights flashed in wild, dizzying patterns as Julia brought her glass to her lips."Ryan is such an idiot for cheating on me!" She yelled, tossing her blonde hair over her shoulder. Her voice cracked, yet she forced herself to smile.“Totally!” I yelled back, though my heart ached for her. Her eyes were red, her makeup smudged. She looked like she was trying too hard to

Chapter 3: A Dangerous Offer(Daryl’s POV)"What did you just say?" Ciara asked, stepping closer to me.I swallowed hard, meeting her gaze. She was staring at me like I had lost my damn mind."For twenty million dollars, I want you to marry me, Ciara," I said.She broke into a small laugh, "What the hell is wrong with you? We met last night, had hot sèx, and now—"I cut into her words, "Ciara, I haven't met you before now, yet you insist that we were together last night. So, let's make this work for both of us.""Okay?" She eyed me."I want you to attend three family events as my fake fiancée with me this Christmas. Smile, play the part, and by the first week of the new year, you walk away with a generous sum. We never see each other again." I replied with a smirk. She looked away immediately.She looked away.That was a good sign, so I decided to let the silence work in my favor, giving her time to think. Then, suddenly, her eyes flashed as she turned back to me."Why are you pretend

[Ciara's POV]As I walked away from Daryl, I became more confused, thinking about everything that was happening. Twice, Daryl had pretended as though we were complete strangers.His words still rang in my mind as I made my way up the staircase. Why did he bring me all the way from California only to order me to leave because I didn't "belong" here? Was this some sort of prank? Perhaps he had forgotten for a moment that it was he who had made me the offer to be his fake fiancé.Soon, I reached the door to my room and yanked it open, slamming it shut behind me with a loud crack. Then, I leaned against it for a second as my chest rose and fell in quick, shallow breaths. My throat felt tight and my eyes burned. But I wasn’t going to cry. No! Not here. Not over this.I pushed off the door and started pacing back and forth, as my boots thudded against the thick rug.“What the hell is happening?” I muttered to myself.I was in a location I knew nothing about, and the only thing I wanted most

[DAMON'S POV]“She’s my chosen mate,” Daryl said, taking a step toward me. “You don’t get to come in here and—”“She’s human,” I said flatly, cutting him off. My gaze slid back to Ciara, who flinched again. “She’s not one of us. You're not stupid enough to choose a random human as your mate, are you?"“You don’t get to decide that,” he growled. “You’re just pissed you didn’t mark her when you fucked her.”I laughed. “I didn’t need to mark her to make her come apart for me.” “Enough,” Daryl growled, his hand snapping out to shove me back. I let him, but the moment his hand hit my chest, Calx lunged inside me. I slammed him back down. This wasn’t the right place to shift into my wolf form. I wasn’t sure Ciara even knew who we truly were.“Can you two just hold on a moment!” Ciara said as she stepped between Daryl and me. “What is going on here? And what does it matter if I’m human?”I looked at Ciara again, softer this time. “You need to find your way out of this place, and never come

Chapter 9:[DARYL'S POV ]I stepped into the Red Room, and immediately, it felt like all eyes were on me. The council members were already in their usual spots around the large oak table. My eyes quickly found Damon who was seated by the table, twirling a glass of whiskey between his fingers.I looked away from him and focused on my father who was seated at the head of the table. He had his arms crossed and his lips were set in a hard line. My stomach tightened as I noticed how his eyes bore into me. “Daryl,” he called in his rough voice.“Father…?” I replied. “Finally decided to show up?” Garret, the jerk sitting next to him, sneered. “I still don’t get why this reputable council had to wait on some pup who doesn’t know his place.”“Garret,” I spat his name out like it was something disgusting. “I am here now.” I didn't know why, but I fought the urge to punch him. Garret was the pack's official beta and my father’s right hand. He had never hidden his hate for my brother and me. E
