Aria's POVThe Ancestral Hall, where the ritual is held, is what I can see out of the window. The dated building has been transformed into an excellent one with a grandiose design. The entrance was embellished with vines, butterflies, and a motif that resembled a portal on the door. It exceeded my expectations.Everyone who entered would get the illusion that they were traveling through a separate dimension, even if they weren't. During the pre-planning, I made sure to point out these particulars to the organizer, and they both concurred. I informed them that the cotton-white theme would be applied inside the Hall and the forest-themed ones would be outside. While the interior was delicate and graceful, the exterior was aggressive and organic. It was how I imagined the afterlife to be.The rituals haven't started yet, but the tension in my chest is mounting. And my nerves were amplified as the loud music began to play, signaling that the ceremony was about to start.I sighed, turned

Aria's POV "They won the trial." I can't help but be happy on this day for a couple of different reasons, one of which being the Crescentius' victory over their accusers. I almost punched Elora earlier because she conveyed the news so suspensefully. I truly believed Mysha had lost the case; thankfully, Elora quickly repudiated what she had said earlier. Otherwise, I would have been devastated. "How did you get that information anyway?" Instead of heading straight to my room, I ended up in the living room, gossiping with Elora. Yet, one thing that puzzled me was how she obtained such info. She didn't respond to my query, instead showing me her phone. The moniker 'GGE' gossip girl era attracted my interest in a specific group chat. So she received the gossip from here? "Creative source of intelligence, no?" She laughed and nodded. After Elora and I talked, I didn't spend much time in the living room. She has work to do with servicing the guests because there is so much to cater t

Nicholas went back to the homestead after sending Aria home. He needed to confront someone from there because of the mess. His mate was hurt because of Arturo's negligence to informed his constituents about his and Aria's arrival. Aside from that, he wants to know how many cases of robbers breaking in and stoning individuals who enter without permission have occurred. His first project for this year was an alarm monitor that transmits an alarm if someone who is not a member of the group enters. Although there was no such scene before, the hurling of stones persisted. “Alpha, you’re back,” Arturo declared. His previous softness had faded, and all that remained was cruelty. Nicholas used to show mercy under Aria's presence, but now he doesn't. He is mindful Natasha wields considerable power in this area and suspects that the girls are aware that Aria is not a thief. It was a sabotage act. Given his mate's complexion, aura, and attractiveness, being mistaken for a thief is already an

Aria's POV "Is this your schedule?" I asked Nicholas curiously, holding the daily record he gave me. He remembered what I told him last time when we went to the homestead. Five days have passed since that event, and my wounds have also healed, owing to Kaia's help. "Yes," he answered. My eyes ran through the handbook that Nicholas handed me and noticed that it contained not only his schedule but also his previous and forthcoming projects. While reading, I glimpsed the homestead project, including the structure where he forced me to carry bricks to help the omega. There are ten projects in all that need to be established, with the remainder already underway. Nicholas must have developed a plan to turn Red Moon into a megacity in the realm. "I'll be gone on Megasus Pack tonight," he explained. "Please look after the Pack while I'm gone." My brow creased. Nicholas didn't want me to accompany him. It's not a big deal, but he should at least ask me, right? Every Alpha are supposed
BORN TO BE A LUNA 52.
Aria's POV My eyes fell so heavy as soon as I opened them, and a godlike face greeted me. Yesterday's event had me chained in my bed. "Nicholas," I whispered faintly. It was barely four in the morning when we decided to sleep. Nicholas was insatiable and wild in bed. He only stopped when I begged him because the middle of my thighs was throbbing like hell from the succeeding round he gave me. "Good morning, Aria," he beamed, kissing my temple. My gaze was drawn to his nude torso, with only a towel covering his impressive member. His hair was dripping wet, making him twice as appealing, and his adonis physique aroused my hormones. Nicholas had just gotten out of the shower, and with his god-like features, he could be every woman's fantasy. I grasp the blanket and wrap it around me before standing up, but then I wince a bit when the pain shoots from my core. Damn! Nicholas instantly slides beside me with a worried look on his face. "Are you okay?" My cheeks reddened as the blanke

Aria's POV"Which Kairo are you talking about?"Nicholas's eyes shot daggers at me, and the frown on his forehead also became more visible as he grabbed my wrist. There was no hint of idea etched on his face: it was blank and confused."Stop fooling around! I know you know what I'm talking about!" I growled.His jaw clenched, and I could feel his self-control. But I couldn't be wrong. I am infallible that it was Kairo. It must be him. "What the heck are you talking about, Aria?"He won't admit it. 'He obviously didn't know, Aria,' Kaia annoyingly butts in. 'Stop initiating a fight.'Fine! I wouldn't press this matter further. However, I certainly won't let this pass. If Nicholas can hide things from me, then I'll unravel each of them until he has no more secrets to hide. He had to wait for it. I heaved a sigh and met Nicholas's gaze. "Forget what I said...it was actually just an act. I kinda plan to be an actress."It was the most implausible explanation I could think of, yet noth

Aria's POVMy plan went down the drain when Nicholas came. His judging eyes pierced through me while Elora excused herself. I calmly sipped my coffee, acting as if everything was normal and there was nothing to worry about.For once, I begged fate to be on my side, but it constantly got in the way. Thinking about everything, especially the secrets Nicholas is keeping from me, does not make me feel at ease. I swore to accept everything he could give me, no matter how bad it was. However, I couldn't help but feel how unjust our situation is."What did Elora do here?"I didn't glance at him and kept my gaze set on the horizon. "She brought my coffee."There were no follow-up inquiries, and I sensed Nicholas' leave as the mood lightened. I sighed and distracted myself by playing with my nails. Just the other day, we were okay, and then suddenly, everything changed. It was my fault, alright.This developing passion within me is vile; it has torn me between humbleness and fighting for my ri
BORN TO BE A LUNA 55.
Aria's POV"Please save our parents, Aria. I begged you."It was Mysha's first text message to me in six months. She seems to have no option but to humble herself to save the person she has worked so hard to protect. I was torn. I am not just my parent's daughter but also the Pack's Luna. My choice should be free of bias. It must always be logical. Even though I know Nicholas is only using me, I have accepted the position, and it would be a betrayal to abandon Red Moonians to save my parents, who are the source of their misery. They have suffered as a result of my parent's pride, and they deserve justice."I told you your parents aren't here, unlike what your sister claimed," Nicholas shouts angrily."Mysha won't come here to presume anything," I say gently.I'm familiar with my sister. She is not like me, who acts irrationally most of the time. She must have had a reason for coming here earlier; it cannot have been merely a simple assumption that Nicholas had taken our parents into
