The Luna's Prey Chapter 88: And Then You Came
Maryland, USA“WHY did you stop the car? We’re still far from home,” I told Nick, my driver, after he suddenly stopped the car in the middle of nowhere. It was late at night and it was raining heavily outside.“My apologies, Sir. There is a woman lying in the middle of the road. I can’t tell whether she’s still alive or not. What should we do?”I sighed. The shallowness of some humans still amazes me until now. There were plenty of vampires and wolves who would do anything to live and yet, there were humans who would do anything to die.“Go, check on her. If she is dead, call the cops. If she is just trying to kill herself, tell her not to block the road. There is a cliff nearby. Tell her where it is. She could go kill herself there without disturbing everyone.”Nick nodded before he stepped out of the car. I decided to open another bottle of brandy. I had to drink a lot tonight or else, it would be impossible for me to sleep. On rainy nights like this, liquors were the best company.
The Luna's Prey Chapter 89: Your Name
“CAN you talk now? Can you tell me your name? If you give me your family’s contact details, my assistant would reach out to them. That way, they could pick you up as soon as possible. You were sick for days. I’m sure they are worried about you now,” I told the stranger when I saw her beginning to calm down.But it seemed to be a wrong move.“My name?” she whispered and held her head. “I don’t know. I don’t remember.” Her eyes widened as she started to become hysterical again. “Why can’t I remember anything? What is wrong with me?”I held her hands when she started pulling her hair. “It’s okay. Don’t hurt yourself. You don’t have to force yourself to remember. I’m here. I will help you.”Her eyes looked very frightened. And I could understand why. Waking up one morning with no sense of identity was indeed very frightening.Her voice cracked when she asked, “You will?”I nodded. “I promise.”That promise had turned my whole world around. I ruined the plans I made and messed the rules I
The Luna's Prey Chapter 90: Lean On Me
“OF COURSE,” I answered casually.Here she was, worried about taking my hand when here I was, worried that she might have taken more than just my hand. My heart kept getting weirder each day that I no longer find it funny anymore. It was beating so loudly as if it was sending me a warning… which I ended up ignoring.I squeezed her hand. When she smiled at me for the first time, the entire surrounding seemed to shine. Without the presence of grilled meat, that smile became more rewarding.“Thank you, Valerian, for everything. I don’t know what would have happened to me without you.”“Don’t mention it. You’re just a little lost. And who doesn’t go through that phase at least once in their lives? I should thank you as well. Nick is a boring companion. But with you there, I’m sure it will be different.” I winked at her. “So, thank you for choosing to trust me, Cassandra,” I said. “That’s what I will call you from now on.”I once read a book about Greek Mythology. I learned that Cassandra
The Luna's Prey Chapter 91: Wind Beneath My Wings
Seven years later…(Valerian)“HERE she comes. Let’s all give a round of applause to the woman of the hour, Cassandra Hudson!”Once again, Cassandra took breaths away as she walked towards the center of the gallery. This was her fourth solo exhibit. And as usual, it was a success. The gallery was bustling with people. Almost all of the photos already had little red stickers underneath them. And a while ago, I just heard people requesting the manager for another exhibit while complaining that somebody had already beat them to buying her works.But of course, it all depends on the photographer herself.Looking at how Cassandra faced the people with confidence filled me with pride. She did it. I could see her wings fully spread now.We were traveling in our fourth country when she found her passion. I bought her a camera the very first time she told me about it. I was more than happy to see her finally wanting to do something for herself. It was the first time I saw her eyes sparkle.Unt
The Luna's Prey Chapter 92: Three Faithful Hearts
(Cassandra)EVEN if I knew I would be late for my dinner plans with Valerian, I still could not stop myself from parking my car in front of an establishment after seeing the Alpha King’s face which was currently being shown through the electronic billboard.And the parking lot was the best spot for it.I first heard about the werewolves when we were in France. It was on the news. That was six years ago. It was the time when their existence was formally introduced to the whole world. Since then, I had been fascinated about wolves, about their forms, and about the places they frequent. I would often visit the woods hoping to see a glimpse of them but so far, I hadn’t had the chance to see any of them in person.I couldn’t explain it, but they were all I could think about since then. I felt a certain type of attachment to them and I know it was weird because I was a human. Now that my exhibit was over and I had completely given up on finding my true identity here in the States, I wanted
The Luna's Prey Chapter 93: Our Own Kind of Love
I WAS surprised by the petals scattered around the floor the second I opened the door. There were scented candles around, too. I thought Val and I were only going to have a simple dinner to celebrate last night’s success. I gulped and continued walking towards the living room of his grand mansion.And there, I saw him playing the piano, emitting princely vibes again with just his cream turtle-neck long-sleeve and pants. His shoulder-length platinum hair was neatly tied. He was looking at me with tenderness in his eyes as he played.This was the same music that made me believe that life was still beautiful even after suffering from amnesia. Watching him like this had brought me back to the past, to the times when he would come running at my door each time I would have nightmares and then he would hold me tight in his arms. And because I was scared to go back to sleep, he would play the piano to pacify me.‘I’m always here’, those three words were what he would always tell me.For other
The Luna's Prey Chapter 94: Her Fragile Heart
(Luther)“BECAUSE you are still half wolf, I will give you a chance to redeem yourself. Tell me where your king is hiding and I will spare your life,” I told the hybrid after I caught him in a pub. I was behind him. My hand was holding down his head on the counter while my other hand was squeezing his arm.“Even if you kill me, I will not tell you a single word about my king!” he screeched.“So, you have chosen death. Then your wish is my command,” I told him before I released his hand only to unsheathe my sword. Before he could step out of the door, I had already thrown the sword in his direction. It pierced his chest until he fell on the floor.When I looked around the pub, the blood of the vampires who were drinking with him earlier was splattered everywhere.I pulled out a chair and sat down to wipe my sword when Richard, my beta, along with the warriors, rushed in. All of them were horrified after seeing the area they would have to clean up.“You went on your own again, Alpha. Wh
The Luna's Prey Chapter 95: Missing You
AFTER dinner, I joined Iris in the entertainment room and watched her favorite kiddie show with her. An hour later, I tucked her to bed and went to my office. I turned on my computer to review the documents regarding the hybrids in case there were details that I missed. Tonight was the tenth time we encountered some of the hybrids but it just proved that they were either back in the country or that they didn’t leave the country at all. The pack once located some of them in Asia and Australia. The problem was that most of the hybrids would rather slash their throats than be interrogated. I didn’t know how a heartless man like Kenji managed to have such loyal subordinates who would rather sacrifice themselves than expose their king. Over the past years, Dad and I had worked together to build an empire for the wolves. We did it in memories of Mom and Alexandra. Our number and strength were so much better than before. The wolves were no longer easy to take down. Our army now was stronge
