Ares was furious. His eyes were coldly fixed on the guy in front of him, grinning venomously as if teasing his patience. Inside the hall, the atmosphere was overwhelming. Everyone stood up from their seat. Even the armed men of each group were on high alert as the two powerful persons battled their pride via glances. And if glances could burn someone, Ares's anger right now could be enough to raze hell.
Benjamin Monaco is the head of the Monaco family. The lowest-ranking family inside Zenith Palace. But, even if the guy in front of him is the lowest in his camp, it doesn't alter the reality that no one can equal his might, except Ares, who worships no saint.
"I'm delighted to have you here today, Mr. Grant. "I expected you to deny my invitation."
Benjamin reached out his hand to Ares, who accepted it without hesitation. However, as their hands connected, the onlookers gasped since it was clear to their eyes how tight their clutches were. The sa

Ares' face could not be painted on the dining room table. After giving a disgusted reaction to how Chiara called Luna, he walked out of the room. And until they arrived at the restaurant he had reserved for dinner, he never spoke to them even a single word."Someone is jealous," Liam whispered teasingly while playing with the glass of wine in front of its face.It made Chiara frown, glaring at her cousins while cleaning the table knife with the napkin.The food soon arrived, and Luna was still irritated that Ares didn't even notice her, as if her all existence was transparent to his eyes. She kept peeking to her left side, hoping that somehow their eyes could at least meet. But disappointingly, the man didn't even give her a damn.The atmosphere was silent. Utensils are clashing as the four people on the table mind their own, but Luna is sulking. She purposely cut her steak with a force that finally

Later that night, Ares was sitting at the balcony of his room facing the shore while indulging in a glass of whiskey. On his left hand was his laptop. On-screen were the photos that Daniel had sent him this morning.His facial expression changed when he saw Monaco Clan's portrait on screen. They all had a tattoo just like the one on Luna's wrist. The only difference is that they were tattooed on their neck while Luna has her on the wrist.Was it merely a coincidence? After months of digging through Luna's identity, the only lead he has is this tattoo. He found her in the forest, which belonged to his family.

Luna moaned as she felt Ares's soft lips gently dance with her tongue. Because of the feeling engulfed her body, she seemed to be floating in the clouds.She felt the smooth glide of one of his hands on her neck, moving her head forward to cover her lips adequately. She seemed to be in a trance. She wished for more. But suddenly, Ares stopped and pressed their foreheads together as both chased the breath."I'm not sure why this is happening to me," Ares murmured, shutting his eyes and chasing his breath."Ares." Luna's only sound was a faint murmur.Ares let out a deep breath and straightened his back, facing the black ocean. But after a while, it moved and handed him the jacket that she had just noticed he was holding."Wear it. You might get sick. It's too cold out here."Luna took the jacket from here with a weak smile, but then sighed when she realized he

“Just because you are the sole heiress of the family, you’ll act huge and mighty young lady! Who are you? You are nothing but a spoiled brat trying to suck up the fortune of the family!”“Stop it! She’ll gonna tell her father if you hit her.”Luna looked eagerly at the man who stopped the lady from hitting the young girl. She can’t see their faces clearly, but the pity she feels towards the little girl kneeling on the floor aches her heart. She felt a connection, something that made her hate them to people trying to hurt the poor child.“Go back to the mansion right now. Your husband will be suspicious if he finds out that you’re here alone with me. He is a jealous man, after all.”The man went to his table and drank the whiskey straight from the bottle like he was just gulping water. The woman followed him and lustfully hugged him from behind, grinding her hips slowly made the man mo

Everyone came to a standstill as they saw a lady emerge in front of Marino, carrying two katanas in both hands. They couldn't hide their horror and dread as they saw the lady move her swords toward Marino, who remained transfixed like he'd seen a ghost.Chiara and Liam were taken aback. Their mouths agape as their gazes were drawn to Luna, who came from Ares's side, shielding him like a Queen defending her King.Luna hurried towards Ares, sheltering him with her body as Marino attempted to cut Ares's throat. But even before the katana landed on Ares, Marino stopped his hand mid-way in the air when he saw the woman in his front, pointing him the two steel as she knows perfectly well how to maneuver that thing."How dare you!" Luna shouted angrily, pointing one of the katana on Marino's neck; the other blocked her face."Y–you! H-how?!" Marino stuttered as he tried to recover from the shock.

It was midnight, and Luna had finished a bottle of wine alone in her room. After their conversation in the afternoon, the three had left the estate. And she was left all alone with Scar and Lunar—who were sleeping, purring together at the corner of her room.Ares left for a meeting, Liam went to Europe for an important mission, and Chiara was also busy at the company. And she was left in the room with nothing to do but to read and stroll all day around the estate.She slumped her body to the bed and stared blankly at the white ceiling, thinking, but her mind seemed to be empty. Alcohol is not allowed to her, and Ares had warned her, but she was bored and could not go out, so she stole a bottle from the wine rack after her dinner.After a minute of spacing out, a faint smirk slowly formed on her lips. They’ve lied to her. Or at least hide the truth about what really happened on the island.After passing out on the island, her mind w

"Babe! Are you 'kay? Oh my God! There's a lot of hot men over there!"Luna leaned closer to Chiara, who was dancing along with the loud music in the bar. She could smell the strong alcohol from her breathe.Chiara danced along with the crowd from time to time while she remained at the couch the privately occupied. She was dancing and having a good time earlier, but eventually, her head was reaped by the alcohol, so she returned to her seat and enjoyed sightseeing."I'm good! Go on! Just don't go further. I don't know anyone from here!"She shouted back so they could clear converse with each other. The music was too loud that it could almost tear her eardrums, but she still enjoyed the ecstatic rhythm, hyping her to drink more.She lost count on how many glasses and a shot of alcohol she had taken. Her head was already spinning, and the people around her began to double in her eyes. Still, her consciousness is clear."

"Luna, wake up."Ares gently patted Luna on the cheeks. She was blissfully asleep on his arms when she lost consciousness for the second time. Ares gulped as the fragrance of the alcohol mingled with her natural aroma. She was seductively lovely!He carefully removed his coat and draped it over her body, just in time for Liam to appear alongside him, pushing the throng aside.Why did she fight those rascals!"Oh, my holy grill! Did you see how she fought? Look at the dead meat right there! Serves you right, asshole!" Chiara exclaimed as she raised her middle finger on the group of men who were in excruciating pain right now.He only squeezed his two palms on his face with the intensity of his annoyance towards Chiara. What would he expect from her? Apart from being the unica hija, they spoiled her because she is the only female among his cousins.And now that
