"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
Luna lazily got up from bed. Her body was aching like she had been battered with a baseball bat while sleeping.A baseball bat? Since when did she know the feeling of being battered by the baseball bat?Her knees seemed to be trembling while taking small steps to the shower. It feels like the ground is shaking and moving opposite to where she is going. The feeling of being drunk is not really for her. But she had fun. The dancing and getting drunk made her more alive, especially with Chiara.Chiara is the best.But wait— how did we get home again?Her wobbly thoughts disappeared when she saw her appearance in a life-size mirror. She doesn't look like a mess! Her hair was neatly tied in a bun, and her dress was replaced with a jacket and thick trousers. Plus, her face was not wearing makeup anymore!She tried to think back about what happened last night. But she could only remember when they were inside the bar. After that, her mind was
Luna could almost let out an audible groan when she reached the mansion's receiving area. There stood Chiara pouting her lips, sitting on a single couch while her arms were crossed on her chest like she woke up from a nightmare that caused her morning in such a mood. Liam was sittingacross Chiara, talking to the man in a white coat and a stethoscope hanging on his shoulder.When they noticed her loud running steps, all of their eyes flew directly to her. Having her crumbled world earlier, Chiara brightened her eyes as she had just found her misplaced doll. Liam gave her a wink and mouthed 'good morning.'Not again. Another doctor appointment and she doesn't have to guess whom this person is visiting because she is the only one going through nuts and stuff in the entire estate."Good morning! Did you have fun last night?"Chiara jolted from her seat and ran towards her with excitement as s
One week has passed, and the rumors of Luna killing the son of Don Rico spread fast in the estate. Still, in her daze memory, Luna tried to recollect what happened that night, but eventually, her brain was darker than the night without the moon and stars. It stressed her out, but Chiara always told her not to think about it, and it was not her fault that night.Yeah, like, killing people is her new habit now? She unintentionally killed the General of Monaco's family, and a week after that, she killed the son of one Don Balthazar. And from what she heard, he was one of the most influential people in San Lucia, and that City is just next to San Jose! Not only that, the alcohol made her beat up the dozen of men of the poor guy she killed!Luna bet her life that that person's family was looking for her now. She could only wish to be swallowed by the ground so she could be safer.And what if they will find out she's residing
“Just because you are the sole heiress of the family, you’ll acted hug and mighty young lady! Who are you? You are nothing but a spoiled brat trying to sucked up the fortune of the family!”“Stop it! She’ll gonna tell her grand father if you hit her.”Luna was looking eagerly at the man who stopped the lady from hitting the young girl. She can’t see their faces clearly, but the pity she felt towards the little girl who are kneeling on the floor, it aches her heart. She felt a connection, something that make her hate the to people who were trying to hurt the poor child.“Go back to the mansion right now. You’re 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 g
Luna tried to hide her laughter as Ares barely managed to avoid the City's crowded streets. It is evident from his expression that he had only now kept up with the flow of the road in his place.After she dressed up earlier, he invited her to eat where she wanted to dine for dinner. Ares even presented a variety of expensive restaurants, but she preferred to take him to the street food stalls.When Luna stayed in the City, she often came here to try exotic foods, and sometimes she brought Liam with her, especially on weekends."Are you all right? Don't you want to be here? Let's move to the place you want to eat." Luna commented on Ares's almost intricate eyebrows.She wanted to laugh but preferred to show a sad face to him. It's fun to tease, actually.The street is sweltering, and Ares can barely manage the stress written on his face as the drops of sweat are pouring on his for
Slowly peeling both of her eyes open, Luna sat upright on her bed and rubbed her eyes with the back of her hands while thinking about the time she spent together with Ares last night. She was too tired after they dined at one of the finest restaurants in the City. After dinner, Ares took her to the Land of Wonders, the tallest building in the Capitol, and he brought her to the rooftop where the entire City is widely seen.They waited until midnight for the fireworks. She forgot that yesterday was Sunday, and the same day, the City has its tradition of ending the weekend with a fireworks display and their sign to welcome the week with noise, for they believe that the more noise you make, the more money will be earned come to you.She heard a bark from Lunar, who jumped on her bed and wagging his tail, running towards her. Her eyes lit up when she saw the pup beaming with excitement. She missed this baby so much!"Hi, baby! Did you enjoy your vacation with Uncle D
"Calm down for a bit, Ares. Stop panicking, man. All of our men are already looking at the entire building, and it is not easy to find someone inside the five hundred floors of this building." Liam shook his head at Ares's uneasiness.When his meeting ended earlier, he immediately returned to his office to see Luna. He knew the girl was hungry because his meeting ended almost late in the afternoon. He instructed her just to order something to eat, but he wasn't sure if the girl followed him.He was shocked when he saw that his office was empty without Luna's presence. He looked for her in the lobby, but he almost pointed a gun at his employees, but no one noticed the woman.Almost an hour ago, the maiden disappeared, and now his nervousness is overpowering his mind. He has never been moved by that kind of concern for his entire life now, not until today."What news on the security system? Tell them that if they don't give me
