THE CURSED LUNA

I restrained him as he attempted to enter my room, behaving almost like a burglar. I couldn't allow Alpha Christian to witness him engaging in foolishness that might damage my reputation within the pack.

"Where do you think you're going?" I inquired, quickly pulling him aside, my gaze scanning the area. My assessment was swift before I focused intently on his face. "Are you out of your mind? What are you trying to accomplish?" I whispered, my tone dripping with sarcasm as I leaned in closer, my expression fierce enough to make him widen his eyes in surprise.

"Can we go in, Sheelah, Chris..." he trailed off, his hands moving behind him as he opened the door. We slipped inside and nearly stumbled to the floor. He turned me around, pressing my hands against the wall, drawing closer.

I could feel his breath on my face, our noses almost touching. "Stop it, Adriana. What if someone catches us?" I murmured, and at that moment, he noticed my arms and let out a heavy sigh.

"Alpha Christian wants to learn more about that ridiculous girl who claims to be Emily, that foolish girl who thinks she can deceive us," he exclaimed, leaving me momentarily speechless. I made my way to the mattress and sat down gently while he remained standing, anxiety etched on his face.

My curiosity surged, prompting me to hiss without hesitation. "Alpha what? You caused this mess," I retorted angrily. My heart raced with worry-what if? That was the only thought racing through my mind. My foot felt clammy, and my hair was irritating me as I dug my fingers into it, pulling it in frustration.

"You caused all of this!" I growled, my face paling and my knuckles turning white as I lunged at him, striking his chest hard enough for him to wince in pain.

He quickly grasped my arms and spun me onto the bed, his body pressing against mine. He softly pressed his lips to mine, immersing us in a passionate kiss that I eagerly returned.

I cradled his head in my arms as we lost ourselves in the moment. However, my thoughts turned to something intense, and in a sudden impulse, I bit his lip, causing blood to flow.

He immediately recoiled, holding his lips in shock. I carefully distanced myself, urging him to mend what had been broken and questioning what had gone awry.

As he staggered back, his expression a mix of shock and pain, a wave of panic and remorse washed over me. "Oh my god, I'm so sorry!" I cried out, my hands instinctively covering my mouth in disbelief. I was in shock over my actions.

He pressed his fingers to his lip, grimacing at the touch of the injury. "What is wrong with you?" he questioned, his voice trembling with a blend of fury and hurt.

I stepped closer, eager to rectify the situation. "I don't know, I just... I can't explain what happened," I replied, feeling tears welling up in my eyes.

He turned away, making his way to the bathroom to inspect his lip in the mirror. I trailed behind him, feeling as though I were trapped in a bad dream. "Let me see," I urged, attempting to gently grasp his chin to assess the injury. He recoiled, pulling back from my touch. "Just give me a moment," he retorted, his eyes blazing with anger.

Adriana, I called out as he exited the bathroom, my eyes burning with intensity, reminiscent of a volcano ready to engulf a city. "We need to deal with that Emily girl," I instructed in a low voice.

Just as we were about to reach for the door, it swung open to reveal Alpha Christian. My heart raced, adrenaline coursing through my veins, and even Adriana couldn't mask his trepidation as he stumbled over his words. "Al... Alpha Christian... um..." His voice was tinged with doubt. I quickly stepped forward to embrace Christian, but his attention shifted to Adriana's lips.

"What happened to your lips, Adrian?" he inquired, narrowing his eyes in concern. I quickly interjected, "He slipped on the floor because I was careless and didn't clean it up." I lied, keeping my hands firmly on Christian's arms.

Christian's eyes briefly focused on Adriana's lips before returning to me, his gaze sharpening as if he could sense the underlying tension. "Please exercise more caution in the future," he advised, his tone both authoritative and kind.

I nodded in acknowledgment, striving to convey remorse, while Adriana remained quiet, her gaze fixed on Christian, revealing a blend of apprehension and intrigue.

Christian then redirected his attention to Adriana, his demeanor softening. "It seems you're still finding yourself in difficult situations, Adriana," he remarked, a subtle smile playing on his lips. Adrian looked down, mumbling something inaudible, his cheeks tinged with a faint blush.

Seek treatment for it before it leads to further complications, he acknowledged and left the room, leaving me alone with Christian.

I let out a deep sigh.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

"What brings you here, Alpha?" I inquired, anticipating his response, but he simply turned and exited the room, departing with more questions than answers.

I stood there, frozen in confusion, wondering what had just transpired. Christian's sudden departure left me with a sense of unease, and I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was off.

I turned to the mirror gazing at my reflection. "What was that about?" I asked, trying to keep my tone light.

I shrugged, my expression unreadable. "I don't know, but I think it's connected to Emily." I responded to myself.

I eagerly anticipated the moment I could confront her myself, especially since Adrian keeps making the same foolish errors. I sighed as I sank onto the bed, pulling the duvet over me, my mind flooded with various thoughts. She is Amira, not Emily; perhaps she is concealing her true identity. Nevertheless, I am resolute in my quest to uncover the truth. She's pretending.
