Lahat ng Kabanata ng Reborn for vengeance: From ashes to Luna : Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

ADIRA'S POV I had barely stepped into Grandpa Alan’s office when Mrs. Willow sprang to her feet. “You! How dare you go around the pack acting like you own it!” She yelled, her face contorted in fury. I stopped in my tracks, my eyebrows furrowed. She was fuming so hard the vein on her head was about to pop. “What is it again this time?” I thought to myself. I made sure to not leave my room until all of them had already left the house. And now that I was on my way to go on a picnic with Lumina and the omegas, somehow trouble still finds me. “What is going on?” I asked, looking around the office. Grandpa Alan, Beta Atlas, and Ryder were seated in the office. “What has happened again? Why can’t I just have some peace in this pack?” I thought to myself. “Mrs. Willow, can you please sit down? This is a peaceful meeting.” Grandpa Alan said to her. She glared at me, hissed, and went to sit down. “Am I on some sort of trial?” I asked. “Well, it's nothing like that, Adira. We got a

ADIRA'S POV Lumina was already asleep in her room, but I couldn't sleep. Something bothered me. In my past life there wasn't a Luna trial. Ryder and the pack members had hated me, but no one ever pushed for a Luna trial. I sighed deeply and got up from my bed. I needed to clear my head in order to be able to sleep. “Let's go to the back garden. You always found peace there.” My wolf suggested. “We are already in our nightwear, and the garden is close to Ryder's room. What if we run into him? I really don't want to deal with him right now.” “It's already late; I am sure he will be asleep already.” My wolf said. I tapped on my phone and checked the time. It was currently 11:18. “Yeah, he should be asleep by now,” I thought to myself. I picked a cardigan and wore it over my nightwear, wore my slippers, and left the room after making sure that Lumina was well covered. I gently made my way down the stairs and through the door that led to the garden. The moon shone brightly, ca

ADIRA'S POV“Lady Adira…” a voice called out to me.I snapped my head to the side to find Rose. She looked at me with pity and concern.“Are you okay?” she asked.I nodded.“You don't look okay,” she muttered.I flashed her a reassuring smile, but I was internally freaking out.I had thought about how it would feel to be put on this Luna trial, and I thought it wasn't a big deal. But now that it was glaring in my face, my resolve was starting to falter.To put it simply, I was scared. I thought coming back to life meant that I was now stronger and fearless, but the truth was that I am still the same girl. I was still Adira, only wiser now.And that realisation scared me. This Luna trial was even more scary because it didn't happen in my past life, so now I have nothing to look back to. I had to figure it out on my own.“Mama…” I heard Lumina’s sweet gurgle.I turned to where the sound was coming from, and her nanny was walking towards me. Lumina’s hands were stretched towards me with

ADIRA'S POV I had entered the office scared, but I managed to turn the tide; now it was against them.I watched Ryder with a smirk playing on my lips. He looked back at me, the dissatisfaction clear on his face. But I couldn't understand why he looked at me with those eyes…Did he want the Luna trial to hold or not? Just last night he had been pretending to be worried, but now…“He clearly wants it to hold. When has he ever done something that wouldn't put us in pain? He is probably angry because you managed to change the way the test will be held.” My wolf hissed.“That's right.” I said in agreement.Ryder cleared his throat. “Fine…” he said after hesitating. “The pack elders will organise it immediately. It will commence in the next three hours.” He ordered. “Yes, Alpha.” Everyone except Grandpa Alan chorused.Elder Theo looked at me, his lips curled in an evil smirk. ”I will see you at the hall, Lady Adira.” “Of course, Elder Theo.” I replied with a grin.I left the office imme

RYDER'S POVThe loud screams and echoes of happiness in the hall still resonated in my ears as I walked away from the hall.I should have felt proud. I should have been relieved that the trials were over, that Adira had emerged victorious in her own right.Instead, I felt… unsettled.Maybe because today I saw a part of her that I had never seen before. The audacious, bold, and smart part of her. It wasn't the meek and humble girl who was ready to do anything to be with me, nor the untamed Adira who suddenly refused to marry me.This was different. Every answer she gave back in that hall resonated with people. She sounded like a true leader. She had not needed me, and for reasons I refused to dwell on, that stung more than I cared to admit.“Are you finally seeing her for who she truly is?” my wolf asked.“I only said I saw a different side of her today. She sounded mature and bold, like a leader, like an Alpha's daughter. But that doesn't mean that she isn't a green snake in the green
