Luna for Alpha Lorenzo

While I Was Bleeding Out, He Lit Lanterns For Her

Katie Oettgen

As I lay on the floor of our manor, bleeding out from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, I used my last ounce of strength to call my husband, Cole. I begged him for help, my vision blurring. But the only thing I heard was the clinking of champagne glasses and his mistress's giggle in the background. "Stop the drama, June," Cole snapped, his voice cold. "We're about to go on stage. Don't call again." He hung up, leaving me to die alone on the Persian rug while he accepted an award with another woman on his arm. I woke up in the hospital days later. My baby was gone. They had removed my fallopian tube. Cole finally arrived, smelling of expensive scotch and his mistress's perfume. He didn't hug me. He didn't cry. Instead, he leaned over my hospital bed, pressing his knee into the mattress until my fresh stitches tore open and bled. "You embarrassed me by calling an ambulance," he hissed. "My mistress, Alycia, says you're faking it. Clean yourself up." He left me bleeding again to go announce a $10 million donation to Alycia's "groundbreaking" medical research. I stared at the TV screen, numb. The research Alycia was taking credit for? It was mine. I wrote that patent years ago under a pseudonym. They thought I was just a poor, orphan housewife who needed Cole's money to survive. They had no idea I was actually a billionaire scientist hiding my identity. I pulled the IV needle out of my arm. A drop of blood fell onto the divorce papers I had been hiding. I didn't wipe it off. I signed my name right over it. Then I walked into the bank, reactivated my dormant account with $128 million, and bought the penthouse directly overlooking Cole's house. The mourning widow is dead. The avenger is born.

“Serena, have you completely prepared all the food on the Royal family table.”

“Oh sorry madam, I forgot that, and I'm going to go straight to the kitchen right now to get all the things.”

“Gosh, you're going too far, let's quickly prepare everything before the royal members come.”

Lately, Serena has lost her focus and daydreaming because she has fallen in love with a truly wonderful man.

Prince Julian is a tremendous Alpha from the kingdom of Aldebaran, He is very handsome, charismatic, brave, always wins any battle, and smart at economic strategy and warfare.

It seems like a dream come true for Serena.

At the first sight, Serena felt attracted to him, but could it be true for her to have such a wonderful man? Because he swept her feet.

It seemed impossible to her since she was also just a servant of the kingdom, she thought the prince couldn't possibly fall in love with her.

From the outside, it looks like Prince Julian with a black horse and his entourage came.

“Everyone hurries to tidy up the kitchen because Prince Julian and his troops have arrived, be prepared!”

The chief cook immediately ordered all the royal servants to tidy up everything, including Serena because they were about to welcome their Prince.

“It's not like the crown prince usually comes to this place because he's never done this before.”

The royal servants were confused because of the presence of Prince Julian, who along with other important groups came to the royal kitchen, which was usually never visited by other royal members.

Then Prince Julian immediately entered the royal kitchen with some of his troops.

“Good morning grand noble, what's the point of coming to the royal kitchen?” The head cook immediately greeted the crown prince respectfully and immediately asked the purpose of his arrival.

“Yes I need some information from all of you, yesterday I saw a girl preparing lunch for the royal family, the girl has long hair, and beautiful beauty, with the white skin as smooth as silk, is she in this place?”

The head cook and the royal servants were awed by what had happened, they were afraid if there had been an unwanted mistake or misunderstanding.

They were fearful to answer the various questions from the handsome crown prince, and they seemed silent, they were afraid that maybe one of them would be executed.

“That's okay, don't be afraid, I'm just looking for her.”

Then there was Serena, who had just finished her work, and Prince Julian couldn't stop staring at her.

“Hey, you beautiful woman, come here quickly!”

“Is that me?” Serena looked confused, and she kept looking around no one else was around.

“Yes, that's you, come quickly, come closer to the Prince.”

Serena quickly approached Prince Julian, and she was feeling very nervous.

“Wow you are so perfect, a beautiful girl, I don't care whether you are with someone or not because I fell in love with you from the first time I saw you.” Prince Julian Can't stop gazing at Serena.
