Alpha’s Vow: Reclaiming his lost Luna
Chapter 21
Cyrus is gripping the steering wheel of his car hoping to finally find the person he's been looking for.
The pure-blood alpha doesn't even know why he is still searching for the person who already left them years ago.
He hates himself for going through all the trouble just to find her when he knows that Aria left on her own accord!
"So...I assume you have a plan for when we eventually find her there., care to share?" Dylan breaks the tense silence in the car because he feels like he's about to explode taking in the distressed scent of his cousin.
Cyrus lets go of the breath he didn’t even know he was holding. He also relaxes a little in his seat behind the steering wheel.
"I...I really don't know Dylan. I just need to see her." Cyrus hates how he can't keep his mouth shut whenever he talks to his older cousin.
He is not sure if Dylan is one of those gifted by the moon who has the ability to compel people to be honest because he feels like he is.
"That's a good plan, kiddo, but we need something a little more specific, a more solid plan." Dylan scoffed because he couldn’t believe Cyrus left his daughter at home just to find Aria only to know that all he wanted to do was see the omega.
"I know… I know...but I can't just give myself another false hope. What if Dad was right? What if Alex and the rest of them are telling the truth? That she left us. There's no other reason for her to leave Dylan unless..."
"The mark engraved in your skin is more than enough reason for you to hope Cyrus. I thought you already knew that you know the law of nature, and the mark of the Moon would never betray you. Always remember that." Dylan says before he reclines the chair because, to be honest, he is getting frustrated for his cousin too.
He doesn't want to give him a false hope. He doesn't want to see him suffer again like Aria suddenly vanished but Dylan has known the omega too.
He knows that Aria would never exchange his family for a career or any amount of fortune just like how Alex and Julius told Cyrus when they showed him the divorce paper and letter from the omega.
The only question in Dylan's mind is, what actually made Aria leave? Who made her leave? And why the hell would she suddenly appear only to hide again?!
The older alpha fell asleep with a lot of thoughts in his head. He is surprised when Cyrus wakes him up after a few hours because they finally arrived at her hometown.
"Dylan, we're here." Cyrus pointed at the restaurant that turned into a cozy bar at night.
Lucas Monroe almost cried not only because of the beautiful gift that the Omega had gifted him but because he was beyond happy that she finally returned home.
Lucas is one of the few people who got worried and grieved when Aria suddenly vanished.
He also tried to contact Alex and Rina since he knows the two are Aria’s friends but they just simply gave him vague replies before they cut him off.
"I can't believe you still came to look for me. Look at you, still so beautiful." Lucas pulled the younger for another hug because he truly missed his baby sister.
"I missed you so much, too. You are as handsome as always. I missed your pasta & steak!" Aria uttered, trying not to cry because of the sudden nostalgia of coming back to the place where she first started a place that felt like home.
"Oh right, you still love those. I will cook them for you and this handsome gentleman here only if you will grace me one song. I missed seeing you sing on that tiny stage." Lucas pointed to the makeshift stage at the center of the restaurant.
"Woah, come on Ria...you wouldn't say no to your brother right?" Knight tries to convince her.
Aria stares at the stage and the grand piano on the side for a while before a tiny smile breaks into his lips.
"I actually wrote a new song when I met that little girl in the restaurant. Do you want me to play it here?" Aria smiled at the two older men.
"Of course! We'll love that." Knight quickly replied with a big smile.
"The stage is yours Ria!" Lucas even ushered her to where the piano was before he led Knight to the vacant table closest to the stage.
Aria can't help but smile giddily thinking that she's really going to play the piano in front of an audience while singing a new song.
"Go, Ivy!" Knight even whistled when Aria finally uncovered the keys of the piano.
Aria closes her eyes the moment her fingers touch the ivory keys of the musical instrument. She is more than aware that there are many people in the restaurant who are curious about what she has planned.
He hears some murmuring and whispering, but she is more focused on how Knight is encouraging her.
The omega couldn’t help but smile thinking that it really was time for her to move on.
She starts to sing as she plays the beautiful melody on the piano.
The audience is in awe not only with the beautiful melody coming from the piano but most especially her honey-like voice singing the song she recently wrote.
Knight's eyes never left Aria on stage so he saw how the Omega suddenly froze on his seat. The melody suddenly stopped in the middle of the song as the omega snapped her head towards the entrance of the restaurant.
Aria has never been so quick to turn around the moment she takes a whiff of the familiar scent of a pure-blood alpha that never fails to make her weak. the scent that once brought comfort and then heartbreak.
It may have been 3 years since she last saw Cyrus, it might have been 3 years since she last smelled that scent but it would take her a lifetime to forget the only scent that can make his wolf feel so alive.
"Cyrus?."
Aria whispered to herself only to regret it right after because the said man suddenly lifted his gaze and found her eyes focused on her too.
"Aria?."
