Caged to the Billionaire

The Rise Of The Ugly Luna

Syra Tucker

Lyric had spent her life being hated. Bullied for her scarred face and hated by everyone-including her own mate-she was always told she was ugly. Her mate only kept her around to gain territory, and the moment he got what he wanted, he rejected her, leaving her broken and alone. Then, she met him. The first man to call her beautiful. The first man to show her what it felt like to be loved. It was only one night, but it changed everything. For Lyric, he was a saint, a savior. For him, she was the only woman that had ever made him cum in bed-a problem he had been battling for years. Lyric thought her life would finally be different, but like everyone else in her life, he lied. And when she found out who he really was, she realized he wasn't just dangerous-he was the kind of man you don't escape from. Lyric wanted to run. She wanted freedom. But she desired to navigate her way and take back her respect, to rise above the ashes. Eventually, she was forced into a dark world she didn't wish to get involved with.

The thrumming energy of the airport was palpable as Alexandra Monroe stepped onto the familiar grounds of her home city. After completing her Master's degree in Business Administration abroad, she was back to the comforting embrace of her family and friends.

"Alexandra!" a familiar voice rang through the bustling airport. Alex turned to see her parents, Richard and Isabella Monroe, rushing towards her with open arms.

"Dad! Mom!" she exclaimed, dropping her luggage and rushing into their arms. The warm family reunion was a much-needed comfort after her long flight.

As they drove back home, Alex's parents asked her about her life abroad. She narrated her experiences, from her struggles to the triumphs, the new friends she had made, and the culture she had absorbed.

"You've grown so much, Alexandra," Richard said, a hint of pride in his voice.

Once they were back at the Monroe mansion, Alex was met with another surprise. Her friends, who she hadn't seen since she left for her studies, had planned a welcome home party for her.

"Alex!" her friend Lucy squealed as she pulled her into a tight hug, "We missed you so much!"

"Yeah, the city wasn't the same without you," Mark, another friend, added with a smile.

Alex laughed, hugging each of her friends. "I missed you guys too. It's great to be back."

That night, Alex found herself amidst the familiar faces of her childhood friends, the city's skyline serving as the backdrop to their grand celebration. As she danced and laughed the night away, she couldn't help but feel grateful for the love and support of her friends and family.

Alexandra "Alex" Monroe is a sparkling gem of a woman at the tender age of 22. She's petite, standing at 5'5", with a lithe, dancer's body that speaks of grace and agility. Her hair, a torrent of vibrant chestnut waves, tumbles down to her mid-back, shimmering in the sunlight like a cascade of molten amber.

At the party, it was in full swing, laughter and music filling the air. Alex found herself surrounded by her friends, enjoying the familiarity and warmth of their company.
