Truth Or Truth

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.

I raised the glass of wine to my lips and sipped at it, not looking away from the TV screen, it was a wrestling match and I loved it.

"Audrey" Mom called, I heard her steps approaching afterwards. I crumpled my face.

"Don't tell me you're not in bed yet"

I turned to her and grinned widely.

"Come on, Mi Cha" She called me by my native name. She walked towards the TV and turned it off.

Yeah,

I was quiet expecting that.

"You just arrived from the States not quite long ago, so you ought to be resting" She coaxed, walking close to me. "And besides, remember you've a great day ahead of you" She smiled lovingly. I rolled my eyes.

I dropped Chelsea- my pet, on the floor and stood up.

"Don't remind me, mom" I said sternly.

She slowly held my hand and smiled ruefully. "Audrey, I'm very much aware you don't like to school here, and you also know how much I don't like being in the States" Her voice breaks as she talks. "It reminds me of memories..."

"It's okay, mom" I forced a little smile.

The last thing I wanted to see at that moment was her tears. "I will school here in Korea, I will fulfill your wish" I said to her and smiled covered up her face, instantly.

"That's my baby girl" She pecked my cheeks, joyously.

"I already got everything prepared"

"And I'm sure you would love their school uniform" I smiled perfunctorily to cover how displeased I was.

I hate Korea.

"Alright mom, I'll just go to bed then" I announced. "Sure, sweetheart" I pecked her both cheeks and walked away.

"Sweet dreams, mom" I said aloud as I ascended the stairs, along with Chelsea.

"You too, dear"

I plonked myself into the bed.

I just had a long bath, I felt really good.

A little introduction will do.

I'm Mi Cha Kim but I loved to be called Audrey, my foreign name. Some would even call me 'Beauty'

Yeah, I'm a young pretty lady and I normally boast for it, all thanks to my woman.

I will clock eighteen in few months time, so you could say I'm eighteen years old already.

Truly, I was born and brought up here in South Korea. But I still prefer being in the States and that's why I visit often, I despise Korea so much and which the reason is still unknown to me.

I just returned after a long vacation with my Aunt in the States. I had a great time, indeed.

Mom doesn't like the States because that was where she met my irresponsible father. I was barely five years old when he left us all alone. And that's the major reason I became fiery till today.
