LUNA: Alpha’s Soulmate from Another World

Mylonas Capital (1)



Luna breathed a sigh of relief. After a rather long journey, they finally arrived at the main entrance gate of Mylonas Capital, the capital of the Vasilos Empire, located in the city of Anqyra-a city in the Vasilos Empire that directly borders the territory of Foryeust. She groaned and yawned while watching Ghea, who was busy preparing all their arrival documents to present to the gate guards.

Luna then shifted her gaze to the front window of the carriage, focusing on the coachman’s seat where Ghea’s brother, George, was sitting upright, holding the reins of the horses tightly. Her eyes accidentally caught sight of George’s pointed ears, indicating that he was a Fae and not an ordinary human like herself.

She raised her hand and touched her ears, remembering her introduction to George a few days ago, which had successfully made her cheeks blush. How could she not? The man looked handsome with his emerald green eyes and charming smile. He didn’t even mind her joining them in Mylonas. George treated her like a gentleman, never selfish.

Luna could also see how close Ghea and George were, indicating that their sibling bond was very strong. Sometimes, seeing their interactions made Luna feel sad and envious of Ghea. But it didn’t matter as long as she had Nicole and her own best friend, Maya. Luna didn’t need siblings. She had lived alone for a long time and had often seen sibling relationships, so why should she feel sad and envious?

She quickly dismissed those thoughts from her mind, then looked down and checked the simple, soft blue dress she was wearing before turning her head to look out the window, where rows of two-story houses stood neatly. Some of the buildings were shops bustling with customers.

Luna still couldn’t believe she was seeing the scenery in front of her eyes in real life, as she thought all of this only happened in movies or fairy tale worlds. She reached out and placed her hand on the carriage window. Although the carriage they were riding was considered ordinary, not everyone liked using carriages. After all, why use a carriage when there was teleportation magic?

Teleportation magic. Luna remembered the sensation of using that magic for the first time. When she entered the bluish-white light portal, her body felt like invisible hands were pulling it, and she felt the gravity leave her body.

Although it was only for a few seconds, she felt like her head was going to explode. Even inside the teleportation portal, with her eyes closed, she could still feel the sharp light piercing her eyes. Then, the after-effects of using teleportation were really unpleasant.

Nausea, dizziness, and weakness attacked her body multiple times worse than when she had a fever and flu. Ghea said the effects she felt were normal because it was her first time experiencing teleportation magic. If done continuously, her body would start to get used to it until the effects reduced and eventually disappeared.

At least with teleportation, their journey became shorter, and Luna could sleep in the carriage as much as she wanted after using teleportation.

“Luna, are you alright?” Ghea’s voice brought Luna out of her reverie. She blinked and directed her brown eyes to Ghea’s blue ones, which were looking at her with concern.

“Do you still feel the effects of teleportation magic? Is it because your body hasn’t adjusted to this world yet that you’re still feeling the effects?” Ghea asked, her voice full of worry.

Luna shook her head. “No, really, I’m fine. The herbal potion you gave me for the past two days made me feel better, even more refreshed than before. Besides, three days of experiencing the effects? I’m not that weak. Don’t worry.”

Luna looked out the carriage window and murmured, “It’s just that I still can’t believe that besides my world, there are other worlds. No wonder I was curious about where all the myths of werewolves, fae, vampires, and supernatural beings came from. Humans couldn’t have just made them up. There must have been a time when they saw supernatural beings.”

Ghea nodded with great interest. “Tell me about your world, Luna. What do you usually do, and how about your family?”

Luna smiled sadly and leaned back in the soft and comfortable carriage seat. For an ordinary carriage, this seat felt very cozy. Luna closed her eyes for a moment and thought. “The city where I live is very busy. It’s never quiet from the hustle and bustle of life. Skyscrapers stand tall, competing to be the most magnificent.”

“Skyscrapers?” Ghea asked, raising her eyebrows.

“Yes. Buildings that are very tall and dominated by glass. They are places where people work and become slaves.”

“Slaves?” Ghea asked, clearly puzzled.

Luna smiled bitterly. “Yes, slaves to time and corporations.” Luna cleared her throat and continued, “You could say my world is not as peaceful as this. The sky is filled with pollution, factories, technology, cars, airplanes. You know, we use objects to fly from one continent to another.”

Ghea shook her head in amazement. “Really? No teleportation magic?”

Luna shook her head quickly, “No, none. All the things I mentioned earlier are human inventions.”

“Objects that are very large and heavy, but can fly in the air. I can say that’s a miracle. In my world, there are no more horse-drawn carriages because using horses is considered animal cruelty.” Ghea furrowed her brow, looking ahead before turning back to Luna with an understanding look.

“And don’t forget mobile phones. Honestly, there are many astonishing things in my world.” Luna paused for a moment and looked at Ghea’s radiant face. “Regarding my life, I don’t know if it’s considered lucky or not. Being a well-known person means I can’t have any privacy.”

“You… in your world, you’re quite famous?” Ghea asked, her eyes widening.

Luna shrugged nonchalantly and smiled, “Believe me, spending a few days here is much better for me than being a famous woman.”

She let out a deep sigh and murmured, “As for family… I don’t have one. I don’t know who my parents are, and I was raised in an orphanage.”

“I’m sorry, Luna,” Ghea said softly.

“No, no. I’ve accepted my situation a long time ago. With my circumstances, I can stand on my own without anyone’s help, and I’m happy with my life now. Besides, now I have two friends who care about me.”

Luna shrugged nonchalantly and smiled, “Believe me, spending a few days here is much better for me than being a famous woman in my world.”

Luna took a deep breath and murmured, “As for family… I don’t have one. I don’t know who my parents are, and I was raised in an orphanage.”

Ghea looked at her with pity. “I’m sorry, Luna.”

“No. No need. I’ve accepted my situation a long time ago. With my circumstances, I can stand on my own without anyone’s help, and I’m happy with my life now. Besides, now I have two friends who care about me,” Luna said with a warm smile.

Suddenly, the sound of a horse neighing was heard, and shortly after, the carriage came to a stop. Luna and Ghea exchanged looks and nodded, understanding that their conversation had to pause for a moment. They also remembered hiding Luna’s identity as a dimensional traveler. There was a knock on the carriage door three times, and Ghea slowly opened the door and got out.

Luna waited in the carriage for quite a while, and fifteen minutes later, Ghea returned with a relieved smile. Luna felt the carriage start moving again, and that was when she realized that the gate guards had allowed them into the capital. “What did you say about me?”

“About that… George has prepared new documents for you, stating that you are a resident of Foryeust.”

Luna was surprised. “How is that possible? When? Why…?”

“Don’t worry,” Ghea said with a smile. “My brother has connections in the Foryeust population department. He just needed to explain a little and provide a service fee, and you got new documents.”

“But we left two days after my arrival in this world… how could it be so fast?”

“The population system in Rhodes is very reliable. You just need to report a birth or death, and within an hour, all documents are ready. So don’t worry. Oh, and to hide your real name, I changed your name on the identity card to Luna. So no one will be suspicious if I call you Luna, because your name and Foryeust accent can deceive the werewolves. I just don’t want you to be misunderstood.”

“Thank you, Ghea. Truly.” Luna then opened the front window and murmured her thanks to George. After that, she asked Ghea, “So where are we going after this?”

“While George meets his business client, how about we go to the market and… Luna?” Ghea called out to Luna, who was busy admiring the view from the window.

One word Luna could use to describe Mylonas Capital: Amazing. Absolutely amazing. Mylonas City looked a lot like Zurich in Switzerland with its old, traditional, and classic buildings.

The statues adorned the city, the shops, the birds flying in the sky, the restaurants with outdoor seating, and Luna even saw a river in the distance with a beautiful bridge, minus the office buildings, monorail trains, cars, and people in modern clothes.

No wonder many humans who come to this world choose to settle in Mylonas because it feels like they are not in another world but in Zurich. Even Luna, who had only been to Zurich once for work, admitted that it felt like she was back in Zurich and not in Mylonas.

Luna felt her heart pounding and her eyes heating up. Her body trembled, and moments later, she shed tears. Ghea noticed with concern. “Luna, are you crying?”

Luna laughed and moved away. She immediately wiped the tears running down her cheeks. She said, “Mylonas is very similar to one of the cities in my world.”

“Really?” asked Ghea, her eyes wide with curiosity.

“Yes,” Luna replied, looking out the window at the rows of classic-style buildings lining the street. “It’s amazing how this world has a little resemblance to where I come from. Is the bridge spanning the river a tourist spot? It looks very crowded.” Luna asked, pointing to the bridge she saw.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Ghea shook her head and answered, “Actually, no. It’s just an ordinary bridge, but soon it will be the Moon Flower festival. I heard many Mylonas residents come to the bridge to throw their moon flowers with their partners, so at the peak of the festival, the river will be decorated with the golden petals of the moon flowers.”

“Wow,” said Luna, her eyes sparkling.

“And where is the imperial palace? Mylonas is the administrative center of Vasilos, isn’t it?” asked Luna.

Ghea was about to answer when the carriage stopped, and shortly after, the door opened. George, with his sweet smile, immediately greeted the two pairs of eyes that were chatting inside the carriage. The man’s tousled blond hair looked so fitting on his handsome face. “We’ve arrived. Are you sure you don’t want to be dropped off at the inn?”

“I want to take our guest for a little tour,” Ghea replied with a soft chuckle. “Now, Luna, I’ll take you to the market and see the imperial palace. Didn’t you ask where it was?”

“Is that possible?” Luna asked enthusiastically.

George chuckled softly and, this time answered Luna’s question, “The imperial palace is so large and vast. And the market is near the town square. If you go to the town square, you can see the imperial palace from a distance.”

“Come on, Luna! You won’t regret going to the Mylonas market,” Ghea exclaimed excitedly as she got off the carriage.

Luna laughed and nodded before following her down. “Alright, let’s go!”
