The Alpha's Cursed Luna
Synopsis: Amara hid her beauty since she was young. Her mother told her that her beauty might become her ruin, therefore she wore a mask and hid the scar that her mother had given her. When she met Gerard who accepted her despite her ugliness, she believed he was the man destined for her. But her fantasy was mercilessly broken after her lover sold her to an old nobleman for a pouch of gold coins. She then met Azer, a man working at a bakery. Azer, who strikes her as a mysterious guy who suddenly appeared and invaded her broken heart which she swore to never let be swayed by another again, kept pouring her attention and kindness. Can Amara trust a man again? Or will she forever cage her heart on the walls she built herself? But what happens if, along the way of treasuring her newfound love, she learns that the scar she bears isn't just a simple scar, but a mark of a curse? As she gathers and unfolds the hidden and lost memories of her childhood, slowly, her identity is revealed. And so does the mystery surrounding Azer. --- This novel is the next series after the story of Kyden and Mona [Summoned by a Pretend Villainess].

54. Mask and figurine [4]
"Just as how much as you love that red-haired woman, I, too, am willing to turn my back against the goddess' hands."
When those words registered in Azer's head, he sprung up and almost threw himself to Dionne. Veins popped in his neck, and his eyes darkened. The anger was visible in his eyes, and his face changed.
Azer clenched his fists. His anger wouldn't have subsided if the figurine he held in hand hadn't cracked slightly. He placed it above the table, and then he paced back and forth, weighing what words he should say. At the back of his head, Dayne was surprisingly quiet.
Azer wondered why he was upset. Isn't the situation favorable to him? He doesn't need to think about the consequences of rejecting her; she was the one who suggested the mate rejection. She'll be the one who suffers.
