Reincarnated Into The Darkness

⊹ ₊ Chapter 38₊ ⊹

Luna Martin

Everything is black. Dark.

Where am I?

I heard my alarm ring. I popped my eyes open to see an unknown place yet familiar.

It is my apartment. . .

All the memories came back again as I recalled my life at the novel. Darcy.

Darcy. I left Darcy. I left the one I love dearly. How could I do something so selfish.

Argh. Fuck it hurts. My head-!

I checked today's date snd it's. . .the day of my first day at job. I clearly remember, I had given an interview without telling Alan because I knew he would make a fuss about it.

I did not see the day of my job because I had died before that. I died a week ago but I travelled in time which means, today is my first day at the job.

Fuck, I cannot be late!

_

That's right. I am Luna Martin from now on, again. I have no man in my life. Not Alan, not Darcy, not anyone.

I have to live my life on my own. I will work harder but I know deep down, Darcy will forever be with me, in my heart.

"Miss Martin." A middle-aged woman called out my name and I raised my hand.

She gestured me to follow her.

I went with her and she introduced me to all my colleagues that I would be working with for I don't know how many years.

"Hello everyone, I am Luna Martin and I will working on the IT department starting today. I hope I will make a good impression and get familiar with each and everyone." I smiled and everyone clapped.

That's a very good start.

I was a bit nervous at first as I was having a hard time settling into my new workspace. I carefully read all the office policies and procedures so that I do not make any mistake.

I asked many questions and some were definitely dumb questions but my colleagues were generous enough to answer all of them.

I was missing my life as Katherine De Windsor. Only sleep, eat and greet the nobles. Life were fun like that. I wish I could stay there longer but I guess not.

"Mrs. Martin." I heard my name coming from the back. I turned back to see my boss.

He is old, his grey hair is telling me he has aged a lot but his height and body looks like a young man which makes him a boss.

"Good evening, Sir." I smiled making the best impression as possible.

"I see you have been cooperating well with your new colleagues." He smiled back.

"It wouldn't be possible if they weren't kind enough to help me out." I said as my Katherine tone slipped out.

Was I being too formal.

He chuckled, "Impressive. But I am your Boss, not Your King, no need to be too formal."

I nodded and smiled.

"Dinner tonight everyone? To welcome Mrs. Martin?" My boss shouted and everyone squealed.

"You are the best Boss!" Everyone said in a sync which made me feel a lot better.

It is rather hard to adjust myself into something that I have missed and I have to do it. I told Darcy, I will live well and I cannot let myself die anymore.

"And-" the woman beside my burped making everyone feel disgusted. "I am giving thousands of signs for him to propose to me! Is he a dummy?!"

She is definitely drunk.

Everybody ignored her. I was drinking my second glass, still sober. I was always good at holding my liquor but I didn't feel like drinking today.

"Miss. Luna, do you have a boyfriend?" A girl who looks younger than me, asked.

I chunk the whole beer and said, "I do." I smiled. "I do have a husband."

Everybody's eyes widened. They looked at eachother then on my ring finger. They were exchanging glances probably wondering why there isn't a ring if I am married.

"I think its a bit personal but-"

"Stop it! Who cares? Lets enjoy the night." A guy stopped her and changed the topic making me relief.

Everyone might see me as widow but I am never getting married.
N-E-V-E-R.

I was on my sixth glass when I couldn't even take it. Everyone could hold their liquor but I was at my limit.

"I-... I will take my leave now." I said as I stood up.

"You cannot possibly go alone?" The woman asked.

"I can take the metro." I said as I couldn't stand up for long.

"I will help." A guy stood up who had been quiet for a long time.

"No. It is alright." Last thing that I want is a guy to take me home.

"You cannot be alone-"

"I can. I can be alone." I said and I left without anyone. I have been here before and I can survive on my own.

I, Luna Martin, can live her life without anyone.
