2024-10-29 19:42:56"Wh..What's going on?" Scarlett finally cried out as she looked down at herself to see what was happening but everything was how it used to be..
She was supposed to be morphing into her wolf not standing still like a soldier at attention. The clock had already struck twelve, twenty minutes ago and she was already twenty one. By right, she was supposed to have morphed into her wolf twenty minutes ago and by now she would be having her Luna ceremony but all of that was not happening.
Scarlett looked around with wide eyes and the look she saw on the faces of her pack members made her heart stop beating. When it did start beating again, it was fast like she was running a marathon.
Her breath clogged up in her throat when her eyes fell on her boyfriend and Alpha. Panic filled her and she felt like she couldn't breathe anymore when he shook his head then turned around to disappear into the dark of the night. The woman who had been standing beside him gave Scarlett an evil smirk before turning to follow after him.
She couldn't possibly, no, she couldn't possibly be among them right? When she did not get her wolf at age eighteen, the pack was happy. It only meant that her wolf fell into the category of stronger wolf's who could only get their wolves at twenty one.
Her eyes frantically searched the crowd and when it rested on her father's face, Scarlett nearly collapsed to the ground as what was happening finally registered in her head.
"Oh moon goddess, Scarlett is wolfless"
"That can't possibly be true. She is supposed to be a beta female"
"Oh please, can't you see? It's been twenty minutes and no one have ever delayed that long in getting their wolf unless they can't get a wolf"
" This is so sad. And to think that she was supposed to be Luna. Now we are stuck with evil Olivia"
" No no, that's not true. I'm not wolfless, my wolf is coming it's just taking a lot of time" Scarlett screamed frantically as she tried to assure the pack? Or herself?
Scarlett shivered as the cold wind blew, scattering her hair and blowing it forward to cover her face. She pushed it back as she closed her eyes and tried to concentrate and block out the pack's voices.
Scarlett tried to remember all the lessons she has been taught and she braced herself for the pain she has been told that comes along with getting one's wolf.
Nothing
Like before, nothing happened. There and then, Scarlett finally realized that everyone was right, she was wolfless. When she opened her eyes, she could see that some people were already leaving while some were giving her mocking eyes and others were throwing pitiful looks her way.
Scarlett grabbed her white gown and ran over to her father who was standing with his face white and pale with shock.
"Dad, it's a lie right? My wolf is coming" she grabbed his hands and shook his as her eyes frantically searched his, looking for assurance but he continued to look at her just like everyone else. With pity.
Her chin began to wobble and her eyes clouded with tears, "Dad, answer me!!" Scarlett burst into heavy sobs when her father did not respond and she collapsed to the ground, "it's a lie right? It's just a dream right? I'm still going to be Luna right?"
" Scarlett"
Scarlett felt a soft but familiar pair of arms wrapping around her. It was her best friend Willow and she was also crying
Scarlett turned around to grab Willow. Her eyes that were blurry with tears searched Willow's "it's a dream. I will wake up soon, right Willow??" She cried
Willow shook her head. Her body was also shaking as she cried alongside Scarlett, "I don't think it's a dream but I also wished It is. You couldn't get your wolf Scarlett"
" No," Scarlett yelled vehemently as she pushed Willow away like she was the curse of her problems, "It's all a lie. You are all liars, my wolf is coming, it's just taking time. I'm still going to be Liam's Luna, he promised"
Everything was going good for Scarlett. Before tonight, that is. Her father was the beta of the former and late alpha of the pack. She was her father's only child and was supposed to inherit his ability and have a beta wolf.
As she grew up, she took her fighting lessons seriously and she was amongst the hundreds of women in the pack that wished they would one day catch the eyes of their brooding but incredibly handsome alpha, Liam.
Scarlett nearly went crazy and she threw a small party at her house when she caught his eyes in the training field one day and when he asked her to be his girlfriend, her life was set. She was supposed to be his Luna and everyone was waiting for her to get her wolf.
Liam threw a big birthday party for her on her eighteenth birthday and the celebration exploded when she didn't get her wolf. It only meant that her wolf would come when she was twenty one and that she would be stronger but why was any of these not happening now?
In the history of werewolves, only one percent of them couldn't get their wolf. It rarely happened and the last time it did, it was over a thousand years ago.
Willow moved forward on her knees and grabbed Scarlett again in her arms. The best friends hugged themselves as they continued to cry.
Scarlett's eyes lit up with hope when she saw Liam coming back again and she didn't even notice that he now had Olivia hanging onto his arm like a leech nor did she notice the bright red stain of blood on his lips.
Scarlett shoved Willow aside and rushed over to him.
"Liam, it's not possible right? I'm getting my wolf soon and then I will become your Luna, right?" Scarlett asked as she tried to stare into his eyes and find the assurance that she needed but he was refusing to meet her eyes.
"I don't think that will be possible Scarlett" Liam told her
Scarlett felt her heart freezing with fear at how cold his voice sounded, "Wh… what do you mean by that?"
Liam finally turned his eyes to her, "You couldn't get your wolf. I can't have a Luna without a wolf so therefore I, Alpha Liam Watson of Blood moon pack rejects you, Scarlett Osborne as the mate I was supposed to have. Olivia is now my mate. I have marked her and she would be having her Luna ceremony in three days time"
Everything slowed to a stop for Scarlett as his words washed over her. She felt like the weight of the world was pressing down on her chest and she couldn't breathe as she fell to the ground.
Scarlett
remained on the floor, cold and numb as Liam turned away and left with a smiling Olivia. She was still there after everyone left.

Everything felt so surreal as Scarlett watched Liam leave with Olivia. Her father was that one that walked up to her and picked her up. She remained quiet and still all the way home. She was still quiet even after her father brought her to her room and dropped her on her bed. Quiet, when Willow helped her pull off her white gown and wiped her of the dirt that clung to her when she dropped to the ground. She had been like that for two days. Just lying on her bed and saying nothing. “There's nothing really wrong with her. She is just in shock. This phase will be over soon. maybe you can just tell her things you feel like would make her want to wake up” Scarlett could hear a familiar voice telling her father. “Thank you doctor” Scarlett's father, Aaron thanked the owner of the voice before turning to look at Scarlett who was on her back and staring at the ceiling. After the door shut behind the doctor, Aaron walked over to the bed and sat down. He took Scarlett's hand in his, “Scarle

“I didn't touch her, I swear. She was the one who threw herself down the stairs” Scarlett briefly explained when she spun around and saw Liam standing behind her with hardened eyes.Instead of replying to her, Liam shoved her out of the way and raced down to where a now bleeding Olivia was. Scarlett stumbled from the force of his push and would have fallen to the found had it not been for Willow, who caught her.Scarlett watched from the top of the stairs as Liam gathered Olivia into the arms he always used to hug her in the past.“You better pray to God that nothing happens to both her and my child” Liam told her before rushing out of the pack house.Scarlett froze, and her mouth dropped open in shock at Liam's words. When Olivia told her that she was pregnant with Liam's child, she thought it was a lie. Liam couldn't have cheated on her, but hearing it from his mouth now, she knew that it was true.She collapsed to the ground as hot tears filled her eyes. She suddenly felt like she

Liam did not turn around to face them, “what is going on is that Olivia lost my child, and she is in a critical condition right now”As the words about Olivia having a miscarriage sank into Scarlett's brain, she froze in shock. She recovered almost immediately and scrambled towards Liam on her hands and knees, “you know I could never push anyone down the stairs. I didn't even know that she was pregnant. Liam, believe me, I did not touch her”She was almost close to him when Liam's men caught her and pressed her down. She struggled, but couldn't release herself from their stronghold. It was useless. They were not just werewolves, they were trained fighters, while she was just a regular girl without a wolf. She could not escape from them. When Liam finally turned to face her, his face was cold and devoid of any emotions. He had never been one who smiled nor was one who expressed emotions, but Scarlett had never seen his eyes so cold before. She shivered as fear ran down her spine.“You
Chasing His Rejected Luna Pregnant
It's been two months already since two men rescued Scarlett and brought her to the city. Scarlett never heard from them, and when she asked the hotel's receptionist she did not get any meaningful information about who these men were.They not only paid for her stay at the hotel, they also asked the hotel to call a doctor for her and also got her new and warm clothes. After three days, she was able to get up from the bed and move about because of her werewolves blood.Scarlett did not have enough time, nor did she try to create one to sit down and think of her life. She wanted to forget everything like it was a bad memory. It was easier said than done. Not when she sees everything in her dream every time she closes her eyes. Not when every man who had dark hair and green eyes looked like Liam or every blonde-haired woman looked like the antagonist of her life story, Olivia.The money that was given to her by Liam was only enough to rent a small house in town and buy enough food to last
Chasing His Rejected Luna Abortion
After doctor Imelda's words, all the colors drained from Scarlett's face, but she immediately shook her head in denial, “I'm not pregnant, doctor. I think you should conduct another test” she couldn't have gotten pregnant from that one night she spent with Liam, right?Doctor Imedal gave a tired sigh like she expected this and has gone through stuff like this countless times, “you are pregnant, Miss Scarlett. I'm very sure of it” she explained slowly.Scarlett clasped her hands together as she immediately made a decision. There was no way she was keeping the baby. Liam wouldn't want the baby, and she didn't either. There was no way she was going to give birth to Liam's child. She didn't even have enough money to feed. How was she supposed to take care of a child? She was not even emotionally stable, either.Scarlett turned to Mr. Bandini, “can you give doctor Imelda and I some privacy? I want to discuss something with her” Mr. Bandini was on his feet before she completed her words, “

Scarlett's eyes turned cold, “and who are you to tell me what to do?” It was okay if he helped her, but it was not okay to poke his nose in her business or try to tell her what to do just because he helped her.“Your friend” he told her before moving close to the bed, “why don't you use my phone to call him? You might not be together with him anymore, but no man would want his child aborted. You can work out something with him for the child. Believe me, you don't want to kill an innocent child because of the issue you have with the father. You might regret it for the rest of your life”Scarlett went cold at Alex's last words: you might regret it for the rest of your life, and she lost her appetite. She pushed the remaining food away from her.He seemed to have noticed because he immediately apologized, “I'm sorry if I offended you with my words. I'm just trying to look out for you and make you think twice about your decision. Regret is not something I wish on anyone, not even on my en
Chasing His Rejected Luna she owes him her life
It's been three whole weeks since Scarlett found out that she was pregnant and decided to keep the child. Just as she thought, it wasn't easy for her. Doctor Imelda had told her the last time she went to the hospital for a check-up that she had noticed some abnormalities with the child, as it seemed like her baby was growing faster than a regular child.Scarlett knew that there was absolutely nothing wrong with her child. The only reason her baby was going quickly was because it was a werewolf baby. Werewolves gave birth faster than a regular human. She knew that she would go into labor at exactly seven months, but she could not tell the doctor that. There was nothing she could do about it, so she would just let them draw their conclusions when the time came.The pregnancy was not going easy on Scarlett as she not only had to go to work every day, she also had to battle with morning sickness and all the other troubles that came with being pregnant. She had nearly collapsed a few times

“Scarlett” doctor Imedal raised her head from the documents on her table to smile at Scarlett and Alex, “I'm glad you could make it”“Yeah, me too”“ I doubt you would have made it if I didn't come to drag you” Alex whispered for only Scarlett to hear, earning a glare from her.“Shut it” she snapped, making him snicker as they both took a seat in front of doctor Imelda.Scarlett had missed her appointment twice when she forgot about it. She did not have a phone and refused the one Alex bought for her, so he couldn't reach her; he went on a business trip. On her next appointment after that, doctor Imelda had not been happy and had told her countless times about why she should not miss her appointment again: her pregnancy did not look normal to doctor Imelda and her body was not well, she needed to be monitored.“Alright, let's move to checking the baby to see if he or she has decided to reveal their gender”With a deep sigh that was released through her mouth, Scarlett stood up and wal

Chasing His Rejected Luna THE END
There was no going back now. It's been six years since she agreed to drop all of her past behind and focus on her future which happened to be Marshall. Six fucking years since she let Scarlett convince her to follow her heart and be with Marshall and Marshall had never done anything to make her regret it.It was really funny how she was the one they convinced and pushed Scarlett to return back to Liam and years later, Scarlett did that same thing for her. She learned one lesson from this: it was wonderful to have good friends around that would push you to keep going when you wanted to give up. It was great to also be a good friend.Her life with Marshall has been filled with laughter, love, joy and different adventures. That night she had taken the bold step to first mark Marshall as hers was the first and not the last wonderful night she's had. The both of them had turned off their phones and spent the next three days just being together and getting to know more of each other. Ther
Chasing His Rejected Luna Marked and claimed him as hers
“You smelt and tracked me down? But I was with Harrison back then and second chances mates can never identify or smell each other while they are still with their first mate except after rejection or the other dies. If you really smelt me, why didn't I do the same?” A tiny frown creased Willow's brows as she thought back to the day Marshall first walked up to her in the garden. He had said that she was “Her”. She had thought he was referring to her being Harrison's mate, she thought wrong.This time, Willow let go of her fork, ignoring Marshall's disapproving look as she folded her hands across her chest.Marshall's eyes darted from her face to the fork, “You should eat.”“I need answers. I will eat when I've gotten them.” how did he know back then and she didn't?Marshall looked ready to argue but he thought better about it. “Fine. I'm not a regular werewolf like you and…”Willow interrupted him and asked the question that had been on her mind for the longest time, “What are you?” “
Chasing His Rejected Luna I've known that we were mates
Willow squirmed in her seat and her hand shook as she carried food to her mouth. After the deep toe curling kiss Marshall gave her at the door after convincing her to stay with him in the beach house for the next three days, they moved to the patio at the back of the beach house where their dinner was waiting for them. According to Marshall, there was an older woman in the house who prepared the food and set out the table. She left the moment he notified her that they were close to give them their privacy.Since they sat down to eat, Marshall had not taken his eyes off her. Not even when he was eating or reaching for his glass of wine. At first, she thought he would take his eyes off her but after eating a little of his food and emptying his glass of wine, he did not move to pour out more for himself. Instead, he set the glass and his fork down and placed his full attention on her, causing her to be uncomfortable.When Willow couldn't take it anymore and felt like he was purposely doin
Chasing His Rejected Luna Stay with me, sweetheart
“We are here."By the time they got to their destination, Marshall had made her come twice. Her body was shaking in pleasure and her mind was lost in ecstasy, he had to repeat himself.“We are here,” his voice was firmer, dragging her out of the haze she was in.Willow stiffened and her eyes that were closed in pleasure snapped open and she brought down her head that had been titled back to look out of the window as she tried to hard her red cheeks. She was surprised at the fact that he was speaking so calmly after making her come twice in a roll. He did all this while driving them to wherever it was that he was taking her to dinner. The man deserved a round of applause. She could feel her wolf just below the surface, fighting to be let out but Willow shoved her back down. Her wolf was super excited, she might push Willow to jump Marshall inside the car and it would just be so shameful when her wolf retreats later and leaves her alone. It wouldn't be so bad, they were mates after al
Chasing His Rejected Luna Moan for me, sweetheart
Willow halted in her steps as she came out of the pack house and found Marshall leaning against the hood of his car right outside the building. He has his hands shoved inside his pants pocket and his eyes that have been staring at the floor immediately looked up at her as if he smelt her and knew that she was standing there — maybe he did.“Why did you stop?” Scarlett who was beside her whispered.Willow cleared her throat but did not take her eyes off Marshall to look at her friend who she knew must be wearing a teasing expression right now, “Nothing,” she began to move after that. Taking the stairs one after the order, all her attention focused on putting one leg in front of the order and now dropping to the ground in a puddle because of the way Marshall was staring at her as she walked up to him.“Enjoy yourself and don't come back. Make babies, I'm old enough to be an aunty.” Scarlett who has stopped walking with Willow raised her voice and said just before Willow heard her recedi
Chasing His Rejected Luna The note
Willow grumbled under her breath as she dragged herself up from the bed and walked to the door to throw it open. After Scarlett left, she spent a few minutes or hours just staring at the ceiling with her kind roaming here and there, just thinking until she fell asleep. Now, she was woken up by loud knocks on her door. If she was not in the pack house, she would have known that it was one of the maids in the house, she just hoped that it was not about work. She risked a glance at the wall clock and saw that it was evening already. In an hour or two, it would be dark outside.Willow ran her hands through her hair to arrange it. She did it subconsciously and caught herself immediately. Why had she done that? It was just one of the workers knocking or even Scarlett so why would she try to arrange her appearance? No, she was not hoping that it was Marshall.“Oh, yes you are.” Her wolf taunted.“No, I'm not.” Willow snapped as she reached for the door knob.“I won't judge.” Her wolf snicker
Chasing His Rejected Luna Second chance at love
Willow frowned, “Then what would you say?”“Well,” Scarlett gave a little shrug of her shoulder as she looked away, “He wanted to see you so he is here.”“And I would say you are lying, Scarlett.” Willow said as she shot Scarlett a hard glare.Scarlett looked at her then, “Does it really matter how he got here, Willow? What matters is that he is here and he is your second chance mate. Even if I was not expecting it, it's a bonus point. This is your opportunity, Willow. Your opportunity to find happiness. Let go of your past and embrace your future.”“He has a fucking chosen mate, Scarlett. Like Harrison, he already has a mate so there is no embracing of the future here.” Willow's voice shook at the end and she felt pressure at the back of her eyes.Scarlett frowned at her, “What mate are we talking about here?”“Don't act like you don't know the mate I'm talking about. Rumi!” Willow snapped, her heart twisting with pain.“So you were really serious when you said you were going to be s
Chasing His Rejected Luna Marshall
Willow's heartbeat immediately picked up speed and began to beat wild and fast against her ribcage. Her heart was threatening to burst and spill out of her chest. Willow has only felt like this once in her life and that was the day she met Harrison and found out that he was her mate and the person she was destined to love and be with for the rest of her life. She was feeling like that again because of one person and it was this unknown alpha who was sitting with his back to her and talking to Liam.Willow had the urge to run up to him and curl up into his arms, sniff his scent and claim him as hers but she squeezed her hands into fists and held herself back. No way in hell was she going to be taking in a second chance mate, not after everything that happened between her and Harrison. She was going to move on with her life like she was already doing without looking back. Who knows if this alpha already have a mate too? Wolf forced her wolf down and warned her to behave.Willow knew th
