Chasing His Rejected Luna 133
ATLASThe whole interaction with Jade felt like a fever dream to me. I couldn’t accept that it was real. Eve after watching her take that man’s hand and walking away with him.I have no idea what held me back from following her, taking her form him and forcing her to docile with him, but I stood there, like a fucking clown as she walks off with the an, leaving me with the damned security that looked too happy to witness what was going on.“Sir, please. We don’t want to be forced to call the police.” One of the said, pointing at the door.I weighed the options in my head. They couldn’t do anything fucking thing to me if I wanted to go in there and see Jade.Except, she doesn’t want to see me. She saw me and she still left.I didn’t expect her to jump into my arms, but I expected a moment to explain what happened. In private. I wasn’t going to talk about something that affected the both of in front of an audience.“Sir.” I blinked myself away from my thoughts and nodded at the man, then

JADE Even though I told Antonio that I was fine ad I pretended I was. I wasn’t and I wanted to be. And I think that is why it hurt so much. He didn’t say much, didn’t argue with me either. Though he could clearly see that I was out of it. “Do you want to get out of here?” He asks and I nodded, even before he was done with the question. He got up and took my hand then dragged me back to his car. We didn’t say anything to each other then. But I couldn’t deny how much I was aware of my hand in his. I saw how he kept turning back to look at me. Like he had to be sure I was still there. The valet brought the car to the front and he opened the door for me. Instead of entering I turned and wrapped my arms around him, pulling him into a unexpected hug. He was take aback because it takes him a few seconds to relax and then hug me back. “Thank you.” I whispered against his chest. Something about his erratic heartbeat felt oddly calming. You would think he ran a marathon. It was r

JADE The doctor finished the routine tests as she had called it, to make sure I was fine. She mentioned sorting about a conduction which surprised me bemuse I know I didn’t fall and I didn’t hit my head either. But she was adamant and I easily gave in. “Your dad is here in the waiting room,” the nice doctor said, pointing over her shoulders at the door. I nodded. Even though I didn’t understand why this was such a big deal. What even is going on? She didn’t say anything that’ll give me a hint of that. And I wanted to ask, but for the life of me, I couldn’t tell what was stopping me. “We are still waiting for your test results, so we can’t administer anything to you right now.” She spoke while tapping on the keyboard in her hand. “But if you’re in any type of pain, notify the nurse immediately.” The tone of heroic made me feel a little cold. It sounded like something was wrong. Like whatever they think is wrong with me is bad. I nodded, trying to mask my worrisome thoughts with a f

JADE “WHAT?!” Antonio and I say at the same time. The doctor looks between us, clearly confused. “I—I’m sorry doctor, but there must have been some kind of mistake.” I stuttered through the words. I couldn’t believe this. No. No. No. It can’t be real. It just cannot be real. She looked down at the tablet, like she was reading through something, then she faced me and she nodded slowly. “There is no mistake ma’am. You are pregnant.” If it was possible for my heart to stop while I remained alive, then I would tell you my heart just stopped, for the second time, even. “We could do an ultrasound if it’ll make it easier for you to understand?” She sounded so unsure, I didn’t know who nodded between Antonio and I. I would go out on a limb here and say it was him, because I can’t even get my mind to think straight thoughts, talk less of a coherent understandable response. “Are you okay?” Antonio’s voice was soft, breaking though the still ringing I was hearing in my head. I looked du

JADEThe room was so quiet, you could hear if a pin dropped. We all had the same expressions. Or at least, I know had a horrified expression, dad looked deep in thought and Ray was confused, above all else. And Aidan, he looks like he is far away in thought and Antonio, I couldn’t even tell what he looked like, because I have been avoiding his gaze.“If the doctor clears you, we can go home.” Antonio read the silence.Instinctively, I looked up at him and saw how he was watching me. There wasn’t contempt or any of the tother emotions I thought he would have. He looked normal.“I don’t assume you would want to stay here much longer.” I nodded.He was right about that. I was tired of the entire hospital. The smell, the white walls. All of it was making me even more sick.“i’ll speak to the doctor. She can come and look after you at home.”“There would be no—““Let her come.” Dad interrupted me with a reassuring nod. “We’ll wait for you in the car.”Antonio nodded and walked out of the r

**ATLAS**“Don’t say anything.” I growled at Andrew who raised both his hands up in surrender. He looked like he had many things to ask but my warning made him think twice about it. Good for him. I wouldn’t feel anything like guilt if I bash his face in right now. In fact, I’m actually hoping to do that. “You don’t look very happy, is all.” He muttered and got up to walk out of the room. I thought of stopping him. But that would be the worst decision since I know that he would piss me off. I let him walk out while I went and stood by the window. Not feeling at all great about the great view the hotel offered. I remembered choosing this room with the thought of Jade liking her when I got her to come to back with her. I know it was a little hopeful. But that’s Jade. I’ve known her since we were teenagers. She isn’t that stubborn and she is forgiving. I at least expected her to give me a listening ear. It has been a day since she left me in the hallway of that restaurant while she

JADE “You’re still in bed?” Jay grumbled, walking further into my bedroom. “Turn the lights off.” I croaked, trying to pull the covers over my head. Apparently, I couldn’t even get a moment of peace ad stew in the dark because she would come and bother me. She didn’t look at all sorry either. “Jay, please.” I groaned, holding a hand up in a pleading way. Which she ignored of course. The heartless thing. “No, I am not going to lie you keep wallowing in self pity.” She places her hands on her waist, looking down at me like a disapproving mother. I need to ask if she has forgotten who is older because she likes to act like my boss. “I am not wallowing in self pity.” My argument was weak but I was’t wallowing. I’m just taking break from everything and everything until I figure out what I want to do. And so what if I decide to that in bed and in the dark, wearing two days old sweats? That is called, dealing. Not wallowing. “Sure, that makes sense.” The sarcasm couldn’t be missed.

JADE I don’t know why I thought things would be different. And that the way people treat me will change. Or maybe I’ll deal with whispers and side eyes and just many horrendous things. Before I came down, I hadn’t given it much thought. Since I kept telling myself I was staying to reel things. But it was just the fear of rejection. I didn’t know how the pack would act. Though form what I’m seeing, nothing has changed. The chef had smiled when she saw me, so did the housekeeper. None of them mentioned my two days hiatus. Only asked how I was, like they normally would. “I added a special secret for you, tell me how it tastes.” The chef handed e the plate of pancakes with syrup drizzled on top and fruits cut. It already looked perfect and I told him that. “Thank you.” He turned away to hide his blush. “Come on, take a bite.” Giving into his urge, I cut a small piece and took it to my mouth. The first burst of flavour on my tongue made my eyes widen in delight. He laughed seeing tha

JADE“i needed to come see him.”“Why?” He collected the baby from me “I told you that there's no need to. Why do you feel the need to come here even after I told you not to?!”“Because it's not just your victory! It's not just your life that he was after! It's mine too! And it's Ray's too! So yes, I needed to come down here to get closure.”He needed to understand that this meant something to me too, just as it did him.“Closure? Is that why you put the baby at risk? How much more closure do you need?”What on earth was he talking about?“Risk? Incase you didn't notice, I was there with him! I was at risk too! I needed him to look me in the eye and tell me why he did what he did to my family.”“Or maybe it's because you're too hung up on the past and you just can't let go. Incase you havent noticed, you're so stuck in the past and you are obsessing over it. Move on!”Well, I'm glad he finally got to say what he wanted to. Now I know how he feels about me trying to find answers. I w

JADEI didn't think it was worth it at first. Going to see the man that had made me grow up without parents and without the concept of what a true family felt like.But after much thought, he needed to know that all his plans failed and I was going to rub it in his face..I'd gotten all three pieces of the stone together and wore it around my locket.It would hurt him so bad to see that in the end, I won.Iniko decided that that was the right moment to start crying and everytime I dropped him back in his cot, he cried even louder.“Young man, what is it that you want? You've been fed and burped and I just changed your diaper so there's no way you could have soiled it again -”I stopped and remembered what happened yesterday so I took a peak for myself. There was nothing im his diaper.“So what exactly do you want?”I wish babies could talk.I guess I didn't have any other choice than to take him with me then. Atlas would blow a fuse if he found out that I took his son to see Ford.Whe

ATLAS“By wasting any more time, we are not doing ourselves any good! Sixth Circle pack is vacant. We have their leader in our custody and I've taken down every opposition in our way, do you think it would be long before we get more interests?”Sometimes, having a cabinet infuriates me so much. It was like I was speaking to brick walls. I didn't see any reason why they couldn't just agree to me taking over the Sixth Circle.It would even be better for us because it would improve our army base, it would make our pack bigger and in general, it would be a plus for us.But they weren't seeing it that way. All they were seeing was the fact that Ford had committed something against the pack and they weren't going to take it.I mean, what better way to teach him a lesson by taking over his pack?“Alpha, we're not disputing the fact that you've gone a long way-”“But you're diminishing my efforts. What's the whole point of defeating him and taking him into custody when I can't even go ahead a

JADERay and I weren't speaking for now.How could she hide something like that from me?“Where is she?”“I have no idea. All I know is that she ran away when we were little. She knew that he would come after her and she didn't want to put you in danger. So she ran away and left your nanny to take care of you. I don't know where she is.”How could she do this?“Before I lost my memory, did I know?”“No, you never knew.”I couldn't believe this. I lost my appetite for the rest of that day and I just stayed in Iniko's room because I couldn't even speak to anyone right now.I'd spent my life thinking my mother was dead only to hear that she was alive and she ran away because of that beast.“It’s not her fault, you know. Your mother ran away to protect you and Ray didn't tell you because she wanted to keep you safe. You have to forgive her.”I didn't blame her. It wasn't her fault things turned out like this. I was just hurt that I didn't know.Later that day, I took Iniko on a walk so h

JADEI was just realizing that this baby has Atlas's eyes and hair and everything!“This baby is rigged.”He turned around in shock.“What are you talking about?”“You did something to make the baby look like you.”He laughed and shook his head.“No, I didn't. It's just a coincidence.”“Coincidence? Look at this baby and look at you. It seems like I didn't even have anything to do with his birth.”“Don’t worry, you can have the second baby.”I scoffed.“You think I'm going to let you have another chance to have photocopies? Big joke.”Iniko was so small and he seemed so fragile.Ray brought my food and she took him while I ate.“I wish my grandmother was here to see him.”She gave me a sad smile.“Me too. She would be so proud of you.I'm proud of you.”I'm so happy my sister was here with me. She was the one who had been by my side throughout and if the child had been a girl, I would have named her after Raya.“Thank you for everything you did. If not for you, I don't know how I would

JADE“I'm going to need your blood as well. Atlas, I promise it won't hurt her. Just a little nick.”He nodded and she dragged the knife across my finger.“Place your finger over the stone and let the blood cover it entirely. Do not take your hand away from the fire.”It was a simple instruction but it seemed so intense.It was almost over. My legs were beginning to feel well and it was getting harder to quiet my screams.“What do we have here?”That voice. He was here.“What are you doing here?”All I had to do was keep my hand over the fire until the stone bled.Ray helped me stand up straight while Atlas and Andrew faced my uncle.“So this was why I came here. How did you do that? How did you call the other stones?”I eventually removed my hand from the fire since we had found them.“I always knew it was with one of you. That stupid old hag told me she couldn't find the other piece but I guess she gave it to you. “Why were all the worst things happening tonight?I was in labor and

JADEAtlas returned later that evening.I was right with what I'd thought.“What have you been up to?”I knew he knew I'd been eating because of the smirk on his face.“You know you don't have to hide from me when you eat right?”Oh, I did.“If you see how much I eat and the way I eat, I don't think you'd want to be married to me anymore.”He burst out laughing.“What makes you think I care about the way you eat? As long as you're healthy and our baby is fine, I don't care.”“But then, what if I get fat? I'll be so big that I won't be able to eat. I don't know why I eat so much.”This was actually a worry of mine. Normally, I ate but my appetite was not this big.“Blame it on the baby. I figure when you give birth, the cravings will stop and even though you do get fat, you're still my wife. It doesn't change anything.”I was really married to the best man ever, wasn't I?“You’re the best.”“I know. Ray says that we have to get there before midnight so that she can prepare everything.

JADEAt this point, I was realizing that the earlier we did things, the better.“I’ll arrange for the sacrifice to happen tomorrow. We need to move as fast as we can before he gets Intel that were here.”I didn't want to have to run with this big belly of mine.“What are you going to need?”“Don’t worry, I'll take care of it. Just bring the stone.”We went to bed that night because we were all completely exhausted.“Hey, are you okay?” Atlas asked when we were in bed.“Yes, I am. Why do you ask?”“You didn't cry when you found out that he killed your father. You didn't cry when you found out that she was not your grandmother. I'm worried.”Now that I think about it, it's true. But it was because I didn't feel like crying.“I don't know. Maybe my body just hasn't proceses it yet. Maybe its because I hate him so I'm not bothered that he's not my father and I never really knew my father so i can't cry for him. I've already mourned for my grandmother.”I just didn't feel the need to cry b

JADE“Jade, step away from that.”I walked back towards them and stared at the pile.“What kind of animal would do this?”I had no idea but I think I was beginning to understand why she wanted us to find this place.This place held secrets.I went back to the wall to look at the drawings and try to understand them.I used my fingers to trace them again and this time around, I heard the voice clearer.“Look at the bigger picture.”I stepped away from the wall so I could see the entire thing. There were more drawings to the side and when I walked up, I noticed that there was a sign at the bottom of it.That sign…looked all too familiar but I couldn't just place my finger.“Ray, come see this. I've seen this before but I don't know where it's from.”She crouched beside me and stared at it for a moment.“I know it's familiar but I don't know where it's from, either.”Andrew and Atlas joined us and just within seconds, they knew.“We know.”They shared a look and it made me scared.“Jade,
