Chasing His Rejected Luna 142
ATLASThere was this energy buzzing underneath my skin. The flight back home was certainly better and more enjoyable than when we were going. There wasn’t that sense of uncertainty. I wasn’t rehearsing all I was going to tel Jade when I got to her.Though, she was still on my mind with a new feeling of loss. I couldn’t deny the satisfaction of winning something I’ve wanted all my life overshadowed that. And I was happy. Just happy.So was Andrew. He looked better, like the weight that had been putting him down was lifted. I appreciated all of that.Before we’d left for the airport, my phone had started ringing nonstop. Everyone was calling to either congratulate or ask if it really was true/. My mother was ecstatic. I was shocked when I saw her call. She nevercally me. What she usually chose to do was just show up where she knows I’ll be if she wanted to talk to me.We got into the car and talked about the changed that will happen while on the drive home. Andrew said he would have to

ATLAS“Hi,” she said, looking around the office hesitantly. Like she was’t sure she was welcome.I haven’t spoken to her and as much as just seeing her reminds me of her betrayal. I see her with Damien and it is the worst thing ever. Because everything aside, she was my friend even before we started dating. And she knew him when I was in training school and how much I disliked him.“Are you busy?” She asked, staring down at her feet.I huffed out a breath and nodded. We’ll have to talk ether way and now is as much a good time as any.“Come on,” I pointed to the chair and she slowly walked and lowered herself into the chair, looking very uncomfortable.I stared at her, noticing the dark bags under her eyes. Proof of lack of sleep. She didn’t have any makeup on, her usual red lipstick was out of sight. I couldn’t remember the last time I saw her this bare faced. I’d even almost forgotten the colour of her lips. Pale pink.She was really beautify. Even without the ten pounds of makeup sh

JADEI didn’t expect myself to et immersed in the book the way I did. I mean, I knew I would enjoy reading it because it felt like it was a way for me to get close to my mum and know her. Her family history. But the moment I started reading, I actually loved were it was hiding heading. The part I loved mist was the little drawings, which made it feel more like a fun book than on for history.I learned a few things about the wolf nomads and the original family, which according to Ray, my mum came from. Though I haven’t confirmed with dad yet. I’ll do that when I see him next.From what I learned, the nomads rarely stayed in one place, as the name implied. They never have a one true home. Always travelling from one place to another. They had three tribes and each one had a leader. They would sometimes meet on the road and cohabitate for a few days or even weeks, but then, they never feel comfortable settling so they move on eventually.I paid more attention to the families, wanting to fi

JADEDuring dinner, confirmed the whole Atlas thing and though I completely believed Aiden, it still felt like a slap to the face. The shock. The reality of it. Everything I guess. But like I said, I wasn’t going to let it bother me. And I kept a good face of that while we ate.After dinner, I was positively buzzing to go back to my apart and get started on unboxing and going through the things Ray bought. I wanted to compare them to what I have read so far. The excitement might have something to do with me trying desperately get my mind to think of something other than Atlas and the fact that I was having his child.Now that I have accepted that fact and I was a bit comfortable with it. It is starting to become a constant thought.We were done with dinner and I was listening to Aiden and Ray argue about something that has to do with school. The headman walked into the living room as she normally would when we were sitting, but this time, she only informed us that there was a visitor.

JADEI held my breath for a few minutes, wondering what was the worse that could happen that would bring Damien here.He seems like a man who never asks anyone for anything. So for him to leave his work and come all the way here. I shook my head, not wanting to think too much of it.I just hope it is something I’ll be able to help him with. After what Atlas did to his club, I felt like it was my responsibility to mend our relationship. Although he made it clear that there was no problem between us. Though, it didn’t alleviate the feeling of guilt that is eating me up on the inside.“You look worried.” Damien states, probably taking note of the long silence.“That obvious, huh?” I asked, holding back my nervous laughter by very little.“Kind of.” He cleared his throat. “Let me not keep you in suspense any longer.” He said, and his face looked soft. I don’t know how to explain it, but he seemed calmer or more understanding.It made me feel better too, instantly.“Jaiya sent me.” It felt

**JADE**Antonio was already there when I got out. He smiled when he saw me and walked up to me, giving me his hand which I accepted without hesitation. “Damien, this is Antonio.” I introduced them, not assuming they knew each other. “It is nice to meet you.” Antonio stretched out a hand, confirming to me that they were strangers. It wasn’t really surprising but I wouldn’t have been shocked too if I found out they did know each other. The months I’ve spent here has made me realize how small the world is. And many people knew each other. So having a large number of mutuals was a normal thing.Ray waved us goodbye, looking entirely too happy with herself. I couldn’t pinpoint what exactly she wants. Maybe it’s the whole me going out or maybe going out with Antonio part. I hadn’t told her I was inviting him. She was pleasantly surprised when she heard he was coming with.Antonio and Damien found something to talk about so the whole ride to where Jaiya was, they kept talking. I sometime

ATLASAndrew, Annie and I were in the drawing room downstairs, trying to decide who and who where will be in the guest list for the official party I had to throw as the leader of the council. It is supposed to be a formal black tie event and we had to get the big names.In the simple eye, it was supposed to be a way to pay homage to all the people there before you, to show that you respect them. But in reality, it was to show tour influence in the country. Just how many many powerful names can you get under the same roof. How many enemies could you make dine together, even if it ends in shit. The fact they knew the other was coming and they still showed up for you was what the world wanted to see. Even the people in attendance. So we had to be very careful with the guest list.Annie is a socialite. After she left the pack when I got married, she travelled the world and met with a lot other these people. She said to invite the wives. They’ll add it o their husband’s roaster and he’ll a

JADEEver since Jaiya moved here and we had that, should I call it date night? Well, night with her, Antonio and Damien, we have been hanging out every single day. I think we only get separated when we’re going to bed.I haven’t told her I’m pregnant yet. If you ask, I don’t even know what is holding me back. She will literally be the last person to judge. I’ve been thinking about it and so, I call her to see if she wanted to have lunch.She had an early meeting with some people, she sassed she’ll tell me more when we meet. And I thought it would be the perfect time to tell her about the baby. She is my best friend, if I had one.Thinking of best friends. It has been itching me to call Andrew and tell him about the baby. But I know he would tell Atlas and I haven’t reached a conclusion about that. I’m waiting for something to give me the push.Ray joked and asked if I was waiting for a sign from above. And although I looked at her like she had lost her mind. I was waiting for a sign.

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,
