Chasing His Rejected Luna 189
JADEI freeze hearing that. Jaya doesn’t look any better with her widened eyes, almost filled with horror. I tried to come to terms with it. Remembering the weird energy I felt between them. But I said I was going to mind my business so I never brought it up. Now, I don’t know if I should have or not. Because she looks like she is about to have a metal breakdown.“Once?” The question slipped out. And I wanted to smack myself in the head because why does it matter if it was once? She seems haunted by it.I was ready to apologise for stepping over the line when I saw the slight shake of her head. It was very small, I would have missed it if I wasn’t studying her so well.“Twice?” Another subtle shake of her head. I reached for the bottle of water on the coffee table table and gulped down more than half of it in one go. My stomach rumbled, not agreeing with it because it was one things happening to my body to another. “How many times? Jesus.”The way I sounded must have been funny becaus

JADEI didn’t understand what Jaiya meant by that. Why did she have to reject Damien? They seem to like each other well enough, so what exactly is coming between them? It doesn’t make any sense to me. Though, she looks like she is not in the right frame of mind to answer that question right now. I didn’t push her either, I wrapped my arms around her and comforted her until she stopped crying.We were both quite for the longest time. The only sound that could be heard in the apartment was the honks of cars from outside. And even that was faint.The doorbell rang and I got up to answer it before she could make a move.When I opened the door, there was no one there. The anxiety started coming back at full force. I remained calm, as much as I could with shaking hands and peeked looked around. But there was nowhere toe even look, it was just a little foyer that leads to the elevator. I pressed the elevator button and it opened a short second later. Which meant, no one was using it. Who ran

ATLASJade hasn’t reached out or even looked for me. At the very least, send a message. I thought she would do at least one of that after the message I left her, but nothing. It was like I wasn’t even existing and that was the worst feeling ever. I hated every part of it.I would take her anger any day. Her yelling or telling me anything she wanted, over this simple game of ignoring me. It was making me go crazy.I find myself pacing my hotel room more times than not. Staring at the telephone in the room and waiting to be called from the reception because she is here asking for my room.Or just looking at my door, expecting her to knock and just walk in.I have thought up every possible scenario you can think of and none of that has happened yet. The only thing I am doing is wearing a hole in the carpet on the floor of the room. I couldn’t turn my phone off because I was hoping for a call or message form Jade. So, I muted Andrew instead. Because he was still texting me.I think he has

ATLASI don’t know why I thought Ford would seem different, now that I knew exactly who he was. Not just come very rich businessman. Though, as much as he was in my good books for taking Jade in and everything, I still have a little doubt about him, knowing he is friends with Brandon.That man may share the same blood and name with my father, but they couldn’t be further apart. Even a random stranger could have more similarities to my father than him. To know he is hid blood brother. It pisses me off for some reason.Ford leads me to his office, which was a subtle message that I didn’t miss. he was too professional to tell me to get out of his house. He would never say those exact words, but going out of his way to show me I’m not welcome, now, the political side of him will do that.Maybe I can see how they are friends with Brandon. They were all so manipulative, silent in how they controlled you because they’ll make you think you’re actually doing what you want.I remind myself to b

JADEAfter losing through the security footage and reaching the conclusion that it was tweaked, we decided to he’d back to the house because it didn’t feel safe anymore in the penthouse. Even with all the security, if someone could get in and out without being seen, then who knows what else they are capable of.While the car was rolling through the driveway, I noticed figure heading towards the gate.“Is that—“ Jaiya took the words right out of my mouth. Our attention was both on the man who was walking alone, looking like he couldn’t not anything going on around him.I sat back in my seat and released a breath.“What is he doing here?” Jaiya once again said the words I was thinking, only she sounded a lot more angry than confused.I was positively speechless. Atlas? Here? It looks like some sort of bad dream.“I guess we just solved the mystery of the invisible roses bringer and anonymous tipper.” I muttered under my breath, closing my eyes and forcing myself to not look at where he

JADEDad said he’ll give me time to think it over, which was shocking. I mean, I really couldn’t understand the man anymore. One time, he acts like he wants me to get rid of Atlas in the next second, and in the next minute, he is acting like someone trying to get us back together, I’m getting confused now.It has been a day since I came home and saw Atlas leaving, and now, I had to live with the reality that he was close. Jaiya said meeting him would be the best way to fire figure out what he was doing here. But I wouldn’t do that unless I had absolutely no other choice.Just the thought of it makes my belly churn with anxiety, and I am no doctor but I know that is not good for me or my baby. Speaking of which, I rechecked the time on the digital clock, estimating how many minutes until Antonio arrives.After the day long closed door meeting they had, he’d headed to his apartment and slept because he was really exhausted. Dad was the same too because I haven’t seen hi since our conver

JADEThe doctor, Nadeen, smiled, when she saw us. I have been seeing her specially since I found out I was pregnant and she has been a great help. Dad specifically chose her because she has been working in the family for years. She was even the one that delivered Ray and Aiden.Speaking of the twins. The news of dad and their mum’s divorce has been leaked to the press. Though from what he has said, she did it by herself to try and force his hands or just make a mess. He don’t know which she wanted but apparently. She likes attention, and she know she hates the public knowing about his business.So, the next few days are going to be a little hard on Ray, especially. I make a mental note to plan things for us to do so she’ll be busy and distracted.The doctor returned with a nurse, the same one we see every time we come. Anti is by my side through it all. His hands in mine, intertwining our fingers. His hold tightens when I give a little flinch. No matter how many times I do this, the f

ATLASTurning into a stalker is the new low that I have hit. And I know I should have taken Ford’s advice, or his plea for me to leave his daughter alone. I tried though, I really did. But I only lasted a few hour before eight gouda myself searching through dozens of clips to try and understand Jade’s schedule. If she even had one that was public.It worked well enough that I knew what time she usually left her house. The thought of how I easily got that annoyed the hell out of me. Because it wasn’t safe. If I could get that in just a few short hours, then someone else planning to hurt her will probably do it in less time.She has security, I know. But I have always believed it is better to prevent rather than cure.So, under the guise of keeping her safe because her father’s idea of tat was definitely flawed, I followed her around. And I was then aback when that little pretty faced prick arrives and he didn’t leave for the longest time. In fact, the next time he came out, they were t

ATLASIt was us two against five men. As if weighing out our options, Damien touched my side and handed me a better knife. He lunged forward, making the offensive move. I waited till the men came to me which was something that always gave me time to map out their techniques. Within four minutes, all give men were lying all the floor. Well, four because Damien was having a good time killing one of them slowly. “Let the poor guy out of his misery. “He laughed like a deranged psycho. “He was sent to kill you and you’re begging for his mercy? Still so stupid.”I let that slide and walked away from them, going back to the car to check on Feyre. It wasn’t easy getting her to stay in the car. She rolled the window down, poking her head out.“Hey, what the hell was that? Who were those people?”I didn't have an idea either and I don't know who sent them or if they were even sent. “I don't know but it doesn't matter now. Are you okay?” She nodded. “Yeah, who's that guy? Is he a frien

ATLAS“Atlas, lets go.” Feyre touched my arm lightly. I collected the bag from her. “Thank you. For your help. I'll never forget it.”I grabbed Feyre's hand and walked out of the room. Thankfully, there was no one outside and we tried not to make it look obvious that we were running away. “Keep your head down and just walk fast.”The car wasn't a far distance from the house. “What do you think is going on?” If I said I had any idea, it would be a lie. “I don't know.” I turned the engine. “But first we need to get out of here.” As soon as we're gone, then we can think of what the girl said. “Who’s Anika?” I asked Feyre. I thought she didn't hear me so I didn't repeat myself. When she blinked, I was very sure that she had heard me but refused to answer. So I let it go. Hopefully, by the time we get home, Jade will be awake and I'd be able to ask her what the hell is going on because I didn't understand why the young girl would be telling me that her mother was alive when all
Chasing His Rejected Luna 302
ATLASThe girl looked at me like she didn't just scare the life out of me. I put the knife back in its sheath and looked around to make sure that no one was behind her and using her as bait. I heard Feyre's voice behind me. “Who is it?”I raised a hand to silence her, not talking my eyes off the girl. “Who are you and what do you want?” She didn't say anything and stared at me with a blank face. Letting my guard down, I opened the door a little more to let Feyre see who it was. She looked into the room and made contact with Feyre. Without answering me, she pushed into the room and I just watched her and then closed the door behind me. “What do you want?” I repeated. “You need to get out of here.” Her voice was quiet but we heard her. Feyre and I made eye contact, both sharing confusing looks. “What are you talking about? And who are you? You haven't answered my question.”My eyes swiftly moved to the door to see if I should be expecting any more surprises but it was clear.
Chasing His Rejected Luna 301
JADEI wàs hungry but then again, I couldn't exactly be bothered to eat anything. I was in pain, excruciating pain that I couldn't even get any sleep last night. The nurse had come in to give me something for the pain but it was like this baby wanted me to be in pain. Eventually, the pain went away and I just sat up on the bed, thinking about what the hell was going on. It felt like I passed out and all of a sudden, Atlas was in love with me, I couldn't find Annie hanging around him like a monkey from a banana tree and I was pregnant. Heavily pregnant and in pain. I needed answers and I needed them fast. I'd been asking for Andrew all day but I couldn't find him anywhere and then speaking of Atlas who could tell me where he was, I also couldn't find him. What was I expecting? That man that hated me with passion, how would he come in to check on me? I'm sure that he wouldn't care if I died. I was alone in this hospital room, with no clue what was going on. The door to my room
Chasing His Rejected Luna 300
ATLASI was staring out of the window with an unclear mind and a raging headache. I'd thought about so much that I was tired of even thinking. This whole situation was getting to me and the fact Jade didn't even remember what happened in the last few months was killing me. What the hell happened?I felt a hand on my shoulder and I turned to see Zade behind me. “You look like you're a thousand miles away.” He brought me a glass of something and as I lifted it to my lips, I scrunched up my nose and pulled the glass away from me. “What the hell is that?”He had a smirk on his face.“Something that will wake you up and calm you down. You look like you haven't gotten any sleep in a while. You need to take it easy.”That was easy for him to say. It wasn't his wife and child who were at risk here. I felt like if I took a break, then it meant that I wasn't serious. Looking at the glass one more time and deciding that I could kill Zade if anything happened to me, I threw my head back and

JADEI knew I wasn’t alone in the room even before I fully woke up. So, when I open day eyes, I wasn’t surprised to find Atlas sitting on a chair beside the bed. My mood immediately plummeted.I really didn’t need him and his fairness right now. We both know he would much rather be with Annie than here. Why was he even here and how long has he been waiting? I’m sure he has work to do and watching me sleeps’t one of then.No, Jade. He is not your business anymore. He is having a child with the woman he loves and cheated on you with. This is the last time you’ll worry yourself with his affairs.I nodded to myself, agreeing with the voice in my head.“Jade.” He breathed my name out. He has never spoken to me like that, I couldn’t deny the butterflies that swarmed my stomach at hearing that. But I could pretend him speaking didn’t have any effect on me which is what I did.“Can you please leave?” I said, making sure my voice came out cold.I tried to sit up and a stiffness in my back remi

ATLASThis couldn’t be real. It couldn’t fucking be happening.I could feel my blood roaring in my ears, my body was shaking but then it all felt like it wasn’t even real. Like I was just imagining this and I really hoped this was a fucking nightmare.“Alpha,” I heard a hesitant voice. It pulled me from my train of thoughts and everything started becoming more real now.I didn’t know my mind had blanked out until she spoke and I was pulled out of my trace. I could hear the voices and all the commotions going on around me.The doctor was still standing above Jade. I didn’t know when my body had moved earlier when she was falling. But my body moved before my mind could register all that was happening.“Do you mind stepping out please, alpha?” The doctor spoke. When I gave her a look, she stepped back and cleared her throat. “You can stay if you want too.”She stepped back and then they started doing more tests.“You still can’t do the surgery now.” The healer spoke, looking to me to sup

JADEMy head was heavy when I first woke up. I looked around the place confused, wondering how I ended up here. The last thing I remembered was going to my grandma’s room and checking on her. Then…Oh no.The conversation played out in my head again.Atlas’s cool voice and Annie’s ecstatic own.“Look at that. Our baby.” She had said, her voice choking with tears. “He’ll be the most handsome baby with his father’s eyes.”“Well, we can’t tell the gender this early.” Another voice had said, it was a female, she sounded kind of familiar.One of the actors. I told myself. I couldn’t bring myself to move because the entire thing felt like a fever dream and I didn’t want to believe that it was really real. But it was.“Is she okay?” Atlas sounded worried. Concerned.I could see him looking at Annie with so much care. When he only looks at me with disdain.I couldn’t hear more, I ran in the opposite direction and neared the first door I saw. I ended up in the supply closet but I could barely

ATLASAs much as I wanted to rush through the process of dressing just so I could go back to where Jade was, I forced myself to do everything right. For her sake. I would not want my lack of prepping well because I couldn’t be patient cause harm to her or the baby.A nurse was waiting for me outside after I finished and she took me to the OR where I had to wash my hands again and then wear the full coverings.There were speaking in medical terms I didn’t understand. I just stood back with my hands in Jade’s own, never leaving her side just as I had promised. The doctor was kind enough to explain what they were going to do.“It is a simple procedure, alpha. Your wife and baby will be up and going in no time.” She said with a kind smile, the sides of her eyes crinkling.I nodded, exhaling a breath through my mouth.“Ten blade.” She had moved to Jade’s abdomen and I could feel my wolf moving in my head when I saw the blade she was talking about. His mind didn’t register that this was a p
