Chasing His Rejected Luna 22: Worst Side Of Me
ATLASI was gritting my teeth so hard. It was a surprise they didn’t break.Annie’s hand tightened around mine. Her red rimmed and tear filled eyes pleading with me to stay here with her.Her fear was so evident and the worry too.It made my chest tight. I couldn’t believe Jade actually tried to hurt her. I thought she was bigger than this.‘You can’t seriously believe Jade would try to hurt anyone. A pregnant woman, at that?’ I ignored Kian who scoffed in my head.I couldn’t trust his judgment when it came to Jade. He liked her as his mate so of course he would defend her, even if she was wrong.My mother’s chilling voice came from the door and I huffed out. I didn’t want her to come here until everything was already settled.She didn’t like Jade. And if there was a chance of me getting her back. She would ruin it simply by talking.I leaned down and pressed a kiss to Annie’s forehead, then I assured her I would be back just then. I headed toward my mother and Jade.The former was tr

JADE“I’ll drive you home,” Andrew spoke, not turning to face me and I nodded robotically.I reached down and quickly picked up the papers Atlas made me throw again. I didn’t know what to feel after everything that happened. So I just decided to shut off all emotions and thoughts in my head.Before we turned and left, I looked into the room and found Annie staring right back at me, with a slight curve of her lips. She was pleased. Her plan had worked.I shook my head and followed Andrew.The car was heavy with silence as he drove me back home. He didn’t say anything and I didn't have anything to fill the silence with. I thought of turning the radio on a few times but I never did and just settled for looking out the window. Watching as we passed by endless trees and a few cars on the highway.“Jade. Jade.” My eyes snapped open and I jerked, trying to pull away from something that was holding me down. “Careful, you still have your seatbelt on.”Seatbelt? What was I doing in the car? I h

JADE“Ohhh, cute neck piece.” Daiya winked at me, her fiery red curls bouncing as she walked out of the office with my file in hand.I didn’t even get to thank her for the compliment.She isn’t the first person to comment on it. Since I’d come to work, many people I ran into noticed it. I had thought of tucking it under my shirt because of the attention it was getting.I thought it was just an ancient looking thing that would remind me of my grandmother. The interest everyone was taking in it surprised me.It didn’t look particularly expensive. There was a stone in front of it but I doubted it was any special type. It definitely wasn't a diamo

JADEI was still watching Mr. Harrison in shock when Willow rushed into the room, like she knew what was happening.She ran up to me and tried to pull me off the floor. That managed to knock sense into me and I followed her, getting up as my senses came back to me.It wasn’t a wise decision to be close to someone when they are in a half shift stage. Nothing was familiar to them and they could harm anyone.“What’s that?” She asked I couldn’t tell if she was talking to me or not.I may have snapped out of my panicked state, but I’m still not fully in the right frame of mind to process things.Realizing that, she pulls out her phone from her pocket and dials for a bit before I hear her give one order.“Bring the tranquilizer.”She led me to my office, neither of us addressing the elephant in the room.Nothing had ever brought it up so I just assumed she was a human and she didn’t know about the whole werewolf thing. From the lack of shock in her eyes, I can tell she does. And she isn’t f

JADEI was still in shock of what Mr. Harrison said.The conversation with him has been running through my head for hours. I couldn’t sleep last night. I kept tossing and turning and staring at the locket I had held in my fat since he gave it back to me.He’d heaved a heavy sigh before he started speaking.‘The blood rhinestone was created to destroy alphas. Not all alphas, but certain alphas from different packs. And his pack had been one of them. Just as it was made to be their downfall, it was also their only saving grace.Unless you had one in your possession, you won’t be able to stop your pack being destroyed. And no matter your strength or the size of your army. A small pack could overthrow you because that is just the curse of the thing. Each pack was assigned one gem. And if you lose it. You lose your pack.’The one I had belonged to Mr. Harrison’s pack. His old pack, I guess. Seeing as it was with me. I would guess the pack was destroyed. He’d seemed bothered when we starte

JADEI called myself dumb in many different ways when I saw just how dark it had gotten when I left the park. And of all, I chose today to not come out with my phone.I don’t even know what I was thinking. Or rather, wasn’t thinking. But I couldn’t order an uber and there were no signs of cabs anywhere on the street. I knew about this so why did I let myself lose track of time? Stupid. Stupid. Stupid!!!To be fair, I had completely zoned out.I had no choice but to walk. It was even better than going to find a bus station because it was farther than where I was heading.My head was down and my steps were quick. I had one goal and that was getting home safely.“Ahhh,” I cursed when I felt a burn on my chest.It was sharp and extremely painful. I couldn’t keep going because of the pain so I leaned against one of the walls where I was walking. There wasn’t much light here and I wanted to keep walking forward. But my knees felt too weak and the pain was just getting worse.I unzipped my j

ATLASMy teeth clenched when the annoying alpha from Greendale pack smirked. His bright blue eyes always unsettled me. They almost looked transparent.Damien-demon Allister was my age and equally as ambitious as me. So naturally, I hated the guy.“How is your wife, alpha? I heard she is one of the best fighters you have.”I see his beta roll his eyes, also with a sickening smile on his lips.If they knew about Jade, then they knew damn well she wasn’t living here. Taking the whole ‘keep your friends close and enemies closer’ too seriously.“She is good.” I replied in a clipped tone. “And we’re not here to talk about her. What do you want?”When he called and requested a meeting with me. I couldn’t decline. Not because of anything, but I didn’t want him to think that even for one second he made me nervous. I hadn’t expected him to say it was tonight though. Still, I couldn't say no.I didn’t need any preparation whatsoever to meet with the little shit.I hate him more than anything and

JADE“Are you okay, miss?”That angelic voice called out again.I gave my head a little shake, trying to get to my feet. Seeing that, the man moved forward and took my hand, helping me up with a single pull.A zap of electricity shot through me when our hands touched. His eyes turned back to me and I saw confusion there. It was only present for a minute before it disappeared and he plastered a welcoming smile on his face.“Alpha,” another man came running to him, holding an iPad, I think, in his hands. “We need to get going. We’re already late.”His eyes trailed to me and they creased like he just noticed me.“And who is the pretty lady?” His voice changed, taking on a flirty tone as he eyed me up and down.I started thinking if my plain jeans and jacket looked good. I got rid of that thought with the speed of light. I had never cared what people thought of how I looked. Especially men. I wasn’t about to start now.“That’s what I’m trying to figure out too.”The man with the blue eyes

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,
