Chasing His Rejected Luna 212
ATLASWe were on our back to the hotel when I saw Jade’s drugs. And thinking she would need it, I told the river to turn around and head back so I could give it to her. I was only too happy to see her again before it was time for us to leave.Her younger sister was who I met with when I got there. She gave me a dirty glare before walking off and leaving me there. A maid appeared thankfully and she directed me on where Jade’s room was. When I got there, I was surprised when I heard yelling. I identified the voice immediately and all I could see was red.Not was only is he here, which I didn’t like even a bit, but he was yelling at Jade. The woman carrying my child. That black eye he said I gave him, I’ll give him a fucking real on now.I squeezed through the elevator even before it fully opened. The more ti saw him, bloodlust filled me as I pushed him away from her.“Why the fuck are you yelling at her?!” I screamed in his face. It was taking everything in me not to be beat him to a pu

JADEI tried sleeping after Atlas left, I did tell him I was going to sleep. But that was just an excuse to get him to go. So, why did my heart feel heavy when he actually left? Did I expect him to stay? No. I would have been upset if he’d stayed but then I wasn’t exactly happy that he left either.Maybe I’m just crazy. Most be the pregnancy hormones.Those were the thoughts keeping me up. This exact questions and others similar to it. Once in a while, Antonio would slip into the thoughts but I’ll get rid of them immediately.I tossed and turned, not finding the bed comfortable at all.How is it that I slept better in the hospital bed that was much smaller and not at all soft but now, in my comfortable bed, I couldn’t get even a minute of shut eye. This is horrible.Much later in the evening, I still haven’t gotten a moment of respite from all the thoughts, Ray came into the room. She myst have thought I was sleeping, with all the blinds down and lights off, so she slipped into the be

JADEI’ve been staring at the papers dad handed me for over an hour. I was seated on the couch because Ray is in my room and I didn’t want to wake her up.It seems like the answer to all my problems. Sign it and get rid of the marriage. It is what I wanted. It should be what I want. But it does’t feel right. And I may tell myself I’m hesitating because Atlas might use that as a way to get full custody but I know it is a lie. Deep down, I‘m not so sure I want this.Then again, this marriage, or excuse of one, that it is, has been like a noose around my throat. Suffocating me. Stopping me from breathing and fully moving on. And now, I have a chance to take it off and get rid of it. I’ll never be able to get rid of him. Not when his child, our child, is growing inside of me.Almost instinctively, my hands goes to my numb and I caress it. I’m not in the right frame of mind to think logically. I said as I stood up, locking the papers in the roosted where I kept my mum’s necklace.I’ll slee

ATLASMy phone vibrated with the notification of another call coming in. I didn’t want to pick, knowing what Andrew was going to say was important, then I saw it was Jade’s father.“Hey, let me call you back. Jade’s father is calling.” I tried to keep my voice calm so he wouldn’t worry but I was freaking out inside.Ford wouldn’t be calling me unless it was important. I answered the call and put it back to my ear.“Jade has been rushed to the hospital. She passed out and hit her head—“ I didn’t wait to listen to the rest of the things he said, I just got up and rushed out.Donald was standing outside, liking like he was about to come and get me. I saw the shocked look when he noticed how disheveled I looked.“Is everything okay alpha?”“We’re heading back to the hospital.” He nodded and got in step beside me. I felt the elevator would be too slow so I heard towards the stars and pretty much flew through all of it. The car was already waiting upfront when we got there and Donald took t

ATLASI sat on the only chair in the room, watching Jade as she slept, my heart heavy in my chest. She looked so fragile and weak, and her supple skin is pale now. There was no word to describe how she looked beside sick. That was just it.Was it really worth losing her life to have this child?I wanted her to be fine. I’ll always pick her first but I know she’ll never agree to remove the baby now. She would rather lose her life because she is selfless like that. So, I told the doctor not to infirm her about this. At least not yet. It would just add to her stress levels which I’m sure is not s good thing.I must have fallen asleep because the next time I focus on the bed, she is wide awake and watching me. I stretched and looked out the window, seeing how the sky was starting to get bright. It should still be early morning so I might have sept for an hour or two at most.Jade had a look in her eyes that I couldn’t place. But I didn’t let it deter me. I got up and walked to her side. S

JADEI kept thinking what atlas said, long after he left. My mind was still on it. He didn’t say where he was going but he kept getting calls and he assured me he would be back. I don’t know why I nodded and smiled. Totally forgetting I was supposed to be angry at him for everything. The butterflies on my stomach made me forget anything like that.Ray has been with me and she’s trying her hardest to distract me from everything. She thinks I’m distraught. And I don’t know how to hell her I can’t even tell what I’m feeling. But sad and confused definitely isn’t one of them. Maybe I needed to be beat housings something is clearly wrong with me mentally.“You’re sure you’re not feeling type of pain?” The doctor asked, a kind smile gracing her lips.“Yes, I’m good.” I repliedI was a bit lost seeing how the pain completely disappeared. If I didn’t know better, I would say my body liked being in the hospital. But overall, I thought the whole thing was weird. She didn’t prescribe any pill

ATLASJade didn’t look too happy about that. Not to mention her younger sister who was shooting daggers my way. Yes, their father didn’t know we were heading here and I would rather it remains that way for a while.“Atlas, you can’t just decide to ship me off to a different place without notifying me beforehand.” She had a frown on her face and though it gutted me, I knew why I was doing this.I would much rather she has that smile I kept seeing all through this morning. I know as soon as he knows what is actually going on, she wouldn’t mind.“I’m sorry about that.” I said earnestly, walking up to her and taking her hand. I make sure she is looking at me before I speak. “There was no time to tell you and…” I paused, letting a small knowing smile lift one side of my lips in a half smile. “i knew you would argue.”“So you intentionally didn’t tell me?” She deadpanned.“Better to ask for forgiveness than permission.” I replied and she sighed, looking like she was tired of my antics but a

JADERay fell asleep an hour into the flight. I think she has been in the hospital for a while, since I was sleeping because I didn’t see her until dad left.Donald picked her up and took her to the bedroom on the plane. When he came back, he went to the farther part of the jet, his attention solely on his iPad. He had a serious expression on his face all through.Atlas came to sit next to me after that. He didn’t say anything, didn’t even try to have a conversation. Just like he was completely satisfied with just sitting beside me. Me on the other hand, I couldn’t get my heart to calm down.I was so sure he could hear the erratic loud beating. Must be why he reached for my hand and have it a squeeze. As if telling me I wold be fine. Not knowing he is the reason I‘m so nervous.Somehow, I rested my head on his shoulder and we sat that way for the rest of the flight. Ray woke up when we were about to land. She’d glared at Atlas when she saw him sitting beside me. Before she dejectedly
