Chasing His Rejected Luna 270
JADESpending time with Atlas, making plans about the baby and the pack, I wish it would never end, really. I understood what the good life was and why people never wanted it to end because I didn’t want this to end.Life has been steady since the whole thing with the council. Really, all we do is train, talk about the baby, talk about pack issues, spend some time with Ray and sometimes Andrew, or the both of them at the same time. Usually when we were going for our evening walks. Oh, how I loved those even walks. Though, to be completely honest, I loved it more ehe it was just Atlas and me.I was seeing an entirely different side of him now. He was more cautious, patient and very attentive to my needs. He sometimes even knew what I wanted before I could ask. And it has become, ‘if I want it, I get it’ kind of thing. Because he always makes sure I get whatever I want.Like last night, when we were about to sleep, I told him I was carving fruit juice. He said there should be some in th

JADEThe island Atlas chose for us to come to is on the outskirts off Hawaii. Pretty deserted which was just perfect. But being who he easily, although I understood that we had society threats now. Atlas booked the entire island so we could be alone.There was food and everything we might need for the next ten days. And yes, he decided ton ten days although nobody was surprised.“When you said you wanted alone time, you really meant it.” I said, looking around the beautiful resort we were staying in.“We have seen enough people to last us a lifetime. I think we deserve this.” Well, I couldn’t’t exactly argue with that logic. I felt him wrap his around me, and I place my hand over his, loving the feel if him all wrapped up around me.Atlas being Atlas didn’t let the moment last. He hoisted me up in move and carried me bridal style, ignoring all my moaning and groaning for him to let me down.“I’m sure you were there when doctor said I should be moving more and exercising.” I muttered.

JADEAtlas made a simple dinner before we went to bed, both tired and exhausted from the flight. Especially him because he has been working nonstop the few days before out trip. He positively posed out the moment his head hit the pillow while it was a bit harder for me to fall asleep. At first, I couldn’t find the perfect position. And after that, my mind was just too aware. And the thing is, I couldn’t tell you what I was thinning about. Just multiple hazy thoughts.I felt something touching me, and tried to slap it away. It felt cold and I really didn’t like that. My eyes fluttered but they didn’t fully open. I must have fallen asleep after staring at the wall for hours.Rolling on my other side, now snuggled up next to a warm body, I tried falling back asleep again, forgetting what had woken me up in the first place. I’d started drifting off, then I felt it again. Something cold, sliding up my arm.This time, I sat up with a start. I must have made some kind of noise because I felt

ATLASThe ten days getaway was exactly what Jade and I needed. Not even to give myself credit but she was glowing more by the second day we were in the island. I had considered food and cleaning up, because I didn’t want to compromise on us being alone. So, I planned for the workers to be coming around the time we wouldn’t be at the resort. That way, there was no way for us to meet with them.Andrew thought I was crazy for booking an entire island just to get alone time with Jade. I think he is underestimating the lengths I will go to for her. I hope his is a good lesson for him though, so, he’ll never doubt what I will do for her.And watching her, wearing that sexy two piece bikini. Her bump shining in the sun as she is laid back, sun bathing. It settled in my. Mind that I would really do anything for her. Kill anyone for her. Go to war with the world first she just gives me the okay to do that.These feelings, that overwhelming need to give her whatever she wants just because see h

JADE“You and this baby are my life. And I will lose mine before I let anything happen to the both of you.”I didn’t know what it is about Atlas wars that made me shiver in fear. And he felt that because he immediately asked what was wrong. And I want to tell him, I really do. But I don’t want to ruin the moment of peace we were having here. Leaving all our problems in the real world. Not to mention how I couldn’t even explain what was going on with me. All this dreams, they made nonsense. Or maybe I was scared they were making too much sense.I knew he wouldn’t call me crazy if I told him. He would try and understand then find a solution. The thing is, I’m the one thinking I’m crazy.“Something is on your mind.” He gently urged, not really pushing but not dropping it either. “If there is anything you don’t like, baby. Tell me and I’ll fix it. Is it the weather? I heard pregnant women feel so hot. I should have picked a cooler location, I’m sorry about that—““Atlas.” I covered his mo

ATLASJade has been acting really weird lately. And I’m trying to be understanding, to not push her into telling me what is on her mind, but is has bee really fucking hard, knowing something is disturbing her and not being able to help. I tried to coerce her into speaking. So, she wouldn’t have to deal with the burden alone. A problem shared is a problem half shared and all that shit.She has been impossibly tight lipped. I didn’t like that. This was supposed to be an ‘US’ time before the baby gets us. Our minds weren’t supposed to distract but it seemed hers chose this as the perfect tike to make a show.I couldn’t sleep tonight. I had laid down for a while and pretended to sleep. I find myself doing that a lot in the past two days. I always wait until she falls asleep before my body will also give up on me. We spend most of the day lazying around, exploring the beach, swimming and making sweet love. And at night, we cuddle and go to bed. But it hasn’t been that way for the past few

JADEAtlas was too perceptive and I knew he wouldn’t let it go, not when he knew something was wrong with me. I should have expected something like this sooner. Then again, he was very good at keeping his thoughts to himself. Even though he was more transparent with them now. I could feel what he was feeling through our bond. Too bad it didn’t allow you to read people’s minds. Them I would have known what he was planning.He usually feels asleep before emergencies. I was used to that. I hadn’t expected hi to stay awake. Like he knew I would wake up.What surprised me the most had to be the fact that he didn’t push for me to tell him everything. It was in alphas nature to be compelling and always want to have their way. And I know he is like that too. So, him not doing it was a big thing to me.He cuddled me, stroking my hair gently, our breathing in synch. I eve forgot about the nightmare. Tonight’s own had been particularly gruesome but I couldn’t remember the details of it. I just r

JADESomething bitter churned in my stomach, a lump lump formed in my throat but I remained casual.“It was’t hard to guess what had happened. I got dressed and left immediately.” He let out a shaky breath. “I’d made up my mind to never see her again, but then she showed up at work and she was crying about things, and I couldn’t turn her down. So I helped her get place to stay. She promised to pay back when things went back to normal. And then we found out she was pregnant, I couldn’t turn her away.”“Were there any others? Besides her?” I didn’t way to know. I shut my eyes. The slight relief I felt at knowing she wasn’t his mistress and that they weren’t having a relationship while we were married faded with that question.You would ask why I was doing that to myself but I wouldn’t have and answer to tell you.“No.” He answered honestly. “Not after I married you. I’ve never been with anyone besides her and that too was a mistake, Jade, I promise.”I believe him. Maybe I was naive and

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

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.

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

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

ATLASThe reality that the baby was coming made by kind go blank for more than five minutes. It probably wasn’t up to that but it felt like my world had stopped so everything seemed longer than it is in reality. I was excited. Deep down below the worry and fear and everything in between. I couldn’t wait to meet my son. The baby that was half of me and half of Jade. But I wasn’t happy too. Because she wasn’t in the right state of mind right now. And I don’t know how she’ll be when she wakes up. She would be ecstatic. I knew she wanted to experience every part of this. But I guess you plan and then life happens. “We’ll have to get her to the hospital soon. So she isn’t under for too long. It might be bad for the baby and her.” Feyre stood close to me as she explained. Her voice was soft and eyes filled with worry. She hasn’t known Jade for a long time but she as already really protective of her.“Okay.” I swallowed as I said the words. Then gave Jade’s hand a little squeeze. Before
