Chasing His Rejected Luna 32: Surprise
JADEDamien, the man with the gorgeous eyes, proved he was a great company last night.Though it felt a bit weird when he was flirting with me. Overall, I had a great time and by the time we decided to call it a night, it was almost two in the morning. He did take me home. After much argument.I learnt that he wasn’t easily dissuaded, especially when he put his mind to something.For some reason, I was more interested in dressing up. So I picked up my best blouse and the new pants I had got for work. I spent more time on my hair than I usually did. I tried curling it, which was a failure, so I just straightened it and went on my way.I got into work quite early, most of the floors were empty when I got there. I head straight to my office and decide to catch up on work that I might’ve missed from yesterday. There wasn’t much to do. And I knew it would take an hour or two at most.I was going through some of the notes Willow must have left when I heard a knock on the door and said perso
Chasing His Rejected Luna 33: Locket Secrets
JADE“W-what?” I stuttered when I was finally able to move my mouth.The tears trailed down Mr. Harrison’s face and he nodded slowly. He pulled out the handkerchief tucked into his suit coat and wiped his face with it. He paused until he got his bearing right before attempting to speak again.“I went to Atlas’s office this morning to confirm some things about you.”He explained how he had suspected it since he saw the locket. But his wolf had taken over before we could talk and after that. He didn’t feel it was the right time to bring that up. Also, he was scared to let himself hope for that.He had been looking for more than twenty years but came up empty. It had felt too good to be true when he saw me.“Though he wasn't much help, as you can see. He doesn’t like me.” He let out a mirthless chuckle. “But once I told him why I was asking. He was more keen on talking to me.”Mr. Harrison’s red rimmed eyes stared into mine and my heart tugged. Wanting to take away that pain I was seeing
Chasing His Rejected Luna 34: Tantrums
ATLASThe sound of glass breaking makes me sit up sharply. I blinked and looked around the room before my memories slowly came back. I was in the office.I’ve been stuck in one place since Harrison left. I couldn’t tell if it was from the shock of what he had said or the reality of what will soon happen.“Earth to Atlas.” Andrew picked pieces of the tumbler that must have fallen. “Where are you disappearing off to?” He questioned, standing over me and watching me with obvious confusion.“What do you want?” I asked, clearing my throat and sitting up straight.I brush my hair back and shake my head. None of it clears my thoughts though.“You forgot we had a meeting with the alpha of SideCrest pack?”“Shit.” I cursed and got to my feet. Wearing my suit jacket and nodding toward the door.I turned to find Andrew holding a hand up for me to stop.“Didn’t you say we were running late? Let’s go!”“I already called and told him to reschedule.” I glared at him.“And why would you do that? I di
Chasing His Rejected Luna 35: No Longer Alone
JADEI don’t think I’ll ever get used to this and we haven’t even spoken about it at length.Ford, or rather, dad, now, said he’s giving me the space I think about this deeply.He explained how he and my mum got separated and how she ended up with the blood rhinestone.Just to confirm that he really was my father. We took a DNA test which came almost identical. Though to be honest, I didn’t have any more doubts after seeing the picture inside the locket. The fact that he had the key, when I didn’t even know what it looked like said enough.My grandmother had also said it would help me find the truth out. Part of that truth was finding my father.How ironic I literally came to his company.Should I mention this wouldn’t have happened if I didn't make the choice to put myself first and divorce Atlas. Speaking of which. I haven’t seen him since the incident at the house with Annie. Not physically at least.Last night, I’d decided to watch the local news channel. They were showing an eve
Chasing His Rejected Luna 36: Lost Hope
ATLAS“How do I look?” Annie’s voice pulls me from my distracted thoughts. She was looking at me expectantly as she re-applied her lipstick.A bold red color that almost made her look like she was doing too much. It was a total contrast to the soft pink lip gloss Jade always wore. The former seemed to be begging for attention. While the latter acted like she was doing her best to remain hidden.I couldn’t tell her all that of course, I was already late for the meeting and she would want to go and change. So I smiled and told her what I know will hurry her along.“You look perfect.”She grinned, her perfect teeth shining.She leaned into me from her chair and placed a hand on my chest. Her eyes softened when she spoke.“I want to give the right impression as your partner,” she inhaled slowly. “I know people think I can’t be half of the luna Jade was, but I want to try.”Something heavy settled in my heart at the mention of Jade. I told myself it was because of what she said and how she
Chasing His Rejected Luna 37: Crazy Thoughts
JADEI was still in shock and disbelief when we left the restaurant. I couldn't believe Atlas acted that way.The man barely looked at me twice in the four years we were married. And now he was going crazy thinking I was with someone? What exactly did he want? What did it all mean?“Don’t worry yourself with thoughts about Atlas. He’ll stop once he realises it is for nothing.” Dad said, placing his hand in mine and giving it a comforting squeeze.I rolled my tongue over my bottom teeth. Thinking of the right thing to say. Was there even a right thing to say in this situation?What even is the situation?Ex husband realises his wife that he has ignored for four years is actually useful after trying it out with his not too bright mistress and seeing life isn’t really all that good?Not only was it a mouthful. It didn't make much sense.Atlas wasn’t regretting treating me the way he had all these years. I can just tell he is pissed that it seems like I’m moving on.He didn’t want me. But
Chasing His Rejected Luna 38: Her True Value
ATLAS“Why are you here?” I ask my beta, rounding the car to get into the passenger side.He opens the door on the side and gets into the back beside me. Not the front like he did the other day when he was feeling petty. I wanted to call him out on it just so I wouldn’t be the only one in a shitty mood. But he already had the upper hand over me.“We always go to work together.” He replies with a nonchalant shrug that made me want to dislocate his shoulder.“We don’t.” I left no room for argument.“Well, since you became a bachelor like me and stopped riding with a wife. I thought it would be good to keep you company so you don’t, you know….” He slid his finger over his neck, in the universal slaughter sign and I rolled my eyes.He is really stupid.“Do yourself a favor and stop visiting me.” He chuckles.“No can do, brother. I’m your suicide prevention hotline.”“If you’re not careful. You’ll be calling the cops next and reporting me for murder hotline.”“How would I do that if I am d
Chasing His Rejected Luna 39: Starting Over
JADEWhen I woke up, I told myself I was going to start afresh. With no thoughts of Atlas, or Annie, or anything and anyone related to my old pack.They may have been the only family I had apart from my grandmother, but if they didn’t want me. Then I’ll give them what they want and remove myself from anywhere they’ll probably be.It may be a little hard, seeing as Brandon is Atlas’s uncle. But oh well. I rarely saw him when I was in the pack. And Atlas sure as hell has never visited him.After my shower, I stood in front of the mirror. I couldn’t help but feel slightly different. I couldn’t pinpoint my finger on what exactly was different about me.Did my eyes seem lighter? Was my skin glowing?I almost laughed at the incredulous question. I’ve lost my mind.My eyes really were glowing though. It is weird that I was noticing something like that about myself. Probably because I rarely looked in the mirror on a normal day.Or maybe, it is the sign of a new start. You could pretend you w

JADEI'd slept rather late last night, doing absolutely nothing. That's probably why I woke up late today.My head was banging on one side and as I sat up, I felt my stomach quease. I'd rejected food last night because of how irritated I felt and it was like this baby wanted to come out right this moment but then the nurse said I wasn't due yet.Why were they so uncomfortable then?I didn't know what I was having yet but I had a strong feeling it would be a girl. I could just feel it.Now, I was very hungry and tired and there blinding sun was pouring into my bed room like a river. I'm never going to do that again.It was another day of being in this bed and I was sick and tired of it. I hadn't been able to move unless I wanted to go to the toilet.Well, that was due to my swollen legs but I still wanted to move regardless. I needed to get some fresh air and take a walk.The door opened and Ray entered.I gave her a little smile as she approached me with a tray in her hand. It was lik

Chasing His Rejected Luna 304
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
Chasing His Rejected Luna 303
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
Chasing His Rejected Luna 298
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
