45: Lose My Mind
ATLAS
“You chased her out! What the fuck is wrong with you? What did you do to her?!”
Andrew looked like he wanted to punch a hole in my fucking face and the thing is, I would probably let him do it.
He was yelling in my face, paying no mind to the people moving about their day, shooting us weird looks as they passed by.
“Why do you have to be so fucking miserable and then you make everyone else around you feel that same way?” He yells exasperated. “No one is forcing you to be this asshole but why do you subject—“
“That’s enough now,” William appeared out of nowhere. Handing Andrew his suit jacket that he must have take

Chasing His Rejected Luna 46: Last Time
JADEJaiya pretty much forced me to spend the night at her place. Though to be honest, I was happy to stay there. Just seeing more of her space confirmed my initial judgment of it. It really is every girl’s dream home.Not only do you have your space to make into whatever you want. It was so big and so private. It felt like she was existing in her own little world. Big world.“How do you come into work everyday?” I asked late that night as we lounged on the couch and ate the popcorn she insisted on making.“What do you mean?” She swallowed before replying.“If I lived in an apartment like this. I don’t think I’ll be motivated to step outside ever again.”She chuckled, shaking her head. And I noticed her cheeks darkened a little bit at my comment. She really was modest.All that chaotic energy she had at work was at rest here. It wasn’t like she was a different person. Not at all. She is the same person that had walked into my office and pretty much adopted me as one of her friends. Th
Chasing His Rejected Luna 47: Office Guest
ATLASI camped outside Jade’s apartment last night. As much as I hated being anywhere that Brandon had anything to do with. I couldn’t sleep after all that happened and I thought she would be there.If you asked what I wanted to tell her. I wouldn’t know what to tell you. But it felt essential to my existence to see her and so I waited outside her apartment all night. Hoping she would show up.Like a creep, I peered inside hoping I would see her. Though to be honest, I knew she wasn’t there as soon as I arrived. There was no feel of her.She didn’t come back. I couldn’t help the multiple horrible thoughts I had. Thinking maybe something had happened to her. Or if she was off with that damned Harrison or that equally useless Damien.I’ll kill him if he lays even a finger on her.Just thinking about it right now is making me upset.Andrew was staring at me from across the table. His eyes were unreadable. But his annoyance was quite clear.After I waited all night for her, I found myself
Chasing His Rejected Luna 48: I Want You
JADEI thought I was ready to face him after the breakfast I had with Jaiya. The way she had been pushing me and cheering me on had me feeling like I could take on the world.But the sight of Atlas, even frozen as he was at the sight of me. It was enough to make my palms sweaty.God, why did the man need to have this much control over me?We stayed that way, staring at each other, in shock and trepidation, for what felt like hours. In reality, it was only a few minutes. Maybe three or even two. But a century was what it felt more like.We both snapped out of whatever trance held us that way and Atlas advanced into the office. He closed and locked the door first, then he pulled the blinds.My stomach knotted at the click telling me I was trapped in here with him.I wasn’t scared of what he would do to me. I’m more scared of how I was going to respond to him after everything. The sight of his lips was already making me think of how good they had felt against mine.The urge to bite mine
Chasing His Rejected Luna 49: Would You Have Realised?
JADE“No.” I whispered, shaking my head but then Atlas nodded. Acting like he didn't sound completely crazy right now.I really can’t deal with this if he is acting this way. I wanted to get up and leave. Refusing to succumb to the temptation that had led me to kiss him last night. I attempted to push him aside and leave the office. My mind was running as I recalled he locked the door. The fastest way would be the elevator since I didn’t have the key. I had to wait for it to get here too.Fuck. Why didn't I think to stop him when he closed the door at first.“Don’t go.” Atlas backed my path, gripping my biceps and staring into my eyes.Immediately, it felt like I was being put under a spell. I couldn’t do anything but stay there frozen, staring into his dark eyes.He breathed out a soft sigh when he saw I had stopped attempting to leave.Relief made his face relax and he nodded at me, his hands loosening its grip around me.“Thank you.” He breathed out.I didn’t know what to say. The
Chasing His Rejected Luna 50: How to Move On
JADE“You don’t have to look like you’ve seen a ghost.” He chuckled, being his usual self.Andrew was the calmest and nicest person I have ever met. Especially in the pack and not just because he was my friend.I have been a horrible friend to him for the past few days but he didn’t look offended. If anything, he looked worried about me.“Tell me now, how have you been?”The elevator doors opened and he moved for me to go in. He followed me and pressed the ground floor button. He turned to me, as though asking if that was okay and I nodded.“Andrew,” I sighed. “I’m so sorry. I’ve been a horrible friend and I—““Don’t apologize, yet.” He added with a small smirk. “I need to milk this out of you later. For now, just tell me. Are you okay, Jade?”He turned to me, fixing his unwavering gaze on me. I couldn’t even lie to him because he knows me so well. So I shook my head slowly.“Wanna talk about it?” I considered it for a bit.“What’s the time now?” I was already late for work but I had
Chasing His Rejected Luna 51: Her Sweet Innocence
ATLASI stayed in my office long after Jade left. I knew she had gone off with Andrew.She didn’t notice me following her out to the hallway. I had only gone back in when I saw him. And though I told myself I was fine. Something ugly reared itself in my head that made me want to smash his face against the wall.Jealousy? That didn’t feel right. I’m not jealous of anyone. I’ve never been jealous of anyone in my life. I’m not about to start now.My eyes trailed back to those offending papers.Where had Jade even gotten them from? I knew I left them at home in my bedroom. Since the day she left.I would always bring it out and stare at her signature at the bottom of the page. Then I would start to regret my decision of letting her leave in the first place.Why couldn’t I just let her go? It would be easier for the both of us.I thought it was just because of the pack. And it was scary to imagine that wasn’t the only reason I wanted her back. She could work for the luna. Though, that didn
Chasing His Rejected Luna 52: Family Ties
JADEThe conversation with Andrew shed light on one thing. There was no way to get rid of Atlas, unless he wanted to leave by himself.Why did he want to stay in a marriage he hated so much? Or is it because I want to leave now and he just couldn’t have that? Some narcissistic part of him couldn't handle that I was ready to move on.I told myself it was better if I kept thinking it was because of his selfish reasons. Rather than any delusional hope of him having feelings for me.Although when I asked Andrew, he said he didn’t know either.“He has been acting really weird of late. So, who knows.” He’d shrugged. Not looking entirely convinced.I wasn’t going to waste my time trying to figure out what Atlas was feeling. I had enough on my plate already. And really, I would much rather be spending time with my father instead.This is the third day after I went to Atlas’s office and came out more confused than ever. And still married to him. I was hanging out with dad as it is the weekend.
Chasing His Rejected Luna 53: Girl Dates And Dress Up
JADEJohn and dad dropped me off at Jaime’s place. I have gone back to my apartment. She texted me asking if I was free to hangout. And since my only plan was going to my apartment and staring at the wall, I told her I’ll come after.“You’re making friends in the company? Everyone is treating you alright?” Dad asked after we got in the car.I couldn’t help smiling as I told him all about the people I was talking to. If you asked me a few days ago if I thought I would have female friends. I would laugh and call you crazy.I thought I had an aversion to females. Or more, they had an aversion to me. Because most of the people that I met didn’t like me instantly. I used to think there was something wrong with me.There was nothing wrong with me. It was just them.Jaiya had already made snacks, ordered Chinese food from a place she told me I would love the day after I slept over. And she had three movies which she asked me to pick from.“I’ve never had a female friend like this.” I told he
