DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 18 - THE MOLE
-NIA’S“Um,” I cleared my throat and uttered the ridiculous entry code. “Rim-bim-bim-bim.”The slot in the door slammed shut. A series of locks clanked and clicked before the door squeaked open on rusty hinges. I swallowed thickly and stepped inside. The tubular wind chimes above my head sang as they brushed my high ponytail. Being heedful, my eyes scanned the habitat, checking for others.The cramped living room had a dim bulb in the ceiling, reeking of a rich dark dank smell with strong motor oil overtones and tobacco. Shelves covered the walls with car oils, spark plugs, and filters. Used car parts leaned against the wall in one corner. I felt dirty from just being in here.“You are an interesting one.” The gruff voice came from a gray-haired, sallow man from behind the kitchen peninsula.My stomach clenched as I swiveled around. I trod apprehensively towards him, crossing my arms on the laminated countertop. “I’m here about Gossart from the Trenchlands. How do I find him?” I went
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 19 - AUCTIONED
-NIA'S POV-“As usual, we have the finest specimens for your harem.” Madam Cumberbatch announced, beckoning to the spikey brown-haired dude to send out the first three. “Billy Bob.”Following the woman’s orders, he retorted, “Get on up there!”The men roughly grabbed a fist full of our hair. My heart twisted in my chest. We wrestled against them as they dragged us into the spotlight despite our muffled screams and their cursing.Apparently, Madam Cumberbatch was in the business of sex trafficking hybrids to high-ranking gang members of the slums. Due to their dual species, they were declared to have more abilities than those with ordinary genes.It was my leaf-shaped ears that caused this big calamity. I wasn’t a hybrid but they believed otherwise. It was one huge misunderstanding.“Start the fucking auction!” An impatient man yelled and the rest of the room erupted in murmurs and complaints.Something wrenched inside of me and I drew in a rattling breath. I kept my head bowed slightl
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 20 - DEMOLITION TEAM
-LYKOAN’S POV-“You can’t―you can’t die.” Tear-stricken, Nia grabbed my face, staring into my eyes, unblinking as though I would disappear if she did.My face contorted in agony as the piercing bullets stung. I grunted and slumped down on one knee to the floor.Sniffling, Nia braced my body up with her palms on my pectorals. Then her fingers patted my body in search of the wounds. They came to the neck of my shirt, ripping it completely open.To be honest, parts of me got excited as I watched her fuss over me. Each time she touched a spot, her leaking eyes locked on my face like I was supposed to say something.Grimacing at her crinkling gaze, I muttered, “Ow?”It made her sob louder. “This is wrong. This can’t be happening.”Her fingers fiddled with the black bulletproof vest. She was freaking out and finding it hard to remove. My men and I knew it was wise to wear them into battle to avoid being wounded easily. The overlords like to use the .5 BMG silver bullets against us.Already m
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 21 - HARD REALITY
-NIA’S POV-Run.Get away from him.Diving through the already pried-open window, I landed on my stomach on the high grass outside and rolled a bit. I got up with a jolt. Without hitching, I galloped into the wide cornfield. Blades of the young corn leaves scraped my legs as I stormed through the maize, crushing a few stalks.The night smelled fresh, divine. The moon poured a silvery glow over the land with graceful ease, lightening the upcoming path. To my left were the speckling lights of a distant town.Lykoan’s wolf growled behind me. It cut across the sky and stabbed the moon. It was the scariest thing that I ever heard. I knew he was shifting. He was howling for his mate and his desire tore at my heart. It caused my wolf to use her strength against me.“Go back! Go Back to Sultan!” Starr snapped in my head. I realized that it was the name of his wolf. Cute.Looking behind always made the movie characters trip and fall. It was a common mistake I refused to make in this reality. S
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 22 - POSSESSIVE GRIP
-NIA’S POV-Lykoan pushed his groin so that it was flushed against my ass. He was playing a dangerous game. A plethora of whimpers left me as my body shuddered. I wanted to cum and I wanted to run. Lust battled rationality inside my head.It was the worst kind of war with sexual tension. I chanted a silent prayer for some kind of interference. Something that would distract him from sinking his fangs any further. Like a shooting star or even a comet.Moon goddess, if you exist, give me a hiatus from him, right now. I possessed the will to fight him, but his strength superseded mine. If he pressed his hulky body into me any further, the ground beneath me would sink, and I would be eating dirt and grass like a damn cow."Goddess. Damn!" He growled.Suddenly, his body shook like he was having some sort of seizure. My frantic heart was pounding at the same cadence that my pussy was throbbing.What’s next?To my surprise, he retracted his fangs, licking the blood from the small punctures he
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 23- OH WHY OH-WHY OH WHY?
-NIA’S POV-“You’re awake! Thank you, goddess!” The strange woman exclaimed, her voice filled with relief. Her hazy form hovered over me, head tilting from left to right, assessing me. “Are you alright? Please talk to me.”Who was this woman?Hafts of sunlight crept in from the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, extending across the bed and warming me up after a cold night's sleep.The white sheets swaddled me, warmly and tender like my mother's arms. The faint smell of snapdragon and lemon lingered on my skin.I groggily forced my eyes to stay open and glanced around. At first, a feeling of panic arose inside of me as I took in my new surroundings, but then, the previous night's events caught up to me, and humiliation and dread flooded my chest.I inhaled sharply when I remembered how he screwed my mouth into a mind-blowing kiss. My nipples pricked at the memory of his hot tongue working it. My body lit on fire. I shook the next images away, triple-locked it, and threw the keys to the de
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 24 - SUCK IT UP!
DALTON'S POV-“Son, this is enough!” Harrison growled, slamming the CEO’s office door with a loud bang.Jolting up in my executive chair with fright, I slurped the drool from the corner of my mouth and rubbed my sleepy eyes. I felt like a ton of bricks were sitting on my chest and waves of nausea hit me.“Dad, is that you?” I thought I heard him. My damn head hurt, and I swear, if it was anybody else, I’d fucking kill them.A second slam was on my desk and a hard, burning slap registered on my left jaw, twisting it. My eyes shot out of my sockets. The anger roiling in my veins simmered when I gaped at the angry man with nostrils flaring at me. Coiling one fist, I brought up my hand to my chin, flexing the stinging tendons.“Look at this mess!” Dad flashed a hand across the desk, referring to the six empty whiskey bottles I chugged last night that were turned down on loose, scattered documents. “You have reports on the floor in this smelly skunk of an office.” He sniffed the air and wr
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 25 - UNCOMPLICATE IT
-NIA’S POV-How did we go from me asking ‘How’s your wound?’ to being pinned against the wall with Lykoan’s dress shirt ripped off his sculpted body?“Why don’t you check for yourself?” He taunted, taking my hands and guiding them around his bare torso to the firm ridges of his smooth back.My stomach rolled with little earthquakes that just would not quit, then they turned into a full-fledged roil when Lykoan began moving my hands up and down his skin. The sparks zinged under my fingertips with his face dipped. He stared into my soul while I was glancing up at him, dazed.I held his gaze for as long as possible, trying to prove to him that I could remain unaffected. Unlucky for me, the intensity of his eyes caused my cheeks to heat up. Motion, motion denied. I swung my eyes away.Damn, those raunchy lilac eyes!A sense of shame washed over me.There were no scar tissues on his back. He was completely healed. Realizing the awkwardly intimate position we were in and that he intended to

NIA’S POV-“We're not done yet, Alpha,” Caliste politely interjected, stopping the advancing footsteps that had made my golden ears perk up.Using my left hand, I gripped my right wrist, thrashing on my chair as I tugged and pulled, harder and harder. Yet nothing happened, only more coughing and more smoke that puffed out of my ears.My throat felt chafed, dry, and aching. Hissing from the shortness of breath, I clasped my neck, blinking my wet eyelids excessively, and I nearly passed out.My heart instantly ached for my mate. Wanting Lykoan to be at my side and make it stop. My first instinct was to scream for his assistance. However, my voice was lodged in my throat, as if some sort of imaginary block had been placed where my vocal cords were.I gripped the side of my head as a splitting headache ripped through it. The pressure built. Sweat stung my eyes like vipers. I yelped in agony. When will this terrible spell end?Then it happened.I was somewhere else, alone and petrified. I

NIA’S POV-“Nia, we invited Caliste, our pack witch.” Olsen addressed me in a cautious tone with his hazel eyes settling on mine. “To gain our trust, we require that you pass a minor test.”“Are you for real?” Lykoan scoffed. I groaned internally, reeling from the unexpected sting of that one word.“Okay.” I acquiesced with fake composure. Inside, I was freaking out. Test? What bloody test?"Excellent!" Olsen exclaimed with a nod. "I'm glad for your consent. It’s an amicable solution." He smiled, but it never touched his hazel eyes. He was hiding something.Alpha Jacques and his Beta exchanged snarky glances. He gave him a flick of the chin and T.K. moved from his spot, strolling down the table, and going towards the door. It was too late to back out without arousing more suspicion. For a piercing minute, I regretted my decision. Now, I had no choice but to see it through. To steady my heart, I forced myself to remember my initial motivation for doing this…to be acquitted of all the
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 71 - WIZENED WRANGLE
-NIA’S POV-Lykoan began to grit his teeth, and I squeezed his hand gently. Starr was antsy, more agitated as these lycans spoke in opposition to our mate. It was absurd to deny Lykoan the natural right to open his heart to whomever he pleased and to wreck his life just because of his curse.Irritation wrapped itself around my throat. “Lykoan and I met under unforeseen circumstances that bound me here. The moon goddess herself bid that I become his Sigma Spade. To go against us is to go against our deity. So, all this hostility is extremely unnecessary and aggravating."“Impossible,” ejaculated from Agnes in a high-pitched raspy voice, disbelief cloaking her timeworn features.Korbeck snorted. Thebian raked a hand through his canescent brown hair.At the same time, Jacques threw his head back and laughed out loud. “You expect us to believe you spoke with the moon goddess.” He spat bitterly. “The gods don’t bother with your kind.”Low growls reverberated around the room, to which Lykoa
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 70 - MORNING CUDDLES
-LYKOAN’S POV-Dawn's honey-peach glow awakened me from my quiet slumber. A new freshness stoked within me as if the world had been enhanced to a higher plane. That’s because Nia has lit up my life in many ways.She was sleeping soundly and wrapped around me with her head on my chest, an arm thrown over my waist, and our legs entwined. I lay there, memorizing every detail of this moment.We were both naked, too tired last night to get any clothes on. Besides, the tingling feel of our skin-to-skin sated the physical need to be near her and to touch her, not necessarily in a sexual way, but in a way that just made me feel content.Feeling Nia starting to move and stretch against me, I caressed her side, making sure she knew I was still there as she became fully awake and aware.Her eyelids fluttered, making one of her dark lashes feathered against my skin, and my chest jolted at how much it tickled.Without lifting her head, she looked up at me. Her stunning orange eyes peeked through th
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 69 - VEIL OF CONTENTMENT
-NIA’S POV-Lykoan’s dark eyebrows furrowed and a small frown adorned his lips.Torment filled his lilacs when he uttered, “The Quintessa witches tried and most of the illusions stopped except that I see her at nights. I know she’s not real but, it’s kept me sane. Our nightly talks gave me something to look forward to. It was as though she was still around. So I haven’t slept in years because I couldn’t miss one night without her.”My chest tightened, and I squeezed my eyes shut. The pain in his voice lanced through my very own soul. But, I did not want him to stop talking to me. I opened my eyes and tilted my head up to find him solemnly gazing down at me.To console him, my fingers massaged the back of his neck, making him groan and roll his shoulders.Lykoan’s throat bobbed. Then he explained with a heartbreaking tenderness. “Although, all I feel is guilt when she visits. The guilt that I couldn’t save her. The guilt that I lived, and she died with my son.”Listening keenly, I inte
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 68 - LYKOAN'S CURSE
-NIA’S POV-With slow butterfly strokes, I swam towards Lykoan. The water moved around my body in swirls as a rippling eagerness to satisfy my curiosity surged forth.His sexy lips held that devilishly attractive smirk and his sinful eyes darkened with lust. Danger, my mind screamed, well aware that he was naked, and I was naked.It was clear our wolves desired to be mated. The threads of the bond strive to connect at all endpoints. Perhaps that’s what accounted for how I yearned to open up to him.Gliding through the water, my actions surprised even me as I held his raunchy lilacs—the silver light reflecting off his skin. For the first time, after a long while, I felt light and unburdened as the water refreshed both my mind and body.Once I was close enough, he snagged me around the waist and pulled me toward him. I wrapped my legs around his torso to keep myself above the water. My hands snaked around his neck with my breasts pressed against his taut chest. Our eyes locked, and the
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 67 - NIGHT SWIM
-LYKOAN’S POV-Shuffling through my cards, I cursed under my breath. I was barely winning this Gin Rummy game against Nia.I was surprised I could concentrate right now, let alone win. I stole long glimpses of her over the top of my cards more than I managed to obtain these triple jacks.Nia had on a cerise pink cami shorts set. The curve of her chest flowing down into her small waist before billowing outward to her full hips was imprinted in my mind.The tiny, impractical, shorts showed off her smooth legs. At the same time, the frilled edge top bunched up her breasts into two mouth-drooling mounts that had me going almost feral in this chair.Oh my God. The things I would do to this woman if she would let me."You alright?" I asked her tightly as she took her time sifting through her cards.She appeared flustered as she shifted in the gray woven rope chair around the breakfast nook."The heat is maddening. It’s hard to function," she groaned, fanning herself with her hand.It wasn’t

-NIA’S POV-‘Continue the blood.’ A feathery voice played in my head. It was the moon goddess again.Lykoan’s blood was the key, but how? I still couldn’t understand what I was supposed to do.My eyes blinked as I racked my brain. I need a helping hand here, Selene. Like maybe some hints and tips for starters.Then I found Lykoan observing my facial expression from his chair. I immediately straightened my face. Acting nonchalant, I avoided his probing lilacs.“Hybrids feast on the DNA of other shifters,” Gawain explained, pulling the needle out of Lykoan’s flesh. “They think that mixing genes by cross-breeding and experiments make them unstoppable—that it’s supposed to gird them with additional abilities.” He sealed the tube with a blue cap. “The truth is combining more than three genes corrupts their DNA, and eventually they break out with diseases. Do you remember ebolipox?”“Yes,” I recalled that nasty disease that wiped out a large variety of people in the neutral territories.“Th
DARK OBSESSION FOR THE REJECTED LUNA CHAPTER 65 - RECKLESS PROVOCATION
-NIA’S POV-“Why not today?” I asked Lykoan as he piggybacked with me through the neatly cut backyard of Arrondale.That’s the name of Lykoan's property where the mansion was located. He insisted that I ride him in this uncomfortable position. It was the only way he would let me accompany him to wherever he was going.Apart from that, he smelled so good. My hands rested on top of his broad shoulders, and I kept my nose close to his neck to keep the scent dominantly constant.“You can’t open that bank account until Jacques completes your filing. Your information will be uploaded as an official member on the pack’s server. The banks screen and do their know-your-customer diligence to ensure your membership is validated and approved by the Alpha. So, even though they’ll feel the pack link within you, it’s against protocol to go ahead without the verification,” he told me as he walked past the pool in long quick strides. “I’m sure that will be done after you meet with the Elders.”Similar
