Doctor Luna was Rejected CHAPTER 44 : Rain of bullets
Lawrence POV “We have to take things easy,” I began, my voice cool and detached. “Let's not be hasty and do something we'll all regret later. We need to be careful with the decisions we make from this point on.” My tone made it clear I wasn't interested in what others might feel or say. All I cared about was doing the right thing, even if it would cost me a lot of time, energy, and resources.But first, I needed to get my priorities straight. I had to get everyone on my side. The tension in the room was growing, a palpable pressure that would shape how we viewed each other moving forward. I wasn't sure what the others were thinking, and I didn't know if I should panic or remain calm and trust that things would work out in my favor.“I’m ready for anything at this point,” Luke spat, his anger barely contained as he smirked at me.“We need to do this the right way,” the elder interjected. “Let us involve all the important personalities in this matter. We need to be cautious with our d
Doctor Luna was Rejected Chapter 45 : Recovery
Lawrence POV:I knew Luke would stop at nothing to claim the alpha position. His desperation was palpable, and I could sense that he wouldn't just sit back and wait for tomorrow. He was the type who would do anything to ensure everything worked out in his favor."I'll take you to your room now," one of the gamma wolves said, interrupting Luke's reverie as he continued to gaze around our magnificent living space. The grandeur of our mansion showcased our wealth and affluence, a testament to our royal status and dominance in the pack. Anyone who stepped inside would immediately grasp the extent of our power without needing an explanation."I'll be with you shortly," Luke replied to the gamma wolf, casting a scornful glance my way.He then moved towards the massive portrait of my parents hanging on the wall. His eyes softened as he stared at the picture, a flicker of genuine emotion crossing his face. For the first time since he had entered the house, a faint smile played on his lips. It
Doctor Luna was Rejected Chapter 46 : Smiles and desires
Lawrence POV:The ambiance of the room began to shift. Smiles spread across Bella's and Luke's faces as they exchanged a firm handshake. The room, previously heavy with tension, now seemed lighter. Everyone present caught the contagious smile that Luke wore for the first time since his arrival.Bella withdrew from the handshake and stepped back, her gaze fixed on me. “How is this possible, Lawrence?” she asked, her voice trembling slightly as she looked up at me from my elevated position. “The laws of our pack have strict rules about twins. What is happening here, Lawrence?” Her voice grew louder, a mix of curiosity and accusation.I hesitated, uncertain whether to reveal the truth. Her piercing eyes demanded answers, pushing me to speak.“The alpha’s position will be determined in the coming hours,” Luke interjected before I could respond. His words carried an unexpected weight, drawing everyone's attention.Bella's face
Doctor Luna was Rejected CHAPTER 47 The turn of events
Lawrence POVThe morning came, and the palace buzzed with activity. Every wolf was engaged in preparations for the day ahead. The anticipation was palpable as they prepared the throne room for the impending council meeting.I stood in my robe, dressing for the day. A sense of dread hung over me, casting a shadow over my thoughts. The decisions made today would shape our future, and I feared the potential loss it might bring. My focus was on navigating this treacherous path, ensuring everyone emerged alive, though I knew such a guarantee was tenuous.“Your presence is now required in the council room. The great council of elders awaits,” a gamma wolf informed me as I lingered in my chambers. I resigned, took a deep breath, and stepped out. As I walked through the grand halls of my mansion, I couldn’t help but wonder, “Is this the last time I’ll see these corridors?”Upon entering the council room, I was greeted with respect. All present stood and bowed in reverence as I took my seat a
Doctor Luna was Rejected Chapter 47 War is certain.
Lawrence POVLeaving the living room for my chambers felt like one of my most uncertain decisions. Staying there and continuing the conversation would likely lead nowhere; his desperation blinded him to any reasoning. "I'll wait until tomorrow to find a better way to relate to him," I thought. Tomorrow will bring its own revelations; let's wait and see what it holds for us.Entering my chamber, the calm, orderly nature of my room greeted me, a stark contrast to the turmoil within me. My sanctuary offered peace, but my mind was anything but tranquil. What would you expect when my long-lost twin brother suddenly reappears in my life? For years, I'd yearned for a brother, but I haven't had any, and now I have one.Yet, there was a looming threat of him being taken from me soon or me being taken away from him if I wished to have me in his life.The laws of our land were against us, against my feelings and desires, and against what I sorted for th
Doctor Luna was Rejected CHAPTER 49 Fury leads to actions.
Lawrence POV We were done for the day, and as soon as I left, I could see Elder Albert following me with a seething rage over what had transpired inside the room. His fury was palpable, evident in the way he stormed out. He quick-stepped to his car and started the engine with a roar before speeding off. I knew he was disappointed by the elders' decision, but there was nothing I could do about it. I headed straight to my chambers, needing to wrap my head around the events of the throne room today.Albert drove home in blind fury, his thoughts consumed by indignation. "These elders surely don't know what they're doing. How can they choose Luke over me? Me, of all people?" he muttered to himself as he exited his car and marched into his house. His wife immediately noticed the worry etched on his face."Your face shows your worries. What has darkened your mood this time?" she asked, concern evident in her voice."You don't need to trouble yourself. It's just some issues at the council me
Doctor Luna was Rejected Chapter 50 Take him in.
Lawrence POV:The door to my chamber was designed to admit only those who were familiar with its workings, but the silence following the knock piqued my curiosity about who it could be.I got up and approached the door, glancing at the little screen embedded in my smart door to see who was standing on the other side. “Luke.” I called, recognising him instantly. I paused for a few seconds before finally opening the door.I invited him into my chamber for the first time, uncertain what had compelled me to do so. We could have easily gone to the living room to discuss his purpose, but something in me felt like he posed no real threat here. He wouldn’t dare.“Brother, we need to talk,” he said as I stepped aside to let him in. His voice carried a weight and a sense of readiness for a long conversation; he seemed to have something important planned out in his mind already. The word "brother" caught me off guard. I did not want to expect much from him, not at this point. What has changed be
Doctor Luna was Rejected Chapter 51 Let's stay motivated.
Lawrence's POV:The solitude that enveloped my heart as Luke departed left me ample space to ponder his words. I was certain he hadn't been jesting; every syllable he spoke carried the weight of his conviction. “But why call me a brother when his actions are consistently at odds with me?” I mused aloud, lost in my contemplation.As the weight of his words settled over me, I realised urgency was paramount. The stakes of this conflict—our survival and the future of generations to come—were too high to be compromised by the decisions of a single man. I would do everything in my power to ensure that this war did not falter due to one person's choices.Although I had other plans for the day, visiting my army at the camp had to be added to my agenda. The journey to the camp was tranquil yet filled with troubled thoughts.Approaching the camp, I was greeted by the din of intense training: the rhythmic clashing of swords, the ferocious growls of wolves, and the resolute marching of men.

Even with the sunshine streaming through the window illuminating the tiles, the hospital room appeared to be freezing.Camilla laid her back on the thin pillows behind her, feeling self-conscious in the poorly woven hospital gown.Her arms were rendered immobile to her body by the metal cuffs whose edges had been tenderising her skin. The sound of chains rattled softly as she moved, trying to get into a position that was not too cramped within the confines.However, her focus was nowhere near her physical discomfort. She was exonerated for poisoning Bella's son.However, her suffering was not finished. Bella’s schemes had left emotional as well as physical scars on her.Camilla hadn’t finished the struggle, however. Her name remained sullied, and there were people in the pack, and even more so in the elders, who were not ready to absolve her.They wanted her to be put away until everyone was sure that there was nothing to be apprehensive about. Lawrence was trying to resist but it was

The sound of machines in the hospital filled the room where Camilla was, still a bit weak but recuperating.She was connected to an IV and had her wrists bandaged due to the straps that had restrained her to the bed—reminders of the fact, that needless to say, she was still considered a criminal and a patient at the same time.The grey hospital gown had been too oversized for her body. There was no mistaking the patience strength in her eyes, the vividness of life that once inhabited her can only be remembered.But Lawrence transcended. He stood next to her bed with his broad shoulders drooping, bloodshot eyes bearing the evidence of sleepless nights.His hand was just above hers, wanting to hold her hand but scared at the prospect of hurting her more.The vow he made to her was that he would bring her justice and that was one vow he would keep. But being here in this common room, looking at her wasting away from a fictitious story, every single second was a shame that he could not es
Doctor Luna was Rejected Chapter 136
The heavy door of the female prison traced a long sound down the dark corridor.Camilla sat on the hard, cold mattress, looking at the wall in search of the clusters in it.She had become used to this solitary confinement, this waiting that went for hours in this agonisingly silent place, to the thinking that after all her efforts, it was Bella’s betrayal that would ruin her.Yet deep down, it was not only fear. There was something else. Lawrence was on the warpath. He had sworn an oath to resolve the matter and extricate her from this predicament.There was no option but to endure. However, the fear about the impending threat that had been increasing over the past few days would not go away, even if Camilla wanted it to.The other female prisoners had started to gossip about something different. They would look at her sometimes with suspicion; now, that look seemed more calculated. The security men, too appeared sharper, more alert. Something was in the offing. She could sense it.As

Bella paced around her hospital room and attempted to bite the urge to panic that was building up in her system.She was in the bathroom of Frank's room thinking of how Lawrence had approached her that morning.Frank, on the other side, was not helping her, as he was clenching his jaw, making it difficult for her to ignore the tension building up in her chest.Things were going south, and the efforts of the lawyer representing Lawrence were making the situation worse every moment.She had thought that she could turn the tables—contain the situation the way she always did. Lawrence’s doggedness in wanting to lick Camilla’s accusation clean even the further it was from her was slowly but surely tearing her apart.The lawyer was a brilliant and unbending executioner who had been pricking her for weeks.Bella had not taken him very seriously, as she thought that he would eventually give up on finding any truth. But she did not expect this level of meticulousness. He was starting to dig up

Lawrence perched himself on the edge of the hospital bed, his fingers playing a drumroll along the cold metallic edge. He was cosy in deep thoughts, yet his brain was tyranny, struck with several thoughts at the same time. The young boy who was his child, was unconscious in the hospital, and so many devices were attached to his tiny form. Every beep, every breath, was painful to hear, breaking the heavy silence in the room, indicating the seriousness of the matter.Moreover, there had been additional problems concerning Frank which even the doctors could not explain. The only plausible explanation had been the poison theory up until that point. At least until the head researcher on Frank's case, Dr Nolan had wanted to speak to him privately.Embarrassingly enough, every sensation caused in him was mixed with tension. The chilling thought of Camilla tortured him. She was in a prison cell, waiting for her turn to be acquitted of the charges of poisoning Frank. It had all been Bella’s tr

At the moment her heels clicked on the ground, and the enormous boughs of metal gates crashed behind her, panic coursed through Camilla. The implacable ambience of the barricade encased her in a thick layer of mist.She heard her footsteps bouncing off the walls in the long stretch that had steel-barred cells on all sides. The other occupant who was being brought in looked at her with a fierce intensity that signalled annoyed, hollow, and accusing silence.The door was opened by the guards and she made to come in. Camilla avoided eye contact with her because she looked like trouble.Hours passed, and she was still hearing them constantly bickering about her poisoning a child.She had to remind herself that this was not true. It was a horrible fiction, one that she found herself accusatory burning into the present time because of Bella's machinations.For having allegedly attempted to poison Bella's child, Camilla had lost her freedom and her self-respect.Now, stuck in the exhausted ex

Doctor Luna was Rejected Chapter 131 :
Camilla was in prison. How could all this have happened so fast? First, it was that room where they interrogated her, and the next thing she knew, she landed in a cell.It still couldn't fully get into her head what had happened. It was like an Andy Warhol painting facade of surrealness that would eventually take the form of reality when she was out of it with her sanity intact.A moment before, Camilla had stood in front of the door to her cell as it creaked open under the command of the guard's key.The guard himself didn't say a word.Once she was inside, the heavy door slammed shut with a loud click.Saying nothing, he turned and walked away. If her cell was an inch shorter, she wouldn't be able to stand in it. The only furniture was a steel toilet, while the only lighting came from one window made of thick iron.Camilla sat down on the bed and put her head in her hands. She did not cry. Lawrence would rescue her; he had to do that. He had promised her thus.Hours had passed after
Doctor Luna was Rejected Chapter 130
Camilla sat on the chair where she was left alone after Lawrence had gone. She could hear the guards talking from the other side. But the only thing that came to her mind was how all of these happened. It was just a beautiful morning, in less than twenty-four, and she was accused of murder. A child murder.The accusation against her was so sudden that she had no idea what was going on. “Poison?” The word left her mouth and she thought of how she could even get a hold of one“Poisoning a child?”It was unimaginable to her.Yet, here she was. In jail. Accused of something so despicable. It made her feel sick.She rubbed her hands all over her face trying to breathe. Everything wasn't going her way at all.“Who?” she whispered. . “Who could have possibly done this?”She racked her brain, thinking of every moment leading up to the incident. He was fine. Then she served him his food along with Gia and George. He began to have a seizure.She knew she was in big trouble. Everything seemed
