Rejected Luna: He wants me back 222 : Disappeared
ELIJAH I rush over to him and check his pulse. It's not there. My face turns pale. He’s dead? The realization hits me like a cold wave. I look down at my father, his body limp and lifeless. A surge of horror and guilt washes over me. I killed him. I didn’t mean to kill him. I was so enraged at his words, that I lost control. Am I really a killer just like he said? Did I really kill my mom?I drop to the ground, resting my arms on my knees as I stare at what I have done. The weight of my action presses down on me, a crushing burden. I have killed my father. What kind of monster am I? I run my palm over my face. This is not how I imagined my day to begin with. I mind-link Josh. “Yes, what’s up?” “Find me in the forest.” I order him. “Okay. You alright?” “Just come!” I growl, the guilt and fear inside me making it hard to breathe. “Okay. Give me a few minutes.” I rest my head between my arms and close my eyes. How will I stand before Rena after what I did? Will she look at me
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 223 : Asking For Some Time
ELIJAH“I don’t get it.” I sigh and explain everything to him through the mind-link. What dad told me about my destiny, the hallucinations, me being a Shadow wolf. His face turns pale and he scowls. “It's all rubbish, man. He’s spewing lies.” I step closer to him and stare at him in the eye. “Is it? Josh, you were there the day we hijacked the castle and I captured Cyrus. You saw what happened. Be honest with me. Doesn't it all make sense?” I ask him and he looks away. Minutes pass and he seems to have trouble giving me an answer. He sensed it too. The day I lost control over Cyrus and Irene had to snap me out of it. The day those Ashwalker wolves walked away just because I growled at them, as if they were obeying me. “This is a fucking mess!” He exhales sharply and runs his hand through his hair. I look ahead and stare at the packhouse. “I know. If what dad said is true, then I am the one Rena needs to stay away from. Even the kids.” My heart clenches so painfully, I find it har
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 224 : Getting Used to It
VERENA After I shower with Elijah, I get dressed and head over to the kids' room to wake them up. Much to my surprise, Ezra and Venus are sleeping peacefully in their beds. Venus not waking up and not crying is the most surprising because she always did that in the Moonlight Pack. Is it because she’s in her home pack?No matter where Venus was born, she has the blood of the Iron Claw Pack running through her veins. Maybe she feels more comfortable here because of the presence and scent of Elijah. It's the gap only a father can fill.I gently wake her up first, and the noise she makes causes Ezra to wake up.“Ugh, stop, Veenie. I’m sleeping.” He groans, flipping over to the other side of the bed.“Wake up, Ezzie. It's eight already,” I tell him, and he groans in response.“I want to sleep some more,” he whines, and I narrow my eyes at him while I pick Venus up.“No, wake up. You have to go to school.” I scold him, and he looks over his shoulder while lying down.“Mommy, I don’t have a
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 225 : Fast Healing
VERENAIrene makes a sound with her mouth before she gulps and answers. “No, because of how we had a lot of wars going on, I decided to focus my time here, training the female warriors and guiding them. The border military has another commander who’s my replacement, and he’s doing his job well. I take reports from him every week and visit the place once in a while to make sure everything is running smoothly.”I nod. “Training the female warriors is crucial. I have the same law in the Moonlight Pack.”“Mhmm. We should spar someday. It’s been a long time since we had a good fight.” She winks, and I grin.“I’m looking forward to it,” I mutter, and realize I have started making coffee for Elijah. When did I begin? I don’t even remember.“Looks like Luna does not need my help to guide her,” Nona gives me a warm smile.Irene smirks and grabs another banana. “Old habits die hard. You still remember where everything is kept.” She rests her arm on the counter, a thoughtful look on her face. “E
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 226 : The Pack's Future
VERENA“Yeah, why do you ask?” He looks at me, and I’m not sure if I’m seeing things, but I notice concern in his eyes.I shake my head. “Nothing.” He gives me a small smile that doesn’t reach his eyes and walks away.I can’t be wrong. Something was off.“I sensed it too. He’s hiding something,” Serena mutters in my head, having woken up from her slumber. Throughout this year, I’ve learned to trust my intuition, just like Maria advised, and I also believe in Serena’s strength. Her wisdom is growing, and she seems to know more as each month passes. It’s as if she’s remembering everything.I settle in Elijah’s chair, taking a deep sniff of his scent on it. It instantly calms me, and I stare out of the window. What Elijah told me in the shower keeps revolving in my head. Regef and Nixie could be working together. But why? What problem does Nixie have with me? I had never met her before.I try to remember if there was any instance where I had met her, but nothing comes to mind.Then a str
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 227 : Matching Outfits
VERENA“You’re overthinking it. Becoming his Luna is equivalent to marriage for werewolves. The only thing left is to mark each other. Marriage is for humans,” Serena tells me, and I feel reassured.Yeah, she’s right. We are wolves, so in a way, we’re getting married according to werewolf laws when he makes me the Luna of the Iron Claw Pack. Maybe Elijah wants to do it the traditional way. It's a celebration in itself.---One week later.“Rena!” Maria pops her head through the door, and my eyes widen with excitement at seeing her.“Maria. Come in,” I gesture at her with a wave of my hand.“Rena, I swear if you move again, I’ll make you look like a ghost with this liner,” Irene points at the liner pen she’s holding. I shrug.“I can do it myself,” I pout, but she shakes her head.“Nope, not happening. I have a vision in my head, and you’re not going to ruin it, Missy.” She says in her sassy tone and leans toward me. “Now stay still. Pretend you are a statue.” She shakes the eyeliner pen
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 228 : Couple Poses
VERENA“Dad helped me!” Ezra says, holding Elijah’s hand. Elijah smiles at him and caresses his head.“Time for a family photo,” Maria says, and Elijah walks toward us with Ezra.“Use my phone,” Elijah hands Irene his phone and then looks at me. “Forgive me, as I don’t have any words to tell you how beautiful and sexy you look tonight.” He whispers, his hot breath fanning my ear and turning my cheeks hot. “Why don’t you show me when the party ends?” I whisper back. “Eagerly. Look forward to it,” He gives me a wink. “Ahem. Admire each other later. Talk less, pose more.” Irene scolds us and Elijah rolls his eyes. Ezra chuckles. We do some poses together, and Venus is uncooperative as usual. Ezra, on the other hand, seems very much into it and is giving some good poses. He’s sometimes looking at Elijah and following what he’s doing. “Good. Now some couples pose. You two…” Irene points at Elijah and me. I blush. Maria takes Venus and Ezra steps away. “Mommy and daddy should hold ha
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 229 : Luna Ceremony
VERENAHer tired eyes brighten as she sees me, and she opens her arms to embrace me in a hug. During the week, I visited her in the Mountain Cross pack, and the doctor advised her to stay on bed rest for a few days. I invited her to the ceremony and promised to ensure she’s taken care of throughout the entire party."It's so good to see you again." She cups my face and gives me a warm smile.“You too,” I nod and grin at her. I’m so glad she’s doing fine now.“Hey,” I hear another voice and smile when I see Carlisle walk in. He looks good in his dark gray blazer over a maroon turtleneck sweater. His gaze slides over my appearance. “You look stunning tonight, just as usual,” he compliments me.I feel a strong arm wrap around my waist. Elijah stands beside me, throwing a sharp look toward Carlisle. I hold his hand and give it a light squeeze. He doesn’t need to feel threatened. He’s always going to be the one I love.I turn back to Carlisle. “Thanks for coming.”He smiles. “You invited u
