Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Life and Death
Mae’s P.O.VMy knees buckled and I almost crumbled to the ground as my hands flew over my mouth and my heart sank into my stomach. The tears that threatened to fall as I eavesdropped on Marcel’s conversation with Robert, streamed down my face.I retracted my step, dread settling at the pit of my stomach while I quickly wiped off my tears as soon as a maid walked by, lowering her head in reverence for me. I swallowed hard as different thoughts coursed through my mind. Was he suspicious of me and was that why he asked for the information of the past workers in the house? Was there a high chance that he was starting to recover his memories?No! If he did, then I was going to know and he constantly used his medications so that wasn't possible. But what if he finds out the truth because of his growing suspicion of me? Swallowing the heavy lump that formed in my throat, I ran down the hallway, rushing down the stairs with tears cascading down my cheeks. I needed to do something. There
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Yearn
Elodie’s P.O.VI rolled my eyes to the back, walking behind Marcel who seemed kind of worried for Mae. I was so sure that this was one of her petty tricks and she did this just to gain his attention.My only relief was that he was starting to see through her for who she was but at the same time, it was saddening to see him still giving her any attention. Mae knew how to toil with him. As we walked down the hallway, I soon caught sight of Axel standing in front of a door. He was talking with a nurse and when Marcel called out to him, he left the nurse’s side, running towards Marcel. Standing before Marcel, he exhaled sharply and the next thing was that he wrapped his hands around Marcel, nuzzling his chin on his shoulder while he squeezed his eyes shut. Axel muttered . “If I wasn’t there, she could have died in the fire. She just lost consciousness due to the smoke but the doctor said she is fine”“Seeing her in that situation, I was reminded about our parents. I don’t want to lose
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Going Back To Where It Started
Elodie’s P.O.V I replayed the conversation between Mae and Axel in the courtyard to Ezra who listened attentively before a scoff left his mouth. “She is despicable” “The two of them are. While Axel's own stem from a misunderstanding and sudden hate, Mae's own is what I can’t understand” I responded, my eyes meeting his while he heaved an exasperated sigh. “However, the bright side is that we now have the upper hand here” When Mae fired everyone in the house and replaced them with the people that she had hired, I didn’t think much about it and didn’t suspect more foul things about it. However, ever since Ezra recovered and began digging into Mae’s relationship with Darius, it turned out that the new employees were in one way related to Darius. People that he once threatened. People that he once helped. People that lived under his mercy. People who owed him. So, Ezra used that information by meeting secretly with the head servant, promising to pay the debt owed to Darius
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Friends Reunion
Mae’s P.O.VMy mind wandered back to when Marcel presented me with a small box. In the box, a diamond necklace was nestled inside and after that, he bought me different luxurious dresses and personally picked me up at the hospital instead of sending the chauffeur when I was discharged. Marcel even opened the car’s door for me and for the first time since we fell apart, Marcel smiled genuinely at me. Things were now falling into place. I couldn’t have done all of this if it weren’t for Axel and most importantly, Darius. I was glad that he walked into my life. Because of the havoc that I was able to wreak on Elodie in the media, Darius pre-ordered a thousand copies of my books and the interesting thing was that Marcel didn’t react to the news in the media nor did he bother to protect Elodie. He must have realized that being with her would cause him more calamity. He was in love with me now and that was all that mattered. I was soon snapped out of my reverie when my friend, Alice,
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) My son
Marcel’s P.O.VTossing my phone aside, the chauffeur increased the speed of the car while panic washed over me. I couldn’t forget the pain in Sage’s voice that rang through my ears and most importantly, my heart squeezed with pain when he refused to speak to me. None of the triplets did and that shattered my heart. Because of that, I decided to sort out the issue between us, move forward, and regain that father-to-children spark. I heaved an exasperated sigh when it suddenly flashed through my mind that Elodie was telling me about what could be the reason why the triplets were giving me cold shoulders. I could have known that day if it weren’t for Mae’s fire accident. Now that I thought about it, she did mention something about Mae being involved. Loosening my tie, I removed the upper button, while heaving an exasperated sigh as my eyes squeezed shut. At that moment, my phone vibrated against the chair and revulsion swirled in my mind because I knew that it was no one other than
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Flipping the tables
Marcel’s P.O.V Just by recollecting the whole drama that happened yesterday night, I developed a sudden headache. I was forced to take Mae home because she was bent on creating a scene and Aunt Nadia who held a grudge towards her for years wasn’t having any of her drama. I could have confronted her yesterday concerning what the triplets said and why she would tell the triplets something stupid but Elodie was adamant on me feeding her with her delusions. There were no two words to describe whatever Mae did yesterday other than she was going crazy. The doctor’s words snapped me out of my reverie as the door to his office slammed shut behind him. I turned, locking gazes with him while he held the bottle containing the pills that I had stopped taking. I was now in Hawaii. “Mr Marcel, I am sorry for keeping you waiting. I was discussing with my colleagues concerning this pill” He said, sitting behind the mahogany desk while flashing me a smile that I returned. I watched as he g
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Missing Us
ELODIE A knock sounded on my door— Scary, hard, and insistent. Swirling a wine glass in my hand, my gaze was fixated on the door, the whistling sound from the kettle triggering the senses in my head. Only one name popped into my head. Darius. Darius bouncing back to the top must have prompted his audaciousness because I couldn't count the number of times that he had to send gifts that I had rejected. Earlier this morning, Darius had sent Saint Laurent heels to my office with some stupid note about how he wanted me to come to dinner with him. Noon, he sent a bright red sequin dress, accompanied by a bouquet of fresh roses. Evening, he had sent a silver necklace and another ridiculous note concerning how he was going to make things work between us. I heaved an exasperated sigh. It was just right that he was the one at the door. When I got home, I had destroyed everything he sent, sending it back to him while leaving a note that I was going to destroy his fucking fac
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Banana Cake
Elodie’s P.O.VMy eyes fluttered open while I turned, fixing my gaze on the lofty ceiling that chandeliers hung from with half-lidded eyes. It was weird, I slept well. I barely slept well ever since the course of my life was turned upside down. Sitting upright while leaning against the headboard, I ran my eyes around the room lazily, a wince escaping my lips and slowly, the memories from earlier flashed through my mind. My eyes widened and I threw a glance back to the bed. Marcel! We both slept on the same bed! Could he have left already? Anger and dissatisfaction surged within me and a frown replaced the confused expression on my face. He could have woken me up. Sliding out of the bed, I tossed the duvet on the bed aside, sauntering towards the door but as soon as I pushed the door open, the tantalizing scent of omelettes hit me in the nostrils. It had been long since I had woken up to the smell of breakfast and the housekeeper hardly made breakfast for herself whenever she ca

Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Epilogue (Wedding Bells)
Epilogue **After One Year** The setting sun cast a golden glow over the ethereal surroundings as the sound of waves crashing in the distance echoed through my ears. My heart pounded against my chest in anxiety despite the excitement that bubbled deep within me. The air hung heavy with anticipation and on exchanging fleeting glances with the triplets who keep taking pictures of me with their cameras, I shot a wink at them. Silas gesticulated before he mouthed. “Daddy, don't overdo the smile. Smile, like this” I did just as he had said while the guests laughed at the silent conversation between Silas and me. I gave Silas a thumbs-up while Silver gave a gentle applause that was almost inaudible. Sage on the other hand sat next to Aunt Nadia, Leah, and Axel who carried both Elysia and Daisy in his arms while Sage made funny faces to them. Staring at the scene before me, I fiddled with my fingers in anticipation, carefully waiting for my bride. “She is here” Someone murmu
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Grief & Joy
Elodie’s P.O.VThe clouds darkened, thunder rumbling through the sky while I stood rooted to the same spot frozen. The rain first started like a gentle patter but in the next minute, the rain enveloped me totally, soaking my clothes as my hair clung to my face. I was too numb to speak. Too shocked to even wrap my head around what had happened. I could barely move my legs but I mustered the courage and dragged my feet towards the railings, staring down at Darius's lifeless body. His blood that soaked the metal spikes was being washed away by the rain that fell heavily. I should be relieved that he was dead…But the more I stared at his lifeless body, the more dread settled at the pit of my stomach and I saw myself on the metal spikes. My breath came in ragged gasps as I gripped the railings and that was when the images of Ezra spurting out blood flashed through my mind. My shoulders sagged and the more I gripped the railings, the more different emotions crashed over me. I crumbled
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Baby Shower (Part Two)
Elodie’s P.O.VOh my. The necklace looked pretty on me. I trailed my fingers on the necklace and stared at my reflection in the mirror, that was when the reality hit me that Silver wasn’t back with my phone yet. He didn’t know where he dropped his phone tablet and pleaded with me to give him my phone so he could call his dad. “Could he be playing games on my phone?” I muttered to myself, standing up and that was when it dawned on me that even my hair stylist wasn’t back yet. I glanced at her empty cup of juice and darted my eyes back to mine which was still untouched. “What could she be taking downstairs?” I muttered to myself, opening the door to the room, and stepping out while calling for Silver’s name. But the only response I got was his name which returned as echoes in my ears. Something was wrong.What was going on? Walking down the hallway, relief flooded through me when I saw Aunt Nadia sleeping on the couch next to the vase of flowers. “Aunt Nadia, you should go into
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Baby Shower (Part One)
Marcel’s P.O.V*** Baby Shower ***Strings of pink, white, and silver balloons floated gently in the sunlit garden. Tulips, daisies, and peonies decorated every corner while I stood amidst it all, staring around like a proud dad. I had canceled all my schedule just to participate in the decoration after inviting a team of event planners from Thailand. As a smile formed on my face, the only thought that coursed through my mind was how Elodie was going to love this.I could already picture the look that was going to be on her face when she stepped into the garden later in the evening. All of a sudden, I was jolted out of my thoughts when a maid stood before me and on getting my attention, she lowered her head. “Sir, the popular cake corner called concerning how the delivery was going to be late. They claimed that there was a mix-up with the cake decorations”“I would be going alongside the head servant to monitor the progress of the cake. We will ensure that it gets here before the b
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Elysia
Marcel’s P.O.VIn the doctor’s office, Elodie stared into space, before heaving a sigh while her hands were clasped tightly in mine. A small smile played on my face, amused with the way a strand fell on her face. I was about to remove my hands from her’s in a bid to brush off the strand when she turned to look at me, a glint of worry in her eyes and distress written on her face. She has been like this lately. It worsened since the night she accepted my marriage proposal and the annoying thing was she didn't want to see a doctor and instead stuck to paranoia. I was soon jolted out of my thoughts when she muttered. “Marcel, what if it is a stomach infection or cancer?”Heaving an exasperated sigh, I shook my head. “That is why we are here. I told you that it isn't any of this”Her voice shook. “It is not like you are a doctor. Plus I have never felt this way before and I have been seeing symptoms that relate to stomach cancer and stomach infection”“We should have seen the pack docto
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Love Love
Elodie’s P.O.VImages of Susan’s lifeless body in the creek flashed through my mind and the way Marcel’s strong arms encircled me, pulling my trembling body against his chest in a bid to stop my gaze from lingering on her disfigured face. Darius was a monster. A monster that I never wanted to lay eyes on for the rest of my life. Marcel assured me that he was going to find Darius and finish him off as fast as possible. It has been two months since Susan died and still, that grotesque image of her in the creek kept lingering in my mind. I was so traumatized that the only one who helped me was Marcel and right now, I was pissed at him. Recently, I have been having crazy mood swings that really scared Marcel off at times and right now I was boiling because I had planned a movie night with him just for him to bail out on me at the last minute. My gaze lingered on his message telling me that he wasn't going to be coming because something important suddenly came up. Like I wasn't impor
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Love and Rejection
Elodie’s P.O.V Taking my gaze off the ornate glass chandeliers, adorned with delicate crystal pieces that hung from the intricately designed ceiling, I paused beside Marcel. He glanced at me briefly before turning swiftly, his eyes softening and lighting up as if he had just seen an irreplaceable treasure.Staring into the ethereal green of my eyes, Marcel wrapped his fingers around my waist drawing me closer to him as he buried his face at the side of my neck, nibbling in a way that sent shivers down my spine. It was like he was basking in my scent. He was warm. My haven and my peace. I loved him. A lot. His lips grazed my skin, sending sparks of fire in its wake. “You are like a delicate flower that I want to keep, adorn, cherish, and nurture forever, ensuring you bloom endlessly. To the very end”“You are so beautiful, I feel like I want to end the party, take your clothes off, and show you how much you mean to me”My hand rested on his shoulders, while I muttered under my bre
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) Redemption
Darius’s P.O.VMy lips trembled as a searing pain racked through my body while I hung limply from the chains that bound my wrists to the walls, my upper body exposed and covered with cuts which blood dripped from. Another lash landed on my back and a groan left my lips, my vision blurred with a red haze as I gritted my teeth. “Stop!” A husky voice echoed off the walls of Layzal’s dungeon as the whip made a soft thud as it was dropped against the ground. As soon as the doors to the dungeon closed, hot tears streamed down my face and a bitter laughter spiraled from me. It has been two weeks since Marcel eliminated all the council members who were responsible for everything that happened to his family. He had chosen new members of the council, and taken over my pack with my idiotic park members in support of that tyrant. Marcel changed the name of the pack to the moonstone pack. He probably named it after my late son. That bastard!I was soon jolted out of my thoughts when a dark au
Return Of The Unwanted Luna (You Can’t Have Me) You Failed
Darius’s P.O.VI jolted awake as my eyes flew open and my chest heaved up and down. Staring at the ceiling which a candle chandelier hung while the grotesque image of the nightmare clung to the back of my mind like a dark stubborn shadow that seemed more like it was soon going to close in on me.I sat up slowly, leaning against the headboard while staring into space as memories of the nightmare flashed through my mind. My breath came in short, shallow gasps as I ran my hands through my hair frustratedly. I had seen myself falling off a cliff and I was in my pool of blood. Could it be the lingering fear of Layzal doing something to me that made me have this horrible nightmare? It had to be it. There was no way that I was going to die! I would never allow that. I will do everything to stay alive and get my children back from Marcel. “I won't die! Not now…not now” I muttered to myself while placing a hand on my chest that heaved slowly, sliding off the bed, as I walked to the bathroo
