Return of the Rejected Luna Chapter 33: “Showtime…”
Twenty four hours. Twenty four hours had passed and there was no sign of any gathering of the pack members, not even an announcement was made for a potential gathering. “Let’s be patient Ida and give her another day to tell the truth.” Forty eight hours had now passed and yet Liana was not calling for a gathering of the pack members to tell the truth about the prophecies and the danger the pack was in. Seventy two hours later, Liana looked comfortable, too comfortable, like she had not received a blackmail letter three days ago. Liana was ignoring me, probably calling my bluff. She wasn’t going to make things easy for me, was she? “There’s a meeting with the alpha, the beta and the elders. Ally, you come with me. Alexa, stay here till we come back.” “Yes, Luna.” Is she trying to keep me out? “Let’s get going Ally.” When they leave the room, I smile to myself. “Trying to leave me out, Liana? I don’t think so.” I slip the map of the underground tunnels out from my pocket and look for t

It takes all my strength to stop myself from laughing at the panic on Liana’s face. Derek and Asher both look confused by her outburst but Liana pays them no mind and snatches the letter from Derek’s hands. “There must have been a mistake, this is actually for me. I’ve been expecting it.” “The guard said it was for Derek. Isn’t it addressed to him?” Asher says. “This actually says ‘the oracle of the moon goddess’, and that’s me Asher.” She replies. Is it? After a tense silence, she excuses herself and leaves the hall. My work here is done, so I shut the hidden door and make my way back to where I came from. My new destination, is the hidden door to the office of the Luna. This tunnel is in even worse condition than the others I’ve been in so far. There are thick cobwebs lined with heavy layers of dust that pulls the cobwebs far from the ceiling. It is a struggle heading into a sea of thick, dusty cobwebs but I do it anyway. When I get to the secret door, I find that I don’t need to o

“Alexa? Are you okay? You look kind of pale. Do you want to sit down?” Hope grabs my hand and I am grateful for the contact. My throat feels like its closing and my breaths come in short pants. I suddenly feel lightheaded. “Alexa!” Hope’s voice sounds like she’s screaming my name from underwater. “Hope, I can’t breathe!” I’m not sure if I get those words out but I know for a fact that I look at her with desperation and panic in my eyes. From the fog around me, I can feel Ida’s panic rising as she growls and growls, trying to reach me, but everything sounds like it is coming from far away and I am alone where I am, not even my wolf is with me. I close my eyes and count to ten in my head but when I open them, I find myself in a dark forest. All I can see are trees all around me. I catch a glimpse of red eyes in the dark but when I look again, they are gone. “Ida? Ida, can you hear me?” I call to my wolf but all I hear is silence. “Ida, please.” I am crying now, the tears flow freely fr

“Who’s Ida?” Asher asks, effectively stopping me from running away from these confusing feelings. “Ida?” I say, turning to face him slowly with a fake ‘I’m confused’ expression on my face. “You mentioned the name quite a lot while you were asleep.” Asher says carefully, watching me with those sharp eyes of his, I needed be careful. “Oh Ida, she’s an old friend of mine.” I don’t remember ever telling Asher the name of my wolf when I was Genevieve, so I hope I’m right and lie. “Any particular reason why you kept on calling for her in your sleep?” he asks, not bothering to hide his curious stare. My mind flashes to the weird dream I had, those creepy red eyes in the darkness and the feel of those hands holding me down, swarming up all over my body. I shiver when I remember the laugh of the mysterious person, ‘it’ had called me Genevieve. “I have been away from home for a while, I guess I just miss her. She’s my closest friend.” Asher is about to say something more but I don’t think I h

The next day, Liana looks like a new person and not the ill-behaved cat she was yesterday. Her face has a rosy glow to it and she has the look of a woman well satisfied (or at least I think she is satisfied. I don’t know how a satisfied woman looks like.) “Luna, you look well rested today.” Ally says with heart signs in her eyes. “Oh, I certainly feel much better today, thank you Ally.” Liana looks at me, like she’s expecting me to comment on the glow around her. “Luna.” I say with a half-hearted nod. Her smile falters a little bit but comes back, even brighter and wider than before. “You seem to be in a foul mood, Alexa. I hope your day gets better.” Oh, I know it will, I say to myself. Liana opens her door and falters when she sees the white envelope on her office floor, like it had been slipped in from the small slit under the door. Her smile dims a little bit, and it disappears completely when she sees that the ‘addressed to’ part of the envelope has ‘Oracle of the moon goddess?

I’m not sure why I run away from the tunnel but my instincts tell me it was the right thing to do in that moment, so I ran. In the back of my mind, I realize that I just missed the best chance I had to see who Liana’s lover was but I remember the feeling I got back in the tunnel. The mystery man had suddenly turned and looked directly at me, it felt like he could see me peeking at them from the peephole. That was unlikely but, in that moment, I was so sure he had seen me behind the secret wall. Once I make it outside the residence of the alpha/luna, I take the time to catch my breath and collect my thoughts. I had just gotten more ammunition to use against Liana. Not only had she lost her position and powers as the oracle of the moon goddess, she was also cheating on Derek -her supposed mate. Cheating on your mate was one of the most painful things that could ever happen to the other mate, I still remember how I felt when Derek left me for Liana . Sometimes, it left the cheated mate

Liana’s hands ball the letter into her fists, she grabs the coffee mug on her desk and hurls it across the room then lets out a scream of pure rage. The door opens and Ally with some guard-wolves rush into the room. “What’s wrong, Luna?” Ally asks. Everything, I say to myself. Liana throwing her mug across the room, has put me in the war zone of her rage. Glass shards pierce my arm and hot coffee splashes on my leg. I left Ally to calm the angry Luna down and went to treat my injuries. At least I knew I hadn’t misunderstood what I had seen, Liana was cheating on Derek. How long had it been going on? From the way they talked, it looked like they had known each other for a while, probably before she got mated to Derek and married him. Many parts of their conversation also didn’t make any sense to me. What had her lover meant by, they will be together soon? Weren’t they already together? The whole thing was confusing to me but I could think about that later. By the time noon had roll

“What do you mean his aura is gone?” I ask Ida. I’m not sure where the panic is coming from but it feels strange to see such a powerful alpha wolf like this and Ida’s observation certainly doesn’t help. “It’s just like I felt with Liana, there’s something different about Derek as well.” I shake Derek with all of my might but he doesn’t wake up, he doesn’t even stir. “I need help.” I rush out of the hallway and spot some elders in the distance. I’m about to call for help when a thought hits me. Derek wouldn’t want them to see him this way, weak and powerless, it was going to make them disrespect him. Who could Derek trust to help him when he was like this? Asher. The answer is clear and simple. Even though I could sense some tensions between them lately, Asher would always fulfill his duty to help his alpha and longtime friend, putting all issues between them aside. I rush to the balcony, hoping that no one will come into the dim-lighted hallway and see the unconscious alpha yet and p

Return of the Rejected Luna Chapter 125: “You can hate me but…”
It takes some time for me to get to my senses, pull myself up and off from the ground and start looking for a way to fix this mess. Ramsey had not locked me back into the suite, probably assuming that I was going to curl up into a ball and cry myself to sleep. He was dead wrong. Ramsey had given Ryder the opportunity to ask for anything from me, he had sensed that I was willing to do anything. It made no sense that Ryder asked for Hope. Ryder wasn’t a gentleman, he was a brute so he didn’t need to ask me for her when he could take her by force. Ryder was playing with me.The first place I go to from the office is the hidden room I set up. It is empty and looks clean, so I guess Asher heard what happened and got out but I have no idea where he is. I grab what I need from the hidden room and head for Jessa and Hope’s house. The rogue guards watch me leave the residence of the alpha, they don’t try to stop me but I’m sure they’ll send someone to follow me. I didn’t care, as far as they l
Return of the Rejected Luna Chapter 124: “…I really mean it this time.”
“Ryder!” I bang my fists against the locked door of the alpha’s suite. I had been locked in the suite for almost a week now, and I was so sick and tired of being locked in here as if I was a common criminal. “Ryder!” I try again but he just ignores me. I know he’s out there, standing guard until he fully recovered from the bashing he received from Ida. “What is Ramsey up to? What is he doing?” No answer. “Hey! Stop ignoring me and let me out of here! I need to talk to him.”My fists were already burning from the force I was using to bang on the door so I decided it was probably best that I take a break. I slid down the door as my thoughts went back to Hope. Two days had already passed since she first came to see me and I still had no idea about what to do to convince Ramsey to let Kylan go. Did it mean I was giving up? No, there was no way I was going to let Hope’s baby grow up without a father. But there was also no way I was going to give up Asher’s location or reject him. I was stu

“Kylan, no!” I scream just as he brings down the silver club on Ramsey’s head. The intention to kill Ramsey is so clear in Kylan’s eyes. For a moment, time slows down as Kylan brings the club down and then it happens so fast that for a split second, I don’t understand what happens. The club connects but not on Ramsey’s head and then Kylan is pushed so hard that he collides into a tree that breaks into two from the impact. That is how hard he was pushed.My mouth is wide open in shock as I take in the scene before me. Ryder stands over Ramsey, with blood pouring down his arm with the look of murder on his face. Where on earth did he come from? I realize that he blocked the blow meant for Ramsey’s head with his hand and then shoved Kylan away like he was swatting away a fly.“Alpha, are you okay?” Ryder helps Ramsey up to his feet, he staggers a bit before standing still and wiping the blood dripping down his head. Ramsey shakes off Ryder’s hand and points to Kylan who is still trying t
Return of the Rejected Luna Chapter 122: “…the aftermath…”
I am trying so hard to rein Ida in but she’s too strong for me to suppress. She stands there growling at a rage filled Ramsey, ready to do anything to protect me and my oath to our mate. “Ida, don’t provoke him! He might hurt you!” What was I saying? Ramsey had already found out that I didn’t reject Asher and that was provoking enough for him. He practically vibrated with anger as he stood across from me.“I want to speak to Alexa, bring her to me now!” He finally explodes and charges at Ida, eyes dark with rage. My best bet and the only way I could get out of this situation with little or no injuries would be to let Ida take full control, I had to stop holding her back. Ida dodges Ramsey’s first attack and I decide to let her handle this, I was out of options.Ramsey’s eyes change to the colour of his wolf –a creepy red colour, as he watches me shift into my wolf. Ida bares her razor sharp teeth at him and stands ready for whatever he was going to throw at us. “Is this how you want i
Return of the Rejected Luna Chapter 121:“You’re not my mate!”
“Are you okay?” “I’m fine, why are you asking?” “Nothing, you just seem a bit…” “Tired?” I supply. It was hard for me to hide anything from Asher, especially now that we were mates. He knew me and he saw things that I thought I had hidden well. After Ramsey’s declaration of a second wedding night, I had searched for a solution but found none and the weekend started tomorrow. I had ended up giving myself a headache and I looked even worse than before. I had given up on finding a solution and decided to come see Asher. We were cuddling on the small bed in the room as he lazily stroked my back.I thought I had hidden my worry about the situation I was in well from him, but he just saw right through it. “Yeah, you look tired but that wasn’t what I was going to say. Are you sure everything is okay?” Asher says with a frown on his face as he tilts my face to his. I had to think of something fast or he was going to find out about the wedding night, and there wasn’t anything I could do to sto
Return of the Rejected Luna Chapter 120: "...delusion..."
“Where were you, Alexa?” Ramsey says again and walks slowly towards me, like a lion stalking its prey. “I couldn’t sleep so I went for a walk.” When did I become so anxious at the sight of Ramsey? No, this wasn’t a new thing, he always gave me a bad feeling whenever I saw him, but these days, especially since the day he killed those innocent people, the sight of him made my skin crawl even more. “I know I haven’t been so attentive to you these days and I’m sorry, you’ll have me all to yourself this weekend.” “What does that mean?” Ramsey nods to a seat in the room.When I finally settle down, he continues. “We haven’t had our wedding night yet, Alexa. It makes it feel like something is missing from our marriage.” I try not to shake his hand off of me when he starts to stroke my hair. “We need this wedding night to bond us, to bring us closer. The pack needs an alpha and a luna, you know.” “Who told you that we needed a wedding night to be close?” “Alexa, we are married.” “So?” “So, I
Return of the Rejected Luna Chapter 119: "...reunion."
Choosing Asher was the best decision I made in those tense moments. “I’m so glad you’re safe. Thank you for being safe.” I manage to say around the tears clogging my throat. “I promised you, didn’t I?” Asher replies with a small smile on his face. My smile is so huge as I run my hand through his shoulder length hair. “You need a haircut.” “Later.” “Why not now?” “Later.” He says again. “Asher you-“His lips press on mine, cutting off whatever I was going to say. “I missed you. So much.” He murmurs against my lips.My arms go around his neck as he deepens the kiss, pulling me closer to him by wrapping his strong arms around my waist. I missed those arms around me so much. My hands make a trail from around his neck, down his chest and slip under his shirt to feel those hard muscles. I moan when my fingers connect to them and decide that this isn’t enough, I want skin on skin. Asher stops me when I fiddle with his buttons and I am about to protest when he rips the shirt off himself, scatt
Return of the Rejected Luna Chapter 118: “…my destiny.”
I haven’t been able to sleep for the past three days. When night comes, all I do is toss and turn in my bed. The few times I’ve been able to sleep, my dreams are filled with images of Henry the guard-wolf, looking at me with sad eyes while blood pours from the hole in his stomach. Other times, it is Evan’s son lying on the ground, his eyes open, looking at me while vultures feast on him. Some days, I see Asher running towards me but he is caught and killed by Ramsey, the same way he killed Henry, and I wake up in my bed soaked with sweat, like someone emptied a bucket of water while I was sleeping.The only good thing that happens during these three days is that Ramsey doesn’t try to share the room with me. A part of me is glad but the other part of me is worried about what he must be up to next. There’s no way he’d listen to me and give me space.Five days later, I look worse than I have ever and I’ve stopped coming out of my room. I don’t hear from either Ares or Kylan and that make
Return of the Rejected Luna Chapter 117: “…it feels too much for me.”
“Where? Where is he?” Kylan hands me a note. I take it from him and stare at it. “Alexa, you should read that.” I nod. “Come in.” I shut the door behind him and open the folded paper he gave me. I recognize Sue’s delicate handwriting.“How are you doing Alexa? I hope you are holding on? I just received word from Valor that he has found your mate. As I write this, they are on their way back to here. Valor didn’t say much but Asher is fine, he’s okay so you can stop worrying about him. As for Liana, there’s been no new news on our end but we won’t stop looking. I know we are close and we’ll soon find her. I wish you strength always. Love, Sue.”After reading the note, a sigh of relief pushes past my lips and I feel my mood lift. Asher was okay, he was still alive. “Now what, Alexa?” Kylan asks. “Honestly? I don’t know. We are sitting ducks without Liana’s testimony. The other packs won’t be willing to help us without Liana saying anything. She’s the most important part of our plan.” “Ho
