Return of the Rejected Luna Chapter 61: “What did she mean to you?”
I spend the next few days in a daze, thinking about Asher and the bloody cape. Why did he keep something like that? What did he think about when he saw that box under his bed at night? What were his true feelings for Genevieve? I was tempted to ask him all these questions because thinking about them was driving me crazy. Since I couldn’t handle what was between Asher and me, I decided to focus on the one thing I could handle –Derek and Liana.My note seemed to have stirred some things between the alpha and his luna but I wasn’t satisfied, I wasn’t going to stop until everybody knew them for what they really were. “Did you hear the alpha and the luna arguing last night?” I carefully place the dish I’m washing down and listen to the two omega-maids that just entered the room. “I didn’t but Caroline said she did.” “What exactly is going on between them?” “Caroline says she saw Ally crying in the back of the house last night. Something is definitely up between them.”For the rest of the d

The kiss starts out as a gentle caress of my lips by his, an obvious seduction by Asher. I know I’m being seduced but I don’t have the willpower to push away, I want to be seduced by him. His hands travel from my neck to the small of my back, holding me close to him. Without breaking the kiss, I cradle his face between my hands and deepen the kiss, slipping my tongue into his mouth and duelling with his. Asher groans and tightens his hold on me, squeezing me closer to himself. When it feels like we both can’t breathe, we break the kiss, gulping mouthfuls of air.“Don’t stop.” I whisper. He puts his hands under my thighs and stands, taking me with him from the chair while I wrap my arms around his neck. “Where’s your room?” My room? “There.” Asher carries me to my room and lays me gently on my bed then climbs in after me. I expect him to continue what we started in the living room but he just looks at me, brushing my hair out of my face. “What?” I whisper. “What’s on your mind?” He as

I stare at Asher in shock as he holds my bracelet, openly studying it. “What are you doing?” I ask, hoping the thoughts in my head are wrong. Asher says nothing and continues to study the bracelet in his hands. I grab my shirt and press it to my chest to cover myself and then stand from the bed. I stretch my hand, the hand not holding the shirt to my chest, and say to him, “Give me that back.” When he still doesn’t answer me, I lunge forward, aiming to grab the bracelet out of his hand but he steps back and I miss.“How about I give you a chance to tell me the truth?” Asher finally says, his eyes staring straight into mine. “What is this and why is it important to you?” “It’s just something a friend gave to me. I use it to remember her. Now can you give it back?” Asher takes one step back, then two, then more till his back rests against the door of my room. “I remember these things you know, from back when the war started. The wolves from the Eternal moon pack wore these things, altho

Ida is only able to attack Asher because we caught him unaware and unready, she knows this and is using it fully to her advantage. Ida is able to inflict more wounds to his chest before he is able to push her off and scramble to his feet. I see three deep gashes on his chest and blood pours out like a tap, staining his trousers and leaking onto my floor. The sight of his blood makes Ida giddy and she launches herself at him again. She knocks him down this time but he holds her head when she goes to bite him in the face.Asher holds her head, trying not to get bitten in the face or his neck by her razor sharp teeth. As Ida struggles to break his hold, his eyes go dark and then change into green and grey. One eye glows green and the other glows grey as his wolf makes an appearance. Ida steps back as Asher transforms into his wolf, the raven wolf from the woods. The wolf growls deeply and low then stalks Ida who takes several steps back from him. Then he pounces.I can’t see him coming a

I skip work the next day, asking Hope to make up an excuse about why I wouldn’t be going to work. Hope knows something is up with me but she doesn’t ask, giving me space instead and leaving me till I’m ready to talk about it. I’m really grateful for that. The truth is, I wasn’t going to work because I didn’t want to see Asher, I didn’t know how I was going to react when I saw him and it made me anxious that he was my mate. I still couldn’t believe that had happened to me last night.“Alexa? Wake up!” I groan at Hope’s voice and lift my blanket over my head. “Alexa, don’t make me tickle you.” I gasp and sit up in my bed, shooting a death glare at Hope who is standing beside my bed with a huge smile on her face. “You’re back early.” “No I’m not. It’s almost 7PM.” I frown and look through my curtain to find darkness already painting the sky. “Alexa, did you leave your room at all today?” I shake my head.Hope sighs and sits beside me on the bed. “I don’t know what’s going on with you but

“Hello? Is anybody there? Help me!” I scream but my own words echo back to me. “Please, let me go back home!” I say quietly, looking around my unfamiliar surroundings. I see nothing but trees and darkness, stretching for miles and miles ahead. “Alexa.” I hear someone whisper my name from the darkness. “Who is that? Help me!” “Why?” “What? I don’t understand.” A sudden burst of cold wind has me wrapping my arms around myself to try and stop my shivering.I make my way down the clear path that cuts through the woods, hoping it leads me out of this unsettling place. I can’t help but feel like I’m being watched as I walk down the road, past trees and more trees. It’s all around me and it is all that I can see. “Ida? Ida, please.” I call into the darkness but she doesn’t answer, I can’t feel my wolf with me.My feet stop moving when I spot a figure ahead of me. “Hello?” I call but the figure doesn’t answer, it doesn’t move either. I approach it cautiously then sigh in relief when I see tha

I had spent five days away from the pack, and excluding the day I had the nightmare alongside Sue and Dorothea, I actually had a good time. I felt relaxed. Hope was right, a break was just what I needed. I head to my house and drop off my things there but decide to go to work rather than stay home alone.Stepping into the kitchen, I can sense something strange buzzing in the air, a strange tension spreading with every whisper between omega-maids or passing looks between them. Something had happened, something big.“Oh Alexa, you’re back!” One of the maids, Bea, says when she sees me walk to my post. “How was your break?” “It was okay. Hey, what’s going on? I sensed something strange when I passed by the kitchen earlier.” Bea sighs. “It’s not just in the kitchen, it’s all over the compound.” “What happened?” “Things have been tense between the Alpha and the Luna since the party at the elder’s house. A couple of maids have heard them arguing on different occasions but just a few days ag

For a moment, the hall is silent as all eyes are on Dorothea standing in the doorway of the hall. “Thea!” It is then I notice Ares in the room. He rushes towards his daughter and pulls her into his arms, holding her tight. A soft smile lights up my face at the sight of the father-daughter reunion, it had been so long since they last saw each other. Asher is on his feet, watching the two of them.“Who is this, Ares?” Derek asks. “Forgive me, Alpha. This is my daughter, she’s been missing for almost a year now.” Ares says, his voice shaking with emotion as he wipes his eyes. “Congratulations on finding your missing daughter, General, but you do realize she has interrupted a very important and secret meeting.” Muriel says sounding sour. “Yes, what is your daughter doing here? What exactly does she have to say about the Luna?” Derek asks. All eyes turn to Dorothea. Your move, Dorothea.“Greetings to you Alpha, Luna, Beta, and the elders and important members of the pack. I am Dorothea Mad

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
