The Rejected Luna   Chapter Fifty.
Auroraâs POVâWhew!â I breathed out in relief. Michaelâs presence around me had been stifling, to say the least. Slamming the door on him had been oddly satisfying. Had I been too rude? Yes, but it wasnât like he didnât deserve it. I was tired of his ever-changing demeanor, it was so difficult to determine when he was being genuine. I wasnât even sure if I wanted him to be genuine anymore. I had truly accepted that we could never be together regardless of our history as mates. Now, I couldnât wait for this event to be over so that Michael would leave. I just hoped he wouldnât cause any trouble for me before he left. I lay on my bed thinking about the summit that would take place tomorrow. I was still a little nervous about having to meet other Alphas. I had not been able to shake off the feeling of not belonging yet. I had a severe case of imposter syndrome. âI could really use a dose of Vitamin Jasmine right nowâ I thought as I picked up my phone to call her. I was very disappoin

Klaus was starting to get antsy. He had noticed Aurora walking out of the hall almost an hour ago, but he hadnât seen her ever since. She had looked tired before leaving and he had half a mind to follow her then but he had been cornered by an Alpha wanting to speak with him about some business deal. He noted that Auroraâs father was still at the party though. Maybe Aurora had retired to bed early, she didnât seem like the type to enjoy partying anyway. Yet, he couldnât shake the feeling that something was not quite right. Or maybe he was just being paranoid, he was still new to the mate stuff after all. He took a quick survey of the hall and grimaced when he realized that Michael, Aurora's ex-mate, was nowhere to be found either. He took a final sip of his drink before mindlinking Ian to take over in his stead. When he stepped out of the hall, he paused to sniff the air. There were lingering traces of Auroraâs scent all around him but it wasnât strong enough for him to pinpoint her

Auroraâs POVI opened my eyes with enormous effort. Everything around me was fuzzy and I couldnât even understand what was going on or where I was. It took several minutes before I realized that I was in a car. A moving car. So far, I could only move my eyes slightly, the rest of my body was dead weight. I couldnât even turn my neck to see who else was in the car with me or where I was going. I couldnât recall getting into a car. The last thing I remember was being at the summit. Then I went to the balcony. Yes, I remember stepping out for fresh air. And after that? I remembered talking âĶ I had been talking to someone. But who? Dammit! Why couldnât I remember who I had been talking to?The memory was right there but just out of reach. Each time, I was close to remembering, my brain just blacked out. âAnd what had happened after that?â I tried again but stillâĶ nothing! I wanted to groan in frustration, but just like the rest of my body, I was unable to move my mouth. âA-aurora?â The

Auroraâs POVWhen I opened my eyes again, I was back in the Blood Moon Pack. Laying down on the bed in Klausâs room to be precise. The room was dimly lit but I could make my way around easily. I remembered how I had been paralyzed previously and I immediately sat up to test my strength. I was back to normal! Okay, good. Now let me try getting up. I got off the bed with surprising ease. Thank goodness! I never wanted to feel paralyzed ever again. It was like being trapped inside a room and only being able to watch the world through a small window. âEasy there, tigerâ I heard Klaus say from somewhere in the room. I had been so concerned with my mobility that I didnât even realize he was in the room with me. âUm hi,â I said. In the next instant, Klaus was standing right next to me. âAurora.â He said cupping my face towards him. âAre you ok?â He asked. âYeah, Iâm fine now. Thanks so much for coming right when you didâ I blurted out. âYou can move around already? Hmm,â He said thought

Auroraâs POV:Desire exploded in my brain as our lips met in what I would describe as perfect harmony. I welcomed the warm sensations that spread through my body as his tongue invaded my mouth, exploring every inch of it. My lips parted even more, giving him full access. If it hadnât been for his hands holding me, I was sure I would have collapsed because my legs felt like they were made of jelly. With every second that passed, I could feel my senses evaporating until the only thing left of my emotions was need. I needed more. I needed Klaus to continue kissing me and never stop. The feel of his lips against mine was befuddling, and I could only think about how right it felt. I let out a muffled moan as one hand grabbed my right breast and fondled it gently. His thumb rubbed around my nipple in gentle circles, sending small waves of ecstasy through my skin. I nearly cried out in protest when his mouth slowly tore away from mine. Whereas I was a panting mess, greedily gasping for air

Auroraâs POVI woke up with a lazy smile. It must have been around midday when I woke up because the sun was shining very brightly through the windows. I stretched my limbs while thinking about how I hadnât had such good sleep in a while. Looking around, I realized that this wasnât my room and I gasped when memories of the night before came crashing through my brain. Thankfully, I was alone in the room as I relieved the most erotic night of my life. Goodness! Had I really let Klaus do all those things to me? And to think that I had been screaming for the most part. Oh no! I hadnât stopped to think about how high my screams were, everyone in this castle must have heard my moans. In fact, I hadnât been thinking at all last night. It was like I had transformed into some type of junkie whose addiction was a certain egoistic Alpha. A blush crept through my cheeks as I thought about how willing I had been last night. I practically had begged for him to sleep with me. âAnd he refusedâ I re

Auroraâs POVâOh sorryâ I apologized immediately. âItâs fine,â Savannah says but her tone makes it seem like itâs anything but fine. She gives me a once-over and scrunches her nose. âYeah,â I say. This was awkward. I started to walk away when Savannah called me back. âAurora?â She looks like sheâs debating whether or not to speak. âYeah?ââIâm only saying this because you seem like a nice lady but whatever you think is going on between you and the Alpha, itâs not going to last.â Savannah finally said.âIâm not sure what you meanâĶâ I trailed offâAll Iâm saying is that you seem like the kind of girl who is looking for forever, true love kind of stuff. But Klaus is just not the type of man to settle downâ She takes my shoulders in her hands, rubbing them softly. âI donât want you to get your hopes up because youâve been in his bed and all.ââOhhhâĶâ What exactly was I supposed to say to her advice?âIâm sure you are a smart girl though,â Savannah said as she squeezed my shoulders gen

Klaus fumed as he tackled pending paperwork littered on his desk. He could hardly focus on the task at hand as his mind kept drifting back to Aurora and the argument they had. He had half a mind to walk back to her room and tell her that he would never let her leave him willingly. However, he could not go back on his word. He had told her that he would let her leave in the spur of the moment and had regretted it immediately. It would be a total disaster if she decided to take him up on his offer. The mate bond might not be fully developed between them, but he was sure he would not survive being separated from her for a long time. Curse his temper, he should have controlled himself better with her. How could he have told her to leave when there was the threat of her ex? There was no way he could let her leave. Not on her own anyway. He became aware of a femaleâs scent invading his surroundings just as a series of short knocks sounded on the door. His aunt, Danielle, waltzed in with

The Rejected Luna   Bonus Chapter.
Unknown POV: (3 years later) Klaus and Aurora sat by the veranda, looking out at the field while young children played around, young children about their childrenâs age. Aurora was happy and her heart felt fullâĶ but somehow, somewhere deep inside her heart, she felt uneasy. She didnât know what was wrong but she did know that she was uncomfortable. Her eyes wandered to where her children sat and seeing how they were still so engrossed with their toys, she smiled. âMaybe, Iâm just so paranoid.â She mused, causing Klaus to turn to her. He asked her what she had said and after telling him about her thoughts, he let out a breath and muttered; âitâs been several years now, love. Weâre fine now. Everyone is happy nowâĶ stop overthinking these things. The children, the pack is safe.â âBut the children are too strong.â Aurora cried, ââĶit would take just one glance at them for an outsider to know that theyâre different. They donât even act like their mates!â âAnd how do you expect
The Rejected Luna   Epilogue.
Auroraâs POV:The glasses clinked as Klaus and I made a toast and while everyone sipped from our glasses, we didnât. We only took the first sip after the toast and then poured most of the remaining contents of our drinks on the paper in the bin. It was our Prenuptial agreement. The stupid arrangement that Klaus had come up with when we first met. A smile tugged at my lips as I remembered those times and in awe of how much weâve grown since then, I leaned into him for a hug.âThank you,â I whispered, kissing his chest, uncaring if my red lipstick would stain his crisp white shirt. He didnât seem to bother too as he also leaned closer, placed a kiss on my forehead, and whispered;âNo, thank you, my love.âI blushed.It was the fiercest blush I have had in a while and everyone who noticed this began to laugh excitedly. At this moment, I looked around us, at my parents who were cheering and clapping at Bella while she made funny faces at David and Davina, at Jasmine who had tears stream
The Rejected Luna   Chapter One Hundred and Thirty three.
Auroraâs POV:I watched in curiosity as the flames lit up the evening sky, causing tons of smoke to fill the atmosphere in an almost suffocating manner. There were agonized screams coming from everywhere, but it was one from agony not from pain. Agony because a source of their livelihood was burning down, agony because a lot of money was being burnt to a crisp. Nobody was in pain, no. Klaus and I made sure no one would get hurt.While everyone had a piece of cloth or paper covering the lower parts of their face to block their nostrils from the angry fumes, I didnât. I took it all in, giggling and happy.Klaus was standing beside me and he seemed just as pleased as I was. The only difference was that he wasnât showing his emotions on his face. He still appeared stoic and nonchalant.One of Klausâ soldiers held a limp Michael by his collar while he was made to watch his lifelong sweat go down the drain. He was quiet all through but his emotions were as bright as day. Tears streaked his

Auroraâs POV:My breath hitched in my throat as I watched Damon saunter into the room, brandishing a large gun on his shoulders. I saw more than a few Elders shrink away in fear and I almost barked out a laugh from how stupid they appeared doing that.However, I was quickly snapped to the present when I felt something cold against my skin and I frowned when I saw that it was the gun and that Damon was pressing it against my head.âAnd what is happening here?â He asked no one in particular, but his gaze was planted firmly on Klausâ face.Without thinking, I pushed the gun away and got up, standing between Klaus and Damon. âWhat are you doing here?â I asked him instead, evading his question.I saw Damonâs eyes widen but I wasnât sure if it was because he noticed that I wasnât scared of him even with a gun or because of something else entirely. Choosing that opportunity, I stepped closer to him until we were almost standing chest to chest and whispered;âLeaveâĶ nothing here is any of you

The chatter in the room died down as soon he stepped in with his mate stalking behind him. Normally, anyone who saw them would think she was hiding behind him but that was unlike the case here.She was protecting him. She was his aide, his bodyguard, and his Luna.People knew them. Word had gotten out. She was the last of her kind. The only white wolf left in their entire world and people feared her for that. The elders who once wanted Klaus out of the throne because he wasnât âfitâ now thought otherwise. With a Luna like her, you would always be fit.âKing Klaus!â An old man with a boisterous voice called out. His voice rang around the room and when Aurora turned to regard him, he shrunk into his chair.Aurora always wanted to be respected, not feared. These days after a lot of people came to know what she was, she noticed that many now feared her. Those who respected her before feared and respected her now, and those who never respected her only feared her now.Right now, ignoring t
The Rejected Luna   Chapter One Hundred and Thirty.
Klausâ POV: I watched her, my mate, with fascination as she wiped the sweat off her face with the back of her hand and stepped away from the now limp form of a beat-up Alpha; and I couldnât help but feel more proud of her than I already was. I loved how sheâd gotten every information she wanted out of Michael without laying a finger on himâĶ but considering the amount of damage sheâd done to him, I wasnât sure I could still classify her methods of torture as not laying a finger on him. She smiled at me when she came up to me, a smile that was so bright no one could imagine what she had been doing for the past hour. She handed her phone to me and I smiled when I noticed that it was still recording, even until now. Quietly, I shut it off and pulled her into a hug. âThank youâĶâ I whispered but she shook her head immediately. âWhatâ?â âNo, thank you,â She whispered lovingly, ââĶfor acknowledging that this is my fight and not trying to get into it. At first, I didnât know what to
The Rejected Luna   Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Nine.
Auroraâs POV: I stood in a corner of the dark room with amusement gleaming in my eyes while Emily glared daggers at me. By the other end, just opposite Emily was Michael who was still fast asleep as a result of the effect of the drug I had knocked him out with. Klausâ guards had chained him to the metal chair and left him to my mercyâĶ or so I thought until I smelled him, Klaus. I didnât even turn around to acknowledge him. I didnât even flinch. âWhatâre you doing here?â I murmured under my breath, but loud enough that he could hear me. He threw a glance at me. There was a hint of mischief in his eyes when he simply said; âI am here to watch you work.â Deep down, even though I tried to believe him, I knew that he was lying. I could feel it deep inside our mate bond. My heart clenched in my chest when I realized that he was here because he didnât trust me not to hurt them so much, or perhaps even kill them but I didnât say a word as regards that. I simply blinked back the tears
The Rejected Luna   Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Eight.
Auroraâs POV:I stepped into the dimly lit restaurant with a sultry smile gracing my lips. Even before I stepped in, I already knew where Michael was seated so I immediately made my way to him, almost basking in delight when his eyes widened as soon as he took in my appearance.âQueen superiorâĶâ he let out almost breathlessly. His eyes settled just on my exposed cleavage for a few seconds before he begrudgingly pulled them to my face.ââĶI thought I was supposed to meet with King Klaus today.â He pointed out, eyeing me skeptically.I shrugged; âwell, hello to you too, Michael. I am doing fine and you?!â I sassed, eliciting a breathy chuckle from him.âOh, Iâm so sorry, Aurora, I was so stunned by your beauty that I momentarily forgot my manners.â He quickly responded.If that was his silly excuse for flattery then he had a lot more to learn. Refusing to show how unimpressed I was by him, I smiled, briefly exposing my pearly whites. âYou flatter me!âResting against the table, I leaned

Auroraâs POV:I was in the middle of outlining my lips with my new Charlotte Tilbury red lipstick when Klaus stepped into the room. I noticed how his eyes sexily roamed my body before landing on my eyes.âYou look stunning,â he let out, his voice no more than a breathy moan escaping his lips. I smiled my toothy smile at him and turned to take a quick glance at my reflection in the mirror.âThank you, love,â I murmured back.I was clad in a little red dress, and when I say little, I mean that it did little to cover my curves. It was a long dress alright but had a very high slit by the left side, one that almost reached my waist. The neckline was low and droopy, exposing more cleavage than I would have liked but that didnât deter me. In fact, it made me feel like I could pull this off.My silver hair was in a tight ponytail but after noticing how serious it made me look, I released it, letting it drop and then I stepped away from the mirror.Klaus was already behind me when I spun away
