The return of the rejected Luna : Chasing her back chapter 74
Lia's pov.I was in shock, and couldn't tell what was happening. My hands were shaking, and I was still tied to whatever I was on.My chest drummed loudly, and I was just trying to be myself. I didn't really know what else I wanted.I couldn't believe Johnny just shot someone who was supposed to be his cousin.I was still gasping for breath when I heard his voice again.“Where is she?” He screamed,and there was no one saying anything. It seemed like everyone had gone quiet about it.“Say something or else I'm going to blow off another part of your body!” Johnny said.“Really?” He said, and there was nothing else to be said. It was only a matter of time before I heard another bullet go off again. This time, I was really shocked about it.I clenched tightly to myself, and tried to make myself feel free with everything that was already happening.“Mmm! Mmm!” I screamed. There were a lot of things that remained in my mind as I thought. It seemed as though things weren't really going well.

Johnny's pov“Yes. Don't ask me why. We both know the danger of you always being this way. I mean, there are so many things that we have to consider here.”She shook her head. “You can't make me feel this way. I mean, it was just once.”“It wasn't just once. You've always been in danger, and I don't think it's fair. I always get scared for you. I mean, there are so many things you're going through, you wouldn't be able to bear it all.”“Really?” she asked with raised brows, and there was silence. I sighed, knowing fully well she wouldn't want to leave her job. Besides, she wanted to feel independent.“I don't think now is the best time for this topic, so I'm going to ask you for something. I'm going to ask you to give me time to think of a solution to your job, and when that happens, you'll have no choice but to quit.”“You're worrying too much. I know that there are a lot of things you need to consider before saying this. You're trying to control my life. Danger is unavoidable, and

Kira's povI watched how he struggled with the knife on his tummy. My eyes turned dark, and I had a smirk on my lips. There was this satisfaction I got from him suffering.“Why did you do this to me?” He asked with raised brows, and worry followed. I noticed he tried to mutter some words.“What's that?” I asked, with an evil laugh following.“You should understand that I don't have time to joke with all of these things. You think you can just keep threatening? I told you I'm not someone to be messed with, but you didn't seem to be understanding that.”I paused, eyeing him. “You should never have underestimated me!” My smirk instantly faded, revealing my dark nature.“You were just too demanding, and always threatening. I loved you as my side , but you never listened. You think I have time for that kind of nonsense?!” I flared up, and noticed how he instantly calmed, making me heave a sigh of relief.“It's fine. You don't need to worry, things are going to be alright, I'm very sure abo

Lia's povI was waiting for his return, and my heart couldn't stop drumming. The idea he gave was a good idea, and I wanted to get started as soon as possible.He even promised to throw in some free business tips, which was interesting.“What do you want to do now?” I asked with raised brows, and I sighed. The reason I sighed was because I was also left with the burden of finding a business to do, but there didn't seem to be anyone calling out to me at the moment.“How about a financial cooperative?” I thought, and just then, my head turned towards the door with creased lines on my face.“Come in,” said once. It took a while, and it was Johnny who opened the door. He seemed calm and had a smile on his face.“Someone seems puzzled. What's up?” He said in a friendly tone, coming to take a seat close to me.“Yeah, I am,” I expressed with a smile, and it warmed his heart because he smiled as well.“You're troubled and you still manage to smile. How do you even do that?” he asked with worr

Kira's povI returned home feeling extremely tired. It was as though my body was on fire. I tried to rest by going to the bathroom to take a shower before lying down.It was one hell of a day, but my mission was finally completed which made me glad.“What exactly couldn't I do?” I thought about it as I lay down on the bed after the cold shower. However, as soon as I was able to lie down, there was a knock on my door.I immediately squeezed my face with creased lines on it. As I wondered who was there. My hands were fisted, and I was trying so hard for me to not get angry because I was so tired.“Who's it?” I asked, and she came closer. There was no doubt that it was harder than I thought. I was just trying to get some rest.“It's me. I came to see how you're doing,” she explained, and there was no doubt that I frowned.Not wanting to have her come back later, I sounded for her to come in.“Come in…” I said with raised brows. I was worried that things were going to be more difficult if

Levi's povI was stunned to hear about whatever happened. It seemed like things weren't going the way I thought.How was I going to break the news to Kira now? The thought continued to play on my mind and even made me more worried than ever.I was trying my best not to cast this news to Kira, but I guess had to.I stood up from where I was seated and moved towards her room with a pondering expression. I just wished there was a way to make things not happen this way, but it seemed like life was too short.Upon getting there, I knocked on the door and pushed the door open to receive a welcoming smile from her.“How do I stop this hope? How does this shattering dream end?” I was so confused about the way the whole thing turned out to be.“Um, you don't seem to have the right expression on. What's the matter?” Her words reached my ears, and I became calculative, closing the door behind me as I tried to understand the whole process.“Levi!” She called when she noticed how absent-minded I h

Levi's pov.I was shocked when I heard her words. Did she just say there was something we needed to talk about? If yes, what was it, and why was it a pressing issue?“I know you don't want to see my face, but then I need to tell you about the discovery I made a few days ago. I wanted to keep this away from you, but when I heard about the news of Doctor David's death, I figured it was right to tell you this.”Creased lines appeared on my forehead, and there was a bit of doubt in my mind, but since I was alone and it was about my household, I needed to give her a listening ear.“Fine, what do you want to tell me?” I explained, and there was silence.She kept quiet for a few seconds and then drew in a deep breath as though she didn't know what to say to me.“How much do you trust me, alpha?” She asked, and I felt my hands shaking. Why was she making such kinds of comments? Was she about to say something really scary, or was it something else?“There's no time for all these kinds of thing

LIAI stared at Ella, my mind reeling with questions, my heart heavy with sorrow. She didn't seem to notice, her expression unreadable. "Ella, please," I whispered, my voice cracking. "Tell me what's going on. Why are you here?" She didn't respond, didn't even flinch almost like she didn't know who I was and this was her first time seeing me. It was as if she was a statue, a mere shell of the person I once knew. I felt a chill run down my spine. What had they done to her? Had they brainwashed her, manipulated her into betraying me? The thought sent a wave of nausea washing over me. I struggled against the restraints, desperate to break free, to escape this nightmare. But they held firm, biting into my skin like cold metal teeth. Ella's gaze flickered to the children, and for a moment, I hoped to see a glimmer of recognition, of compassion but I saw nothing but blankness. But it was quickly extinguished, replaced by a mask of indifference. "They're fine," she said, her voice flat,

LIAA shiver ran down my spine, fear gripping me. This wasn't the Johnny I thought I knew. This was a stranger, a cold, calculating predator. The mask had finally fallen away, revealing the monster beneath. I stared at him, my mind reeling, trying to reconcile the charming, friendly man I had known with the ruthless manipulator standing before me. The realization was devastating, a crushing weight that threatened to suffocate me. I had been so blind and so naive. And now, I was paying the price.I sat there, frozen in shock, as Johnny's words hung in the air like a challenge. I parted my lips to speak but the words stuck in my throat. Johnny's gaze never wavered, his eyes boring into mine with an unsettling intensity. He seemed to be savoring my shock, my horror, and my surprise. The silence between us grew thicker, heavier, until it became almost palpable. I felt like I was drowning in it, suffocating under the weight of his betrayal. Finally, Johnny broke the silence, his voice l

LIAAs Johnny stepped further into the room, the dim light danced across his features, revealing an expression I couldn't quite decipher. "Lia," he said softly, his voice low and gentle. "I'm so sorry. I never meant for things to go this far."My mind reeled as I tried to process his words. What did he mean? What did he have to do with this?"Where's Kira?" I demanded, trying to keep my voice steady. "What's going on, Johnny?"Johnny's gaze drifted to the children, and for a moment, I thought I saw a flicker of genuine concern. But it was quickly replaced by a mask of indifference."Kira's...not here right now," he said vaguely. "As for what's going on...let's just say you're in a bit of a situation."A bit of a situation? That was an understatement. I was tied to a chair, my children were being held captive, and I had no idea what these people wanted."Johnny, please," I begged, trying to appeal to whatever humanity was left in him. "Tell me what's going on. What do you want?"Johnn

LIAThe sun felt warm on my skin, a welcome change from the cool, sterile air of the mansion. It had been… too long. Too long since I’d felt the sun without a filter of tinted glass, too long since I’d heard the unadulterated sounds of children laughing, not just the echo of my own kids playing indoors. Levi had been right. He’d been so insistent."Lia,”he’d said, his voice firm but gentle, “I’m handling the paparazzi. You don’t have to live like this. They won’t bother you.” And for the first time in months, I’d believed him.So, when they had begged, their eyes wide and pleading, “Mommy, park? Please, park!” I hadn’t hesitated. I’d scooped them up, their giggles filling the sudden void in my heart, and we’d driven to the park.Watching them now, one of them climbing the jungle gym with surprising agility, and the other swinging so high I thought she might touch the clouds, a genuine smile stretched across my face. This… this was living. This was what I’d been missing.I wandered ov

LIAThe adrenaline was still pumping as I hurried, my hands shaking as I packed. The image of Johnny's betrayal kept flashing through my mind, making it hard to focus. I gathered the children's things, trying to keep my composure for their sake. They were still scared, clinging to me like frightened little birds. I managed a reassuring smile, though my heart was breaking inside.Levi helped me carry everything downstairs, his presence a source of comfort amidst the chaos. He loaded the bags into the car quickly and efficiently. We piled in, the children still subdued, their eyes wide with a mixture of fear and confusion. The drive to the stone mansion was a blur. I barely registered the passing scenery, my mind still reeling.When we arrived, I was awestruck. The mansion was magnificent, imposing yet welcoming. It looked like something out of a fairytale. My children tugged on my dress, their eyes sparkling. "Mommy, is this where we're going to stay?" Nora whispered, his voice fill

LIAThe click of the lock echoed too loudly in the sudden quiet. I peeked out, heart hammering against my ribs. He stood there, just him, thank goodness. My breath hitched. "What are you doing here?" I whispered, my eyes darting nervously around the street, half-expecting a swarm of cameras to materialize from the shadows. The paparazzi… they’d been relentless earlier, hounding me and the kids. The memory made my stomach churn. The paparazzi had followed him to the children's school and at a moment, I felt like yelling in frustration.I could barely step outside because of the fear of not having paparazzi chasing me with cameras and harassing me, asking him scandalous questions that I never thought would be made public and now that it was everywhere, she was scared for her children. He was alone, though. Just him. Relief washed over me, quickly followed by a wave of apprehension. I frowned at him, trying to decipher the worry etched on his face. It was there, plain as day, in th

LEVII slumped back in my chair, feeling like I'd been defeated. The board members' words cut deep, and I couldn't blame them for their disappointment. I was disappointed in myself too.I thought about Lia and our children, and how they were suffering because of my mistakes. I felt a wave of guilt wash over me, and I knew I had to do something to make it right.But what? I had no idea how to fix this mess. I'd never been in a situation like this before, and I felt like I was in way over my head.The board members continued to talk, discussing possible solutions and strategies, but I barely heard them. My mind was elsewhere, consumed by thoughts of Lia and our children, and how I was going to protect them.I knew I had to come up with a plan, and fast. But for now, I just sat there, feeling defeated and unsure of what to do next.As the meeting drew to a close, I knew I had to say something. I took a deep breath and stood up, trying to sound confident."I understand your concerns, and

LEVII took a deep breath, trying to gather my thoughts and calm my trembling heart. I couldn't believe this was happening right now. Just yesterday, everything was fine, and now my whole world was turned upside down before me. "I...I don't know what to say," I stammered, trying to find the right words even though my heart was pounding in my chest. "I just found out about this today, and I'm still trying to process it all as we speak." This felt like a nightmare that I should've avoided. Now Lia and the children were paying for my mistakes. I gulped, frustration crawled its way to my skin and my throat tightened as the desperation to see Lia became overwhelming. I could swear that I could feel my skin breaking with cold sweats.The room fell silent again, and I could feel the weight of their expectations on me as they kept their gaze locked on me. I knew I had to say something, anything, to reassure them that I was still in control even though they felt like a lie now. I couldn't bl
