All Chapters of HIS REPUDIATED LUNA: Rejected Once, Wanted Again: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Valerie's POV..The first thing I did when I got into my room was to get rid of the clothes I wore today. They stuck to my body, a symbol of how hard and stressful the day had been. The cool night breeze whispered across my skin, leaving goose pimples as I walked to the bathroom. I sat on the edge of the bathtub as I waited for it to get filled with warm water. I added some mint and lavender oil and the soap I needed to form the bubbles. The fragrance of the oils mixed with that of the bubble soap wafted through the room, giving the room a pleasant odor.I sank into the water relishing the feel of it as it engulfed me. I could feel the water working its way through my tightened muscles and joints. The oils I had put in helped me to relax by easing the tension from my mind, as I submerged myself deeper into the water. I loved bubble baths, the bubbles tickled my nose and skin in a playful manner while washing away the sweat and grime of the day. Taking the loofah that was there, I sc

Valerie's POV.. “Analisse, spit it out for God's sake” I said out in frustration. This silence of hers was driving me up the wall. " I just wanted to check in on you, see how you are doing. I didn't see you at dinner and that kind of bothered me”. It wasn't the reply I was expecting but it was funny nonetheless, I couldn't think of one thing that would make her think I wanted to be in the same space with her alone, let alone when it's her and Adam. “I did eat dinner, I just didn't want to eat it with you and Adam. How awkward would it have been sitting down at the table with the two people who failed me and broke my trust to eat dinner. It makes no sense” I said, surprised at her question. Coming here to ask for their help had been hard, there was no way I would be forced to be in their presence any longer than I had to be. The thought of me sitting at the same table with them like some freak show happy family made me want to gouge my eyes out. “I've answered your question, I h

Valerie's POV…As I reentered my room the weight of my guilt felt so heavy, I slid down my door as I groaned out remembering all that just happened in the dining room. My thoughts were fighting against each other, on one hand I thought of my children who had no business being thrown into this entire mess and were out there somewhere scared for their lives and definitely looking for their mom wondering when I was coming to save them. They were innocent and vulnerable and I had planned on keeping them that way but I guess it's a bit too late for that now. Then my mind went to the feelings I had for Adam. They were becoming so hard to ignore and I felt like I was drowning in it. I didn't want to feel like I had to pick between the two because I was definitely going to pick my children. I brought them into this world, I watched them grow and it was my duty to protect them.This attraction was beyond wrong; he was basically a forbidden fruit. It dawned on me why I couldn't tell Kenneth I l

Adam's POV…I took a deep breath before walking around my desk to stand in front of her, that was one thing about Analisse once she had an idea stuck in her head. Getting it out was going to be a problem. I had a lot on my mind, I didn't need to add her paranoia to the list of my worries.“Analisse,” I said her name softly before tilting her head back with my fingers on her chin so she had no choice but to meet my eyes.“I know what you're trying to insinuate and it's not true, I married you because I love you and nobody can come between us. She's nothing more than the mother of my children” I said as I looked intently at her, as the words left my words I knew I was trying to convince myself just as much as I was trying to convince her. Her glare softened at my words, her gaze locked on mine as she closed the space between us, so we were standing toe to toe. “You don't have to be jealous of her, the only thing both of us will ever share are our twins. I don't want you to think that

Adam's POV….After my conversation with Valerie in the kitchen, I was absolutely sure that something was bothering her. She seemed more withdrawn than usual, always looking over her shoulders like she was expecting someone to pop out from around any corner. It had been almost a week since she last came out of her room. I knew this because, after the first day she didn't come for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I made sure the cook was taking food to her room. At first she didn't want to take it with the excuse that she's not hungry but when she saw how relentless the cook was, she knew it was better to just take the food. I didn't like how withdrawn she was because it wasn't who she was. Growing up, Valerie was always the bubbly one in our group, she got excited easily, and got impressed by the simplest of things. It was always a beautiful sight watching how happy the most mundane of things made her.In a few days I would be turning 30, as a child I always thought that by the age of thir
