All Chapters of Rejected Luna: He wants me back : Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

ELIJAHI shake my head. “I remember mom dying. But I didn’t…I can’t do it.” My voice is shaky. Am I doubting myself? Did I really do it? His facial muscles contort in a sharp expression. “You will have to accept your true nature. Your hands are painted with blood. Blood of your mother. You are a killer and the guardian of the Ashwalkers. Accept it!” “No!” I roar, and the earth shakes beneath my feet. Dad looks around. “You sense it?” He asks me, his eyes lit up with amusement as he watches the trees shake. “This is your potential. You have no idea how strong you are. What you are capable of. Accept your destiny and Lord Umbra will bless you with everything you want.” I scoff. “Do you take me for a fool? I see it now. You are spitting all these lies to make me believe I’m something that I’m not. I know what I’m capable of. Killing my mother isn’t one of them.” “Is that what you think?” He looks down at the ground before he sighs. “Then I have no choice. If you don't follow Lord Um

ELIJAH“I don’t get it.” I sigh and explain everything to him through the mind-link. What dad told me about my destiny, the hallucinations, me being a Shadow wolf. His face turns pale and he scowls. “It's all rubbish, man. He’s spewing lies.” I step closer to him and stare at him in the eye. “Is it? Josh, you were there the day we hijacked the castle and I captured Cyrus. You saw what happened. Be honest with me. Doesn't it all make sense?” I ask him and he looks away. Minutes pass and he seems to have trouble giving me an answer. He sensed it too. The day I lost control over Cyrus and Irene had to snap me out of it. The day those Ashwalker wolves walked away just because I growled at them, as if they were obeying me. “This is a fucking mess!” He exhales sharply and runs his hand through his hair. I look ahead and stare at the packhouse. “I know. If what dad said is true, then I am the one Rena needs to stay away from. Even the kids.” My heart clenches so painfully, I find it har

VERENAIrene makes a sound with her mouth before she gulps and answers. “No, because of how we had a lot of wars going on, I decided to focus my time here, training the female warriors and guiding them. The border military has another commander who’s my replacement, and he’s doing his job well. I take reports from him every week and visit the place once in a while to make sure everything is running smoothly.”I nod. “Training the female warriors is crucial. I have the same law in the Moonlight Pack.”“Mhmm. We should spar someday. It’s been a long time since we had a good fight.” She winks, and I grin.“I’m looking forward to it,” I mutter, and realize I have started making coffee for Elijah. When did I begin? I don’t even remember.“Looks like Luna does not need my help to guide her,” Nona gives me a warm smile.Irene smirks and grabs another banana. “Old habits die hard. You still remember where everything is kept.” She rests her arm on the counter, a thoughtful look on her face. “E

VERENA“You’re overthinking it. Becoming his Luna is equivalent to marriage for werewolves. The only thing left is to mark each other. Marriage is for humans,” Serena tells me, and I feel reassured.Yeah, she’s right. We are wolves, so in a way, we’re getting married according to werewolf laws when he makes me the Luna of the Iron Claw Pack. Maybe Elijah wants to do it the traditional way. It's a celebration in itself.---One week later.“Rena!” Maria pops her head through the door, and my eyes widen with excitement at seeing her.“Maria. Come in,” I gesture at her with a wave of my hand.“Rena, I swear if you move again, I’ll make you look like a ghost with this liner,” Irene points at the liner pen she’s holding. I shrug.“I can do it myself,” I pout, but she shakes her head.“Nope, not happening. I have a vision in my head, and you’re not going to ruin it, Missy.” She says in her sassy tone and leans toward me. “Now stay still. Pretend you are a statue.” She shakes the eyeliner pen

VERENAHer tired eyes brighten as she sees me, and she opens her arms to embrace me in a hug. During the week, I visited her in the Mountain Cross pack, and the doctor advised her to stay on bed rest for a few days. I invited her to the ceremony and promised to ensure she’s taken care of throughout the entire party."It's so good to see you again." She cups my face and gives me a warm smile.“You too,” I nod and grin at her. I’m so glad she’s doing fine now.“Hey,” I hear another voice and smile when I see Carlisle walk in. He looks good in his dark gray blazer over a maroon turtleneck sweater. His gaze slides over my appearance. “You look stunning tonight, just as usual,” he compliments me.I feel a strong arm wrap around my waist. Elijah stands beside me, throwing a sharp look toward Carlisle. I hold his hand and give it a light squeeze. He doesn’t need to feel threatened. He’s always going to be the one I love.I turn back to Carlisle. “Thanks for coming.”He smiles. “You invited u
