All Chapters of Surrogate For Alpha Zane: I Am His Rejected Luna : Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

Rion's POVI had a plan. And none of this was part of it.This terror, the blazing heat and suffocating air, the fiery hell all around us; it wasn't a fucking part of it! But then again, nothing ever goes as planned. I should know.The mahogany door stared me in the face like an uncharacteristically bad joke. I turned to Erik, knowing just what we had to do.“On three, Erik!” I shouted over the roaring flames.Erik nodded, his face set with determination despite the blistering heat. The smoke was thick and suffocating, clawing at our throats and stinging our eyes. Carol's silent cries and Larose's soothing whispers, Mildred's panicked fidgeting mixed with the crackling of burning wood, creating a symphony of chaos.“One, two, three!” We lunged at the door, our shoulders slamming into the solid mahogany with all our might. The impact sent shockwaves of pain through my body causing my bones to ache and groan to escape my throat, but the door remained stubbornly intact.Again. And again w

Jaselyn's POV My heart clenches painfully at her words. How could anyone say such a thing to a child? It's absolutely unfathomable.I swallow hard, determined to handle this delicately. "Your daddy was very wrong to say that, Carol. You are not a burden. Your mummy loves you very much, and so do all of us. We’re so happy you’re here with us."But Carol's sad, questioning eyes stay fixed on me, and I know this conversation is far from over. As I sit there, holding her tiny hand in mine, I can’t shake the anger and sadness welling up inside me. Who the hell says something that insidious to a child?!Nathan's cruelty has left deep scars on this innocent child, and it will take a lot of love and patience to help her heal. But I am determined to be there for her, no matter what.“Carol, sweetie, would you like to go on a little adventure with me today?” I sign, smiling softly to try and lighten the mood. “I have a surprise for you.”Carol hesitates, her small fingers fidgeting as she sig

Jaselyn’s POVI sigh softly as I finish my nightly skincare routine, feeling the cool, soothing sensation of the moisturizer on my face. The routine is a small comfort, a moment of normalcy amidst the swirling emotions and events of the day. I take a deep breath, feeling a sense of satisfaction and calm wash over me. Carol had a wonderful day, and it feels like we’re making real progress in helping her heal. It makes me so happy.As I move to the bed, I hear the bathroom door open and look up to see Rion stepping out, a towel wrapped around his waist. His hair is damp, falling over his face messily. Droplets of water cling to his muscular frame, a particularly asinine drop rolls down from his neck, over his chest, abs and finally down his abdomen, between the V-shape of his nether region, his assets thankfully covered by the towel. The sight sends a shiver down my spine, and I quickly trace my eyes back up to his chest. Choosing instead to focu

Jaselyn's POVI ended up crying myself to sleep.When I woke up, it was morning. The harsh sun rays washed over my face from the open window and I had to block some of it with my hand. I blinked repeatedly in an attempt to clear my vision and I realized that I was alone in our bedroom, the memories of last night— Him calling her name during his climax, our argument, his hurtful words— They all came flooding back and I felt my heart squeeze in my chest.I took several deep breaths just so I wouldn't start crying. I sat up and realized that a blanket was covering me. I clearly recall sleeping without one last night, could this have been his doing? A small shrivel of hope starts to light up in my heart. Perhaps he didn't mean the things he said, it was probably just a misunderstanding. We have a strong relationship, there's no way he's just been using me to replace her this whole time.I assure myself of this as I stand up from the b

Jaselyn's POV 3 days have passed since Rion left me with nothing but a note after his blunt rejection. Three agonizing days.He hasn't called, he hasn't texted, not even a zing through our bond.Every time I was tempted to call him, Larose was there to talk some sense into me. She reminded me that if he needed space, then calling him would have the opposite effect. She thinks it's foolish to chase after a man, especially when he doesn't hold a shred of consideration for me.She's been in a similar situation so I know she's advising me from experience.In these last three days, I've thrown myself into activities with Carol. I'm like her second mother now and she's grown pretty attached. I honestly need the affection, as selfish as it may be.Our routine is pretty simple. I take Carol to play with the children at the orphanage, we do some gardening, help with anything the maids will let us do, which isn't very much (only Jinu lets us han
