All Chapters of The Rejected Luna : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

“we could lose our minds in the city of roses.”Daisy’s POVI understand why Alaric is just a flamboyant soul.“Wow, just take a long at that,” Priya muttered, her eyes wide in surprise.We had made it to Alaric’s clan, much to Astrid’s dismay. She had tried to persuade Hades from permitting me to join the royal entourage.“Daisy,” Hazel called, walking towards me in her royal attire.Hazel had skipped the royal protocol of greeting the king and his lady. She had only acknowledged Hades before marching over to my side and pulling me into a much needed hug.It was hard to all Ignore how annoyed Astrid was, no one had really paid her any mind.“come on ladies, we should have a few things to entertain ourselves with before Alaric becomes a tyrant.” Hazel said.“Astrid, I am sure you must be tired after such a long journey, the maids are available to show you and your ladies to your quarters,” Hazel said to Astrid.Astrid nodded timidly, an action I was almost certain I had imagined. Astr

“my parting gift is the headache that just won’t go.”Daisy’s POV“If you could please, keep your voices down,” I groaned.Their insistent bickering sounded like my room was filled with chirping crickets. I used my hand to press down on my head, hoping to soothe the pain.I hissed, closing my eyes again as the brightness in the room almost blinded my eyes.“Why is it so bright?” I moaned, placing a pillow over my head.“Because it’s past midday,” Brittany said, pushing the pillow off of my face.I slowly opened my eyes, pausing at each step for my eyes to adjust to the brightness.“What happened last night?” I asked, frowning at the bitter taste in my mouth.Priya grinned, “what didn’t happen,” she teased, pushing a cup into my hands.“it looks horrible and it tastes the same but it works fast, plus Hazel added a few magical herbs,” she said.I eyes the drink cautiously, if this would stop the insistent pounding in my head, then I have no other choice than to gulp it down.Brittany ha

“You have remained my power, my pleasure and my pain.”Daisy’s POVI should probably have the title of the worst friend ever.My days were mostly occupied with Priya and Brittany, and my nights solely reserved for my time with Hades.I had introduced a few black roses Hazel had given to me from her garden. Hades still had a haunted look on his face but he appreciated the effort and sometimes pitched in to help.I could say our relationship has shifted to something better. Hades was no longer ignoring me and we had began to do a few things like couples should, or at least I think that’s what they do.I couldn’t hide my excitement when I found out that Lyra would be returning to our pack. It only meant I had less people to worry about hurting me.A smile formed on my face as I took sight of Xavier, tending to a horse the stables. And I was flowed with guilt, the last time I had seen him was the night of the festival and I may have been unintentionally avoiding him.“Xavier,” I called, a

“Could your touch erase the fear?”Daisy’s POVHades was magnificent.But that alone couldn’t stop me from biting my nails in worry as each claws were drawn, trying to slash his chest.“He’s going to be fine, he has been fighting in this for as long as I can remember,” Priya said, trying to quell my worry.The crowd roared, and I jumped to my feet, Hades had yet again defeated another warrior.His eyes scanned around the crowd like he was searching for something, and my breath hitched when our eyes met.“for you,” Hades mouthed, winking at me.The exchange was quick, the crowd had barely noticed as they were focused on the fact that Hades had once again shown his unmatched vigor on the battle ground.Priya squealed beside me, “you guys are the cutest,” she clapped.I laughed, “stop it,” I mumbled, feeling my cheeks reddened.“I am going to find Alaric, and I am sure you would want…” Priya left the word hanging in the air.“I’ll come find you later,” I said, rushing through the crowd t

“We couldn’t see the facts through our fury.”Daisy’s POV“Hades,”I called out in the darkness, a broken sob broke out of me.“Hey,” Xavier said calmly, his hands rubbing my back soothingly as I continued to cry.“He, he,” I tried to say, my chest constricting as I tried to speak.“Shh,” Xavier shushed me.I was far from being consolable, my world had crumpled right before my eyes and there was nothing I could do to change it.“Drink this, it will help,” Xavier said, placing a warm cup in my hand.I took small sips, feeling the liquid trickle warmly down my throat, filling my body with a warm feeling.“It is only going to help you sleep, I come in and check on you later,” Xavier said, kissing my forehead.I closed my eyes sinking into the dreamless slumber. The darkness calmed my mind as I sank deeper into the void.It might have been thirty minutes or an hour that I slept, but I couldn’t tell, my body felt relaxed and loose, and I couldn’t help but wonder what mixture Xavier had giv
