Chasing His Rejected Luna 108
JADE Antonio looked like he just walked out of a dream in a tailor-made designer suit, his hair brushed back, with so strand out of place, and a smile showing off his perfect teeth. I got up from the couch, my eyes narrowing as he stepped into my living room. I couldn’t even turn to look around the place and see what the hell is to of place. Because right now, looking between the both of us. He is everything that is in place and I’m the opposite of it. No need to check. “Hi, I’m sorry to barge inline this.” He clears his throat. I couldn’t do anything but stare at him with mu jack slackened. “Ray told me you were in here and I needed to see you.” See me? Why? I didn’t know I said that out loud until he cleared his throat again. And dare i say, he looked nervous? I’m equally surprised. “I’m sure you’ve seen the articles. I just wanted to clear that up.” “Oh,” was al I could mutter. He motioned to the couch and I nodded, quickly moving my bowl of popcorn and the blanket I’d br

ATLASAndrew was staring at me with caution. Like I was some kind of wild animal he didn’t neat to get too close to.It is probably good that he was staying away because he was pissing me off. and I couldn’t guarantee not acting like an untamed beats if became within arm’s reach of me.We were discussing some fucking treaty I wasn’t paying attention to. Those words I read earlier this morning kept repeating themselves in my head like a fucking breaking record. And I couldn’t get them out.If I closed my eyes. I’ll see the image of Jade, smiling up at that fucking pretty boy like he hung the fucking moon.He looked like he spent all his time on a makeup chair rather than doing alpha shit.Or maybe, I just fucking hated the guy. Which was also true.Apparently, breaking my phone did not mean what I saw was’t there. Though I did pray to be hallucinating or for this to be some kind of bad news. None so far. It was fucking real."I think I’ll leave you to it.” Andrew said with a defeated s

LISAI had never considered how hard wearing makeup, dressing up and getting your hair done was.I have been attending social events for the past week and I can tell you one thing right now. It is exhausting as hell. And this is coming from someone who used to train every single day.Tonight, we’re attending an event for one of dad’s business partners and also an alpha. He is art of the council so he is an important figure and I had to make the best impression. I’m cute sure I’ve met him before being the luna and all. But like I said, I never really paid attention to those things then.A lot of people wanted to meet me. Apparently, dad’s pack was like one of the biggest and the most influential. And it was a big deal that I was here. I couldn’t understand why.Last night as we were about leave, he’d asked me to turn the face of my locket. So the blood rhinestone was against my chest and the back was in the front. I couldn’t understood why but I had’t argued.I mean, the whole world pr

ATLASI’ve fully gone back to work and Andrew has taken it upon himself to uncover whatever secret Ford might be hiding.It seemed too strange for him to want to come and clean his daughter. After what, almost twenty five years?He had the resources to find her and he could have if he wanted to. Much sooner than this.I knew how much power he had. I’d felt it. It wasn’t even fucking hard to read about it. So, if he wanted to find his daughter from an affair he hd years ago. He could have.He had the money, the time and the recourses. And it is not like Jade wasn’t registered. Dad made sure she got everything legally done and was put into the system when they moved here. So a simple medical search would have brought up anyone who had his DNA search.Either there really was something odd about his timing. Or I’m reaching so hard and unable to accept the truth.Well, at least I’m honest to accept that the two option could be true.I’m salty and pissed that he is trying to get Jade to be

ATLAS Was trying to pick between heading to look for Brandon or going straight to the party. The look I’ll see on Jade’s face kept prompting me to go with the latter.Brandon will be here whenever I get back. It is not like he has much to do, besides sit and hate me. So, he can wait.I didn’t want to go with Damien, to be completely honest. But he is the one person that knows the location. I guess I just have to swallow my pride and hide my hatred for him.He wanted to get into the driver’s seat but I shook my head.“No way,”“I’m not going to fucking kill you. And I’m the one who knows the way.” He argued but I wasn’t having it.I’m not stupid enough to get into a car with my enemy behind the wheels. He may not look it but Damien is crazy as hell. And he wouldn’t mind crashing the car and almost killing himself, if it means, he would hurt me.He grumbles but steps out of car and moved to get into the passenger seat. I was even more paranoid, seeing how easily he gave in.He was up t

JADEMy attention since I got here has been very sharp. I could feel when someone was looking at me, I paid more attention to people and I could never be caught in an unexpected situation or while making a face. So I was especially very aware of the picture taking pictures of me.There was no way I would have missed when he entered the hall. The fact that he didn’t even bother tying to hide the fact that he was staring at me made it worse.Damn it. The last thing I wanted was more people on my neck about who I was with. It sucked that I couldn’t well scream to the world that I hated all men. That would start a scandal I didn’t want to deal with. I had to force myself to hold that urge down.A lot of people were looking for the littlest things that would make them dig into my life. I’ve seen their comments on social media and it was surprising how entitled people felt to know about my life.Apparently, privacy is a foreign concept to them. They want to know what I’m doing. Who I’m with

ATLASI watched the sunrise, failing to see the beauty hope always spoke of. I couldn’t feel the hope nor the positivity that they said followed a brand new day.Isn’t that what they always said to us? Go to bed. You’ll feel better in the morning.Well, I waited till morning and I still felt like shit.Or maybe, it was because I was’t technically in a bed. I’d stayed all night in the cramped hospital chair. And it was uncomfortable as fuck. To say the least.I wish I could say my bitter mood had to do with the fact that I lost my child.I really wish I could say it was that. But deep down, I knew the damned pictures I saw when I went through one of those gossip pages was the real reason I was so pissed.And yes, I’ve become obsessed with them. Checking them every second of everyday to see if they posted a new update on Jade. And they almost always have something new to report.Jade was the dictionary definition of booked and busy. She had events to attend. Places to go and people to m

JADEEverything that happened last night, mostly Damien’s presence ad him mentioning Atlas, ruined the entire evening for me.I understood the whole, ‘don’t let anyone get in the way of your peace’ thing but it was still annoying as hell.Dad, being amazing as he was, noticed how I was’t really in the mood to socialise and he asked if I wanted to leave early. I took the invitation so fast that he laughed. He said the necessary goodbyes and then we were on our way.He didn’t ask why I was acting that way he’d only pecked me on the forehead goodnight when he went up with me to my apartment. Then he said he hopes I will feel better in the morning.Could I really ask for abetter dad? He was understanding and loving and very attentive. I was almost in my mid twenties but I couldn’t help the childlike giddiness that always fills me when he is near.It reminded me of the excitement children felt when they saw their father at home. Or they heard the doorbells which usually meant he was back f
