Chasing His Rejected Luna 20: Thinking About You
JADEMaking it to the alpha’s room, which was a floor above where my old room used to be, was the hardest of them all. Not because anyone was there but I kept feeling like someone would see me. Atlas’s mother specifically. And she is the last person I want to see. Besides, the man himself.When I got to the door, I breathed out a sigh of relief and pushed it open. Only to come to a sudden stop when my eyes landed on familiar ones.Annie was sitting up on the bed, her back pressed against the headboard. A sheen of sweat covered her forehead and she held the sheets to her chest. From her exposed bare shoulders, I didn’t need magnifying glasses to know she is naked underneath. And the sound of the shower running was kind of a dead giveaway for what happened.I swallowed the lump that formed in my throat.So, this is where he has been. I wish I could say I was glad he didn’t come back after our kiss. But I would be lying.“What are you doing here?” She looked at me almost bored.Swallowin
Chasing His Rejected Luna 21: In-Law From Hell
JADEI had to pause and ask myself if I was dreaming. There was no way this was happening.I mean, Atlas was holding me against him. His grip was so tight you would think he was at the edge of a cliff and I was the only one that could pull him up.Another shiver skated down my spine. Making a soft sound leave my throat.His lips traced a path down the side of my neck and goosebumps erupted all over my skin.There was a voice in my head, screaming at me to move. But alas, the feel of his soft lips on my skin made all thoughts of self preservation fly out the window. It helped that this felt really good.I totally understood why women stayed in marriages. I would stay too. If he kept touching me like this. I won’t ever leave.“You smell so good,”There was something raw and unfamiliar about his voice. I couldn’t place my finger on it. All I knew was, it made me clench my things and hope for things I know only he could give me.When his hand slipped under my hoodie and squeezed my breast
Chasing His Rejected Luna 22: Worst Side Of Me
ATLASI was gritting my teeth so hard. It was a surprise they didn’t break.Annie’s hand tightened around mine. Her red rimmed and tear filled eyes pleading with me to stay here with her.Her fear was so evident and the worry too.It made my chest tight. I couldn’t believe Jade actually tried to hurt her. I thought she was bigger than this.‘You can’t seriously believe Jade would try to hurt anyone. A pregnant woman, at that?’ I ignored Kian who scoffed in my head.I couldn’t trust his judgment when it came to Jade. He liked her as his mate so of course he would defend her, even if she was wrong.My mother’s chilling voice came from the door and I huffed out. I didn’t want her to come here until everything was already settled.She didn’t like Jade. And if there was a chance of me getting her back. She would ruin it simply by talking.I leaned down and pressed a kiss to Annie’s forehead, then I assured her I would be back just then. I headed toward my mother and Jade.The former was tr
Chasing His Rejected Luna 24: No Karma
JADE“I’ll drive you home,” Andrew spoke, not turning to face me and I nodded robotically.I reached down and quickly picked up the papers Atlas made me throw again. I didn’t know what to feel after everything that happened. So I just decided to shut off all emotions and thoughts in my head.Before we turned and left, I looked into the room and found Annie staring right back at me, with a slight curve of her lips. She was pleased. Her plan had worked.I shook my head and followed Andrew.The car was heavy with silence as he drove me back home. He didn’t say anything and I didn't have anything to fill the silence with. I thought of turning the radio on a few times but I never did and just settled for looking out the window. Watching as we passed by endless trees and a few cars on the highway.“Jade. Jade.” My eyes snapped open and I jerked, trying to pull away from something that was holding me down. “Careful, you still have your seatbelt on.”Seatbelt? What was I doing in the car? I h
Chasing His Rejected Luna 24: Half Shift
JADE“Ohhh, cute neck piece.” Daiya winked at me, her fiery red curls bouncing as she walked out of the office with my file in hand.I didn’t even get to thank her for the compliment.She isn’t the first person to comment on it. Since I’d come to work, many people I ran into noticed it. I had thought of tucking it under my shirt because of the attention it was getting.I thought it was just an ancient looking thing that would remind me of my grandmother. The interest everyone was taking in it surprised me.It didn’t look particularly expensive. There was a stone in front of it but I doubted it was any special type. It definitely wasn't a diamo
Chasing His Rejected Luna 25: Put Down
JADEI was still watching Mr. Harrison in shock when Willow rushed into the room, like she knew what was happening.She ran up to me and tried to pull me off the floor. That managed to knock sense into me and I followed her, getting up as my senses came back to me.It wasn’t a wise decision to be close to someone when they are in a half shift stage. Nothing was familiar to them and they could harm anyone.“What’s that?” She asked I couldn’t tell if she was talking to me or not.I may have snapped out of my panicked state, but I’m still not fully in the right frame of mind to process things.Realizing that, she pulls out her phone from her pocket and dials for a bit before I hear her give one order.“Bring the tranquilizer.”She led me to my office, neither of us addressing the elephant in the room.Nothing had ever brought it up so I just assumed she was a human and she didn’t know about the whole werewolf thing. From the lack of shock in her eyes, I can tell she does. And she isn’t f
Chasing His Rejected Luna 26: Candy Makes You Smile
JADEI was still in shock of what Mr. Harrison said.The conversation with him has been running through my head for hours. I couldn’t sleep last night. I kept tossing and turning and staring at the locket I had held in my fat since he gave it back to me.He’d heaved a heavy sigh before he started speaking.‘The blood rhinestone was created to destroy alphas. Not all alphas, but certain alphas from different packs. And his pack had been one of them. Just as it was made to be their downfall, it was also their only saving grace.Unless you had one in your possession, you won’t be able to stop your pack being destroyed. And no matter your strength or the size of your army. A small pack could overthrow you because that is just the curse of the thing. Each pack was assigned one gem. And if you lose it. You lose your pack.’The one I had belonged to Mr. Harrison’s pack. His old pack, I guess. Seeing as it was with me. I would guess the pack was destroyed. He’d seemed bothered when we starte
Chasing His Rejected Luna 27: Angelic Hero
JADEI called myself dumb in many different ways when I saw just how dark it had gotten when I left the park. And of all, I chose today to not come out with my phone.I don’t even know what I was thinking. Or rather, wasn’t thinking. But I couldn’t order an uber and there were no signs of cabs anywhere on the street. I knew about this so why did I let myself lose track of time? Stupid. Stupid. Stupid!!!To be fair, I had completely zoned out.I had no choice but to walk. It was even better than going to find a bus station because it was farther than where I was heading.My head was down and my steps were quick. I had one goal and that was getting home safely.“Ahhh,” I cursed when I felt a burn on my chest.It was sharp and extremely painful. I couldn’t keep going because of the pain so I leaned against one of the walls where I was walking. There wasn’t much light here and I wanted to keep walking forward. But my knees felt too weak and the pain was just getting worse.I unzipped my j
