Chasing His Rejected Luna 32: Surprise
JADEDamien, the man with the gorgeous eyes, proved he was a great company last night.Though it felt a bit weird when he was flirting with me. Overall, I had a great time and by the time we decided to call it a night, it was almost two in the morning. He did take me home. After much argument.I learnt that he wasn’t easily dissuaded, especially when he put his mind to something.For some reason, I was more interested in dressing up. So I picked up my best blouse and the new pants I had got for work. I spent more time on my hair than I usually did. I tried curling it, which was a failure, so I just straightened it and went on my way.I got into work quite early, most of the floors were empty when I got there. I head straight to my office and decide to catch up on work that I might’ve missed from yesterday. There wasn’t much to do. And I knew it would take an hour or two at most.I was going through some of the notes Willow must have left when I heard a knock on the door and said perso
Chasing His Rejected Luna 33: Locket Secrets
JADE“W-what?” I stuttered when I was finally able to move my mouth.The tears trailed down Mr. Harrison’s face and he nodded slowly. He pulled out the handkerchief tucked into his suit coat and wiped his face with it. He paused until he got his bearing right before attempting to speak again.“I went to Atlas’s office this morning to confirm some things about you.”He explained how he had suspected it since he saw the locket. But his wolf had taken over before we could talk and after that. He didn’t feel it was the right time to bring that up. Also, he was scared to let himself hope for that.He had been looking for more than twenty years but came up empty. It had felt too good to be true when he saw me.“Though he wasn't much help, as you can see. He doesn’t like me.” He let out a mirthless chuckle. “But once I told him why I was asking. He was more keen on talking to me.”Mr. Harrison’s red rimmed eyes stared into mine and my heart tugged. Wanting to take away that pain I was seeing
Chasing His Rejected Luna 34: Tantrums
ATLASThe sound of glass breaking makes me sit up sharply. I blinked and looked around the room before my memories slowly came back. I was in the office.I’ve been stuck in one place since Harrison left. I couldn’t tell if it was from the shock of what he had said or the reality of what will soon happen.“Earth to Atlas.” Andrew picked pieces of the tumbler that must have fallen. “Where are you disappearing off to?” He questioned, standing over me and watching me with obvious confusion.“What do you want?” I asked, clearing my throat and sitting up straight.I brush my hair back and shake my head. None of it clears my thoughts though.“You forgot we had a meeting with the alpha of SideCrest pack?”“Shit.” I cursed and got to my feet. Wearing my suit jacket and nodding toward the door.I turned to find Andrew holding a hand up for me to stop.“Didn’t you say we were running late? Let’s go!”“I already called and told him to reschedule.” I glared at him.“And why would you do that? I di
Chasing His Rejected Luna 35: No Longer Alone
JADEI don’t think I’ll ever get used to this and we haven’t even spoken about it at length.Ford, or rather, dad, now, said he’s giving me the space I think about this deeply.He explained how he and my mum got separated and how she ended up with the blood rhinestone.Just to confirm that he really was my father. We took a DNA test which came almost identical. Though to be honest, I didn’t have any more doubts after seeing the picture inside the locket. The fact that he had the key, when I didn’t even know what it looked like said enough.My grandmother had also said it would help me find the truth out. Part of that truth was finding my father.How ironic I literally came to his company.Should I mention this wouldn’t have happened if I didn't make the choice to put myself first and divorce Atlas. Speaking of which. I haven’t seen him since the incident at the house with Annie. Not physically at least.Last night, I’d decided to watch the local news channel. They were showing an eve
Chasing His Rejected Luna 36: Lost Hope
ATLAS“How do I look?” Annie’s voice pulls me from my distracted thoughts. She was looking at me expectantly as she re-applied her lipstick.A bold red color that almost made her look like she was doing too much. It was a total contrast to the soft pink lip gloss Jade always wore. The former seemed to be begging for attention. While the latter acted like she was doing her best to remain hidden.I couldn’t tell her all that of course, I was already late for the meeting and she would want to go and change. So I smiled and told her what I know will hurry her along.“You look perfect.”She grinned, her perfect teeth shining.She leaned into me from her chair and placed a hand on my chest. Her eyes softened when she spoke.“I want to give the right impression as your partner,” she inhaled slowly. “I know people think I can’t be half of the luna Jade was, but I want to try.”Something heavy settled in my heart at the mention of Jade. I told myself it was because of what she said and how she
Chasing His Rejected Luna 37: Crazy Thoughts
JADEI was still in shock and disbelief when we left the restaurant. I couldn't believe Atlas acted that way.The man barely looked at me twice in the four years we were married. And now he was going crazy thinking I was with someone? What exactly did he want? What did it all mean?“Don’t worry yourself with thoughts about Atlas. He’ll stop once he realises it is for nothing.” Dad said, placing his hand in mine and giving it a comforting squeeze.I rolled my tongue over my bottom teeth. Thinking of the right thing to say. Was there even a right thing to say in this situation?What even is the situation?Ex husband realises his wife that he has ignored for four years is actually useful after trying it out with his not too bright mistress and seeing life isn’t really all that good?Not only was it a mouthful. It didn't make much sense.Atlas wasn’t regretting treating me the way he had all these years. I can just tell he is pissed that it seems like I’m moving on.He didn’t want me. But
Chasing His Rejected Luna 38: Her True Value
ATLAS“Why are you here?” I ask my beta, rounding the car to get into the passenger side.He opens the door on the side and gets into the back beside me. Not the front like he did the other day when he was feeling petty. I wanted to call him out on it just so I wouldn’t be the only one in a shitty mood. But he already had the upper hand over me.“We always go to work together.” He replies with a nonchalant shrug that made me want to dislocate his shoulder.“We don’t.” I left no room for argument.“Well, since you became a bachelor like me and stopped riding with a wife. I thought it would be good to keep you company so you don’t, you know….” He slid his finger over his neck, in the universal slaughter sign and I rolled my eyes.He is really stupid.“Do yourself a favor and stop visiting me.” He chuckles.“No can do, brother. I’m your suicide prevention hotline.”“If you’re not careful. You’ll be calling the cops next and reporting me for murder hotline.”“How would I do that if I am d
Chasing His Rejected Luna 39: Starting Over
JADEWhen I woke up, I told myself I was going to start afresh. With no thoughts of Atlas, or Annie, or anything and anyone related to my old pack.They may have been the only family I had apart from my grandmother, but if they didn’t want me. Then I’ll give them what they want and remove myself from anywhere they’ll probably be.It may be a little hard, seeing as Brandon is Atlas’s uncle. But oh well. I rarely saw him when I was in the pack. And Atlas sure as hell has never visited him.After my shower, I stood in front of the mirror. I couldn’t help but feel slightly different. I couldn’t pinpoint my finger on what exactly was different about me.Did my eyes seem lighter? Was my skin glowing?I almost laughed at the incredulous question. I’ve lost my mind.My eyes really were glowing though. It is weird that I was noticing something like that about myself. Probably because I rarely looked in the mirror on a normal day.Or maybe, it is the sign of a new start. You could pretend you w
