Rejected Luna: He wants me back 81 : Tragedy
VERENAMy lips part in shock. “What?!”Norton nods. “Though, it would be wrong to say that they were killed. More like they died all of a sudden. But Alpha Nova phrased it as being ‘killed,’ so I mentioned that.” He explains, and my heart thumps against my ribs.“Thank you, Norton,” I say and close the file. “Inform me if you find a witch who can lift the curse.” My tone is stern.He bows his head. “Absolutely, Luna.” Saying that, he leaves Ezra’s room.I blow some air through my mouth. The Nova family died all of a sudden?An hour later, I dial a number while sitting in my office. The call rings thrice before someone answers it.“Luna Verena?” A male voice calls my name through the receiver’s end.“Alpha Nova,” I respond in a calm voice.“Ah, so you finally called. I was expecting it,” he says.“Then you must know the reason for my sudden call,” I say politely.The call goes silent for a few seconds.Then his voice comes again. “Yes, I know. It's regarding those glasses. How did you
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 82 : The Curse's Effect
VERENAMy grip on the phone tightens. “But those glasses are not in my house anymore,” I reply, my voice shaking.His voice is laced with concern. “It does not matter if they're thrown out or not. The curse uses one person in the house as a host, like it did with Helda. In your case, the host is…”“Ezra,” I whisper, finishing his sentence. My face turns pale.Suddenly, I feel a throbbing sensation in my head and realize that someone is trying to reach out to me through the pack link.“Please hold on a second,” I say and open the mind-link.“Rena, Rayn has fallen sick!” Mazie’s voice reaches me.“Shit! Wait, I’m coming,” I reply and close the link.I press the phone back to my ear. “Sorry, Alpha Nova. I have to go since something has come up.”“Something bad has happened in the house, hasn’t it?” His tight voice makes a shiver run down my spine.“Yeah, dad has fallen sick suddenly,” I reply, swallowing the lump in my throat.“I told you. The curse has already started to take effect. My
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 83 : A Surprise?
VERENAHe was fine this morning. Totally healthy. He’s not one to fall sick under the weather as he’s an Alpha wolf. Alpha wolves have strong immunity.I purse my lips. Alpha Nova is right. It has to be the curse’s effect.I gently hold Maria’s arm. “Don’t worry. Dad will be fine. I’ll call a witch tomorrow.”“Huh? A witch?” She frowns at me.I nod. “Yes. I’ll explain everything to you. But we need to act fast.”The next day, we get a witch to do a purification ritual on the house.“The curse is strong in the house. All I can do is wipe it away temporarily.” Naira looks at me as she pulls out a spray bottle from her canvas bag. “Keep in mind that it can come back, so the purification ritual won’t give you a hundred percent results.” The witch explains, and I notice the piercing on her lower lip.She does the ritual and an hour later, she hands me the spray bottle. “Whenever the curse affects someone in the house, spray it on that person. It has moonsilver water, so it should work.” Sh
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 84 : The Twins
VERENA“Drake! Dory!” I yell their names and pull them into a tight hug.“Luna!” Dory squeals as I wrap my arms around her. Maybe it's because of how stressed I have been that I am acting like a child. But I can’t hold back the tears in my eyes as I see them.I break the hug and look at them. They look different.They have both grown and are adults now.Drake isn’t that scrawny kid anymore. He’s all buffed out with broad shoulders and is taller than I remember. His brown hair, maybe a shade darker, is still short and messy, kind of like it always was. And those brown eyes match the brown leather jacket he’s wearing over a white t-shirt and ripped jeans that frame his muscular legs.But his eyes hold that same glint of mischief. “Holy shit! I barely recognize you! How long has it been?” he asks, smirking playfully at me while he has one hand on his jeans pocket. I am sure he garners a lot of attention from the ladies back at the pack.Dory slaps his arm, glaring at him. “Four years, idi
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 85 : Powers of the Celestial Wolf
VERENAMy heart tugs on hearing it. Sometimes he does that when he’s too focused or stressed about something.He’ll get an earful from me. How dare he ask me if I ate or not while he’s skipping his own meals?“Wait, Luna. I heard that you also shifted,” Dory says as we walk out of Ezra’s room and head to the living room.“Yeah, recently.”“It's a celestial wolf, right?” she asks, and I nod.“Yep, that’s me,” Serena says inside my head.“She can’t hear you,” I retort to my wolf.“Ugh, being a wolf sucks!” she says, and I can feel her disappointment. “I should have been the human, you should have been the wolf.”I hold the urge to roll my eyes. She has a five-year-old’s mind.“Hmmm.” Dory stops midway in the hall, and Drake almost collides with her as he’s walking behind her.“Hey! Move your fat ass,” he scowls at her.“Shut up, macaroni head. I'm thinking something here,” she retorts, and his jaw tightens.“You—”“Calm down, no fighting,” I tell them both while pressing my lips to hold
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 86 : It is Dangerous
VERENA“You wolves talk to her through some magical phone?” I ask her.“No, silly. We have some kind of a… eh… what’s the word for it?” She takes her sweet time to think before responding. “Yes! Cosmic connection. We talked through that but now I can’t. I don’t know what happened.”The Goddess isn’t guiding her celestial wolves anymore? That’s strange.“Here are some drinks for the kids.” Maria’s voice breaks through my conversation with Serena. She walks into the living room with a tray and sets it on the coffee table.“But we are not kids…” Drake replies with a displeased frown.“Aw, but you are kids to me.” She ruffles Drake’s hair, and Dory snickers again. “Here, this is for you…” She hands them her special Minty Mango Mocktail.Later at night, we have dinner together with Dad joining us. He’s in better shape now and is chuckling as Dory makes a joke. His hate for the Iron Claw Pack is only reserved for Elijah. Though I don’t think he hates him anymore.“Oh my Goddess, I am going
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 87 : Late Night Texts
VERENA“Did you forget we have a guest cottage? They won’t be harmed there. Also, you said you have that water to purify the house, right? So what’s there to worry about? I’ll make all the arrangements to make sure they are safe.”My muscles relax. Dad always keeps his word, so I have nothing to worry about.I look at the twins. “Yes, please stay. I’d like to show you around the pack,” I plead.“Man, I can’t refuse a request made by the Luna,” Drake says in a frustrated voice, and Dory smiles.I take them to the Guest Cottage that’s not very far from the main building and has a swimming pool. As Dad promised, everything is arranged for them, including the clothes and daily necessities they need since they haven’t brought any luggage.I spend some time exchanging light conversations with them, and once I make sure they are comfortable, I head back to the mansion.I walk inside Ezra’s room and find him sleeping. My heart clenches. I fed him dinner before I had mine, and the poor thing c
Rejected Luna: He wants me back 88 : What He Wants To Eat
VERENA“Alright. Let him in,” I say and get up from the bed.The moment I push open the foyer door, his musky, citrusy scent hits me. It sends a jolt straight to my stomach. He’s already turned, his broad, powerful frame filling the doorway. As our eyes meet, my breath catches in my throat.“I didn’t expect you to come today,” I say as I stand before him.He stares at me for a few seconds before he pulls out his phone and shows it to me. “I sent you so many messages last night. Twenty missed calls. Your phone was switched off,” he says, his tone showing his anger.Worry washes over his face before it's quickly replaced with a mask of annoyance. He holds up his phone, the screen showing his call log. “I tried calling you all night,” he says, his voice a low rumble. “Fifty messages. Your phone was off?” he asks, glaring at me. “I was so fucking worried, Rena. That’s why I came here to see if you aren’t doing anything reckless by yourself.”I purse my lips. “The battery died so I couldn’t
