Rejected Luna: Task with the Alpha God Chapter Ten
Ice’s POV.“I’m so far away from home.” I mutter silently, wrapping the poncho tighter as I watch the wind blows the sand around us. Kelly and I are enjoying our dinner outside the palace grounds.According to her, Desert Heart is located in the Middle East of the continent. If my calculations are correct, then I am roughly ten thousand miles away from the Crescent Valley. Desert Heart has extremely low humidity at night. If it was not for the slaves that are fanning us, then I would break a sweat.But pushing aside the uncomfortable weather, the view is breathtaking. Dull golden sands map all around us with hints of cactus instead of trees. I have only visited the Middle East once. It was for a mission where I had to take care of a business named Amun, who also happened to be the previous leader of one of the biggest crime syndicates in the world. It was a quick job though. “Huh, I never get to ask where you are coming from.” Kelly asks while propping an elbow on the table. “I take

Ice’s POV.If looks can kill, then I no longer have to complete my Impossible Mission because Master Athan would have done it already.“Athan! Are you looking for me?” Hunter asks while giving him a bro fist, one that Master Athan bumped a little too harshly with a grunt.“I just wanted to see if the party extended here.” He fakes a chuckle.“Ice, this is Athan. He has a very good reputation, have you heard of him?“No,” I lie easily. “Why?”“Well, he will be teaching here.” What? I look at Master Athan with wide eyes, “You’re a teacher here?”“Will be.” He nods. Again, what?My eyes match Master Athan’s when Hunter turns to me, “How is your wolf after your mate rejected you?”“She refuses to come out after being traumatized. Now I can’t shift properly.” I tell him honestly while giving a side eye to Master Athan. The nightfall puts a sombre Prussian blue shadow in the hollows of his eyes. Hunter gives me a look of pity. He places a hand on my shoulder, “Don’t worry, I’m sure Athan
Rejected Luna: Task with the Alpha God Chapter Twelve
Ice’s POV.I tie my hair into low braids before covering my body with sunblock. After lunch earlier, Hunter dismissed everyone and informed us that we will begin our travels by three in the afternoon so that there is enough time to prepare the camels.As I apply a coat of lip tint, Kelly knocks from the other side of my door. “Ice, would you want to borrow a hat?”I give myself a final look before putting the shades on top of my head and rush to open the door. “Yeah, definitely.”She hands me a plain beige hat while frowning at my outfit. Worry fills me. Is my plain white shirt, denim shorts, and sneakers culturally inappropriate for the Desert Heart?I look down at my clothes, “Is anything wrong?”“No,” She shakes her head, “It’s just that you look like a tourist.”“Oh,” I let out an awkward chuckle. “I apologize.”“It’s normal.” Brushing me off, she twirls around and showcases her blue geometric dress that covers her knees and her plain white hijab. “Don’t worry, we’ll go shopping l

Athan’s POV.After a few minutes since I last moved, Hunter moves his bishop to b5. I hold in a smirk as I realize that he plans on capturing my knight that protects my king to do checkmate.“How is the DarkShadow pack?” Hunter asks, trying to take my mind off our chess match.“Same old,” I answer him nonchalantly as I move my bishop to block his attack. “Although, Alpha Caleb did complain about the rogues roaming in our area.” “The rogues in Crescent Valley are difficult to contain,” He chuckles. “But I do my best to restrain them.” He moves his pawn to create a false opening.“I suggest working harder.” I tell him while not falling for his obvious bait, “The region sells you slaves to guarantee that. And, I am transferred here to ensure that.” I clear my throat to make it less than a threat.Hunter doesn’t seem like he took offence at what I said. He simply moves his rook and laughs, “I know, Athan.” He looks at me and I stop myself from growling when I see a mischievous look spark
Rejected Luna: Task with the Alpha God Chapter Fourteen
Ice’s POV.Bright light of the sun shines through and falls on the breakfast table. I roll my neck to ease the aching muscles from the training earlier. Since the last time I visited the sacrifice ritual, I have been afraid to face Kelly and her brother. Much to my relief, Kelly isn’t with me today. She was invited to a tea party while I chose to stay in the palace. “ICE!” Master Athan’s voice startles me. I turn around and watch his gorgeous face and fine physique walk towards me. As much as I don’t like to admit it, my ex mate is a perfect specimen carved on an image of a God walking on this planet. I hate, no, I despise his guts, but don’t I just love his physical appearance.One of the reasons why I fell hard for him even before knowing that we were mates would be his looks, after all. Thinking about it, I find it odd how he doesn’t look his age. Then again, we are werewolves. And despite not being immortal, we do age slower. But still, it seems like he doesn’t age at all.My tho
Rejected Luna: Task with the Alpha God Chapter Fifteen
Athan’s POV.My heart almost gave out when Ice’s eyes rolled to the back of her head with knees buckled. I caught her immediately but at the same time, images I refuse to go back to flashed in my mind. The last time someone fell unconscious on my arms still haunts me to this day. After all, it was Isabella’s cold and lifeless frame. I feel my wolf stir inside of me, anxious.I have been watching over Ice since she lost consciousness earlier. I have to leave for a few hours, however, to get her things and for me to inform Hunter about my absence to take care of my student.I see the worried look in his eyes, and that just pisses me off. I ask him not to tell his sister with the disguise of not wanting to worry her. But the truth is that I have noticed my little girl distancing herself from the siblings since the incident back in the pyramids. Honestly I don't want Ice to get too close to them.Holding the duffel bag filled with clothes and necessities Ice might need, I walk in the clin
Rejected Luna: Task with the Alpha God Chapter Sixteen
Ice’s POV.I can’t believe Athan took care of me the whole time.When I woke up earlier in my bedroom, I wondered how I got there because the last thing I remembered before drifting to sleep was that I was lying down on the clinical bed. I looked for Freya for answers, and she simply told me that Athan was the one who brought me to my room.“Are you guys together?” She asks me. “I find it weird for him to carry you like that.”“What are you talking about?” My eyes widened uncontrollably before brushing the idea off her head. “He’s just being a good instructor. He would do that with anyone.”With a raised eyebrow that obviously looks like she doesn’t believe me, she shrugs and drops the topic.Now that I’m alone in the cafeteria eating my lunch, I am able to spiral in my own whirlwind of questions that might remain unanswered forever because knowing Athan, he won’t give me anything.But why did he go out of his way to take care of me? According to Freya, he brought me back to my room l
Rejected Luna: Task with the Alpha God Chapter Seventeen
Athan’s POV.Something is wrong. When my senses intensified with panic eating me up while I was teaching a group of students earlier, even without having my wolf telling me, I know deep in my bones that something is definitely wrong.Without waiting for another second, I dismissed the students and walk towards Freya. “Where is Ice?”She blinks before looking around if anyone can hear us. When the coast is clear, she says with a sarcastic tone, “I don’t know, Master. I’m here training, as you can see.”Her oblivious to the scenario makes me irk. “Freya, you have one job.”She crosses her arms. “And being inconspicuous is part of it.” Noticing my unfazed expression, her face softens and ask, “Is she okay? Do you want me to check up on her?”“Now. Check up on her, now.” My wolf growls at me. I shake my head to her and let her go back with her training before rushing back to the palace to check on Ice. Why would she feel such an awful emotion?Since she went to the clinic because she witn
