The Howl of Rejection Chapter 23: After Rejection
Ever since the rejection, I have doubted myself. There are a lot of questions flooding my mind. Was I not good enough? Am I not fit to be Luna? I continued packing up the dresser until I could no longer bear it. I fell onto my bed and slumped. Kaila jerked her head towards me before walking to the end I sat on and took the clean spot next to me. "What's wrong with me, Kai?" She wrapped her slender hands around my shoulders in an act of comfort and sighed wearily. "There's nothing with you, Rain. You just lost your mate. It's a completely natural reaction to that," she said. I shook my head. "No, not that. I mean my whole life. Why am I so different from all of the other female wolves?"Sympathy crossed over her features as she stared back at me. "There's nothing wrong with you like I said, Rain. You are your own person. You are special. It reminds me of a book I read about Princess Letisha in Middle Eastern countries. She was adventurous and outspoken. She followed what her heart
The Howl of Rejection Chapter 24: Confrontations and saying Goodbye
"I come here to talk," Killian said. "I won't come any further if you would prefer it."I didn't speak. I was afraid even to dare to speak. My voice couldn't hold up talking to Killian. Everything I buried deep inside would come spilling out with my words. Instead of answering, I nodded at him, and he understood. He dropped his hands and sat facing me on the edge of my bed. Even in my wolf's weak state, she tried to listen. "I had to see you before you left. I need to explain myself before you hate me forever."His words seem sincere, and I have difficulty believing in him. But my wolf believes in him. "I want you to know I never intended to reject you," he began. "The day I discovered you was the happiest moment in my life. Maybe if you had stayed in the pack, I would have met you before Isabelle. I had my eye on you when I first saw you during your graduation. I thought to myself, maybe if you were mateless, I would have courted you. But after that, you disappear. And hardly join
The Howl of Rejection Chapter 25: Living the Pack to start over
Killian's eyes become apologetic. "You're right. I'm sorry. I just want to feel it again one last time.""You can't just reject me, then waltz into my house like you own this place, fill me with hurtful stories and then kiss me. It doesn't work like that. I understand your wolf might have pushed you to come over, but that's not an excuse. Isabelle is your mate now, not me," I said, making my voice a little louder. I was surprised that it didn't hurt me to be so blunt about it. There was a twinge of sadness in me, but I was hollow once more with my wolf gone again. He looked away from me in shame. He was staring at the fully open suitcase on my bed. "So, I guess you are going then," he said. "Yes, tonight."His head snapped at me. "So soon?""There is no reason to prolong my stay here, is there? I need to pick up the pieces and move on with my life, and getting out of this town is the only way to do that.""I think it is," he admitted. "But where will you go?" It took a moment fo
The Howl of Rejection Chapter 26: The New Pack
Erix and I took turns fiddling with his radio inside his truck. The radio picked up many radio stations, but none of the songs they currently play suited our taste. Although Erix has some burned CDs, he told me that the truck wasn't his and belonged to his father. So, I should expect some old songs. "We should play just one. The old songs are gold. I still like to hear some of them rather than the new-aged music. I don't quite like it," I told him as I flipped the cd holder. "Well, you probably won't like it. But be my guess," Erix replied, concentrating his eyes on the road. I found some eighties to early nineties songs such as Bolton's, Shaina, and Bon Jovi. "Are you kidding me? These are all my favorites!" I told him before removing one of BJ's CDs and feeding it to the cd player. When the song started to play, my mood suddenly changed. I'm a sucker for old songs. My dad used to have many of them, and he would play songs while I watched him fix his car. Or sometimes I see
The Howl of Rejection Chapter 27: Meeting Everyone
When Erix stopped in front of me with his hand extended, I broke from my thought. I stared at his palm, facing upward, waiting for me to take it."Unity," he said, answering an unspoken question. "It's important to the pack and me." "Right," I answered dumbly. I placed my hand in his large one, the heat enveloping it. While he seemed comfortable holding on to me, I was stiff. This thing between us was something new. He gave it a light squeeze and smiled teasingly."Loosen up. We both have to get used to this eventually."Though it was mostly forced, I smiled back and tried to take his advice. I loosened up. I heave a sigh and let my shoulders fall to relax. I was never a fan of the crowd, even though I used to work in a diner. But he is right, and the restaurant and pack are different. I know I can do this.I gripped his hand a little tighter and nodded to him. "Okay, I'm ready."Erix seemed satisfied and pulled me beside him, away from the garage. The large house came back into vi
The Howl of Rejection Chapter 28: Erix's Pack
I tensed at Erix's words. The next full moon? We still needed to discuss our mating date. Wasn't I supposed to be part of the decision?I shot him a disgruntled look. I'll wait until after this is over before I ask him about that. "I hope you will all give her a warm welcome to our pack. I want her to feel at home here," he finished. He shot me a breathtaking smile that would have melted me like butter if I wasn't still hurting due to recent events.There were murmurs of kind words and delighted looks on the faces of the pack. Almost immediately, people were lining up to greet me. They had obeyed Erix's request without issue. None of them seems forced to be polite. It honestly felt like they wanted to because I meant something to Erix."It's nice to meet you, Rain," an older woman said, shaking my hand. "I'm Sophia, Erix's Aunt. It's nice to put a face with the name finally.""It's a pleasure to meet you too. And I was sorry for the scene a few minutes ago," I replied. Sophia smile
The Howl of Rejection Chapter 29: First Night
I didn't know he had a sister. Erix didn't mention it to me earlier. I thought I had met all of his family tonight. "Yeah," she nodded. "I just got back from my friend's house. Can you let him know that Erina made it back home, okay? I'm just going to go to bed." "Sure," I smiled. "I'm Rain, by the way." I was worried by the excitement that crossed her face at the mention of my name. She entered the room and sat next to me on the bed. "You're Rain," she said. "Of course you are. I feel so dumb. I was hoping I'd meet you soon. I didn't think it would be this soon, you know? I thought my brother might keep you to himself for a while, if you know what I mean." Who wouldn't know what she means? We both blushed at her comment. "How old are you?" I giggled. "Fourteen," she answered. "I might not be an adult yet, but I know how mates work." "True mates, maybe, but Erix and I weren't exactly the traditional types," I told her. She looked at me. Maybe she didn't understand the distin
The Howl of Rejection Chapter 30: Erina
"Sorry if I startled you," Erina said, smiling. "I came here to check if you are already awake." I giggled. "It's fine. I was surprised to see you still here. Don't you have school today?" She shrugged. "I went to school, but classes are suspended. So I went home and decided to come and see you. You know, for catching up," Erina replied before making herself comfortable on Erix's bed. "Oh, alright. Wait for a sec and let me freshen up," I answered before walking back to the bathroom and doing my business. It took me half an hour before I finally exited the bathroom, ready to talk with Erina. "Shall I take you to my room? I made some breakfast there when I returned from school," she invited me. "Okay, lead the way," I smiled at her. Erix won't mind if I leave without telling him, right? Erina must have guessed what was in my mind. "I told Wyatt to tell Erix that I'll kidnap you and return to him when I feel like I want to," she said, grinning at me. I laughed at wh
