Chasing His Rejected Luna 205
ATLASMy mind was running. I was thinking of what to do, how to do it and what results I would get. I was leaving with Jade, that much was clear. The baby she is having is mine, and mine alone. And I am going to be there from now onwards.Maybe it would be bad to say I didn’t care about what she thinks, or what she wants right now. She has done things her way for the past few months. It is time for me to do it my way now.Andrew had been the first to reach out and tell me there were pictures of me heading into the hospital all over social media and the news. And also, from a reliable source, which he found to be the cab driver that had driven Jade to the hospital, they knew Jade was here too. And now, it was a battle of what is going on. Why are we both here and not Antonio.You have no idea how that pissed me off. the audacity they has to mention him while I was with my wife.I have been thinking about the. And not in the usual ‘I want to skin him alive and tear him limb from limb for

ATLASI paced the room, my mind reeling with anger with each set that I was taking. Donald stood on the other Side looking like he has no idea what to do.“And have you figured out who put that hit out?” I paused and asked, running a hand through my hair in frustration.Two days ago, I wound’t have been this worried about someone trying to kill me. Now that I knew I was having a child with Jade. You cam be sure I’m going to be fucking alive to watch that child grow up. My blood won’t be raised by anyone but me.“We have tried searching, cross-checking the IP address. Reverse searching it. Everything, but nothing comes up.” He sounded as frustrated as I feel. “It is like the person sent this from heaven or some other word because it doesn’t exist anywhere.”I nodded absentmindedly, my mind still running as I thought of what to do. Which avenue to follow. The last thing I wanted was this affecting Jade in any way. Not when she is already sick and carrying a baby. She should be relaxed an

JADE I was surprised to find Atlas gone when I woke up. He had been too cautious to go anywhere. I don’t know if he expected me to run or whatever he was thinking but I didn’t expect it. Dad was the one sitting on the chair he’d been on earlier. He smiled and got up when he noticed my eyes were open. Standing beside the bed, he takes my hands in his and gives it a reassuring squeeze. He didn’t need to say anything, he already knew everything that went out. It mad eye feel a little worried that I missed the conversation he must have had with Atlas. What did he tell him? He is’t the most calm man in the world and we would really come to it if he disrespects my dad. “Do you want any water?” I nodded because my throat parched, and that sounded really god. There was a pitcher and a paper cup beside the cup which poured and handed to me. I took it to my li[s with slightly unsteady hands. Only when I took the first sip, it felt like. Was going to throw up. But I appreciated the slight we

JADEThe doctor brought coconut flavoured water and I gulped the entire thing in one go. She looked relived when I took it all at once.“You can just keep more of the water close to you in case you need it. And there are other flavours too.” I nodded and thanked her as she lectured the room, leaving me with Atlas once again.He hasn’t spoken a word to me since dad left the room, and we were both just lost in our thoughts. Though, he has been on his phone since he came in. And I wanted to bash the device over his head. I breathed in and forced myself to calm down. Saying he wasn’t even worth it all.I forgot I was staring at him until he looked up and our eyes met. The softened for a second before he did his emotions.“Do you need anything?” He asked after I looked away. I actually didn’t think he would speak to me so I was taken aback when he did and it took me a few seconds to think of responding. When I finally regained my composure, I shook my head and then focused on the large wind

ATLASI signed the discharge papers a nurse brought a few minutes later the doctor left. Jade was sill not speaking to me although I didn’t fault her for that. I didn’t want to speak either because it would be so easy to say the right thing when my blood was still boiling from the realisation I had.When she tried to get up, I rushed and held her down which she didn’t look happy about . But the doctor said she needed to rest and that is what she’ll do. I don’t care if she likes it or not. There is no way we’re putting our chid in harm’s way.Fuck. There was just something entirely too pleasing about the thought of that being our child. Mine and hers. The symbol of us being together. The one way she can never get rid of me. trust me, I’ll make sure it never happens.I sent a text to Donald telling him we were ready and about to leave so he should clear the exit we were going to follow. While he did that, I went and got Jade her clothes which had been brought to the hospital by her fathe

JADERay met me by the door when I came in. She wrapped her arms around me as soon as she could, and only when I heard the soft sniffle did it click in my head that she was crying. I tightened my own arms around her and became the one comforting her.“Hey, it’s okay. I’m fine.” I didn’t mean for my voice to break but it did toward the end. She shook her head when I planned to move back a little so I just relented and held her a little longer.Sometimes I forget how really young she s because she acts so wise and beyond her age most of the time. It shines through though, at times. And today is one of those time. So, I hold her a little longer and tell her that everything is going to be fine. Even if I don’t believe it deep down myself.We settle into the couch with her beside me and Aiden on the other side. He didn’t say anything to me besides a nod of acknowledgement. But you could tell how worried he was from his eyes. They were so expressive.He is so different now than the first tim

JADEAntonio looked very different from the last time I saw him. He looked calm as he walked towards me and wrapped his arms around me, kissing my forehead and the top of my head.“I just heard about the hospital from your dad. I’m so sorry, baby.” He spoke softly, his arms becoming tighter around me.I tapped on his chest a few times so he would release me because I was feeling suffocated and the smell of hiccups cologne was going straight to my head and not in a good way. When he finally released me, it felt like a noose that had been tightened around my neck was finally loosened.“How are you feeling now? Is there anything I can do? Do you need anything?” I forced a smile and shook my head.“No, I’m fine. Much better now.” It was getting harder and harder to be close to him so I took a step back and sat on the loveseat. He took the couch, which was not very close to me but it still felt too close for some reason.What the hell is going on with me? I couldn’t understand all of these

ATLASWe were on our back to the hotel when I saw Jade’s drugs. And thinking she would need it, I told the river to turn around and head back so I could give it to her. I was only too happy to see her again before it was time for us to leave.Her younger sister was who I met with when I got there. She gave me a dirty glare before walking off and leaving me there. A maid appeared thankfully and she directed me on where Jade’s room was. When I got there, I was surprised when I heard yelling. I identified the voice immediately and all I could see was red.Not was only is he here, which I didn’t like even a bit, but he was yelling at Jade. The woman carrying my child. That black eye he said I gave him, I’ll give him a fucking real on now.I squeezed through the elevator even before it fully opened. The more ti saw him, bloodlust filled me as I pushed him away from her.“Why the fuck are you yelling at her?!” I screamed in his face. It was taking everything in me not to be beat him to a pu
