I should have worn a scarf.

My free hand instinctively flew to my neck, covering the mark—too late, the damage was already done. The dining room suddenly felt stuffy, my heart lodged in my throat as Mum's narrowed gaze bore into me.

“I asked a question,” she pressed on, her voice quiet and even.

Damn! Damn! Damn!

What was I supposed to tell her?

“Lena,” she said, setting her cup down again.

“I… Uhmm… I was investigating something, and things got a bit physical, and I ende

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 30: He's Unstoppable. 

    [Third-Person POV] Blackstone PackThe celebrations slowly came to an end as the people left for their various homes. Melissa fumed with silent rage as she put on a fake smile, standing at the exit, bidding the guests goodnight and thanking them for heeding their invitation to attend the party at their pack despite the sudden change of venue. She didn't miss it—the mockery in their smiles as they passed by, the way they responded to her too sweetly, or the way their stares lingered longer than necessary. How disgusting! Elena is definitely going to pay for this. Maya and Niah tried their best to wipe the cream, but there was still some in her hair, and she still smelled like dessert. Huffing out a breath, she folded her hands and headed for the bar at the other end before her face distorts from all the fake smiles she's been forcing. “One shot of vodka, please,” she said to the bartender as she sat down on the stool. “Here, Luna Melissa,” he said, placing the drink on the counte

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 29: Stay With Me.

    { Nicholas POV} The ride got really silent. I kept one eye on the road and the other stayed glued to her reflection in the rearview mirror. She kept looking out of the window, providing me with the perfect view of her side profile. I noticed every crease on her face, wondering what she was battling inside. I eased off the accelerator as the road narrowed. She tilted her head and threw me a quick glance, then turned back to face the window. “We're almost home.” I said. “I know.”The sprawling iron gates of Crescent Moon Manor came to view. I stopped at the gate and honked. The guards came almost immediately, opened up, and waved me through to the garage.I brought the car to a complete stop once inside the garage, pulled the keys from the ignition, and tossed them onto her lap. “Home sweet home.”“Thanks once again,” she said softly, turning to face me. “Oh, it's nothing.” I said, leaning against the car. I got out of the car first before coming down. Elena stood staring at me in

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 28: Warning Birdie.

    { Elena's POV } Motherfucking Lucan! He had a habit of appearing in the exact moments I let my guard down. One minute I was smiling at the moon, celebrating my little win. The next minute—him. I did not turn around. If I turned around it was real, but I did anyway. “What the fuck do you want from me?”He didn't reply or even move back—damn he was too close, just kept staring hard at me with a smirk on his lips. “Why so harsh, little birdie?” His gaze dropped to the glass of rum in my hand. Before I could protest he had jerked it away and taken a slow deliberate sip, from the exact spot my lipstick had marked.“You!” I snapped at him, clenching my fists. The smirk on his face grew wider as stepped closer, making me draw back until my shoulders hit the wall behind me. “Have anyone told you,” he said,trailing his fingers from my cheek to my jawline, “you look much prettier when you're livid.”My breath hitched, “get your filthy hands off me.” I slapped his hand off. His smirk turn

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 27: The Balance Game.

    { Elena's POV } The last person who called me sis stole my mate, my stone, and my dignity in that order.Unfortunately that same person was sitting right next to me with the sweetest expression on her face. I did not move, I did not speak. Just looked at her—really looked. Lia went absolutely still inside me, and it scared me a bit. Whenever she goes this quiet, things are about to get really messy.“Missed me too much, huh? Stop staring, I'm here,” she said, nudging my shoulder with hers. Pretending suited her about as well as a crown suited a snake.“What sort of drama are you cooking up this time around, Melli?” I sneered, looking straight into her hazel eyes. “Come on, don't be like that. I'm just trying to catch up on old memories. Do you really just have to be so bitter?” she said, a wounded expression on her face. “Oh, drop it Melissa, I fucking know the stunts you're trying to pull; don't give me that pity face and try to act all nice like all is good, you two-faced bitch

What was I supposed to tell her? “Lena,” she said, setting her cup down again. “I… Uhmm… I was investigating something, and things got a bit physical, and I ended up getting a cut.” I paused. “I am fine; it is nothing serious.” “Oh, really.” She dragged, giving me that ‘You think I'm a fool’ look. Of course she doesn't believe me; she's married and more experienced with these things. We both knew she knew. Casting one long look at me, she finished her remaining tea in one gulp and stood up. “I will have Ria send your dress to your room,” she said in a firm tone, already walking out of the dining. “But I said I wasn't going,” I groaned out in frustrati

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 25: Cornered

    [Elena's POV]If looks could kill, Ambrose would be lying lifeless on the floor by now because of the way I was glaring hard at him. The idiot winked back at me as he shut the door behind him. Nicholas was such a dick, it seems like he's been leaving the door unlocked deliberately, because tell me why this had occurred two consecutive times. “Alvin ran.” Ambrose repeated as he balanced his weight on the sofa. “We heard you the first time, dude.” Nicholas snotted. “Oh, cool it man, it's not my fault I ruined your fun.” Ambrose shrugged, and I cursed him through the mind link. Such an idiot. Nicholas chuckled, “Actually, the fun already ended before you came.”Ambrose's mouth formed an O shape as he looked from Nicholas to me and then back to Nicholas. “You guys!” I snapped, my chest heaving with anger. I didn't need to look at a mirror to tell how flushed my face was. My wrists still stung from the effect of the silver cuffs. I was so stupid. I absolutely hate myself right now. “
