My Rejected Billionaire Luna Wife Chapter 20: The Challenge
“Can I buy you a drink?” It was yet another man who had come by their table to hit on Amelia. It seemed like all the men in the bar had their eyes on her. Who could blame them? She was beautiful and talented. “No, thank you,” Amelia smiled sweetly at the latest man. He was good-looking; there was no doubt about that. But Amelia was perfectly content to hang out with her friends. They were having a great time together. She wasn’t looking for a date. “Well, mind if I sit down then?” he asked. And he was just about to slide in next to Amelia when he noticed Jonathan. Jonathan was sitting very closely to Amelia. He shot the man a look that said ‘back off’.“Oh,” was all the man said and walked away. “That’s, like, the tenth guy who’s offered to buy you a drink tonight,” Lily laughed. “Aren’t you interested in any of them?” Laura asked. Amelia shook her head. She honestly wasn’t. She had everything she needed right here at this table.
My Rejected Billionaire Luna Wife Chapter 21: The Revelation
They arrived back at the hotel. Jonathan slept the whole way but when the car came to a stop, they were able to wake him. This reassured Amelia that he would be okay. They arranged for a room next to Amelia’s. He was still very drunk, but he could walk. He was quiet as they walked through the hotel. In the elevator, he wrapped his arm around Amelia and whispered:“Thank you.”“You’re welcome,” she said softly, aware that Olivia was watching her every move. Once inside the room, he made a beeline for the bed and fell asleep again. “I gotta say,” Olivia said, “that man can drink. I can’t believe he drank all that alcohol! That was an insane amount of vodka.” “I don’t know how he kept it all down,” Amelia agreed. “Especially since Rick couldn’t.” “He’s kind of a pleasant drunk, isn’t he. Most wolves I know are assholes when they drink that much.” Amelia nodded. Olivia was right; Jonathan had remained a perfect gentleman despite being really, re
My Rejected Billionaire Luna Wife Chapter 22: Brickroll Holdings
Amelia arrived at the office early the next morning. She was somewhat bothered by Olivia’s comments about Rick and the wedding, but the wedding was still a few days away. Best to focus on business right now, she told herself sternly. She only had one month to prove her worth at the company and the clock was ticking. Amelia walked down the hall. She had made an effort to be early, but there were already quite a few people there. They avoided eye contact with her, averting their eyes as she walked past. But given the werewolf’s sharp hearing, she could hear them whispering about her in the office kitchen. And they were not saying nice things… I’m determined to earn your trust and respect, she said quietly to herself. She tried not to let the harsh words and rumors hurt her, but they stung a bit. I deserve to be here. You’ll see… In her office, she took out the document that Jonathan had organized for her. It was a complicated case and she had
My Rejected Billionaire Luna Wife Chapter 23: Richard MacMillus
The hotel of Brickroll Holding was impressive, to say the least, even to Amelia who was used to the lap of luxury. She and Jonathan walked through the lavish lobby, past the cascading indoor fountain, and to the front desk where a concierge greeted them enthusiastically and guided them to the grand ballroom. “This place is amazing,” Amelia whispered to Jonathan as they walked through the ballroom. “It’s all right,” he shrugged nonchalantly. She jabbed him in the ribs. “Just all right?” she laughed and he broke out into a huge grin. At the other side of the ballroom, heavy, solid wooden doors were opened and they entered a spectacular VIP room. A decadent chandelier sparkled from above and a mahogany table sat as the centre piece of the room. A man in a posh suit rose from a leather seat when he saw them. He was round in the belly (fat if Amelia were being honest) and very short. Jonathan towered over him as he approached. “Richar

You knew you’d have to see Gabriel sooner or later, Amelia reasoned with herself while they waited for the second course. I just didn’t think it would be so soon. Even though she didn’t particularly like Richard, a trip to the wine cellar would give Amelia a brief respite from the building tension at the table. It was becoming increasingly uncomfortable trying to avert Gabriel’s glances. “That’s a very nice gesture,” Amelia said to Richard. “I’d be happy to pick out a wine for my father.” “I’ll join you,” Jonathan said quickly. Too quickly, Gabriel noticed. But Ricahrd brushed Jonathan off. “Nonsense,” Richard smiled. “There’s no need for a chaperone. We’re just going to pick out a bottle of wine. Continue eating your meal. It’s not like I’m going to eat her!” Richard laughed loudly at his own joke. No one else laughed along. “You and Gabriel can discuss business,” he said to Jonathan. “It’s a good opportunity for both of you.” J
My Rejected Billionaire Luna Wife Chapter 25: Negotiations
Amelia and Richard whipped their heads towards the door just as it broke down.It’s Jonathan, Amelia thought. He’s come to save me. Just like he did at the bar that night. But Amelia was shocked to see Gabriel. He stood in the doorway, breathing hard. The strong scent of wine wafted into the small room. Clearly, he’d broken a ton of wine bottles to make his way inside here, some of which were probably really expensive.Amelia gasped. Richard instantly let go of her, panic written all over his face.“How – how did you get in here?” Richard stammered. But then his fear and shock shifted to anger as he recognized Gabriel. “What are you doing?” Richard demanded. “You’re supposed to be my business partner? And you just barge in here? Breaking God knows how many bottles of wine?” Gabriel was breathing heavily. He’d seen how close Richard had been to Amelia. “Just bill Stormfang Incorporated. My company will pay for the wine.” Then he fixed his eyes on Amelia. “Come,” he said,
My Rejected Billionaire Luna Wife Chapter 26: An Offer They CAN Refuse
Back in her room, Amelia flopped down onto her bed. Her head was buzzing from the night’s events. Thoughts of Gabriel, Richard, and Jonathan all jumbled together. But one thought separated itself from the others – her mom. She went to her bottom dresser drawer and took out a small, velvet pouch. She had retrieved this when she’d gone back to the Eclipse Packhouse after Gabriel had rejected her. She hadn’t cared about anything else – clothes, gifts, pictures. She only cared about the contents of this pouch. She pulled out the first one. A necklace - pearls. It had belonged to her mom – a gift from her father. He’d given it to after her mom had passed. She set it aside and reached back into the pouch. The pull-tab from a pop can. Amelia smiled to herself, letting the memory wash over her. It was a warm summer afternoon, and the air was thick and still. They were sitting under a willow tree, their backs up against the trunk, relaxing in the sh
My Rejected Billionaire Luna Wife Chapter 27: Invitations and Realizations
Where the hell did that come from? Amaya thought to herself, shocked at the letter. She opened and closed her mouth a few times to speak, but she didn’t know what to say. So instead, she looked like a fish out of water trying to breathe. “I told you,” Jonathan said smugly. “It’s a personal invitation from Mandrake.” Amaya looked to Amelia. “Doesn’t mean anything,” she shrugged, forcing nonchalance. “Just because you have a meeting, doesn’t mean you’ll seal the deal.” “We’ll see,” Amelia said in a challenging tone. Amaya decided not to say anything further. Amelia still had to prove her worth at the company; she still had to prove that she could make the company better. If she couldn’t, the board of directors would surely initiate a vote to get her out of there. It was just a meeting. So what? Amaya excused herself and strut out of the office Amelia turned to Jonathan then. Truth be told, she was just as shocked as Amaya. And a little suspi
