"I don't know either," he said, his brows furrowing. "She just walked in and started moving like a snake."

He motioned for me to sit on the couch, then took off his suit jacket and sat down himself. I hesitated, still trying to process everything. Should I go after her and ask for an explanation, or just stay and sit down?

I shook my head and without saying another word, I turned and walked out of his office, my steps quick and determined. I scanned the hallway, trying to figure out where she might have gone. Then it hit me, she could be in the women's bathroom.

That wasn’t like her. The Mimi I knew would never act this way. There had to be a reason. I couldn’t believe it. And the bigger question remained, what was she even doing in this city?

My phone rang from inside my bag. I pulled it out and saw Giovanni’s name on the screen. I answered right away.

"When are you free? I’d love to visit and discuss something with you," he said.

"Gio, I’m at the company right now, but I’ll b

  • Rejected And Betrayed: Chasing My Luna Back.   204. The stare.

    JOHNWhat made it worse was that there was no fence or gate. No walls. Nothing to keep anything out. Just that weak old house, sitting wide open to the forest, like it had already stopped trying to protect itself.I couldn’t help but feel sorry for whoever lived there.I walked up to the door and knocked twice. The wood felt rough and worn under my knuckles. There was no answer. I stood still, listening. All I could hear was the wind moving through the trees. I knocked again, this time a bit harder.Then I heard something, a curtain moving on my left side.“Hey,” Solomon said quietly, motioning for me to come over with a tilt of his head.I stepped down and walked slightly to the left side. A wrinkled hand pulled the curtain aside, and behind the dusty glass, I saw a face, an old man, eyes narrowed like he wasn’t sure what to make of us.“How may I help you?” he asked, his voice dry and slow.I took a step closer and gave a small wave. “Um... sorry to bother you, sir. We’re looking fo

    JOHNSolomon eased off the gas, knuckles white on the steering wheel.“Should I stop the car?” he asked, voice low, eyes flicking to the rear-view mirror. I leaned forward, heartbeat drumming in my ears, squinting at the sedan ahead. Was that really her?The woman’s silhouette shifted, then she half-turned as though checking us, glossy hair spilling over one shoulder.Beside me Evelyn tapped the window with a restless finger. “But why is she even here in the first place?” she breathed, forehead creasing. I shook my head, “Keep going,” I muttered. Solomon nodded, jaw tight, and the engine growled as we rolled past, tires humming over the road while the stranger’s taillights glimmered.Evelyn rested her head against my arm,as she looked at the computer, then lifted her eyes to mine. “What if we slip onto a side street?” she breathed, voice thin with hope. Then she added, “If that’s Diane up there, Benjamin’s sitting right beside her.” The idea struck hard, but I didn't respond becau

  • Rejected And Betrayed: Chasing My Luna Back.   202. Diane?

    She slowly woke up, her eyelashes fluttering open. The first thing she saw was John, sitting close by, quietly watching her. He had clearly been awake for a while, his eyes looked tired and heavy.Her eyebrows pulled together as she looked around the unfamiliar room. Confusion showed on her face. Then she turned her head and was taken aback as John was still staring at her. That’s when the panic hit.She looked down and gasped, quickly pulling the sheet over her bare breasts. Her hands were shaking. A sharp pain between her legs made her remember what had happened yesterday.John broke the silence.“Hey, you can’t deny it this time,” he said in a low, almost smug voice.She looked at him, eyes wide. “Deny what exactly?”He let out a bitter laugh and stood up from the bed as she looked at his names body as his dick standing like he was controlling himself while she was asleep.“Wow… aren’t you even a little ashamed of yourself?” She quickly threw the covers over her face, hiding behin

  • Rejected And Betrayed: Chasing My Luna Back.   201. His touch.

    "Shhh..." he whispered, close to her ear.Evelyn swallowed hard, her body going still. Her mind went blank as his hands slid up her breasts. Then he cupped her breasts, his fingers brushing over her nipples as he twisted it hard.She winced, eyes squeezing shut at the sharp sensation.But before she could speak, his warm breath drifted across her neck, it was calming the sting like a balm. Her chest rose and fell in rhythm with his, the tension slowly shifting into something deeper.Then she felt a soft, wet trace of his tongue on her neck, a gasp escaping her lips as he followed the curve of her neck, tasting her skin, before finding the edge of her ear.A soft moan slipped from her throat."John..." she breathed, trembling between surrender and hesitation.“Mmm…” John murmured, his voice a low hum as his lips traveled slowly along her skin. Evelyn winced slightly, her eyes fluttering shut, her mouth parted in a quiet gasp.He turned her gently to face him, their eyes locking for a h

    "What if it was the spirit that helped me?" Evelyn said quietly, thinking out loud.John rolled his eyes and shook his head. "Let’s just go. Stop saying things that don’t make sense," he replied.A few minutes later, they were all on the black bus. Solomon was driving, taking them to the nearest hotel. The ride was quiet, with only the soft hum of the engine in the background.Evelyn sat at the back, watching Paulo, who was completely focused on a game on his laptop. She frowned, not sure how to talk to him. Paulo was the kind of guy who only did something if the boss told him to."You’ve been staring at me for a while," Paulo said suddenly, still looking at his screen. A small grin appeared on his face. "What’s up? Starting to fall for me or something?"Evelyn gave him a hard look. "You’re not even close to my type," she said plainly.Paulo smirked and finally looked at her. "You sure about that? I treat you better than the boss does. Just say the word, and I’ll be the best boyfriend

    “No wonder I felt like someone was choking me… and then it just stopped,” She rubbed her hands other neck as she gasped.“A vengeful spirit stopped?” John said sharply, glancing nervously around the shadowed trees.Evelyn swallowed hard. “And this… this is where Bea was last seen. Please don’t tell me it killed her.”Her heart pounded in her chest. She glanced left and right, eyes blurring with tears as a cold fear settled over her, the fear that the spirit had already consumed Bea.“Calm down, Evelyn,” John said, placing his hands gently on her shoulders. “I think we should get out of here.”But she wasn’t listening. John had no choice but to grip her hands firmly.Suddenly, a lightning strike split the sky, followed by a violent gust of wind that knocked everyone to the ground everyone except Evelyn."Help me..." a thin, mournful voice whispered, carried by the restless wind. It wasn’t coming from anywhere nearby, it seemed to come from the air itself, as if the wind had learned ho
