~~~~~Anya~~~~~

The words kept on lingering in my head even long after I had left the conference room.

I hope you should know your place now.

I hope you should know your place now.

I hope you should know your place now.

I silently kept repeating them as I walked down the hallways of Ridgewood Holdings.

Do you even know what the funny thing is? The fact that I actually really know my place, even better than anyone can think of. I knew the exact position where I stood.

  • THE REJECTED LUNA   CHAPTER 36: THAT ALPHA.

    ~~~~Anya~~~~I woke up without that pain that always crushed my mind every morning. Today, it wasn't there. The realization alone came slowly, because now, there was no Ridgewood or Meena or even Kane. Just silence. A very peaceful silence. I just remained lying on the bed and staring at the ceiling of our new apartment for several seconds, allowing the feeling to settle down inside me. A small smile quietly found its way onto my face. You know, it actually felt strange smiling like this. Like, not forcing it, not pretending or wearing it like a mask. The apartment wasn't luxurious, and it wasn't the type of place Alpha's lived in. But this is ours. Mine and Talia's. And that thought alone made it more valuable than any room I had ever occupied in Ridgewood.I slowly sat up on the bed and stretched as the sunlight pouring through the window warmed my skin. I could already hear the distant traffic from outside, human voices, car horns, just normal voices. No wolves. No Alpha commands t

  • THE REJECTED LUNA   CHAPTER 35: HIS DECISION.

    ~~~~Talia~~~~When I actually realized that something was definitely wrong with Anya wasn't when she accepted Kane's rejection. It wasn't even when she walked away from Ridgewood, and it wasn't even when with a teary face and voice full of pride, when she told Alpha Kane she'd survive without him. Not at all.The moment I watched her collapse into unconsciousness in the arms of a complete stranger was the very first time real fear gripped me.Even now as I'm seated on the edge of the hotel bed while the morning sunlight poured through the curtains, I could still vividly recall that moment. From the restaurant, to the rogues, to that fight and the way Anya had moved, the way she had looked and the way power had radiated off her body. I wrapped my arms tightly around myself as an instant chill ran down my body. Something about that night still didn't sit right at all. I knew that Anya had always been brave, protective, kind and even stubborn. But a fighter? Not at all! Not like that ag

  • THE REJECTED LUNA   CHAPTER 34: NO DEMANDS

    ~~~~Anya~~~~The moment I turned and found out that Talia was actually following me, a wave of satisfaction flushed over me. I didn't look back, not once and not even when I heard Talia kept calling my name. Not even when my legs felt weak. I just kept walking. The sun from the afternoon hung high as we walked down the unfamiliar road. Several cars moved past us. Humans filled the sidewalks. And strangely, the scent of wolves was getting thin. That actually comforted me in many ways. Because now, I wasn't surrounded by pack members who always whispered behind my back. I wasn't surrounded by those wolves who stared at me with pity or surrounded by people who knew I was a rejected mate. Here on this unknown street, I was simply a nobody, and for once, being a nobody felt normal and peaceful. Talia kept walking quietly beside me. Which was so unusual. Because Talia, normally, would be talking. Laughing. Complaining. Or making fun of someone or something. But now as she remained silent

  • THE REJECTED LUNA   CHAPTER 33: NO MORE TRUSTING ALPHAS.

    ~~~~Anya~~~~Softness.That was the first thing I felt the next moment I regained myself. This was nothing compared to the hard mattress in my room from Ridgewood. Not that cold floor I had spent my nights crying on after Kane's rejection. This felt different. Too comfortable. Warm. As my consciousness slowly returned to me, I felt my brows knitting together without me even controlling them. My entire body felt so heavy almost as if someone tied huge stones to every part of my body. To even open my eyes felt like a very difficult task. A groan escaped my lips, that was when I finally struggled to pull my eyes open.My jaw dropped, and for a moment, I just stared at the ceiling. Beautiful. Elegant. White and golden. It did nothing but deepen my confusion. I blinked several times, because this wasn't my room and this didn't look like Ridgewood, then I slowly turned my head. The room completely looked like something out of this world. Luxurious curtains stretched from either side of the

  • THE REJECTED LUNA   CHAPTER 32: ROAD BEYOND.

    ~~~Anya~~~~When I walked away from Ridgewood, it wasn't like the pain had ended for real… if anything, it actually grew worse. Each step with Talia beside me felt as if a piece of me was being ripped away and left like nothing behind on the ground.The bond was finally gone. Truly gone, not hidden or buried under fury or humiliation, but truly gone. The realization settled deep inside my chest like a block of ice. I'd pictured what exactly it'll look like to stand beside my mate for years. To really belong somewhere. To happily have a place in the world that was mine. But now, I got the opposite. I now know what it really felt like to lose something precious to you even before you ever had it.The breeze from the evening brushed against my skin as Talia tightened her grip around my waist. I wasn't sure if she was stopping me from collapsing or if she was supporting me. Or perhaps both. The pack house slowly disappeared away from us at our back. I didn't look back. Not at all. Becaus

  • THE REJECTED LUNA   CHAPTER 31: OBJECTION MY LORD.

    ~~~~Meena~~~~I turned my back and stormed inside the pack house. As I held my hands still on my cheek… the sting on it refused to fade. I could still feel the imprint of Talia's hand burning against my skin. As anger rushed through me, I couldn't help but dug my nails onto my palms. Nobody had ever dared, not when I was a warrior back home, not when I had already become Kane's mate! And certainly not even now that I stand beside the Alpha of Ridgewood pack as his Luna. Yet, in front of everyone… Talia had dared to slap me. Right In front of the pack members. Right in front of those wolves who were meant to bow their heads whenever I appeared. Humiliation clawed above my chest. I pushed the door to Kane's study so hard that the sound hammered against the walls. The sound echoed through every angle of the room, making Kane to immediately look up from the documents that were spread across the desk before him. His brows furrowed instantly. “What happened?” The concern his voice carried

    ~~~Anya~~~The next morning felt colder than usual. It wasn't because of the weather, but because of the place I'm headed to. Sterling Corporation—Ridgewood Holdings, stood tall before me. Its glass exterior was reflecting the early morning sunlight as if nothing, not even the air in it had changed.

    ~~~Anya~~~Maybe it was just me. But the air felt heavier than usual the moment I stepped out of Sterling Corporation. My heels clicked softly against the pavement as I walked past the glass doors and tried to ignore the whispers that followed me out of the building like shadows.“They said Alpha K

  • THE REJECTED LUNA   CHAPTER 4: TOO CLOSE. TOO FAR.

    ~~~ANYA~~~ I cried, letting my tears mix with the warm water from the shower as the two liquids intertwined, rolling over my body. I had locked myself unsure of how I could make myself stop and look for a solution inside the bathroom in my new bedroom cage, as he said—not far away from the Alpha’s

  • THE REJECTED LUNA   CHAPTER 3: FROM MATE TO PET

    ~~~KANE~~~ A long crushing silence stretched the very moment I had recognized Meena as my mate and not Anya. The crowd exhaled. I turned to the crowd, my voice booming, “I reject the union between Anya and me. The moon goddess doesn't have to tangle me with a broken and cursed wolf. I know what's
