Semua Bab The Alpha's Rejected Luna: Mommy, Please Take Daddy Back : Bab 31 - Bab 40

ADRIAN I shook my head as I heard the secretary of the Hunter Corporation repeating the same words she had been saying for the past week. This was bullshit, crap!I'm not a child to be tossed around like a two-year-old being promised candy. This was business. I understand they're at the top and all, but on a more professional level, it is more preferable to either tell the other party—namely, me—that they don't want to collaborate, rather than stringing me along like a toy.The other day, my team waited for an hour, only to be told the CEO had just concluded a meeting and needed to rest. If it wasn't that, she needed to eat. I'm done with these humans.Who do they think they are, to make an Alpha like me their human toy?"Yes, Claire. What do you have to say this time? She's busy? She wants to eat or perhaps polish her legs? I don't care about the bullshit you have prepared. You can't keep my team and me waiting for two hours and then come back with some lame excuse. Where's the cons

"Momma, come give me a hug," my four-year-old son, Harry, chided, pulling me close for an embrace.My face lit up with a smile as I stared at the mini version of my rivalry; he had every feature of him—his eyes, his hair color. Mine was red, which I'd dyed black now. And his was jet black, just like his father. Nature really cheated me. I was the one who had all the fuss in carrying him, and yet he didn’t get to have any of my features. That’s cool, isn’t it?“You’re such a big baby,” I cooed, pulling his soft little body into mine. He was my home, my solace. And a reminder of the position I once held.I ruffled his hair. “Harry, Momma has to get to work, okay? Nana will drop you at school,” I smiled at him, referring to my grandmother, who always liked accompanying him to school even though we had a nanny and a driver. She was just the coolest.Harry's face pulled into a frown. I knew what was coming next; this little lad had always insisted I pick him up after school.“How about a c

EMILYI may not be the Luna they want me to be, but as a top model, getting an endorsement deal with Saint Management was all I needed to keep my career alive. I mean, that's a long dream come true.The last few weeks have been busy—attending their official interview and then passing it. Today was meant to mark a new beginning with them. I couldn't wait to tell Adrian about this. He would be thrilled, even though he hates me now. But I did what I did to keep my man. He was mine from the start, before Violet stole him from me.Though I didn’t mean for her to die or to go through whatever she went through, I just couldn’t stand my best friend stealing my man in just a flash. She hurt me first by marrying Adrian even though she knew we were in love. Yes, I knew he was her mate, but she knew about how crazily in love I was with Adrian, and yet she went ahead to marry him.I was hurt and betrayed. For years, it had always been just the two of us against the world. I had no relatives, and e

ADRIAN"So, it's no longer flowers? It's a date now?" Reynold narrowed his eyes at me, referring to the dinner I was going to have with Sophia Crane.I gave him a stern look. He was such a pest. "Look, it's just business. It's nothing serious," I replied, staring at my reflection in the mirror. I wasn't looking all that bad in an all-black outfit."At this point, I'm wondering if you have feelings for me. You should invest your time looking for your mate," I teased him, though I knew he was watching out for Violet.He chuckled lightly as he stood to his feet. "Even if I were gay, you'd be the last person I'd be checking out." His response got me."I'll assume you're driving there alone. I've got work to do," Reynold said, walking to the door and shutting it behind him.I grabbed the car keys, and within minutes, I was driving on the highway.Heartbeats later, I arrived at Neon Lotus. Memories flooded back, and I could only think of Violet and our last date here.Spotting Sophia Crane

Emily's POVAfter working my way for several years into Adrian's life, the last thing I wanted was for a random woman to step in at the slightest crack, and this Sophia Crane lady seemed to have a good time playing that game. Now it all made sense; I could easily tell her motive now. It was easy—she wanted Adrian, and then she backed me off from the modeling contract. Devilish was not a word I could use to compare. It was tit for tat.My fingers tapped restlessly against the steering wheel while I watched the whole scene play out in my head. Glancing at my watch, I rolled my eyes. Why did time feel so slow?A black Bentley pulled up in front of the hotel, and that was my cue to act. Unfastening my seatbelt, I set up and waited for my prey to appear."Perfect," I sighed out as soon as I spotted Sophia Crane. My lips fell into a big pout while I watched her smile at the press, her well-manicured hands waving enthusiastically as she grinned."We'll see how long that smile lasts," I scoff
