Semua Bab The Alpha's Rejected Luna: Mommy, Please Take Daddy Back : Bab 51 - Bab 60

Waking up to see Adrian by my side was relieving. He might be the person I hated the most, but for now, I wanted his solace.His hands wrapped around me, comforting me. I felt safe. I felt relieved. And all I could think about was us—why did he leave me, and why was he cheating on me with Emily? He had cared for me, even though he hadn't, for one day, declared his love for me. I was satisfied with his affection and how he cared about me.But why all of a sudden? I felt the heartache returning all over again. It was like yesterday, even though it had been years.And then, "Why did she leave?" The question came out before I could even stop myself.He stilled, and I noticed. The look in his eyes softened, his gaze directed to the ceiling.My heart melted the moment he said he missed me. If he does, then why did he do that?Of course, I knew it wasn't proper for him to talk about another woman when he was with me. Even though I was hiding under a facade, I still had to shun him."You're t

I scoffed, opening the letter that was attached to it. My eyes widened as I read the text.“Look around, I’m coming for you,” the text read. The anger that was once coursing through me came to a halt. I felt my gut tighten—someone was threatening her. The nerve of that person! No one touches what's mine.Ares growled, and suddenly wanted to take charge of the situation. She might be my ex-wife, but our mate bond wasn’t entirely broken. I had done the rejection, but she hadn’t rejected me back.She frowned. “What’s wrong?” Her eyes narrowed at mine as she asked, curiosity piquing in her gaze.“Someone out there is after you,” I stated, anger washing through me. Whoever it was needed to get through me first. I would protect her with everything in me.My fist clenched, squeezing the flowers without even realizing it. Who knows—they might be poisoned. I knew she was a top influential person and would, of course, have enemies. But Violet was too fragile for all this. She might be trying to

Ever since my return to the pack, I had been restless. Of course, I had to be. I intended to call off the guards I had put in place to search for Violet, to pull back their search. But I knew it would seem suspicious, and I wanted it to be just between Reynold and me. Until I found a way to convince her.Dad was going back tomorrow, and now it was just me and the pack. I couldn’t thank him enough for watching over the pack while I was away. It seemed he was an even better Alpha than I was because no other deaths had been recorded.“You’re not sleeping yet?” Emily’s voice brooded over in the dark.What the hell is she doing in my room? Ares was growling. Of course, we hated her.“Have you signed the divorce papers yet?” I tossed at her, standing on my feet. My room was dark, but I was staring into her eyes, reading her every expression. Even at night, I could see clearly.She blinked. Once. Twice. Thrice. And then her face pulled into a chuckle. This is no joke... My teeth were grittin

Turning my face away from Adrian, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease wash over me. I was very grateful for the interruption when the door creaked open, my heart skipping a beat as Xavier and Grandma Charlotte stepped into the room."Grandma!" My face lit up with a smile as she walked in. A sad look passed across her face, and she tried to play it cool by smiling.Xavier's eyes locked onto Adrian for a moment. His gaze swept over the room but not before scanning him with an intensity that made my skin tingle. It was clear he didn't fancy Adrian's presence one bit. His lips were set in a hard line; for a moment, I thought I saw a possessive look in his eyes, but I immediately brushed it off.But wait, isn't that look... Does that mean he is jealous? Xavier is jealous? Oh my! I had thought he had zero interest in me, like the way he always played it cool, like we were siblings.Adrian's expression was bold and daring, his face twisted into a scowl. His eyes flashed with anger whi

I paced outside Violet's hospital room, my mind racing with worst-case scenarios. How could I have let this happen? I should have protected her better. These thoughts were relentless, ramming through my mind. I don't know how long I paced anxiously around the door when a slow creak caused my whole body to jerk. I first saw the white coat, and then Dr. Stanley's full figure emerged through the narrow opening.He had a small smile on his face, one I suspected would grow into a chuckle, as he said, "You can go in now, Mr. Wolfe. But make sure you don't disturb her; she's still recovering.""Thanks," I said, and with a small nod, I was left with the sound of his shoes echoing down the hall and the slightly opened door in front of me.Wiping my clammy hands against my trousers, I gently pushed the door open and was relieved to find her sleeping peacefully. Violet lay motionless, her hair fanned out on the pillow, her porcelain skin illuminated by the soft glow of the hospital lights.Takin
