All Chapters of THE REJECTED LUNA: HER MATE’S REGRET: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Deandra’s POV I was so sure that I was dreaming because there was no way that these images on my phone were real. There was no way Daniel would betray me like that, or at least that was what I told myself as I scrolled through the five pictures I had received from the unknown number. In all five pictures, Daniel was there with his childhood friend, Hope, which was nothing out of the ordinary since they were usually inseparable. Rather, it was what they were doing that was completely shocking and took my breath away. In the first picture, Daniel was caressing Hope’s protruding belly, and they both had wide grins on their faces. Again, this picture would have been completely normal if Hope wasn’t wearing a sash that read “Mom to be” around her body. Daniel had a matching sash around him too, but his read “Dad-to-be.” The second picture was even more heartbreaking and showed more evidence of what was happening in the first picture. The two of them were holding an ultrasound pict

Deandra’s POV “I told you not to come here; we can’t be seen like this.” I stopped in my tracks and hid behind a wall, wondering who Hope was talking to. “Hope, that’s my child in there, and you know it.” I gasped a bit too loudly and caught myself just in time before I was discovered. “Keep quiet,” Hope hissed and looked from left to right. This shameless woman, I thought as I listened to their conversation. I should have known the baby wasn’t Daniel’s, but he had been so confident that the child was his that I never suspected anything. “If anyone hears you, our plan will be ruined.” She looked around again before she leaned in and whispered, “I want what’s best for this child, and so do you, so why don’t you just take the money and leave?” I shook my head in disgust at that and left my position behind the wall, ready to go and confront her, when I heard footsteps coming from the opposite direction. I could practically hear Hope’s heart racing loudly in her chest

Deandra POV The human world was very different from what I thought it would be like; they were very accommodating, and I almost forgot about my species. “Andra, why are you seated here?” Ryder asked me when he got back from a business meeting. “I had a lot on my mind, so I came here to cool it off.” I replied to him as we both went into the house. It's been a very emotional period for me, thinking about the things that happened in the pack and how my once-happy family turned sour. “Are you still thinking about him?” Ryder asked as we both sat on the couch. “It's hard not to.” I replied almost immediately. The only thing that I could think of is how to get back at him for what he put me through. I want him to go through pains just like I did, and as for Hope, I'll make sure she goes through hell. “It's fine. I know it's hard for you to move on after all that has happened. I just need you to be calm.” Ryder advised me. Ryder had been the one calming me down so that I don't

Deandra POV “I got the job!” I screamed on the phone. Ryder was quiet for a moment after hearing what I said; I wasn’t expecting such a reaction from him over the phone. “Are you there, Ryder?” I asked. “Hey, it’s good news. I mean, it’s a good thing; now you can live comfortably.” He said to me, sounding very unenthusiastic. I know why he wasn’t happy, and I wasn’t going to push him to say more. He’s been trying to convince me to live with him, but I have refused, which is the reason he’s sounding like that. “Ryder, you’ve done a lot for me, even without knowing much about me, which is why I chose not to be a burden to you anymore, and see, I got the job.” I said to him, trying to convince him to be happy with me. “I understand you, Andra.” I let out a soft smile and ended the call. While heading back home, I was very excited. Stopped by the store and bought some things for myself. It felt good because for a moment I could finally forget the hurt I’ve been nursing. The

Daniel's POV “Mom!” I shouted at the top of my voice after looking around, and Hope was nowhere to be found. “Daniel, why are you calling my name like that?” She asked angrily and walked to the sitting room where I was. “Where is Hope?” My mom sat on the couch with her legs crossed; she pretended like she didn’t hear what I said. “Why are you asking me that kind of question? Am I her keeper?” My mom’s reply made me know that there was something wrong. They must have done something to her; that’s why she’s nowhere to be found. “Mom, if I find out you did anything to her, I will not be kind to you.” I said to her and walked away from the sitting room. I summoned all the maids to the sitting room. After asking them several times, no one could tell me where she was. I felt like I was losing my mind already. Just when I was about to head upstairs, I sighted her walking in with some bags. She looked dirty; even the maids looked better than her. “Hope you're not coming from look
