All Chapters of Moonfall rejection: Vengeance of an Omega : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

CHAPTER 21LEELA'S P O VThe first thing I Felt was the cold.Not the chill of air conditioning or a cracked window but a damp, eerie kind of cold that seeped into my skin, into my bones. My head throbbed. My temples pounded. My arms... tied?Panic slammed into me like a wave. I jerked upward only to feel the soft tug of velvet ropes around my wrists. My heart skidded into my throat. Where the hell was I? I raised my back from what seemed to be a wooden chair and turned my head from left to right. All I saw was darkness and a few blinks of light shimmering from several sides of the room. It looked like some objects were reflecting lights from somewhere. I looked up but all I met was still the same darkness but I could still trace likes of the ceiling. I had no idea where I was.Then came the scent. I went stiff at once as Mikhail's scent lingered over my nose. Then cane the sound of the door opening. And my entire attention was on the entrance. My breath got caught up in my chest as h

Chapter 23Leela’s P O VI dragged myself towards the mansion, holding my stilettoes in my hand.I hadn’t even made it past the gate before I felt it -the shift. The house was still the same, grand and familiar, but something in the air had changed. Colder. Quieter.I could see that I had missed the rest of the party. Maybe the best of it. My time with Mikhail I couldn't consider the best anymore. It wasn't. The disco lights had been turned off and litters of beer mugs and papers were all over the floor.A few people were still sitting around in the dark drinking and laughing drunk in the absence of the music.I rubbed the cold off my arm and headed through the inner chamber. I had made sure to wipe my tears dry while in the cab. I didn't only wipe the tears, I pushed back Mikhail's words. I knew the implication of what I did alright. I have chosen Asher over him... I have chosen Asher....But when he said he loved me.. my heart had torn.I couldn't be so stupid enough to accept him

Chapter 25LEENAThe rhythmic clink of glass against glass echoed faintly in the quiet saloon. I stood behind the bar, hands automatically moving as I rinsed and dried each tumbler, placing them in neat rows. The scent of citrus cleaner mixed with the aged perfume of whiskey barrels and bitters. Something I had gotten used to.But my mind wasn’t here. The distraction wasn't working out.I was trapped between two men, two nights, and the ache of confusion pulsing deep in my chest.I could still feel the pressure of Mikhail’s hand on my skin. The heat in his eyes, the fire that burned between us like a fuse we both knew would explode. I hated how my body remembered him. How easy it was to fall back into that chaos, how quickly the walls I had built came crashing down the second he touched me. And even after ending it in Asher's arms, Mikhail still wasn't erased yet.I sighed sharply and deeply.But Asher...The love, the softness, the attention, the value . Eyes that saw me—truly saw me

Chapter 27Leena’s P O V"Able to get his number yet?" I asked form behind the counter as Ashley trued to go through her phone records. "Not really..." She answered shaking her two-side parted green hair."Alright. I guess we've done our part. Just lemme take the jacket, I'll keep it here. When next he comes to our club, I'll give it to him. With a safe keeping fine of course." "If he never come back, I'll take the jacket." She says as she hands it to me."So long you're willing to pay." I said and her giggles fading as soon as it started announced her departure.The warm bulbs overhead made the liquid inside glow like amber and emerald as I rolled the bottle aside. I liked this part of the shift; when the rush of customers had thinned, when the music was steady and low enough that it blended into the background hum, when my hands could keep busy while my mind wandered.And my mind, of course, kept wandering to him.I’d been trying to reach Asher since morning. Three calls and a text

Chapter 29Leela’s P O V My pulse had gone faster, even louder. Enough that Ivar could feel it. I knew. The cold around bit at my skin, urging me for what's to come. Ivar."Why aren't you gonna say thank you?" With a tone that reeked of mischief, he asked, what looked like a smirk drawing at the corner of his lips."What do you want Ivar?" I asked.Seeing him here made my stomach knot in ways I couldn’t easily name. The last time I had been this close to him, nothing good came out of it. And now here he was, appearing out of nowhere, cutting through the chaos like a blade, all to rescue me. I should have been relieved. A normal person would be. But relief wasn’t the word for what I felt. I felt Uneasy. But I had told myself that I had nothing to be scared if anymore. As long as s it had to do with Mikhail or any other thing in his pack.Instead of answering my question, he balances a hand on his hip, his brows arching finely and his lips stretching into a downward smile. "Well, it's
