All Chapters of The Rejected Luna’s Rise : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Ariana Damian’s first love, Lily, suddenly returned to the pack after six long years. But this time, she didn’t come alone; she brought her pup along with her, a child whom I suspected to be my mate’s because of how he dotes on the little boy. For the past month, Damian had been finding reasons to stay away from home. Most times he’ll call me to say he had urgent pack business and needed to keep traveling from one territory to the other but I wasn’t stupid and I knew quite well he was avoiding me.However, I still hoped that today would be different because tonight was our three year anniversary. “Pheewww” I sighed, staring at the already set dinner table. I couldn’t believe that it was already three years. I mean three whole years since my mating ceremony to the Alpha of my dreams, my mate. It’s been three years and a few months since we found out that the Moon Goddess had bound us as mates but tonight marks it officially three years since our mating ceremony. I had prepared a c

ArianaBy 8 p.m., I arrived at the restaurant to see that Damian was already waiting. As always, he stood the moment he saw me, pulling out my chair with that same quiet elegance he was known for.I couldn’t deny the fact that he looked extraordinarily handsome tonight and his aura was commanding but calm. He was the kind of Alpha who didn’t need to raise his voice to remind others who led the pack.I mean he was born to lead and control and was raised as the heir to the Blood Moon Pack, trained in diplomacy and strength from childhood. I had never once heard him curse, or lose his temper. Even when he was angry, his tone stayed calm and measured, as if emotion was something beneath him.“He’s perfect in every way, except for the fact that he doesn’t love us.” My wolf whispered to me bitterly, as we watched him order for us. When the waiter left to get our food, I watched as he reached into his jacket and set a small box beside my plate. “For our third anniversary,” he said.I froze

Damian After I made sure Lily was calm and asleep, I stepped out of the room as quietly as possible. It’s been a hectic week for me, dealing with Lily and her pup and also dealing with Ariana’s troubles.I felt like there was something different about her, she seems more stiff now and not like the mate I knew who wanted to run into my arms all the time.She might just still be angry about me missing the anniversary dinner she’d prepared, after all she was nothing but a spoiled Luna.I’d make it up to her when I got home, maybe she was being cranky because we haven’t had sex of recently, after all she couldn’t stay without me. I thought to myself and smirked.I just stepped out of the ward and immediately I caught a whiff of her scent. She was here… Ariana was here but why??Oh, she must have come to see her mother. I forgot for a brief moment that her mom was still yet to be discharged by the healer. I was about to proceed walking my eyes caught sight of the bracelet on the floor.

Ariana I stirred in my sleep, my head feeling heavy and my eyes feeling so tired to open. What happened? Why was I feeling pains all over my body?I forced my eyes open and my vision was blurry for some minutes. “Mom, she’s awake” I heard someone say and I tried to force myself to sit up. Luna Loretta? What was she doing here I thought to myself. I looked at the other side of the room and Riley was there busy pouring what I assumed to be tea into a cup.“Good morning Loretta”, I greeted still wondering why Damian’s mom was visiting us so early.Gosh, my head hurts so much. What the hell happened?“Thank God you’re awake Ari,” Riley said, handing me a cup. I drank from it and immediately scrunched my face because of how bitter it tasted.“I came here this morning and met you passed out on the floor with dried tears on your face. You were burning up and your temperature was really high so I called mother.” She explained.“Yes, my child and it’s already noon no longer morning. What th

ArianaI watched as he removed his watch and placed it on the table before turning to look at me.“Why are you here?” I asked, staring back at him without blinking or shying away as usual. He looked a bit surprised but his expression quickly turned unreadable. “You’re questioning me why? I own this house in case you forgot.”Hmmmph, always so arrogant. Before I used to excuse his corkiness and arrogance as something he got from being raised in the number one family of the pack and finally getting to lead the pack himself.But now, I can't make any excuses for him. This was the kind of person he was.“You should return to wherever you’ve been spending all your time and day,” I said and turned to lie on the bed. He stayed quiet for some time and I thought he wasn’t going to bother me again but soon he joined me in bed.He slid his arms around my waist and pulled me to him. I stayed still. Too scared to breathe or move. “You’ve been cranky a lot lately, what’s wrong? Is this still abo
