The Rejected Luna's Comeback Novels & Stories

If Negan hadn’t fallen in love with Kara, Rae would be the dead Luna. His rejection saved her, she saw that now. She couldn’t think of the rejection without associating it to her sister’s death. She made her way to the bedroom. She didn’t feel like playing the Luna, not today. She wanted to forget what she had heard and seen in Negan’s office, mostly because his actions were making her doubt her beliefs and she didn’t think that that was something that would ever happen. Accident or not, Keegan still killed Kara, who was innocent in his issue with Negan. She didn’t deserve to die. And she knew what he said, she couldn’t forget it, but she wondered if she was being dishonorable for taking his

Just present. Drax lowered his arms slow. Blood ran from a new cut on his forehead. "What are you?" he asked. His voice sounded quieter now. "I am the Rejected Luna," I said. "The one you threw away. The one who did not break." He took a step toward me. His hand reached out again but slower. "Come back with me. We can start over. The bond can be made right." I looked at his hand. For one second the old hurt came back. The pain from the clearing when he said no. The way everyone turned away from me. But the hurt did not make me small anymore. It made me steady.

"You are the person I want. I do not want anything. I just want you. I want those days that we used to have. Those days you promised that I was going to be your Luna, do you remember that?" "You mean when I was nineteen. You mean when you cheated on me with someone else, just because I was in a psychiatric clinic? I stayed there for just three months and healed up. You couldn't wait that long? Really? You just had a problem that needed immediate itch, didn't you?"

He opened his mouth, and with a voice cold and unyielding, he said the words that would shatter her world forever: “I reject you, Aria Mooncrest.” The crowd gasped in shock. Whispers rippled like wildfire through the courtyard. Aria froze, her lungs seizing as though invisible hands had wrapped around her throat. The words echoed in her skull, breaking her heart with merciless precision. “I…” Her voice cracked, barely a whisper. “You… what?” Rion stepped forward, his tone sharp, meant for the entire pack to hear. “You are unworthy to be my Luna. Weak. Fragile. A disappointment to this pack.”

“Luna, let go of your pride for a second and ask yourself. Did you come back to me because you love me? Or is it just because you saw me choose someone else? “Because I can tell you right now… it’s the latter.” Luna froze. Her lips parted, but no words came out. Because deep down, she knew he was right. She hadn’t come back to him out of love. She had come back because she couldn’t accept losing him. And if she couldn’t accept losing him now, what would happen next time? She had ignored his feelings once before. If she convinced him to come back now, what was stopping her from doing it again?

“You’re right about one thing, Lisa. We don’t understand. And we never will." Jacob grabbed the coins and headed to the counter while Carly and Flora stood up too. Without another word, they all walked away, leaving Lisa sitting alone at the table. It was then she realized the weight of the rejection but even at that, she refused to give in and let it show. She had made her choice and never would she waver or go back. ***** Lisa had barely returned to her quarters when a messenger arrived with a summons from Luna Margot. She hesitated for a brief moment before following the messenger to Luna’s chambers.

“We’ve come to see you and your Luna.” The whispers erupted again. But this time, they were not whispers of confusion. They were whispers of recognition and disbelief. The rejected mate had returned. And she was not the same girl they had cast out.

He was hesitant to speak, but said it anyway. "A former Luna?" My question came out unprecedented, I had meant to ask in my head. What the hell? A former Luna? My mate was… "Yes, more like a disgraced Luna. She was recently publicly rejected by her mate, the alpha of the Tokenmoon pack on the basis of infidelity. Finding out about her was difficult. From my sources, the last they heard of her was at an auction in a high end brothel. Her ex husband sold her to them as punishment for her infidelity."

I nodded slowly, tightening my grip on his hands, “do this for me. I know it's hard but you have t—” “I'm sorry, but I'm not going to accept his rejection.” Lisa's voice suddenly rang out, her eyes swirling with a thousand emotions. She sized me up, her eyes roaming my body, “Luna, why would you suggest such? You know how painful a rejection is. It could kill me.”

"We were lucky tonight. I don't know how much longer luck is going to be enough." Luna sat back against the cold stone, wrapping her arms around her knees, and for the first time since the Claiming Ceremony had shattered her whole life apart, she let herself simply sit with how impossible everything had become. Rejected by her mate. Betrayed by her cousin. Hunted by kingdoms. Woken by a blood moon into a bloodline that ancient, sleeping things in the earth apparently cared about.
