Waited For The Luna
Chapter 24

“I’m not going back to your pack and I don’t need any of your protection. So if you could please step away from the door.” I then felt like a surge of vomit in my stomach and retched.

“Bellamy, can you please calm down. We’ll let you out, only if you sober up, okay? I’ll let the boys back to their rooms” I trusted Macy so I let her do as she pleased. The boys then went up to their rooms, except for Luka who was standing by the counter.

Macy then took me to an empty room and helped me get into the shower. Her clothes were too tiny for me, so she got me a mens’ white shirt and some gym shorts. I felt better after my shower. When I got down, Luka was cleaning up my vomit. Great! Way to get things more awkward between us.

Macy sat me on one of the stools and served me some noodles.

“I think you guys should talk. ” Macy said. I shooked my head because I didn’t want to. My anxiety spikes up when we speak to each other, plus he was cleaning my vomit which made things much worst.

“Please don’t leave me. Why don’t we catch up for a little? “

“None of the boys know that you’re mates. The pack urges Luka to take a Luna but he’s still waiting for you. Bellamy, don’t keep leading him on and talk to him about breaking the mate bond. ” My head was hurting at the sound of that. For 4 years I haven’t heard those terms. Mates, Alphas, packs, wolves. None of those. I’ve been around humans all these time, forgetting that I am a different creature.

Macy then went to leave. I then heard footsteps walking. I instantly knew who it was. He stood at the place Macy previously occupied.

“I’m not going back. ” I told him, keeping my head down while slurping my soup.

“I won’t force you to come back. ” He replied. I was a little stunned.

“Then why did you brought me here?” I asked.

“I’m not gonna let you go back half-naked and drunk. ” He coldly said.

“Luka, it’s been long. We should get onto it. ” I said standing up from my stool.

“No, Bellamy. I told you before I can’t. Don’t even mention it. ” He said gritting his teeth. He was still reluctant to do it.

“I’m never coming back, Luka! The pack needs a Luna, you need a Luna. If you keep this going on, you’re gonna suffer.”

“Well it’s not your pack and not your alpha, so why should you bother. “

“Okay fine, I’ll do it. I, Bellamy Cross, reject you, Luka… ” I suddenly felt stinging on my throat, it’s not like I couldn’t do it. But the thought of it felt painful. This must be how he was feeling. “White, alpha of the White Moon Pack as my mate. Do you accept?” I continued, every word stinging me. It feels like I didn’t really want to do it at all.

“I don’t. ” My face fell, he then walked to the living room.

“Then f**k you! “

“Can you calm down, Bellamy? This is the best revenge you can have. You want to hurt me, fine sleep with other men, get married, do whatever you want. But I’m not rejecting you. That’s my only decision. I’m not forcing you into a relationship with me if you don’t want to. But I’m not giving up. You want to run away the door is open. Just don’t get yourself killed.” His words felt painful. I wanted to hug and k**s him, but being a stubborn stupid girl, I decided to just spat useless words.

“Well, can you take me to my hotel? It’s dark and I don’t know the way.” Dumb dumb dumb. That was the best thing I can think of. I could seriously call a concierge for a service, but I craved a little more attention from him.

“Why don’t you call hotel service. I’m a little tired.” Okay. I am speechless. But I brought this to my dumb self, so might as well just get on with it.

“My phone is dead. Do it as a kind gesture to your mate. “

“Guilt-trip.” He then walked out and went straight to the car, I followed behind. The drive was silent and boring, so I fished out my phone to play.

“Phone is dead, huh?” He chuckled.

I got caught red-handed. Embarrassed, I didn’t say another word and ignored him. He should feel happy I’m making an effort to make him stay.

He then pulled up in front of the hotel and opened the door for me.

“When are you flying back?” I asked.

“A day after tomorrow. You?” I walked slowly to try and prolong his stay.

“I booked my tickets back earlier. I need to pack my stuff and move out of my ex’ house.”

“Oh, Bellamy can I ask you something.” He said halting his walk. “Did you love him?”.

“He was good company. He was funny and sweet, actually. But he’s a little messy at home which makes me agitated. ” I answer honestly. He laughed after I answered. ‘I can never love him when I loved you’ those thoughts ran through my head. I never admitted it to myself until today. When I realized I didn’t want him to leave.

“You ever thought about me in the past 4 years? ” He said looking at me with his golden-brown eyes.

I sighed before answering “Of course I did. You are my mate after all. What I do affects you.”

He then went near me and leaned into my forehead.

“I never stopped thinking about you. All-day and all night. I can’t think about anything, my thoughts were all of you. Everything I did beautifully, I did for you, thinking that one day you’d come back and realize that you are meant to be with me. ” He said closing his eyes with tears in his eyes. “I’d do anything to be the one to put you to sleep at night and to see first every waking day. If you can, If you would allow it, come back home with me. I promise I will never make you cry. ” He cupped my cheeks, I thought he was going to k**s me but he pulled back.

If I did come back with him, I wouldn’t be able to go to med school. I wouldn’t have a stable career. If I become Luna, I would have to dedicate all my life to the pack and to him. We’ll then need to marry and have kids. I looked at him and I didn’t saw the man who purposely hurt me, I saw someone who has aged beautifully in the past 4 years. On the other hand, if I waited 4 more years, the mate bond may feel devoided. I weighed my decision carefully.
