How to reject a Luna

Chapter 16

*Sebastian POV*

Willow hardly texted me back today and Tobias has been MIA. I can't seem to contact him at all. It's been such a weird day, so I was nearly surprised to get the phone call from Willow. I went and tortured the rogues a bit just to let them know they weren't safe and we hadn't forgotten about them.

When I picked Willow up I was not expecting this. I am not complaining in any way but still. Her desperation and need apparent. But I have missed her just as much. I feel like I need to be around her protecting her giving her what she needs. Right now she needs this and I am not going to deny her that. Especially when I want it just as bad as her.

Her body instantly relaxes as she climaxes. Her lips leave mine. Her forehead sitting on my shoulder. I just hold her. Hold her like I never want to let her go. Hold her like I want to protect her from whatever she is feeling, protect her from everything bad in this world.

We sit in the car for an hour in the same position just holding each other tightly, before she finally gets back in her seat, I don’t hurry her, I like embracing her, I like breathing her scent and I am in rush to get anywhere.

I drive off and then hold her hand while we drive. She intertwines our fingers and then puts her other hand over the top of my hand. I feel so happy. I keep looking at her. I am so glad to have her in my life. The moonlight reflects through the window on her pale skin. Her hair so thick luscious, and shiny it seems to glimmer in the white light, giving her an ethereal vibe. I can't read the expression on her face as she looks out the window.

"Willow?"

She looks at me but doesn’t speak.

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"No, I just want to enjoy the night with you, is that okay?"

"Of course it is, I am here if you want to talk about it"

"I know"

She smiles so sweetly and gives my hand a squeeze. I smile. It fills my heart to see her smile. I pull up at the front of the house.

"You live here?"

"Yeah, a big bunch of us do"

"Ohh it's a beautiful building"

I won’t argue with that, the pack house is an impressive structure, sometimes I forget as I have seen it all my life.

"It is"

"Do you want to meet everyone or just head to bed?"

"Just head to bed I think, I hardly slept last night"

I nod and jump out of the car and open her door for her helping her out of the car. I grab her bag and take her hand and walk inside. Luckily there aren't too many people around any way so we just walk in. I see Dave as we walk in.

'Have you seen Tobias yet?'

He looks back at me and shakes his head. He sees Willow and smiles. He starts to say something to her, but I shake my head at him and he stops, no doubt it was going to be dirty and I am not sure if she is in the mood for that.

Plus I selfishly just want to put her in my bed not reminisce on a night that has passed.

*Tobias POV*

I have run for over 24 hours straight. I am exhausted. I don't feel any better but I feel somewhat calm, I feel calm enough to walk into the house and not take out my wrath on anyone and everyone. I shift at the door and put on some spare shorts that I always keep there. 2 pups are running around spraying deodorant like they are guns or something. I growl.

"What are you 2 still doing up? Get home immediately"

"Yes Alpha"

They run out the door and back towards their house. I grab some food from the kitchen and go to head upstairs. Dave is on the couch.

"Sebastian has been worried about you"

"Where is he?"

"In his room, but I would say he is a bit busy right now"

"Busy?"

"I saw him walking in with his girl"

A smile creeps across my face.

"Ohhhh busssy"

I laugh and he laughs. I walk upstairs and pause at Sebastian's door. I can hear soft moans and growls coming from inside. I smile but my wolf stirs. Maybe I need to get laid, I have never had my wolf stir like that hearing someone fvck.

'Sebastian I know you busy but I am home'

'That is ahhh ummm good ahhhh see you tomorrow'

'Enjoy yourself'

I don’t expect an answer, I wouldn’t answer in the same situation. I walk up to my room and collapse on the bed and eat. After I finish eating I lay staring at the ceiling. I am exhausted yet I can't sleep. I look at the time and I wonder if I could go to Willow now. I just want to hold her. It is the only thing that will heal my broken heart. Why did I say that? Why did she say it back? Did it hurt her as much as it hurt me?

I just lay uncomfortably, the bed feels like it is made of nails. It is wrong to go to her, I know it is wrong so I suppress the urge. I need to learn to live without her. I was wrong to ever bend and go to her at all, if I ignored the bond resolutely from the start I probably wouldn’t be feeling like this now.

I must have fallen asleep at some point I don't know when, I laid awake for hours my mind filled with the red haired beauty. I look at the time. It's is already 9:30 I feel absolutely terrible, I think I would feel better if I didn’t sleep at all. I drag myself out of bed and stand in the shower looking at my feet, letting the hot water run down my back, no matter how hot the water is, it isn’t enough to warm my cold heart.

I have never had such an urge to cry in my life. Tears start falling once they start they start flowing so heavily I can't stop them. I collapse on the ground and just cry. Just let it all out. I cant remember ever crying in my life, now I am not sure if I can ever stop.

I finally pull myself together enough that I can stand back up, I turn off the water as I hold the wall to stabilize myself.

I shake my head. Pull yourself together Tobias. When have I ever been so brittle? I hate feeling like this, I have responsibilities, I need to lead I have no time to fall apart.

I dry myself and get ready for the day. I walk down stairs and I nearly get to the bottom of the stairs. I look up to the most beautiful sight in the world. She looks straight at me. Did she come for me? How does she know where I live? Does she want me? A look of shock spreads across her face. I am equally shocked, I am pleasantly surprised until I realize, with that expression she didn’t come for me, I don’t think too much about it before asking.

"What are you doing here?"

She counters straight away.

"What are you doing here?"

"I live here"

She just looks at me and walks into the kitchen. I stand 3 steps up just gripping the hand rail. What happened? Why?

I suddenly start to put the pieces together.

*Willow POV*

I hardly slept, even wrapped in Sebastian’s arms. It didn't matter how much he fvcked me, I didn't feel better in my heart, just the rest of my body felt better, but it didn’t heal the rift in my heart, that dull never ending ache.

He really is good at what he does, I have no complaints at all about that. We shower together. He is so sweet and caring washing me thoroughly, his large hands caressing me and his large arms holding me, I feel so safe with him, I know with time he will heal all wounds, it is just at the moment it is just a bit raw and that is why he isn’t having the instant effect that I was hoping for. He speaks as his fingers rn through my thick wet hair.

"Do you want to go down for breakfast?"

He kisses down my neck and along my collarbone, I am slightly breathless as I reply, tipping my head back to allow better access.

"Sounds good, what are we having?"

"What ever you want, I will make it for you"

That brings me out of my stupor as I stare at him with wide eyes.

"You cook?"

"I am not fantastic but you won't die."

I laugh, that is about the description of my own cooking skills, well maybe I am a little bit better than that, but I wouldn’t dare say that because then I might miss my chance to see this handsome man in the kitchen.

"Sounds good"

I look in the mirror before we walk out. I just went for some simple denim shorts and a black tank top and some black converse, I was a bit lost yesterday, not really paying much attention to what I was throwing in the bag. I am nervous about meeting all Sebastian’s friends so I am hoping that I look acceptable. We walk into the kitchen and he busies himself in the kitchen. I can’t help but have a big smile on my face watching someone that muscular and handsome cooking is such an amazing yet somewhat amusing sight. I feel my pocket.

"Sebastian I left my phone in your room, I will just go grab it"

His eyes flick to me with a gentle smile on his face.

"Do you remember how to get there?"

This house is rather large so I am not surprised that he asked me, but his bedroom is one of the most prominent and obvious ones so I think I should be able to get back there without a guide, I would feel bad disrupting him from his creations anyway.

"I think so, I will be back in 5"

I just watch him a little longer. I love watching him. He looks up and gives me a big smile, his blue eyes glittering and his handsome face lights up with the smile, it is hard not to smile back when I see something that beautiful. I walk out of the kitchen area toward the stairs and freeze, my whole body freezes, my mind explodes, I just hear a faint buzzing as I am faced with the person that I don’t want to see the most, yet strangely my heart skips a beat when I see him.

It is him, it is Tobias, it is beyond a surprise, I would say it is bordering on shock maybe pushing more toward horror. What is he doing here? He is the last person on this earth that I wanted to see. Yet he is the only person that I wanted to see. He snaps me out of my daze by saying.

"What are you doing here?"

His eyes connected with mine. I feel the tears are going to start again. I snap myself out of it. I won't let it show that he affected me. He won’t win. I snap in as harsh voice as I can muster, trying to hide my hurt but even I can hear the audible quiver in my voice.

"What are you doing here?"

"I live here"

He lives here? I have to get away before he sees my tears. I quickly walk back into the kitchen and walk straight to Sebastian. I wrap my arms around him. He holds me.

"What's wrong?"

He pulls my chin up to look at me. He pressed his lips softly to mine. Suddenly the door of the kitchen smashed open. I mean smash in every meaning of the word. Pieces of timber going flying everywhere. I look at the door and Sebastian holds me close. Tobias stands in the doorway absolutely seething. The veins in his neck are pulsing and he looks like he is ready to kill someone, his knuckles are crackle from being clenched into fists so tightly. Sebastian holds me closer in a protective way, he looks at the door and says.

"What the fvck Tobias?"

He knows Tobias? He holds me closer to his chest but I can still see Tobias, his eyes look black and his face is so twisted with anger that he looks ferocious.

"Sebastian is this your girl? Is Willow your girl?"

"Yes she is"

Tobias walks over to us and rips us apart he glares at me, he looks like he is about to murder me the next second but I don’t shy away from that look, I just stare back defiantly. He says through gritted teeth.

"Get the fvck out of my house now, you b***h"

Sebastian rips out of his grip.

"She isn't going anywhere"

He stands in front of me protecting me, I look at Sebastian’s strong back in front of me but it is like I can still feel Tobias’ fierce glare through the mass of muscle in front of me.

I am somewhere between furious and hurt. I don’t know what to think, I am not sure what to do. I didn’t actually want Sebastian to get in a fight with him, if they live in the same house, are they friends?

But the large kitchen is suddenly feeling very claustrophobic as the 2 large figures face off.
