Rejecting, My Reborn Luna!

Feast!

“Save me.. Please..” I heard someone screaming and asking for help. I curiously stared in that direction. Somebody fell into the pond, even though it did not seem deep but it was muddy at the surface. I ran to the wooden bridge passing through the pond.

“Is anybody there.. I am dying… Please save me. I don’t know how to swim.” He yelled again. His face was troubled and voice was muffled. He rapidly moved his hands and legs in a failed attempt to swim.

“Wait.. I will help you.” I looked down through the railings of the bridge. I was stunned when I saw Prince Blade. He was trying to get his head up out of the water. I was unaware of swimming, but I couldn't let him drown there. His eyes met my eyes, He made an angry expression on his face. Suddenly his tone went from helpless to commanding. He furrowed his eyebrows and pointed his finger at me.

“Hey, you little omega. What are you watching me do? Save me. I am going to die. Are you an i***t?” He screamed when he saw me standing there. He was really immature, the way he was asking for help sounded more like scolding. His screams turned into shouts and scolding. I thought about saving him without jumping into the water. He was not very old, yet he had an ego of 100 years.

“Why did you become a statue? Can’t you see me here. I am drowning.” He yelled again. I needed a stick, a big wooden stick to get him out of the pond. But there was not a single bamboo tree. No rope that I could throw in the pond and get him up.

I looked around, and he continued throwing tantrums on me. I could have jumped to save him, But I wished I knew how to swim. He was immersed in the pond. Even though he was struggling to get out, he was not able to move. the more he struggled the more he drowned, maybe the mud was sucking him in.

I heard Granny telling me, he is just 16 now and didn’t shift yet. That was the reason Alpha Finley and Luna Valda were protective about him. They couldn't even bear a single scratch on his body. I wondered how a boy protected throughout his life ended up in this pond.

“I need to save him.” I muttered to myself and immediately ran into the packhouse to get help. Everybody left for the function in the neighborhood pack. No one was around to help me. Everybody was left to visit the neighboring packhouse for some festival. Even Granny was not in the house.

I heard the sound of turning papers. I immediately went in that direction. I saw somebody sitting in the court and looking at the documents. I was only able to see his back. It was a tall man with a long head.

“He is… He is drowning.” I yelled before prince Blade disappeared from the water. That tall person was turning the pages with his slender fingers. He was fair bodied with dark hair. He turned back to look at me and I was stunned to see him. He looked like Elon, My ex boyfriend. I could not believe my eyes and pinched myself to make sure I was not dreaming.

My heart skipped a beat when our eyes met. I literally paused while looking at him. Entire thing flashed in front of my eyes. The evening when I caught him cheating and everything happened between us passed like a movie scene.

“You..” He curled his lips. He had the same facial features as Elon. As if he incarnated here along with me. I could not help but think about our time together in the human world. For a second I thought that maybe I am hallucinating again, I wanted to believe so. But it was real, he was as real as me.

“Who is drowning miss?” He asked me politely. Even he had the same voice as Elon. He gave an unknown look and I came back to my senses.

“Prince Blade.. I saw his robe floating on the pond… He might.” I stuttered as I looked over his face. My eyes were staring at his nose and eyes. I was frightened by his uncanny resemblance. I was trying to find maybe one thing, scar or any mark that makes him different from Elon. Even the beauty mole on his neck was same as the Elon I knew.

“Oh shit..” As soon as I took Prince Blade’s name he kept all the documents he was holding on the table and ran out of the packhouse. He looked so pale as if something serious was going on. I too followed him in case he needed some help.

“Blade.. where are you?” He screamed. The pond was not so big yet it was difficult to search for a man. I pointed at the left edge. A red fabric was visible on top.

He jumped in the pond and took out Prince Blade. Though I was not a big fan of him, i took a breath of relief. Prince Blade was unconscious. Water might have gone into his body.

“Blade.. Blade.. Open your eyes.” He patted the prince's face. Blade’s face turned pale. He looked quite exhausted and upset. I was scared, I knew how it felt when someone drown in the water. I still feel like I have water in my throat and lungs. Every time I breathe i make this awkward wheezing sound in my lungs. Elon took him in the packhouse.

Granny told me to stay away from them, but I just helped him. I hope Granny will understand it that I had no other choice. I can not see a man die in front of me even when I could have prevented it.

Within these two days, many things have happened. I was only facing problems again and again. I have to remember that I am not Omega Ambrose but an ordinary human Ambrose. If things get worse I have least chance of survival, even kess than Granny’s.

“You are called by the Alpha Finley.” I was called to the court again. I was scared. He was blabbering me while drowning. What if he made complaint against me? What if he suspects me? Did he say something about me? So many questions gathered inside my head. I was very nervous. I had no choice but to obey the leader's orders. I immediately ran inside.

“Your highess.. You called me.” I bowed to him again. I was scared and shaking. But I hid my nervousness and pretended to be strong. I did not want to draw any unnecessary attention towards me. Prince Blade was staring at me with aggression. I have already guessed that now I was going to be punished for what I haven't done. i jsut looked down and listened to the king.

“You ran away from the pond.” Alpha Finley asked me. I had no answer to his question. I didn’t know how to swim. I needed someone else's help and that's why I left. But i could not find the right words to say this, so I just let him talk instead of replying. “You held grudges against my son, Blade.” He asked me to keep his hands under his chin.

I knew Granny would be upset again. I could not let her hold higher’s leg because of me. I immediately held Alpha Finley’s legs to apologize. I sat down held his feets and started begging him.

“I am sorry My highness. I am really sorry.” my voice was cracking. I really meant this apology. I thought maybe apologisinf to him is a lot easier than explaining him about why can't I swim. I would never want someone to die because of me. I did not hold any kind of grudge against the prince.

“You don’t need to apologize.” A man who looked like Elon came and explained himself. My face brightened up when I saw him. He was a savior.

“She ran to call me, It’s because of her I was able to save Prince Blade. Otherwise, he would have sunk to the bottom.” He explained it very well. Even though this guy was exact replica of Elon, he felt different. His face made my heart like him even though he reminded me of Elon, He had no toxic behavior like him.

He kept his hand on my shoulder and pulled me behind. I stood next to him and stared at him with hope.

“She saved Blade.” He told everyone. His voice echoed inside the court. Everyone’s way of looking at me changed. Even Luna seemed shocked. Now instead of facing the ground I was looking at the faces of the courtiers. Some were surprised and happy while others were in disbelief.

“Prince Duncan. Are you sure?” Alpha Finley asked. I was stunned again. He was Alpha prince Duncun who was going to be the next alpha of the Blue moon pack. A prince like him taking the side of ordinary girl like me was surprising enough.

“Yeah! She is braver than we think.” He praised me. I looked at him in awe and he smiled back. It was very painful for me. Seeing him was like looking at Elon, while he is saving me from punishment, loving Elon was itself a punishment. King Finley felt bad for me as I was accused of hating prince Blade.

“Today we will have a feast, celebrating thanksgiving to Ambrose.” Alpha Finely ordered and the whole group courtiers roared. He left the court and I was qmazed by their gestures. I could see the happiness and pride in the eyes of my Granny.

As soon as everybody left, I too moved to my room. I heard a call.

“Ambrose.” I turned back. It was prince Blade.

“Thank you. You saved me. I thought it was you who pushed me in the pond.” He said smilingly. I lowered my eyes.

“Why would I do that?” I replied.

“Are you still upset with me?” He asked me. “Can we be friends?“ He gave his hands to me. I was confused, It was right that I felt so alone here that the people were unknown to me. Till now I came to know about three people, My Granny, Prince Blade and Mysterious Man last evening. But Granny told me to stay away from them.

“How can I be your friend? We are just servants of the pack..” I told him. He curled his lips. He took my hand in his hand.

“We are friends. You are my best friend.” He immediately hugged me. I was taken aback by this sudden movement but I let him hug me. I smiled back and realised that he is just a kid looking for some friends.

I started feeling the same cold chills that I felt last night. As if someone was watching me from behind. I stared around and found nothing. The breeze, the smell, and the gloomy darkness surrounding me. I pushed myself back with a sudden jerk, but thankfully Prince Blade did not notice my unusual behaviour.

“I will wait for you at the feast, Friend.” He told and left immediately. From little Omega to friend, It was progressing. i wondered how my Granny would react if she came to know about this incident and my friendship with prince Blade. I kept ignoring her warnings again and again, it made me feel bad. But I was not doing these things purposely, things like this just kept happening to me and I dont know why.

“Ambrose, wear this dress. Get ready beautifully.” It was evening and Granny asked me to wear the beautiful shiny maroon dress. "Luna asked me to pick this dress for you." Granny continued. Luna looked so impressed after I saved Prince Blade.

The dress was very beautiful. It was a big ballgown with laced deep-neck cut in front. When I wore it, I felt like I was being hugged by this elegant dress. I stood in front of the brass mirror and could not believe the charm this dress held. The dress looked as if it was especially curated for me.

“Yeah! What if you are able to see your mate?” One of packmember held my shoulder and said, Granny smiled bitterly.

I applied red rose petals powder on my cheeks and lips. They used flowers to get their faces tinted. the natural makeup worked like magic. Even the cosmetics of modern world would fail infront of the rose tint.

when I eneterd the feast everyone was dressed heavenly. Lots of people from the pack gathered there. Various kinds of dishes were prepared, especially meat. All higher ranked people were served first.

“Ambrose, thank god you came. I was just waiting for you.” Prince Blade came to me. He made me sit beside him. As an ega when I sat next to the higher ranks, I was drawing unwavering attention from the other omegas. I was a little hesitant, not because I was uncomfortable but the way other omega’s were staring at me. They had hatred against me for some reason.

“Please serve her food.” Prince Blade commanded. All the love and kindness Alpha and Luna were showering on me.

I just took a bite of a little meat. The meat was tender juicy and filled with a lot of flavours. Such an appetising meal I have never eaten in my life. Yet I excused myself from them by saying that I have finished eating and stood up.

The dance started on the dance floor. Most of the pack members were doing their clans and I just watched them in awe.

“Ambrose, You dance really well. Come with us.” Other omega’s held my hand and dragged me there. I didn't even know the D for dancing.

I just awkwardly tried to imitate other people's dance and failed. they started laughing at me. I was very embarrassed but in my defense I was peer pressured to dance.

“Ambrose, what happened to you? You were really a trained dancer.” They spoke while laughing. My rosy cheeks turned more red with the embarrassment. I just looked down and tried to hide the flush on my face. My face colour almost matched with my maroon dress.
