Rejecting, My Reborn Luna!

Happy birthday!

I hesitated and took my legs back. I was scared that I would be a laughing stock but I was more scared about getting exposed that I am no longer the same Ambrose. I thought it was better to sit quietly and turn around. Suddenly someone kept his hands on my waist. I was pulled to that robust chest again. The strong smell of sandalwood appeared again.

I turned my head up, Those green eyes behind the mask sparkled. He was wearing black mask but his eyes, I knew it was him.The same mysterious man I met deep inside the woods. The one who saved me from the pack of enemy wolves. The man whose face has been haunting my dreams ever since. I was stunned to see him at the feast. My heart raced fast as soon as our eyes met. I could hear my own heart beating. Everytime I breathed, I could feel a gust of his strong fragrance flowing inside my lungs. This time I was not hallucinating, I was sure of it.

“You..” I was baffled. He suddenly entered our territory. He could be a spy. “How are you here?” I asked him. I looked around. Alpha Finley and Luna Valda were enjoying the feast. They looked so happy. I didn’t want to spoil their feast.

“Just dance silently.” He told me and pulled me closer to him. His fingers were holding my waist fiercely as if he was going to snatch my flesh.He held me tighter than he did last time.

“Who are you? Why are you appearing in front of me again and again.” I asked him. I was curious because I was way too attracted to him. Everytime he came closer to me, My heart raced. I was not able to see anything around me except from him. His scent completely occupied my mind for the whole day. He has been in my dreams, in my thoughts and even in my vision since the first time I saw his godlike face. He may have hid that lavish face behind a mask, but I was able to see through his guise.

He looked into my eyes and came even closer. Our noses almost touched, I could hear him breathe over my face. His grip on me was not loosening, I too held on to him as I was scared of tripping while dancing in that huge maroon gown.

“If you are curious, why don’t you find it yourself?” He whispered in my ears. I got goosebumps. The violin’s music was playing loudly. Suddenly, I felt like I was in a dream. The only thing I could hear was his voice, The only thing I could see was his face. I forgot about my surroundings and felt like we are the only two in this world. Just the two of us, dancing under the bright light, with hand in hand, holding each other tight.

He held my hand and moved my body roughly. I danced rhythmically along with him to the music that now seemed distant. My body may be moving to the tune, but my soul was somewhere else along with him. I regained consciousness to the compliments I have been receiving.

“Ambrose.. Looks like she is back to her old self now.. Wow..” My friends started complimenting me. Even though I was dancing really well, it was him who was moving my entire body the way he wanted. It has only been a few minutes since we were dancing together, but in my mind an eternity had passed. Even when I tried to look around the feast, my eyes refused to leave his eyes and we kept staring through each other.

He was leaving his heavy breath on my face, sometimes on my shoulder. He was rolling me round and round. His eyes were getting narrow as if they were going to kill me.

“What do you want?” I asked him. His face made me puzzled. I was feeling weird when he was around.

“You.” He said in his husky voice. I froze. My breath turned faster than ever. “You have no wolf.. What are you doing in the Blue Moon Pack?” He asked me. I was shocked. Nobody in the entire packhouse knew this. It was my biggest secret from now on. But this man who just met me once a few days ago got to know about it. How?

“How can you.. You are a spy. Shall I scream and tell everyone.” I told him. His eyes became small.

“Then I will tell them, you are from a different community.” He whispered again, but this time with a grin on his face.I stared at him with ugly eyes and gritted my teeth in frustration. I wanted to smack his face for revenge, But even in my imagination I would not be able to do that. I was moving my ass and my body according to him. The music went longer and the feast ended.

People moved in the crowd and that mysterious man disappeared among them. I got furious, I had so many unanswered questions. So I looked for him everywhere, in every eye I saw I searched for his viridian green ones. But all of my efforts went in vain as the whereabouts of that mysterious man remained a mystery.

As the feast got over, I came to my room. Granny was already asleep on the bed. She looked so peaceful in her sleep.I sat beside her, while trying not to interrupt her sleep. I sniffed on my dress, that mysterious man’s smell was still on my body.

I came to the washroom and took a warm bath. As I laid inside the tub I could still feel his hands wrapped around my waist. His touch was unforgettable. I put some lavender leaves in my water to change the fragrance, but it was no use.

His thoughts snatched away my sleep. I laid on the bed and counted sheeps, but even that was not enough to put me to sleep. I again got up and came out of the packhouse. The moon shone bright from the clouds. I sat on the big rock around the pond. The moon's reflection was falling perfectly on the pond. Silver light made nature look a lot more alluring. It made me realize how underrated the night time scenery is.

I heard the sound of throwing stones in the pond. It was midnight, so I wondered who might have been awake at this hour. I just followed the sound and found it was Prince Duncun. He seemed lost while staring at the pond.

I recalled the words from Granny and immediately took back steps. I did not want to disobey her or hurt her feelings.. Besides, his face reminded me of Elon and dug up my old wounds.. But unfortunately he saw me while running back. I ran under the shadows of trees so that he wouldn't be able to see me

“Hey..” He shouted at me and followed me thinking I must be some spy. “Stop there. If you surrender yourself, Your punishment will be lessened.” He chased me and grabbed my shoulder. I turned back and he was stunned. I was frightened and he was surprised.

“Ambrose.. Is it you? Why are you running at this hour?” He asked me curiously. I shook my head. In that dim moonlight I wasn’t able to see him. Yet I had to pretend I could see him.

“Yeah Alpha prince Duncan. It's me. Ambrose. I could not sleep so I thought about taking a walk around, But when I saw someone standing near the pond, I did not realize it was you and got scared.” I explained myself. I hesitated because now his voice seemed like Elon to me. Everytime I heard him talk, I felt like Elon was talking to me. I had to rephrase everything I said to him in my mind beforehand to avoid accidentally calling him Elon. His face and his voice reminded me of my first heartbreak. The day I cried for feeling betrayed, cheated on. Though I did not hold any personal grudges against Duncan, I may not have been able to stand still if it was actually Elon.

“You are really brave. You expressed yourself in court. I never thought Omega in our packhouse would be this brave.” He praised me. I shook my head. He was really going to be a kind Alpha just like his father. He was smiling yet his eyes seemed like he was worried. For a prince he was very kind to be talking with a commoner like me.

I melted to his words. He was so generous. His words made me happy and I came back to my room.

I was relaxed now and less worried. I came back to the packhouse and slept beside my Granny.

“Ambrose, wake up. You have a special duty today.” Granny shook my shoulder. I slept late, my eyes were still heavy. But Granny forced me to get up and I unwillingly got out of bed.

“What are those special duties?” I asked while getting ready. I chapped the lipstick on my lips. My cute little face appeared like an adult when I used red lipstick. That’s why I just tap it on my lips to make it tinted.

“You are serving meals to the higher rank.” Granny told me. I didn’t hesitate. I have already gathered some special places in higher ranks.I even became friends with the Prince Blade, and Prince Duncan also praised me for my bravery. It was a job that I could do without messing up.

I came to the kitchen, Food was ready. I put the food in a serving bowl and decorated the serving table with empty plates and spoons.

“I asked to send you. They always throw tantrums about meals.” Leela told me. I shook my head and brought that food tray to the upper rank. I bowed to Alpha Finley and came to serve him.

I was busy in my thoughts and while serving a deadly familiar voice caught my attention.

“Alpha Finley, Red moon packhouse is ready to accept our conditions.”

I could see his bright shining face which appeared like a diamond. He looked tremendously handsome. Day by day my heart was melting for him. I didn’t know why but my body cells were gathering to his side. That strong smell, his green eyes and his godlike body again attracted my unwavering attention. I could not help but notice his neck, his forearms and his biceps. I had my eyes all over him.

“You have handled it well. I knew you could do it, this was an impossible thing.” Alpha Finley praised him. My biggest misunderstanding cleared at once that he was not any spy. The Alpha Finley saw him, he must appreciate him. I felt proud.

“Yeah.. Alpha.” He hesitated as if something stuck into his throat. “I should leave now.” He stood and turned around to leave. Alpha Finley stopped him.

“Tomorrow, You are turning 18. Happy birthday.” Alpha Finley had a smile on his face but he was as cold as ice. He looked arrogant to me. As Alpha Finley said he could do impossible things, He must be so powerful and that made him egoistic and arrogant? However, that mysterious man provided no response to the Alpha leader. He left without turning back. Whatever it may be but he saved me from Rogues. I should have thanked him. I pressed my lips and came down. The kitchen was empty as everyone had their food. I got an idea and took some flour in the bowl. I learned how to make cakes while I was in high school. With some flour and one egg the batter was ready to be poured into the vessel.

In a short while a delicious cake was ready. I decorated it with Almonds and Cranberry. The cake looked adorable but it was lacking something, that was the birthday boy’s name, However I did not know his name. I kept it plain, I had decided that when I confronted him again, I was going to ask him everything that I needed to know.

But my biggest question was how would I search for him there and then I got an idea. Since my duty of serving the upper ranks was finished I assigned myself with another duty. And that was to clean the rooms of the packhouse. I went to the omega who was supposed to do the cleaning duty, and asked her if she wanted to give me her work. She told me that she had already completed her duty, but I can go check whether the rooms need double cleanse.

He must be upper ranked, I reached the upper floor but he was not there. I peeked into every room of the upper ranks while asking for cleaning but he didn’t appear to me. I stared at the cake and thought It was going to be wasted.

Then suddenly I saw an unchecked room in the corner of the floor. It was gloomy and it looked as if not many people would go there. I decided to check that one as well..

“Does this room need cleaning?” I looked around in the room. He was removing his Shirt when I peeked through the door.. I found that man. “This.. You..” My eyes went to his shining slender yet musculine body and I was impressed. I smiled at him as we had already met a few times.His personality was dominating. Everytime I met him, I found him intimidating. Even when he was not around me, there were times when I felt his presence taking control over my mind, my thoughts and even over my consciousness. There had not been many days since I first saw him, but every time I saw him I felt this strong connection I have never felt before.

“What happened? Did I ask for cleaning?” He smirked and continued his work. The coldness in his face appeared to be evil when I came in front of him. I wonder if he had never smiled. His eyes got darker as if I did any kind of sin while coming to his room. No one was this rude in the entire packhouse except from him
