Longing For My Rejected Luna

*****Erika's POV*****

When Jace spoke those words. It felt like the world came crashing down for a moment as I struggled to understand what he meant.

I spun around to face Jace, my heart pounding in my chest. The anger and confusion that had been simmering inside me finally erupted. "How in the world could you keep something this significant from me?" I demanded, my voice laced with a mix of hurt and frustration.

I could see the guilt flicker across Jace's eyes, but I wasn't about to let him off the hook that easily. Questions tumbled out of my mouth in rapid succession, my words overlapping his feeble attempts to respond.

It was as if a dam had burst inside me, and I couldn't stop the flood of emotions and inquiries that poured out.

"You aren't a Blackwood and you couldn't even tell me about this?!" I shrieked, his earlier words playing in my mind again.

He was a Hart? As in Hart?

How was all these even possible?

"It's the truth, Rika." He still went ahead to reply in a nonchalant tone.

I glared at him feeling betrayed by all these. All my life had been a lie from the start and I was pretty sure father knew of all these.

I grew up with a total stranger, thinking we were siblings born of another mother but shared the same father. I would never believe that we were not a family, we were not siblings, we were both from different mothers and fathers. That explains why father insisted I become Alpha, because he wasn't a Blackwood.

"Alright, that's enough of the drama." We heard Serenity say, rubbing her hands together.

"You both don't see how freezing it is out here and you still want to converse and leave us to die in such cold?" She snorted.

I and Jace watched her carefully, already knowing that what would happen next wouldn't be good.noveldrama

My gaze shifted to Alex who was slumped over the guard's shoulder.

I had a hunch that the substance was sprayed on him and that was why it had such an effect on him.

"Erika, I will get my revenge on you for killing my brother and I'll also kill your fake brother who destroyed my base, my father's legacy!" I watched her like she had gone nuts.

She called a base filled with Hoodlums, a legacy? Serenity was definitely not alright.

"Seren...."

"Shut up." She cut me short and before I could say one more word, Serenity pulled out a gun, one that would most definitely have a silver bullet.

"I'll send you both straight to meet your dad, oh wait.... He is not your father, Jace, And he isn't dead either."

I gritted my teeth and clenched my fist.

I was ready to snap if she kept spewing those words. Her guard lurked nearby as

I sat on the freezing ground, while Jace knelt beside me.

"Back off." She aimed the gun at Jace, her voice demanding. I urged him to step away, and he complied. But then, in a flash, someone bolted towards Serenity, attempting to wrestle the gun from her grasp.

We all stayed there, frozen in shock,

as the unexpected intruder appeared before us, Serenity's screams pierced the air, mixing with the. chaos unfolding in front of us. was as if time had come to a standstill, and I struggled to comprehend the scene playing out before my eyes.

My heart pounded in my chest as I watched Serenity desperately cling to the gun, her grip slipping with

each tug. The intruder, relentle

and determined, fought against her, refusing to let go. As I squinted through the confusion, my eyes

widened in disbelief.

It was Noir, Noir Hart, the person who had just entered our lives, now standing

before us, battling Serenity for control of the weapon and saving our lives.

When did he wake up? And he seemed to have healed up completely.

My heart beat palpated as I watched him in excitement.

Soon, Noir's eyes locked with mine, and in that moment, I saw a mixture of pity and determination in his two clear eyes. Confusion washed over me as I tried to comprehend the meaning behind the look.

Why would he direct such a pitiful expression towards me before I could find the answers, everything became clear in an instant. Without warning, Noir pulled his T-shirt away, revealing the explosive he had on. Fear crept to my face seeing all the explosives he wore.

In a daring motion, Noir propelled himself off the cliff, pulling Serenity with him. Serenity screamed bloody murder when Noir jumped off the cliff together with her.

"No!!" I yelled out as I realized that Noir was just about to kill himself and Serenity as revenge for everything.

The bomb he wore exploded and he wasn't to be seen again. That was how both Serenity and Noir died.

I froze in place while I felt Jace rushed over to the guard who had already thrown Alex to the ground and took to his heels.

I slowly turned to Alex's direction and seeing his limp body, my insides shook and I found myself crawling towards him shakily.

When I reached him, I pulled him to me, staring at his handsome face as I called out to him.

"Alex, wake up.." The cold was already beginning to get to Cindy and I. My legs felt like Jelly and I was this close to passing out.

"Alex..." I called out again, "wake up.." I tapped his chin, everywhere to make him wake up, but it was to no avail.

"Cindy what's going on with him?" I asked.

"He'll be alright" was all she said and I doubted I would get words instantly.

"Are you sure? Why is he not responding?"

"The dosage was too much on him." She said, talking about the spray Serenity used on him earlier.

Tears stung my eyes, but I bit them back and turned in the direction Jace left in.

We were the only ones here now and no one was in sight to help.

Dizziness suddenly hit me, making me unable to keep my eyes open.

I tried multiple times, but failed miserably and Soon, I succumbed to the darkness, laying close to Alex.
