Longing For My Rejected Luna

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

I sat on the edge of the bed in our bedroom, my heart drumming in my chest as I fidgeted with my nightwear. Cindy had specifically instructed me to wear a flimsy nightwear instead of my pajamas.

This was my first night with Alex, well it wasn't the first. We had done this before back when we were married to each other. But to me, this was my first time.

A first time that came out of love and me not feeling like some kind of liability.

The bathroom door was soon pulled open and I felt my heart almost leap out of my chest. I was so nervous, unable to find the courage to turn around and meet Alex's gaze.

I kept my gaze forward, anticipating his next moves towards me.

But minutes passed and there were still no movements from him.

I turned slightly, wanting to see what he was doing. But when I turned my gaze, I almost screamed as I saw a shirtless Alex.

He walked slowly towards me and I was unable to look steadily into his eyes as embarrassment flooded my mind and looked away immediately.

"No." Alex's voice rang out. "Keep your eyes on me, Rika." He ordered and I found myself obeying at once.

He came to sit beside me, his hand coming to move my hair to the side and his face buried into the crook of my neck.

He peppered opened mouth kisses on my neck, trailing down wards to my shoulder and arms.

Without a doubt, I would consummate and mate with Alex tonight.

********

A few days passed with things going well for each and everyone one of us. Kat lived happily, taking up the duties of the Thunderclaw pack orphanage and mostly inviting me over. We all lived happily as if nothing had ever happened to us.

On this day, I walked out of the room which had newly brought in children and found Kat leaning on the wall with her hands on her forehead.

"Kat, are you alright?" I asked the moment I stood beside her.

She breathed out and shook her head, "I feel like crap." She gritted out, still not failing to use her usual foul words.

"Tell me what is happening to your body." I said seriously, no traces of a smile on my face.

She finally gave in and told the truth. "Nauseous, light headed, tired and dizzy."

I blinked at those words from her.

"Come, I'll take you to the infirmary." I said instead and she nodded. I helped her out of the orphanage and straight to the car parked outside.

"Drive to the hospital." I said to the driver the moment we both climbed in.

Kat kept tossing and turning and suddenly, she went limp. I panicked, seeing her unmoving state.

"Kat!" I called out, shaking her vigorously, but she didn't respond.

"Katerina!" I called out again, shaking her even more but still got no response.

"Drive faster!"

I yelled at the driver and he stepped on the gas.

The car soon arrived at the infirmary and I ordered the guard to call the hospital staff.

They came rushing out with a stretcher, helping Kat out of the car and wheeling her in the moment she was placed on the stretcher.

I called Jace, telling him of what happened and he told me he would be at the hospital in no time.

The process of checking Kat lasted for a few minutes before the doctor walked out of the room.

He was all smiles and he came to stand towards me.

"Luna Erika, I'm glad to inform you that Luna Katerina is pregnant." At those words from the doctor, my heart leaped in joy and a smile broke out on my face. "Thank you so much, Doctor." I said with a bow and he walked out.

Jace came rushing in at that time and seeing the smile on my face as I watched him, he paused.

"What's wrong, where is she?" He asked, nervously looking around.

"She is in her ward, the doc just came out to inform me of the good news that Kat

is going to be a mother." I went straight to the point and I saw Jace's eyes widened.

"What?!" He yelled out and I laughed, giving him a nod.

The joy and happiness I saw on Jace's face the next minute was one I never saw before as he immediately insisted on going to see her.

I complied and he immediately dashed into her ward to see her.

I pulled out my phone again to inform Paula about the good news.

First she gave us a sweet pup and now Kat was about to do the same.

I felt happy about it and when I eventually told her about it, She expressed a happiness just the same as Jace's.

She said she would visit the hospital or the packhouse to see Kat in a few days.

I loved the development of things in our lives at this point. Everything fell into

place in the lives of everyone and we all lived happily again after everything that had happened so far.

The fights with Serenity that had

taken a toll on everyone, the death of

Noir and all, they had become pastnoveldrama

tenses and we hoped things kept being smooth and wonderfuPfor my friends and I.

**********

After a few successful months, Kat eventually gave birth to her cute little daughter. One that brought joy and happiness to the entire Thunderclaw pack. Her little Alpha, just like I was.

Her little girl was named Selene and she looked extremely beautiful with sharp eyes.

Well I on the other hand waited for a Miracle from the moon goddess. I was yet to conceive too, but Alex would often comfort me and tell me that my turn to have a little pup would come. Everything came at its own time and I only had to wait till the goddess brought forth our own little Alpha.

He insisted on taking me out on a vacation to clear my mind and have me enjoy myself before we were also tied down by responsibility of parents, just like Paula, Gage, Kat and Jace.

Each time they would busy themselves in caring for their kids, while still keeping the pack running.

Gage had insisted that he wouldn't become Alpha of the Moonforest pack, so we merged.

He still lived as Alex's Beta, but he lived in the Moonforest Pack previous packhouse with Elena and Alex's mother.

"You want us to go on vacation?" I asked Alex again, as he walked out of the bathroom.

He nodded, "I already got two tickets to Lycansvile." He said with a smile and I sighed.

"But what about the Pack? Who would take care of it?"

"Gage will,"

"Gage is a father now." I argued, the man needs fine for his family.

"Who says he wouldn't have time for

his family if he takes care of the pack?" Alex was being unreasonable again, but well I guess I really needed that vacation since it always hurt to know that I hadn't gotten my child.

Alex insisted we leave for the vacation the next day and I got the maids to pack

up my bags and Luggages.

I went over to my father's bedroom to inform him about it.

He was seated by his window with a glass of whatever and a magazine in hand.

Once he saw me walk in, he smiled and gestured to the seat before me.

"Why are you here Little Alpha?"

"I'm not an Alpha anymore, Dad." I said with a giggle and he scoffed.

"You will always be my little Alpha." He replied with a smile.

I rolled my eyes, then sighed.

"Alex wants me to go on vacation with him." I finally announced, waiting for so

many questions of what and why.

"Yes, it's good for you. I told him to take you for a vacation." Father replied and I

blinked.

"You did?"

"Yes, you need it." He smiled at me and I bit my lower lip.

"Why do you think I need a vacation?" I asked, eyes suddenly moist.

He sighed, "Your friends are now mother's, you aren't. So I need you to go away

for a few days to clear your head and make you understand that the mother of the moon will visit you soon."

At those words, the tears fell again from my eyes and I bit my lips again.

"Thank you father." I said and he nodded.

"You're welcome."

I went forward to hug him as gratitude for his encouragement.
