All Chapters of REJECTED BY THE MOON : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

CHAPTER 11.Ritual Of Deliverance.The dim light from the kitchen further intensified the fear in us. We were so scared because we had obviously heard a strange noise from the entrance of the kitchen area.What could that be?I sat at the dining table in fear, as I tried to figure out what might've gone wrong.On the other hand, my mum and dad stood at the extreme end of the parlor, as they kept sighing in frustration, while my two younger siblings, Eli and Bram, sat on the couch, while exchanging glances at each other."We can't allow this to happen. "We can't just let it go," my dad's voice finally broke the long silence. “Rory, you've brought shame and calamity and curses upon us as a result of this rejection. Something must be done about it.”“Something?” I asked with unbelievable anger. What did he mean by that?"So, you're obviously going to punish me for a crime that I didn't even commit. Thane was the one who rejected me, and as such, I shouldn't be forced to pay for his crime

CHAPTER 13.The pack's judgement.The tension in the atmosphere as I approached the venue where the pack had assembled was really intimidating. Now, I knew that I had to stand up for myself, or face eternal doom.The light from the old lanterns created a long array of dark shadows.Recently, I have become the center of discussion, following the incidents of the last few days.As I slowly made my way to the assembly, all eyes were on me, and I could tell from their reactions that they looked at me with disgust."Take a look at who finally decided to grace us with her royal presence," a voice said from the crowd. It was no other person than Elara. Her blonde hair and dark blue eyes had easily given her away."Elara, don't be petty. " Let her be!" Another pack member named Marcus shot back at her, with a protective voice. Even as he spoke, I could hear the uncertainty in his voice.I looked at him with a grateful smile, but my face went pale in embarrassment.But, how would they see my

CHAPTER 15.The Warning.The tension that filled us at that moment was utterly unbelievable. As Kaiden and I stood behind the abandoned warehouse, we couldn't help but wonder about what had gone wrong.Even though the moonlight shone upon us, I was still worried that it wasn't enough to illuminate my dark life, and give me all the hope that I desired.Now, I am scared of the worst. I was scared that the conversation that we had about Thane was about to destroy me. I didn't know how possible it was, but I found it really absurd. Just as I was still trying to process the hard feelings that I had at that moment, I realized that a footstep was walking towards me.As the sound came close, I closed my eyes in fear. At that moment, I knew that the worst could befall me. A shadow emerged from the parking lot. It was Elara, my best friend. To be honest, I didn't even know how to feel at that moment.“Rory!” she called out to me, with fear in her voice.Immediately, I walked out of my hiding

CHAPTER 17.The mysterious ally.As I stood there in darkness, aside from the moon's constant gaze, we could've been in absolute darkness. I was still mesmerized by the fact that Kaiden came to save me. His calm disposition had shifted the entire aura of the atmosphere, and it was really overwhelming. However, I couldn't shake off the fact that I felt like something was off.I was worried about what I didn't know about."Thank you very much," I said with a tensed voice. " Even though I was scared, I was still very grateful that he came through for me. “Honestly, I didn't know what would've happened if you didn't come to my rescue. Thank you for coming back to save me."Kaiden immediately leaned on a vine tree at the other end of the corner, as he began to look into my eyes."Rory, you don't need anyone to step up and fight for you. You're strong, and I bet you don't know the kind of strength you possess!""Are you for real?" I looked at him with scorn written on my face. “And what do

CHAPTER 19.The secret of Rejection.I walked around the faded floorboards of my room, with deep unspoken words, as I inhaled the night breeze.From the look on Kaiden's face, I could tell that he was deeply terrified to the core.He didn't say goodbye, neither did he look at me.The way he left at that moment was okay by me. It was just as if he was running away from something.With each second that passed, I could hear the constant echo of his footsteps. Maybe it was just a figment of my emotions. With all that was happening lately, I knew for sure that I really needed to do more.“What could Kaiden be hiding from me?” I asked myself in utter confusion, as I ran my fingers through my hair. Even though it seemed like my world was clouded with evilness, my only form of solitude was looking at the oak tree outside my house, which was already engulfed by shadows.Another place that was like a sanctuary to me, was Miller's vine grove. It served as a resting place for me, amid all the ch
