The Rejected Luna: Daddy, Where is Mommy?
Chapter 15: Claimed by my daddy

Ethlyn couldn't stop thinking about Roselet. She wanted to go and check on her, but she justcouldn't do it just like that.

'Why couldn't? Just go to the guest house and check on her." Cinder demanded. “Did you forgethow scared she looked when her uncles took her with them?* She questioned, reminded howLemieux took her with him, cooing her softly to make her forget what just happened.

'And why are you so concerned about her? Till morning, you wanted me to dig for the truth, andnow, you started diverting my mind already?’ Ethlyn asked. 'She is not our pup, so stop worrying forher, OR we will suffer the most when she will leave.’

Cinder growled at her but didn't answer her back because she knew that her human was right. Butthey both knew that Roselet had brought a lot of emotions in her just by saying, “Mommy.

"I'm sorry, dad. I shouldn't have talked with you for a stranger.” She apologized. "I should haveknown that it must be that pup's mistake.” She added.

“It's okay, Princess,” Christian responded. “It was my mistake, so please don't blame her. I just hopethis incident doesn't give her any trauma,” he added in concern.

Hearing it, Cinder started getting worried again. She could feel a bond with the pup that her humancouldn't understand and she couldn't recognize.

"Did she reject her mate already?” Christian asked, entering the house and replaceing Reva cryingbitterly while Abigail was consoling her.

“No. That Beta left her in the middle of the conversation and ran away.” Abigail responded. “That'swhy I'm telling her to reject that beta who doesn't care about her.”

“Moon Goddess, Mom!! Stop brainwashing her.” Ethlyn said in irritation. “You're acting like a vampin your daughter's life.”

“Ethlyn, mind your to...”

“She is telling the truth, Abby. Stop giving ideas to Reva for rejecting her mate, or I will have to getrid of a mate like you.” Christian said, cutting her in between, shocking her. “Enough is enough,now.”

“But Christ..."

Christian was already pissed at himself from Roselet's rejection, and Abigail's next drama wasbringing the worst out of him.

“Not a word.” He growled. “Not a single word or you will replace yourself out of my life and this houseas well,” he warned. Both Reva and Ethlyn were surprised to see their father this angry. Reva forgother crying, and her mind shifted to this incident.

“I don’t want to insult the mother of my pups, but it's ENOUGH now.” He ordered and looked atReva. “There is one simple rule of any relationship, Reva. Never! Never entertain a third personbetween mate bonds. Even if it includes your own parents, if you wanted to know why he left all of asudden, then you could have followed him and would have asked about it rather than assumingthings on your own.”

"Ye.yes, dad,” Reva muttered.

“And you have to listen to your mom, then go ahead and reject him. I will be happy for thatwerewolf whose life got saved from getting ruined by an evil witch.” By saying this, Christian leftfrom there, and Reva's jaw dropped. A second later, even Abigail left from there.

"Did... did dad call me an evil witch instead of a princess?” She asked Ethlyn, who sensed that herdad was angry with her mom for some reason.

But what could her mom have done because of which her peace-loving dad was so pissed?

Ethlyn reached near her and pinched her hard. “Aaouch! Ouch!!” Reva cried. “I should be going tocheck on my mate.”

“Grandpa Christian knows our secret.” Roselet finally spoke. She didn't speak a single word from themoment she fell from the top floor. She got so scared that it took everyone a good amount of timeto cheer her up for two reasons. One, because she was everyone's favorite, and second becausethey wanted to stay alive. “When he told me that he always knew about me and asked me to hughim, I denied it and started running away from him and... and that was when all this happened.” Shereplied with the answer to the question which they had been asking for a while, but she had kepther mouth at that time.

“I knew it,” Zordan said after listening to that. “I sensed it the moment he grabbed the opportunityto give a tour of the packhouse.”

“The best thing is our princess is all right,” Lemieux said. “And I guess jumping from that heightwould have been fun, like bungee jumping. After all, she is the daughter of Adventure king,” he said,pinching her cheek.

“That's true. Calvin was full of fun in his young days.”

“Really?” Roselet asked to which Zordan nodded his head.

“There is not a single activity left that he didn't do. He was known for his fearless act.”

"Okay then. I will tell him about today's incident, and he will be thrilled to know that I'm following inhis footsteps in terms of fun.” Roselet said with excitement. She was scared before until this truthwas revealed to her. She loved being told that she was just like her father. Little did she know thateveryone told her so that she would stop feeling scared, but Zordan's face color paled.

“No! No. Don't tell him about it.” He said quickly. As much as he knew his friend, Calvin would get aheart attack after listening to this news, even though Roselet was absolutely fine. That carefree andfearless Calvin could stay a second silently if anything concerned his daughter.

“But why? I don't hide anything from Calvin. And he does the same with me.” She asked inconfusion.

"Zordan mean to say that tell him about it after reaching near him, pleaseeee.” Asher requested.“But Calvin asked me never to hide anything from him. Because that's bad manners.”

“We aren't asking you to hide anything from Alpha, princess. Just tell him about it after reachingthere, or he might get worried and won't be able to focus on his work.” Asher explained.

“Guys, my mate is approaching here,” Zordan said, sensing Reva's scent.

“Your mate? Did you replace your real fated mate?” Roselet asked because she didn't know about it."Yes, Princess. And guess what? She is the younger sister of your mommy.” Zordan said."Wooooow!!" She jumped in excitement and recalled that Ethlyn didn't have any mark on hershoulder, just like a marked female she-wolf.

“It means that she is not claimed by Alpha Nathan. And it also means that she can be claimed bysomeone else. She can be claimed by my daddy.’ Her innocent mind thought about it and smiled onher own. She remembered Calvin's words not to dream of seeing her real mommy and daddytogether, but she couldn't replace any reason why she shouldn't dream about it.

Not when her mommy was single, just like her daddy.
