Chasing The Rejected

-CLARA-

All the sleep immediately disappeared as I jumped out of the bed and traced that sound of Alicia’s laughter.

I walked down the stairs and straight to the living room where they were. I stood by the door and watched as Alicia laughed to goddess knows what was funny while Damon just stood there staring at her.

Like I expected, he immediately noticed my presence.

“Clara, you’re awake” He uttered and I pushed myself off the door frame and walked towards him.

I gave Alicia a curt nod before turning to him with a frown.

“Why did you leave without waking me up?” I questioned and he sighed.

*Because you barely got any sleep last night so I didn’t want to disturb you and Alicia wanted to talk so I just decided to talk to her and ask her a few questions. Don’t be mad, okay?” He murmured and I sighed before nodding.

I couldn’t be mad at him because technically he wasn’t-doing anything wrong… yet.

“Sorry I stole Damon away, I just wanted to catch up with him. We have a lot of years to catch up on so I thought I’d start early” She murmured and I frowned. What did she mean by stole him away?

“That’s enough. Go get ready, I’ll be taking you to my father’s mansion so he can properly see you and authorize your stay b

back here”

Damon uttered then grabbed my hand and led me away before I could say anything

I turned around and Alicia had a big frown on her face.

*Do you want to go on a date tonight or do you want to go wedding dress shopping with Delilah?” He questioned, turning my attention to

him

“You still want to get married?” I questioned and he paused before turning to me with a frown.

“Of course, why would you even ask that?” He questioned and I sighed. Because I was getting insecure. Alicia practically looked like a goddess while I was sure I looked ordinary compared to her.

When I didn’t reply, Damon sighed then grabbed onto my face.

“We are already married, you’re already my wife. I just want to give a proper wedding before I make you my Luna, okay? Nothing is going to change that. I love you” He assured me and I smiled before nodding

“I love you” He sighed then wrapped his arms around me.

“She just came, why are you so bothered about her?” He questioned and I too wanted to know why since she hasn’t made a move on him yet but I knew it was coming. I just didn’t want to give her a chance to be with him alone.

Damon took me back to our room and we showered together which like always turned into hot sex.

After we were done, we got dressed and went downstairs for breakfast. When we walked into the dining room, I was taken back when i saw Alicia there and not only that but she was seated on my seat which was next to Damon’s.

“You guys are finally here, I’m starving. It seems the cooks made my favourite. Come sit down let me feed you” She murmured and

frowned.

*You can’t feed him, I’m his wife and I’ll feed him. Plus you’re sitting on my seat” I muttered and she frowned.

“I was here way before you were and this is where I always sat so technically, you’re inu spot” She uttered and I clenched my fist.

“That’s enough. Let’s just eat, you still need to give my mother medicine right?” Damon questioned and I sighed then nodded.

“Medicine? Your mother relapsed?” She questioned as we took our seat at the

“Yes, Clara has been treating her. She’s very good at making medicine” He murmured then glanced down at me proudly and I smiled.

“What? You’re letting her treat your mother? Does she even know the right herbs to mix to help with her disease?” Alicia asked and

frowned.

“I was a healer back at my pack so I know what I’m doing” I murmured and she scoffed.

“You know what, I’m back now and I’ll continue treating your mother. She should be better in no time” Alicia uttered.

“Clara is already treating her and is doing a good job so no need. My mother is already getting better” Damon uttered before I could say a

word and I smiled.

I was happy he was defending me against Alicia.

She seemed surprised by his words but nevertheless said nothing else after that.

That had to be the most awkward breakfast I had ever had. Alicia kept trying to engage Damon in conversation and make him reminisce on their past but Damon wasn’t interested so he just gave her one word answers and tried talking to me instead but she’ll talk over me before!

even got a chance to speak.

Fortunately, it was soon over and luckily, Damon had Alicia in a separate car from ours.

“Give her time to adjust to the idea that I’m happy with you, okay? I have a feeling that the two of you are going to be good friends” He murmured and I scoffed. I highly doubted that.

We got to his parents’ mansion and his father was waiting outside for us.

“Father!” I heard Alicia yell as she ran up to Damon’s father and threw her arms around him. He hugged her back and let out a chuckle before pulling back to stare at her.

“My my, you have grown a lot Alicia. Have you been well? He questioned and she nodded enthusiastically.

“I’ve missed you and mother so much. Is she awake? I’d like to see her” She uttered and he nodded,

“Yeah she’s awake and she’s expecting you” He uttered and she squealed before interlocking her arm with his

“Good let’s go see her then” She uttered then pulled him into the house while we stood there watching.

Father? Mother? Yeah I didn’t have a good relationship with Damon’s parents because of everything that has happened between us still, jealousy gnawed at my soul seeing how close she was to them.

I don’t k

but

now why but deep down, I felt something bad was about to happen…
