Loving My Rejected Luna

Chapter 71

As soon as she walked into the mansion, Kiara broke down. She didn’t even know why she was crying. She should be happy that he would finally get to feel what she felt two years ago, right? Except she wasn’t. Her heart ached not only for him but for herself and their dead son.

All the emotions she had buried deep down all immediately surfaced to the top making her unable to breath. Why was this happening to her again?

“That’s enough, Kiara. You shouldn’t be crying because he deserves everything that’s happening now” Kiara turned to her.

“But I love him, Heather. I love him so much and that’s why it hurts. Is something wrong with me? I’m not supposed to love him after everything but yet, I do” Heather sighed then grabbed Kiara’s face with a stern look on her face.

“I’m your voice of reasoning so listen to me. Yes, it does hurt and I understand your feelings but he doesn’t deserve your tears, Kiara neither does he deserve your forgiveness or a third chance because you gave him a second chance to rectify himself, yet he did the same thing. Who’s to say this won’t happen again even if both of you get back together? He’s toxic for you” Kiara stared at her for a while then let out a sigh.

Heather was making a lot of sense and her words were true but despite everything, Kiara wanted to try her best to understand Zane’s point of view. He had just manipulated.

“I’m not saying I want to forgive him, Heather. I can’t forgive and I think it’s better if we are not together and it breaks my heart because I love him. Why did this have to happen to us? We were so happy” She muttered as tears streamed down her face then she wrapped her arms around Heather and held her tight.

“Shhh, it’s going to be okay. All you have to do is forget about him and maybe date someone else that I think is better than Zane” Kiara furrowed her eyebrows then pulled away from the hug with a frown on her face.

“What?” Heather rolled her eyes.

“Oh come on, you know what I’m talking about. Levi likes you and he’ll treat you right. You have to move on from Zane and the only way to do that is to fall in love with someone else” Kiara’s frown deepened. She liked Levi a lot but as a friend and nothing more.

Before she could say anything, the door opened up and Levi walked into the house with worry on his face. He immediately walked up to Kiara and placed his hand on her shoulders.

“Are you okay? My guards told me about what happened and I immediately rushed back here” Heather turned to smile at Levi then wiggled her eyebrows at Kiara.

“I need to use the bathroom” She muttered then ran away before Kiara could stop her.

As soon as Heather was gone, Levi held Kiara’s hand and searched her face with concern etched on his.

“You cried” She smiled slightly.

“Well it’s kind of inevitable when the one thing that drove a wedge between you and someone you love finally got revoked” He sighed then caressed her face.

“Even though I don’t like talking about your relationship with Zane, feel free to tell me whatever is on your mind. Even if you want to confess your love to him, tell me. I’m a very good listener” She stared at him for a while then a bright smile appeared on her face as she wrapped her arms around him.

“Thank you. The world would be so much more peaceful if I just fell in love with you, Levi, because you’re genuinely a sweet guy” He hugged her tightly.

“Now that you have decided to end things with Zane for a while, how about I make you fall in love with me?” She tensed up immediately then pulled away to stare up at his face and when she saw the seriousness in his eyes, her eyes widened.

“Levi… I…”

“I know you might not like me that way and I know you might say you’re not ready to jump another relationship at the moment but I love you Kiara and I know for a fact that I can make you happy only if you’d give me the chance” She bit her lower lip as she stared at him.

“But you do know that if I date you now, I’m only doing that because I want to get over Zane, right?” Levi nodded with a smile. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“I know and I don’t care. Being able to go on a date with you is something I’ve dreamt of everyday since I met you. At first, I didn’t want to be a rebound but if that’s what it takes to be with you then I don’t mind it” She stared at him for a while then let out a sigh.

“I… can I think about it? I’ll give you an answer later” Levi nodded with a smile.

“Take your time, I don’t want to rush or pressure you. Since I know you’re alright now, I’d get back to work, hmm?” She smiled as she nodded then he pinched her cheek softly with a smile before walking out of the house.

As soon as he closed the door behind him, he let out a breath he hadn’t even realized he had been holding. Gosh! That had to be one of the scariest things he had ever done in his life but he couldn’t help but feel happy inside.

He has already sworn to himself that he was never going to let her go so even if she rejected his offer, he was going to do whatever it took to get her to be his. Zane already lost his chance, now it’s his time to have her in his arms.

He can’t wait for the time he can finally call her his because that would be a dream come true.

“Boss, this letter just came in from you” One of the guard’s voices snapped Levi out of his thoughts. He glanced at the letter with furrowed eyebrows then took it from the guard and examined it. There was no address but Levi could have a thought or two about who might be from. Obviously someone that was stuck in the 60s.

He opened the letter slowly and he instantly shook with fear.

‘That girl seems very important to Zane, killing her just seemed like the right way to punish him, don’t you think?” Levi clenched his fist and gritted his teeth. When it comes to Kiara, he would rather die than let anything happen to her.

“Do not touch her or you’re going to finally see why I’m my Mother’s son
