Chasing The Rejected Luna's Heart (Clara and Liam) novel Chapter 133

~CLARA~

I scoffed at his words.

“Damon doesn't fucking care about me so why should I put him first? He threw me away so I'm going to pick my uncle's side over his” I told him and a look crossed over his face which made me narrow my eyes suspiciously at him.

“Why do you have that look on your face?” I questioned and he let out a nervous laugh.

“About that…” He trailed off and I frowned before grabbing onto his shirt.

“Please tell me you didn't lie about that as well” I uttered as I stared at him but the look in his eyes already told me all I needed to know.

“If I didn't say all that, if you didn't believe Damon threw you away, you wouldn't have come with me” He explained and I stared at him in disbelief.

“What exactly did Luca tell you, Dimitri? Speak!” I yelled and his eyes immediately widened.

“Damon only asked you to be escorted out of the pack to his safe house because he was scared my father or Delilah would hurt you if my mother was proclaimed dead. He never abandoned you, as a matter of fact, despite knowing the truth, he still didn't want to get rid of you, he just wanted you to be safe” As Dimitri explained, I could feel my heart racing.

“And the baby? Did you tell him about the baby?” I questioned and when he shook his head, I lost it and punched him in the eye.

“Fuck! I know you're mad but…” Before he could complete his statement, I landed another blow on his cheek.

He was wrong, I wasn't mad, I was fucking livid and I wanted nothing more than to hurt Dimitri.

“Clara, please can you calm down and let's talk?” Dimitri asked as he grabbed onto my fist to try and stop me from punching him again but I just pulled back my foot and kicked him as hard as I could by the side.

He cursed as he doubled over and I smiled when I saw the bruise on his cheek.

“You had the chance to talk to me but yet you decided to deceive me! You bastard!” I screamed in his face and he sighed.

“I know what I did was wrong but it was the only way. You would have never gone with me if I hadn't said that. I'm sorry, I really am” He said and I could see the sincerity in his eyes but I didn't believe it.

He has been lying to my face and made me believe Damon had abandoned me and his child.

“Hand me your phone now, I need to speak with Damon” I told him as I stretched my hand towards him.

“No, I can't risk you telling him where we are and ruining everything” He said to me and I scoffed.

“I’m not playing any more games with you. Give me your phone, I need to talk to my husband” I roared before trying to reach for the phone in his pocket but he swiftly moved away, stood up and took a few steps away from me.

“I can't let you ruin everything, Clara. I promise you, it will be over soon and I'll return you safely to Damon. If you tell him where you are and he comes to get you, everything will be in vain and Damon will still be in trouble so please Clara, just drop it” He pleaded with me and I frowned.

“How do you feel knowing your brother, whom you're fighting so dearly for, didn't even know I'm with his child yet I shouted at him over the phone and even told him I hated him? We lost a child once and that broke both of us. He must be thinking he has lost me and our child and I cannot even describe how he must be feeling right now. I need to talk to him, Dimitri” I tried to reason with him but there was an adamant look in his eyes.

“Clara…”

“I won't mention my whereabouts to him. Heck, I don’t even know where we are so please let me talk to him and put his mind at ease” I interrupted his words and we both had a stare down for a while before Dimitri eventually gave up.

“Fine but not a word about the plan or anything of that sort. You have only ten minutes to talk to him, I don't want him tracking down my number” He said to me and sighed when he saw the stubborn look on my face.

“You have to promise me or I won't give you my phone” He uttered and I rolled my eyes.

“Fine, I promise! Now give me” He stared at me for a while before reaching into his pocket. He brought out his phone, unlocked it and dialed Damon’s number before handing the phone to me.

Damon picked on the third ring.

“You bastard! I'm going to kill you the minute I lay my hands on you! I'll break all your bones and make sure you never get reincarnated!” Damon screamed so loudly that I had to pull the phone away from my ear for a second.

“Damon, it's me” I murmured softly and he went quiet for a while before I heard him take in a sharp breath.

“Clara? My love? Oh goddess, I don't understand what's going on. What baby? What were you talking about? Please talk to me” The tone of his voice immediately broke my heart.

I could hear the pain, the sadness and fear in his voice.
