Longing For My Rejected Luna novel Chapter 6

*****Erika's POV*****

"Father had never stopped talking about your marriage with that Alpha for the past three years" Jace said to me as he continued going through the papers in his hand.

We were in the car, currently going back to my pack. Jace had insisted that I return home first, and on the day of dissolving the mate bond, he would gladly bring me back to the Moon forest pack, so that I could leave Alex for good.

It did hurt that I left my husband, but I also know that every decisions I was taking right now, is for the best.

Alex had hurt me, including the entire pack members, so feeling sad for leaving my problems behind was very unacceptable.

"Why would he even be talking about my marriage?" I begrudgingly asked. My father and my brother could be very nosy at times. I hated it when they stalked me, or try to look into my personal life. But I still couldn't deny the fact that they cared for me, deeply.

After the argument with my dad three years ago, he shouldn't even be thinking about me. But he still cared and kept an eye on me daily.

I was pretty sure he knew every single maltreatments I faced in the moonforest. Whether he planted a spy in the moonforest or not, he would get any information he wanted about me. So I just couldn't hide, even if I wanted to.

"You clearly told him three years ago, if I remember, that you would mend your marriage. But we have a result already, don't we?" Jace said and chuckled at the last part.

He sure knew how to make mockery of me. I had always kept to my word when it came to making decisions and promises, but my failed marriage was a whole new level of difficult.

A loveless marriage would never benefit anyone, Instead it would break you till you become the shell of your own self.

"Here, this is the new cotract papers" Jace handed me the papers he had been going through earlier.

"What's this for?" I asked, giving him a raised brow.

'The new contract" Jace repeated.

"I heard you the first time, what is this contract all about?"

Jace sighed with a smile tugging at his lips, "Three years ago when you were about to get tied down by that manwhore, you signed a contract with father, right?" He asked.

“Yes, I did” I replied.

"Well this is the new one, more like the opposite of the previous contract" he said again and this time, I snatched the papers from him.

Cindy was already getting pissed by the contract word that Jace couldn't stop saying.

I skimmed through the entire thing exhaustedly and realized it was actually a contract that stated that I wouldn't have anything to do with the moonforest ever again, and I would be the Alpha of the Ironclaw Pack till the day I take my last breath.

Seriously?

The day I take my last breath?

"Why did dad change the rules?" I asked Jace in shock.

He smiled in return and said, "you're the first woman to lead the Ironclaw, so he needed to change the rules"

I furrowed my brow at his explanation.

What has me being the first female to rule the pack, have to do with being the Alpha till my last breath?

Jace seemed to have read my mind, because he added, "you are not allowed to get married again, Erika. But you can keep a lover, you just can't mate him."

My eyes widened at his words. I felt the world spin as well.

"Your father is sure very strict" Cindy chimed in and I growled.

"Don't worry Sis, you'll be just fine" Jace encouraged and I had no other choice but to relax.

I took the pen from him and elegantly signed my name, accepting the rules my father had brought in suddenly.

Jace smiled at me and patted my head softly.
