Rejecting Your Rejection novel Chapter 27

'There is so much to say but I just couldn't. I am too exhausted and too numb to give you reasons.'

Dante was walking Daniella by the door when Cora who has been listening and hearing the shocking piece of information from outside Dante’s office confronts them both. The boys, Kyle and Jem just stood by watching them.

"Now I know, you're the reason why he's been like that" Daniella's heart start to beat faster. Cora looks furious at her not even giving Daniella any time to respond.

"You really did break my brother, didn't you? when my sister begs you why didn't you come for him?" Daniella became stiff in her place.

"Why exactly are you doing here huh Dani? I mean why the fuck did you have to come back here?" she sneers at her. "Are you here to shove it in his face, that you're going to be happily married? To watch him slowly dies while you smile with glee" she shouted at Daniella.

"No" she answers

"No, then why is your wedding taking place here knowing really well my brother could get hurt," she continues to shout at her "come on Dani enlighten us!!" she threw her hands up laughing shortly scoffing at her.

Daniella didn't speak she was too overwhelmed by it, she felt someone held her hand with the sparks she knew it was him.

Cora snarl at that "you should at least be kind enough and accepted his rejection."

"Cora it's complicated," she bluffs at her "complicated are you kidding me? then why didn't you accept his rejection? or even accept him back when he said he was sorry like you said in there"

"because I just can't help the idea of being compared to her and him emotionally and physically hurting me"

All eyes were set on her, Dante stood with shock Dani never explains anything to him other than him abusing, only if she knew how much he regrets everything he did to her. He never wanted to hurt her in such ways as he did.

On the contrary, he thought his rejection and the abusive way he hurt her was the only thing she despite him over but now it was more than just his rejection. There she finally said what really was holding her back.

Cora still didn't back out from him she pushes her again "maybe it was true and it's sad because it's so true that our first luna Alexis was way better than you," her world shattered at her words, Daniella didn't stop either even though her tears slowly drop from her eyes.

"It's hurt to be rejected and come as his last choice," she felt his hand slips away from her his face casting down with shame. She didn't want him to keep her distance from her, she needed him now yet Dante took several steps away from her and she was all on her own.

she felt sparks ignite through her when he held back her hand turning her around then his hands cupping her face

"you're not her" she sobs

"I never meant what I say" she still sobs in his hands "you're my first Dani in everything, she was nothing like you. Nobody was ever good enough like you. You were too good for me at the time. Just so you know she never owns my heart as you did and I never kiss her the way I kiss with you."

She stops him when her lips find his taking him off guard. He responded to her, his hands tangling through her head holding her, he could still taste her salty tears with their kiss.

Pulling away she caresses his cheek "I'm sorry but we can't" she wanted to die when she said those words, Cameron was right she made a mistake by marrying someone else

"I Daniella" she sobs not even wanting to accept his rejection because deep down inside her she has feelings for him but Cora was right

"Maynard accept your rejection" and she runs off crying leaving him behind.
