Chasing The Rejected

Chapter 126 CLARA What do you think? Do you think this is good enugh for the date? I want Luca to drop dead when he sees me. Are you listening to me, Clara?" Hould hear Delilah's voice but couldn't make out what she was saying.

By my calculations, the poison Aurora had given Damon's mother must have taken effect and if that's the case then I was about to get in serious trouble.

"Clara, you're not listening to me" Delilah said then stomped her foot in the ground like a child, snappingout of my thoughts./ "I'm sorry, I have a lot on my mind. This suits you" I told her and she frowned as she sat down next toon the bench.

"Are you okay? You've been s**g out since we got here? Do you have something on your mind? Did Damon do anything?" She questioned with worry in her tone. I shook my head then flashed her a small smile.

"It's nothing serious, I'm just a little bit tired and my stomach hurts from all the food we ate earlier" It wasn't a total lie, we have been walking around for hours now and my feet were killing me.

"Yeah you ate a lot earlier. If I didn't know better I'd think you were pregnant" She voiced and my body tensed up immediately.

I let out an awkward laugh before deviating the topic and it seemed Delilah hadn't noticed anything.

We shopped a little longer then left the shop and while in the car, Delilah got a call from Luca.

"Hello baby, you miss me?" She said into the phone but immediately frowned after Luca let out a sigh.

"Your mother was rushed to the hospital, Delilah. Your father said her heart stopped" He informed her and Delilah gasped as tears immediately began to stream down her cheeks.

"What? When? Why? What's going on?" She questioned in between tears and I grabbed onto her hand to calm her down.

Luca tried calming her down and after a while, she ended the call and I immediately pulled her into her hug then told the driver to drive down to the hospital instead.

"I won't be able to bear it if mom died, Clara. I don't want her to die" She cried into my chest and I sighed but said nothing.

There was a little bit of traffic but soon enough, we got to the hospital and my nerves were eatingup as we were directed to where they were.

1/4 Chapter 120 I knew it was about to get messy but there was no other way.

I could see them as we walked down the hall, Delilah immediately ran to hug her father while I just stood there with my eyes glued on Damon who stared back atwith an expression I couldn't read.

"What is she doing here?" Aurora was the first to speak up and I turned to her with a frown.

"Aurora..." Dimitri began but she immediately interrupted him.

"What? It's her fault your mother is currently fighting for her life and with the way things are going, she might not make it. Clara killed your mother" As soon as she said that, the Alpha King punched the wall then let out a menacing growl before turning to me.

My eyes widened as I took a step back out of fear. His eyes had turned red and I knew at that moment, his wolf was in control and he wanteddead for hurting his mate.

The Alpha King tried lunging atbut Damon immediately stood up and placed his plan on his chest to stop him from coming to me.

"Get out of my way, Damon" The Alpha King growled while staring directly at me.

"Touch my wife and I will end you regardless of who you are. Sit down and letdeal with my wife" Damon uttered but the Alpha King didn't seem like he wanted to back down.

"Damon..." "I will talk to her. Sit down and don't cause a scene while mother is fighting for her life. Leave my wife to me" Damon told him and after a while, the Alpha King's eyes returned back to normal and he glared atbefore going back to his seat.

"I don't understand what's going on, why are you blaming Clara for what happened to mother?" Delilah questioned as she glanced around with confusion etched on her face but I wasn't looking at her but at Damon as he approached me.

"Damon..." "Is this yours?" He interrupted my words as he showedthe small container I used to contain medicine.

"Yes it is" I answered truthfully and he nodded.

"What was in it?" He questioned and I pursed my lips.

"Poison" I told him and everyone gasped and my heart broke when I saw the hurt in his eyes.

2/4 "Damon..." "So you... you poisoned my mother?" He questioned softly and I nodded slowly.

"Yes I did" I replied and Delilah let out a scream as she walked towards me.

||| THE AUR You poisoned my mother?" She questioned and I bowed my heart without replying which was enough to shower her qarstion.

She tried pouncing onbut Taua was immediately there to hold her down.

"Letgo! How dare you, Clara? How could you do this to us? Why?!" She questioned and I pursed my hips before turning to Damon who was at me.

ting "Damon, you promised to trust me” I reminded on as I tried grabbing onto his hand but he just took a step backwards.

"Trust you? You poisoned my mother and you're askingto trust you?" He yelled and I immediately flinched. Dimitri immediately jumped in front of me, shieldingfrom Damon.

"Get away from her" Damon uttered slowly but Dimitri shook his head.

"I won't let you hurt her" Dimitri said, earning a scoff from Damon and before i could even blink, Damon had landed a punch on Dimitri's check.

"Damon!" I called out as Dimitri fell to the ground.

"I would never hurt Clara" Damon uttered through clenched teeth before turning to me.

"You betrayed all of us" He said softly and I sighed.

"Damon, please trust me" I pleaded as I stared directly into his eyes.

"I will trust you after you tellwhy.

Why did you poison my mother? Why did you choose to betray everyone?" His face was soft as he spoke tosoft and could's see he was really having a hard tunderstanding everything but I couldn't tell him just yet, he still wouldn't believeespecially now that everyone knows I gave her poison. "I can't... I can't explain now but I need you to trust me. You promise" I responded and his eyes immediately turned cold.

"You poisoned my mother and only goddess knows if she's going to survive and you wantto trust you? If you can't tellthe truth then I won't go easy on you. From today henceforth, you're banished from my life and this pack. Leave immediately" He said toand I gasped with my eyes wide.

I knew this was going to happen so why was I surprised? "Damon..." "Get her out of here immediately" He ordered no one in particular and before Luca could step forward, Dimitri grabbed my hand.

"Let's go" He uttered and I shook my head before turning back to Damon.

3/4 FERRI, PAVY O Chapter 190 "You don't meant that. You..." "Leave Clara, just get out of my face" He uttered and I frowned as the tears rolled down my checks.

I turned to Delilah and she was glaring directly atwith anger in her eyes I didn't blthem, I didn't blany of them. I just wished they trustedmore...
