Longing For My Rejected Luna

Chapter 19

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

She rushed over to me and pulled me into a hug.

"Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry Darling. I came as soon as I heard...."

"Heard of the mate bond dissolution or that I just returned?" I asked her, hugging her back.

"I'm sorry darling that I was not there to stand as an emotional support during the dissolution, but I'm happy Paula was there. At least, you had one of us." She placed wild kisses on my face which made me laugh.

My crazy friends.

"Actually, I wasn't there." Paula told her, as she sat up from the bed to wrap Katherina in a warm hug.

"And Hello, Kat"

"Hello, Paul's. You just came?" She studied Paula's dark blue denim and a cropped, turtle necked top.

"Nah, I've been here a while" She informed her.

Kat grinned. "You look good, as always"

Paula grinned. "So do you"

"You girls, I'm here. I'm the reason for the moment" I pouted, but they knew I was joking. I was happy to have two of my friends in here with me, especially Kat, after such a long time.

Katherina had been my best friend from childhood, we did almost everything together and she was everything I was not.

Sassy, outspoken, funny and can be vicious when the occasion called for it.

She had complemented my quiet, reserved self. My father had given our relationship a thumbs up not because I needed his approval to have friends, but he liked the fact that Katherina was everything his daughter was not.

He saw it as a perfect combination.

Fire and Ice.

Well, Paula was actually the Ice if truth were to be told, she could be cold and fierce, while Kat was the fiery furnace that could burn dangerously when tampered with.

I was somewhere between.
