Longing For My Rejected Luna

Chapter 25

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

"You won't pick up the phone?" Paula asked.

Wordlessly, I showed them the phone screen for the both of them to see who was calling.

"Alexander?" Paula read the name. She raised her face to meet mine, I shrugged.

"Why is he calling you?" Kat plucked the phone out of my hand, before I could say a word, she had disconnected the call.

"Why did you do that?" Paula was the one asking.

"Because she obviously doesn't want to talk to him. Also, he shouldn't be calling her after what he had done." Kat threw the phone to me.

"You should have let it ring till it disconnects." Paula suggested.

"The ringtone is a disturbance" She simply stated, refilling her glass.

Paula merely shook her head and continued drinking. I was just a spectator, watching them talk about my call and why or why it shouldn't have been disconnected, but I was an absentminded spectator.

Why was Alex calling me? Had I forgotten something at his pack? Or was it about Serenity? Was she dead? Had something happened to her because of the knife wound? Or was he calling because...? Because what?

Fear twisted my gut. Did he know I was here? Had someone told him about this place? I looked at Paula, she was a member of Moon Forest pack, but she was my best friend.

Would she betray me that way? I watched her engage in a discussion with Kat, being the fated mate of Alex's Beta, had she told Gage Forest anything? But I had overheard their conversation, it did not seem like Gage knew who she was with.

I jolted when the phone began ringing in my hand again, I looked at the caller ID, it was still him.

"Still him?" Paula peered into my phone as she asked. "Why is he still calling you?"

Kat stretched her hand and was about to pick my phone when Paula hit her hand. "Aw!" She glared at Paula, rubbing the spot Paula had struck.
