Longing For My Rejected Luna

Chapter 34

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

"What do you mean by you want to leave the pack?" Kat came close to him.

"This is not your problem, Kat." He told her quite harshly.

"Don't talk to me in that tone." She warned, steel in her voice. But Paula and I knew Kat would rather be brave to the end, even if it sucked at her soul, than

openly cry.

"Then don't interfere, Kat." His tone retained that harshness.

She punched him straight on the nose, he yelped in pain. She did not break it but

it was enough to redden the bridge of his nose. "I said don't talk to me in that tone."

"Then leave here. It was Erika and I, not the both of us." He was angry at the punch she'd thrown at him. Jace was usually the calm guy, he never went searching for trouble, even as a kid but that was not to say he was weak. Far from it, he was strong. He had an Alpha wolf which was not a surprise since dad was an Alpha.

"Why do you want to leave the pack, Jace?" Kat ignored his statement.

"He wants to protect me because people are talking." I spat in anger.

"That's bullshit!" Kat still had her glares on him.

"Erika, I have to leave. It's only for the best, I am trying to help you." He continued.

"Don't tell me that!" I screamed. "How dare you, you selfish brat?!"

"Stop calling me name, Erika." He coolly said.

"Or what? Or what, Jace?!" I picked the forms I'd dropped on my seat when this whole thing started and threw at him. "You signed those forms! You signed them!"

He le' out a sigh. "What has this got to do with anything?"
