Another Chance for the Luna Queen novel

Chapter 0064 Chapter 0064 Ella POV Im sorry , I have to take this , I said , motioning to my ringing phone .

Its my father .

No problem , Elizabeth answered .

Go ahead , I dont mind .

I smiled appreciatively at her and put the phone to my ear .

Hello ? David is here , my father said , his tone laced with obvious irritation .

He refuses to leave unless he speaks to you .

11 I have nothing to say to him , I replied , equally irritated .

I just saw his latest television appearance , and its clear he has nothing of value to say to me .

I agree , my father said , but I think its time we put an end to all this .

Id like you to speak to him face to face one last time , and if he continues to cause trouble after that , Ill handle it .

I hesitated .

I really didnt want to have anything more to do with David , but he wasnt going to stop bothering me or my family .

It would be difficult for my father and my pack if I continued to let this drag out .

There were social rules about how this sort of thing had to be handled , and as the child of the Alpha , I had to abide by those rules , no matter how much I hated them .

Ill come home right away , I said with a sigh .

Thank you , my father said before hanging up the phone .

I have to go deal with something , I said , smiling awkwardly at Elizabeth .

Im so sorry I have to cut this short .

Is it David ? she asked .

I nodded .

It seems hes determined to speak to me and wont stop bothering my parents until I agree .

Elizabeth stood up and stepped around to my side of the table .

I stood as well , and she wrapped me in a tight hug .

I returned the hug gratefully it was a warm , comforting gesture that did more to boost my confidence and ease my nerves than she could have possibly understood .

Be strong , she whispered .

If you need anything , please dont hesitate to call me .

Were friends just remember that .

Thank you , I said sincerely .

I pulled her into one more quick hug , then turned and rushed out to meet my driver .

The quickest I could get home was in an hour , and my parents were going to have to put up with Davids whining and lies for all of that time , so I couldnt afford to hesitate .

The driver seemed to sense my urgency and took the fastest route possible back to my parents home .

We arrived in slightly under an hour , and to my surprise , it seemed that my parents had not allowed David to enter the house .

I could see him standing at the front steps with my father , who was standing in front of the door , his arms crossed and a stern look on his face as he stared at David expectantly .

What are you doing here ? I demanded as I stepped up the walkway toward the door .

David whirled around to look at me , and a smile of relief crossed his face .

Where have you been ? he asked .

Thats absolutely none of your business , I replied coldly .

What are you doing here ? 1/3 +25 BONUS Chapter 0064 I just want to talk , he said .

Ive tried to give you your space , but you wont reply to any of my letters or calls .

Because I have nothing to say to you , I said , stepping to stand beside my father .

I owe you nothing , David .

Absolutely nothing , and that includes my time .

Youve wasted enough of my life pretending to care about me .

I want to move on with my life , and you should do the same , I dont want to move on , David said firmly .

I want you in my life .

He took a step towards me .

That isnt going to happen , I answered .

The way he was speaking and looking at me made it clear he still intended to win me back somehow .

I felt I had no choice but to tell him , once and for all , that he had to leave me alone .

I didnt expect for it to take so much time to break my ties to him .

He didnt love me , I knew that much from the original timeline .

Because of that , I thought that he would be happy to be rid of me .

I have nothing to say to you , I told him .

I could feel my father step closer behind me , keeping a cautious eye on us in case anything should happen .

David glanced at him nervously , then turned his eyes back to me .

How can you say that ? David asked .

Does our past together mean nothing to you ? Clearly , our future together meant nothing to you , I replied angrily .

Dont try to turn this around on me .

Youre the one who destroyed our relationship after I had already given you a second chance .

I told you , it wasnt my fault ! David argued .

It was Amanda ! I dont know if she used drugs or magic or what she did , but she forced me- Dont lie to me , I commanded , my patience thinning .

Im sick of listening to your lies .

Amanda didnt make you do anything .

She loved you , and you used her , just like you tried to use me .

Thats a lie ! David said , his eyes wide , desperation creeping into his voice .

He truly believed he could still talk me into taking him back , but nothing he had tried was working .

I knew that he was nearing his breaking point .

I had no idea how he might react to when he realized that it was really over .

Behind David , I could see the driver standing at the end of the walkway .

He had a concerned look on his face and he wasnt taking his eyes off of David .

This is pointless , I said firmly .

Theres nothing you can say that will change my mind .

Theres nothing you can do that will fix this .

But I have nothing without you , he pleaded .

From the look on his face , he was being serious .

He really thought that he would lose everything now .

Good .

I hoped that he was right .

You should have thought about that before you disrespected me and betrayed me , I replied coldly .

Youll never have a future without me ! David screamed .

I stared at him with wide eyes as his face turned red with anger and he stepped toward me .

Thats enough , my father said , his voice filled with outrage .

Get off my property and dont ever come near my daughter again .

A the sound of my fathers order , the driver rushed forward and grabbed David by the arm .

A guard came out of seemingly nowhere and grabbed his other arm .

David struggled against their grip with his eyes fixed on me the 2/3 +25 BONUS Chapter 0064 entire time .

I stepped closer to my father as fear gripped me .

I didnt want to know what David might do if he managed to get a grip on me right now .

Id never seen him so angry .

You cant do this ! David yelled , trying to pull free from the guards .

You cant do this to me ! Youve done this to yourself , my father replied coldly .

Davids eyes locked onto mine , and I saw a burning rage there like I had never seen before .

Youre going to pay for this , Ella Rowan , he spat .

Youre going to pay for rejecting me ! I watched as the guards dragged him away , and a shudder of fear went through me .

I knew , deep down , that he meant his threat .
