Book:The Grateful Rejection Published:2024-6-2

“IT WAS YOUR MOTHER’S CHOICE THAT SHE DIED! I DIDN’T FORCE HER TO DIE! I DIDN’T FORCE HER TO AGE! SHE KNEW EVERYTHING BEFORE SHE MARRIED ME! IT WAS HER CHOICE!
AND YOU’RE CALLING ME A ABSENT FATHER? I BABBIED YOU TILL YOU WERE 170 YEARS OLD! I HAND FED YOU TILL THAT TIME, I TOOK YOU EVERYWHERE YOU WANTED TO GO! I GAVE YOU EVERYTHING! WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT ME TO DO???” Sebastain shouted at her. All his anger coming out of his eyes in the form of tears.
“I WANT YOU TO PUT ME FIRST FOR THE REST OF ETERNITY!” she shouted
“Ever since she came to your life you have forgotten about me! Before her.. I was your priority and now I am not. And after all of that you decide to have a child with her? A FUCKING BASTARD THAT BOY IS!” She spat venomously.
“KRISTEN! WATCH HOW YOU SPEAK OF MY SON!” Sebastain’s yelled at her shaking in fury.
“See! You’re telling at your own daughter for that bastard! I’ll kill him! I KILL THAY SON OF A BITCH!” She yelled pulling her hair as she ran out of the basement. Sebastain followed her as she went to Hunter’s direction. Sebastain knew what he had to do but he and his lycan didn’t wanted to do this. She is after all his daughter, his first born. The child is merely misguided.. but she was all far gone now. Nothing can stop her.. apart from her father.
Kristen burst open the door where Nora and her son slept peacefully, she was horrified to see Nora back, “You brought her back?? Fine! I’ll kill her even if it means you’ll die too. I have always been a mumma’s girl anyway” a tear fell from her eyes as she looked at her father for the last time.
The Huntsons ran behind Sebastain, Arora was about to interrupt that maniac when Jacob stopped her, “It’s his fight now.” He said.
“Don’t do this Kristen.. don’t make me do this” Sebastain whispered with a weight in his heart. Kristen scoffed and ran towards Hunter with her hand raised.
Blood filled her mouth as it dripped down her chin. Her body fell sideways as a cracking sound was heard throughout the house. Sebastain pulled out the rest of her spine as Kristen fell on the ground dead.
Sebastain fell on his knees collecting his daughter in his arms as he cried, “Why did you do this Kristen?? WHY??” He cried rocking her. He kissed his daughters cheeks, “My beautiful daughter!” He looked at her. Her eyes were wide open but they held no life in them, her skin started becoming cold as he held her close. Stephan picked up a stiring Hunter in his arms and took him out of the room. The boy is too young to see death.
The night was calm peaceful after so long, there was no sound apart from the winds that brushed passed through the nooks and corners of the tree’s branches.
A gasp left her mouth as she sat awake on the bed, Sebastian woke up next to her, “Nora” he said with a sad smile. Nora looked at him with tears in her eyes, “Sebastain!” She whispered cupping his face. She smashed her lips to his, feeling the soft contours of his lips after years. They cried in the kiss as Sebastain pulled her on his laps and hugged her tightly as the two cried happily in each other’s arms.
“I missed you so much, love!” He cried kissing her face, she let out a series of giggles that melted Sebastain’s heart. He started tickling her more as her giggles turned into full blown laughter, her laugh was like the music of heaven to his ears.
“I missed you too!” She said kissing his nose, “I missed you so much!” She said looking into his warm brown eyes that twinkled with love.
The door to their bedroom opened, “MOMMMYYYY!!!” Hunter screeched jumping on bed trackling his mother in a big hug, “Where did you go mommy?? You know how much I missed you??” He pouted wrapping his legs on her waist and his arms around her neck.
Nora wrapped her arms around her little angel, content finally filled her soul, “I was on a trip baby as daddy told you.. I am sorry for being gone so long! I promise I won’t ever leave you my prince!” She said kissing his face.
Sebastain furrowed his brows looking at her. She sadly looked at Sebastain as their son was hugging his mother, “I was always here baby. I could see you, hear you but you couldn’t” she explained with a small smile, “I was always with you” she said making tears appear in Sebastian’s eyes.
“Now you’re not leaving me, na?” Hunter asked pulling back from the hug looking at his mother with his beautiful brown and blue grey eyes.
“No my prince! I am never leaving you.. ever!” She said making a smile appear on Hunter’s face, “I love you Mommy!” He said hugging his mother again.
“I love you too baby!” She replied with a smile. Her heart filled with adoration, she was finally able to say that to him.
“What about me?” Sebastain butted in with a pout. Hunter pulled his father in a hug, “I love you too daddy!” He giggled
“I love you too my prince” he replied with a smile.
“Mommy can I sleep with you tonight?” Hunter asked his mother.
“Of course my prince?” She replied putting him in between the two.
After a minute of silence a Hunter opened his mouth, “Mommy do you know, daddy always smells werid at night but today he is not smelling weird” he said making the two chuckle, of course he is not drinking today. Hunter kept on talking to his mother for almost an hour, neither Nora or Sebastain had the heart to stop him from talking to his mother. After taking so long Hunter fell asleep, “Finally!” Sebastain breathed out in relief making Nora hit his shoulder playfully.
He took her hand in his and kissed the back of her hand, “I love you, wifey” he said looking at his wife. Nora blushed at his comment, “I love you too puppy!” She giggled out. He growled playfully at his old nickname, “Come here mommy!” He pulled her on him, “Hunter is here” she scolded him as Sebastain pushed Hunter in Nora’s place and pulled Nora in the middle, “I want mommy too” he copied Hunter’s voice making her giggle. He spooned his wife who spoon their son, “Thank you so much for everything, moya malen’kaya zhena” he yawned sniffing her calming honey and baby powder smell.
“Thank you for everything, ma brute de mari” (my brute of a husband) she said as his refreshing rain on soil with a hint of musk.
“I love you, Nora” he said falling asleep.
“I love you too, Sebastain!” She too fell asleep in her Erastis, her husband’s arms. They were at peace at last.
The End.
