The Blind Luna Rejected by Alpha

ACE RAY D KING

TWO WEEKS AGO

"'Ace, things have changed! I mean," Lucia let out with a little chuckle that showed that she was holding up to be strong. This wasn't her usual mood. I wanted to hug her, soothe her and tell her I was here for her, but how on earth was I going to show her?

We both sat on an empty bench outside the hospital, the evening breeze was great and the stars shone brightly. I stared at her for a few seconds before she broke the Silence. "Ace, are you still here?" she asked, turning just everywhere.

I took hold of her hands before giving them a gentle squeeze. She seemed to be lost because she couldn't see me, the accident that happened three weeks ago had taken her sight. "Do you want to hear a secret?" I asked her, making her nod calmly.

"So, aside from taking my breath away, what else do you do for a living?" I said, but instead, tears found their way down her cheeks. She slipped her hands gently from my grip as they lingered on my chest, how I have missed her this past week.

She had been in the hospital for those past weeks.

Her hands finally found their way up my face after multiple touches to find them. "Uhmm, I can't even see how handsome you look any longer! I can't see the amazing clothes you put on that make you stand out and that killer smile that keeps my heart scampering." she said as her tears came out like a faulty tap.

"Shush," I said as I pulled her into a tight hug.

"I always like it when you share your pain with me and not anybody, but right now it hurts me to see those tears flow freely from those gorgeous eyes," I said, placing my hands to wipe her tears, but she pushed them away.

"Did you just say gorgeous Ace? How gorgeous are they?" she asked, staring blankly in the other direction that was in front of her. I stood up before pulling her up for a tight hug. I was glad that she didn't reject them. I kept placing soft and tender kisses on her head to calm her down.

"Ace, I think we should break up! These past few weeks have been the worst and I can't be a burden on you," she let out, making my whole knees go weak, it felt like I was being shot in the chest. "Break up? Why? Don't tell me you are giving up on us because you can't see me?" I asked as I tried to hug her, but she pushed me away.

"The only thing worse is being blind and having no sight or vision. Do you know how that feels, Ace?" she let out as she tried to move but fell on the floor. I moved to help her on her feet but she declined. "Can we talk about this some other time? You need to rest," I let out, but she declined.

"No Ace, we have to stop whatever we have," she let out firmly. "How can I do that, Lucia? I love you regardless of it," I tried to say, but she caught me short. "Regardless of my disability Ace, that's my point! I can't watch your favorite movie with you, walk on my own without the aid of a stick, cook your favorite dish, watch the stars together, what good would I be?" she let out painfully.

"I'm not complaining, Lucia," I tried to make her understand. "Ace, please leave," She let out. "But I don't want to, I love you, Lucia," I said with a mixture of fright and confusion.

"Leave or I scream?" she mumbled.

"Lucia, let's go over everything again," I said.

"Help!". She screamed once more, which caught the attention of those that were passing by. My heart was in chaos, and I felt like it was about to be torn into pieces.

"Don't push me away, Love. I know you can't see, but despite the fact, I still love you. Love isn't what they see, but what is being felt, and trust me okay.

You are the most beautiful and precious creature in the entire universe. I'll make sure that we still cuddle, play and chat together, because I believe that you will be able to see through my eyes, so please.

I'm on my knees, and I'm begging you, don't push me away. Don't push us away, and try to make us work." I pleaded, but she just wouldn't give a listening ear. I was about to move towards her but her friend Camilla was quick to stop me.

"Just leave Ace," she let out as I turned to leave.

***********************

I ran my fingers through my curly hair as I sipped from the bitter content I held. I wasn't supposed to feel this hopeless and miserable. I wasn't supposed to give up on our love, but she had already done that by leaving me for good.

I felt a drop of tears slip down my cheeks and I hated myself for acting this downhearted. "Alpha's are strong, you shouldn't cry," I howled at myself, but I just couldn't help it as the tears came gushing out. My heart was pained and shattered.

"Lucia, I thought we had found love? I thought I had found my soulmate, but then you were a lesson and a heartbreak to my heart," I growled as I hit my chest in pain. "You have hurt me in ways I never expected or deserved. We gave love a chance, but you shattered me. I'm scared and sad because I don't think I will ever recover from this pain," the tears I didn't want to flow came more than I had expected because the strength that held me dearly left.

The door cracked open and Shawn walked in.

"What are you doing here?" I asked but he ignored my questions. "Your father wants you back home, he says it's time Alpha." Shawn let out.

"You know I hate it when you call me that?" I said.

"Get over whatever you feel, you can't let your mother worry about you and Lucian." Shawn, my very best friend since we were born, said before leaving.
