Chasing The Rejected

-DAMON-

“Let go!” Clara screamed as she pushed at my chest after a while as if finally coming to her senses but I held onto her tightly.

“No, don’t push me away. I’m sorry” I murmured but she kept on shouting and trying to push me away.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Let gol” She screamed again but I didn’t want to.

“Damon let go of her, this isn’t good for her health” Delilah screamed and I finally let go. Clara hurriedly crawled away from me and curled up in a ball as she cried by the wall. She looked so small, so broken.

Delilah immediately rushed towards her and wrapped her arms tightly around her.

“Come on, let me take you back in” Delilah murmured as she slowly helped Clara up from the ground.

“Clara.” I called out and tried to reach out for her but she flinched and turned away holding onto Delilah. She was behaving like I was a monster that would kill her or infect her with just a single touch and as much as that hurt me, I tried my hardest not to tell it show on my face.

Delilah pulled her into the room and I was about to go with them when Luca grabbed my hand,

“Give her space for a while and let her speak with Delilah. Her head is not the right space now and you won’t be helping matters by pushing her buttons” He murmured and I clenched my fist.

“Fine, I’ll give her thirty minutes to cool down, nothing moto

than that” I murmured then yanked my hand out of his grip as I sat down.

“I’ll take your mother outside to calm her down” My father uttered but I didn’t even acknowledge his words which made him sigh but he didn’t say anything after that and just led my mother away.

Luca and I sat there in silence for a while and I tried my hardest to hear Clara. Whether it was her voice, her laugh, her cough, anything at all but I was met with silence and the fact that I didn’t know what was going on in thet room p***d me th* off.

to get up when Delilah walked out of the room.

“I can’t take this anymore” I muttered and was about to get up

“It’s the mother” She muttered with anger in her that showed me that whatever I was about to hear, I wouldn’t like it.

“Who’s mother?” I questioned as I slowly stood up from the bench.

“Clara said Liam’s mother was the one who told her she was barren. Apparently she had been trying to get pregnant for Liam but it hadn’t been working so Liam’s mother suggested they go to the doctor to see if anything was wrong and she told Clara that she was Barren but Clara never got to see the text results or hear it directly from the Doctor’s mouth. She didn’t question it at that time because she had thought that was also the reason. That b***h caused this all” Delilah muttered as she clenched her fist and I clenched my jaw.

“I need to speak with Clara” I murmured and was about to walk past Delilah when she placed her hand on my chest to stop me.

“She doesn’t want to see you, Damon” She uttered and I glared at her before swatting her hand away.

y wife for crying out loud i muttered before walking into the room and as soon as Clara saw me, she wiped away her tears and turned away.

“Leave” She muttered slowly and I sighed.

“Clara, just…”

“Leave Damon! I don’t want to see you! I don’t want to feel your presencel Just leave me alone!” She screamed as loud as she could but that wasn’t going to push me away because despite the anger she had in her heart towards me, I was the first person she called when she was in danger.

“I know you’re angry at me and you have every right to be but please don’t push me away. I want to be next to you, to my wife” i murmured and with each sentence, I moved closer to her,

“Your wife? You mean the wife you neglected all because you found out she couldn’t give you a wife?! The wife you shunned out of your life for being barren? The wife you sent divorce papers to already signed? I’m not your wife and after I get better, I’ll leave just like you wanted and you’d never get to see me again” She muttered and I immediately rushed towards her and tried holding her but she kept pushing me

away.

Let go

oof me! Let go of me, Damon!” She screamed as tears streamed down her cheeks.

“I’m sorry Dahlia, I know what I did was wrong but I was just being stubborn. I never wanted to divorce you because I don’t want to lose you” I murmured and she scoffed.

“Your words mean nothing to me anymore. Your words are just like empty promises, everything you have said, all the feelings you have shown me were all just lies” She muttered and I shook my head.

“That’s a lie, you know that’s a lie. Every emotion I showed you was real Clara. I just got carried away by my anger and I regret it dearly because all the times I had to spend away from you, all the times I had to fight myself from running to you felt like torture. I couldn’t breathe these past few days without you…”

“Shut up Damon!” She screamed but I didn’t stop.

“You are my wife Clara and I don’t fucking care if this marriage was fake at the beginning, it doesn’t feel fake to me and I know it doesn’t feel fake to you. You have to understand that I’ve never liked anyone as much as I like you and I don’t know how to do things right because It is new to me but I’m willing to do it better this time. Just give me the chance, Clara” I pleaded then grabbed onto her hand but the look in her eyes didn’t change.

“When I needed you the most you weren’t there and that’s all that matters now, that’s all i can think of. I don’t believe your words and the divorce will pull through. This marriage is over and done with”…
