The Luna Legacy - Genesis

Chapter 19 - You Can't Run

"You agreed to come talk to me before you leave, and who is Alex?" I hear the anger in his voice.

Why is he angry? I bet he must be mad that I got away, that he didn't get to carry out his plan. It must be so disappointing when every woman doesn't know her place on her back in his bed. I am in no mood to stroke anyone's ego.

"I said I would come see you, but that was a mistake. Like I said Noah this would never work, we would never work. If our two worlds collide it would be disastrous plus I already told you I am not like your women who you can Fu...." I pause before I say anything else, I need to control my emotions, especially with the kids in the car.

Why do I even let him get me so wound up anyway? Why am I mad at him, after all I already knew his type? Nothing he does should affect me this way. Why was I expecting anything from a man I never even knew? Am I losing my shit?

"How did you get this number, lose it!" I say and hang up the phone then turn it off.

Abby turns to me and say, "did something happen after we left the restaurant, you guys looked friendly? What did the note say"?

"Don't worry about anything, its fine, I just think that it's a mistake to pursue anything right now and an even bigger mistake to waste anyone's time. I won't lead him to believe that things could be more than they are already. It's pointless for me to encourage Noah" I say to Abby.

I am seething mad, but I don't let her know, I act like I'm cool. I won't allow anyone, not Noah, not anyone to awake things inside of me that they have no intentions of reciprocating. I did that for too many years with Alex, I won't do that to myself again.

We get to the place and it's a ranch style Inn, it's a step way down from the hotel but it's also nice. After checking in and our bags are brought to our rooms and the receptionist takes on a tour of the property.

There is a nature trail, a river that runs through the property and a pool. After the brief tour we got back to our rooms, and I get a call from the reception desk that I have a visitor and I know exactly who it could be.

First, he gets my phone number without me giving it to him then he follows me to this place what the fuck was this guy's problem. I asked the receptionist who it was and as expected 'Noah', I head down to reception, and I take the note from my suitcase with me.

I see him and as usual Elijah is with him, he is standing there looking like a Greek god. He watches me intently as I walk toward him with a serious look on his perfect face. I stand in front of him, cross my arms and I ask,

"What are you doing here Noah?"

he gets closer to my face standing just inches away from me staring into my eyes, blue eyes serious. Is he trying to intimidate me? I won't cave.

"I don't like people who can't be trusted, you assured me we would talk before you leave, then you just left".

I rolled my eyes and as I was about to speak, he says:

"If you roll your eyes at me one more time you will regret it"

So, I rolled my eyes, this time more dramatic.

"I didn't say when you would regret, sweetheart" he whispered in my ear softly and he stresses the 'sweetheart'.

I backed away from him a bit until he wasn't standing so close to me. Having him stand directly in my personal space was clouding my judgment, and I fear I might cave.

"Noah why are you doing this? just let me be, please. I am sure you have better things to do than to chase me around. What are you even doing here, how did you find out where I am staying? I don't like being hunted" I say sternly.
