Chapter 8 -Rescue
Gunner.
When it came time for dinner, I was relieved. I hadn’t stopped thinking about Zee all afternoon. I was worried for her, I didn’t even know if she had a pack. As far as I know we are the only pack in this region. The closest pack wasn’t even on the island, it was nearly three hours away. I couldn’t let it go and kept telling myself over and over again, I should have followed her, I should have gone to check on her. The worry was stewing in my mind.
I was helping Nat set the table for dinner when I suddenly felt this weird headache come on. It was probably from being in the sun all afternoon. I shook my head and went to get some water. I went to the fridge and pulled out a bottle of cold water. As I was drinking, I felt as though someone has just kicked me in the ribs. I spat the water out ac

Zelena. Roses, I can smell roses and it’s making my nose itch. I tried to lift my hand to scratch but I couldn’t move it. I tried the other hand, and I can’t lift that one either. I started to panic. Oh god, what has he done to me now. I want out, please let me free. I tried to open my eyes. They are heavy and dry. I blink my eyes open and try to focus on something around me. Ow, that hurts, I blink my eyes a few times to get the moisture on them. I can start to make out a few objects. I turned my head to the side and there’s a window with blue curtains, a small brown leather armchair sits in front of it. Where the heck am I? Next to the window is a bookshelf with a lot of books piled on top of each other. I've never seen this place before. I look to the end of the bed and there’s and open door leading to a bathroom. I turn my head to the other side and there’s a head laying on the bed. I blink a few more tim

Zelena.As we got to Gunner's room, he gently placed me down on the edge of the bed and went to the other side.“I’d like to use the bathroom” I said standing up slowly.He grabbed my hand and started to walk with me. I stopped and looked up at him and smiled,“I think I can manage on my own”“Oh yeh, sorry” he laughed letting my hands go and sitting on the end of the bed.

Zelena. I opened my eyes slowly. The sun was already shining brightly through the window. I reached my arm behind me and felt around the bed. I sat up quickly and looked around the room. Gunnerwasn’tthere. I took a deep breath and yawned stretching my arms out. Wait, my chestdidn’thurt. I twisted my back from side to side waving my arms in the air, my ribsdidn’thurt at all. I got up from the bed and walked around the room, still no pain. I noticed the bookshelf and decided totake a look. There were so many books, some with older worn covers and others newer looking. I picked up a small red b
The Moon's Descendant Chapter 12 -Smith
Zelena.I headed up the stairs and back to Gunners room. I plopped myself on the bed and stared at the ceiling. Wow, how crazy was that. I thought back to the first day that I saw him, bumping into him in the hall. He made me feel so nervous even then. It makes sense now why Icouldn’tget him out of my head, why I felt so drawn to him. And in the hallway when he bandaged my hand, he is the first person that has ever made me feel safe.It’sall so clear now, this weirdcrazy world that I’ve been plunged into, it’s where I’m meant to be. With him. I sat up on the bed and decided to go and find him.Iwal

Gunner.I sat slumped on the floor, the tears rolled freely down my cheeks. Cole, Smith, Nat, Deena Mum and Dad, all stood in the hallway whispering to each other.“Your what?” Nat said stunned.Ididn’trespond, all I could think of was Zee. Icouldn’tlose her, not now, not ever. I have only just found her, and I know in my heart what we have together, I know the bond is real, I can feel it.&ldqu
The Moon's Descendant Chapter 14 -New Desires
Gunner.The next few days all blurred together, I slept on the chair next to the bed. Zelena had good days and rough days. She would lay motionless for hours and then have a sudden burst of panic thrashing about and screaming but she never fully woke up and never opened her eyes. A few times a day a tray of food was left by the door with fresh flowers. Nat came by at one point asking to come in and see Zelena, the only way I could get rid of her was withmy visa cardand theopportunityto go shopping to buy Zee some clothes and stuff. Cole and Smith flashed me a couple of times to check in, but Ididn’tfeel like talking to them or seeing them. Artemis dropped off another jar of cream but seeing how I barked at h
The Moon's Descendant Chapter 15 -Hunting
Gunner.The light shone through the window on my face, waking me up. Zelena was still asleep holding onto my arm. I brushed the air from her face. She is gorgeous. She has a small purple mark still on her eye lid and the cut has healed over with only a tiny scab left. Her lip was back to normal as are the other cuts and bruises on her face. The healing worked. I lay there admiring her beauty, she is perfect. I leaned forward and sniffed at her hair, she smells so sweet,it’shard not to nuzzle into her. I want to pull her into my arms and hold her, but Idon’twant to wake her. I reached out to stroke the soft skin of her cheek but snapped my hand back.I’d&
The Moon's Descendant Chapter 16 -The Best Friend
Gunner.As we came up to the sand I looked down along the water’s edge, still no people. I ran for the water, prancing over the small waves and diving under the as they got bigger. The blood of the elk washed off with each hit of a new wave. I was swimming in a circle around Cole when he jumped onto my back, playfully pushing me down. I turned my neck and nipped at his hind legs causing him to fall off, splashing into the water. I swam around and hit him in the face with my tail and then slowly made my way back to shore. Walking up onto the sand I shook off the excess water and laid down further up on the dry sand. The sky was blue and cloudless, the sun was getting low but was still warm. Cole shook off and dropped down next to me. He rested his head on his front legs and looked out across the water.*Are you ready to tell me
