The Royal Luna Chapter 21
Austin P.O.VShe was acting too calm. Why was she acting so calm? Go for a lie down? Bull. Even the guard's reassurance that she made it to the bedroom doesn't reassure me.But I listen to the conversation around me. They're discussing the attack on Silverstone."Why aren't they attacking? I mean, they're not even engaging in a fight" Clive says, frowning."It doesn't make sense" David agrees."Unless they are doing what Cecily said they do when they attack" Dad says thoughtfully."You think it's a diversion?" I ask and he nods."Red Blood might be after the other three kids" Clive offers. Of course, Red Blood want to take out the Alpha's family. They've killed the Luna now they're after the kids. "I mean, they drew him out and one of them got in the house""And then Lucius went back for them. That's four targets" Mom says and it makes a lot more sense now."They weren't expecting him to come back because they went with three to kill the Luna but one this time. They were only trying t

Austin P.O.VI should have known she would leave. She's stubborn and would do anything for her family. I'm so stupid. Damnit! I slam my hand on Dad's desk, hating how blind I was."Don't blame yourself, Austin. She did what she thought was right" it's not the first time Mom has told me that. She's been gone three days. She would have told us when she arrived at Silverstone despite how angry I would have been when she would. But no call came so we can only assume the worst. I've tried contacting her through mind-link but even with my mark my mind is blocked from hers."Does her family know?" I ask but before any of them can say anything, Dad comes through the doors followed by two men. One of them looks about the same age as Dad, the other around my age. Both of them look like my mate. The older one has bright green eyes and brown hair matching my mate's. The younger one has exactly the same colouring- clearly a strong trait. Dad had told them to come over to discuss the attack and to

Cecily's P.O.VThey leave me in the cell. The whip is gathered up, avoiding the end as they wind it up, leaving a small trail of blood behind them. They allow me to be unchained and the moment my wrists drop to the ground I groan in pain. My back sends a flare of agony through my body with every small movement I make. I don't know how I manage but I finally manage to crawl my way over to the corner. I collapse, uncaring at how unladylike I might look. I lie on my front for a moment, taking in deep breaths with my face buried in the musty cloth of the thin blanket they let me have. I lift myself up, shoving down the groan of pain as the torn muscles on my back protest at the movement. I drag myself to sit up, not liking feeling so exposed when I lie down.That's when I notice the man outside the cage. He's grinning at me wickedly and I'm fearful of what he's doing. He's just standing there, grinning. I look at his hands and I see a little red light. It's the camera. I've noticed him ho

Cecily P.O.VI know I'm in deep trouble the moment I hear him coming. I hear him shouting. He is raging. I'm still lying in the position his son left me in and my neck is still throbbing. Not long after the son did what he did someone came in. They wiped up the cut, muttering angrily. They roughly picked me up, did something to the back of my neck. Another torture device no doubt.My back still sends stabs of pain and the most recent wave caused me to feel like I couldn't breathe."Bring the stamps" I hear him shout. "I don't care what they're called! That bitch is going to learn a lesson about lying to me" he must be shouting really loud because a minute or two later, he barges into the cell. It's an understatement saying he's raging. He's a whole new level of furious. In his hand is a black metal bar and on the end are four interlocking circles, with a cross in the middle, the points touching where the circles cross. The end is sizzling. "Having a good little nap, Miss Turner? Becau

I wait in the seat beside her bed, scrolling through my phone. My dad's given me some Alpha stuff to do, per my request, to get my mind off killing Red Blood's Alpha. They are vulnerable; we know where they are. No one's come in to see her; they're not allowed. Only two people at a time, not including the doctor. Luke's been in and out constantly, Alpha Turner has come in every now and then too. I've given them time alone with her, not wanting to make them wait to see her. As much as I want to stay with her, I need to let her family get priority.She's been out for sixteen hours.Dwayne had done a physical scan on her, smothering her whole back in a cream to help draw out infection. If we had waited any longer to get her out of there, he fears that she wouldn't recover at all. She's lucky to be alive as it is. Due to being treated hours after the wounds were inflicted, it means it'll take longer to heal and she'll be left with horrendous scars. It'll be a constant reminder of what the

As soon as I pull the top over her head she stills. She then suddenly rockets towards the bathroom and I hear the sound of her throwing up. I jog to the bathroom to see her curled over the toilet seat, holding her hair back. I step up and hold it for her as she empties her stomach of silver.When she finishes, she sighs and stands up straighter. I hear a small whimper but it's cut off with the toilet flushing."You alright now?" I ask, releasing her hair so she can rinse out her mouth. She nods, holding her head higher. She takes a deep breath, calming herself down."I'm fine. Doc said I'd be throwing up, right?" she smirks at me before filling her mouth with a handful of water. She spits a few seconds later before straightening, covering her neck where the cut on her neck is. The edge of the gash is still visible no matter how she positons her hair. I watch her with one hip and shoulder braced against the door frame and arms crossed. "Let's go. I want to see my dad""He's in Dad's of

Cecily P.O.VI sit next to Austin at the top circle table. Everyone is talking and laughing around me but I don't feel it. Despite all the smiling faces I feel depressed. I feel empty, like I'm missing something. I am. I'm missing my wolf and my mate's mark. Austin nudges my arm lightly with his elbow. I snap into the present where he is looking at me with a concern that's matched on everyone else's face at our table. I blink, looking up at him."Are you okay?" he asks softly. I nod."I'm fine. I'm just not hungry" I look down at the plate that was put in front of me. Everyone else is nearly finished but I've not even picked up my cutlery."You need to eat, Cecily" Austin urges but I shake my head, slamming my lips together."Austin, I'm not hungry. I can't eat anything, not until I get the silver out my system" I've been throwing up all afternoon, little bits of silver coming out with my breakfast and lunch. Just like yesterday. It's been three days since Austin brought me back but m

Austin's P.O.VI'm woken by the whimpering of pain that cuts through the silence of my bedroom. I glance at the clock quickly- I've only slept three hours but they're the best three hours sleep I've had in days. Cecily cries out softly beside me, fingers screwing up in the covers and her head tossing on the pillow. I sit up quickly, letting the covers fall, exposing my bare chest to the air."Cecily" I reach to touch her shoulder but the second my skin touches hers, she screams. It's a scary scream of fear and pain that breaks my heart. "Cecily, it's just me. Wake up" her whole body shakes and she begins to tear up in her sleep."I'm sorry" she sobs out, chest heaving as she struggles to control her emotions. "Leave me alone!" she thrashes on the bed, crying out at the pain that her back causes. "Please, no more! Please, not the whip again" I know she's having a nightmare, reliving the memory of her time in Red Blood. I will kill those bastards for doing this. Not only have they physi
