CHAPTER 60

Charlotte's POV

I walked into the small, dirty room where we kept Lucia contained.

Two nurses sat beside her on the bed, one of them stroking her hair gently.

She had a blank, almost dead look in her eyes. Her eyelids looked frail, like they had not moved from their position for a couple of days.

“Where are we with the treatment?”, I said loudly, walking towards the bed.

The nurses immediately sat up, the second one pulling her hand out of Lucia's hair sharply.

“Luna, you're here”, the older one of them said, passing a glance at my eyes before looking down immediately.

I rolled my eyes and looked down at Lucia.

Her eyes were wide open, but it seemed like she could not see or sense anything around her.

“That's not what I asked you”, I said sternly.

I reached out to her pale face. I had almost touched her skin before my hand stopped in mid-air and snapped backwards.

I sighed and removed my focus from her, taking it to the two foolish nurses standing in front of her.

They all looked at me with keen interest on their faces.“Tomorrow, you will leave me and be on the road to protect a package that I plan to deliver to an old friend”, I said.They continued to stare at me with blank expressions on their faces.“Also, I need you to know that possessing knowledge of my whereabouts is a very delicate thing, and you can easily give it up by telling people where you have been, since you follow me everywhere “, I said, studying them closely.I watched as a couple of them shifted uncomfortably after my last statement.

Her face was divided by a wide grin that sprung from one corner of her face to the other.He heaved a deeply happy sigh as her back bounced in the bed.“I'll be walking all over this place soon!”, she said happily.I raised one side of my lips and smiled.“You're doing very well. I knew you would heal”, I said, turning my face to her. Getting Roberta to heal quicker and walk again was not at the tip of my prioritie, but at some point, it became a mandatory thing.She was sulking so much over Vincenzo’s death, I had to give her something to be excited about, so she wouldn't jump from the balcony.She had been very happy in the past days as she taught herself how to walk afresh and pushed on her own pain to get her desired results.

He had not sent any ravens back to me, even though I had sent about a dozen his way.Then, I began to hear whispers of my death amongst some of the other outcasts, including the ones who had banded together to form little packs of their own.At first, I thought of attacking them and beating them to a pulp for even daring to insinuate that Charlotte's unweaned soldiers were enough to kill me, but when I really thought about it, I realised that whosoever started the rumor had given me the greatest weapon anybody could have in their revenge plan; The element of surprise. If the news of my death had reached the outcasts, it only meant that everyone in all the packs and all

    CHAPTER 66 Vincenzo’s POV I let out a soft groan as I shifted with uneasiness on my bed. Flashes of the hot, scorching sun I walked through in the wastelands filled my head, alongside images of Roberta's face as her body fell off the cliff a million times over in my head. I gasped and clenched my throat, my body launching upwards as I woke up swiftly. “Dammit”, I cursed, looking around at the vaguely familiar environment. It took me some time to remember that I was at Tyler's pack, and I had traveled quite a distance across an outcast infested desert to get there because I needed his help with something. I got off the bed and walked around the room, taking in the scenery around me. The room was small and cozy, like all the rooms in Tyler's palace.

You traveled miles in a desert full of men who would have either told the world you were alive, or killed you themselves, and you ended up here. Obviously, I now owe you something for that”, he said, seeming less than pleased.“I'm just trying to pause and recuperate. I have been dealt the wrong side of life lately. How does everyone forget that so quickly?”, I said, my eyes dropping intentionally. Tyler shifted back a little, a look of guilt flashing in his eyes.“I realise that I haven't told you how sad

There were countless flower vases lined up by the window pane. The sun's light helped to accentuate the beauty of the flowers as their sweet scent filled the atmosphere. They looked and smelled just like the ones Vincenzo had planted in the garden at the palace for me.A small smile drew itself across my face as my mind began to bombard me with the fond memories that Vincenzo and I shared in that garden.“They are just like the ones I planted for you, aren't they?”, I heard a familiar voice ask behind me.It cannot be.I rapidly sat up on my bed and turned my head a few inches to the left of my bed where I had heard the sound for.True to my suspicions, it was Vincenzo standing there, lookin
