After an hour’s wait, Sam returned. He knew that sometimes the Luna stayed at the Elemental Guard Barracks, especially if her group were on serving duty or punishment chores. The omega had thought this was the case and reported it back to Sam.
"Ah yes, I think I remember something about that. Apologies Omega Archie, I must have got my days mixed up. Our Luna’s schedule changes frequently, " Sam said, and he thought nothing of it that night. Neither did an exhausted Raoul, who came into an empty bed. He also thought she must be at the barracks. "I need to spend some quality time with her soon. I have really neglected her as of late!" Roaul thought as he drifted off to sleep.
The next morning, Rose and David noticed that Jamie was missing. "That is not like her," Rose said. "She loves sword skills!"
David said, "Well, maybe she is ill. She has been looking extremely tired lately." Rose nodded her head in agreement.
Blackthorn had been pacing all day, which rather annoyed Raoul because he was trying to concentrate on some paperwork. "Blackthorn, can you give it a rest!" Snapped Raoul.Blackthorn growled and said "We need to see Kitten!"Raoul sighed, Blackthorn had said the same thing over and over again. Raoul looked at the clock and saw it was supper time. Jamie would be finished with her afternoon lessons and go back to the pack house for a bite to eat before going into the city. He promised
Somewhere underground Jamie was slipping in and out of consciousness. She hardly felt the cold anymore and she was so tired. She dreamed of being in Raoul’s arms. "Pathetic! Why do you rely on a man to protect you? You are so weak! You got yourself into this mess, you can get yourself out. Or are you just going to wallow in your own weakness and let this cock scum beat you again?" A cold voice said, inside her head. Just then, she heard the stone slab being moved. Every two hours, the guard would drag her out, beat her and then sling her back into the water dungeon. She had had six beatings so far, and was feeling incredibly weak at this point. Ironically, the cold water had helped with the swelling, but not so much with the broken ribs and the broken nose. The beatings had not been a wasted opportunity. Bit by bit, she looked around the room.
Jamie did not have any visions or dreams when she was out, a small mercy which she was thankful for. When she did wake up, she was in a light and airy medical room. She tried to move herself in a sitting position, but she felt every muscle in her body ache.Suddenly, Fluff jumped up on her bed, "Ah, you are awake!" He said happily. Jamie noticed that Sam was sleeping in a chair next to her bed. Her heart sank as she hoped Raoul would be there."He got called away by the King," Fluff said, obviously annoyed at the situation. "He's going to lose her if he doesn't be careful," Fluff reasoned.Jamie nodded sadly as she asked, "Care to catch me up on what I have missed?
Raoul panicked when he saw the empty room and rushed to find the doctor. He found him sitting in his office writing up some notes."Where is she?" Raoul asked angrily. "Ah, my Lord, good news! She awoke a few hours back and has made a remarkable recovery. It must be her water element coming back. The Luna has been discharged on the condition that she has plenty of bed rest and a proteinrich diet. " The Doctor said happily. Raoul relaxed a little. "So she is back at the pack house resting then?" The Doctor looked a bit uncomfortable. He really did not want to break the news that the Lord’s Luna
Jamie had cried herself to sleep the previous day. She could not believe the person she loved had brought up the fact that he had brought her for 20 gold pieces. Was that all she was worth to him? If it were not for the bond, would he have chosen someone else?Rose came into her room with Fluff. "Morning! How are you feeling?" She said cheerfully."Ok, I suppose." Jamie mumbled."Hmm yes, well, of course everyone knows about the argument you had with Raoul. So it is my mission to cheer you up today. So, how do you feel about going shopping? "Shopping? " Jamie said, confused.
Jamie woke up to find she was on a familiar red velvet sofa. Her head was banging and she felt sick."Urgh!" she moaned as she tried to sit up."Hang on a minute, Fire Sprite." Eric said as he came over to help her into a sit position."I don’t need your help, thank you," Jamie said. She tried to sound cross, but to be honest, her head hurt too much."Well, I can see that,”Eric chuckled. "Here, sip this and take two of these pills. They will help with the sickness and headache. "Jamie did as She was told and soon felt her headache ease. The drink had a slight metallic taste to it. "What is this?" Jamie
Jamie, for the second time in 24 hours, woke up in a different place than when she went to sleep. When she stirred, she first noticed she was in a soft bed that was familiar. The second was that there wasRaoul’s large naked body next to her. His arms heldher tightly against him. Jamie tried to move out of his arms, but it causedRaoul stir from his slumber."Five more minutes, Kitten, before we start arguing," he said in a sleepy voice. He nuzzled her neck, and Jamie could feel her heart thawing a bit."Raoul!" Jamie said.
Two weeks later.Jamie had moved back into the pack house and had been on complete bed rest for the week. In the second week, she returned to training. Jamie had also returned to The Cat’s Claw. Eric had been true to his word and not tried to make a move on her. However, Jamie sometimes caught him staring at her longingly. She ignored it as best she could.Raoul and Jamie had not been intimate over the last two weeks. Jamie said she was too tired, but the truth was she had not quite forgiven him. Raoul had been making the effort and was spending a bit more time with Jamie. Jamie, on the other hand, tried to be a bit more understanding. Relationships were about compromising, she thought.Jamie
