THE MISJUDGED LUNA 43
"I do not understand you mother. What are you talking about?" Roman asked with a frownWhen did he order someone to be tortured? It has been so long that he couldn't even remember it.Luna Brenda did not keep her mouth shut. She promised to make Roman apologize to Adrianna. she knew how it is in jail and then adding torture to it, and she could understand clearly now why the girl ran away in the first place.Late that night, Luna Brenda told Roman everything that Adrianna had told her about how she had been tortured and starved of food. She also told Roman that she was disappointed in the man because she never expected that he could do something like that to his subject or someone that looked exactly like his wifeRoman stood there in shock. He has specifically instructed the guards not to harm her. He had asked for her to be interrogated only and for them not to torture her. Now, he blamed himself for not going to check on her while she was in prison"Mom, I promise you, I never knew

After a while, Dianne calmed down. Roman kept caressing her shoulder down to her back"Come on, dear. Can you tell me what happened? Was it that scary?"Dianne nodded before shifting, "It's Adrianna"Roman froze when he heard Dianne call Adrianna's name. He wondered if perhaps the moon goddess had appeared in her dream to tell her of what happened at the study.Dianne held Roman's shirt,"I… she… I couldn't tell her that she was my sister. We both separated and I wasn't able to tell her that we were both sisters" her cry increased again causing Roman to wonder what actually was making her cry"Dianne, if that it is, you should be happy that Adrianna has not separated from you yet. Go and tell her that you both are sisters"Dianne shook her head, "I can't. Adrianna doesn't like me. She wouldn't even want to talk to me if I asked her to. She hates me so much already""There is always a way," Roman said to her.It is true that she and Adrianna always had clashes but he knew Adrianna had

Roman woke up after a while, refreshed and energized. Staring at him was none other than his friend, Lucas who he had asked to come as fast as he could."Lucas?" He asked, unsure of who he was seeing. Maybe he was still sleeping.He asked for the man's help and he came the next day. He was amazed."Hello Alpha"Roman laughed as he reached for the man only to get up naked. Lucas held his laugh when he saw how Roman struggled to wrap himself with the bedsheet."I'll leave you to dress," he said to Roman before leaving the room.Roman quickly dressed up before rushing out of the room to find Lucas. He has missed the man so much, he realized how lonely life would be without him.When he got to the living room, he didn't find Lucas there so he went in search of him.Roman found Lucas speaking with Dianne. He didn't care what they were talking about, he made his way to them,"Lucas!" The man turned to him with a bright smile,"Hello Alpha," Roman pulled the man into a warm hug."I've missed

Andriana could not understand what was happening but she knew and felt that something was wrong.At first it was the calmness of Dianne that baffled her. Now this, what would have made her want to talk to me and to make the matters worse, alone.Andriana watched Roman closely and tried if she could get a clue of what was going on from his expression but Roman maintained a gaze that only speaks of peace.She got carried away by mere looking at him again and it took her all the strength she could monster to stop her from jumping on him.She fails to understand why she would try to fall in love with him after all that had transpired between them.Andriana said "no problems, if you want me to talk to her, I will '' she mentioned it to him so that he will know that speaking with her is not what she would want to do, at least not now.Roman told her to wait as he turned to go and call Dianne so that they could have some privacy. Meanwhile Roman had it in mind to stay behind the doors so tha

Adrianna's face turned into a face of confusion. She just couldn't believe what Roman was saying to her. Did a bird give birth to a chicken? She wondered.She continued to look at the man, who was waiting for a response from her. She opened her mouth to speak only to close them again,What the hell! She doesn't even know what to say. Who was Dianne again? Why on earth does she want to talk to her alone? What did they have to talk about? Why should she agree to it?Roman wanted to ask her to say something, but he waited for her to decide. Her eyes were rolling left and right as she thought of what to say or do.She didn't think she would like to be alone with Dianne. She had had many dreams of that girl and without any solid proof, she knew that Dianne wasn't someone she should try to follow, especially alone.She wasn't a wolf, she wasn't sure she would be able to fight someone like Dianne. The girl reminds her of the werewolf princess. Even when she had the strength to fight her, the

“Alright, let's go wherever it is you can get your confidence,” Adrianna replied.She wanted to inform Luna Brenda first before she made such a decision to leave the pack house but since Dianne was going to apologize to her, she was happily looking forward to it“I have never really left the pack house before” she informed Dianne as they both walked out of the compound entirely.Her heart was beginning to pound in her rib cage as she remembered the last time she came out of this place. It was that same night she had escaped from jail.It was late at night, so she couldn't tell where she was going or which way was which. Adrianna looked at Dianne, who began to explain to her places around as they walked into the woods.Even though Dianne hasn't apologized yet, Adrianna was already creating a space in her heart for the girl. If her apologies are sincere, she doesn't see a reason to continue hating her. Besides, the nightmare might only have some psychological effects because Dianne had

Dianne rushed into the house with bruises all over her body and tears on her cheeks. She didn't find anyone in the living room as she cried. She called for help and that was when some servant rushed in."Luna Dianne" they called as they made their way to where she lay on the ground. They could all see the bruises and blood on her arms and neck"Luna Dianne, what happened to you?" One of them asked but Dianne didn't stop crying.She wondered why the idiots were only staring at her and not rushing to get Roman already."Where is my husband? Where is the Alpha?" She asked like a mad woman.She kept rolling and crawling on the ground. Her voice intensify as she screamed and wailed hoping that wherever Roman was, he would come out alreadyOne of the servants rushed to get alpha Roman since Dianne wasn't saying a thing to them. As he rushed to Roman's room, he barged in but couldn't find Roman there.The man hurried to get the Luna instead. Luna Brenda, who was taking a nap woke up in shock

"Adrianna!" Roman roared before rushing to her. The animal stood beside her, not leaving her for one second. Even when they got close, the animal was ready to fight them.The animal was like a wolf but bigger than any wolf Roman or Lucas has ever seen. Its eyes were red as he stood in front of Adrianna's body protectively, making them confused.His claws were longer and sharper than Romans knew that if they touched a person, they would leave large marks. He wondered where the thing came from or what it was. Did he kill Adrianna? His thoughts went wide but he couldn't open his mouth to speak as his head was blank thinking Adrianna was dead"Who are you and what do you want?" Lucas asked the animal who could only growl. His eyes were dark red and filled with rage"Why did you hurt her!" Roman roared at it as he spanned out of his daze. He was ready to fight it but instead, Adrianna groaned in pain.Everyone forgot about themselves to stare at her. She had bruises and a broken arm but sh

“You did what?”Asher sighed. His Beta’s jaws was currently hanging off the floor. He had known Victor would strongly oppose, known also that Elise was one of the few creatures on this earth that managed to unnerve the life out of him. The woman creeps Asher out too, and once, maybe he’d liked the dangerous and sexy type. But he was literally a married man now and the only reason Elise would be coming to the pack was so that she can help find Kihara.“You invited her here? Are you mad?” Victor continued loudly.“Keep your voice down okay,” Asher hushed. “You know Victor, that we’ve been doing this ourselves for a while and failing. We need help, and she’s the best help we can get.”Victor shook his head, the look of horror on his face still not clearing. “Of course she’s the best Asher, she’s a fucking bounty hunter, hired killer, assassin,” Victor counted on his fingers, his eyes seemingly widening each time he dropped a finger. “And a fucking were-snake Asher, let’s not forget about

Twilight pack had gradually declined to a somber graveyard in the absence of it’s Luna. The halls bleak and lacking of color, every wolf felt the same bleakness inside of them, as though an emptiness had been carved in their hearts. More cruel was that they had no idea what to do. To mourn their Luna? For if she was dead, then that was the right thing to do. Or to hope? To dare look up to the moon and hope that she was still alive and that one day she would be returned? It did not seem likely, but it was a possibility they were willing to entertain. For their alpha, he needed it, needed that hope. That was all he ran on.Hunting down Sebastian had never become more primary than now. Asher has men combing every nook and cranny of this town. He was sure that one day, he would hit the jackpot and one of those searches would unlock the villains hiding place. He did not need to search for long however, it seemed that the villain was done hiding.It was early morning when it happened. Asher

“Please,” The prisoner begged, “You don’t have to do this.”Asher’s eyes burned. Why could he not do this? His mate was stolen from him, why did he not deserve to at least transfer his rage to this man who had helped make it happen.“I’ll talk, anything you want, I promise.” The whimpered, his voice pitchy and breathy.Asher paused in his steps. “Then start talking, and fast.”The man nodded furiously, his body visibly deflating with relief. “Where is Sebastian?” Asher asked coolly, the hammer hanging casually by his side.The fear was back in the man’s eyes. He looked up at Asher, his gaze with utter defeat, as he shook his head,“No?” Asher’s eyebrows twitched with impatience.“I really don’t know. I swear.” The man whimpered, voice so shaky it was barely comprehensible.“If you don’t know, then you’re not at all useful to me.” Asher growled lowly.The man fell to his knees. “We were hired randomly. They promised to take care of our families if we died for this, kill them if we didn

TRIGGER WARNING: Themes of torture mentioned below.)Brody found him first, in the thicket where he had chosen to bleed out his feelings. He felt like a broken man and no words needed saying as Brody looked over Asher. It was obvious that he’d not found Kihara, that he had failed in protecting his mate and now she was in the hands of a moon cursed wolf.“Come on Alpha, we’ll find her another day.” Brody said. Just not today, Asher thought. How was it acceptable that he came here with his mate and has to leave without her? How is it acceptable that she remains in that man’s lair, dead or alive for even a day?Brody helped Asher up and walked him back the way he’d come, until they broke out of the woods and unto the road. Asher’s leg was still bleeding but not as profusely as earlier and the pain of the wolf’s bane was also fading. Asher missed that pain, it was more merciful than the clenching and unclenching of his heart. This ache and this utter feeling of emptiness that was evading

Asher felt it rather than saw, from the distance of a still forming mate bond, his mate’s distress. He looked up, and that was when he saw the man that had introduced himself as Ajax with his mate. He’d knocked Kihara out and now she lay cold and unconscious in his arms. A growl tore through the air and earth. Asher’s eyes shivered with emotion, fear and anger. Ajax looked over his shoulders at him, and for once, that unsmiling, unfeeling face dissolved with a smile. He’d won.Without time to waste, and with Kihara in his arms, Ajax ran off the roads and into the mountains. His mate weighed nothing in his arms, and was hardly an inconvenience, or deterrent to his speed. Asher screamed with fury, the panic traveling up his throat, clogging his airways. The men charged at him and he swiped and stabbed at every single one of them, not holding back his strengths. He needed to get to Kihara; the only thought that rang loud in his head. He couldn’t let Ajax have her, knowing where he was t

Ajax’s men drew their weapons, axes and blades glinting in the air like the shine of cruel death. Leila turned to Kihara hastily. “Whatever you do, you’ll stay with me okay?” Kihara nodded, her hands tightening on her gun. I have this, she thought to herself, she ought to be fine. Asher from a few feet away glanced back at them quickly, he shared a look with Brody and Leila and they seemed to understand a they both nodded. To kihara, his eyes softened and seemed to tell, ‘be safe.’ Kihara nodded at him. She did not plan to let any of these men get close to her.And they were a lot of them. They were beyond outnumbered. The men were ordinary humans, and against a dozen well trained wolves were like an army of ants, but ants that they were, they crawled towards them from every angle, swarming in as if they could choke off the air. The men were way more than preoccupied in a few seconds, battling claws with blades and axes. The wailing sound of men broke through the peaceful mountainous

Sebastian listened quietly the messenger, a drink in his hand illuminating the colorful swirl of candlelight it captured. The messengers words echoed softly through his ear drums. After the man was done, Sebastian nodded. “You’re dismissed.”The man backed out of the room, his legs were about to cross the threshold when Sebastian called. “Don’t go back to the woods Jerry. I doubt that our boy will be anymore useful after today.”***Everything was set for their journey to Ever-moon. Transportation and envoy and the gifts Kihara had prepared for ever-moon waited downstairs while the Alpha couples exchanged swift words with each other.“You know why I worry Kihara, it is dangerous.” Asher was saying, the veins in his temples bulging as he emphasized on the word dangerous. Kihara was having none of it as she stood glaring at him with her hands crossed above her chest. ‘I don’t see how that is an issue.” They had had this conversation last night, and the night before, still, Asher was in

Kihara had never been to the pack dungeon. She was not even aware that a place like such existed, but as it turned out, the underground bunker was not the only thing underground. The dungeon was built a bit off ways from the pack, the only thing that lead to it was well like construction with stairs. The dungeon wasn’t well kept, unlike many areas of the pack, because it was hardly used. Asher told kihara the last time it had been opened, it was used by his father, and now him, to lock up Justin.Kihara climbed down the narrow stairs that led down to the dungeon with her heart feeling heavy and in her throat, Asher right behind her. At the bottom of the stairs, the dungeon opened up to9 a big musty space. The air was hot and drier around here. Directly in the middle of the room, two iron cages sat beside each other, and Justin sat in one, on a stool, his hands and knees bound. The cages looked ordinary to Kihara, there was no reason why they should be able to hold a werewolf, Kihara w

Kihara’s honeymoon lasted three nights. Three good nights of no worries, three nights of forgetting that there was even anything to be worried about. It ended too quickly for her liking, but they needed to get back to their duties, and Kihara needed to start hers. The bodies they found in the woods had been buried properly. In the days Kihara and Asher remained completely indoors, the only time they opened their doors was to receive food, and in their absence, Victor had taken charge. He’d put off alerting human authorities about the bodies in the woods and for good reason. No human police would not believe that the work had been done by a pack of werewolves. It’d be like putting handcuffs on their own wrists and walking to the police station to be locked behind bars, not that any police bar or handcuff could hold a werewolf. Apart from burying the bodies, there were many other issues. The pack had grown hesitant of stepping outside pack house boundaries. Members who had human jobs
