Chosen By The Moon

His words twisted in my gut like a knife. The air between us felt electric, charged with tension, my pulse pounding in my ears. I couldn’t make sense of what Warren was implying. Illana’s death had been a tragedy, it had nothing to do with Josh! He found her just after the hunters did, the anger inside me grew hotter, burning through my confusion and replaced it with pure hatred.

"Alright, I can see that’s a distasteful subject…” He held his hands up before smirking wickedly. “Let's just talk about Dylan instead then, and this pathetic little attempt at playing rebellion! she's manipulated hundreds of people into dying for a futile, and ridiculous cause..." I felt sick to my stomach as I looked at the sadistic bastard in front of me, I swallowed thickly tasting the lingering red metallic substance as I did so and frowned at the pain in my wrists. There was genuinely nothing I could do to stop myself from hearing Warrens words. "I knew before even Josh did, that human had tempted you, she must be amazing in bed to have turned you away from the title of royal Beta."

It was never that simple. I felt connected to Dylan as soon as my eyes met her in the schools hall.“You speek of Temptation?" I repeated, my voice steady. "That couldn't be further from the truth. At first, it was admiration. I admired her strength. She is human. Not only that but she’s a human who for years had been forced into compliance, and yet she stood up to us, she stood up to Josh in ways none of us ever did. She resisted him. She never backed down, even when he all but broke her. Being able to witness that... well, it made me realize that If someone like that, can stand up and resist that kind of tyranny, then why can't we?"

"Dylans discipline has been far too lenient…” He murmured. “She is far too clever and far too calculated to have been left to her own devices..." Lenient my ass. They fucking branded her for goddess sake. I will admit that she is lucky not to have been killed, however I wouldn’t ever say she experienced any leniency. "But... Once Her Grace has been crushed, she will fall into place, right by the kings side, and she will stand silently behind him as he rules over everyone...exactly the way the goddess Luna had intended. She might even be able to provide an heir or two. Wouldn't that be

something." He began chuckling sarcastically, as if the notion of Dylan being forced to conceive was the funniest thing in the world. "Just Imagine how she would feel knowing she birthed the next ruler."

"She’d kill herself before she'd let Josh do anything to her.” I knew her by now, I knew for a fact, she truly would embrace death before being dragged back to the palace to be with Josh forever. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

He just chuckled. Exiting the Cell and locking the door once again behind himself. He gripped the bars, much like an ape attempting to escape and smirked, looking me directly in the eyes.

“Not if King Josh causes her physical paralysis, first.”
