The Luna's Hidden Destiny

(Mila)

I sunk deeper into the bath..my eyes tired from the lack of sleep but my mind was unable to stop running long enough to grant me silence. Pain..all I felt was pain. I knew deep down that it wasn’t all mine and that’s what killed me the most. It started last night in my right eye, with a sharp pain and a migraine immediately right after. The dull throb becoming a part of my everyday routine as I’m struggling with staying put and being patient.

Today we are interrogating Chloe and I can honestly say I don’t know if I will be able to leave that room without her b***d on my hands.

I have never been a violent person..never thought of killing as the only option..but now, I wanted every damn person involved in this dead.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Calypso is doing even worse than me..I had to shut her away for a little because her panic and anxiety were causing me to become hysterical.

One day…it’s been one damn day without him and I am already losing my mind. Every hour that passes my fuse grows shorter and shorter and I’m about to do something reckless. Something I know I promised Rowan to never do..that’s why I haven’t left yet..that’s why I am still here and waiting to find out more answers rather than acting irrationally.

“Please baby, just hold on a little longer. I promise I will find you.” I whispered into the still silence surrounding me, praying that it would somehow find its way to Rowan by some miracle.

Sinking lower into the bath, I brought my knees up to my chest and wrapped my arms around them, hugging myself.

I let out a shuddering breath, that pit in my stomach feeling eternal and unending as I closed my eyes, trying to see Rowan in my mind..trying to remember every little thing that I loved so much. His blue eyes and his shaggy hair, the small beauty mark he has right above his eyebrow. The way he laughs or how his breath felt against my skin. His deep cherry scent and how his hugs felt when he was wrapped around me.

Gone, it’s all gone and I am afraid I will never see him again. Then this is the part when the anger comes in violent waves. Why is this happening again..why did I let this happen again. I was supposed to be stronger…I was supposed to be able to protect him.

I reached my hand up before slamming it down hard against the water, watching as it sloshed out of the tub.

What is wrong with me? There are things going on that I can’t even explain..how did I heal Genevieve..what was that white light that came out of me and how did I know what to even do?

I looked down at my palm, feeling more confused than ever.

*knock knock*

I heard a light tap against the door and already knew it was Sadie.

“Come in.” I whispered hoarsely, trying to clear my throat as I viciously swiped away my tears, feeling tired of crying already.

‘You okay?’

Sadie linked, walking in slowly as her eyes studied me intently.

I just shrugged, unsure of how to even answer..I don’t know if I will ever be okay again..not unless Rowan is by my side.

‘We are getting the interrogation room ready. We contacted the Elders and they ok’d whatever outcome we choose for Chloe.’

Sadie informed me before sitting next to the tub and reached her hand out to take mine. I slipped my wet palm into her grasp while nodding my head.

‘Thank you..for doing all of that.’

I felt like I have been essentially brain-dead these past two days..I just don’t know what to do or where to even start. The grief is almost too crushing that I know I can’t keep going on like this. Not if I want to find Rowan and save him…I have to get over this part and be ready to fight back.

‘Mila, it will be okay, you still feel the bond and once we get what we need from Chloe we can figure out why he took him and where he is. We will find him soon..I know we will.’

Sadie spoke kindly, her words making those knots loosen slightly as I let out a deep breath.

‘How’s Tristan doing?’

I suddenly felt selfish, realizing Sadie’s mate was suffering too. I know Tristan feels guilty about what happened like he should have been able to stop Ozzy, but there are only two people to blame for all of this..Chloe and Ozzy. Those are the two people I am holding a grudge against for this because they are the ones who ripped my life apart and tore it to pieces and I vow to return the favor.

‘He is becoming closed off..but I feel like getting some answers from Chloe will help out.”

Sadie glanced up at me, her aqua eyes shimmering as a fierce determination flashed through them.

‘I personally can’t wait to see what you do to that bitch.’

She grumbled into the link, making me smile for the first time in a while. The idea of torturing Chloe somehow made my mood improve slightly. I stood up, grabbed my towel, and wrapped it around myself.

‘Mila, We are in this together no matter what. Whatever you choose to do I will support you.. But please, promise you won’t decide anything without telling me first. Promise you will keep me by your side.’

Sadie randomly added, making me wonder if she thought I would run. I vowed to keep my promise with Rowan so I decided that was out of the question. We would do this together, as one.

“I promise Sadie.”

I whispered, pulling her into a hug as I gripped my towel around me with one hand.

“Now let’s go pay Chloe a little visit.” I gritted through my teeth..I could feel myself changing..nice and forgiving Mila was officially long gone, and sadly the new Mila has an unquenchable thirst for revenge..one that won’t be satisfied until Rowan is safely by my side once more.

Sadie smiled widely, her excitement rising by the minute as I turned to walk into my closet and change.

The scent of my mate slammed into me, stopping me in my tracks for a few minutes as I inhaled deeply. Needing a part of him to get me through this..needing to feel his essence in my lungs as I buried my face in his shirts, taking it all in as I steadied my mind.

After a few more minutes of surrounding myself with Rowan’s scent, I quickly slipped on some undies and a bra before grabbing a black long-sleeve shirt and black jeans. After slipping on my black sneakers I tied my hair up and prepared myself to step out of the room.

I hadn’t left since I woke up yesterday..afraid to leave the comfort of Rowan and I’s sanctuary…Worried that if I return to the real world, all of this would hit me even harder as I still was Luna of Black Stone and had a duty to my people. Luckily Vincent and Laura were here to back me up, but I promised to take care of this pack and our people and I know I can’t neglect them much longer.

‘Ready?’

Sadie interrupted, pulling me out of my thoughts as I stepped out of the closet and headed toward the front of the apartment.

‘Yes, I’m ready to get my mate back.’

My voice was firm and fierce..knowing Chloe could hold the answer to everything. Who would have thought that Rowan’s life would be in Chloe’s hands? Goddess, I hate her so damn much..

We walked out the door towards the elevator, my eyes wandering to John and Dan as they stood tall while guarding the outside of our floor.

I could feel their concern from here as they stepped closer to me, their eyes scanning my appearance as if they were checking for some type of wound or damage I sustained. Sadly all of my injuries were inside of me, invisible to the eye..something only I could feel..something only Rowan could heal.

“Luna, we want you to know that we are always here for you and will stand by your side to protect you no matter the cost.” Dan suddenly spoke up, catching me off guard as my gaze softened before meeting his own.

“Thank you..I really appreciate you both greatly.” I whispered, placing my hand on Dan’s arm as I squeezed gently, trying to assure him I was okay. John just looked sad..I know he and Rowan were closer and they actually have known each other for years.

“I will find my Rowan..after today we will know where he is and we will bring our Alpha home no matter what…that I promise.” I declared, my voice unwavering and full of pure determination as I stepped towards the elevator..feeling more ready than ever to put this b***h in her place and finally show Chloe Humphreys what the Luna of Black Stone is capable of.
