“Can I have some time to myself?”I asked.”Please.”I added when I saw each of their faces instantly set in disapproval , Maya’s smooth forehead had creased at my words , Lucas and James stiffened while the king and queen gave each other guarded looksAnd Austin , he seemed like the last thing on his mind right now was to leave me in a room by myself.
After what seemed like an eternity ,they eventually nodded their heads.”We’re right outside if you need anything from us.”
As soon as I was left alone , I opened the bedside window and quietly climbed out .I needed the fresh air more than I needed anything else right now .from the moment my feet touched the hard ground , my body shook and as if I had no control of my feet whatsoever they begun to move on their own accord.
I ran and ran and ran.The woods were consumed by darkness , not even the moonlight above helped but yet somehow I could still see as clearly as one would see in the day , my feet moving like it were one with the forest , like it knew every inch of it , every narrow path , every knotted root.The cold air lashed at my pale skin as I continued to race through the woods with no apparent destination in mind.While the darkness pressed against me from all directions something within me screamed to be set free , I felt something within me grow stronger the more I ran , almost like my body was spinning out of control and needed to be let loose.
I didn’t know how long I was running for but I finally stopped and leaned back against a giant tree.
My eyes remained closed as I tried to take in everything that happened today .I begun to breathe in the cool air more rapidly as the images of the day kept flashing before my eyes.The jet black wolf mercilessly killing The great grey wolf fighting for his life The terrified cries of the brown ones ..Austin standing naked before my eyes. I stood like that for a while until I heard someone clear their throat.
My eyes snapped open and right there in front of me stood the five gorgeous men from the fire Cross Pack.
I gasped in horror.
Holy crap.
not again.
Ermanno’s POV:
“f**k.”I whispered.
“Did you have to drug her?”Luthais asked , staring at our sister in my arms with a sad look on his face.
“He had no choice Luthais.”nolan cut in.”We all know she was about to scream ,if we allowed her to make any noise it could have easily alerted anyone from the Moon Pack , an encounter with them right now is the last thing we need.”
nolan was right , it’s not like I enjoyed drugging her any more than my brothers did but the fact remained that we were in Austin’s territory , the smallest noises could alert them.
“Why the f**k is there a bandage on her forehead ?”Thane demanded , his voice as sharp as a knife.
I followed his gaze and sure as hell there was a huge a*s bandage plastered there.
“We can’t discuss this here , we could get answers from her when she awakes .”
And f*****g kill anyone who hurt her.
“Where do we take her?”Marcus asked taking a look around us.
“We definitely can’t stay here.”nolan pointed out.
“And we can’t take her back to the council , not when dad doesn’t know what we’re up to.”
not that the council is a safe place for her either way , whether my father knew or not , the council is the last place I’d carry Lucy, not after what happened to my other sisters there.
“We can take her back to our old house , no one stays there anymore and that’s the last place Austin would be looking for her.”I suggested , it was the best option we had for now.
As my brothers all nodded in agreement I looked down at Lucy once more , it was time to tell her the truth.
.
LUCY’S POV:
I g*****d out loud , my eyes finding it hard to focus at the bright light .I blinked a couple of times before I could finally see clearly.
As my vision cleared I suddenly wished it hadn’t , as the five men from before all surrounded me , watching me closely.
I gasped and gripped the sheets around me in fear.
They had kidnapped me!
“Hi I’m Marcus-“
I let out a loud scream cutting him off.
“nice going jackass.”The only blond haired one of the group shouted.”You scared her.”
“What did I do?”
The tallest one shook his head at the two.”Lucy please calm down , we’re not going to hurt you.”
“That’s what murderers usually say.”I whispered.
They all chuckled at that.”Well we’re not murderers “
“Well actually-“The shortest of the group started but quickly shut his mouth as the others turned to glare at him.
