Black Luna

Chapter 26 Secrets

He sat down and stared at me.

I chopped finish the carrots and added them into the soup. It started to bubble so I took it out and place them in a bowl and gave it to mate.

He took a sip.

"Nice."

"You think so?"

"Of course. The dishes you make are divine."

"I was living by myself for a few months and I've been cooking for my-"

Wait. Why did I stutter.

"Your?"

I looked away.

"Previous pack." I whispered.

"The Terror pack?"

I nodded.

He didn't say anything after so I excused myself out first.

"Annabel!!!"

I turned my head. Before I knew it I was suffocating.

"Di-ana. Y-you're-"

"Dylan proposed!!"

"W-what?! Y-you guys h-haven't e-even mated."

She let go while I caught my breath.

"Yeah, I know.. But who cares! He proposed!!"

"Hehe. I'm happy for you Diana."

She smiled.

I wished my life was this carefree and simple.

Well, it isn't.

I know. I just wished.

Hey, we were born for a different reason than other normal wolves. It's just natural. We were born special.

But is it that bad to wish we weren't?

I doubt so.

Well, now what? I'm bored...

Dylan!

I ran to Dylan's room.

"Dylan!" I burst open the door.

He startled.

"Jesus. What do you want Annabel?"

"Well, I just...wanted to confirm something..."

"Yes?"

"Well, um...you see...I- uh.."

"Come on Anna. You can tell me."

"Did you...were you...where were you last night?"

His eyes widened a little and his small smile turned to neutral look.

"Why?"

"I...just thought I had...."

"I was in my room playing video games."

"O-oh. Y-yeah. I know that."

"Anything else?"

"You really proposed to Diana?"

"Of course. She's the love of my life."

"But you haven't mated yet."

"Haha. Who needs that right now?"

That was a weird answer.

"O-ok. Sure. Anything you want."

He gave me a reassuring smile and so I left. He's been acting strange since coming here. I hope everything's alright with him.

Now, go to mate? Or go to bed.

Sigh...

I should go to bed and have some sleep.

*knock knock*

So! I had to choose from mate or bed.

I'm standing at a door right now. So guess what I chose in the end.

"Yes?"

"I-it's me. Can I come in?"

"Yeah sure." There was a big sigh on his words.

"Listen mate." I said when the door was closed behind me.

"I'm sorry I didn't have the guts to tell you everything."

"It's fine."

My body felt sadness and hurt and pain. It wasn't my feelings, but was mate.

He's hurt.

I know that Kyra.

So? Tell him everything!

It's painful to recall everything.

Oh come on. That's in the past already. Plus you have killed so many people and you improved so much, unlike the first day we arrived in the terror pack.

The first day...

Oh shit. No no. Annabel, that's not what I-

"When I was 13 or 14, I was "kidnapped" by the Terror pack. They pulled me to a black car and put me into the car boot. When the boot was shut, I heard gunshots. I was stunned. When we reached the pack, they blindfolded me and brought me to the abandoned basement where there's only one room. My room. Alpha entered and told me to remove my clothes. My mother told me to never strip in front of strangers so I kept still. I shouted back and in the end he *gulp*- he..raped me." I let it all out.

Mate didn't say anything. He looked like he's at a lost for words.

"But I'm sorry I didn't tell you. It was just a little hard to relive the past. I'm sorry."

Again, no reply.

I waited. And waited. And waited.

Till I decided to leave.

But he suddenly grabbed my hand, and he gripped it tight.

"What else are you not telling me."

He had fury in his eyes.

Someone had awoken the king. And I think it was me.
