MasukMishaEventually I did drift off for a bit, I guess, because the next thing I knew I was opening my eyes and looking around a darkened lab. I was alone.I tilted my head back against the pillow and stared out the windows at the starburst in the sky. The electric lights of the compound grounds illuminated the tops of pine trees and in the distance I could just make out the white fang tip of an unknown mountain. We was a long, long way from home now. Shifting uncomfortably against the bonds, I wondered at the effects of the serum she had given me. Had it really been a mixture of my parents’ blood, derived to somehow make me super powerful? Why would that creepy doctor even want that?Or had she been lying to me? It could’ve been anything that she had given me. It could’ve been saline. I didn’t get a good look at the tube of contents itself, I was so distracted by the giant needle in her hand, but I don’t recall seeing any red. Whatever it was had been a clear liquid, I thought. So w
Misha“Please, wait! Will that hurt my babies?!” “No, no. If anything, it should make them stronger, too.”My eyes filled with my tears. “So my parents…are they still alive?!” Dr. Frieda paused again, a small frown creasing between her overly plucked eyebrows. She clearly wasn’t happy to keep being interrupted. “Abigail and Benjamin Kole-Aspen are still alive, yes.”Kole was my surname. Tears spilled out to splash down my cheeks. “Oh my God…I can’t believe it.” I breathed. “Can I see them?! How are they?!”“They’re just fine, my dear! Doing the good work! Your mother is a brilliant scientist, you know. She has helped me break ground and knock down a few glass ceilings, as well, you should know. Your father is a genius, too, mind you, but, well, he’s been more STUBBORN than her, let’s say.”“Please, oh please, can I see them?!” “I don’t think that’s a very good idea.” An all too familiar voice said, from the other side of the room, and I resisted letting out a groan. Red sauntered
SPRUCE Dr. Frieda Wolfstrom was having a good day.She had waited for this day for a very long time. Everything leading up to Red successfully impregnating the Luna she had meticulously planned out.(It was only after the lapse in Lar’s judgment that everything started to fall apart.) (*Cut or Key?)Dr. Frieda’s heels clicked nervously across the elegant glass floor of her private laboratory.Excitedly, she clasped her thin hands together. A pale, critical gaze scanned over Misha’s naked body, strapped down as it was to a hospital bed, which was elevated so that Misha’s face was closer to hers.Sweeping a strand of flaxen hair behind her ear, Dr. Frieda leaned down over her new pet. She couldn’t help that she found herself admiring the young woman’s bare breasts, the thick thighs, or the lush patch of black hair between them. The Luna was undeniably a gorgeous woman, with her short black hair just brushing the sharp edges of that perfect jawline. Her eyebrows perfect sweeping arcs
Misha I woke up feeling like dog shit.It was a quiet morning, nobody spoke. Murdoch already had the fire going when I woke up, bless him, and had coffee ready for us all. I ate my steak while everyone else ate leftover venison stew or quick porridge. If I never saw venison stew again it would be too soon!Despite the unknown dangers waiting for us at this mysterious “SPRUCE” place, I couldn’t wait for this journey to be over. What I wouldn’t do for just a hot shower?!After breakfast, Lars gave the order for everyone to pack up their gear and get ready to move out. No one was making eye contact.“Your feet are all healed!” Lars commented, watching me change my socks for a fresh pair of his. “That’s amazing! You healed so fast…But…you said that we should continue acting just as we were; so shall I continue to carry you, my lady?” I smiled up at his hopeful expression. He clearly wanted the excuse to keep carrying me. “Yes, I should say so.” I agreed, putting up my arms for him.G
MishaI lay quietly in Lar’s arms, unable to sleep a wink that night, and not just because Lars was snoring loudly in my ear. My mind was busy and agitated. No amount of attempting grandmother’s meditation techniques was helping at the moment. Grandma had always sworn by her meditation techniques, and all my life, I had put my utter and complete trust in this woman.And look where that had led me…Dare I continue to put her faith in a woman who might be dead?I swallowed my doubts, putting my hand over my full belly. Deep inside me, I could feel my two babies. Two little sparks in the darkness, just starting to shine. ‘We’ll be okay, little wolflings.’ I soothed them in my mind, hoping that they could hear me, but really just trying to comfort myself. ‘You shall be a Queen and a King, my little precious darlings. You are going to rule the world together, I’m going to make sure of it, my loves.’ ‘You’re insane.’ Red told me, butting in rather rudely. Mentally, I gave him the midd
Red“So what is the plan now, Queen?” Lars asked respectfully, rising from up off of bender knee.Misha was staring off at the sky with an unfixed gaze. “We move forward, as if nothing has changed. We go to the headquarters of SPRUCE, with me and Braiden as your “prisoners”. When they let us in, we turn on them, killing all the staff and releasing any prisoners they have kept there. Beyond that, there is no plan.”Lars bowed his head. “It shall be as you wish, Mistress. Tomorrow, we shall arrive at HQ.”“Tomorrow?” She murmured. “So soon. Thank the Goddess Freya that I took action when I did…” she trailed off and then her gaze lowered and focused on Red, and her gaze was terrible. She seemed…different, somehow, tho he couldn’t really put his finger on it. Her eyes were bright. Her pale skin was glowing like the surface of the moon. She was holding herself differently. More like a queen, he supposed. With each passing moment that he knew her, she gained in power, right before his ver
