MasukMy ears went deaf, my skin numb, and my heartbeat stopped for a minute.“My Luna?” the doctor called out. I could see him, but my vision was blurred. He tapped my hands twice, but it didn't make my vision any clearer.A thud, then darkness.I struggled to open my eyes, with daylight touching them. Was it morning already? I thought it was night.“Rage, pardon my audacity, but it was very reckless to go to war with her, especially with her condition,” I could still hear his old, crackly voice—the doctor's.“Which condition? She was perfectly fine… what you're treating is what's called an injury,” Rage was here. He spoke… and as soon as I heard his voice, my eyes fought to open.How was he?Did he have an injury?Where did he sleep?Where's Clara… everyone?My hands moved, and he tapped my head with his index finger. As a warning or reassurance, I couldn't tell.“Easy there, you were asleep for long,” he spoke.I tried to speak, but my mouth was too heavy.“Easy, my Luna. You're supposed
I got my victory, something I've wanted for years, but the emptiness I felt confused me—a little dilemma, a little happy. Lucious was still out there, and I had to do everything to get him. Without him, my victory wasn't complete.The bike roared down the road in a rampage. One bike at a time passed, bloody yet happy, mourning but victorious. The bikers raced while howling at the moon, a sign of victory. Rage's bike was the last, which was unusual for him. I slowed down. Clara noticed and stayed close to me, whether to show loyalty or because she didn't trust me. I couldn't put my hands on it. All I knew was that she was close enough within my range.“With a speed like that, Lucious will have a perfect strike,” I spoke gently, but he looked down, not yet responding. Clara looked at me with pity. Her face showed that she knew what I was feeling, but she raced faster, catching up with the rest.“Catch up,” he roared. His claws came out. He was angry. I could tell he was thirsty for bloo
The night was dead silent. The moon could be heard whispering a few words of encouragement. The thunder thudded and the raindrops fell on each one of us — only ten chosen, but all joined the war.With every raindrop that hit the leaf, my fear withered like sand dissolved. Rage turned his bike light on, finally giving us a view of the rough road we were all about to ride on.The rest followed, and my hands shook as I was the last. Rage lifted his two fingers and pointed forward, and the bike noises were endless — all of them in high speed, some carrying two, some only one, but Rage’s engine roared.It was war!My bike roared as Rage followed me behind.“You're too slow, Kade would catch up to you by now,” he shouted mockingly as he drove past, but his eyes still stuck on my movements.“Oh, I'll show you fast,” I whispered underneath my breath and geared up to the last meter, bypassing all of them and making me the leader — but not
“I haven't heard from Damian since you came back!” the short man yelled on top of the chamber.“Uh-huh,” I said while looking at the women’s train, sharpening my blade and trying all means to avoid Rage’s stare. The only thing I expected was him to be thrown from up the tower.“He went to visit your hometown, care to join him?” Rage yelled back, but I couldn't feel the pain of betrayal in his voice. He wasn't going to rest unless he had his revenge, neither was I, but his desire fueled mine.“We go for the bounty hunters tonight, so everyone gets ready,” he commanded, going back to the house after staring at the tree for so long.“Why so soon?” I asked, stepping forward to him.“They know our location. It's either we turn the hunters, or they take over—and I am one biker hunter that can't be a prey,” he said, his fangs coming out, clearly ready for blood. His pulse sensed every heartbeat, and he could pull each one out of their body.
“Can I get some food at least?” I spoke, and he scoffed.“You're the one bringing us food today, don't you know?” he spoke, and I gasped.“You'll hunt for us today,” he spoke, and my fists closed in. I could feel the fear crippling on me. He smirked, knowing fully well I couldn't, plus it was a danger for me to leave the shelter.“I don't think I can. Why can't Clara handle that?” I spoke, looking behind at Clara, who smiled like she enjoyed the toucher.“Don't worry, I'll go,” Rosa spoke behind me.“Why don't Luna here go and prove to us what she can do?” Clara said. I could feel the mock on her face and oh! It turned my stomach like a spike.“Why don't you, Miss Goody Goody, show us what you've got?” I said, going to her bike, eyeball to eyeball, and I didn't flinch. I could tell my gaze burned her down.“It's an order!” I let out, and she unwillingly rode off. I smiled as I looked at the proud look of Rage.“
“Kade has a bounty on me,” I whispered, finally sitting down to relax. “You don't say, what's the price?” he asked, pouring a glass of whiskey for himself. “I dare you to look at my face and tell me that you didn't know anything about that,” I said softly, my eyes closing in his never-blinking eyes. “What if I know? What am I supposed to do about that?” he spoke arrogantly while sipping his whiskey. “Help me,” I whispered, my voice being swallowed by my small echo. He leaned forward, holding his glass while looking straight into my eyes and spoke only two words. “No!” he spoke so rigidly, direct to the point with emphasis. He got up, leaving me chasing him just like I did the first time, down the hallway. “Please, Kade would kill me if I don't have help,” I yelled. “Good,” he replied over his shoulders. “Good as in you'll help me, or good because I'm going to die?” I said, finally standing after the chase. He stood at his bedroom door so coldly and locked up his room
