  CHAPTER 5

                                                                                          ~REGINA’S POV~

I sat on the cold concrete floor of the dungeon. Silver shackles decorated my hands and legs, making it difficult to think of anything other than the freedom of not wearing them.

The heat of my anger sat more profound in my bones than the cold from the broken window 8 feet above the ground. I turned my head and glared at the two bastards who put me here in the first place.

“We will release you when you're ready to tell the truth.”

“But that was the truth! Why do you find it so hard to believe me?!”

“Because you are the queen of War, and deception is your middle name.” 

I groaned in frustration and pulled my legs to my chin.

“I didn't lie. That was the truth; everything I said was the truth.”

“Sure thing, princess.”

Killian patted my head like a dog, and it took all the willpower in my body not to bite off the fingers on his hand. 

The metal door was banged shut, and it was only until the heavy silence echoed against the walls of my cell that I realized that the only thing I had to keep me company were the rats that hid behind the mystery of my shadow and the spiders that are too busy surviving to care about silly old me.

                                                                               ~~~

I trimmed the ends of my hair with the end of my nails. I hung my head low as I cleaned my nails when a gentle voice spoke in front of me.

“Hello.”

I looked up and stared into the mystery of long brown hair and her gray and green eyes. The different color of eyes looked like a mystery to me, but I wasn't going to tell this girl I was intrigued by her.

“My name is Sophia Crescent. Sister to the Alpha and beta of this pack, and I feel we will be amazing friends.”

I gave her the blankest expression I have ever given anyone. The look must have knocked the smile off her face because all she could do was ask.

“Did I say something wrong?”

I didn't say anything. I just looked at her with intensity until she spoke again.”

You don't like me.”

“Gee. How did you figure it out?” I spoke with sarcasm lacing words, and a scowl appeared on my face when a smile lined her lips.

“Well, then. It seems I have some work cut out for me.”

Anger brewed in my spirit due to the woman standing before me, and if she didn't leave in the next 20 minutes, I would find a way out of her myself.

She eventually left to do some critical shit when I got another unexpected visitor today.

Can't I just be left alone?

I lifted my head and stared at a man with long blonde hair and gray eyes. He held a tray in his hand, and he maintained a distant look within those orbs, and the realization of it hit me to the core. He’s blind and human.

“Hello.”

I didn't look at him. If there's one thing I know about blind people, it is that when they are ignored, they always make themselves scarce. 

But he wasn't like any blind person I know. 

“My name is Reginald.” 

I looked at him, expecting to hear more about himself, but when he didn't say anything else, a sigh left my lips, and I chose to ask.

“No last name?”

“I don't have a last name.”

“And why is that?”

“I don't know.” 

A blanket of silence fell over us, and just when it got too much for the blind boy to handle, he picked up the tray and walked closer to my cell before handing it to me. 

“I thought you might be hungry.”

I was starving, and he knew it, but I would be damned if I accepted food from him of the woman that came before him.

“I'm not hungry.”

“You don't have to lie to me. Anyone can see that you are…”

I pushed the tray out of his hands till everything fell to the floor in slow motion. The ceramic plates that served me shattered, and I stared at his face even when he couldn't see me.

“Listen, blind boy. Just because you have been treated like a liability doesn't mean you can do the same with others. So I advise you to…”

I stopped when an ominously low laughter spilled from his lips. The sound bounced off the walls, and I almost shivered from the sound it made.

“I'm laughing because of what you said. You should consider being a comedian.” 

He squatted to the floor and ran his fingers against the ground, searching for only goddess knows what. Once he found what he was looking for, he stood to his full height and held the item to the light. 

A piece of glass.

“Tell me, do you think anyone sees me as a liability?”

I didn't even get to reply to his question before he spoke again, and what he did next drained all the blood from my face. 

“How dare you sit there like a prisoner and tell me that I'm a liability because I was trying to provide care for someone who is hated by so many?”

He held the glass to his arm and made deep and long slashes against his flesh. My eyes widened like saucers just as I was about to ask him why he did this. The metal door burst open, and Killian, Callum, and the woman I talked to strolled in with worried looks. 

The woman was the first to react as she immediately rushed to Reginald and pulled him to her.

“Reggie, what happened?”

“I was trying to give her food when she…attacked me.”

“That's a lie. I didn't…”

Before finishing my speech, Killian grabbed my hair and pulled me to the silver bars. My face was burned with every second I was there, and I almost lost my marbles.

“I don't want to hear any more of your lies. For what you have done, you will rot in this cell till I say otherwise.”

He released me and walked to

the rest of his family, and as they all made their exit, Reginald turned to me and winked in my direction.

    CHAPTER 63 After giving the instructions not long enough Dylan came to my office looking tired but immediately it vanished seeing Regina on the couch walking towards her quickly and after checking her body besides the small bruise on her hands they were nothing much which relieved him after that he was towards me asking me what happened I showed him the food which might be one of the reasons we could not feel her wolf and told him how she came back carrying someone in her shoulders who is already in the dungeon and she did not say anything the moment she came back and just went to sleep which shows she was exhausted. But we have to wait for her to wake up before concluding ~~~DYLAN’S POV~~~ After I left Regina I went to clear my head and come back but I could not find her, even her scent stopped in the room showing she did not walk out of her room and there was no clue tho her bed was a little bit messy, so I believed she did not leave, no signs of her in the bathroom and lookin

  • The Luna Warrior    CHAPTER 62

    ~~~ KILLIAN'S POV ~~~ Everything just baffled me how did Reginald get there, and the most frustrating part is that his body was not found and Sophia threw a trauma that Regina must die because she was the one who caused all this and all this was weighing on me even tho we won the war there was a division I don't even know where to start from I've been searching for Reginald's body while holding a funeral for those who passed away. While I was heading to my office with Callum, we decided to visit Regina; opening the door, I saw her talking with Dylan. The next thing she was crying, which hurt a lot. We apologized to her and left trying to know our next step. Walking into the office, I looked at Callum. What do you think? I had an ominous feeling that this was just the beginning. There were many more to come. Callum looked at me. “I have the same feeling, and this war was what opened the door for more that is to come”. Ok, let's first rearrange the pack. Then we need to go

  • The Luna Warrior    CHAPTER 61

    ~~~ REGINA’S POV~~~***** This is time for me to change what I have done before, I know they will still hate me, especially Sophia but I need to know what am I missing, I guess I was so focused that I overlooked this part, now I need to do this on my own I can't rely on my mates, just myself. I turned to Dylan asking about Michael “he was found dead” “What”!! How about Vivian? “She disappeared, so Callum and Killian are thinking about taking over the park members and also expanding the park, while Sophia left the park after they buried some of the warriors because we could not find Reginald’s body, which is so strange. Maybe it is because he is a human”. Ok, thank you, Dylan, but I need some space to clear my head. Then I will come down and have some food to energize myself. Immediately after the door lock shut, I went to shower and stayed there for up to an hour so my muscles could relax because I've been training in my space and I feel stressed, but it is good to be stronger knowing

  • The Luna Warrior    CHAPTER 60

    ~~~REGINA’S POV~~~ ****** Since I woke up, I knew someone was instigating this war, and I started thinking about it again, but I can't seem to get what we were fighting for; from what I have heard, I don't see a reason for the fight. But I know Killian would not just stay without doing anything so the best thing to do is to fight back and as long as we take down the Alpha and his beta the warriors would run away with no one to protect them and then we can investigate further so while the people were being arranged I was with Dylan so we could protect the people because I felt like I don't have the mind to fight some of them because they were innocent while some were wicked but either way I decided to help with the injured one’s so I will go when they have started and watch from the side and see how the outcome would be but it seems like I overestimated myself. Immediately, I heard the war had begun. I was about to leave, but Dylan looked at me. “Are you sure you want to go” Yeah, I c

  • The Luna Warrior    CHAPTER 59

    ~~~KILLIAN’S POV~~~Callum met up with me and briefed me on the agreed plan. Although I initially thought the decision should have been mine as the Alpha of the pack, then I realized it was for the pack's well-being. With everything that had happened, swift action was necessary. I immediately informed the warriors to prepare. I appointed Callum to lead them to the border before Alpha Riley's warriors arrived in two hours. I would join them after getting things in check, and once there is an attack, they should call me if I am not there. I immediately mind-linked Callum to come, and to my surprise, he was already here behind me. I nodded at him in support and handed over the task, hoping our plan would be successful. I went to the pack house and it was only ten in the morning and the women and children were moving into the underground pack house. Before the warriors arrived,we should be prepared and everyone should be set.~~MICHEAL’S POV~~***** We are setting out this evening

  • The Luna Warrior    CHAPTER 58

    ~~ DYLAN’S POV ~~ As soon as the door was closed, I looked at Killian. Have you ever seen that older man in this town or heard of him? Since you are the Alpha, you should know your people and some people before them; I could see he was thinking, “I don't think I know him because I should have seen him if he was in our pack before the war only a few elders are alive and made it till now, so where is he from and why would they need a dragon’s blood.” From what I know, it is hard to get a dragon’s blood, and once a witch should get it. It means they could destroy every shapehifter or control them and why they use dragon's blood because dragons are the hardest to tame, so you need something of theirs to control them, and their blood is the most vital way to get to them and for them to know there is a dragon here means there is a spy because everyone else found out about it this evening at the banquet and I have not been moving around in the pack except at the training ground o
