The True Luna's Mark Chapter 21
Axel-I have been pacing the waiting room for almost two hours, waiting for the doctor to tell us something. My mother was a hysterical mess. When the doctor finally arrived, my mother and I rushed toward him.“How is he?” I asked.“Can I see him now?” My mother asked at the same time.“Okay, I know you two have been waiting anxiously, but you can calm down. He is out of the woods, and after running some tests, we discovered that he is simply exhausted. His body is worn out, and he just needs to rest. You guys can see him, but please don’t stay for long. He needs to get some sleep before we can release him.” The doctor motioned for us to proceed down the hall he came from, guiding us to my Father’s room.“Thank you so much.” My mother said to the doctor as we reached the room.“No problem.” The Doctor nodded his head before walking away.When we entered the room, my Father was already sitting up in bed. “I must have given you quite the scare.”My mother rushed to his bed, throwing his

Axel-When I woke up the following day, I felt much better. It was only five in the morning, so I knew Misty wouldn’t be up yet. I wanted to apologize to her for my behavior last night. As I lay in bed this morning, debating whether to get up or return to sleep, I considered the possibility that it was because of the stress I was under with my father in the hospital.As I climbed out of bed and showered, I thought about what I could do to make it up to her. I could explain what happened with my father and why I had to rush out on her during our date. Perhaps another date might help, except this time something more formal.With a plan in mind, I exited the shower and prepared for the day. Going through her clothes in my room, I found a beautiful black dress that I thought would look great on her. Laying it on the bed, I went to my desk to write a note for her.“I will be busy today, but I would like to take you on another date. Be ready by eight tonight. I will pick you up, and I would

Axel-“Tell me!” I leaned in until I was but an inch from her face.Misty flinched, but she didn’t open her mouth to speak. I was getting angrier by the second, and if she didn’t tell me soon, I couldn’t make any guarantees for her pathetic life. Every second I was wasting with her was another second that I could lose the woman I loved.“How long do you think she can hold out?” Dominic asked.“I give her another thirty seconds before her willpower is depleted.” Breck answered.“Want to make a bet?” Dominic asked, obviously amused.“Enough!” I yelled but kept my attention on Misty.Breck had guessed correctly because thirty seconds later, Misty gasped, and her eyes clouded over. I didn’t know if it was because of her mark or what it was, but I had to admit I was slightly impressed with how long she held back. When her eyes locked with mine and she started speaking, it sounded as if she was a robot.“Her name is Stormie. She is my twin sister. You were supposed to marry me, but I left,

Axel-Once the path was figured out, we rushed through the tunnel. It felt like we were getting lower in the Mine due to the downward slope. For a while, I wondered if I had been wrong and if we were going the wrong way.Ten minutes later, I saw a light in the distance and heard someone yelling. As we proceeded, the voice became louder until I could recognize it. It was my mother’s voice. She must have realized the main entrance had collapsed and found where the other exit was.A few yards from the wide exit, the ground began to shake again. Losing my balance, I stumbled but quickly caught myself against the wall, careful not to let Stormie get injured. Breck grabbed my shoulders and forced me to keep moving while helping me maneuver around the falling rocks.As we reached the exit, my mother grabbed us by our shirts, pulling us away. The tunnel completely collapsed just as we got out. We didn’t get out completely unscathed, as I was hit with a blast from behind and was thrown forward

Axel-Having not slept, I was already sitting up in bed, working on my laptop, when my parents returned. Breck and Dominic brought me some things from the house last night when I realized lying in bed wasn’t solving anything. I spent the night trying to find as much information as possible about Stormie, but everything was about Misty.“Good morning.” My mother greeted me as she brought over a container of food. “I thought you might be hungry.”“I am fine.” I accepted the container anyway, but set it aside for now.“You look like you haven’t slept.” My father’s tone was rigid, but when I looked at him, I could see the concern in his eyes.“I couldn’t. I decided to do a little investigation but couldn’t find anything about Stormie except for school records.”“I thought about it last night. I remembered Katrina and Corey had two daughters, but I didn’t know anything about the other daughter. Maybe I have seen Stormie, but I likely mistook her for Misty. I remember I asked about their ki

Misty-Waking with a splitting headache, I groaned as I rolled onto my side. What the hell happened last night? As I tried to recall what happened, my headache became worse. The last thing I remembered was returning home and preparing to take back my life. I found out my twin was pretending to be me while my parents waited for me to return.I hadn’t planned to return, but I realized that life as a rogue wasn’t something I envisioned for myself. I thought that the boy I met had been better than Axel, and he promised me the world. It didn’t take me long to figure out that I had simply been blinded by a teenage crush on a cute boy.He wasn’t as cute as Axel, but he offered me freedom. The one thing I had dreamed about was being free of my perfect sister. Well, technically, I was the perfect one. I had the looks, the friends, the clothes, and the boys, but my sister had something I didn’t. She was smart, and she was strong.When my parents told me my Mark was going to be yellow, I wanted

Stormie-I had to spend a full twenty-four hours at the hospital before they released me. I remembered what happened, at least to the point that I passed out. What I don’t remember is how I ended up with Axel again. The worst part was he called me Stormie.Since I woke up and he left, I haven’t seen him. I heard he returned after I went to sleep last night, but he was gone when I woke up. A guard was posted outside of my room, so I wondered if they were keeping an eye on me. No one has spoken to me besides the Doctor and Nurses.They didn’t say much except to tell me that I needed to stay in my room and that it was a miracle that I was alive and healed without much medical intervention. One Nurse had told me about Axel staying the night. Now that my identity wasn’t a secret, I figured Axel was simply keeping tabs on me but avoiding me.I tried not to say too much to anyone because I was scared of what was going to happen to me. I had deceived the Alpha family. It didn’t matter that I

Axel-“I don’t know where to start.” Stormie started picking at the corner of her thumbnail as she avoided my gaze and looked around the room.“You can start wherever you want, but if it helps, why don’t you start at the beginning?”She took a few deep breaths before looking me in the eye. “First, I suppose I should tell you that the mother I thought was my mother isn’t actually my mother. I only found out before coming here. I don’t know who my birth mother is, but I don’t know if I want to find out. I found out the reason Misty was always the favorite, which, in a way, makes me feel relieved.”“Why is that?”“Because it made it easier to cut ties with them. I no longer care that Misty and I are twins. I refuse to be nothing more than a spare part for her. I was ready and willing to die that night when they started beating me. The only reason I agreed to this setup about pretending to be Misty was because they promised they would send me away. All I ever wanted was to be free of them
