บททั้งหมดของ His Midnight Luna: บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

MIA“Hide!” I recovered from my shock first and hissed, shoving Xavier toward the window.I didn’t even see him move, but one second he was pressed against me and in the next he was gone. I turned from the window to the door, not sure where I should go first.“Mia, open the damn door before I break it.” The doorknob was still turning.I spun toward the door and tried to smooth down my hair with shaking hands. My lips felt swollen and my cheeks were warm. I probably looked exactly like what I was, a girl who’d just been thoroughly kissed.I pulled the door open and tried to look normal. “Hi, dad. I didn’t hear yo–”The words died in my throat when I caught sight of my father standing in the doorway. His expression was hard and unreadable. His eyes swept the room slowly like he was looking for something.“Mia.” His voice was flat. “Who were you talking to?”My heart hammered so hard I was sure he could hear it. “I—what?”“I heard voices.” His gaze sharpened on me. “Who’s in here with yo

MIAMy vision blurred and cleared. It did that twice before going back to normal. I blinked, wondering why everything looked different.I could see every single shard of glass on my bedroom floor. Even the tiny pieces. And there were so many sounds in my ears. A thumping. And a scent filled my nose, familiar but stronger than I have ever smelled it, even when I was standing close to him.Why could I smell my father like he was right beside me? I no longer wanted to hide from him. I opened my mouth to scream, to tell him I was inside but only a whimper made it out.My hands felt heavy, like they were held down my concrete or cemented to the floor. I looked down to confirm only for a terrified sound to work its way up my throat. My hands were twitching like my eyes did, horror filled me as I watched them switch from normal to something longer and disfigured, my nails were getting longer. So longer they looked like talons.No. This wasn’t possible. I was hallucinating. The pain was makin

XAVIER“Where’s Mia?” I demanded. “What happened? Where is she?”Falcon just stared at me with those unreadable dark eyes.“Falcon, I swear to God, if you don’t let me out right now—”“You know why you’re here, Xavier.”I frowned. “Why the fuck would i asking if I knew. I need to go and check on Mia. Something is wrong with her. I can feel it.”She tilted her head slightly, studying me. “You really don’t remember?”“Remember what?” I snapped. “Those bastards broke into Mia’s room, knocked me out, and I woke up here. That’s what I remember. Now let me out!”Something flickered across her face. Pity, maybe.“What happened after they sedated you?” she asked quietly.“I don’t know! I was unconscious!” I yanked on the chains again. The burning made me grit my teeth but I didn’t stop. “Something’s wrong with Mia. I can feel it. Let me out so I can get to her.”“Xavier—”“Now, Falcon!”“You lost control,” she said.I stopped pulling. “What?”“After they sedated you. You lost control of Kane.

MIAEverywhere was dark, no matter how hard I blinked or tried to squint, I didn't see anything. I couldn’t move. I couldn’t breathe. My body felt like it was sinking, being pulled down by hands I couldn't see. A force that is in the dark but unknown to me.The silent drip of water sounded from somewhere, the sound echoed and it was consistent, bouncing off walls I couldn’t see. I hated how it went straight to my head, I started to twitch from it.I strained, trying to hear anything else but that repetitive irritating sound. Whispers filled my ears and I instinctively leaned towards it. I was sure it was people speaking… or what sounded like speaking, I couldn’t understand most of it.A more quiet voice but somehow, it stood out against the rest and reached my ears. It made goosebumps rise all over my skin.Mia…It sounded familiar but I didn't know it. I opened my mouth to answer, to speak. To ask what the hell is going on. Before any word could slip, light burst around me and I felt

MIAI stumbled out of bed, my legs barely holding me up. My hand shot out, gripping the wall for support.I couldn’t breathe right. Each inhale felt like it was scraping my lungs.Coupled with the necklace that felt extra heavy against my chest and ice cold. I could barely drag myself up. I looked down at it and my stomach dropped when I saw the crack had grown bigger and it looked deeper and wider than before.“What’s happening to me?” I whispered, my voice shaking. The question echoed in my head but I had no answers. Nothing made sense anymore.I didn’t want to believe any of it was real. From the men with glowing eyes that took Xavier. My father holding me and telling me he failed me, then injecting me with something that made me convulse. And the woman in my dream. I felt like I knew her but I didn't know how.“They’re lying to you.”Her words replayed in my mind.Who was lying? About what?I pressed the heels of my hands against my eyes. Hard. Until I saw spots.Maybe I was losi
