The Abused Luna

not a chapter 65i

Zion Xavier pov:

Just when I was about to return to the lack house after checking the southern border of the pack, I found something lurking at a distance, away from our pack’s border, clearing watching our pack patrolling guards.

I crossed the border and ran towards it, only to find that it was a rogue wolf lurking around. Thinking that this rogue wolf might be a part of the rogue camp that attacks our pack regularly, I thought of catching it.

Thus I chased after that rogue wolf for a few miles, but all of a sudden the rogue wolf disappeared since it got heads up while running. I looked around only to find that I was in the neutral non claimed area.

I ran for a few rounds in the forest area and tried to track down that rogue wolf’s scent but the tracks were useless after a few minutes as it got disappeared.

Not getting any leads, I made up my mind to return to the pack. But I made a note that I should sent some of our highly skilled and trained trackers here, I turned back to return to the Night howlers pack.

But before I could take a step, the wind blew around making a get a hint of a scent.

The next second, the wind blew strongly making me to clearly catch on to the scent in it.

I quickly followed the trail of the scent and reached a meadow next to the forest which was filled with flowering plants and grasses every where. There, I was able to clearly smell the scent of the rogue who ran away from me just now.

When I went further following the scent of the rogue, I saw a scene that made me angry.

That rogue wolf was about to attack a girl who was huddled in the ground in fear.

With a loud growl, I jump in front of the rogue and attacked the rogue wolf.

The rogue wolf was no match to me in strength and I killed him a few minutes.

When I turned back to look at the girl, she was having trouble breathing and clutched her chest in pain and was struggling to even sit straight.

When I moved closer to her, she became hyper seeing me coming towards her and within seconds she fainted. I thought that she must have fainted due to shock and fear, as she just escaped from the attack of that rogue wolf and was nearly came out of the clutches of death.

'She must have been terrified by looking at the fight and fainted in shock’, my inner wolf added.

Then I carefully carried her on my back and ran back to our pack territory.

I informed Clint that I was bring a girl, to our pack and asked his mate to be present to incase we need her help in assisting the girl.

Once I reached the pack house, the beta couple was already standing on the porch waiting for me.

When they spotted me, they quickly came to my side and carefully lifted the girl from my back.

I picked up the clothes that Clint had brought for me and went behind a tree to shift into my human form.

Once I had shifted, I came out of the tree and was greeted by Clint’s mischievous yet questioning look combined with his sly smile.

“Who is that beauty bro? “, Clint asked slyly and wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.

***this guy!!!... Can’t he be serious and act mature for a few minutes. Or at least can’t he pretend to be like one… .

“I am going to convey your exact words of ‘beauty', that you said about that girl to you dear mate Casey “, I rebuked back, making him frown in annoyance.

Then I went towards Casey who was struggling to trying to hold that girl singlehandedly leaving Clint to grumble to himself behind me.

“let me carry her Casey. Which room have to prepared for her? ”, I offered and asked Casey about the room arrangements she has made got the new girl.

After putting the girl on the bed and carefully making her lie down on it, we all stood around the bed, thinking about what to do next.

“Zion, who is she?. Where did you find?. Why did you bring her to our pack?”, Casey started her interrogation, by grilling me with questions.

“that’s what I wanted to get to know too? “, I said absent mindedly while rubbing my face in tiredness.

“What?? “, both Clint and Casey chorused at the same time.

“I don’t know who she was and where did she came from”, I said and put my palm on my forehead, as I was too tired after continuous work load.

“Then how did you meet her?. And more importantly why she unconscious???. What happened to her??”, Casey asked in confusion.

“ I went for a run as I was not able to sleep. Happened to meet her while chasing the rogue. She fainted due to the shock as the rogue wolf was about to attack her. I don’t want to leave her alone in the woods so I brought her to our pack”, I said in a single breath.

Hearing my reply, Casey got the gist of the whole situation and nodded her head knowingly.

She quickly went to the attached bathroom in the room and came back with a wet towel.

Casey then went and sat near the girl and wiped her face and arms using the wet towel.

“Are you sure you don’t want the doctor to see this girl?. I think taking her to the pack hospital seems like a good idea”, Casey said in the middle of her work.

“she just fainted Casey. After she woke up, in case she was hurt and wanted to see the doctor, then we can ask the pack doctor to take a look at her. Now, we shall just let her rest”, I said since it was really early in the morning. More like in the middle of the night. I didn’t want to disturb the pack doctor at this hour for a mere fainting.

After wiping the girl's face, Casey braided her loose hair and covered her with a blanket.

“wow… she looks so pretty. Look at her guys. I wish to see what the color of her eyes would be “, Casey mumbled the last line more to herself.

‘hazel… . Bright and shinning hazel colored eyes', I said in a very low voice to myself internally.

After that we all went to our rooms and decided to talk about the other things tomorrow morning.

Zion Xavier pov:

The next day morning:

I woke up early as usual and grabbed a quick breakfast in the kitchen and headed to my office as today I must allocate the money needed for next month’s expenses as well as all the urgent files that needed my response.

While I was in the middle of reading an important file, all of a sudden, the door to my office was pushed open with a loud bang and in came Zara looking all giddy and excited for some strange reason.

“Big brother!!.... “ Zara called out in her excited tone.

Behind her, others in my family too followed and occupied the seats kn the room.

Zander and Kevin came and sat on the single corner couches while Clint and Casey occupied the single beanie bag with Casey sitting on Clint’s lap.

“big brother… big brother!!! “, Zara jumped in her spot in front of my office desk.

“what is it kiddo?. And what is with you guys, invading my office first thing in the morning?? “, I question randomly with no one in particular.

“Well we heard something very interesting from our beta couple. So we came for further info”, Kevin said with a smirk on his face.

I raised an eyebrow questioningly at Clint and Casey but those two fellows only avoided my glance and looked elsewhere.

“big brother!!!. I heard you brought a beautiful girl to our pack house yesterday night. I wanted to go and see her but Casey said that the new girl was still taking rest and that I should not disturb her”, Zara said in a low voice as she with a low mood and pouted her face and sighed , as if the air inside balloon was released in a slow motion.

“who is she brother?. Is she beautiful looking like Clint was saying??!!! “, Zara asked with an excited tone the next second making me dumbfounded.

***ask our little sister about changing moods in a second.

“can you say again about what did that guy said about that new girl to you Zara?? “, Casey asked Zara.

But even though Casey directed the question to Zara, she glared at her mate, Clint who was busy looking at the designs on the wall, which of course was plain looking without any designs on them in real, making a futile attempt of trying to evade his mate’s killer glare.

“Oops… . Sorry Clint. You said not to mention that you said the new girl was beautiful in front of Casey right??. It slipped from my tongue by mistake “, Zara said with the most innocent looking face while clearly that little prankster was putting Clint in Casey’s killer spot.

“He… He… can we stop talking about unwanted things and talk about what we came here for???. Shall we, You brat?? “, Clint said, shifting the spot light from him.

“oh yeah… . I forgot about that. Tell me big brother, who is she?. Why did you bring her here?. Where did you find her??”, Zara shot question after question, unable to hide her curiosity.

“I don’t know who is she, kiddo”, I replied and closed the file I was reading as now I won’t be able to read it anymore.

****especially with all these interrogation team in front of me.

“then????? “, Zander opened his mouth for the first time since he entered my office room.

“Last night I chased a rogue wolf that was lurking around our pack borders. While chasing I missed it and the next moment, that rogue wolf was trying to attack that girl. So I saved her. Since she was unconscious, I brought her here. If she wanted to go somewhere after she wakes up, I will allow her to do so”, I said to them.

“And Kevin, send some trackers to the place where I killed the rogue. Maybe we can find some clues there”, I said to my Delta, who was enjoying this too much, as if he was told some bed time stories.

“yeah bro.. Consider it done “, he said.

But the next second, we heard something downstairs, like the sound of something fragile fell down and broke.

Hearing the sudden noise, we all rushed out side and went to the first floor from where the sound came from.

The moment I turned the corner, I stopped and stood still with everyone stopping behind me.

There stood the girl, I rescued from the rogue wolf yesterday night. She looked terrified and she was literally shaking like a leaf in fear.

She must have heard the noise of our footsteps as she looked in our direction, with a horror stricken face like a deer that caught in the headlights.

Seeing us, she looked down at the broken pieces of the glass vase on the ground and then at us, more particularly at me to be exact.

The next second, she started yo mumble something to herself and moved back and hit the wall while not taking her eyes off us.

We all stood there in confusion and shock as why she was behaving like that.

I took a step forward towards her but she screamed at the top of her voice in fear and slid down the wall in pure fear.

.......

Aurora pov:

I ran and ran till my legs lost each and every ounce of strength it had in them.

But I still breathed in heavily and ran as I know that the only thing that can protect me and keep me save from falling into the evil hands was running.

Gritting my teeth I ran while looking behind to check whether I was being chased or not.

But due to my misfortune, I tripped onto something and fell on the ground with a loud thud.

Look at my unlucky fate. Even before I could catch my breath after falling on the ground, I heard the sickening growling sound from behind me.

Fear gripped every inch of my soul and I was drenched in my own sweat.

With my heart in my throat, I slowly turned around only to have a face to face meeting with the sharp and ugly looking teeth that was snapping in front of me ready to put those sharp teeth into my soft flesh.

In an instant, I crawled back immediately and made a space between me and those deadly jaw filled with teeth, only to find that I was in face to face with a rogue wolf.

Even though the rogue wolf was slender and looks like it didn’t eat for days, it looked powerful enough to snap me into two with those jaws as I was very weak and small in comparison with its large built.

It looked to me that with just a swipe of it’s front leg, I would be gone.

Just when I was contemplating what to do next and how to escape from this deadly rogue, the rogue wolf lunged at me with a loud growl.

Second by second I could see the rogue wolf inching closer to me and aiming for my jugular vein for an instant kill.

Just when those sharp teeth came in front of my eyes in a zoom in fashion, I wide opened my eyes and sat up with a jolt.

I gripped whatever stuck to my hand in fear only to realize that it was nothing similar to the rough and humid forest floor or the soil in the outdoors. Instead something so soft and smooth like a cloth was felt in between my fingers.

My mind was so messy and hazy that I was not able distinguish my surrounding for a minute. The reason was all because of my tears that formed and fell from my eyes because of the incident a few seconds ago.

Thus when my vision was somewhat clear without any tears to blur it, in confusion, I looked around in anxiety and found that I was sitting on a wide bed with white bed spread on it. The bed was in the middle of a spacious room and I caught on to the fact that I was not in the middle of the meadow or in the forest.

Only then I realized that I was sleeping and it was just a nightmare of mine. Instead I was in a room and that I just woke up from my sleep.

I swiftly wiped the sweats that covered my forehead with my shirt sleeve and looked around cautiously.

My breathing was still uneven and my heart was beating at a fast pace, all thanks to that dreadful nightmare.

Making sure that I was the only one in the room, I silently came down from the bed and tried to fund where I was.

Just then my eyes caught the window in the room abs I quickly went towards it. Taking a deep breath, I slowly peeked outside the window only to see the surroundings of the vast green and dense forest that was totally unfamiliar to me in every way.

Even the scent of the fresh forest air seemed different like I was in a totally new place which I have not seen before and most importantly it clearly hinted me that I was in a pack's territory and not in some random place or on a neutral land.

The single fact that I was in a pack’s territory made me freak out more than I already was, as of now, currently I am rogue wolf without any pack’s protection over my head.

Usually pack wolves dislike… .. Well more like hate the rogue wolves to their bones and will kill them in an instant without any mercy.

I have heard more stories about the rogue wolves getting caught by the pack wolves. Those rogue eilves were either killed at the first sight or they were tortured in the prison cells.

Just thinking about either of the option made me go crazy in terroe as I didn’t run away from that hell of a pack to die unfairly in another pack’s hands.

My mind stopped working in fear and I forced myself to calm down a little.

Then seeing the room’s door, I made up my mind yo run away from this place this instant.

Then I can make a decision about what to do first. The only thought that came in front of my mind was to escape from this strange place and nothing else.

So following the gut feeling, I moved as quitely as possible and reached the door that seemed to be the one to go outside.

I opened the door very carefully, making sure not to make any loud noise in case I attract others attention.

I came outside the room and was in a corridor and at the end of it there were steps that went both up and down the house.

When I was busy in sneaking around, I stumbled on the showpiece stand in the corner while making a turn in haste, causing the expensive looking white flower vase to drop yo the ground.

The flower vase fell down and broke into several small pieces due to the sudden impact causing a loud noise, successfully grabbing the attention of others.

Immediately I thought of running away instead of sneaking around. But before I could choose which way to run, I heard several footsteps coming towards me from upstairs.

The next second, before I could run down the stairs, there came a guy with a powerful aura and stood in front of the path blocking my escape route.

Following him, there came a group of people around the age of the first guy, making me freak out.

They all stood there looking at me strangely and then looked at the broken pieces of the vase on the ground.

‘I am dead. They were going to punish me for breaking the vase’, I thought.

Because that’s what I experienced in my old pack.

So in fear of the upcoming beatings that was going to come my way, my legs moved back automatically and my hands came up to protect my head in instinct.

But when I hit the wall behind me, I knew that there was no other place I could escape to. My legs gave out in fear and huddled on the carpet floor, while covering my head.

“I didn’t do it on purpose… I didn’t..... It was an accident. Please… . Spare me”, those words came out of my mouth automatically.

Just this time, the words came out instinctively as if my inner gut feeling told me that these people would listen to my desperate pleas, unlike the members of my old pack, who were hell bent on finding a chance to torture me.

I saw through the gap in my fingers, that the guy who stood in the front of that small group of people coming closer to me. His muscular built was enormous and subconsciously I thought he was going to hit me, making my heart to beat million times per minute. The next second I saw black and white spots appearing in front of my eyes.
