The Twin Alphas Warrior Luna (RYN)

RYN

The moment I took the antidote and removed the Moonstone, something shifted within me. Three things actually.

First, the

the invisible tether I felt with Theon slowly faded away which saddened me.

Then, the wound in my stomach disappeared and I became fully healed. I sighed in relief, knowing I'm back to normal but then the third thing happened.

That familiar itch in my spine occurred again.

I scratched my back,

I really hope that wondering if I was having an allergic reaction. Then I froze.

is not about to make me have a humpback.

I tried to imagine that and then another image of me shifting into a rat and Chelsea throwing me in her mouth played in my mind.

A cold shiver ran through my body, making me shudder.

I wore my pendant, and came down from the table, feeling light headed and woozy. Spreading out my attention to steady myself, my attention I went to the window and I slowly walked to it. Looking out, I saw Theon's entourage moving far in the distance. I wondered. Does he feel the shift too? Will he become ultimately cold now that he isn't forced to feel? Rynpr

I turned around and found Sadie standing by the door. "You okay?"

I thought about her question for a moment. "I don't know."

She came into the room and approached me. When she got closer, I realized her eyes were bloodshot too. "I can't stop it." She whimpered, and when she looked up, her eyes were glassy.

"Stop what?"

"The hate against you." She said, "I made a video about you, got some friends to say something nice too on their profile but that Billie girl." She began to sob and I pulled her in for an embrace. "I am so sorry." caressed her hair. Ironically, I felt strangely at peace especially

"How are you so calm?" Sadie asked, sniffling.

me.

I wiped her tears with my hands and smiled sadly. "A wise person once told me to never let anyone's opinion define how I really see myself. I am going to try my best to hold on to that and that starts from logging out of all my accounts and deleting all the apps." "What about your phone number?"

"Changing that as well. No one else will have it other than you and maybe your cousins."Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Sadie nodded and then I grabbed my bag and slung it over my shoulder as we began to walk out of the office. Sadie went first and I turned around, looking at the memories I made here, especially the ones I had with Theon.

Does reminiscing mean I miss him?

F

! I wondered, then I shrugged before going out the door and closing it behind me. To my surprise, I found about half a dozen hefty men dressed in black waiting for me.

I looked at Sadie who blushed pink. "My Dad was concerned so he sent security to walk us to the car."

The men nodded to me in greeting and I smiled to them. Together, we all went downstairs.

Although the school was thinning out due to closing times, I noticed some students lingering around downstairs and I was surprised to see Bessie among them. It seemed they were waiting for me but when they saw the guards surrounding Sadie and I on all sides, they frowned. Going down the stairs, I raised my chin high and held my spine straight. I know what happened that night and no one can intimidate me into fear.

I have been there, done that, and I am not going back to the bullied Ryn anymore.

Bessie's disdainful eyes connected with mine and I couldn't help the sly smirk that curved my lips at her annoyance. If she thought she was going to make a comeback, she must have something else coming.

We exited the school building and headed straight for a big black Range Rover waiting for us. One of the guards opened the car door for me and I entered the back seat feeling like royalty.

I wish I were royalty. I wish my parents were rich.

How would

my

life have turned out?

Instead of following after me, Sadie chose to go round the car to the other side. Just then, I saw Bessie stop her and one of the guards stepped in but Sadie said it was okay. couldn't hear what they were saying but Bessie kept looking into the car where I was and argued with the gingerhead.

At some point, Bessie must have said something terrible, because the next thing I knew, Sadie slapped her and stormed out of her face.

Surprised, I

I watched her get into the car fuming, while Bessie held her face, stunned.

"What happened?" I asked Sadie, in concern.

Her face was blotched red in anger. "Nothing, let's just go." She grumbled, looking out the window and I wonder what could have been so terrible to get Sadie this upset.

Anger sparked i in my bones as the car drove out of the parking lot and I made sure to send a scathing glare at Bessie before we drove off.

I noticed Sadie was still looking out the window, so I held her hand, catching her attention and when she turned to me, I opened my arms for her. Like the cutie-pie that she was, she snuggled into my embrace and I held her close and caressed her hair softly. Hours later, Sadie and I were seated on the floor of my new bedroom, dressed in matching pjs, watching cartoons while binging on ice cream. Sadie's parents retired early and from the way they couldn't get their hands off each other, it was obvious, they were retiring to do something else. "What do you have in mind for tomorrow?" Sadie asked.

I gave a one handed shrug. "Graduate, come back home and get ready for the King Ball."

Sadie suddenly perked up. "That reminds me! You need a dress! And a makeover!"

"Wait what? What's wrong with my face?"

Sadie smiled. "Nothing darling. We are just going to make it more beautiful."

I looked away, my face turning red. "I don't think I have the funds for that. I haven't received my prize money yet."

"And who said anything about you paying?" Sadie beamed as I turned to her in shock.

I shook my head. "I can't make you spend on me."

"Actually, my dad dropped his card. He said and I quote, "Take Ryn shopping. You both need to buy whatever makes you happy."

Blinking in surprise, I thought about her words and began to get excited. Just then the doorbell rang downstairs and Sadie rose to her feet, mentioning it must be my things being delivered.

My heart began to hammer fast. That must be Theon. Should I go downstairs to see him? What if he doesn't feel that attraction? Am I ready for that revelation?

I paced in my room for about a minute, holding my hair back from my face with one hand and when I heard Sadie open the door downstairs, my wolf couldn't take it anymore. So I rushed downstairs to see Theon.

To my dismay, it was some random guard whom I recognized as security at the Windermere mansion.

Sadie collected my small luggage from him and waved goodbye and then she closed the door. She climbed up the stairs, smiling at me and I had to force one for her. After she passed by me going upstairs with my luggage, I let my smile fall.

If Theon liked me, he would have shown up by himself.

Sending a guard sends a clear message.

Theon doesn't feel the same way about me anymore.
