Their forced luna

Chapter 85

Amanda

No!

I sat up from my sleep but the burning on my forehead of all things still persisted.

That wasn't the worst part.

His laughter echoed in my head even if it wasn't in words.

I couldn't escape him. No matter what happened now, I was bound to a beast.

"Luna," Raul snapped his fingers in front of my face.

I stared at him and with a cry, I launched myself into his arms. He easily caught me and hugged me,

petting me like one would a scared animal. "Raul," I sobbed his name. The panic ate at every part of

me, threatening to consume me whole.

It had been awhile since I'd had to bear this. His slimy mind nudged against mine, his smug satisfaction

felt like oil.

"What's wrong, Luna?"

I shook my head. Words weren't something I could do right now. Slowly, I lifted myself from the comfort

of his arms and looked up at him before sweeping my bangs away and letting him have a proper look.

His eyes flickered black. "A mating mark," he mused, he rubbed the pad of his thumb against the sigil

on my forehead. I had been branded like cattle. "I know it's had, but tell me everything."

I clenched my eyes shut and shook my head. There was no way I could get the words out. Not when I

wanted to throw up at just the thought of touching his emotions.

Concern and rage shot through my bonds and the door was yanked off its hinges. My mates crowded

through, almost getting stuck in the process, to get to me. Raul didn't hand me over, and continued to

stroke me while observing the rest. "She's safe, but there's an issue."

"Rigar," I forced the name through my lips wishing I could carve them away for uttering something so

foul. So much for the promise I'd made myself about never mentioning him again. At their questioning

look I dug deep inside myself. "It's the name of my previous Alpha," I spat the words.

I wasn't about to call him my previous mate. I'd rather die first than endure something like that.

Zale reached for me and Raul tensed but didn't stop him. Zale's fingers traced the same path that

Raul's had. "How is this possible? You haven't left this room."

"It's punishment," I ground out between my teeth. "Because Aren is dead. She wanted to take away my

mating bonds but Teniv wouldn't let her."

"Teniv?" Javier frowned.

"The Prime God," I reminded him. "When he stopped her, she changed her focus to making me suffer

this way." I whimpered. "I feel him," I whispered. "He's in my head."

"He can't hurt you." Zale reached for my back, rubbing it in comforting little circles. "We're going to stop

him, Amanda. When we're through you'll never have to worry about him again."

Sure, those words sounded comforting enough, but I still couldn't get past the sensations in the first

place. "What if Sabbi just helps him again? What if when you try to kill him, she kills you?" The thought NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

of anything happening to my mates made me want to retch. "She'll never stop."

Javier chuckled and everyone present glared at him. He didn't take the hint. "Is that all?"

"You're a heartless bastard," Bo complained.

Javier strode toward me and grabbed my chin. He lifted it so I was staring into his eyes. "We're killing

Rigar, and we won't stop there."

"The demons," I agreed. I wished there was a way to connect with Cee and get her on our side.

Nothing about her screamed bad person to me when we'd been captured together. I had to believe in

something.

Javier laughed. "Demons? Why do you think we're stopping there?" At my quizzical look he smirked.

"We're going after that Goddess of yours herself. No one touches our princess without our approval."

Was he serious? I glanced at Zale. Instead of telling Javier he was an idiot for even entertaining this

idea, he was nodding along like it all made sense. "Agreed."

"We can't fight a Goddess, we're not Gods."

"We're Primes," Bo gave me a small smile. "We're not going to let anything stand in our way. She's

going to regret every playing around with you like this."

"How do you guys even plan to fight a God?" Raul questioned. "I doubt it'll be as easy as you're

imagining."

I didn't have an answer. "Let's just focus on getting Clara out of there first. We can worry about the rest

once she's safe."

"About that," Raul rolled his shoulders. "We're going to have to wait."

What? My head jerked up and I glared at him. "We've already waited long enough. We have to save

her, now."

He waved me off with one hand. "She's being used as bait to draw you in. She should be safe for

awhile. We need to make sure that we have the firepower to get her out of there. That Prime of ours

needs a lot more training so he's completely in control of his abilities."

"But what about Clara? She'll be tortured!"

Bo glanced over at Zale, searching for an answer to appease me.

"We'll take care of her, Princess," Javier assured me. "Let Zale get his crash course in magic, and I'll go

take care of you. I've got an idea on how to make that fucker of yours suffer more than anything else."

I almost winced at his words. Whatever pain he'd put me through would be worth it. I would be brave

and endure it. At least it would make Rigar hurt and that's all I wanted right now. "I'm in."

Javier chuckled and there was a warm growl to it. "I was hoping you'd say that. Come on then my

sweet Luna. It's time for you to go spin the wheel and we'll see what toy I get to enjoy you with."

I almost fell out of the bed. Wait, this wasn't what I had expected.

Javier smirked at me again. "What? I told you we're going to make him suffer. That bastard is about to

feel you get satisfied over and over again until your body is ready to break. By the time Zale has his

ability mastered, we'll have to cart you around in a wheelchair and Rigar won't have any sanity left." He

licked his lips and gathered me in his arms. "Let's go get started."
