The Hidden Luna

Chapter 11 Star

Stars POV

Lauren was petrified. She had a massive panic attack, and I had no choice but to take over. I used all my strength to push her to the back of her own mind and put a block up. I couldn’t shift just yet, but I could protect her this way. She couldn’t see or hear anything around her. I stood up and walked over to her drawers and stood looking at the pad. Her pad.

I opened the first page while it was on top of the draws. Her first picture was there but partially covered with an envelope. I grabbed the envelope and walked over to the bed. I took a deep breath as I sat down preparing myself to open the envelope and see what was inside.

I could feel Lauren in the back of her mind sobbing and shaking. I needed to get this done now. Good or bad I could help her either way.

I tore it open at the top and pulled out a letter. I think I expected something terrible. I was so wrong.

“Dear Lauren.

Please do not be afraid of this letter, I am sorry if it has caused you any upset or worry at all, that is not my intention. I know you have had a rough life and I don’t even know all of it. I hope that you can eventually trust me and want to talk to me. You will know how to find me when the time is right for you.

I will not tell anyone about you or even mention you to anyone unless you chose to ask me to.

I am sorry if I have caused you any upset doing things this way.

Signed J.Holden.

P.s you are no longer alone. I can and will protect you at all costs.”

We had been discovered but not completely. We had an alliance if we wanted it. I folded the letter up and placed it back in the envelope. I them placed it in the hidden compartment of my underwear draw. This is where we kept things that needed to stay hidden. I laid down on the bed and started to try and reach Lauren.

Lauren POV

Everything was dark. I couldn’t see anything and I couldn’t hear anything. I was at peace. I was alone though. I couldn’t hear star. I could feel her but that was it.

“Lauren. Lauren, can you hear me?” the sounds seemed muffled as if my ears were not working right.

“Star, where am I. I can’t see anything.” I replied. I really hope it was star.

“Yes it’s me. I had to put a block up for you. You were panicking and I couldn’t just watch you suffer anymore.”

“Thank you Star. I was so scared. I couldn’t cope.” I said to her.

“It’s not actually bad. It’s something good. Are you ready to come back to me?” She asked me.

“Yes, I think I am. I am sorry!” I told her. All of a sudden, I was feeling like I was back and had control.

I tried to open my eyes and it worked. I could see I was on my bed. Laid down. “How long has it been?” I asked her.

Only few hours. I have been trying to reach you for a bit now. I was able to use your body while you were gone. I read a letter while you were gone and Its not bad news.”

“A letter? Where from?” I turned to my draws and sat up.”

I looked around me but couldn’t see it. That’s when Star told me where she had put it. I walked up to my draw and pulled the letter out. I sat back down on my bed and taking a deep breathing opened it back up and I read it myself. Star was right. This may be good news. Apparently I have a friend. I looked at the signature again. J.Holden.

Holden was the surname of the Alpha and Luna. And their son Jackson.

My mind filled with thousands of questions.

“I would say go look for him and ask him, but unfortunately we need to go to work.” Star said, sounding disheartened. I looked over at the time. It was almost 5 am and I really needed to change and shower.

“He said I will know how to find him when I am ready.”

I walked back over to my draws, placed the letter in in front page and put them both away. I really needed a shower and to get ready for work. I picked out my clothes and headed out to the shower. After I had put my clothes in a neat pile, I turned the water onto hot and jumped in. The water felt amazing over my naked body. Once I had finished I wrapped the towel around me and looked in the mirror.

“Star do you think we can trust him?” I asked her. She mumbled something incoherent. I closed my eyes and looked for her in my mind. She was curled up dozing off. I never even thought how much energy it must have took her to do what she did.

“I am sorry Star but thank you for everything.” I told her. I knew she would be there if I needed her but at the moment, she needed rest.

After opening my eyes, I get dressed and took my dirty clothes back to my room. I put them in my now full laundry bag. “I really need to do some washing.” I said to myself.

I put my now damp hair up into a bun and headed down to the kitchen. I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I don’t know if I could actually trust him, but he gave me my pad back. Maybe I wasn’t alone after all. I made it to the kitchen by 5:26. I must have been in the shower longer than I thought. Nevertheless, I knew what I was doing today so I would still be done on time.

I got all the ingredients out and started placing them into the mixer. This thing was huge. Twice the size of the others. I could make double batches in one go.
