Luna's Past

Chapter 1 The sound of chains, and voices in a distance. My head hurts, what happened? I try to open my eyes, but I can only see out of one, my face feels like it's burning. Where, where am I? Looking around, this place kind of looked like a dungeon. Am I dreaming? My body hurt like hell, and I wanted to vomit, but I don’t know if I can without passing out again. The last thing I remember was stabbing someone in the neck with a knife and then darkness. Did I kill someone? “Finally,” a male voice muttered. “I thought I might have hit you too hard,” he mused, grabbing my face. “How does it feel to be defenseless, Luna?” he cackled. His dirty complexion was kind of weird; maybe he was homeless, and I was his prisoner. But how did he survive if he was the one that I stabbed in the neck? “What, what do you want? Why have you brought me here?” I wanted to beg him to let me go but I know it's not going to do any good. When he took a step towards me, I felt like the world shifted a little, maybe this is all a dream and I am going to wake up from it. “For ransom for your mate, I am sure he is eager to find you. He isnt going to get you back though, we’re going to make him think he is going to but I am going to rape and kill you before he has a chance to do anything.” his eyes are dark and sinister. “Dont worry, your wolf won't be able to help you.” “Wolf? What are you talking about?” I spat at him. If he’s going to kill me, then I have nothing to lose, and I am going to give it to him good. “Go ahead and do what you will, my mate, as you call him, will stop you from hurting me any more than you’ve already done.” I still don’t understand what he is talking about; this all has to be a dream. Yes, it has to be otherwise I am with a crazy man and I am going to die soon. I am scared, but maybe if I don’t show him, I am afraid things will change. “Oh, is that a fact?” he cackled as he punched me in my stomach and then slapped me around a few times. I could taste blood in my mouth, I guess this is what death is like right before the light, right? I can feel his eyes dancing around my body. If he’s going to do anything, I hope I don’t feel it. I don’t want to be raped by this crazed killer, I hope whoever he is talking about does come and find me, otherwise, I am dead. “So Luna,” he said, coming closer to me. “Are you willing to die slowly? I mean, I could make this painful for you and kill you fast, or I can make it painful for you and make it slow.” “I don’t know why you think I am a Luna, whatever that is, but do whatever, eventually the pain will die off and I won't feel anything.” “I smell her all over you, so you did pretty well to fake your death. I am surprised your Alpha hasn't found you. I found you easily,” he mused. “But then again, he’s already moved on and has a piece on his arm, it's been five years, so.” “Well, I am not her!” I growled. “So let me go before something bad happens to you and you regret doing something to someone you know nothing about.” “Well, your wolf cannot help you,” he snapped at me. “These chains,” he shook my wrists, as they were forced above my head. “Wolf’s Bane, she is getting weaker, but her smell is still strong,” he said, backing away from me. “Now the fun part,” he said, unzipping his jeans. “Aw, what the f**k,” he growled. “I guess we’re going to have to wait to have this kind of fun until I get back.” I didn’t say anything, I don’t want him anywhere near me, and am glad he is leaving me. I have to figure out how to get out of here, but I don’t know how I am going to free myself. I tried to look above my head, but the room began to spin, I don’t know if I am going to make it through this, even though I know he is gone but for how long? Pulling down on my hands, the chains seem to be molding around my wrists. I don’t know what kind of metal it is, but it's starting to hurt. Maybe it's because I’ve been sitting here, I don’t even know how long. I still don’t understand why he called me Luna, what is a Luna? He said I had a mate, does he mean some kind of husband? Because I haven't been married, and well I am a virgin so I don’t think that is going to work. He has me confused with someone else, maybe he does realize that and he ran away knowing the police are going to be here soon. “You shouldn’t try and get loose,” a man said. I couldn’t see him. “I’ve been trying for years, but the chains are as smart as they keep you here.” “I don’t care, I am not going to stay here. This man isnt going to do what he wants to me.” I said, trying to stay calm, but I felt like I was going to pass out. “I need to get out of here before he does something that he is going to regret.” “He’s a wolf, he knows what he is doing, and you aren't going to get out of here without him knowing about it,” he sighed. “He is going to torture you until you die.” “He thinks he is going to that, but I have a feeling someone is going to come and save me. I don’t know why I am here, but I am sure it can be explained.” “You’re a wolf, there is nothing to explain why you are a prisoner to the Rogue King, he wants you as a piece to play with, and then he is going to kill you or let his other mutts have fun with you before they kill you.” “I am not a wolf, I don’t know why you or he thinks that,” I said shaking my head, I was trying to stay awake but the darkness was calling to me, I knew if I went to sleep he was going to come and do what he wants and there won't be anything I can do. I know I am going to have to struggle to stay awake, but if he ends up doing what he wants to me, then I guess it's something that happens. But right now, I need to figure out how to get lost so I can at least sit down and get my head straight. “Whose Luna are you?” the man asked. “I don’t even know what that means. I’m like nineteen, so if it's a husband, then I am not married, I’ve tried to tell him that, and he doesn’t want to listen, so I don’t even know what the hell he wants with me.” “I can smell something on you, but I’ve never smelled it before,” he said. “I wish there was a way I could help you get away, but I don’t think there is.” “Dont worry, I will figure this out, maybe this is all a bad dream and I will wake up from it, and the rest will be history.” I sighed. I hope I wake up from this. I think this is the most pain I’ve felt, and I don’t even know why I am here. “If you think this isnt real, it's very real. If you’re not a wolf, then yes, you are going to feel the pain that he is going to give you, and there isnt much you can do about it,” he kind of laughed. “But you are a wolf or have a wolf coming soon, she is close.” Again, calling me a wolf? What the hell? I feel like I am in crazy land, “I don’t think I am a wolf, there are no such things as human wolves. Animals, yes, but humans?” I laughed. “At least this is making some of the pain less, but again I think this is all a dream, I am going to wake up back at my parent's house and everything is going to be fine.” I sighed, I hope so anyway. Looking up, I felt sick again, but I had to figure out how to get my wrists out of these chains. They are hurting me more and more, and part of me wants to cry out in pain, but I know my captor wants that to happen, and it's not going to make him release me or take pity on me. “Come on you really think this pain is a dream? In dreams, you don’t feel pain, or at least not this bad.” he kept talking but the rest of what he said didn’t matter because I was not going to let him make me think I was not dreaming. This is a dream. “Come on, I have to stay awake,” I said out loud. I didn’t think I was going to make it through whatever this demon man was going to do to me, but I knew I had to try. But darkness consumed me.
