Runaway Almost Luna

Joy found in hell

"You got the 'Luna' shot didn't you?" A bucket was tossed at my feet. "You will need to drink as well" the voice said.

"Um yes I was given the shot, who are you?" I asked, peering into the pitch black... wherever we are. Nothing.. Quiet is all that answered me. I couldn't use my wolf sight, I could not feel my Naomi at all. " I don't know where we are, or who you are. Im sorry.. How long have you been here...where ever here is." Again silence. Tears started to well up in my eyes. I need to get out of here, I thought. I hear something scratch along the floor coming towards me, and a very very tiny flickering of light. A petite woman with very light hair and purple eyes appeared. She was carrying a candle in a bowl and dragging a chair with a bucket on it. She smiled at me. "Hello, my name is Joy, which in this place seems hilarious but I am from the Red dawn pack. You need some water." She put the chair down and brought a cup up out of the bucket full of water, handed it to me saying "Drink slowly, you have been here a while. The drug mix makes your mouth super dry." I took a drink, the cool water felt so good. I started to gulp it down when I remembered what Joy had said. I spit some of it back into the cup. "Joy, your name is perfect for this place. Mine is Allie. How long have you been here?" "Oh.. I think a month? Maybe less? I met my mate and it went down hill from there. Apparently he doesn't want a true mate."

She took the cup from me and took a sip. She put the bucket down on the ground and took a seat. "So I am not sure where we are, but they have not drugged me since I got here. They bring food once a day, so we need to ration it. I have straw and two blankets, this chair and the candle. They gave you one blanket, so we will make you a better bed with my straw. Can you stand? I don't like being near the door, they like to throw it open when they enter. Joy said looking nervously at the door. "Oh, we can move" I tried to stand and my legs shook really bad. Joy giggled "Weak as a toddler pup” She put her arms around me, and helped me walk around a wall and across the room to her bed. The room lit up more as we moved along, it was clean and there was a toilet, and sink. By joys bed, she had another bowl with half a roll and pear in it. “Here,” she said, “lay down, I will get you some of this fruit and more water. When he shoved that sh** in me, I was so cotton mouthed and dehydrated it was not funny.” “Wait he did that to you?! Who's he? You said they earlier.” “My mate, Alpha Lawrence.”

Sometime later, we heard feet come down what sounded like wooden stairs. Then we heard the rusty hinges on the metal door creak open. Quick light steps and a shinning light lit up our room. “Luna, oh good you both are in here. Quick heres some herbs, hid them. Here is your water and food, I was able to sneek a little more down since there is two of you now. Alpha said not to give more, but he did not stay to see the bowl.” Maggie very quietly said. “Thank you Maggie, I am trying to help her heal, her wolf still isn't responding yet.” Said Joy. Maggie teared up, “I need to go back upstairs, I will try to get more, and bring it down tomorrow.” Maggie disappeared just as quietly and quickly as she came.

Joy took some of the herbs, smelled them and stripped only a few of their leaves, started to chew on them. She then lifted her blankets cot up and hid the rest under the straw bed. She finished chewing the herbs into a paste, and pressed it on the wound in my neck, “It's going to burn but its not bad, leave it alone until it itches without the burn.” She was not kidding, it felt like she dropped the candle on me. “Ow but ok…” “Allie, when Naomi wakes up, please tell her to mask her scent, they need to think she's still out or gone from you. We have no way of knowing how much he gave you. Tomorrow either Lawrence or the guards will come down in the morning.” Joy looked fearfully at me. “How do you know? And how do you know what time it is?” I replied. Joy looked towards the front of our room. “Well Maggie brings down dinner-style foods, dinner rolls, pieces of roasted meat and fruit. Lawrence likes having roasted meats for dinner if you had not noticed. Any other style of foods is for lunch.” She said. I thought about it. She was not wrong, if I wanted Italian, Chinese or French style of food, it was always served at lunch. The dinner always consisted of roasted beef or pork chops, dinner rolls and some sort of hearty potato dish at night. I tried to change it with Mrs balk, and I was firmly told to go read the Luna handbook. The OCD over meals was quite boring, even after a week. “Good point”

We made a bed of straw from what we could off of Joys. I put my blanket on it. And laid down, trying to take a short nap while the herbs did their work. I fell asleep, and what felt just like a minute. “Allie..im feeling better” Naomi whispered, “Oh thank goddess, I thought i lost you.” I teared up and sighed. “Your wolf reached out? Allies wolf, please for both your safety, conceal your scent. You will know when to appear, but for right now, heal and then heal Allie.” Joy covered me up with one of her blankets and blew out the candle. “Get some rest”

“I love you Allie, we will get our revenge on him.” “I love you Naomi, we will get our revenge for everyone on him.”
