Chapter 28
Reign’S POV
Pain.
Pain is all I feel as the guards drag me into the dungeon. I can’t control the tears that keep spilling down my cheeks and all I wish right now is for dead to take me.
The silver prison.
That’s the last place I want to be in my life. Only the smell of silver alone makes me sick and right now I’ve got bruises all over my body and the least mistake will get me poison.
I don’t even want to think of the torture I’m going to be getting all night.
This is just history repeating itself.
Me being accused of something I’m innocent of and getting thrown into the Silver prison according my mate’s orders.
This is just crazy. Why did I stop in the first place?
I went out there to commit suicide, I wanted to kill myself and end this miserable life of mine, but I couldn’t do it.
The Moon goddess won’t let me.
I tried to stab myself but the knife kept falling off, I tried to slit my wrist but it didn’t work, the Moon goddess kept protecting me and right now I can’t help but wonder why she wants me alive.
I don’t understand why she won’t just let me die and redeem myself form all this suffering and torture.
“Get in there!” One of the guards order as he throws me to the grown in the silver prison.
Silver.
The entire place reeks of silver and I feel sick already. I can’t stand the smell of Silver at all and right now I’m so weak the I can’t even defend myself.
“You have the nerve to try to escape form our Alpha, you are going to pay for this” One of the guards swear and I just crawl behind and curl up myself at the center of the room, making sure none of the silver I see smeared around, gets in contact with my wounds.
“I think she needs to be punished for her crime.” One of the guards spits out angrily as he turns to the others. “Prepare the torture room, we are going to give you something to cry about right now.” He commands and I just bow my head down and cry harder.
Drowning.
Electrocuting and many others.
That’s going to be the order of my night, all orchestrated by my mate.
My oh my!
“This is going to be so much fun!” One of the guards exclaims as he stoops by myside and the moment he tries to touch me, I spit on him and without warning, he hits me hard across the cheek.
“You wretched idiot! I will make you sure they torture the living hell out of you. Murderer!” He spits out furiously as he rises up and leaves.
The only thing I can do is cry.
This is so unfair. I don’t deserve this at all. Everyone is leaving freely but I never have.
Since I was born, I was locked away from the rest of the world and ever since I was allowed to live as a free werewolf, my life has been nothing but a living hell and I can’t help but feel sorry for myself.
I have said this before, and I am saying it again, I am innocent of everything they have ever accused me of and I don’t deserve to be treated this way.
“It’s time!” One the guards announces from the door and I quickly rise on my feet before he grabs my hand that’s already hurting as fuck.
“Now that’s a good girl” He says with a sickening smile as he holds my left hand anyways and I whimper in pain as he drags me all the way to the torture room that looks all too familiar.
Weeks ago I was tied to a chair in this same room and tortured with Alpha Hardin watching and I also witnessed the murderer of my very dear mentor.
Those awful memories replay on my mind and I just burst into tears as they drag me to the same chair and tie me to it.
“Please, let me go!” I cry in agony but they don’t hear me out. “I wasn’t trying to escape, I swear”
“Come on Reign, it’s not like you ever accept your crime. Just stay quiet and enjoy the torture. You deserve it”
“Please…” I cry as I watch them bring a bowl of water and place before me.
“Get ready to have a big drink” He says with a wicked smirk plastered at the side of his lips and I just close my eyes and let out a heavy sigh of exasperation as more tears spill down my cheeks.
I’m going to get properly drowned for real.
After several hours of being tortured and made fun of, I have no iota of strength in me. The guards drag me around and torture me to their hearts content and there’s nothing I can do.
I have cried so much that I can feel that my lacrimal glands are no longer functional cuz they no longer secrete tears. My eyes are bulging red, my face is equally red and my head is spinning like a rollercoaster.
All I can feel is pain all over body. My bones, my muscles, every part of my body hurts. I just wanna die.
“What are you all doing? Get away from her!” A firm voice shouts from the door and when I look up to see who it is, I am relieved to see a very furious looking Beta Miguel marching into the torture room. He comes over to guards who are trying to hold me in place and jerks them off me like the weighed nothing and the next thing I see is the men flying against the wall. He turns to the others who are now panicking and does same to them and I just let out a heavy sigh of relief.
Finally someone has come to my rescue.
“Who gave you orders to torture her?” Beta Miguel demands and they just stare at him speechless. All I can see in their eyes is fear.
“Answer me!” Beta Miguel demands in a frightening voice that causes me to tremble as well.
“Alpha Hardin asked us to bring her here, so we figured…”
“Figured what?” Beta Miguel shouts yet again and I just cry more.
I hate being around these men. They do nothing but scare the hell out of me with their loud voices.
“We figured he’d want us to torture her”
“You bloody morons! Get out of my sight before I loose my temper and commit sacrilege. Out!!!” He orders and the rest of the guards rush out of the room.
“Luna!” He calls as he rushes over to me and carries me bridal style in his arms.
There’s a lot of things I want to protest about right now, like fact that he just called me Luna and also the fact that he’s carrying me in his arms but I don’t have the strength. I just cling onto him as he walks out of the room into another dungeon room, but it’s not the silver prison. Once he puts me down, I crawl to the wall and lean by it as I let out gentle sobs.
“I’m so sorry about that Luna, I didn’t know the guards were going to torture you, I would have gotten here earlier.”
“It’s okay. I’m just glad that you were there to save me”This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“If it were up to me, I would have taken you back to your room, but I can’t do that because the Alpha ordered for you to be brought here and only he alone is able to change his decision. He is my Alpha and I can’t go against him. Nevertheless, I’m going to make sure he changes his mind, you are not going to spend the night here Luna, I promise you that” He promised and I just smile weakly at him
“Saving me is already more than enough Beta Miguel, just let him do whatever he wants with me”
“I won’t, I won’t let him do that. Just hang in here for a while I go talk some sense into him. You have to get out of here tonight!” He says as he takes off his thick, warm over-all and puts on my body and rises up. “Keep warm for the time being, I’ll be right back” Then he bows down and exits the room.
He actually just bowed down for me.
Wow!
He really does have a dead wish.
I put on the jacket he had put on my body and cling onto it. The room is so cold and the bare floor I’m currently seated on is not making matters any better for me.
All I wish is for the Moon goddess to touch Alpha Hardin’s heart and let him release me. I really do not want to spend another night in a dungeon.
I hate it here!
