The Rejected Luna
The girl with no wolf
Chapter 66
Vishal's Stance
I had dinner with Karen, Alpha Tommy, Scott, my parents, Ella and Ray. They all came over to the pack house and we shared a table. It was a good bonding time, and the only way I could reassure them that I was fine.
Karen insisted on calling Ray and Ella, even though I'd told her over and over again that there was no need for that.
When they got her message, they left their pack and raced down here. Ella wouldn't stop fussing over me, asking me repeatedly if I was really okay.
Mother cried a lot too after seeing my wounds and scars, it was almost impossible to get her to quiet down.
All through the dinner, she didn't stop glancing at me or spoon-feeding me, or asking me if any part of my body was hurting. It was kind of cringy, but then, that's mothers and their unending doting on their children, no matter how grown we are.
Soon, the dinner was over and Mother offered to clear the table, alongside Karen. Father was seated and discussing a few things with Alpha Tommy.
Scott, Ella, and I excused ourselves and took a walk on the lonely, dark street. Ella and Ray were heading back to their pack, so Scott and I thought of seeing them off.
They had a lot of questions for me and I had so many unsaid words, there were a lot of things I was itching to tell them too, but couldn't say them back at the dining table.
I didn't want to upset Mother any further, so I couldn't tell them In detail all the misery I had to go through at the hands of the Alpha King.
But now, that it was just us, I went ahead to answer their unending questions, giving them every little bit of detail they wanted to know.
"They took me to an old building in the middle of the forest. It was the Alpha King's dungeon where he locked up his offenders. There are others locked up there, I was the only lucky one to escape," I said to Ella, who just asked me where I was locked up.
"Richard has gone out of hand. He's like a complete monster now. I can't believe he has a dungeon!" Ray shuddered at the news.
"There are so many things about the Alpha King that you know nothing of, Ray. He was your best friend, and that made you completely trust him. You didn't bother to find out his secrets," Ella said irritatedly, linking her arms with Ray's.
"Well, baby, you just said it yourself. He was my best friend, so it's only natural that I trusted him. But I did know he had secrets, what I didn't know is that they were this shitty,"
"The Alpha King is a monster. I can only imagine the torture he's putting Jane through. I can't wait to get my mate away from him," I said.
I miss Jane so much. Words can't explain just how much I miss her. There's nothing on my mind now other than how to rescue her from the Alpha King. I need her by my side, I need to end the torture she's going through at the hands of the Alpha King.
"Yeah, we should find out where Jane is. The last time I saw her, the Alpha King had her tied up after fucking her…" Ella got cut off when Ray clamped her mouth with his hands, whispering in her ear for her to shut up.
"What did you just say?" I asked, going instantly pale at the words she blurted out. What the hell did she just say?
"Nah, don't worry about it, man. It's nothing…" Ray said, forcing a smile to try to convince me. But it didn't work, I heard Ella clearly and the only thing I'm asking is that she repeats herself.
"Don't you lie to me, dude. I heard your mate. What the hell did she say the Alpha King did to Jane?!"
They both exchanged glances but still didn't say a word to each other. I was getting more pissed off by their silence and hesitation.
"Tell me!" I yelled angrily, and Ella flinched, while Ray sighed.
"Chill, man," Scott said, tapping my shoulder. This was the first word he has said since we came out. He's always been a man of few words, more like an introvert.
