Lahat ng Kabanata ng Once Banished, Now A Luna : Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

DAVID Lillie had disappeared before I opened my eyes, but I can’t say I didn’t expect it. I slept for the rest of the day, and had to get ready for our birthday party - which was to be held the next night. Left for me, I would have canceled, but I didn’t want mother to worry. I wanted to keep everything about Jace under wraps until I got to the bottom of what was going on. The following day passed by quickly, and before I knew it, it was time to party. My mother had made me promise that I would stay away from the palace. In fact, she made both me and Daniel promise. Somehow, it made me feel like Darwin was her favorite child. But then, what was the surprise in the whole party if he was going to join in taking care of it? I looked out for Lillie, but I didn’t see her around.Something made me feel like she was purposely staying away from me for some reason. And maybe it was for the better if she didn’t come before me again. I didn’t even feel guilty about what had happened the nigh

DAVID“Good morning, Alpha David,” I heard two voices greet. The blinds were immediately opened. Fuck, I wasn’t even sure we shut them down yesterday. I grabbed her waist and grabbed her closer to me. She moaned, as I managed to open my eyes. The amount of drinks I had the day before were having a serious effect on me and my head was hurting a great deal. I could make out the figures of Darwin and Daniel. I looked down at Lillie immediately to check if she was properly covered. I knew that she wouldn’t have liked being so exposed in front of my brothers. “What is it?” I snapped. “Couldn’t you knock?”Darwin opened his mouth to say something but Daniel raised his hand, showing that he was going to handle it. “We have been at your door for the past thirty minutes knocking,” he announced. “Look how red our knuckles have become. We thought you had committed suicide without giving anybody any heads up.”I frowned, before managing to get up. “Looks like you both had the time of your liv

DAVID“Where the hell is my sister?” Logan asked, as he burst into my office.I decided that I was too tired to even go to the office. I guess that was the effect of spending the night with someone as energetic as Lillie. I had walked through the palace under the pretext of trying to get my head straight but I didn’t even see her clearing the plates after breakfast the way she does on a normal day. I had seen her room mates doing their usual chores. She just wasn’t there. I figured out that she was probably hiding from me. Everything that Daniel had told me in the morning was echoing in my head even if I was trying to keep it at the back of my head. I stared at Logan from head to toe. He was still putting on his washed up clothes. There were bits of soil in his fingernails. He had obviously been working in the garden or something. “What do you mean? I thought she was with you,” I told him gesturing at him. “And couldn’t you knock?”His nose was flared as he stared at me. He finally

DARLAI was constantly chewing inside my mouth. All the flesh was bare there. Very soon, people were going to be seeing all of my teeth on display. The thought was funny, but I couldn’t laugh. I was pacing around the room. I headed out for the balcony as my room as becoming stuffy. The one thing that was constantly in my hand was still there. My stuffed giraffe. I walked around my large balcony as I held on to it. It had been a day since Lillie had gone missing. People might have been saying that she was barely important. But there the pack was. Coming to a stand still because a so called slave was missing. Dave was worried. He hadn’t eaten for the past day and neither have the other two. I didn’t know if they were eating because Lillie was missing or because none of them could eat if the others haven’t eaten. Daniel was constantly singing that she had run away. I knew that she had struck a deal with Dave to get Logan his freedom. She didn’t seem like the kind of person that would r

DAVID’S POVLogan hurried into the room. “You called for me,” he answered. It didn’t even take him three minutes to walk into the palace. We all hadn’t eaten since we found out that Lillie was missing but it had the most effect on him. He had bones peeking out from his neck at that point. I had begged him to eat. I knew that Lillie would have wanted me to take good care of him. And I was trying to do just that if he didn’t hate me so much. “I have news for you,” I said. His eyes widened immediately. “What news? Have you found my sister?”“There is a condition attached to it,” I announced, with my hands behind my back as I walked around him, like my prey. “What condition? Name it and tell me the news already.”“You have to eat first.” He growled, thinking I was joking about the whole thing.“Listen,” he said, walking up to me quickly. “I’m not going to join you in your stupid play while you try to prove that you’re the perfect gentleman in front of my sister. That trick is not goin
